Total Synthesis of the Antitumor Natural Product Polycarcin V and Evaluation of Its DNA Binding Profile
نویسندگان
چکیده
The convergent total synthesis of polycarcin V, a gilvocarcin-type natural product that shows significant cytotoxicity with selectivity for nonsmall-cell lung cancer, breast cancer, and melanoma cells, has been achieved in 13 steps from 7, 8, and 22; the sequence features a stereoselective α-C-glycosylation reaction for the union of protected carbohydrate 7 and naphthol 8. The association constant for the binding of polycarcin V to duplex DNA is similar to that previously reported for gilvocarcin V.

Novel Pt(II) Complex and Its Pd(II) Aanalogue. Synthesis, Characterization, Cytotoxicity and DNA-interaction
The ability of small molecules to perturb the natural structure and dynamics of nucleic acids is intriguing and has potential applications in cancer therapeutics. This work reports the synthesis, characterization, cytotoxicity and DNA-binding studies of two cytotoxic and intercalative [M(bpy)(pyrr-dtc)]NO3 complexes (where M = Pt(II) and Pd(II), bpy = 2,2´-bipyridine and pyrr-dtc = p...
متن کاملBINDING OF THE ANTITUMOR DRUG ADRIAMYCIN TO DNA-HISTONE COMPLEXES
Isotherms of the binding of the anthracycIine antibiotic, adriamycin (adriblastin), to DNA histone complexes was studied by means of spectroscopic analysis. The results indicated that: (a) binding of adriamycin to histones reduced the interaction of histones with DNA, (b) binding of the drug to DNA did not change the binding affinity of histone to DNA and, (c) in the explored binding range...
متن کاملEffects of Vitamin K3 on Cytotoxicity and DNA-binding Properties of a Palladium(II) Complex as a Potential Antitumor Agent
In many diseases such as cancer, simultaneous use of two or more pharmacologically active agents will be more effective and have fewer side effects. In this study a new palladium(II) complex with formula of [Pd(phen)(py-dtc)]NO3 (where is phen 1,10-phenanthroline and py-dtc is n-propyldithiocarbamate), was synthesized. The cytotoxic activity of this complex was tested against leukemia K562 cell...
