Combretastatin A-4 exhibits efficient anti-cancer potential in human tumors, including multidrug-resistant tumors. We evaluated the mutagenic, apoptotic and immunomodulatory potential of two diaryl sulfide analogs of combretastatin A-4, 1,2,3-trimethoxy-5-([4-methoxy-3-nitrophenyl]thio)benzene (analog 1) and 1,2,3-trimethoxy-5-([3-amino-4-methoxyphenyl]thio)benzene (analog 2), as well as their association with the anti-tumor agent cyclophosphamide, in Swiss mice. Such evaluation was achieved using the comet assay, peripheral blood micronucleus test, splenic phagocytosis assay, and apoptosis assay.
