✦ Synopsis


Novel arylethynyltriazole acyclonucleosides were synthesized and assessed for their anticancer activity on drug-resistant pancreatic cancer MiaPaCa-2 cells. One lead compound was found to have much more potent apoptosis-related antiproliferative effects than gemcitabine, the current first-line treatment for pancreatic cancer. Further investigations showed that this active compound did not inhibit DNA synthesis, which means that it does not resemble gemcitabine and may involve a different mechanism of action.

AR4-2J, a rat pancreatic acinar-tumor cell line, was used to investigate long-term effects of basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) and somatostatin on pancreatic cancer cells. We observed that bFGF stimulated cell proliferation when cells were cultured in serum-free medium. The effect was dose-depe

## Abstract During our search for cancer chemopreventing compounds derived from plant sources, we discovered that the natural product GUT‐70, isolated from the stem bark of __Calophyllum brasiliense__ collected in Brazil, significantly inhibits the growth of leukemic cells. GUT‐70, characterized as
