Abstract

The in-house IIIM natural product repository of 302 small molecules was screened for their ability to inhibit P-glycoprotein (Pgp) in Pgp-overexpressing human adenocarcinoma LS-180 cells. The screening identified 13 natural products displaying significant Pgp-inhibition activity, including praeruptorin B, curcumin, imperatorin, osthol, 5,7-diacetoxy-8-(3-methyl-2-butenyl)-coumarin, 5,7-dihydroxy-8-(3-methyl-2-butenyl) coumarin, pongamol, phellopterin, tangeretin, 3-(2-methyl but-3-en-2-yl) xanthyletin, 7-demethyl osthol, allorottlerin and tetrahydroangeolide. These natural products were then screened for their effects on bacterial efflux pump inhibition activity against NorA (Staphylococcus aureus), MdeA (S. aureus Mupr -1), TetK (S. aureus SA-K2192), and MsrA (S. aureus SA-K2191) efflux pumps. Curcumin and osthol showed significant inhibition of the S. aureus NorA efflux pump with 8 and 4-fold reductions in the MIC of ciprofloxacin at 25 mM. The molecular docking studies of curcumin and osthol with the human Pgp and S. aureus NorA efflux pump identified plausible binding modes and binding sites for these natural products.
