N-Glycosides of indigo, indirubin, and isoindigo: blue, red, and yellow sugars and their cancerostatic activity
Beilstein J. Org. Chem. 2024, 20, 2840–2869, doi:10.3762/bjoc.20.240
- be inactive. The activities of β-33b and 34 on the cell viability was independently studied by using crystal violet as a dye for viable cells following a 48 h incubation of A375 melanoma cells and A431 squamous carcinoma cells. Interestingly, a concentration-dependent cytotoxicity was again observed
- mentioned above, that the free NH function of indirubin is important for CDK inhibition. We have shown in our group by enzyme studies that glycoside β-33b, lacking the free NH-function, does not act as a CDK inhibitor, despite its high activity against melanoma cells and other cancers [32]. These results
- anticipated that PAM activates channels of the membrane of melanoma cells to allow the antiproliferative compound (β-33b) to enter the cell. Thus, β-33b combined with PAM might be developed to a new and promising method of therapeutic intervention. This concept of combination of PAM with drugs could also be

- ’-position (Table 5). Interestingly the resulting nucleotides were found to adopt a conformation which was, with respect to duplex stability, tolerated at terminal positions but not at internal positions [91]. The modified PS-ASOs were transfected into human-607B melanoma cells, and after 48 h, the B-cell
Chemical approaches to discover the full potential of peptide nucleic acids in biomedical applications
Beilstein J. Org. Chem. 2021, 17, 1641–1688, doi:10.3762/bjoc.17.116
- disulfide linkages to transportan and penetratin peptides. The PNA–peptide conjugates were effectively internalized in human Bowes melanoma cells and in vivo in rats [171]. Transportan peptide localized the PNA in membranous structures of cells, while the penetratin conjugate preferred nuclear localization
Comparative cell biological study of in vitro antitumor and antimetastatic activity on melanoma cells of GnRH-III-containing conjugates modified with short-chain fatty acids
Beilstein J. Org. Chem. 2018, 14, 2495–2509, doi:10.3762/bjoc.14.226
- melanoma cells was increased by [4Lys(Ac)]-GnRH-III(Dau=Aoa), while the GnRH-III(Dau=Aoa) and [4Lys(Bu)]-GnRH-III(Dau=Aoa) decreased this activity. Conclusion: Internalization and cytotoxicity of the conjugates showed that GnRH-III peptides could guard Dau to melanoma cells and promote antitumor activity
- demonstrated in melanoma cell lines [25][26]. There are also evidences that the short-chain fatty acids, including sodium butyrate and valproic acid, could inhibit the proliferation of melanoma cells both in in vitro (e.g., A2058 [27], B16 cell lines [28]) and in vivo experiments [28][29] or could abrogate the
- anticancer drug resistance as they are co-administrated with other chemotherapeutics [29][30]. Nevertheless, there is some controversy about the effects of short-chain fatty acids on the metastatic ability of melanoma cells, since both pro-invasive [31] and anti-invasive [29][32] activities have been

Deproto-metallation of N-arylated pyrroles and indoles using a mixed lithium–zinc base and regioselectivity-computed CH acidity relationship

- -(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)azole 1f or 2f (Figure 5) could be in relation with a reaction temperature (too high) not suitable to discriminate between similarly acidified positions. Antiproliferative activity in A2058 melanoma cells The N-arylated pyrroles and indoles exerted low to moderate antiproliferative activity
- in A2058 melanoma cells (Figure 6). The best result was obtained with 1f at 10−5 M, which induced 31.9 ± 0.1% growth inhibition in cells treated for 72 h. The linear N-arylated pyrroles 1b and 1e were poorly active. Arylation by a thiophene moiety (1a and 2a) moderately increased the
- previously [60]. A2058 cells are highly invasive human epithelial adherent melanoma cells, derived from lymph nodes metastatic cells obtained from a 43 year old male patient. They are tumorigenic at 100% frequency in nude mice, and considered as very resistant to anticancer drugs. All cell culture
Antioxidant potential of curcumin-related compounds studied by chemiluminescence kinetics, chain-breaking efficiencies, scavenging activity (ORAC) and DFT calculations
Beilstein J. Org. Chem. 2015, 11, 1398–1411, doi:10.3762/bjoc.11.151
- , dimers 6 and 7 are nontoxic to PC12 cells at a concentration of 40 μM and, contrary to curcumin, dimer 7 protects PC12 cells against MnCl2 damage [11]. When the phenol OH groups of dimer 8 were protected with methyl or phenyl groups, antiproliferative activity against malignant melanoma cells was
Glycodendrimers: tools to explore multivalent galectin-1 interactions
Beilstein J. Org. Chem. 2015, 11, 739–747, doi:10.3762/bjoc.11.84
- ][25]. Synthetic multivalent ligands have been observed to enhance galectin-1 binding through the glycoside cluster effect by mediating the formation of cross-linked aggregates [26][27][28]. Tinari et al. observed galectin-1 augmentation of homotypic cellular aggregation in human melanoma cells (A375
Application of cyclic phosphonamide reagents in the total synthesis of natural products and biologically active molecules
Beilstein J. Org. Chem. 2014, 10, 1848–1877, doi:10.3762/bjoc.10.195
- a tetrasubstituted trans-cyclopropane subunit. The compound shows modest cytotoxic activity against murine melanoma cells [98][99]. The first enantioselective total synthesis of anthoplalone was achieved by Hanessian and co-workers and utilized their chloroallyl phosphonamide anion cyclopropanation
Human dendritic cell activation induced by a permannosylated dendron containing an antigenic GM3-lactone mimetic
Beilstein J. Org. Chem. 2014, 10, 1317–1324, doi:10.3762/bjoc.10.133
- the realm of immunotherapy [23][24][25]. GM3-ganglioside 1 (Figure 1), the major glycosphingolipid in normal melanocytes, is overexpressed in melanoma cells with metastatic potential [26][27]. It has been considered a carbohydrate melanoma-associated antigen and widely investigated as a key component
- of a potential vaccine against melanoma disease [28]. The GM3 metabolite, named GM3-lactone 2 (Figure 1) has also been found in melanoma cells as a minor component [29][30]. Although more immunogenic than GM3-ganglioside 1, GM3-lactone 2 failed as an immunostimulant because under physiological
