- Synthesis, antiproliferative evaluation, and structure–activity relationships of novel triazole–isoindoline hybrids bearing 3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl moiety
-
As an aspect of our ongoing research on developing novel antiproliferative agents, 31 new triazole–isoindoline hybrids bearing 3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl moiety were synthesized and evaluated for their antiproliferative activity against four cancer cell lines (HepG2, HeLa, PC-3, and HCT116). Some compounds showed excellent potency, and compared to fluorouracil, the most promising compound 6s exhibited 5.8-, 4.3-, and 1.3- fold increase in activities against HeLa, HepG2, and PC-3 cell lines with IC50 values of 9.7, 10.7, and 16.8?μM, respectively. Moreover, structure–activity relationship studies indicated that a much shorter amide linkage and electron-withdrawing groups at phenyl ring of the acetamide fragment contribute to the antitumour activity.

-
Based on our previous work, a series of novel 3-alkylsulfanyl-4-amino-1,2,4-triazole derivatives were designed, synthesized and evaluated for their antiproliferative activities. The results indicated that some compounds possessed significant antiproliferative activities against four cancer cell lines, HepG2, HCT116, PC-3, and Hela. Particularly, the most promising compound 8d displayed 184-, 18-, and 17-fold improvement compared to fluorouracil in inhibiting HCT116, Hela and PC-3 cell proliferation with IC50values of 0.37, 2.94, and 31.31 μM, respectively. Most interestingly, the compound did not affect the normal human embryonic kidney cells, HEK-293. Moreover, mechanistic investigation showed that the representative compound 8d induced apoptosis and blocked cell cycle in G2/M phase in Hela cells in a dose-dependent manner. These findings suggest that compound 8d may have potential to be developed as a promising lead for the design of novel anticancer small-molecule drugs.

-
Here-in, we present molecular design, chemical synthesis and evaluation of novel chromenyl-based 2-iminothiazolidin-4-one derivatives as tubulin polymerization inhibitors. The newly synthesized compounds were evaluated for their in vitro cytotoxicities against A549 (lung cancer), MDA-MB-231 and BT-471 (breast cancer), HepG2 (liver cancer) and HCT-116 (colon cancer) cell lines by MTT assay. Among the synthesized compounds, compound 12b showed excellent anticancer activity on MDA-MB-231 cell line with IC50 value of 0.95 ± 1.88 μM and was verified to be safe in normal human bronchial epithelial cells (Beas-2B). Apoptosis induced by the lead 12b was observed using morphological observations, AO/EB and DAPI staining procedures. Further, dose-dependent increase in the depolarization of mitochondrial membrane was also observed through JC-1 staining. Annexin V-FITC/PI assay confirmed that 12b induced early apoptosis. Additionally, cell cycle analysis indicated that the MDA-MB-231 cells were arrested at sub-G2/M phase and also inhibited tubulin polymerization with IC50 value of 3.54 ± 0.2 μM. Molecular docking simulations were employed to identify the important binding modes responsible for the tubulin inhibitory activity, thus supporting their effective anticancer potential.

- The mckenna reaction – avoiding side reactions in phosphonate deprotection
-
The McKenna reaction is a well-known and popular method for the efficient and mild synthesis of organophosphorus acids. Bromotrimethylsilane (BTMS) is the main reagent in this reaction, which transforms dialkyl phosphonate esters into bis(trimethylsilyl)esters, which are then easily converted into the target acids. However, the versatile character of the McKenna reaction is not always used to its full extent, due to formation of side products. Herein, demonstrated by using model examples we have not only analyzed the typical side processes accompanying the McKenna reaction, but also uncovered new ones. Further, we discovered that some commonly recommended precautions did not always circumvent the side reactions. The proposed results and recommendations may facilitate the synthesis of phosphonic acids.

