- New enzymatic and chemical approaches to enantiopure etodolac
-
(+)- and (-)-etodolac enantiomers were prepared both by classical resolution via crystallisation of diastereoisomeric salts with (+) and (-)-α-methylbenzylamine, and by suitable manipulation of derivatives (-)-3- and (+)-4, obtained by lipase-catalysed kinetic resolution of racemic 3. X-ray diffraction analysis of the 4-bromobenzoate derivative of (+)-3, obtained from enantiopure acetate (+)-4, allowed us to determine the absolute (R) configuration of (-)-etodolac.

- Design, synthesis and biological evaluation of antitumor platinum(II) agents conjugated with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug species
-
As one of the key features of tumor, inflammation attracts much attention of many researchers for antitumor study, in which non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) have been widely investigated in anti-inflammatory treatments in cancers. Herein, we report a series of novel platinum(II) complexes derived from conjugation of several NSAIDs derivatives with two antitumor platinum(II) agents. The antitumor inhibitory effects of the synthesized compounds on a number of cancer cell lines were estimated. By taking the advantage of two bioactive moieties, these compounds exhibited stronger antitumor activity than their parent platinum agents, and some appeared to have capability of overcoming cisplatin resistance. Among them, IA-1 showed the best cytotoxicity and even exhibited stronger antitumor activity than cisplatin. Further research indicated that IA-1 induced significant DNA damage and ROS generation, accompanied by high cellular platinum accumulation, resulting in a much higher apoptosis rate than cisplatin in A2780 cells. Moreover, IA-1 was found to inhibit metastasis and invasion of A2780 cells by suppressing the COX-2/JAK2/STAT3 axis. All these results revealed that introduction of NSAIDs species efficiently sensitized cancer cells to the synthetic compounds, proving that NSAIDs can enhance the activity of the platinum(II) agents via inhibiting inflammation in cancer cells.

- Novel Etodolac-Based 1,2,4-Triazole Derivatives as Antimicrobial Agents: Synthesis, Biological Evaluation, and Molecular Docking Study
-
Abstract: A series of novel 1,2,4-triazole nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs)derived from etodolac were designed and synthesized. The synthesized compoundswere identified using 1H and13C NMR, IR, and mass spectra and elementalanalyses and evaluated for their in vitro antibacterial activity againstGram-positive microorganisms like Streptococcuspneumoniae and Klebsiellapneumoniae and Gram-negative strains such as Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Enterobacter cloacae with pefloxacin as a reference drug. Somecompounds showed a potent activity at a concentration 50 mg/mL with inhibitionzones of 30 to 36 mm against S. pneumoniae.Etodolac-derived N-isobutyl- and N-ethyl-1,2,4-triazoles containing4-methoxybenzylsulfanyl and 3-nitrobenzylsulfanyl groups were active againstP. aeruginosa with inhibition zones of25–29 mm at a concentration of 50 mg/mL. All compounds showed excellentantioxidant activity with IC50 values ranging from72.39±0.25 μg/mL to 16.39±0.65 μg/mL in comparison with ascorbic acid(IC50 16.81±0.18 μg/mL). Molecular docking studiesrevealed strong hydrogen bonding, π–π, and π–σ interactions of 3-nitro-,4-methoxy-, and 4-methylbenzyl moieties with Ser421, Val120, Tyr124, Phe319,Ala44, and Val120 amino acid residues of the active site of glycogen synthasekinase-3 (GSK-3) protein.

