Potent radiosensitizing agents: 5-Methylselenyl- and 5-phenylselenyl-methyl-2′-deoxyuridine
摘要:
This Letter describes the novel radiosensitizing agents based on nucleoside base modification. In addition to the known 5-phenylselenide derivative, 5-methylselenide modified thymidine, which has a van der Waals radius smaller than the phenyl group, was newly synthesized. The similar monomer activity of 5-methylselenide derivative under oxidation condition was confirmed by NMR experiments. The cytotoxicity tests and radiosensitizing experiments of both compounds were carried out using the H460 lung cancer cell line. Both the 5-phenylselenide and the 5-methylselenide derivatives showed a relatively low toxicity to the cells. However, in combination with gamma-radiolysis, both exerted good radiosensitizing effects to the lung cancer cell lines in vitro. This result confirms that 5-methylselenide modified thymidine could be a useful candidate as a potential radiosensitizing agent in vivo. (c) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
