Kuguacin J exerts growth inhibition through G1 arrest and induction of apoptosis in androgen-dependent human prostate cancer, it is a promising candidate new antineoplastic and chemopreventive agent for androgen-dependent prostate cancer and carcinogenesis. Kuguacin J modulates the function of P-glycoprotein (P-gp) by directly interacting at the drug-substrate-binding site, and it appears to be an effective inhibitor of P-gp activity in vitro and thus could be developed as an effective chemosensitizer to treat multidrug-resistant cancers.
