Product Description
Biricodar dicitrate is a novel and potent synthetic pipecolinate analogue
Biricodar dicitrate (VX-710 dicitrate, CAS# 174254-13-8) is a small-molecule inhibitor of P-glycoprotein (P-gp, ABCB1) and other ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters that mediate multidrug resistance (MDR) in cancer cells. It has a molecular formula of C₃₈H₄₆N₂O₁₆ and a molecular weight of 786.78 g/mol. Biricodar dicitrate is a derivative of biricodar (VX-710) that inhibits the efflux of chemotherapeutic agents from cancer cells, thereby reversing multidrug resistance and restoring the efficacy of chemotherapy. The compound has been studied for its potential in combination with chemotherapy for the treatment of drug-resistant cancers. Biricodar dicitrate is a valuable research tool for studying multidrug resistance and ABC transporter function.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Biricodar dicitrate targets P-glycoprotein (P-gp, ABCB1) and other ABC transporters, including multidrug resistance-associated protein 1 (MRP1, ABCC1) and breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP, ABCG2). By binding to these transporters, biricodar dicitrate inhibits the efflux of chemotherapeutic agents from cancer cells, increasing intracellular drug concentrations and restoring the efficacy of chemotherapy. The compound's inhibition of ABC transporters makes it a valuable tool for studying multidrug resistance and for developing strategies to overcome chemotherapy resistance.
ln Vitro
In vitro, biricodar dicitrate inhibits P-glycoprotein (P-gp) and other ABC transporters, reversing multidrug resistance in cancer cell lines. In cell-based assays, biricodar dicitrate treatment results in increased intracellular accumulation of chemotherapeutic agents, such as doxorubicin or paclitaxel, and restored sensitivity to these agents. The compound's effects on drug accumulation and cytotoxicity are assessed using fluorescence-based assays or cell viability assays. These studies confirm the compound's mechanism of action as an ABC transporter inhibitor.
ln Vivo
In vivo, biricodar dicitrate has been studied for its potential in combination with chemotherapy for the treatment of drug-resistant cancers. By inhibiting ABC transporters, the compound can increase the efficacy of chemotherapeutic agents in animal models of cancer. Biricodar dicitrate has been evaluated in preclinical and clinical studies, where it demonstrates the ability to reverse multidrug resistance. Comprehensive in vivo efficacy studies are needed to fully characterize its therapeutic potential.
Enzyme Assay
In vitro transporter assays for biricodar dicitrate involve measuring the inhibition of P-glycoprotein-mediated efflux of fluorescent or radiolabeled substrates. Membrane vesicles or cells expressing P-gp are incubated with the substrate and varying concentrations of biricodar dicitrate. The accumulation of the substrate is measured, and the IC₅₀ for inhibition is calculated. These assays confirm the compound's mechanism of action as an ABC transporter inhibitor.
Cell Assay
In vitro cell-based assays for biricodar dicitrate evaluate its effects on drug accumulation and cytotoxicity. Drug-resistant cancer cells are cultured and treated with biricodar dicitrate in the presence of chemotherapeutic agents. Intracellular drug accumulation is measured using fluorescence or mass spectrometry. Cell viability is assessed using MTT or CellTiter-Glo assays. These assays confirm the compound's functional activity in reversing multidrug resistance.
Animal Protocol
In vivo animal experiments for biricodar dicitrate have been conducted in mouse xenograft models of drug-resistant cancer. Tumor-bearing mice are treated with biricodar dicitrate in combination with chemotherapeutic agents. Tumor growth is monitored by caliper measurements, and tumor growth inhibition is calculated. Pharmacokinetic studies are conducted to determine the compound's half-life, clearance, and tissue distribution. Comprehensive in vivo studies are available from clinical development.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Pharmacokinetic (PK) data for biricodar dicitrate are available from preclinical and clinical studies. The compound has a molecular weight of 786.78 g/mol. It is typically administered intravenously. The compound's half-life, bioavailability, and excretion profile have been characterized in the context of its development for reversing multidrug resistance. Comprehensive PK data are available from pharmaceutical studies.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
The toxicity profile of biricodar dicitrate has been evaluated in preclinical and clinical studies. The compound is generally well-tolerated at therapeutic doses. Common side effects may include gastrointestinal disturbances and myelosuppression. The compound should be used under medical supervision. Comprehensive toxicological studies are available from clinical development. Biricodar dicitrate is for research use only.

Additional Infomation
Biricodar dicitrate is a dicitrate of a synthetic piperidine ester derivative with potential chemosensitizing activity. Biricodar directly binds to and inhibits the activity of the plasma membrane drug efflux pump P-glycoprotein (P-gp) and multidrug resistance protein 1 (MRP-1), which may lead to increased intracellular accumulation and retention of cytotoxic drugs.
