Apoptosis induced by Picolinic Acid-related Compounds in HL-60 Cells

Received April 16, 2001; Accepted June 4, 2001
We have found that niacin-related compounds, particularly picolinic
acid, induced apoptosis in human leukemia cells. In this paper, we
investigated whether various picolinic acid-related compounds had
apoptosis-inducing activities or not. Particularly, fusaric acid,
picolinaldehyde, nicotinaldehyde, 2-aminopyridine, and 3-aminopyridine
also induced apoptosis in HL-60 cells. These results suggest that
pyridine substituted with various groups and the consequent change of
resonance structure may have an important role in the induction of
apoptosis.
Key words: niacin; picolinic acid; NAD; apoptosis; HL-60

Who loves ya.
