Front Cell Dev Biol 2023; 11:1190266. [PMID: 37476154 PMCID: PMC10354371 DOI: 10.3389/fcell.2023.1190266] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/20/2023] [Accepted: 06/22/2023] [Indexed: 07/22/2023] Open
Abstract
Recent studies have demonstrated that stem cells have attracted much attention due to their special abilities of proliferation, differentiation and self-renewal, and are of great significance in regenerative medicine and anti-aging research. Hence, finding natural medicines that intervene the fate specification of stem cells has become a priority. Ginsenosides, the key components of natural botanical ginseng, have been extensively studied for versatile effects, such as regulating stem cells function and resisting aging. This review aims to summarize recent progression regarding the impact of ginsenosides on the behavior of adult stem cells, particularly from the perspective of proliferation, differentiation and self-renewal.

[PMID: 37092502 PMCID: PMC10123636 DOI: 10.3390/jox13020014] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/02/2023] [Revised: 03/13/2023] [Accepted: 03/21/2023] [Indexed: 03/29/2023] Open
Abstract
The role of intestinal barrier homeostasis in an individual’s general well-being has been widely addressed by the scientific community. Colorectal cancer is among the illnesses that most affect this biological barrier. While chemotherapy is the first choice to treat this type of cancer, multidrug resistance (MDR) is the major setback against the commonly used drugs, with the ATP-binding cassette transporters (ABC transporters) being the major players. The role of P-glycoprotein (P-gp), multidrug resistance protein 1 (MRP1), or breast cancer resistance protein (ABCG2) in the efflux of chemotherapeutic drugs is well described in cancer cells, highlighting these proteins as interesting druggable targets to reverse MDR, decrease drug dosage, and consequently undesired toxicity. Natural products, especially phytochemicals, have a wide diversity of chemical structures, and some particular classes, such as phenolic acids, flavonoids, or pentacyclic triterpenoids, have been reported as inhibitors of P-gp, MRP1, and ABCG2, being able to sensitize cancer cells to chemotherapy drugs. Nevertheless, ABC transporters play a vital role in the cell’s defense against xenobiotics, and some phytochemicals have also been shown to induce the transporters’ activity. A balance must be obtained between xenobiotic efflux in non-tumor cells and bioaccumulation of chemotherapy drugs in cancer cells, in which ABC transporters are essential and natural products play a pivotal role that must be further analyzed. This review summarizes the knowledge concerning the nomenclature and function of ABC-transporters, emphasizing their role in the intestinal barrier cells. In addition, it also focuses on the role of natural products commonly found in food products, e.g., phytochemicals, as modulators of ABC-transporter activity and expression, which are promising nutraceutical molecules to formulate new drug combinations to overcome multidrug resistance.

Why Do Dietary Flavonoids Have a Promising Effect as Enhancers of Anthracyclines? Hydroxyl Substituents, Bioavailability and Biological Activity. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 24:ijms24010391. [PMID: 36613834 PMCID: PMC9820151 DOI: 10.3390/ijms24010391] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/02/2022] [Revised: 12/20/2022] [Accepted: 12/22/2022] [Indexed: 12/28/2022] Open
Abstract
Anthracyclines currently play a key role in the treatment of many cancers, but the limiting factor of their use is the widespread phenomenon of drug resistance and untargeted toxicity. Flavonoids have pleiotropic, beneficial effects on human health that, apart from antioxidant activity, are currently considered small molecules-starting structures for drug development and enhancers of conventional therapeutics. This paper is a review of the current and most important data on the participation of a selected series of flavonoids: chrysin, apigenin, kaempferol, quercetin and myricetin, which differ in the presence of an additional hydroxyl group, in the formation of a synergistic effect with anthracycline antibiotics. The review includes a characterization of the mechanism of action of flavonoids, as well as insight into the physicochemical parameters determining their bioavailability in vitro. The crosstalk between flavonoids and the molecular activity of anthracyclines discussed in the article covers the most important common areas of action, such as (1) disruption of DNA integrity (genotoxic effect), (2) modulation of antioxidant response pathways, and (3) inhibition of the activity of membrane proteins responsible for the active transport of drugs and xenobiotics. The increase in knowledge about the relationship between the molecular structure of flavonoids and their biological effect makes it possible to more effectively search for derivatives with a synergistic effect with anthracyclines and to develop better therapeutic strategies in the treatment of cancer.

