Major limitations of chalcones as clinical anticancer agents are water insolubility and poor bioavailability, which may be improved by a classic phosphate prodrug strategy that targets non-specific alkaline phosphatase (ALP) for releasing the parent drugin vivo. In this study, we found thatBOC26P, a phosphate prodrug of chalconeOC26, exhibits excellent water solubility and improved plasma concentrationin vivoby either i.v. or p.o. compared with the parent drug. In pace with decreased inhibitory activity ofBOC26Pagainst microtubule polymerizationin vitroand in cells, the antiproliferative activity ofBOC26Pis attenuated in A549 and HLF cells. However, the antitumor effect ofBOC26Pincreases in an A549 xenograft model as compared to the equimolar concentration ofOC26, suggesting that complex tumor microenvironment would be another important influence factor to regulate the antitumor activity ofBOC26Pin vivo. In conclusion, these observations showed that the traditional phosphate prodrug strategy would be a promising and easy method to increase water solubility and anticancer activity of chalcones for the clinical developments of anticancer agents.
