Gm. Dubowchik et al., THE IN-VITRO EFFECTS OF 3 LYSOSOMOTROPIC DETERGENTS AGAINST 3 HUMAN TUMOR-CELL LINES, Bioorganic & medicinal chemistry letters, 5(8), 1995, pp. 893-898
Three lysosomotropic detergents, N-dodecylimidazole (NDI) 1, and two n
ew analogues, serine dodecylamide (SDA) 2 and O-methyl serine dodecyla
mide (MSD) 3, were tested against three human tumor cell lines in vitr
o: HCT116, RCA and MCF-7. All three demonstrated dose-related cytotoxi
city which, except for a few cases, was also dependent on incubation t
ime, and visually resembled cell death by apoptosis.