Abstract
Multidrug resistance protein 1 (MRP1/ABCC1) is an ATP-dependent efflux transporter, and responsible for the transport of a broad spectrum of xenobiotics, toxins, and physiological substrates across the plasma membrane. As an efflux pump, it plays a significant role in the absorption and disposition of drugs including anticancer drugs, antivirals, antimalarials, and antibiotics and their metabolites across physiological barriers in cells. MRP1 is also known to aid in the regulation of several physiological processes such as redox homeostasis, steroid metabolism, and tissue defense. However, its overexpression has been reported to be a key clinical marker associated with multidrug resistance (MDR) of several types of cancers including lung cancer, childhood neuroblastoma, breast and prostate carcinomas, often resulting in a higher risk of treatment failure and shortened survival rates in cancer patients. Aside MDR, overexpression of MRP1 is also implicated in the development of neurodegenerative and cardiovascular diseases. Due to the cellular importance of MRP1, the identification and biochemical/molecular characterization of modulators of MRP1 activity and expression levels are of key interest to cancer research and beyond. This review primarily aims at highlighting the physiological and pharmacological importance of MRP1, known MRP1 modulators, current challenges encountered, and the potential benefits of conducting further research on the MRP1 transporter.

Abstract
Cancer, a major public health problem, is one of the world's top leading causes of death. Common treatments for cancer include cytotoxic chemotherapy, surgery, targeted drugs, endocrine therapy, and immunotherapy. However, despite the outstanding achievements in cancer therapies during the last years, resistance to conventional chemotherapeutic agents and new targeted drugs is still the major challenge. In the present review, we explain the different mechanisms involved in cancer therapy and the detailed outlines of cancer drug resistance regarding multidrug resistance-associated proteins (MRPs) and their role in treatment failures by common chemotherapeutic agents. Further, different modulators of MRPs are presented. Finally, we outlined the models used to analyze MRP transporters and proposed a future impact that may set up a base or pave the way for many researchers to investigate the cancer MRP further.

Abstract
Axillary osmidrosis (AO) is a common chronic skin condition characterized by unpleasant body odors emanating from the armpits, and its aetiology is not fully understood. AO can seriously impair the psychosocial well-being of the affected individuals; however, no causal therapy has been established for it other than surgical treatment. Recent studies have revealed that human ATP-binding cassette transporter C11 (ABCC11) is an AO risk factor when it is expressed in the axillary apocrine glands-the sources of the offensive odors. Hence, identifying safe ways to inhibit ABCC11 may offer a breakthrough in treating AO. We herein screened for ABCC11-inhibitory activities in 34 natural products derived from plants cultivated for human consumption using an in vitro assay system to measure the ABCC11-mediated transport of radiolabeled dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEA-S-an ABCC11 substrate). The water extract of soybean (Glycine max) was found to exhibit the strongest transport inhibition. From this extract, via a fractionation approach, we successfully isolated and identified genistein, a soy isoflavone, as a novel ABCC11 inhibitor with a half-maximal inhibitory concentration value of 61.5 μM. Furthermore, we examined the effects of other dietary flavonoids on the ABCC11-mediated DHEA-S transport to uncover the effects of these phytochemicals on ABCC11 function. While further human studies are needed, our findings here about the natural compounds will help develop a non-surgical therapy for AO.

