Bioactivity | Benzquinamide (P2647) is an antiemetic which can bind to the α2A, α2B, and α2C adrenergic receptors (α2-AR) with Ki values of 1,365, 691, and 545 nM, respectively. Benzquinamide also inhibits P-glycoprotein mediated drug efflux and potentiates anticancer agent cytotoxicity in multidrug resistant cells[1][2]. |
