Abstract
In this issue of Cell Chemical Biology, Jacobsen et al. (2018) investigate the hypoxia selectivity of two cyclolipodepsipeptide natural products bearing a 4-amido-2,4-pentadienoate warhead. A switch in the cell death pathway under hypoxic conditions is observed, suggesting these electrophilic natural products have potential as a prodrug-free approach for treating hypoxic tumors.
