N-(2-methyl-indol-1H-5-yl)-1-naphthalenesulfonamide : a novel reversible antimitotic agent inhibiting cancer cell motility

2016

Este es el post-print que se ha publicado de forma definitiva en: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0006295216301423 A series of compounds containing the sulfonamide scaffold were synthesized and screened for their in vitro anticancer activity against a representative panel of human cancer cell lines, leading to the identification of N-(2-methyl-1H-indol-5-yl)-1-naphthalenesulfonamide (8e) as a compound showing a remarkable activity across the panel, with IC50 values in the nanomolar-to-low micromolar range. Cell cycle distribution analysis revealed that 8e promoted a severe G2/M arrest, which was followed by cellular senescence as indicated by the detection of senescen…
