The present invention provides a semi-synthetic sesquiterpene lactone parthenin compound of general formula 1, useful for cytotoxicity against cancer cell lines and anticancer activity. According to another aspect of the invention provides a pharmaceutical composition composing the said compound. The present invention further provides a therapeutically effective dose of the said composition and a method of treating cancer in a subject by adjninisjering the effective amount of esquiterpene lactone parthenin compound or pharmaceutical composition thereof by oral, nasal, intra-peritoneal, or intravenous. Wherein the form in which the said compisition used is liquid, tablet, capsule, powder, gel or granules.
Analogues of parthenin were synthesized by substitutions at different reaction centres to establish a structure-activity relationship (SAR). Some of the molecules have displayed significant cytotoxicity in human cervical carcinoma (HeLa) and human myeloid leukemia (HL-60) cells. A few of the compounds also induced apoptosis in HL-60 cells measured in terms of sub-Go/G1 DNA fraction. Also one of the lead molecules has been shown to be the inhibitor of both telomerase and topoisomerase-II. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
