  • Use of 7-nitro-2,1,3 benzoxadiazole derivatives for anticancer therapy
    Publication number: 20060247284
    Abstract: Derivatives of the heterocyclic compound known as 7-nitro-benzofurazan or 7-nitro-2,1,3-benzoxadiazole, are agents having a strong inhibiting activity towards members of the glutathione S-transferase (GST) superfamily that are hyperexpressed in cancer cells, and make them particularly resistant to many stress factors. These compounds are useful in the production of pharmaceutical drugs to be used in anticancer therapy, and may be employed either alone or in combination with other chemotherapeutic agents.
