Design of antineoplastic agents on the basis of the "2-phenylnaphthalene-type" structural pattern. 2. Synthesis and biological activity studies of benzo]b]naphtho[2,3-d]furan-6,11-dione derivatives.
Based on the "2-phenylnaphthalene-type" structural pattern hypothesis developed in our laboratory, a number of benzo[b]naphtho[2,3-d]furan-6,11-diones were designed, synthesized, and evaluated in vitro for their inhibitory action against the growth of human promyelocytic leukemia cells (HL-60), small-cell lung cancer (SCLC), SCLC cells resistant to cisplatin (SCLC/CDDP), National Cancer Institute's disease-oriented primary antitumor 60 cell-line panel, and drug-stimulated topoisomerase II-mediated DNA cleavages. Many compounds designed were found to possess potent activity in one or more of the biological tests. In general, activity found in one of the cell lines tested is often echoed in other cell lines and many also expressed substantial inhibitory activity against topoisomerase II-mediated cleavage activities. One of these compounds, 3-[2-(dimethylamino)ethoxy]-1-hydroxybenzo[b]naphthol[2,3-d]furan- 6,11-dione (8j), exhibited strong inhibitory activity throughout the entire series of test panel. Thus, it appears that the proposed structural pattern hypothesis has received substantial support through experimental verification.
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 9. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 28 December 2023.
All research outputs
#5,176,210
of 34,518,147 outputs
Outputs from Journal of Medicinal Chemistry
#7,887
of 28,371 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#18,679
of 178,195 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Journal of Medicinal Chemistry
#1,915
of 9,234 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 34,518,147 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 83rd percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 28,371 research outputs from this source. They typically receive more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 8.7. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 57% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 178,195 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done well, scoring higher than 80% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 9,234 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 58% of its contemporaries.
