Newly synthesized anticancer drug HUHS 1015 is effective on malignant pleural mesothelioma

The newly synthesized naftopidil analogue HUHS 1015 reduced cell viability in malignant pleural mesothelioma cell lines MSTO ‐211H, NCI ‐H28, NCI ‐H2052, and NCI ‐H2452, with the potential greater than that for the anticancer drugs paclitaxel or cisplatin at concentrations higher than 30 μM. HUHS 10...

Description
Summary:The newly synthesized naftopidil analogue HUHS 1015 reduced cell viability in malignant pleural mesothelioma cell lines MSTO ‐211H, NCI ‐H28, NCI ‐H2052, and NCI ‐H2452, with the potential greater than that for the anticancer drugs paclitaxel or cisplatin at concentrations higher than 30 μM. HUHS 1015 induced both necrosis and apoptosis of MSTO ‐211H and NCI ‐H2052 cells. HUHS 1015 upregulated expression of mRNA s for Puma, Hrk, and Noxa in MSTO ‐211H and NCI ‐H2052 cells, suggesting HUHS 1015‐induced mitochondrial apoptosis. HUHS 1015 clearly suppressed tumor growth in mice inoculated with NCI ‐H2052 cells. Taken together, the results of the present study indicate that HUH S1015 could be developed as an effective anticancer drug for treatment of malignant pleural mesothelioma. HUHS 1015 was newly synthesized as an anticancer drug. HUHS 1015 induces apoptosis of malignant pleural mesothelioma cells with the potential greater than paclitaxel. HUHS 1015 could be developed as a promising anticancer drug for treatment of malignant pleural mesothelioma.