- Discovery and evaluation of new compounds targeting ribosomal protein S1 in antibiotic-resistant Mycobacterium Tuberculosis
-
The emergence of antibiotic-resistant Mycobacterium Tuberculosis (Mtb) infections compels new treatment strategies, of which targeting trans-translation is promising. During the trans-translation process, the ribosomal protein S1 (RpsA) plays a key role, and the Ala438 mutant is related to pyrazinamide (PZA) resistance, which shows its effects after being hydrolysed to pyrazinoic acid (POA). In this study, based on the structure of the RpsA C-terminal domain (RpsA-CTD) and POA complex, new compounds were designed. After being synthesized, the compounds were tested in vitro with saturation transfer difference (STD), fluorescence quenching titration (FQT) and chemical shift perturbation (CSP) experiments. Finally, six of the 17 new compounds have high affinity for both RpsA-CTD and its Ala438 deletion mutant. The active compounds provide new choices for targeting trans-translation in Mtb, and the analysis of the structure-activity relationships will be helpful for further structural modifications based on derivatives of 2-((hypoxanthine-2-yl)thio)acetic acid and 2-((5-hydroxylflavone-7-yl)oxy)acetamide.

- Development of triazolothiadiazine derivatives as highly potent tubulin polymerization inhibitors: Structure-activity relationship, in vitro and in vivo study
-
Based on our prior work, we reported the design, synthesis, and biological evaluation of fifty-two new triazolothiadiazine-based analogues of CA-4 and their preliminary structure-activity relationship. Among synthesized compounds, Iab was found to be the most potent derivative possessing IC50 values ranging from single-to double-digit nanomolar in vitro, and also exhibited excellent selectivity over the normal human embryonic kidney HEK-293 cells (IC50 > 100 μM). Further mechanistic studies revealed that Iab significantly blocked tubulin polymerization and disrupted the intracellular microtubule network of A549 cells. Moreover, Iab induced G2/M cell cycle arrest by regulation of p-cdc2 and cyclin B1 expressions, and caused cell apoptosis through up-regulating cleaved PARP and cleaved caspase-3 expressions, and down-regulating of Bcl-2. Importantly, in vivo, Iab effectively suppressed tumor growth of A549 lung cancers in a xenograft mouse model without obvious signs of toxicity, confirming its potential as a promising candidate for cancer treatment.

- Cink4T, a quinazolinone-based dual inhibitor of Cdk4 and tubulin polymerization, identified via ligand-based virtual screening, for efficient anticancer therapy
-
Inhibition of cyclin dependent kinase 4 (Cdk4) prevents cancer cells from entering the early G0/G1 phase of the cell division cycle whereas inhibiting tubulin polymerization blocks cancer cells’ ability to undergo mitosis (M) late in the cell cycle. We had reported earlier that two non-planar and relatively non-toxic fascaplysin derivatives, an indole and a tryptoline, inhibit Cdk4 with IC50 values of 6.2 and 10 μM, respectively. Serendipitously, we had also found that they inhibited tubulin polymerization. The molecules were efficacious in mouse tumor models. We have now identified Cink4T in a 59-compound quinazolinone library, designed on the basis of ligand-based virtual screening, as a compound that inhibits Cdk4 and tubulin. Its IC50 value for Cdk4 inhibition is 0.47 μM and >50 μM for inhibition of Cdk1, Cdk2, Cdk6, Cdk9. Cink4T inhibits tubulin polymerization with an IC50 of 0.6 μM. Molecular modelling studies on Cink4T with Cdk4 and tubulin crystal structures lend support to these observations. Cancer cell cycle analyses confirm that Cink4T blocks cells at both G0/G1 and M phases as it should if it were to inhibit both Cdk4 and tubulin polymerization. Our results show, for the very first time, that virtual screening can be used to design novel inhibitors that can potently block two crucial phases of the cell division cycle.

