Description:
Obtusaquinone (OBT) is a potent antineoplastic agent with significant therapeutic potential, particularly in aggressive cancers such as glioblastoma and breast cancer. Its mechanism of action involves the induction of oxidative stress and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, leading to cancer cell death. OBT has demonstrated promising in vivo activity, including the ability to penetrate the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and target brain tumors, making it a particularly valuable candidate for treating central nervous system (CNS) malignancies.
