- IND-2, a pyrimido[1″,2″:1,5]pyrazolo[3,4-b]quinoline derivative, circumvents multi-drug resistance and causes apoptosis in colon cancer cells
-
Naturally occurring condensed quinolines have anticancer properties. In efforts to find active analogues, we designed and synthesized eight polycyclic heterocycles with a pyrimido[1″,2″:1,5]pyrazolo[3,4-b]quinoline framework (IND series). The compounds were evaluated for activity against colon (HCT-116 and S1-MI-80), prostate (PC3 and DU-145), breast (MCF-7 and MDAMB-231), ovarian (ov2008 and A2780), and hepatocellular (HepG2) cancer cells and against non-cancerous Madin Darby canine kidney (MDCK), mouse embryonic fibroblast (NIH/3T3), and human embryonic kidney cells (HEK293). IND-2, a 4-chloro-2-methyl pyrimido[1″,2″:1,5]pyrazolo[3,4-b]quinoline, exhibited more than ten-fold selectivity and potent cytotoxic activity against colon cancer cells relative to the other cancer and non-cancer cells. With five additional colon cancer cell lines (HT-29, HCT-15, LS-180, LS-174, and LoVo), IND-2 had similar cytotoxicity and selectivity, and sub-micromolar concentrations caused changes in the morphology of HCT-116 and HCT-15 cells. IND-2 did not activate the transactivating function of the pregnane X receptor (PXR), indicating that it does not induce PXR-regulated ABCB1 or ABCG2 transporters. Indeed, IND-2 was not a substrate of ABCB1 or ABCG2, and it induced cytotoxicity in HEK293 cells overexpressing ABCB1 or ABCG2 to the same extent as in normal HEK293 cells. IND-2 was cytotoxic to resistant colon carcinoma S1-MI-80 cells, approximately three- and five-fold more than SN-38 and topotecan, respectively. In HCT-116 colon cancer cells, IND-2 produced concentration-dependent changes in mitochondrial membrane potential, leading to apoptosis, and sub-micromolar concentrations caused chromosomal DNA fragmentation. These findings suggest that, by increasing apoptosis, IND-2 has potential therapeutic efficacy for colorectal cancer.

- lH-Pyrazolo[3,4-b]quinolin-3-amine derivatives inhibit growth of colon cancer cells via apoptosis and sub G1 cell cycle arrest
-
A series of lH-pyrazolo[3,4-b]quinolin-3-amine derivatives were synthesized and evaluated for anticancer efficacy in a panel of ten cancer cell lines, including breast (MDAMB-231 and MCF-7), colon (HCT-116, HCT-15, HT-29 and LOVO), prostate (DU-145 and PC3), brain (LN-229), ovarian (A2780), and human embryonic kidney (HEK293) cells, a non-cancerous cell line. Among the eight derivatives screened, compound QTZ05 had the most potent and selective antitumor efficacy in the four colon cancer cell lines, with IC50 values ranging from 2.3 to 10.2 μM. Furthermore, QTZ05 inhibited colony formation in HCT-116 cells in a concentration-dependent manner. Cell cycle analysis data indicated that QTZ05 caused an arrest in the sub G1 cell cycle in HCT-116 cells. QTZ05 induced apoptosis in HCT-116 cells in a concentration-dependent manner that was characterized by chromatin condensation and increase in the fluorescence of fluorochrome-conjugated Annexin V. The findings from our study suggest that QTZ05 may be a valuable prototype for the development of chemotherapeutics targeting apoptotic pathways in colorectal cancer cells.

-
Stepwise synthesis of 1H-pyrazolo [3, 4-b] quinolines 6 has been described from the reactions of 2-chloro-3-formylquinolines 1 with ethyleneglycol and hydrazine hydrate reagents in sequence followed by hydrolysis with BiCl 3. However, 3-amino-1H-pyrazolo[3, 4-b]quinolines 7 have been synthesized from 2-chloro-3-cyanoquinolines 2 with excess of hydrazine hydrate in one step. The functional group manipulation of amino group in compounds 7 has also been studied.

- Evaluation of some pyrazoloquinolines as inhibitors of herpes simplex virus type 1 replication
-
Three structurally related aminopyrazoloquinoline derivatives were evaluated for their antiviral activity against Herpes Simplex virus type 1. These compounds were examined for their in vitro antiviral activity by two different bioassays, namely; crystal violet staining and tetrazolium dye (MTS) measurement. The antiviral role of these compounds was confirmed by enumerating the infectious particles with plaque assay. The acute toxicity values of the biologically active compounds were determined prior to their screening as antiviral agents.

- Synthesis of new pyrazolo[3,4-b]quinolines, thieno[2,3-b]quinolines and related condensed heterocyclic systems
-
3-Amino-l H-pyrazolo[3,4-b]quinoline (2) was reacted with benzaldehyde, acetylacetone, ethyl aceto-acetate and/or phenyl isothiocyanate to give compounds 3,4,5 and 6, respectively. The interaction of 6 with some α-haloesters and/or α-haloketones produced the corresponding thiazolidinones 7a-c and thiazolines 9a-d. lH-Pyrazolo[3,4-b]quinoline-3-diazonium chloride (11) was coupled with some active methylene compounds to give the corresponding hydrazono compounds 12a, b and 13 which, in turn were cyclized into the corresponding triazinopyrazoloquinolines 14a,b and 15 by heating in acetic acid. 3-Aminothieno[2,3-b]quinoline-2-carbohydrazide (19) and 3-amino-2-(1H-benzimidazol-2-yl)thieno[2,3-b]quinoline (21) were prepared and employed as key intermediates for synthesizing the second class of the title compounds.
