Abstract:Application of organic heterocyclic compounds as anti-tumor therapeutics are limited due to therapeutic drawbacks including resistance of tumor cells, nonselectivity of the administered drug towards healthy cells and abundance of unwanted side effects. The aim of our research was to investigate and compare both the antitumor effect and the mechanism of action of newly synthesized, so far untested chalcone analogue on HeLa, HCT-116 cells and healthy human fibroblast lung cell line (MRC-5). The antitumor efficie… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