- CYP enzymes, expressed within live human suspension cells, are superior to widely-used microsomal enzymes in identifying potent CYP1A1/CYP1B1 inhibitors: Identification of quinazolinones as CYP1A1/CYP1B1 inhibitors that efficiently reverse B[a]P toxicity and cisplatin resistance
-
Microsomal cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes, isolated from recombinant bacterial/insect/yeast cells, are extensively used for drug metabolism studies. However, they may not always portray how a developmental drug would behave in human cells with intact intracellular transport mechanisms. This study emphasizes the usefulness of human HEK293 kidney cells, grown in ‘suspension’ for expression of CYPs, in finding potent CYP1A1/CYP1B1 inhibitors, as possible anticancer agents. With live cell-based assays, quinazolinones 9i/9b were found to be selective CYP1A1/CYP1B1 inhibitors with IC50 values of 30/21 nM, and > 150-fold selectivity over CYP2/3 enzymes, whereas they were far less active using commercially-available CYP1A1/CYP1B1 microsomal enzymes (IC50, >10/1.3–1.7 μM). Compound 9i prevented CYP1A1-mediated benzo[a]pyrene-toxicity in normal fibroblasts whereas 9b completely reversed cisplatin resistance in PC-3/prostate, COR-L23/lung, MIAPaCa-2/pancreatic and LS174T/colon cancer cells, underlining the human-cell-assays’ potential. Our results indicate that the most potent CYP1A1/CYP1B1 inhibitors would not have been identified if one had relied merely on microsomal enzymes.

We found that compound G37 displayed highest cytotoxicity with IC50 value of 0.92 ± 0.12 μM towards HCT-15 cancer cell line among all the synthesized compounds. Moreover, compound G37 was also tested on normal human lung epithelial cells (L132) and was found to be safe in contrast to HCT-15 cells. The lead compound G37 showed significant G2/M phase arrest in HCT-15 cells. Additionally, compound G37 significantly inhibited tubulin polymerization with IC50 value of 2.92 ± 0.23 μM. Mechanistic studies such as acridine orange/ethidium bromide (AO/EB) dual staining, DAPI nuclear staining, annexinV/propidium iodide dual staining, clonogenic growth inhibition assays inferred that compound G37 induced apoptotic cell death in HCT-15 cells. Moreover, loss of mitochondrial membrane potential with elevated intracellular ROS levels was observed by compound G37. These compounds bind at the active pocket of the α/β-tubulin with higher number of stable hydrogen bonds, hydrophobic and arene-cation interactions confirmed by molecular modeling studies.

- Coumarin and 3,4-dihydroquinolinone derivatives: Synthesis, antidepressant activity, and molecular docking studies
-
Background: Coumarin and 3,4-dihydroquinolinone nuclei are two heterocyclic rings that are important and widely exploited for the development of bioactive molecules. Here, we designed and synthesized a series of 3,4-dihydroquinolinone and coumarin derivatives (Compounds 8, 9, 11, 14, 15, 18-20, 23, 24 and 28 are new compounds) and studied their antidepressant activities. Methods: Forced swimming test (FST) and tail suspension test (TST) were used to evaluate the antidepressant activity of the target compounds. The most active compound was used to evaluate the exploratory activity of the animals by the open-field test. 5-HT concentration was estimated to evaluate if the compound has an effect on the mouse brain, by using ELISA. A 5-HT1A binding assay was also performed. The biological activities of the compounds were verified by molecular docking studies. The physicochemical and pharmacokinetic properties of the target compounds were predicted by Discovery Studio and ChemBioDraw Ultra. Results: Of all the compounds tested, compound 7 showed the best antidepressant activity, which decreased the immobility time by 65.52 s in FST. However, in the open-field test, compound 7 did not affect spontaneous activity. The results of 5-HT concentration estimation in vivo showed that compound 7 may have an effect on the mouse brain. Molecular docking results indicated that compound 7 showed significant interactions with residues at the 5-HT1A receptor using homology modeling. The results show that compound 7 exhibits good affinity for the 5-HT1A receptor. Conclusion: Coumarin and 3,4-dihydroquinolinone derivatives synthesized in this study have a significant antidepressant activity. These findings can be useful in the design and synthesis of novel antidepressants.

- Thioimidazoline based compounds reverse glucocorticoid resistance in human acute lymphoblastic leukemia xenografts
-
Glucocorticoids form a critical component of chemotherapy regimens for pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and the initial response to glucocorticoid therapy is a major prognostic factor, where resistance is predictive of poor outcome. A high-throughput screen identified four thioimidazoline-containing compounds that reversed dexamethasone resistance in an ALL xenograft derived from a chemoresistant pediatric ALL. The lead compound (1) was synergistic when used in combination with the glucocorticoids, dexamethasone or prednisolone. Synergy was observed in a range of dexamethasone-resistant xenografts representative of B-cell precursor ALL (BCP-ALL) and T-cell ALL. We describe here the synthesis of twenty compounds and biological evaluation of thirty two molecules that explore the structure-activity relationships (SAR) of this novel class of glucocorticoid sensitizing compounds. SAR analysis has identified that the most effective dexamethasone sensitizers contain a thioimidazoline acetamide substructure with a large hydrophobic moiety on the acetamide. This journal is

