Tumor-specificity and Type of Cell Death Induced by Vitamin K2 Derivatives and Prenylalcohols
Fourteen vitamin K 2 (menaquinone (MK)-n, n=1~14) and ten prenylalcohol derivatives (n=1~10) with different numbers (n) of isoprenyl groups in the side chains were investigated for their cytotoxicity against nine human tumor cell lines and three human normal oral cells. Among the vitamin K 2 derivat...

Zusammenfassung: | Fourteen vitamin K 2 (menaquinone (MK)-n, n=1~14) and ten prenylalcohol derivatives (n=1~10) with different numbers (n) of isoprenyl groups in
the side chains were investigated for their cytotoxicity against nine human tumor cell lines and three human normal oral cells.
Among the vitamin K 2 derivatives, MK-2 (n=2) showed the greatest cytotoxicity, followed by MK-1 (n=1) and MK-3 (n=3). MK-1, MK-2 and MK-3 showed
the highest tumor-specific index (TS= >2.0, 2.0 and >1.7, respectively). Among the prenylalcohols, geranylgeraniol (GG) (n=4)
showed the highest cytotoxicity, followed by farnesol (n=3) and geranylfarnesol (GF) (n=3). GG showed the highest tumor-specificity
(TS=1.8), followed by farnesol (TS=>1.4), GF (TS=> |
