| Popis: | Background: Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress is a therapeutic target in cancer given its regulation of bioenergetics and cell death. Methodology & results: We synthesized 14 ER stress-triggered anthraquinone derivatives by introducing an amino group at the 3-position side chain of the lead compound obtained previously. Most of the anthraquinone derivatives exhibited good antitumor activity due to their ability to induce ER damage through cytoplasmic vacuoles. The mechanisms of ER stress caused by compound KA-4c were related to increasing the expression levels of the ATF6 and Bip proteins and upregulating CHOP and cleaved PARP. Conclusion: Compound KA-4c triggers ER stress response and induces apoptosis via the ATF6–CHOP signaling pathway. |
