MSBA-S – A pentacyclic sulfamate as a new option for radiotherapy of human breast cancer cells

Many pentacyclic triterpenoids show anti-cancer and anti-inflammatory properties. Recently, we detected a pronounced cytotoxicity and radiosensitivity of two betulinyl sulfamates in human breast cancer cells. Besides betulinic acid scaffold (BSBA-S), we synthesized several new sulfamate-coupled scaffolds from oleanolic acid (OSBA-S), ursolic acid (USBA-S), platanic acid (PSBA-S) and maslinic acid (MSBA-S). Highest cytotoxicity was monitored in...
