Title: A new family of quinoline and quinoxaline analogues of combretastatins.
Authors: Pérez-Melero C, Maya AB, del Rey B, Peláez R, Caballero E, Medarde M.
Abstract: The 3-hydroxy-4-methoxyphenyl ring of combretastatin A-4 can be replaced by a 2-naphthyl moiety without significant loss of cytotoxicity and inhibition of tubulin polymerization potency. In this paper we show that the 6- or 7-quinolyl systems can in turn replace both cyclic moieties, keeping in the first case most of the potency as cytotoxic agent and in the second case as inhibitor of tubulin polymerization, related to the activities displayed by model compounds.
