Journal ArticleDOI

Synthesis and Evaluation of Indenoisoquinoline Topoisomerase I Inhibitors Substituted with Nitrogen Heterocycles

TL;DR: Molecular modeling of these compounds in complex with DNA and Top1 suggests that some of the lactam substituents are capable of interacting with the DNA base pairs above and below the site of intercalation and/or with Top1 amino acid residues, resulting in increased biological activity.
Journal Article

Topoisomerase II-mediated DNA damage produced by 4'-(9-acridinylamino)methanesulfon-m-anisidide and related acridines in L1210 cells and isolated nuclei: relation to cytotoxicity.

TL;DR: Evidence is found for a causal relationship between drug-induced topoisomerase II-mediated DNA breaks and cytotoxicity between m-AMSA and several acridine analogues in adult acute leukemia.
Journal ArticleDOI

Apoptosis induced by DNA topoisomerase I and II inhibitors in human leukemic HL-60 cells.

TL;DR: Better understanding of the apoptotic regulation in the widely used and characterized HL-60 cell line should allow the identification of new mechanisms and parameters of cellular sensitivity and resistance to the cytotoxic activity of anticancer agents.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tyrosyl-DNA Phosphodiesterase 1 (Tdp1) inhibitors

TL;DR: Better understanding of Top1cc repair in vivo coupled with detailed structural studies on TDP1–inhibitor interaction will be crucial in guiding the rational design of Tdp1 inhibitors, which should synergize not only with Top1-targeting drugs, but also with bleomycin, topoisomerase II (Top2) inhibitors and DNA alkylating agents.