Abstract
Improved health span and lifespan extension in a wide phylogenetic range of species is associated with the induction of the environmental cell stress response through a signalling pathway regulated by the transcription factor Nrf2. Phytochemicals which stimulate this response may form part of therapeutic interventions which stimulate endogenous cytoprotective mechanisms, thereby delaying the onset of age-related diseases and promoting healthy ageing in humans. In order to identify compounds that activate the Nrf2 pathway, a cell-based reporter system was established in HepG2 cells using a luciferase reporter gene under the control of the Nqo1 promoter. Sulforaphane, an isothiocyanate derived from cruciferous vegetables and a known activator of the Nrf2 pathway, was used to validate the reporter system. The transfected cell line HepG2 C1 was subsequently used to screen natural product libraries. Five compounds were identified as activating the bioluminescent reporter by greater than 5-fold. The two most potent compounds, MBC20 and MBC37, were further characterised and shown to stimulate endogenous cytoprotective gene and protein expression. The bioluminescent reporter system will allow rapid, in vitro identification of novel compounds that have the potential to improve health span through activation of the environmental stress response.

Abstract
For most cancers, the treatment of choice is still chemotherapy despite its severe adverse effects, systemic toxicity and limited efficacy due to the development of multidrug resistance (MDR). MDR leads to chemotherapy failure generally associated with a decrease in drug concentration inside cancer cells, frequently due to the overexpression of ABC transporters such as P-glycoprotein (P-gp/MDR1/ABCB1), multidrug resistance-associated proteins (MRPs/ABCCs), and breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP/ABCG2), which limits the efficacy of chemotherapeutic drugs. The aim of this review is to compile information about transcriptional and post-transcriptional regulation of ABC transporters and discuss their role in mediating MDR in cancer cells. This review also focuses on drug resistance by ABC efflux transporters in cancer cells, particularly hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and colorectal carcinoma (CRC) cells. Some aspects of the chemotherapy failure and future directions to overcome this problem are also discussed.

Abstract
CONTEXT CYP3A4 and P-gp together form a highly efficient barrier for orally absorbed drugs and always share the same substrates. Our previous work revealed that chrysosplenetin (CHR) significantly augmented the rat plasma level and anti-malarial efficacy of artemisinin (ART), partially due to the uncompetitive inhibition effect of CHR on rat CYP3A. But the impact of CHR on P-gp is still unknown. OBJECTIVE The present study investigates whether CHR interferes with P-gp-mediated efflux of ART and elucidates the underlying mechanism. MATERIALS AND METHODS P-gp-over-expressing Caco-2 cells were treated with ART (10 μM) or ART-CHR (1:2, 10:20 μM) in ART bidirectional transport experiment. ART concentration was determined by UHPLC-MS/MS method. Healthy male ICR mice were randomly divided into nine groups (n = 6) including negative control (0.5% CMC-Na solution, 13 mL/kg), ART alone (40 mg/kg), verapamil (positive control, 40 mg/kg), ART-verapamil (1:1, 40:40 mg/kg), CHR alone (80 mg/kg), ART-CHR (1:0.1, 40:4 mg/kg), ART-CHR (1:1, 40:40 mg/kg), ART-CHR (1:2, 40:80 mg/kg) and ART-CHR (1:4, 40:160 mg/kg). The drugs were administrated intragastrically for seven consecutive days. MDR1 and P-gp expression levels in mice small intestine were examined by performing RT-PCR and western blot analysis. ABC coupling ATPase activity was also determined. RESULTS After combined with CHR (1:2), Papp (AP-BL) and Papp (BL-AP) of ART changed to 4.29 × 10 - 8 (increased 1.79-fold) and 2.85 × 10 - 8 cm/s (decreased 1.24-fold) from 2.40 × 10 - 8 and 3.54 × 10 - 8 cm/s, respectively. Efflux ratio (PBA/PAB) declined 2.21-fold (p < 0.01) versus to ART alone. ART significantly up-regulated both MDR1 mRNA and P-gp levels compared with vehicle, while CHR in combination ratio of 0:1, 0.1:1, 1:1, 2:1 and 4:1 with ART, reversed them to normal levels as well as negative control (p < 0.05). The ATPase activities in ART-CHR 1:4 and CHR alone groups achieved a slight increase (p < 0.05) when compared with ART alone. DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSION These results confirm that CHR inhibited P-gp activity and reverse the up-regulated P-gp and MDR1 levels induced by ART. It suggested that CHR potentially can be used as a P-gp reversal agent to obstruct ART multidrug resistance.

