It was shown, that cultured ex vivo human T-Lymphoblastoid (CEM) cells respond to synthesized thiocolchicine and fluorine thiocolchicine derivatives. The preparation of derivatives with substitution at C-3 and C-7 is described. All compounds were used at concentration from 1 nM

Thiocolchicine, a colchicine analog in which the C-10 methoxy is replaced with a thiomethyl moiety, was shown to bind with high affinity to the colchicine site on tubulin (Ka = 1.07 +/- 0.14 x 10(6) M-1 at 23 degrees C).

Esterification of the phenolic group in 3-demethylthiocolchicine and exchange of the N-acetyl group with other N-acyl groups or a N-carbalkoxy group afforded many compounds which showed superior activity over the parent drug as inhibitors of tubulin polymerization and of the
Three new 7-0-substituted deacetamidothiocolchicine derivatives have been evaluated for their antitumor activity against various human tumor cell lines, some of which express the multidrug resistance (MDR) phenotype, for their impact on the cell cycle and their binding to tubulin. Colchicine
Several B-ring variations of O-methyl androbiphenyline (8), newly accessible from (-)-(M,7S)-colchicine via photooxygenation and subsequent endoperoxide-transformation, were synthesized and evaluated for their inhibitory effects on tubulin assembly in vitro. The amino-allocolchicinoid (9), a key compound in this study, was transformed
