Two novel nitroimidazole-based bioreductive compounds, 10-[3-(2-nitroimidazolyl)-propylamino]-3,4-dihydro-1H-thiopyrano[4,3-b]quinoline hydrochloride (8a) and 10-[3-(2-nitroimidazolyl)propylamino]-2-methyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-benzo[b]-1,6-naphthyridine hydrochloride (8b) have been synthesized and
A variety of isoindolo[2,1-a]quinoline derivatives as well as the following related heterocycles have been prepared: 11b,12-dihydro-5H-isoindolo[2,1-b][2]benzazepine-7,13-dione (8a), 7,8,14,14a-tetrahydroisoindolo[2,1-c][3]benzazocine-5, 13-dione (8b),
A series of metal complexes were prepared as potential prodrugs of the extremely toxic DNA minor groove alkylator 1-(chloromethyl)-5-hydroxy-3-[(5,6,7-trimethoxyindol-2-yl)carbonyl]-2,3-dihydro-1H-pyrrolo[3,2-f]quinoline (seco-6-azaCBI-TMI) and close analogues. The pyrrolo[3,2-f]quinoline cytotoxins
Targeting of electron-affinic radiosensitizers to DNA via noncovalent binding (e.g., intercalation) may offer the potential for increasing sensitizing efficiency. However, it has been suggested that high-affinity DNA binding may compromise sensitization by restricting the mobility of sensitizers
Studies have shown that 4-(alkylamino)-5-nitroquinolines possess high selectivity (20-60-fold) for hypoxic tumor cells in vitro, but are not active as hypoxia-selective cytotoxins (HSCs) in vivo. The compounds show inadequate rates of extravascular diffusion, likely due both to sequestration of the
Oxidative stress due to excess superoxide anion ([Formula: see text]) produced by dysfunctional mitochondria is a key pathogenic event of aging and ischemia-reperfusion diseases. Here, a new [Formula: see text]-scavenging MnII complex with a new polyamino-polycarboxylate macrocycle
The assessment of drugs designed to be useful in the eradication of hypoxic (resistant) cells involves comparison of hypoxic and aerobic radiosensitization, cytotoxicities, as well as DNA binding and reduction potentials. Three pairs of isomers of quinoline complexes [amino dichloro quinoline
The rationale of the present study was to investigate the simultaneous effect of hypoxia and drugs with an "anti-pyrimidine effect" on tumor cell proliferation to evaluate putative changes in the sensitivity of cells to these kinds of chemotherapeutic treatment on reduced O2 tension. Pyrimidine de
Optoacoustic imaging exhibits great potential for preclinical research and clinical practice, and designing robust activatable optoacoustic probes for specific diseases is beneficial for its further development. Herein, an activatable probe has been developed for tumor hypoxia imaging. For this
A series of isomeric 4-[[3-(dimethylamino)propyl]amino]nitroquinolines has been synthesized and evaluated as hypoxia-selective cytotoxins and as radiosensitizers of hypoxic cells. The compounds showed widely-differing hypersensitivity factors (ratios of cytotoxicity against wild-type and
Nine-day-old harlequin (Hq) mice carrying the hypomorphic apoptosis-inducing factor (AIF)(Hq) mutation expressed 60% less AIF, 18% less respiratory chain complex I and 30% less catalase than their wild-type (Wt) littermates. Compared with Wt, the infarct volume after hypoxia-ischemia (HI) was
BACKGROUND
Tasquinimod (ABR-215050) is an orally active quinoline-3-carboxamide analog that has completed phase II clinical trial in patients with castration resistant prostate cancer, showing promising inhibiting effects on the occurrence of metastasis and delayed disease progression. Its mechanism
Generation of DNA damage is considered to be an important initial event in carcinogenesis. A considerable battery of assays exists for the detection of different genotoxic effects of compounds in experimental systems, or for investigations of exposure to genotoxic agents in environmental or
Human prostatic cancer cells have a remarkably low rate of proliferation even when they have metastasized to the bone and have become androgen independent (Berges et al., Clin. Cancer Res., 1:473-480, 1995). Due to this low proliferation, patients with such androgen-independent metastatic prostatic
Hypoxia-ischaemia in the developing brain results in brain injury with prominent features of apoptosis. In the present study, a third generation dipeptidyl broad-spectrum caspase inhibitor, quinoline-Val-Asp(Ome)-CH2-O-phenoxy (Q-VD-OPh), was tested in a model of unilateral focal ischaemia with
