The compounds were tested on S1-B1-20 human colon carcinoma cells selected for resistance to bisantrene. Both the cytotoxicity of the reversal agents and their ability to resensitize the cells to bisantrene were determined All but two of these compounds were more effective MDR reversal agents in vitro than verapamil (VRP), a calcium channel antagonist which also has been shown to possess MDR modulating activity. Several showed good activity in this assay (IC50‘s < 0.5 μM), the most potent being isoindolines I [R1-R4 = OMe, R5 = 4-MeC6H4, R6 = CN, n = 5, m = 1; R1-R4 = OMe, R5 = C6H11, R6 = CN, n = 5, m = 1] and tetrahydroisoquinolines I [R1 = OCH2CH2Im, R2-R4 = OMe, R5 = 4-MeC6H4, R6 = H, n = 6, m = 2; R1-R4 = OMe, R5 = 4-MeC6H4, R6 = CN, n = 6, m = 2].

And the article was included in ChemMedChem in 2016.Reference of 57293-19-3 This article mentions the following:

Liver X receptor (LXR) agonists are candidates for the treatment of atherosclerosis via induction of ABCA1 (ATP-binding cassette A1) gene expression, which contributes to reverse cholesterol transport (RCT) and to cholesterol efflux from the liver and intestine. However, LXR agonists also induce genes involved in lipogenesis, such as SREBP-1c (sterol regulatory binding element protein 1c) and FAS (fatty acid synthase), thereby causing an undesirable increase in plasma and hepatic triglyceride (TG) levels. Recent studies indicate that LXRα contributes to lipogenesis in liver, and selective LXRβ activation improves RCT in mice. Therefore, LXRβ-selective agonists are promising candidates to improve atherosclerosis without increasing plasma or hepatic TG levels. However, the ligand-binding domains in the two LXR isoforms α/β share high sequence identity, and few LXR ligands show subtype selectivity. In this study the authors identified a tetrachlorophthalimide analog as an LXRβ-selective agonist. Structural development led to (E)-4,5,6,7-tetrachloro-2-(2-styrylphenyl)isoindoline-1,3-dione (I), which shows potent and selective LXRβ agonistic activity in reporter gene assays. In binding assays, compound I bound to LXRβ preferentially over LXRα. It also induced the expression of ABCA1 mRNA but not SREBP-1c mRNA in cells. Compound I appears to be a promising lead compound for therapeutic agents to treat atherosclerosis without the side effects induced by LXRα/β dual agonists.
