Activation of Intrinsic Apoptosis and G1 Cell Cycle Arrest by a Triazole Precursor, N-(4-chlorophenyl)-2-(4-(3,4,5-trimethoxybenzyloxy)benzoyl)-hydrazinecarbothioamide in Breast Cancer Cell Line.

Background: Oxadiazoles, triazoles, and their respective precursors have been shown to exhibit various pharmacological properties, namely antitumour activities. Cytotoxic activity was reported for these compounds in various cancer cell lines.

Aim And Objectives: In this study, we aim at investigating the mechanism of apoptosis by N-(4-chlorophenyl)-2-(4- (3,4,5-trimethoxybenzyloxy)benzoyl)-hydrazinecarbothioamide, a triazole precursor, henceforth termed compound P7a, in breast cancer cell line, MCF-7.