A series of (R,S)-1-{[5-(substituted)sulfanyl-4-substituted-4H-1,2,4-triazole-3-yl]methyl}-1,8-diethyl-1,3,4,9-tetrahydropyrano[3,4-b]indoles (5a–v) were designed and synthesized using a five-step synthetic protocol that involves substituted benzyl chlorides and (R,S)-5-[(1,8-diethyl-1,3,4,9-tetrahydropyrano[3,4-b]indole-1-yl)methyl]-4-substituted-2,4-dihydro-3H-1,2,4-triazole-3-thiones in the final step. The synthesized derivatives were evaluated for cytotoxicity and anticancer activity in vitro using the MTT (3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide) colorimetric method against VERO, HEPG2 (human hepatocellular liver carcinoma), SKOV3 (ovarian carcinoma), MCF7 (human breast adenocarcinoma), PC3 and DU145 (prostate carcinoma) cells at 10?5 M (10 μM) for 24 h. Compounds 5d and 5h showed the best biological potency against the SKOV3 cancer cell line (IC50 = 7.22 and 5.10 μM, respectively) and did not display cytotoxicity toward VERO cells compared to etodolac. Compounds 5k, 5s, and 5v showed the most potent biological activity against the PC3 cancer cell line (IC50 = 8.18, 3.10, and 4.00 μM, respectively) and did not display cytotoxicity. Moreover, these compounds were evaluated for caspase-3, -9, and -8 protein expression and activation in the apoptosis pathway for 6, 12, and 24 h, which play a key role in the treatment of cancer. In this study, we also investigated the apoptotic mechanism and molecular modeling of compounds 5k and 5v on the methionine aminopeptidase (type II) enzyme active site in order to get insights into the binding mode and energy.

- Anti-cancer and anti-hepatitis C virus NS5B polymerase activity of etodolac 1,2,4-triazoles
-
Arachidonic acid is an unsaturated fatty acid liberated from phospholipids of cell membranes. NSAIDs are known as targets of cyclooxygenase enzyme (COX-1, COX-2 and COX-3) in arachidonic acid metabolism. This mechanism of COX-2 in carcinogenesis causes cancer. In addition, COX-2 plays a role in the early stages of hepatocarcinogenesis. Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is cause of liver cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The aim of our study was to improve effective agents against HCV. A novel series of new etodolac 1,2,4-triazoles derivatives (4a-h) have been synthesized and investigated for their activity against HCV NS5B polymerase. Compound 4a was found to be the most active with IC50 value of 14.8 M. In accordance with these results, compound 4a was screened for anti-cancer activity on liver cancer cell lines (Huh7, Mahlavu, HepG2, FOCUS). Compound 4a showed anti-cancer activity against Huh7 human hepatoma cell line with IC50 value of 4.29 M. Therefore, compound 4a could be considered as a new anti-cancer and anti-HCV lead compound.

Etodolac hydrazide and a novel series of etodolac hydrazide-hydrazones 3-15 and etodolac 4-thiazolidinones 16-26 were synthesized in this study. The structures of the new compounds were determined by spectral (FT-IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, HREI-MS) methods. Some selected compounds were determined at one dose toward the full panel of 60 human cancer cell lines by the National Cancer Institute (NCI, Bethesda, USA). 2-(1,8-Diethyl-1,3,4,9- tetrahydropyrano[3,4-b]indole-1-yl)acetic acid[(4-chlorophenyl)methylene] hydrazide 9 demonstrated the most marked effect on the prostate cancer cell line PC-3, with 58.24% growth inhibition at 10-5 M (10 μM). Using the MTT colorimetric method, compound 9 was evaluated in vitro against the prostate cell line PC-3 and the rat fibroblast cell line L-929, for cell viability and growth inhibition at different doses. Compound 9 exhibited anticancer activity with an IC50 value of 54 μM (22.842 μg/mL) against the PC-3 cells and did not display any cytotoxicity toward the L-929 rat fibroblasts, compared to etodolac. In addition, this compound was evaluated for caspase-3 and Bcl-2 activation in the apoptosis pathway, which plays a key role in the treatment of cancer. Etodolac hydrazide and a novel series of etodolac hydrazide-hydrazones 3-15 and etodolac 4-thiazolidinones 16-26 were synthesized. 2-(1,8-Diethyl-1,3,4,9-tetrahydropyrano[3,4-b]indole-1-yl)acetic acid[(4-chlorophenyl)methylene]hydrazide 9 demonstrated the most marked cell viability and growth inhibition effects. It was evaluated for caspase-3 and Bcl-2 activation in the apoptosis pathway. Copyright

An efficient resolution process using N-methyl glucamine (meglumine) which directly provides (S)-etodolac as the meglumine salt is described. This salt is also a dosage form with improved absorption characteristics. The off-isomer is efficiently racemised via the ester, prepared by mild esterification, followed by hydrolysis affording rac-etodolac suitable for recycling.