Abstract
AIMS Hemangiomas are endothelial cell tumors and the most common soft tissue tumors in infants. They frequently cause deformity and can cause death. Current pharmacologic therapies have high-risk side-effect profiles, which limit the number of children who receive treatment. The objectives of this work were to identify the mechanisms through which standardized berry extracts can inhibit endothelial cell tumor growth and test these findings in vivo. RESULTS EOMA cells are a validated model that generates endothelial cell tumors when injected subcutaneously into syngeneic (129P/3) mice. EOMA cells treated with a blend of powdered natural berry extracts (NBE) significantly inhibited activity of multidrug resistance protein-1 (MRP-1) compared to vehicle controls. This resulted in nuclear accumulation of oxidized glutathione (GSSG) and apoptotic EOMA cell death. When NBE-treated EOMA cells were injected into mice, they generated smaller tumors and had a higher incidence of apoptotic cell death compared to vehicle-treated EOMA cells as demonstrated by immunocytochemistry. Kaplan-Meier survival curves for tumor-bearing mice showed that NBE treatment significantly prolonged survival compared to vehicle-treated controls. INNOVATION These are the first reported results to show that berry extracts can inhibit MRP-1 function that causes apoptotic tumor cell death by accumulation of GSSG in the nucleus of EOMA cells where NADPH oxidase is hyperactive and causes pathological angiogenesis. CONCLUSIONS These findings indicate that berry extract inhibition of MRP-1 merits consideration and further investigation as a therapeutic intervention and may have application for other cancers with elevated MRP-1 activity.

Abstract
Drug resistance develops in nearly all patients with colon cancer, leading to a decrease in the therapeutic efficacies of anticancer agents. This review provides an up-to-date summary on over-expression of ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters and evasion of apoptosis, two representatives of transport-based and non-transport-based mechanisms of drug resistance, as well as their therapeutic strategies. Different ABC transporters were found to be up-regulated in colon cancer, which can facilitate the efflux of anticancer drugs out of cancer cells and decrease their therapeutic effects. Inhibition of ABC transporters by suppressing their protein expressions or co-administration of modulators has been proven as an effective approach to sensitize drug-resistant cancer cells to anticancer drugs in vitro. On the other hand, evasion of apoptosis observed in drug-resistant cancers also results in drug resistance to anticancer agents, especially to apoptosis inducers. Restoration of apoptotic signals by BH3 mimetics or epidermal growth factor receptor inhibitors and inhibition of cancer cell growth by alternative cell death pathways, such as autophagy, are effective means to treat such resistant cancer types. Given that the drug resistance mechanisms are different among colon cancer patients and may change even in a single patient at different stages, personalized and specific combination therapy is proposed to be more effective and safer for the reversal of drug resistance in clinics.

Abstract
A heme-binding assay based on mass spectrometry was performed on P. monodiana Maire (Asteraceae) extracts to identify metabolites able to form adducts with heminic part of haemoglobin, as potential antimalarial drugs. Main adducts were characterized and their stability was measured. Isolation of main constituents of P. monodiana Maire lead to identification of the two methoxyflavones 3'-O-methyleupatorin (7) and artemetin (8) involved in the adducts formation. Four seco-tanapartholides (1-4), a guaianolide (5), a germacranolide (6) and two other methoxyflavones (9, 10) were also characterized. Evaluation of isolated compounds on P. falciparum and T. brucei brucei showed a moderate antiprotozoal activity of the two methoxyflavones.

