Biological assessment of new tetrahydroacridine derivatives with fluorobenzoic moiety in vitro on A549 and HT-29 cell lines and in vivo on animal model

A new series of tetrahydroacridine derivatives with the fluorobenzoyl moiety was synthesized and evaluated for cytotoxic activity against lung cancer cell lines A549 and colorectal cancer HT29. The cytotoxic activity of the compounds was compared on the somatic cell line-EAhy926. Compounds showed high cytotoxic activity on A549 cells (IC50 183.26-68.07 μM) and HT29 cells (IC50 68.41-19.70 μM), higher than controls-etoposide (IC50 451.47 μM)...
