Abstract
A large group of aminoalkyl and aminoalkanol derivatives of selected dicarboximides were synthesized and characterized by 1HNMR, 13CNMR and ESI MS spectra analysis. The thirty nine new compounds were tested for their cytotoxic properties in human chronic (K562), acute leukemia (HL-60), and cervical cancer cells (HeLa) as well as in normal endothelial cells (HUVEC). The most promising compounds are 4-[2-(dimethylamino)ethyl]-, (diethylamino) ethyl]-, 4-[2-(piperidin-1-yl)ethyl]-, 4-[3-(dimethylamino)propyl]- and 4-[2-hydroxy-3-(propan- 2-ylamino)propyl]- derivatives of 1,7-diethyl-8,9-diphenyl-4-azatricyclo[5.2.1.02,6]dec-8-ene-3,5,10-trione exhibiting high and selective cytotoxicity towards K562 and HL-60 cells (IC50 in the range of 1-10 µM) while being non-toxic towards HUVEC and HeLa cells (IC50> 100 μM). Moreover, the preliminary studies have showed that 4-[2-(piperidin-1-yl)ethyl]- 1,7-diethyl-8,9-diphenyl-4-azatricyclo [5.2.1.02,6]dec-8-ene-3,5,10-trione induces programmed cell death (apoptosis) in leukemia cells.
Keywords: Dicarboximides, cytotoxic properties, HeLa, HL-60, K562, apoptosis.

Induction of cell death in cancer cells by modulating telomerase activity using small molecule drugs
Telomeres are distinctive but short stretches present at the corners of chromosomes and aid in stabilizing chromosomal makeup. Resynthesis of telomeres supported by the activity of reverse transcriptase ribonucleoprotein complex telomerase. There is no any telomerase activity in human somatic cells, but the stem cells and germ cells undergone telomerase ...read more
