Design, Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of C(6)-Modified Celastrol Derivatives as Potential Antitumor Agents

New six C6-celastrol derivatives were designed, synthesized, and evaluated for their in vitro cytotoxic activities against nine human cancer cell lines (BGC-823, H4, Bel7402, H522, Colo 205, HepG2 and MDA-MB-468). The results showed that most of the compounds displayed potent inhibition against BGC8...
