Their proteasome inhibition and in vitro anticancer activities were evaluated. The four peptide cycloacetal derivatives did not showed any activities, which demonstrated that this kind of cycloacetal derivatives might be suitable as prodrugs. The two peptide heterocycle compounds were found to show obvious activities at both enzyme and cell levels. These results provide us a new clue for the modification of peptide aldehyde proteasome inhibitors.展开更多
