Cancer Cell Mitochondria Targeting by Pancratistatin Analogs is Dependent on Functional Complex II and III
21 Feb 2017
Abstract excerpt
Enhanced mitochondrial stability and decreased dependence on oxidative phosphorylation confer an acquired resistance to apoptosis in cancer cells, but may present opportunities for therapeutic intervention. The compound pancratistatin (PST) has been shown to selectively induce apoptosis in cancer cells. However, its low availability in nature has hindered its clinical advancement. We synthesized PST analogs and a...
