چکیده
A concise total synthesis of the G2/M DNA damage checkpoint inhibitor psilostachyin C is reported using a 1,4-addition-aldol condensation-ring-closing metathesis (RCM) strategy. Initial biological studies indicate that psilostachyin C could enhance the sensitivity of the HeLa cell toward camptothecin (CPT) treatment via the activation of the caspase-3 mediated apoptosis pathway.

An indolocarbazole inhibitor of human checkpoint kinase (Chk1) abrogates cell cycle arrest caused by DNA damage.
Many cancer therapies cause DNA damage to effectively kill proliferating tumor cells; however, a major limitation of current therapies is the emergence of resistant tumors following initial treatment. Cell cycle checkpoints are involved in the response to DNA damage and specifically prevent cell cycle progression to allow DNA repair. Tumor cells can take advantage of the G2 checkpoint to arrest...
متن کاملThe Cdc14B-Cdh1-Plk1 Axis Controls the G2 DNA-Damage-Response Checkpoint
In response to DNA damage in G2, mammalian cells must avoid entry into mitosis and instead initiate DNA repair. Here, we show that, in response to genotoxic stress in G2, the phosphatase Cdc14B translocates from the nucleolus to the nucleoplasm and induces the activation of the ubiquitin ligase APC/C(Cdh1), with the consequent degradation of Plk1, a prominent mitotic kinase. This process induce...
متن کاملEffect of combined DNA repair inhibition and G2 checkpoint inhibition on cell cycle progression after DNA damage.
In response to DNA damage, cell survival can be enhanced by activation of DNA repair mechanisms and of checkpoints that delay cell cycle progression to allow more time for DNA repair. Inhibiting both responses with drugs might cause cancer cells to undergo cell division in the presence of lethal amounts of unrepaired DNA. However, we show that interfering with DNA repair via inhibition of DNA-d...
متن کاملDNA damage triggers p21WAF1-dependent Emi1 down-regulation that maintains G2 arrest.
Several regulatory proteins control cell cycle progression. These include Emi1, an anaphase-promoting complex (APC) inhibitor whose destruction controls progression through mitosis to G1, and p21(WAF1), a cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) inhibitor activated by DNA damage. We have analyzed the role of p21(WAF1) in G2-M phase checkpoint control and in prevention of polyploidy after DNA damage. After...
متن کاملA predictive mathematical model of the DNA damage G2 checkpoint.
A predictive mathematical model of the transition from the G2 phase in the cell cycle to mitosis (M) was constructed from the known interactions of the proteins that are thought to play significant roles in the G2 to M transition as well as the DNA damage- induced G2 checkpoint. The model simulates the accumulation of active cyclin B1/Cdk1 (MPF) complexes in the nucleus to activate mitosis, the...