Abstract
Breast cancer is the most common form of cancer diagnosed in women worldwide and the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths in the USA. Despite the development of newer diagnostic methods, selective as well as targeted chemotherapies and their combinations, surgery, hormonal therapy, radiotherapy, breast cancer recurrence, metastasis and drug resistance are still the major problems for breast cancer. Emerging evidence suggest the existence of cancer stem cells (CSCs), a population of cells with the capacity to self-renew, differentiate and be capable of initiating and sustaining tumor growth. In addition, CSCs are believed to be responsible for cancer recurrence, anticancer drug resistance, and metastasis. Hence, compounds targeting breast CSCs may be better therapeutic agents for treating breast cancer and control recurrence and metastasis. Naturally occurring compounds, mainly phytochemicals have gained immense attention in recent times because of their wide safety profile, ability to target heterogeneous populations of cancer cells as well as CSCs, and their key signaling pathways. Therefore, in the present review article, we summarize our current understanding of breast CSCs and their signaling pathways, and the phytochemicals that affect these cells including curcumin, resveratrol, tea polyphenols (epigallocatechin-3-gallate, epigallocatechin), sulforaphane, genistein, indole-3-carbinol, 3, 3'-di-indolylmethane, vitamin E, retinoic acid, quercetin, parthenolide, triptolide, 6-shogaol, pterostilbene, isoliquiritigenin, celastrol, and koenimbin. These phytochemicals may serve as novel therapeutic agents for breast cancer treatment and future leads for drug development.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aqueous ethanolic extract from leaves of the marine plant Thalassia testudinum has shown antioxidant, cytoprotective, and neuroprotective properties. The chemical composition of this extract, rich in polyphenols, could interfere with active transport of drugs out of the cell and circumvent the phenomenon of multidrug resistance (MDR). The extract can act as an MDR modulator through its interaction with efflux transporters. The ABCG2/BCRP has been shown to confer MDR acting in tumor cells. METHODS To evaluate the interaction of ABCG2/BCRP with the extract, studies in cells overexpressing human BCRP transporter and its murine ortholog Bcrp1 were performed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS T. testudinum extract could be included as MDR modulator, as interaction with ABCG2/BCRP has been shown through flow cytometry and MTT assays. The cells overexpressing ABCG2/BCRP in the presence of the extract (25-150 μg/mL) decreased the survival rates of the anti-tumoral mitoxantrone. Our results support its inclusion as a possible MDR modulator against tumor cells that overexpress ABCG2/BCRP.

Abstract
Curcumin (CUR) is a phytochemical that inhibits the xenobiotic ABC efflux transporters implicated in cancer multidrug resistance (MDR), such as P-glycoprotein (P-gp), breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP) and multidrug resistance-associated proteins 1 and 5 (MRP1 and MRP5). The use of CUR in the clinic however, is complicated by its instability and poor pharmacokinetic profile. Monocarbonyl analogs of CUR (MACs) are compounds without CUR's unstable β-diketone moiety and were reported to have improved stability and in vivo disposition. Whether the MACs can be used as MDR reversal agents is less clear, as the absence of a β-diketone may negatively impact transporter inhibition. In this study, we investigated 23 heterocyclic cyclohexanone MACs for inhibitory effects against P-gp, BCRP, MRP1 and MRP5. Using flow cytometry and resistance reversal assays, we found that many of these compounds inhibited the transport activity of the ABC transporters investigated, often with much greater potency than CUR. Overall the analogs were most effective at inhibiting BCRP and we identified three compounds, A12 (2,6-bis((E)-2,5-dimethoxy-benzylidene)cyclohexanone), A13 (2,6-bis((E)-4-hydroxyl-3-methoxybenzylidene)-cyclohexanone) and B11 (3,5-bis((E)-2-fluoro-4,5-dimethoxybenzylidene)-1-methylpiperidin-4-one), as the most promising BCRP inhibitors. These compounds inhibited BCRP activity in a non-cell line, non-substrate-specific manner. Their inhibition occurred by direct transporter interaction rather than modulating protein or cell surface expression. From these results, we concluded that MACs, such as the heterocyclic cyclohexanone analogs in this study, also have potential as MDR reversal agents and may be superior alternatives to the unstable parent compound, CUR.

