Popis: | A family of 1,4-benzodiazepine-2,5-diones (BZDs) has been synthesized and evaluated against transformed B- and T-cells for lymphotoxic members. A large aromatic group on the C3 position is critical for cytotoxicity. When the C3 moiety contains an electron-rich heterocycle, the resulting BZDs have sub-micromolar potency and are selective for T-cells. Cell death is consistent with apoptosis and does not result from inhibition of the mitochondrial F o F 1 -ATPase, which is the molecular target of recently reported cytotoxic 1,4-benzodiazepines. Collectively, these studies begin to characterize some of the structural elements required for the activity of a novel family of T-cell-selective lymphotoxic agents. |
