This research compared the cytotoxic actions of the benzofuran ketone, tremetone in B16 murine melanoma cells to SH-SY5Y human neuroblastoma cells with an MTT assay. Tremetone was not cytotoxic in B16 cells. In SH-SY5Y cells, concentration-dependent tremetone cytotoxicity occurred without microsomal activation. No cytotoxicity was observed with 6-hydroxytremetone. This suggests that SH-SY5Y cells are a better model for the cytotoxic actions of tremetone and that tremetone is toxic without microsomal activation.
