Abstract
The repair enzyme O6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT) eliminates alkyl lesions that play the main anticancer role in alkylating chemotherapy. The inhibition of MGMT leads to increasing effectiveness of alkylating chemotherapy. In this study, new potential MGMT inhibitors were tested. It was found that some compounds demonstrate low cytotoxicity and high effectiveness in human cells in vitro.
