Biochem/physiol Actions

Kazusamycin A, an unsaturated branched chain fatty acid with a terminal lactone ring, is a hydroxy analog of Leptomycin B. It has significant in vitro cytotoxic activity against various human and mouse tumor lines encompassing a wide range of tissue types. Kazusamycin A exhibits in vivo antitumor activity against experimental murine tumors. It inhibits nuclear export and Rev translocation, a regulatory gene product in the HIV genome, at nanomolar concentrations.

Novel kazusamycin A derivatives were designed in the viewpoint of decrease of reactivity at the alpha,beta-unsaturated delta-lactone moiety against Michael-type addition. Although 25-30 steps were required for the synthesis of each compound, their syntheses were achieved. Cytotoxicity against HPAC cell
