Doxazosin-Related α1-Adrenoceptor Antagonists With Prostate Antitumor Activity
摘要:
Doxazosin analogues 1-3 and 1 a were synthesized and investigated at alpha(1)-adrenoceptors and PC-3, DU-145, and LNCaP human prostate cancer cells. Compound 1 (cyclodoxazosin) was a potent alpha(1B)-adrenoceptor antagonist displaying anti proliferative activity higher than that of doxazosin in cancer cells in vitro and in vivo, respectively. Because of its antitumor efficacy at low concentrations, lower apoptotic activity in NHDF vs tumor cells, and antiangiogenetic effect, 1 showed a better therapeutic profile relative to doxazosin.
