Synthesis and in vitro biological evaluation of famesylthiosalicylic acid derivatives as anti-tumor carcinoma agents

Novel farnesylthiosalicylic acid (PTA) derivatives 5a-m with different substituted 1,3,4-thiadiazoles were synthesized. Compounds 5b, 5e, 5e and 5f displayed anti-tumor activities superior to FTA in most cancer cells tested. Furthermore, 5e induced tumor cell apoptosis, which was accompanied by lowe...

Summary:Novel farnesylthiosalicylic acid (PTA) derivatives 5a-m with different substituted 1,3,4-thiadiazoles were synthesized. Compounds 5b, 5e, 5e and 5f displayed anti-tumor activities superior to FTA in most cancer cells tested. Furthermore, 5e induced tumor cell apoptosis, which was accompanied by lower Bcl-2 expression, but with higher Bax and caspase 3 expression activities in cancer cells.