Abstract
Flavonoids have been extensively studied and are well documented to have anticancer effects, but it is not entirely known how they impact cellular mechanisms to elicit these effects. In the course of this study, we found that a variety of different flavonoids readily restored Brahma (BRM) in BRM-deficient cancer cell lines. Flavonoids from each of the six different structural groups were effective at inducing BRM expression as well as inhibiting growth in these BRM-deficient cancer cells. By blocking the induction of BRM with shRNA, we found that flavonoid-induced growth inhibition was BRM dependent. We also found that flavonoids can restore BRM functionality by reversing BRM acetylation. In addition, we observed that an array of natural flavonoid-containing products both induced BRM expression as well as deacetylated the BRM protein. We also tested two of the BRM-inducing flavonoids (Rutin and Diosmin) at both a low and a high dose on the development of tumors in an established murine lung cancer model. We found that these flavonoids effectively blocked development of adenomas in the lungs of wild-type mice but not in that of BRMnull mice. These data demonstrate that BRM expression and function are regulated by flavonoids and that functional BRM appears to be a prerequisite for the anticancer effects of flavonoids both in vitro and in vivo.

Abstract
The human ATP-binding cassette transporter multidrug resistance protein 1 (MRP1), encoded by ABCC1, was initially identified because of its ability to confer multidrug resistance in lung cancer cells. It is now established that MRP1 plays a role in protecting certain tissues from xenobiotic insults and that it mediates the cellular efflux of the proinflammatory cysteinyl leukotriene C4 as well as a vast array of other endo- and xenobiotic organic anions. Many of these are glutathione (GSH) or glucuronide conjugates, the products of Phase II drug metabolism. MRP1 also plays a role in the cellular efflux of the reduced and oxidized forms of GSH and thus contributes to the many physiological and pathophysiological processes influenced by these small peptides, including oxidative stress. In this review, the pharmacological and physiological aspects of MRP1 are considered in the context of the current status and future prospects of pharmacological and genetic modulation of MRP1 activity.

Abstract
Flavonoids constitute the largest class of dietary phytochemicals, adding essential health value to our diet, and are emerging as key nutraceuticals. Cellular targets for dietary phytochemicals remain largely unknown, posing significant challenges for the regulation of dietary supplements and the understanding of how nutraceuticals provide health value. Here, we describe the identification of human cellular targets of apigenin, a flavonoid abundantly present in fruits and vegetables, using an innovative high-throughput approach that combines phage display with second generation sequencing. The 160 identified high-confidence candidate apigenin targets are significantly enriched in three main functional categories: GTPase activation, membrane transport, and mRNA metabolism/alternative splicing. This last category includes the heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein A2 (hnRNPA2), a factor involved in splicing regulation, mRNA stability, and mRNA transport. Apigenin binds to the C-terminal glycine-rich domain of hnRNPA2, preventing hnRNPA2 from forming homodimers, and therefore, it perturbs the alternative splicing of several human hnRNPA2 targets. Our results provide a framework to understand how dietary phytochemicals exert their actions by binding to many functionally diverse cellular targets. In turn, some of them may modulate the activity of a large number of downstream genes, which is exemplified here by the effects of apigenin on the alternative splicing activity of hnRNPA2. Hence, in contrast to small-molecule pharmaceuticals designed for defined target specificity, dietary phytochemicals affect a large number of cellular targets with varied affinities that, combined, result in their recognized health benefits.

