potential role of scutellarin and its main metabolite scutellarein in the treatment of cancer. To explore novel anticancer agents with high efficiency, a series of new scutellarein derivatives with a long aliphatic chain were synthesized, and the antiproliferative activities against Jurkat, HCT-116 and MDA-MB-231 cancer cell lines were assessed. Among them, compound 6a exhibited the strongest antiproliferative
灯盏花乙素是从中国广泛使用的传统中草药灯盏花(Erigeron breviscapus (Vant.) Hand-Mazz.)中提取的主要活性黄酮类化合物。最近,越来越多的证据强调了灯盏花乙素及其主要代谢物灯盏花乙素在癌症治疗中的潜在作用。为了探索新型高效抗癌剂,合成了一系列具有长脂肪链的新型黄芩素衍生物,并评估了对 Jurkat、HCT-116 和 MDA-MB-231 癌细胞系的抗增殖活性。其中,化合物6a对Jurkat (IC50 = 1.80 μM)、HCT-116 (IC50 = 11.50 μM)和MDA-MB-231 (IC50 = 53.91 μM)表现出最强的抗增殖作用。特别是,6a 甚至显示出比阳性对照 NaAsO2 对 Jurkat 和 HCT-116 细胞系更强的抗增殖作用。结果表明适当的长脂肪链增强了黄芩素的抗增殖活性。
