ABSTRACT
Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) keeps on the leading cause of cancer mortality world widely, while there is lack of efficient therapeutic drugs especially for the resistant ones. In this work, a compound named penindolone (PND) with new skeleton was found to show weak inhibitory effect (IC50 = 42.5 µM) on H69AR cells (SCLC, adriamycin-resistant) proliferation by screening our in-house compound library. With the aim of improving its low potency, a series of PND derivatives were synthesized and biologically evaluated by the Sulforhodamine B (SRB) assay. Among all tested derivatives, compound 5h possessed higher antiproliferation potency (IC50 = 1.6 µM). Furthermore, preliminary mechanism investigation revealed that 5h was able to induce apoptosis and arrest the cell cycle at G0/G1 phase. These findings suggest that this novel skeleton has expanded the anti-SCLC compound reservoir and provided a new drug lead.
