It has been found that efficient screening for a compound having anticancer activity can be achieved by selecting a compound having activity to induce alternative autophagy using, as an index, formation of fluorescent bright spots due to aggregation of a lysosomal protein to which a fluorescent protein is attached in cells expressing the lysosomal protein. In addition, it has been found that a benzothiophene compound represented by the following general formula (1) has alternative autophagy-inducing activity and anticancer activity:
已经发现,通过选择具有诱导替代自噬活性的化合物作为指标,在细胞中表达溶酶体蛋白质的情况下,通过形成荧光亮点聚集溶酶体蛋白质,可以实现高效筛选具有抗癌活性的化合物。此外,已经发现以下通式(1)所表示的苯并噻吩化合物具有替代自噬诱导活性和抗癌活性:
