Pro-apoptotic meiogynin A derivatives that target Bcl-xL and Mcl-1.
Résumé
The biological evaluation of a natural sesquiterpene dimer meiogynin A 1, is described as well as that of five non-natural analogues. Although active on a micromolar range on the inhibition of Bcl-xL/Bak and Mcl-1/Bid interaction, meiogynin A 1 is not cytotoxic on three cell lines that overexpress Bcl-xL and Mcl-1. Contrarily, one of its analogues 6 with an inverted configuration on the side chain and an aromatic moiety replacing the cyclohexane ring was active on both target proteins, cytotoxic on a micromolar range and was found to induce apoptosis through a classical pathway.
