ABSTRACT
Nine new platelet activating factor (PAF) antagonists from 4 different chemical classes (thiopyrimidines SDZ 59-015; thioimidazolines SDZ 61-813; imidazoisoquinolines SDZ 62-434, SDZ 62-759, SDZ 63-135, SDZ 63-596; and imidazopiperidines SDZ 61-638, SDZ 62-293, SDZ 62-694) have been tested for cytostatic/antiproliferative ([3H]thymidine uptake) and cytotoxic (trypan blue dye exclusion) activity in neoplastic human cell lines of different histology in vitro. The antiproliferative activity of 3 of the 9 PAF antagonists (SDZ 61-638, SDZ 61-813, SDZ 62-694) was not stable after freezing and thawing. SDZ 59-015 showed only minor cytotoxic or antiproliferative effects in a dose range of 2-40 microns after 24, 48, and 72 h of incubation. SDZ 62-434 showed varying activity. There were no significant differences between the activities of the other 3 PAF antagonists from the imidazoisoquinoline class, which showed drug concentrations inhibiting 50% of the activity studied (IC50) and drug concentrations yielding a 50% decrease of trypan blue dye exclusion (LC50) of less than or equal to 20 microM at greater than or equal to 48 h, even in the K-562 cell line, which is known to be rather resistant for a variety of cytotoxic drugs related to PAF. SDZ 62-293 showed the best antineoplastic properties with IC50 and LC50 values less than or equal to 10 microM at greater than or equal to 48 h including K-562. SDZ 62-434, SDZ 62-759, SDZ 63-135, SDZ 63-596, and SDZ 62-293 have been further tested in a human tumor cloning assay in 5 cell lines. Colony formation was reproducibly suppressed to less than 30% of the controls only by SDZ 63-135 (less than or equal to 40 microM) and SDZ 62-293 (less than or equal to 20 microM) during continuous exposure. There was no correlation between the IC50 values for the antiproliferative activity of the test compounds and their IC50 values for PAF-induced human platelet aggregation. Furthermore, the antiproliferative activity of the most active compound, SDZ 62-293, could not be antagonized by preincubation with the specific PAF antagonists WEB 2170 or WEB 2086 or PAF itself in noncytotoxic doses.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)
