Chlorpromazine (CPZ) was exposed to a 266 nm laser beam for different periods of time ranging from minutes to 24 h. At intervals, the products from irradiation were evaluated by thin-layer chromatography (TLC) and evaluated for their activity against mycobacteria of human interest (Mycobacterium tuberculosis, M. avium, M. intracellulare and their corresponding reference strains or clinical isolates).

Rapid, laser-induced conversion of 20-hydroxyecdysone and its diacetonide — experimental set-up of a system for photochemical transformation of bioactive substances.

  • Authors: Alexandru T, Amaral L, Andrei IR, Boni M, Danko B, Hunyadi A, Militaru A, Nastasa V, Pascu ML
  • Journal: Anticancer Research
  • Link: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22493361

BACKGROUND:
Photochemical transformation of certain bioactive compounds for the purpose of obtaining derivatives with increased bioactivity is a prospective area of synthetic chemistry. Ecdysteroids, analogs of the insect molting hormone, which can also exert several beneficial effects in mammals including humans, contain an enone moiety in their B ring, and, as such, are good candidates for photochemical transformations.

In vitro cytotoxic activity of novel protoflavone analogs – selectivity towards a multidrug resistant cancer cell line.

BACKGROUND:
Protoapigenone (PA), a natural flavonoid possessing an unusual p-quinol moiety on its B ring, is a prospective novel lead compound against cancer currently in development, together with WYC0209, a potent synthetic PA analog. Structure activity relationships (SAR) concerning different 1′-O-alkyl side-chains were also studied on two sets of derivatives.
