摘要
Small molecules such as indoles are attractive as inhibitors of tubulin polymerization. Thus a number of 2-phenylindole-3-carbaldehydes with lipophilic substituents in both aromatic rings was synthesized and evaluated for antitumor activity in MDA-MB 231 and MCF-7 breast cancer cells. Some 5-alkylindole derivatives with a 4-methoxy group in the 2-phenyl ring strongly inhibit the growth of breast cancer cells with IC50 values of 5-20 nM. Their action can be rationalized by the cell cycle arrest in G(2)/M phase due to the inhibition of tubulin polymerization. (c) 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
