Reversan is an inhibitor of multidrug resistance-associated proteins (MRPs), particularly MRP1. It enhances the efficacy of chemotherapeutic agents by blocking the efflux activity of MRP1, which is often overexpressed in cancer cells and contributes to drug resistance. Reversan has demonstrated chemosensitizing effects in preclinical models, notably improving the cytotoxicity of agents like etoposide and doxorubicin in neuroblastoma and other cancer cell lines. Unlike broad-spectrum efflux pump inhibitors, Reversan exhibits lower toxicity and greater selectivity, making it a promising candidate for overcoming drug resistance in cancer therapy.
