Five sets of heterocyclic derivatives of various sizes and complexities coupled by an amidine function to putrescine, spermidine, or spermine were prepared. They were essentially tested to determine the influence of the polyamine chain on their cellular t

D,L-2-(Difluoromethyl) ornithine (DFMO), a potent inactivator of putrescine biosynthesis that depletes spermidine levels in cells, is known to enhance cytotoxicity of DNA-binding drugs. A significant in-vitro cytotoxicity and DNA-binding affinity found fo
