A series of benzimidazole- and benzothiazole-quinones has been synthesized. The ability of these heterocyclic quinones to act as substrates for recombinant human NAD(P)H:quinone oxidoreductase (NQO1), a two-electron reductase upregulated in tumour cells, was determined. Overall, the quinones were excellent substrates for NQO1.
已合成了一系列苯并咪唑和苯并噻唑醌。测定了这些杂环醌作为重组人NAD(P)H:醌氧化还原酶(NQO1,一种在肿瘤细胞中上调的双电子还原酶)底物的能力。总体而言,这些醌是NQO1的优良底物。
