Abstract
A convenient and mild method for the synthesis of substituted furano [3,2-c]tetrahydroquinoline derivatives was developed, using the multi-component Povarov reaction. Of the synthesized tetrahydroquinoline derivatives, compound 10a displayed the greatest cellular proliferation inhibitory activities with IC50 values of 2.5–16.7 μmol/l. In addition, 10a induced murine C6 glioma cell apoptosis in a dose-dependent manner by up-regulating the expression of Bax, caspase-3, and caspase-9, and by down-regulating Bcl-2. Our findings suggest that these novel compounds have potential as therapeutic agents via inducing mitochondrial apoptosis.