Noratto GD, Jutooru I, Safe S, Angel-Morales G, Mertens-Talcott SU. The drug resistance suppression induced by curcuminoids in colon cancer SW-480 cells is mediated by reactive oxygen species-induced disruption of the microRNA-27a-ZBTB10-Sp axis. Mol Nutr Food Res 2013; 57:1638-48. [PMID: 23471840 DOI: 10.1002/mnfr.201200609] [Citation(s) in RCA: 58] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/13/2012] [Revised: 01/05/2013] [Accepted: 01/08/2013] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
SCOPE Mechanisms involving the curcuminoids effects in decreasing the prooncogenic specificity protein (Sp) transcription factors, and Sp-regulated genes in SW-480 colon cancer cells and how the multidrug resistance protein (MDR1) inhibition is mediated by Sp suppression. METHODS AND RESULTS HT-29 and SW-480 colon cancer and normal CCD-18Co colon fibroblast cells were treated with curcuminoids previously analyzed by HPLC. Gene and protein expression regulation were assessed by RT-PCR, transfections with expression constructs, and Western blots. Curcuminoids (2.5-10 μg/mL) suppressed preferentially the growth of SW-480 and HT-29 compared to CCD-18Co cells and enhanced the anticancer activity of the chemotherapeutic drug 5-fluorouracil due to the suppression of MDR1. Additionally, Sp1, Sp3, and Sp4 and Sp-regulated genes were downregulated by curcuminoids in SW-480 and this was accompanied by suppression of microRNA-27a (miR-27a) and induction of ZBTB10, an mRNA target of miR-27a and a transcriptional repressor of Sp expression. This mechanism was mediated by the induction of ROS. RNA-interference and transfection with ZBTB10-expression plasmid demonstrated that MDR1 was regulated by Sp1 and Sp3 and the disruption of the miR-27a-ZBTB10-Sp axis. CONCLUSION Colon cancer treatment with curcuminoids will enhance the therapeutic effects of drugs in patients who have developed drug resistance.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The flavonoids are a large group of dietary plant compounds with suggested health benefits. There is accumulating evidence that many of these flavonoids can interact with the major drug transporters (and metabolizing enzymes) in the body, leading to alterations in the pharmacokinetics of substrate drugs, and thus their efficacy and toxicity. AREAS COVERED This review summarizes and updates the reported in vitro and in vivo interactions between common dietary flavonoids and the major drug-effluxing ABC transporters; these include P-glycoprotein, breast cancer resistance protein and multidrug resistance proteins 1 and 2. In contrast to previous reviews, the ADME of flavonoids are considered, along with their glycosides and Phase II conjugates. The authors also consider their possible interactions with the ABC transporters in the oral absorption, distribution into pharmacological sanctuaries and excretion of substrate drugs. Electronic databases, including PubMed, Scopus and Google Scholar were searched to identify appropriate in vitro and in vivo ABC transporter-flavonoid interactions, particularly within the last 10 years. EXPERT OPINION Caution is advised when taking flavonoid-containing supplements or herbal remedies concurrently with drugs. Further clinical studies are warranted to explore the impact of flavonoids and their metabolites on the pharmacokinetics, efficacy and toxicity of drugs.

Abstract
The ABC proteins are a family of membrane transporters that mediates the extrusion from cells of a wide variety of structurally unrelated substrates. The current review focuses on the role of these efflux pumps located in the intestine on the low oral bioavailability of trans-resveratrol. The enterocytes hold in the apical membrane three transporters, namely, P-glycoprotein (P-gp), multidrug resistance associated protein 2 (MRP2) and breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP), whereas the basolateral membrane contains multidrug resistance associated protein 3 (MRP3). The use of different specific inhibitors of these transporters as well as knockout mice enabled us to conclude that MRP2 and BCRP are involved in the extrusion of trans-resveratrol glucuronide and sulfate to the intestinal lumen without the participation of P-gp. The role of these transporters as a bottleneck in the absorption of trans-resveratrol cannot be undervalued affecting not only the bioavailability of its glucuronide and sulfate but also their distribution in the different organs.

Abstract
Mulberroside A (MulA) is one of the main bioactive constituents in mulberry (Morus alba L.). This study examined the determining factors for previously reported oral pharmacokinetic profiles of MulA and its bacterial metabolite oxyresveratrol (OXY) on in vitro models. When incubated anaerobically with intestinal bacteria, MulA underwent rapid deglycosylation and generated two monoglucosides and its aglycone OXY sequentially. MulA exhibited a poor permeability and predominantly traversed Caco-2 cells via passive diffusion; yet, the permeation of OXY across Caco-2 cells was much more rapid and involved efflux (both p-glycoprotein and MRPs)-mediated mechanisms. Moreover, OXY underwent extensive hepatic glucuronidation; yet, the parent MulA was kept intact in liver subcellular preparations. There was insignificant species difference in intestinal bacterial conversion of MulA and the extent of OXY hepatic glucuronidation between humans and rats, while OXY exhibited a distinct positional preference of glucuronidation in the two species. Overall, these findings revealed a key role of intestinal bacterial conversion in absorption and systemic exposure of MulA and its resultant bacterial metabolite OXY in oral route in humans and rats and warranted further investigational emphasis on OXY and its hepatic metabolites for understanding the benefits of mulberry.
