Benzylidenespirostanols were prepared by two-step synthesis including BF3·Et2O-catalyzed aldol condensation of several acetylated steroid sapogenins with benzaldehyde followed by saponification. The obtained compounds showed moderate cytotoxicity against three cancer cell lines (T-lymphoblastic leukemia cell line CEM, breast carcinoma cell line MCF7 and cervical carcinoma cell line HeLa) and normal...
Thirteen monohydroxylated brassinosteroids analogues were synthesized and tested for their biological activity in plant and animal systems. The cytotoxic activity of the products was studied using human normal and cancer cell lines with 28-homocastasterone as positive control, their brassinolide type activity was established using the bean second-internode test with 24-epibrassinolide as standard.
We describe the synthesis of steroidal dendrimer conjugates of first and second generation with tetramethylene core and 5-hydroxy-isophtalic acid dimethyl ester as branching unit modified to incorporate ethynylestradiol or 17α-estradiol as terminal units. The steroidal dendrimer conjugates, the free drug (steroids) and dendrimer were tested against a panel of cancer cell lines (CEM, MCF7, HeLa) and...
Antiangiogenic activity of the brassinosteroid plant hormones (BRs) and their derivative cholestanon was investigated in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) and in human microvascular endothelial cells (HMEC-1). 24-Epibrassinolide and 28-homocastasterone from group of 21 tested natural BRs inhibited migration of HUVEC cells. Seven tested BRs decreased the number of tubes significantly....
