The widespread prevalence of colorectal cancer and its high mortality rate emphasize the urgent need for more effective therapies. When developing new drug products, a key aspect is ensuring that sufficiently high concentrations of the active drug are reached at the site of action. Drug transporters and drug-metabolizing enzymes can significantly influence the absorption and local accumulation of drugs in intestinal tissue.

Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to explore how asiatic acid (AA) affects the drug resistance in human leukemia cells (K562/ADR) resistant to adriamycin (ADR).
- AA was found to reduce the resistance of these cells and enhance the effectiveness of ADR, as shown by various assays including CCK-8 and flow cytometry.
- The results indicated that AA down-regulates the expression of certain proteins related to drug resistance, suggesting a potential mechanism for reversing resistance in these cancer cells.

Article Synopsis
- - The study highlights the challenge of multi-drug resistance (MDR) in cancer treatment, mainly due to the overexpression of ABC transporters like P-glycoprotein (P-gp), which affects the effectiveness of chemotherapy drugs.
- - Researchers explored the biaryl amide skeleton for potential agents to reverse MDR and identified a compound, D2, that significantly reversed resistance to drugs like paclitaxel and cisplatin in various cancer cell lines.
- - Compound D2 works by binding to P-gp, lowering its expression, and enhancing drug accumulation in cells, showing promise as a solution to combat MDR in cancer treatments.

Drug efflux transporters, especially those belonging to the ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter superfamily, play a crucial role in various drug resistance issues, including multidrug resistance (MDR) in cancer and treatment-resistant depression (TRD) in individuals with major depressive disorder. Key transporters in this context include P-glycoprotein (P-gp), multidrug resistance protein 1 (MRP1), and breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP). This study aimed to investigate the modulatory effects of polyoxyethylene (20) sorbitan monolaurate (Tween 20) on these efflux transporters and to evaluate its potential for overcoming drug resistance in two models: an cancer MDR model and an TRD model.
