Product Description
PGP-4008 is a specific P-glycoprotein (Pgp) inhibitor. When administered in combination with Doxorubicin, PGP-4008 inhibits tumor growth in a mouse syngeneic Pgp-mediated multidrug resistance (MDR) solid tumor model.
PGP-4008 (CAS#: 365565-02-2) is a selective and potent inhibitor of P-glycoprotein (P-gp) from the dihydropyrroloquinoline class. It does not affect the activity of multidrug resistance-related protein 1 (MRP1). PGP-4008 is effective in vitro and, when delivered intraperitoneally, inhibits tumor growth when given with doxorubicin in a mouse syngeneic P-gp-mediated multidrug resistance (MDR) solid tumor model. The compound has potential applications in overcoming drug resistance in cancers such as leukemia, breast cancer, and lung cancer.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
The primary target of PGP-4008 is P-glycoprotein (P-gp), also known as multidrug resistance protein 1 (MDR1) or ABCB1. P-gp is an ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter that functions as an efflux pump, actively transporting a wide range of xenobiotics and chemotherapeutic drugs out of cells. Overexpression of P-gp is a major mechanism of multidrug resistance in cancer cells. PGP-4008 acts as a selective and potent inhibitor of P-gp, blocking its efflux function and allowing chemotherapeutic drugs to accumulate in cancer cells. The compound shows selectivity for P-gp over MRP1.
ln Vitro
In vitro, PGP-4008 is a selective and potent P-gp inhibitor that does not affect the activity of MRP1. By inhibiting P-gp-mediated drug efflux, the compound increases the intracellular accumulation of chemotherapeutic agents such as doxorubicin. This potentiation of drug activity can overcome P-gp-mediated multidrug resistance in cancer cells. PGP-4008 is effective in vitro, demonstrating its ability to block P-gp function in cell-based assays.
ln Vivo
In vivo, PGP-4008 inhibits tumor growth when administered in combination with doxorubicin in a mouse syngeneic P-gp-mediated multidrug resistance (MDR) solid tumor model. When delivered intraperitoneally, the compound enhances the anti-tumor efficacy of doxorubicin. This demonstrates the compound's ability to overcome P-gp-mediated drug resistance in vivo. PGP-4008 has potential applications in overcoming drug resistance in cancers such as leukemia, breast cancer, and lung cancer.
Enzyme Assay
For P-gp inhibitors, standard cell-free assays involve measuring the ATPase activity of recombinant P-gp in membrane preparations. The compound's ability to stimulate or inhibit P-gp ATPase activity is measured by detecting inorganic phosphate release. Alternatively, radioligand binding assays using [³H]-labeled P-gp substrates or inhibitors can be performed to assess binding affinity.
Cell Assay
For P-gp inhibitors, standard cellular assays involve treatment of P-gp-overexpressing cancer cell lines (e.g., Caco-2, MDCK-MDR1, or drug-resistant cancer cells) with the test compound in the presence of a fluorescent P-gp substrate (e.g., rhodamine 123, calcein-AM) or a radiolabeled chemotherapeutic drug. The accumulation of the substrate or drug in cells is measured by flow cytometry or scintillation counting to assess P-gp inhibition.
Animal Protocol
For in vivo evaluation of P-gp inhibitors, standard animal models include syngeneic or xenograft tumor models using P-gp-overexpressing drug-resistant cancer cell lines. The compound is typically administered intraperitoneally or orally in combination with a chemotherapeutic drug (e.g., doxorubicin) for 2-4 weeks. Tumor growth, drug accumulation in tumors, and survival are assessed. PGP-4008 has been evaluated in a mouse syngeneic P-gp-mediated MDR solid tumor model.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
PGP-4008 has a molecular weight of 393.5 and formula C26H23N3O. It has a purity of ≥93%. As a small molecule with moderate lipophilicity, it would be expected to have reasonable cell permeability and oral bioavailability. The compound is typically administered intraperitoneally in in vivo studies. Comprehensive pharmacokinetic studies would be required for therapeutic development.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Detailed toxicology data for PGP-4008 is not provided in the available sources. As a research compound targeting P-gp, standard preclinical toxicology would be required for therapeutic development. The compound's selectivity for P-gp over MRP1 suggests a favorable specificity profile. However, potential effects on other ABC transporters or normal tissues expressing P-gp (e.g., intestine, blood-brain barrier, liver) would need to be evaluated. The compound is for research use only and not for therapeutic applications.
