A CELL-BASED HIGH-THROUGHPUT SCREEN IDENTIFIES INHIBITORS THAT OVERCOME P-GLYCOPROTEIN (PGP)-MEDIATED MULTIDRUG RESISTANCE.

A cell-based high-throughput screen identifies inhibitors that overcome P-glycoprotein (Pgp)-mediated multidrug resistance.

Multidrug resistance (MDR) to chemotherapeutic drugs remains one of the major impediments to the treatment of cancer.Discovery and development of drugs that can prevent and reverse the acquisition of multidrug resistance constitute a foremost challenge in cancer therapeutics.In this work, we screened a library of 1,127 compounds with known targets

Postharvest Ultraviolet Radiation in Fruit and Vegetables: Applications and Factors Modulating Its Efficacy on Bioactive Compounds and Microbial Growth

Ultraviolet (UV) radiation has been considered a deleterious agent that living organisms must avoid.However, many of the acclimation changes elicited by UV induce a wide range of positive effects in plant physiology through the elicitation of secondary antioxidant metabolites and natural defenses.Therefore, this fact has changed the original UV con
