Fluoride as an inducible DNA cross-linking agent for new antitumor prodrug.
Two new small compounds, which undergo fluoride-mediated self rearrangement, produce active DNA alkylating agent nitrogen mustard leading to DNA damage and finally cell death, providing potential antitumor prodrugs.
متن کاملDiacetoxyscirpenol as a new anticancer agent to target hypoxia-inducible factor 1
Hypoxia activates hypoxia-inducible factor 1, which promotes the progression of malignancy by stimulating angiogenesis and by augmenting the ability of tumors to survive. Thus, HIF-1 is one of the most compelling targets for treating cancers. The aim of this study was to find a small molecule that inhibits HIF-1 under hypoxia in cancer cells. 7,280 compounds in a chemical library were tested in...
متن کاملRunaway ROS as a selective anticancer strategy.
The majority of cancer therapies target macromolecules important for general cell survival, such as DNA, topoisomerase, and tubulin (e.g. , cisplatin, doxorubicin, and paclitaxel, respectively). While these agents are effective at killing many types of cancer cells, they also affect rapidly dividing normal cells, such as the intestinal lining and bone marrow, resulting in dose limiting toxiciti...
متن کاملReactive Oxygen Species (ROS) Inducible DNA Cross-Linking Agents and Their Effect on Cancer Cells and Normal Lymphocytes
Reducing host toxicity is one of the main challenges of cancer chemotherapy. Many tumor cells contain high levels of ROS that make them distinctively different from normal cells. We report a series of ROS-activated aromatic nitrogen mustards that selectively kill chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) over normal lymphocytes. These agents showed powerful DNA cross-linking abilities when coupled wit...
متن کاملLaccase-Based CLEAs: Chitosan as a Novel Cross-Linking Agent
Laccase from Coriolopsis Polyzona was insolubilized as cross-linked enzyme aggregates (CLEAs) for the first time with chitosan as the cross-linking agent. Concentrations between 0.01 and 1.867 g/L of chitosan were used and between 0.05 and 600 mM of 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide hydrochloride. The laccase was precipitated using ammonium sulphate and cross-linked simultaneously. ...
