Renal Selective Unsaturated Englerin Analogues
Englerin A, a natural product, has shown growth-inhibiting activity against renal cancer cell lines. The compound is an agonist of protein kinase C (PCK) theta, which results in cell cytotoxicity, insulin inhibition, and selective activation of viral replication in T cells. Englerin A derivatives are promising treatment strategies for any diseases associated with PKC theta and/or ion channel proteins.
