title: Synthesis and biological evaluation of novel cytotoxic phospholipids for prostate cancer.
abstract: We describe herein synthesis, SAR, and biological evaluation of a novel series of cytotoxic serine amide phosphates (SAPs) for prostate cancer. These compounds were tested for their cytotoxicity in five human prostate cancer cell lines (DU-145, PC-3, LNCaP, PPC-1, and TSU), and in CHO and RH7777 cells (negative controls). Comparison of anticancer effects of these compounds with a standard chemotherapeutic agent 5-fluorouracil shows that they are very effective in killing prostate cancer cells with low micromolar cytotoxicity and provide us a new lead for the development of drugs for prostate cancer.
