alkyl esters may possess enhanced biological activities. We evaluated C4, C14, C16, and C18 alkyl esters of p-coumaric, ferulic, sinapic, and caffeic acids (19 compounds) for their cytotoxic activity against four human cancer cells and also examined their effect on cell cycle alteration and apoptosis induction. The tetradecyl (1c) and hexadecyl (1d) esters of p-coumaric acid and tetradecyl ester of caffeic
癌症是全世界发病率和死亡率的主要原因。羟基肉桂酸(HCA)是天然存在的化合物,其烷基酯可能具有增强的生物活性。我们评估了对香豆酸,阿魏酸,芥子酸和咖啡酸(19种化合物)的C4,C14,C16和C18烷基酯对四种人类癌细胞的细胞毒活性,并且还研究了它们对细胞周期改变和凋亡诱导的影响。对香豆酸的十四烷基(1c)和十六烷基(1d)和咖啡酸(4c)的十四烷基酯(而非亲本的HCA)具有IC 50对MOLT-4(人淋巴细胞白血病)细胞的选择性作用。分别为0.123±0.012、0.301±0.069和1.0±0.1μM。化合物1c,1d和4c显着增加了亚G1期的凋亡细胞,并激活了MOLT-4细胞中的caspase-3酶。化合物1c对抗药性MES-SA-DX5子宫肉瘤细胞的效力分别比阿霉素和顺铂高15.4倍和23.6倍。这些对香豆酸酯对NIH / 3T3成纤维细胞的功效要低好几倍。对接研究表明1c可能通
