9-aminonoscapine, prodrugs thereof, and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, are disclosed. Pharmaceutical compositions including 9-aminonoscapine, and methods of preparation and use thereof are disclosed. 9-aminonoscapine is a noscapine analog that can be used to treat and/or prevent a wide variety of cancers, including drug resistant cancers, by binding tubulin and inducing apoptosis selectively in tumor cells (ovarian and T-cell lymphoma) resistant to paclitaxel, vinblastine and teniposide. 9-aminonoscapine can perturb the progression of cell cycle by mitotic arrest, followed by apoptotic cell death associated with increased caspase-3 activation and appearance of TUNEL-positive cells. Thus, 9-aminonoscapine is a novel therapeutic agents for a variety of cancers, including ovarian and T-cell lymphoma cancers, even those that have become drug-resistant to currently available chemotherapeutic drugs.
本文介绍了9-氨基诺斯卡平及其前药和药学上可接受的盐。还介绍了包括9-氨基诺斯卡平的制药组合物以及其制备和使用方法。9-氨基诺斯卡平是一种诺斯卡平类似物,可以通过结合微管蛋白并在对紫杉醇、长春新和依托泊苷等药物产生耐药性的肿瘤细胞(卵巢和T细胞淋巴瘤)中选择性诱导细胞凋亡来治疗和/或预防各种癌症。9-氨基诺斯卡平可以通过有丝分裂阻滞干扰细胞周期的进展,随后通过增加caspase-3活化和TUNEL阳性细胞的出现引起细胞凋亡。因此,9-氨基诺斯卡平是一种新型的治疗剂,可用于治疗各种癌症,包括卵巢和T细胞淋巴瘤癌,即使这些癌症已经对当前可用的化疗药物产生了耐药性。