-
Sphingomyelin synthase (SMS) has been proved to be a potential drug target for the treatment of atherosclerosis. However, few SMS inhibitors have been reported. In this paper, structure-based virtual screening was performed on hSMS1. SAPA 1a was discovered as a novel SMS1 inhibitor with an IC50 value of 5.2 μM in enzymatic assay. A series of 2-(4-(N-phenethylsulfamoyl)phenoxy)acetamides (SAPAs) were synthesized and their biological activities toward SMS1 were evaluated. Among them, SAPA 1j was found to be the most potent SMS1 inhibitor with an IC50 value of 2.1 μM in in vitro assay. The molecular docking studies suggested the interaction modes of SMS1 inhibitors and PC with the active site of SMS1. Site-directed mutagenesis validated the involvement of residues Arg342 and Tyr338 in enzymatic sphingomyelin production. The discovery of SAPA derivatives as a novel class of SMS1 inhibitors would advance the development of more effective SMS1 inhibitors.

- Synthesis of 5-benzyl-2-phenylpyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrazin-4,6(5H,7H)-dione derivatives and discovery of an apoptosis inducer for H322 lung cancer cells
-
A series of substituted 5-benzyl-2-phenylpyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrazin-4,6(5H,7H)- dione derivatives was synthesized by one-step reaction of ethyl 3-phenyl-1H-pyrazole-5-carboxylate derivatives and N-arylalkyl-2- chloroacetamide. Structures of the compounds were determined by IR, 1H NMR and mass spectroscopy. In addition, a representative single-crystal structure was characterized by using X-ray diffraction analysis. The compound 5j could selectively inhibit the growth of H322 lung cancer cells which contain a mutated p53 gene in a dose-dependent manner through inducing apoptosis of cells.

- Synthesis of novel 9-O-N-aryl/aryl-alkyl amino carbonyl methyl substituted berberine analogs and evaluation of DNA binding aspects
-
This manuscript describes the design and synthesis of three 9-O substituted analogs of plant alkaloid berberine to enhance the DNA binding affinity. Three analogs of berberine with aryl/aryl-alkyl amino carbonyl methyl substituent at the 9-position of the isoquinoline chromophore were synthesized and characterized by NMR (1HNMR and 13C NMR) and mass spectroscopy. The products were evaluated for their binding to calf thymus DNA by a wide variety of techniques like spectrophotometry, spectrofluorimetry, circular dichroism, thermal melting, viscosity and isothermal titration calorimetry. The results revealed that these analogs showed more than six times higher binding affinity to DNA compared to berberine. From fluorescence and absorbance studies it was inferred that all the analogs bound to DNA non-cooperatively in contrast to the cooperative binding of the parent alkaloid berberine. The viscosity and ferrocyanide quenching experiments confirmed that the analogs are stronger intercalative binders to DNA useful for potential biological applications. Stronger binding of the analogs was also inferred from circular dichroism studies and thermal melting experiments. Thermodynamics of the binding from isothermal titration calorimetry experiments revealed an entropy driven binding for these analogs compared to the enthalpy driven binding of berberine. The small but negative heat capacity change of the analogs along with the significant enthalpy-entropy compensation phenomenon observed established the involvement of multiple weak noncovalent interactions in the binding process. A comparative study also revealed that the spacer length is also significant in modulating the DNA binding affinities.

- Synthesis of novel 2-iminothiazolidin-4-ones
-
Thiazolidin-4-ones are known to exhibit diverse biological activities such as antimicrobial, anticancer, antidiarrheal, anticonvulsant, antidiabetic, antihistaminic, and antifungal activities. In the present investigation, a series of 2-haloacetamides was prepared by reacting chloroacetyl chloride with amines in dry benzene under reflux conditions. The formed 2-haloacetamides reacted with potassium thiocyanate in refluxing dry acetone to afford new 2-iminothiazolidin-4-ones. The 5-arylidene-2-imino-3 (napthalen-2yl)- thiazolidin-4-ones were prepared by condensing 2-iminothiazolidin-4-ones with substituted benzaldehydes. All the products were characterized by infrared, mass, and 1H and 13C NMR techniques.

