L. Pistelli et al., SYNTHESIS AND BIOLOGICAL-ACTIVITY OF A SERIES OF ISOINDOLONE DERIVATIVES RELATED TO CYTOCHALASINS, Il Farmaco, 51(6), 1996, pp. 401-406
A series of hydrogenated isoindolone derivatives structurally related
to cytochalasin B has been synthesized and their ability to induce bin
ucleation in the human lymphocytes were tested. All compounds were fou
nd able to inhibit cell cytokinesis at different extent in the range (
3.12-25 mu mol/l) respect to the negative control; however the highest
percentage of binucleated cells is induced by Cyt B.
