Novel nitric oxide-releasing derivatives of triptolide as antitumor and anti-inflammatory agents: Design, synthesis, biological evaluation, and nitric oxide release studies
Abstract
A series of novel triptolide/furoxans hybrids were designed and synthesized as analogues of triptolide, which is a naturally derived compound isolated from the thunder god vine (Tripterygium wilfordii Hook. F). Some of these synthesized compounds exhibited antiproliferative activities in the nanomolar range. Among them, compound 33 exhibited both good antiproliferative activity and NO-releasing ability and the acute toxicity of compound 33 decreased more than 160 times (LD 50 = 160.9 mg/kg) than triptolide. Moreover, compound 33 significantly inhibited the growth of melanoma at a low dose (0.3 mg/kg) and showed strong anti-inflammatory activity in vitro and in vivo. These results indicate that compound 33 could be a promising candidate for further study.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