- Synthesis, structure and anticancer activity of copper(II) complexes of N-benzyl-2-(diethylamino)acetamide and 2-(diethylamino)-N-phenylethylacetamide
-
The ligands N-benzyl-2-(diethylamino)acetamide, (HL1) and 2-(diethylamino)-N-phenylethylacetamide (HL2), have been used to synthesize copper(II) complexes, [Cu(HL1)2](ClO 4)2 (1) and [Cu(HL2)2](ClO 4)2 (2), respectively. Both complexes are well characterized by various spectral and physical methods. The crystal structure of complex (1) reveals that two bidentate ligands coordinate the Cu(II) ion via Oamide and Namine atoms in the basal plane whereas one of the ClO4- ions occupies the apical position maintaining a square-pyramidal geometry. Screening results for anti-proliferative studies against the U87 and HeLa cancerous cells indicate promising activity. The complexes enhanced growth inhibition and cell death in a concentration and time dependent manner for both U87 and HeLa cell lines. Of the two compounds, complex (2) exhibits better activity against both HeLa and U87 cells. Further, both complexes are specifically potent against U87 after 72 h of treatment. Micronucleus and apoptosis frequencies are 3 - 4 times higher in treated cells when compared with untreated control. Despite potent in vitro activity, both complexes exhibit diminished cytotoxicity against the normal human HEK cells at all effective concentrations.

- Synthesis of benzo[b][1,4]oxazin-3(4H)-ones via smiles rearrangement for antimicrobial activity
-
The benzo[b][1,4]oxazin-3(4H)-one derivatives, 1a-p, carrying F, Br, and Cl on the benzene ring, or benzyl, cyclohexyl, n-hexyl, and tetrafuryl methylene groups attached to nitrogen atom were synthesized via Smiles rearrangement and assayed in vitro for their antimicrobial activity against Gram-positive, Gram-negative bacteria, and fungi. The antimicrobial activity of the benzo[b][1,4]oxazin-3(4H)-ones showed, on the whole, potency toward all the tested Gram-positive and Gramnegative microorganism (MIC ranging from 16 to 64 lg/ ml), whereas weak effectiveness was exhibited against fungi. Data obtained suggest that fluorine atom in the compounds, 1c, 1f, 1i plays an important role in enhancing the antimicrobial properties of this class of compounds. These observations provide some predictions to design further antimicrobial active compounds prior to their synthesis according to molecular modeling studies.

- Modulating the development of E. coli biofilms with 2-aminoimidazoles
-
The synthesis of a 20 member 2-aminoimidazole/triazole pilot library is reported. Each member of the library was screened for its ability to inhibit or promote biofilm development of either Escherichia coli and Acinetobacter baumannii. From this screen, E. coli-selective 2-aminoimidazoles were discovered, with the best inhibitor inhibiting biofilm development with an IC50 of 13 μM. The most potent promoter of E. coli biofilm formation promoted biofilm development by 321% at 400 μM.

- Synthesis of "Trioxaquantel" derivatives as potential new antischistosomal drugs
-
Over the past 20 years, praziquantel, a pyrazinoisoquinoline derivative, has become the mainstay for morbidity control of human and animal schistosomiasis. From early in their lives in vertebrate hosts, schistosomes ingest hemoglobin and aggregate the released heme as a dark pigment very similar to the hemozoin produced by Plasmodium in malaria infection. The antimalarial artemisinin derivatives have real, though low, schistosomicide activity. Because of the complementarity of the two drug classes - praziquantel and artemisinin derivatives - we designed new molecules, named trioxaquantels, that combine the 1,2,4-trioxane unit responsible for the activity of artemisinin, and the pyrazinoisoquinoline moiety of praziquantel within a single drug. The synthesis of these new drugs and their preliminary evaluation in mice infected with Schistosoma mansoni is reported here. Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, 2008.
