Title: [Studies on semi-synthesis of cephalotaxine esters and correlation of their structures with antitumor activity]. Author: Zhong SB, Liu WC, Li RL, Ling YZ, Li CH, Tu GZ, Ma LB, Hong SL. Journal: Yao Xue Xue Bao; 1994; 29(1):33-8. PubMed ID: 8036899. Abstract: Ten esters of cephalotaxine with amino acids possessing widely different structural features have been synthesized and tested for antitumor activity. Preliminary data showed that compound 6 is the most active one. However, it is still less potent than harringtonine. Other synthetic esters possess varying activities at 10 micrograms/ml. Preliminary structure activity relationship of these esters was discussed.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
