A series of tri- and tetra-substituted naphthalene diimides have been designed and synthesized. Several compounds show exceptional affinity for telomeric G-quadruplex DNA in classical and competition FRET assays and SPR studies. They inhibit telomerase in the TRAP assay, and show potent senescence-based short-term anti-proliferative effects on MCF7 and A549 cancer cell lines, and localize in the nucleus and particularly the nucleolus of MCF7 cells.
一系列三取代和四取代的萘二亚胺已被设计并合成。在经典和竞争荧光共振能量转移（FRET）分析以及表面等离子体共振（SPR）研究中，几种化合物对端粒G-四链体DNA表现出非凡的亲和力。它们在端粒重复扩增法（TRAP）分析中抑制端粒酶，并对MCF7和A549癌细胞系表现出基于衰老的强效短期抗增殖作用，且定位于MCF7细胞的细胞核，尤其是核仁。
