4-Deacetoxyagosterol A was synthesized from ergosterol by utilizing reductive regioselective epoxy cleavage as a key reaction. This synthesized congener of agosterol A, a spongean MDR-modulator, showed similar MDR-modulating activity against KB CV-60 cell

The first total synthesis of agosterol A, a modulator or multidrug resistance (MDR) mediated by P-gp and MRP1, and isolated from a marine sponge, was achieved from ergosterol by utilizing a regioselective epoxy-cleavage reaction and regioselective dehydro
