Novel meriolin derivatives activate the mitochondrial apoptosis pathway in the presence of antiapoptotic Bcl-2

Abstract Meriolin derivatives represent a new class of kinase inhibitors with a pronounced cytotoxic potential. Here, we investigated a newly synthesized meriolin derivative (termed meriolin 16) that displayed a strong apoptotic potential in Jurkat leukemia and Ramos lymphoma cells. Meriolin 16 indu...
