·The potent antitumor activities of 3-arylisoquinolines promoted us to explore the structure-activity relationship of these compounds. A series of 3-arylisoquinoline derivatives were evaluated for antitumor cytotoxicity against human lung tumor cell (A 549). For the next stage, we decided to prepare the constrained form of 3-arylisoquinolines as indeno[1,2-c]isoquinolines. As a result, diverse spectrum against human tumor cell lines was obtained. In order to study structure-activity relationship (SAT) of these compounds the comparative molecular field analysis (CoMFA) was carried out. (omitted)

To find out the novel anticancer agent for the treatment of solid tumors, 1-arylsulfonyl-2-alkoxy-4-arylimidazolines were designed and prepared from substituted styrenes through three steps. Compared to 5-fluorouracil, these analogues exhibit moderate cytotoxicity against human solid tumor cell lines, A-549(lung carcinoma) and SK-Mel-2(malignant melanoma). The structure-activity relationship indicates the high potential of this series for the development of novel antineoplastic agent.

For the development of novel antitumor agents, we designed and synthesized terpyridines, and their biological activities were evaluated. Although most of the newly prepared terpyridines showed strong cytotoxicity against several human cancer cell lines, [2,2';6',2"]-terpyridine displayed the most significant cytotoxicity.

Thirty-eight 5-arylidene-2(5H)-furanone derivatives possessing halo-, methoxy-, oxo-, dioxo-, and thiophenyl groups as well as anthraquinone and naphthquinone moieties were synthesized, and their cytotoxicity was evaluated against various cancer cell lines. The introduction of halogen atoms or nitro group at aromatic ring of 5-arylidene-2(5H)-furanone was shown to increase the cytotoxicity with 5-(3-nitrobenzylidene )-2(5H)-furanone (21) being the most potent. Among anthracenyl or naphthalenyl derivatives, (E)-5-[2-(1 ,4-dimethoxy-9, 10-dioxo) anthracenyl]-2(5H)-furanone (34) showed the most potent cytotoxic activity.

Recent study indicated that terpyridine and its derivatives displayed highly active antitumor properties. In this presentation. derivatives of terpyridines having three pyridine moieties at 2',4',6'-position of central pyridine skeleton were prepared, and evaluated their cytotoxicity against several human cancer cell lines and topoisomerase I inhibitory activities. Most of the prepared compounds showed strong cytotoxicity compared to doxorubicln. In addition. several compounds displayed better cytotoxicity than that of doxorubicin. In addition, several compounds displayed better cytotoxicity than that of doxorubicin. Structure-activity relationship study was perfomed to be indicated that [2.2':6',2']terpyidine skeleton is important to show strong xytotoxicity. Significant topoxicity. Significant topoisomerase I inhibitory activity was not observed for prepared compounds.

Many attention has been focused on developing new chemotherapeutic agents for a treatment of cancer from natural products. From Carpesium divaricatum S. et Z. (Compositae), various monoterpenoid compounds were isolated and exhibited mild antitumor activity against human tumor cell lines. These facts prompted us to explore the structure-activity relationship of these compounds. The synthesis of monoterpenoid compound was accomplished by Fries rearrangement, Grignard reaction, elimination, allylic oxidation, esterification and epoxidation as key steps. The results of in vitro cytotoxicity (A549, SK-OV-3, SK-MEL-2, XF498, HCT15) of the synthesised compounds are as follows: First of all, epoxide moiety is prerequisite for cytotoxic activity in diester compound. Any kind of compounds with olefin or diol moiety instead of epoxide ring exhibited poor or mild cytotoxic activity respectively. Of o-acetoxy and isobutoxy epoxy esters, p-sub-stituted phenylacetate compounds exhibited high cytotoxic activities against SK-MEL-2 and HCT15.

A series of substituted 2-arylnaphthyridin-4-one analogues, which were previously synthesized in our laboratory, were evaluated for their in vitro cytotoxic activity against human lung cancer A549 and human renal cancer Caki-2 cells using MTT assay. Some compounds (11, 12, and 13) showed stronger cytotoxicity than colchicine against both tumor cell lines, and compound 13 exhibited the most potent activity with $IC_{50}$ values of 2.3 and $13.4\;{\mu}M$, respectively. Three-dimensional quantitative structure activity relationship (3D-QSAR) studies of comparative molecular field analysis (CoMFA) and comparative molecular similarity indices analysis (CoMSIA) were performed. Predictive 3D-QSAR models were obtained with $q^2$ values of 0.869 and 0.872 and $r^2_{ncv}$ values of 0.983 and 0.993 for CoMFA and CoMSIA, respectively. These results demonstrate that CoMFA and CoMSIA models could be reliably used in the design of novel cytotoxic agents.

The structural relationship of 16 asiatic acid (AA) derivatives, including AA and asiaticoside (AS) to cytotoxicity and anti-hepatofibrotic activity in HSC-T6 cells, were investigated. Cytotoxicities of AA derivatives varied from 5.5 $\mu$M to over 2000 $\mu$M of $IC_{50}$/ depending on AA functional group modifications. Substituting the hydroxyl group at the C(2) to N≡C and substituting bulky groups for dihydroxyl groups at (3), (23) of the A-ring increased the cytotoxicity, but keto group at C(11) and benzoyl ester at C(2) were greatly reduced it. Modification of the carboxylic acid group at C28 also reduced the cytotoxicity. The collagen synthesis determined by hydroxyproline content in the cells was inhibited from a maximum of 48% (Zlx-i-85 and 87) to 15% (AS) by AA derivatives. The anti-hepatofibrotic effect of these compounds might be due to the reduced expression of prolyl 4-hydroxylase $\alpha$ and $\beta$ subunits and TIMP2. However, the inhibition of collagen by asiaticoside derivatives did not show any structural-activity relationship.
