Abstract:
:P-glycoprotein (P-gp) is a main factor contributing to multidrug resistance. The effect of this transporter protein on limiting the effectiveness of chemotherapy has been shown by various studies. In a previous report, we synthesized some 14-dihydropyridine (DHP) derivatives as inhibitors of human P-gp. In the present study, a computational approach has been exploited to reveal the main interactions between DHPs and P-gp. In order to do this, homology modeling was performed to obtain a model of the protein. Then, molecular dynamics simulation was used to refine the constructed model of P-gp in the presence of the lipids bilayer. Model validation was performed with several tools. Finally, molecular docking followed by MD simulation of ligand-protein complex was employed to elucidate the binding mode and the dynamical changes of protein with/without DHPs bound. The results emphasized that interaction of the residues Gln912, Ser909, Arg905, Ser474, Val472 with DHPs play a crucial role in the inhibitory of these ligands and this was in a relatively good accordance with the results reported in the experimental studies.
