Inhibition of P53-murine double minute 2 (MDM2) interactions with 3,3′-spirocyclopentene oxindole derivatives
Abstract
3,3′-Spirocyclopentene oxindoles structurally related to Wang’s spiropyrrolidine oxindoles have been highlighted as a new class of antiproliferative agents against cancer cell lines with wild-type p53 status (IC 50 up to 0.96 μM on SJSA-1 and 2.9 μM in HCT116 p53-wt). Inhibition of the MDM2-p53 interactions has been demonstrated through in vitro HTRF assays (IC 50 up to 3.1 nM), while Western blot analysis showed activation of p53 selectively in HCT116 cancer cell lines with wild-type p53.

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.
