cyclohexanol/neoplasms

Multidrug resistance (MDR) is a kind of acquired resistance of microorganisms and cancer cells to chemotherapeutic drugs that are characterized by different chemical structure and different mechanism of action. Classic MDR is due to a lower intracellular concentration of cytotoxic drugs that is

A family of norcantharidin analogues possessing a terminal alcohol (ethanol, propanol, butanol, pentanol, hexanol and cyclohexanol) moiety were treated with either chlorodiethyl, chlorodiphenyl or chloro-bis-trichloroethyl-phosphate to afford highly focused libraries of the corresponding phosphate

BACKGROUND Sigma receptors are appropriate targets for tumor imaging because they are highly expressed in a variety of human tumors. Previously, we synthesized a vesamicol analog, (+)-2-[4-(4-iodophenyl)piperidino]cyclohexanol ((+)-pIV), with high affinity for sigma receptors, and prepared

The study was undertaken to explore the effect of CP55,940 ((-)-cis-3-[2-Hydroxy4-(1,1-dimethylheptyl) phenyl]-trans-4-(3-hydroxypropyl)cyclohexanol), a drug commonly used as a CB1/CB2 cannabinoid receptor agonist, on intracellular free Ca2+ levels ([Ca2+]i) in several cell types [Ca2+]i was

The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of the four isomers (3a, 3b, 3c and 3d) of a novel multidrug resistance-reverting agent - 3,4,5-trimethoxybenzoic acid 4-(methyl-{4-[3-(3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl)acryloyloxy]cyclohexyl}amino)cyclohexyl ester - on vascular functions in vitro. A

Cytochrome P-450 is present in the endoplasmic reticulum at varying concentrations in almost all tissues. However, the existence and role of cytochrome P-450 in normal and neoplastic reproductive tissues has not been clearly demonstrated. Our interest lies in the possibility that variations in

BACKGROUND Sigma receptors are highly expressed in human tumors and should be appropriate targets for developing tumor imaging agents. Previously, we synthesized a vesamicol analog, (+)-2-[4-(4-iodophenyl)piperidino]cyclohexanol ((+)-pIV), with a high affinity for sigma receptors and prepared

BACKGROUND Sigma receptors are overexpressed in a variety of human tumors, making them potential targets for radionuclide receptor therapy. We have previously synthesized and evaluated (131)I-labeled (+)-2-[4-(4-iodophenyl)piperidino]cyclohexanol [(+)-[(131)I]pIV], which has a high affinity for
