ABCG2 Activators

ABCG2 activators represent a diverse group of chemicals that exert their influence on the ABCG2 transporter, a vital player in cellular detoxification and drug efflux. These activators can be broadly categorized based on their modes of action, which predominantly involve indirect modulation of cellular signaling pathways. One notable group includes tyrosine kinase inhibitors like Gefitinib and Imatinib. These chemicals indirectly activate ABCG2 by disrupting signaling cascades associated with EGFR and c-Kit, highlighting the interconnectedness of tyrosine kinase pathways with ABCG2 regulation. Another class comprises natural polyphenols such as Curcumin and Resveratrol.

These compounds indirectly activate ABCG2 by modulating intracellular signaling pathways like NF-κB and SIRT1/AMPK. Curcumin, for instance, prevents NF-κB-mediated transcription, leading to decreased ABCG2 expression, while Resveratrol activates AMPK, resulting in the suppression of mTOR-dependent ABCG2 regulation. This showcases the intricate interplay between dietary compounds and cellular signaling in controlling ABCG2 activity.Histone deacetylase inhibitors like Valproic Acid and Vorinostat represent yet another group of ABCG2 activators. Through epigenetic modulation, these chemicals induce hyperacetylation of histones, positively regulating ABCG2 expression.
