Alkylphospholipids are a class of antineoplastic compounds that display potent antiproliferative activity in several in vitro and in vivo human tumor models. Perifosine(D 21266 ) is an alkylphospholipid that induces apoptotic cell death in a variety of tumor cell lines. Apoptosis is induced in a time- and dose-dependent manner in U937 and Jurkat T human leukemia cell lines but not in normal vascular endothelial cells. Perifosine(D 21266 ) causes inhibition of PC-3 prostate carcinoma cell growth (growth inhibition (GI50) = 5µM at 24h) and is associated with rapidly decreased Akt activation. In addition, perifosine induces p21WAF1 expression in squamous carcinoma cells through a p53-independent pathway, leading to loss in cyclin-dependent kinase activity and cell cycle arrest.
