Inhibition of ABC transporters is a promising approach to overcome multidrug resistance in cancer. Herein, we report the characterization of a potent ABCG2 inhibitor, namely, chromone ( ). Molecular docking and in vitro assays using ABCG2 and P-glycoprotein (P-gp) expressing membrane vesicles of ins...
