ONO-3403 and ONO-5046 are potent synthetic protease inhibitors of trypsin and elastase, respectively. These compounds suppressed the proliferation of polyoma virus- and Kirsten sarcoma virus-transformed BALB/c 3T3 cells more effectively than their normal counterparts. SV40-transformed 3Y1 and v-Ha-ras-transformed NIH3T3 cells were also more sensitive to ONO-3403 and ONO-5046 than the parent normal cells. These results suggest that ONO-3403 and ONO-5046 are useful for selective suppression of the proliferation of rapidly growing transformed cells.
