Synthesis and evaluation of microtubule assembly inhibition and cytotoxicity of prenylated derivatives of cyclo-l-Trp-l-Pro Original Research Article

The synthesis of three isoprenylated derivatives of cyclo-l-Trp-l-Pro is described. These substances have been evaluated for cytotoxic activity in rat normal fibroblast 3Y1 cells and have also been evaluated in vitro for the inhibition of microtubule assembly.
