Abstract

A series of chroman derivatives previously reported as potassium channel openers, as well as some newly synthesized simplified structures, were examined for their in vitro effects on the growth of three human high-grade glioma cell lines: U373, T98G, and Hs683. Significant in vitro growth inhibitory activity was observed with 2, 2-dimethylchroman-type nitro- substituted phenylthioureas, such as compounds 4o and 4p. Interestingly, most tested ...
