Four 5,6-dimethylxanthone-4-acetic acid (D) and pyranoxanthone (P) hybrids (D-P-n) were design-synthesized based on multi-target-addressed strategy. D-P-4 was confirmed as the most active agent against HepG-2 cell line growth with an IC of 0.216 ± 0.031 μM. Apoptosis analysis indicated different contributions of early/late apoptosis/necrosis to cell death for both monomers, the combination (D + P in 1:1 mol ratio) and D-P-4. They all arrested more cells on S phase. Western Blot implied that D-P-4 regulated p53/MDM2 to a better healthy state. Moreover, it improved Bax/Bcl-2 signaling pathway to increase cancer cell apoptosis. In all cases studied, D-P-4 showed the best activity and synergistic effect. All the evidences support that D-P-4 is a better anti-cancer therapy with multi-target functions.
基于多靶点策略设计合成了四种5,6-二甲基呫吨酮-4-乙酸(D)和吡喃呫吨酮(P)的杂合物(D-P-n)。D-P-4被确认为对HepG-2细胞系生长最具活性的药物,其IC50为0.216±0.031μM。凋亡分析表明,早期/晚期凋亡/坏死对两种单体、组合体(D + P,摩尔比1:1)和D-P-4的细胞死亡有不同贡献。它们都使更多细胞停滞在S期。蛋白质免疫印迹表明,D-P-4将p53/MDM2调节至更好的健康状态。此外,它改善了Bax/Bcl-2信号通路以增加癌细胞凋亡。在所研究的所有情况下,D-P-4表现出最佳活性和协同效应。所有证据均支持D-P-4是一种具有多靶点功能的更好的抗癌疗法。
