The African tree Combretum caffrum (Combretacae) has been found to contain a powerful inhibitor of tubulin polymerization (IC50 2-3 microM), the growth of murine lymphocytic leukemia (L 1210 and P 388 with ED50 approximately 0.003 microM and human colon cancer cell lines [(e.g. LoVo (ED50 = 0.005 microgram/ml), HT 29 (ED50 0.02 microgram/ml, Colo 205 (ED50 = 0.07 microgram/ml), DLD-1 (ED50 = 0.005 microgram/ml) and HCT-15 (ED50 = 0.0009 microgram/ml] designated combretastatin A-4 (1c). The structure assigned by spectral techniques was confirmed by synthesis.
已发现非洲树木南非风车子(使君子科)含有一种强大的微管蛋白聚合抑制剂(IC50为2 - 3微摩尔),对鼠淋巴细胞白血病(L1210和P388,ED50约为0.003微摩尔)以及人结肠癌细胞系[如洛伏(LoVo,ED50 = 0.005微克/毫升)、HT29(ED50 = 0.02微克/毫升)、科洛205(Colo 205,ED50 = 0.07微克/毫升)、DLD - 1(ED50 = 0.005微克/毫升)和HCT - 15(ED50 = 0.0009微克/毫升)]有抑制作用,该抑制剂被命名为combretastatin A - 4(1c)。通过光谱技术确定的结构经合成得到证实。
