Abstract

The discovery that some serotonin reuptake transporter (SERT) ligands have the potential to act as pro-apoptotic agents in the treatment of cancer adds greatly to their diverse pharmacological application. 4-Methylthioamphetamine (MTA) is a selective ligand for SERT over other monoamine transporters. In this study, a novel library of structurally diverse 4- MTA analogues were synthesised with or without N-alkyl and/or C-α methyl or ethyl ...
