Abstract:
A new series of glycosyl oxadiazoles compounds were synthesized and characterized through (1)H NMR, (13)C NMR, IR and HRMS. The anti-tumor activities for MDA-MB-231 of all these new compounds were screened in vitro by MTT assay. Due to the modification of gastrodin analogues, the anti-tumor activities of these 1,3,4-oxadiazoles derivatives were greatly improved. Six compounds (6 c, 6 d, 6 i, 6 j, 6 k and 6 l) displayed relatively higher MDA-MB-231 potency with IC50 values (0.89, 0.26, 1.35, 3.60, 0.95 and 1.08 μM) compared with the reference medicine Rosiglitazone (5.23 μM).

Cancer Therapies
However, cancer treatments can pose several challenges, as therapies used to kill cancer cells are generally also toxic to normal cells. Moreover, cancer cells mutate rapidly and can develop resistance to chemical agents or radiation therapy. Besides, all types of cancer cells may not respond to the same therapy. Some cancer cells respond to one...
