High affinity and covalent-binding microtubule stabilizing agents show activity in chemotherapy-resistant acute myeloid leukemia cells

Highlights • Drug efflux via membrane pumps is a resistant mechanism behind AML treatment failure. • Molecules with high affinity or covalent binding overcome pump efflux. • CTX-40 and zampanolide induce cell death in pump-overexpressing AML lines. • Both molecules synergize with daunorubicin withou...

Description
Summary:Highlights • Drug efflux via membrane pumps is a resistant mechanism behind AML treatment failure. • Molecules with high affinity or covalent binding overcome pump efflux. • CTX-40 and zampanolide induce cell death in pump-overexpressing AML lines. • Both molecules synergize with daunorubicin without increasing hematopoietic toxicity. • CTX-40 and zampanolide keep their antileukemic activity in a primary sample.
