- Design, synthesis and biological evaluation of benzoylacrylic acid shikonin ester derivatives as irreversible dual inhibitors of tubulin and EGFR
-
In this study, a series of shikonin derivatives combined with benzoylacrylic had been designed and synthesized, which showed an inhibitory effect on both tubulin and the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR). In vitro EGFR and cell growth inhibition assay demonstrated that compound PMMB-317 exhibited the most potent anti-EGFR (IC50 = 22.7 nM) and anti-proliferation activity (IC50 = 4.37 μM) against A549 cell line, which was comparable to that of Afatinib (EGFR, IC50 = 15.4 nM; A549, IC50 = 6.32 μM). Our results on mechanism research suggested that, PMMB-317 could induce the apoptosis of A549 cells in a dose- and time-dependent manner, along with decrease in mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP), production of ROS and alterations in apoptosis-related protein levels. Also, PMMB-317 could arrest cell cycle at G2/M phase to induce cell apoptosis, and inhibit the EGFR activity through blocking the signal transduction downstream of the mitogen-activated protein MAPK pathway and the anti-apoptotic kinase AKT pathway; typically, such results were comparable to those of afatinib. In addition, PMMB-317 could suppress A549 cell migration through the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway in a dose-dependent manner. Additionally, molecular docking simulation revealed that, PMMB-317 could simultaneously combine with EGFR protein (5HG8) and tubulin (1SA0) through various forces. Moreover, 3D-QSAR study was also carried out, which could optimize our compound through the structure-activity relationship analysis. Furthermore, the in vitro and in vivo results had collectively confirmed that PMMB-317 might serve as a promising lead compound to further develop the potential therapeutic anticancer agents.

- Design, synthesis, and bioevaluation of a novel class of (E)-4-oxo-crotonamide derivatives as potent antituberculosis agents
-
A series of novel (E)-4-oxo-2-crotonamide derivatives were designed and synthesized to find potent antituberculosis agents. All the target compounds were evaluated for their in vitro activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv(MTB). Results reveal that 4-phenyl moiety at part A and short methyl group at part C were found to be favorable. Most of the derivatives displayed promising activity against MTB with MIC ranging from 0.125 to 4 μg/mL. Especially, compound IIIa16 was found to have the best activity with MIC of 0.125 μg/mL against MTB and with MIC in the range of 0.05–0.48 μg/mL against drug-resistant clinical MTB isolates.

- Substituted 4-oxo-crotonic acid derivatives as a new class of protein kinase B (PknB) inhibitors: synthesis and SAR study
-
Protein kinase B (PknB) is an essential serine/threonine protein kinase required for Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. tb) cell division and cell-wall biosynthesis. A high throughput screen using PknB identified a (E)-4-oxo-crotonic acid inhibitor, named YH-8, which was used as a scaffold for SAR investigations. A significant improvement in enzyme affinity was achieved. The results indicated that the α,β-unsaturated ketone scaffold and “trans-” configuration are essential for the activity against PknB. And compounds with an aryl group, especially with electron-withdrawing substituents on benzene ring, exhibited four fold potency than that of YH-8.

- Chemistry of the Synthetic Strigolactone Mimic GR24
-
This research paper describes a second-generation, enantioselective synthesis of (+)-GR24. This new strategy circumvents the need for ozonolysis, which may not be suitable for reactions performed on scale. This flexible new approach is then used to synthesise a novel bromo-GR24 analogue. Finally, the optimal solvent for making GR24 stock solutions is identified.

- 2-[(Carboxymethyl)sulfanyl]-4-oxo-4-arylbutanoic acids selectively suppressed proliferation of neoplastic human HeLa cells. A SAR/QSAR study
-
A series of twenty alkyl-, halo-, and methoxy-aryl-substituted 2-[(carboxymethyl)sulfanyl]-4-oxo-4-arylbutanoic acids were synthesized. The new compounds, called CSAB, suppressed proliferation of human cervix carcinoma, HeLa cells, in vitro in a concentration range of 0.644 to 29.48 μM/L. Two compounds exhibit antiproliferative activity in sub-micromolar concentrations (16, 19). Five compounds act in low micromolar concentrations ( 10). A strong structure-activity relationship, using estimated log P values and BCUT descriptors, was observed.
