Neo-tanshinlactone (1) was isolated and synthesized for the first time and evaluated in vitro against several human cancer cell lines. Compound 1 showed significant inhibition against two ER+ human breast cancer cell lines and was 10-fold more potent and 20-fold more selective as compared to tamoxifen citrate. Compound 1 also potently inhibited an ER-, HER-2 overexpressing breast cancer cell line. Therefore, this novel compound merits further development as an anti-breast cancer drug candidate.
新丹参内酯(1)首次被分离和合成,并在体外对多种人类癌细胞系进行了评估。化合物1对两种雌激素受体阳性(ER+)的人类乳腺癌细胞系表现出显著的抑制作用,与柠檬酸他莫昔芬相比,其效力高10倍,选择性高20倍。化合物1还能有效抑制一种雌激素受体阴性(ER-)、人表皮生长因子受体2(HER-2)过表达的乳腺癌细胞系。因此,这种新型化合物作为一种抗乳腺癌药物候选物值得进一步开发。
