Synthesis and biological studies of the thiols-triggered anticancer prodrug for a more effective cancer therapy.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A novel anticancer prodrug compound 1, which was designed to be triggered by thiols and release the chemotherapeutic agent mechlorethamine, was successfully prepared and evaluated for the first time. The activation of compound 1 was determined by NMR analysis and denaturing alkaline agarose gel electrophoresis. A fluorescence image and comet assay indicated that the inducible reactivity of 1 could be accomplished in cell media. The anticancer activities are also discussed.

An activatable theranostic for targeted cancer therapy and imaging.
A new theranostic strategy is described. It is based on the use of an "all in one" prodrug, namely the biotinylated piperazine-rhodol conjugate 4 a. This conjugate, which incorporates the anticancer drug SN-38, undergoes self-immolative cleavage when exposed to biological thiols. This leads to the tumor-targeted release of the active SN-38 payload along with fluorophore 1 a. This release is mad...
متن کاملDesign, synthesis and biological evaluation of Ciprofloxacin- peptide conjugates as anticancer agents
Cancer has emerged as a leading cause of death throughout the world. Peptides are a novel class of anticancer agents that can specifically target cancer cells with low toxicity to normal tissues and thus, offer new opportunities for future cancer treatment. On the other hand, Ciprofloxacin, an antibiotic, also known to its anticancer property for enabling cell cycle arrest and creating double s...

متن کاملSynthesis and Biological Evaluation of 2-Phenyl Benzothiazole Derivatives as Cytotoxic Agents
Cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide. Many heterocyclic cores are present in the structures of clinically approved anticancer drugs. Meanwhile, benzothiazoles have been reported as one of the most important heterocyclic scaffolds in previously reported anticancer agents in the literature. Therefore, in this report, a novel series of 2-phenyl benzothiazole derivatives was synthesized, bi...
