Synthesis and anticancer activity of novel quinoline–docetaxel analogues
摘要:
A series of novel quinoline-docetaxel analogues (6a-6g, 13a-13g) were designed and synthesized by introducing bioactive quinoline scaffold to C2'-OH of docetaxel. The anticancer activities of these novel analogues were investigated against different human cancer cell lines including Hela, A549, A2780, MCF-7 and two resistant strains A2780-MDR and MCF-7-MDR. The data showed these analogues possessed similar to better cytotoxicity than docetaxel. Compound 6c was found to be the most potent one, and its IC50 value against MCF-7-MDR was 8.8 nM (IC50 of docetaxel was 180 nM). The work indicated that the introduction of quinolyl group in docetaxel could enhance cytotoxicity and reduce drug-resistance. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
