Histone deacetylases (HDACs) have been proved to be promising targets for the treatment of cancer, and five histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACis) have been approved on the market for the treatment of different lymphomas. In our previous work, we designed a series of novel coumarin-containing hydroxamate HDACis, among which compounds 6 and 7 displayed promising activities against tumor growth. Based on a molecular docking study, we further developed 26 additional analogues with the aim to improve activity of designed compounds. Several of these new derivatives not only showed excellent HDAC1 inhibitory effects, but also displayed significant growth inhibitory activities against four human cancer cell lines. Representative compounds, 13a and 13c, showed potent anti-proliferative activities against solid tumor cell lines with IC50 values of 0.36–2.91 μM and low cytotoxicity against Beas-2B and L-02 normal cells. Immunoblot analysis revealed that 13a and 13c dose-dependently increased the acetylation of histone H3 and H4. Importantly, the two compounds displayed much better anti-metastatic effects than SAHA against the MDA-MB-231 cell line. Moreover, 13a and 13c arrested MDA-MB-231 cells at G2/M phase and induced MDA-MB-231 cell apoptosis. Finally, the molecular docking study rationalized the high potency of compound 13c.

Furanocoumarins, particularly furo[3,2-c]coumarins, are found in many natural products. However, coumarins annulated to a thiophene ring have received scarce attention to date in the literature. Therefore, we synthesized 4-oxo-4H-thieno[3,2-c]chromene derivatives and tested in vitro their anti-inflammatory activity. Anti-inflammatory potential of the synthesized compounds (1, 2, 6–8, 9a–e and 10a–c) has been evaluated by measuring various pSTAT (signal transducer and activator of transcription) inhibition within the JAK (Janus-activated family kinase)/STAT signaling pathway. Ethyl 7-hydroxy-4-oxo-4H-thieno[3,2-c]chromene-2-carboxylate (7) showed best inhibition properties on pSTAT5 in GM-CSF (Granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor)-triggered PBMC assay, with IC50 value of 5.0 μM.

Ferulin C, a natural sesquiterpene coumarin, isolated from the roots of Ferula ferulaeoides (Steud.) Korov, displaying potent antiproliferatory activity against breast cancer cells. This study aimed to elucidate the underlying molecular mechanisms of Ferulin C-induced breast cancer cells death in vitro and in vivo. Ferulin C presented potent antiproliferatory activity against MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 cells and remarkable tubulin polymerization inhibitory activity (IC50 = 9.2 μM). Meanwhile, we predicted Ferulin C bind to the Colchicine site of tubulin through CETSA assay, molecular docking and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. In immunofluorescence assay, Ferulin C disturbed the microtubule integrity and structure. Furthermore, Ferulin C stimulated significant cell cycle arrest in the G1/S period via p21Cip1/Waf1 - CDK2 signaling, induced classic cell apoptosis, impaired metastasis via down-regulating Ras-Raf-ERK and AKT-mTOR signaling. Intriguingly, Ferulin C treatment induced autophagy by ULK1 signaling to synergize with the inhibition of proliferation and metastasis. Based upon the RNAseq analysis, PAK1, as a novel essential modulator, was involved in the signaling regulated by Ferulin C -induced α/β-tubulin depolymerization. Additionally, Ferulin C displayed an acceptable antiproliferatory activity in an MCF-7 xenograft model without inducing obvious weight loss in the Ferulin C treated mice. Summarily, our findings substantiated that Ferulin C was a potent, colchicine site binding microtubule-destabilizing agent with anti-proliferation and anti-metastasis activity via PAK1 and p21-mediated signaling in breast cancer cells.

An efficient protocol for synthesizing furo[3,2-c]coumarin derivatives is described. The novel reaction could afford the desired furocoumarins with good to excellent yields in a mild and rapid manner. Large substrate scope screening and scale-up preparation have also been accomplished, and selected compounds were evaluated for their photophysical properties.
