The present invention provides materials and methods to induce cell death by methuosis, a non-apoptotic cell death mechanism, to induce vacuolization without cell death, or to induce cell death without vacuolization. Small molecules herein are useful for treating cell proliferation disorders or anomalies, particularly, but not exclusively, cancer. Methods related to the research and pharmaceutical use of the small molecules are also provided herein.
本发明提供了诱导细胞死亡的材料和方法,其中包括非凋亡性细胞死亡机制methuosis,诱导出现空泡而不导致细胞死亡,或者诱导细胞死亡而不出现空泡。此处的小分子化合物可用于治疗细胞增殖障碍或异常,特别是但不限于癌症。本文还提供了与小分子化合物的研究和制药使用相关的方法。
