Hydrogen bond acceptors strongly influence the stemotoxic activity of YM155 analogs (A) Chemical backbone structure of YM155 analogs (left) and six YM155 analogs (right). (B) FACS analysis for Annexin-V/PI staining after treatment of indicated compounds, Percentages of live cells (Annexin-V negative and PI negative Cells) were presented as bar graph (right) (n = 6) (P < 0.05 (*), 0.0001 (****)). (C) FACS analysis for Annexin-V/7-AAD staining after indicative concentration of YM155 and YM155 analogs (5e or 5f) (left). Percentages of live cells (Annexin-V negative and 7-AAD negative Cells) were presented as bar graph (right). (D) Light microscopic images after treatment of 20 nM of YM155 and YM155 analogs (Scale bar = 500 μm). (E) Immunoblotting analysis for PARP-1 and cleaved caspase 3 (C.Casp3) after indicative concentration of YM155 analogs, α-tubulin for equal protein loading control.
