phospholipids. Nevertheless, glycerophospholipids analogs are known as antitumor agents while sphingomyelin analogs were reported as cytoprotective agents. Herein, we have addressed the development of 3-deoxysphingomyelin analogs as cytotoxic agents possessing modified sphingobases. Thus, pyrrolidine-based 3-deoxysphingomyelin analogs were synthesized and evaluated against a panel of cell lines representing

甘油磷脂类似物被称为抗肿瘤剂,而鞘
磷脂类似物被报告为细胞保护剂。在这里,我们已经解决了3-脱氧鞘
磷脂类似物作为具有修饰的
