Аннотация:In recent decades, indolocarbazole glycosides containing sugar moieties have attracted attention due to their diverse anti-tumor activities. In the present study, a series of new indolo [2,3-a]pyrrolo [3,4-c]carbazole derivatives were synthesized for the first time. First of all, we have shown that compound 6e (LCS1269) had the most pronounced effect on inhibiting tumor growth in the transferable solid and non-solid murine tumors as compared with other synthesized indolocarbazole derivatives. The results of the in vivo nude mice xenoraft study also confirmed that LCS1269 treatment strongly suppressed the growth of human colon cancer SW620 xenografts. It is important to note that the antiproliferative activity of LCS1269 against three human cancer cell lines (MCF-7, HCT-116 and A549) was considerably higher than that against the non-tumor cell lines (immortalized breast cells and normal embryonic fibroblasts). Furthermore, the treatment of MCF-7, HCT-116 and A549 cells with LCS1269 caused the statistically significant inhibition of anchorage-dependent and anchorage-independent colony formation. We further revealed that LCS1269 treatment of investigated human cancer cells resulted in the DNA damage and G2/M cell cycle arrest followed by the decrease of mitochondrial membrane potential with subsequent initiation of intrinsic apoptosis and the triggering of senescence.
