U0618 Ubenimex
Bestatin
Ubenimex is an antitumor agent effective against murine syngeneic tumors including mouse colon 26 and C1498 leukemia. It was found to be active against MNNG-induced rat tumor by oral administration. It also inhibits leucine aminopeptidase and aminopeptidase B in cell membrane, in addition to modulating PKC in K562 cells and inducing apoptosis.

Induces apoptosis in various cultured cells including leukemia cells.

Another hypothesis based on investigation done on the mode of actions of vitamin K suggests that VK3 induces apoptosis by promoting the generation of intracellular reactive oxygen intermediates and Fas/APO-1 expression.
