IC50 >100 µM against MCF-7
Potency The most potent compound, Euphosorophane A (1), possessed many advantages, including (1) high potency (EC50 = 92.68 ± 18.28 nM) in reversing P-gp-mediated resistance to doxorubicin (DOX), low cytotoxicity, and a high therapeutic index, (2) potency in reversing resistance to other cytotoxic agents associated with MDR, and (3) inhibition of P-gp-mediated Rhodamine123 (Rh123) efflux function in MCF-7/ADR cells.
Cell line/ mice model MCF-7/ADR
Additional information  The results of the Western blot analysis indicated that the multidrug resistance (MDR) reversal induced by 1 was not due to the inhibiton of P-gp expression. Compound 1 stimulated P-gp-ATPase activity and caused the dose-dependent inhibition of DOX transport activity.
