Enhancement of 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate-induced tumor necrosis factor alpha production by phenethylphthalimide analogs

Biol Pharm Bull. 1994 Sep;17(9):1313-5. doi: 10.1248/bpb.17.1313.

Abstract

Effects of phenyl-, benzyl-, phenethyl-, and phenylpropylphthalimides on 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA)-induced tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha production by human leukemia cell line HL-60 were examined. Among the four phthalimide derivatives, only phenethylphthalimide showed potent enhancing effect on TNF-alpha production.
