Macrocyclic bisbibenzyls, a class of characteristic natural molecules derived from liverworts, have diverse biological significances. Dihydroptychantol A (DHA) was identified to be an antifungal active macrocyclic bisbibenzyl from liverwort Asterella angusta. In an attempt to understand other biological activities of this compound, the chemical synthesized DHA and its analogues (compounds 1-3) were employed to test this possibility by using adriamycin-resistant K562/A02 cells. Among the tested compounds (1-4) DHA, showed the strongest potency to increase adriamycin cytotoxicity toward K562/A02 cells by MTT assays and its reversal fold is 8.18 (20 mu M). Mechanisms of DHA on p-glycoprotein (P-gp)-mediated multidrug resistance (MDR) were further investigated. Based on the flow cytometry, we detected the significant increase of adriamycin and rhodamine 123 accumulation in K562/A02 cells exposed to various concentrations of DHA, meanwhile, notable decrease of rhodamine-123 efflux was also observed which revealed, DHA caused a decline of P-gp activity. Furthermore, P-gp expression was analyzed by the flow cytometry and RT-PCR. Dose-dependent reduction of P-gp expression was measured in K562/A02 cells pretreated with DHA for 24 h. No such results were found in parental K562 cells. These results demonstrated DHA reversed effectively MDR by blocking the drugs to be pumped Out Via inhibiting P-gp function and expression pathway.
