Abstract

Cell migration of tumor cells is essential for invasion of the extracellular matrix and for cell dissemination. Inhibition of the cell migration involved in the invasion process represents a potential therapeutic approach to the treatment of tumor metastasis; therefore, a novel series of derivatives of moverastins (moverastins A and B), an inhibitor of tumor cell migration, was designed and chemically synthesized. Among these moverastin derivatives, several ...
