and Effects of Synthesis Novel Phenoxyacetamide Derivatives as Potent Apoptotic Inducer against HepG2 Cells through PARP-1 Inhibition.

To discover potential cytotoxic agents, new semi-synthetic phenoxy acetamide derivatives, compound I and compound II, were synthesized, characterized, and screened for their cytotoxic activity against breast cancer (MCF-7) and liver cancer (HepG2) cell lines. The two compounds were more promising against HepG2 than the MCF-7 cell line according to IC values. When tested against the HepG2 cell line, compound I, and compound II both had significantly increased cytotoxic activity when compared to the reference medication 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU), with IC values of 1.
