Popis: Pyroptosis is a novel manner of cell death that can be mediated by chemotherapy drugs. The awareness of pyroptosis is significantly increasing in the fields of anti-tumor research and chemotherapy drugs. Invoking the occurrence of pyroptosis is an attractive prospect for the treatment of lung cancer. Here, the compound L61H10 was obtained as a thiopyran derivative to compare its activity with curcumin. It was indicated that L61H10 exhibited good anti-tumor activity both in vitro and in vivo via the switch of apoptosis-to-pyroptosis, which was associated with the NF-κB signaling pathway. In addition, L61H10 had no obvious side effects both in vitro and in vivo. In brief, L61H10 is shown to be a potential anti-lung cancer agent and research on its anti-tumor mechanism provides new information for chemotherapy drug research.
