metastasis. Therefore, the inhibition of this pathway is an important therapeutic target for the treatment of various types of cancers. Here, we designed and synthesized 31 ursolic acid (UA) derivatives containing a tetrazole moiety and evaluated them for their potential anti-tumor activities as HIF-1α transcriptional inhibitors. Of these, compound 14d (IC50 0.8 ± 0.2 µM) displayed the most potent activity
缺氧诱导因子-1α(HIF-1α)通路与肿瘤血管生成,生长和转移有关。因此,抑制该途径是治疗各种类型癌症的重要治疗靶标。在这里,我们设计和合成了31个含有
