In search for new and safer anti-cancer agents, a structurally guided pharmacophore hybridization strategy of two privileged scaffolds, namely diaryl pyrazolines and imidazolidine-2,4-dione (hydantoin), was adopted resulting in a newfangled series of compounds (H1-H22). Herein, a bio-isosteric replacement of “pyrrolidine-2,5-dione” moiety of our recently reported antitumor hybrid incorporating diaryl pyrazoline and pyrrolidine-2,5-dione scaffolds with “imidazoline-2,4-dione” moiety has been incorporated. Complete biological studies revealed the most potent analog among all i.e. compound H13, which was at-least 10-fold more potent compared to the corresponding pyrrolidine-2,5-dione, in colon and breast cancer cells. In-vitro studies showed activation of caspases, arrest of G0/G1 phase of cell cycle, decrease in the expression of anti-apoptotic protein (Bcl-2) and increased DNA damage. In-vivo assay on HT-29 (human colorectal adenocarcinoma) animal xenograft model unveiled the significant anti-tumor efficacy along with oral bioavailability with maximum TGI 36% (i.p.) and 44% (per os) at 50 mg/kg dose. These findings confirm the suitability of hybridized pyrazoline and imidazolidine-2,4-dione analog H13 for its anti-cancer potential and starting-point for the development of more efficacious analogs.

In anticancer drug discovery, multi-targeting compounds have been beneficial due to their advantages over single-targeting compounds. For instance, VEGFR-2 has a crucial role in angiogenesis and cancer management, whereas HDACs are well-known regulators o

In the present study, two novel series of compounds incorporating naphthyl and pyridyl linker were synthesized and biological assays revealed 5-((6-(2-(5-(2-chlorophenyl)-3-(4-fluorophenyl)-4,5-dihydro-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)-2-oxoethoxy) naphthalene-2-yl)methylene)thiazolidine-2,4-dione (14b) as the most potent dual inhibitors of vascular endothelial growth factors receptor-2 (VEGFR-2) and histone deacetylase 4 (HDAC4). Compounds 13b, 14b, 17f, and 21f were found to stabilize HDAC4; where, pyridyl linker swords were endowed with higher stabilization effects than naphthyl linker. Also, 13b and 14b showed best inhibitory activity on VEGFR-2 as compared to others. Compound 14b was most potent as evident by in-vitro and in-vivo biological assessments. It displayed anti-angiogenic potential by inhibiting endothelial cell proliferation, migration, tube formation and also suppressed new capillary formation in the growing chick chorioallantoic membranes (CAMs). It showed selectivity and potency towards HDAC4 as compared to other HDAC isoforms. Compound 14b (25 mg/kg, i.p.) also indicated exceptional antitumor efficacy on in-vivo animal xenograft model of human colorectal adenocarcinoma (HT-29). The mechanism of action of 14b was also confirmed by western blot.

A new series of 4-methyl-6-nitro-2-oxo-2H-chroman-7yl-2-(4-(4-fluorophenyl)-6-phenyl-2H-1,3-thiazin-2-yl-amino)acetates 5a–j were synthesized from 6-nitro-4-methyl coumarinyl chloroacetate (5) and 2-amino thiazines (IIIa–j). The structure of the final compounds was adequately confirmed via spectroscopic techniques (IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, Mass) and characterization of physical properties. Final compounds were screened for their antimicrobial, antitubercular, and antioxidant activities. Compounds 5c and 5h found to have antibacterial potency against E. coli with MIC values 50 μg/mL compared to standard drugs. Compound 5d demonstrated better antifungal potency (MIC = 200 μg/mL) against C. albicans when compared with griseofulvin. Compounds 5b and 5h found to be encouraging antitubercular (MIC = 62.5 μg/mL with 98–99% inhibition) against M. tuberculosis H37Rv. The newly synthesized 5h and 5b were appeared to have high radical scavenging efficacies as 33.99 ± 0.301 and 35.35 ± 0.470 μg/mL ± SD of IC50 values, respectively, in DPPH and ABTS bioassay.

A new series of benzofuran-2-yl(4,5-diydro-3,5-substituted diphenylpyrazol-1-yl) methanone derivatives 8a-x by the reaction of the benzofuran-2-carbohydrazides 7 with various chalcone derivatives 3a-x using microwave irradiation has been described. The effect of synthesized compounds 8a-v was studied against human cancer cell lines for their antiproliferative activity and reversal of multidrug resistance on human MDR1-gene transfected mouse lymphoma cells. Among the 24 compounds, the 8c and 8h showed good antiproliferative activity 8b, 8f and 8k were exhibited good MDR reversal activity. The main significance of the process is easy workup process, short reaction time and high yield of the new compounds for biological interest. However, the studies on genetically modified multidrug resistant cancer cells are costly and time consuming.
