Search for MDR modulators: Design, syntheses and evaluations of N-substituted acridones for interactions with p-glycoprotein and Mg(2+). Bioorganic & medicinal chemistry [Bioorg Med Chem] Journal article

By combining the structural features of acridone based anti-cancer drugs (like amsacrine) and MDR modulator propafenone, acridones with hydroxyl amine chain at N-10 have been designed and synthesized. These molecules exhibit appreciable interactions with p-gp and Mg(2+) indicating their suitability to modulate p-gp mediated multi drug resistance.
