This research aims to synthesize and evaluate the cytotoxic effects of nucleolipid derivatives based on adenosine in glioma and glioblastoma cell lines.
Synthesis of twenty O-2′,3′-ketalized nucleolipid derivatives with varying alkyl chain lengths.
Assessment of lipophilicity using the octanol/water partition method.
Cytotoxicity screening in rat/human glioma cell lines (BT4Ca/GOS-3) and human glioblastoma cell lines (U87, U251), comparing effects with 5-fluorouridine and temozolomide.
Several nucleolipid derivatives induced 90–100% cytotoxicity at 50 µM after 48 h.
Cytotoxicity increased with alkyl chain length, peaking for C15–C17 chains.
1,N6-ethenoadenosine ketal derivatives were more effective than standard chemotherapeutics like 5-FUrd and TMZ.
