Among them, ergosterol peroxide-3-piperazine-1-ethyl-5-pyrazole showed a strong cytotoxicity with an IC<sub>50</sub> of 3.01 μM against HepG2 cells, which was 6-fold higher than that of ergosterol peroxide. Further study of the mechanisms suggests that ergosterol peroxide-3-piperazine-1-ethyl-5-pyrazole had a total apoptosis rate of 61.04% at a concentration of 6 μM and promotes reactive oxygen species (ROS) production in a dose-dependent manner in HepG2 cells. These findings suggest that the apoptosis and the generation of ROS may be two key indicators of oxidative stress induced by ergosterol peroxide-3-piperazine-1-ethyl-5-pyrazole. Based on these results, we further explored the molecular docking between ergosterol peroxide-3-piperazine-1-ethyl-5-pyrazole and heat shock protein 90 (HSP90), discovering a strong binding affinity between them. This suggests that ergosterol peroxide-3-piperazine-1-ethyl-5-pyrazole may exert its antitumor effects through oxidative stress.</p>","PeriodicalId":761,"journal":{"name":"Russian Journal of General Chemistry","volume":"94 12","pages":"3348 - 3362"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2025-01-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143109602","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
