5-Cinnamoyl-6-aminouracil derivatives as novel anticancer agents. Synthesis, biological evaluation, and structure-activity relationships. 1985

J L Bernier, and J P Hénichart, and V Warin, and C Trentesaux, and J C Jardillier

A biological evaluation in the series of 5-cinnamoyl-6-aminouracils has been undertaken. These compounds have been found to be in an extended planar conformation fitting well with a possible stacking interaction between the nucleic bases of DNA; thus an eventual anticancer activity by intercalation could be hoped. 1,3-Dimethyl-5-cinnamoyl-6-aminouracil was found to be active when administered ip against ip-implanted P388 leukemia in vivo (percent T/C = 124). Two other compounds, 1,3-dimethyl-5-cinnamoyl-6-[(2-morpholinoethyl)amino]uracil and 1,3-dimethyl-5-cinnamoyl-6-[(2-piperidinoethyl)amino]uracil, bearing a hydrophilic side chain on the 6-amino group, have exhibited cytoxic activity in vitro against L1210 leukemia. Structure-activity relationships have been determined from these results and from studies of biological interactions with DNA.

D004247 DNA A deoxyribonucleotide polymer that is the primary genetic material of all cells. Eukaryotic and prokaryotic organisms normally contain DNA in a double-stranded state, yet several important biological processes transiently involve single-stranded regions. DNA, which consists of a polysugar-phosphate backbone possessing projections of purines (adenine and guanine) and pyrimidines (thymine and cytosine), forms a double helix that is held together by hydrogen bonds between these purines and pyrimidines (adenine to thymine and guanine to cytosine).

D004578 Electron Spin Resonance Spectroscopy A technique applicable to the wide variety of substances which exhibit paramagnetism because of the magnetic moments of unpaired electrons. The spectra are useful for detection and identification, for determination of electron structure, for study of interactions between molecules, and for measurement of nuclear spins and moments. (From McGraw-Hill Encyclopedia of Science and Technology, 7th edition) Electron nuclear double resonance (ENDOR) spectroscopy is a variant of the technique which can give enhanced resolution. Electron spin resonance analysis can now be used in vivo, including imaging applications such as MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING.
