Synthesis and antitumor activity of s -tetrazine derivatives
摘要:
Fifty-five compounds of s-tetrazine derivative including hexahydro-, 1,6-dihydro, 1,4-dihydro-, 1,2-dihydro- and aromatic s-tetrazine were prepared. Their antitumor activities were evaluated in vitro by MTT method for P-388 cell and SRB method for A-549 cell. The results show that there are 9 compounds which in 10(-6) muM have more than 50% inhibition rate to A-549 cancer cell growth, and 7 compounds in 10(-6) muM have more than 50% inhibition rate to P-388 cancer cell growth. The IC50 of compound 3q for P-388, Bel-7402, MCF-7 and A-549 are 0.6 muM, 0.6 muM, 0.5 muM and 0.7 muM, respectively. So s-tetrazine derivative is a kind of compound which possesses potential antitumor activities and is worth to research further. (C) 2003 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Topoisomerase II alpha (topo IIα) is exported from the cell nucleus in human myeloma cells by a chromosome-maintenance protein-1 (CRM1)-dependent mechanism, resulting in topo II inhibitor resistance. The nuclear export signal (NES) of topo IIα is unique, making it a potential target for small molecule inhibitors. Small molecules NES inhibitors were identified, which inhibited binding of topo IIα to the export receptor CRM1. Inhibition was specific to topo IIα as p53 trafficking was unaffected along with topo IIα protein expression and function (decatenation). These topo IIα-specific nuclear export inhibitors may potentially lead to a new approach in circumventing drug resistance in multiple myeloma. The compounds provide a protocol for treating multiple myeloma or an oncogenic disease. Further, the topoisomerase II nuclear export signal inhibitor may be combined with a topoisomerase II inhibitor.
