چکیده

Atpenin B, a new antifungal antibiotic produced by Penicillium sp. FO-125, inhibited the growth of Raji cells (IC50, 30 microM). The incorporation of [14C]leucine and [3H]thymidine into Raji cells was inhibited by atpenin B with IC50 values of 0.10 and 0.12 microM, respectively. The incorporation of [14C]palmitate into the cells was not inhibited but its incorporation into lipid fractions was inhibited by atpenin B (IC50, 0.13-0.24 microM). Studies on the site of atpenin B action demonstrated that atpenin B decreases the cellular adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP) level in Raji cells with IC50 value of 0.020 microM, suggesting the inhibition of ATP-generating system by atpenin B.

Cabazitaxel antiproliferative mechanism of action in U87MG human glioblastoma cells: a promising cell-cycle phase-specific radiosensitizer

Introduction: One mechanism of cell cycle manipulation and mitotic catastrophe is arrest at G2/M phase of cell cycle. Cabazitaxel, a mitotic inhibitor agent, is a second-generation semisynthetic taxane. An expected anti-neoplastic effect of Cabazitaxel is cell cycle perturbation and alteration of microtubule dynamics. In contrast to other taxane compounds, Cabazitaxel is a poo...
