Antiproliferative and apoptosis-inducing activities of novel naphthalimide-cyclam conjugates through dual topoisomerase (topo) I/II inhibition.

Abstract:

:A novel series of naphthalimide-cyclam conjugates were designed and synthesized. Among them, compounds 4c, 4d, 8c and 8d which bearing long lipophilic alkyl chains, displayed comparable or more potent cytotoxic activities against human tumor cell lines than amonafide. Furthermore, the four compounds were proved to possess strong inhibition against both topoisomerase I and II. The representative compound 8c exhibited moderate DNA intercalation activity. Molecular modeling studies identified the possible interaction of compound 8c with the molecular target by forming topoisomerase/DNA/drug ternary complex. Finally, derivatives with long lipophilic alkyl chains could efficiently induce apoptosis.
