- 2-((3,5-Dinitrobenzyl)thio)quinazolinones: Potent Antimycobacterial Agents Activated by Deazaflavin (F420)-Dependent Nitroreductase (Ddn)
-
Swapping the substituents in positions 2 and 4 of the previously synthesized but yet undisclosed 5-cyano-4-(methylthio)-2-arylpyrimidin-6-ones 4, ring closure, and further optimization led to the identification of the potent antitubercular 2-thio-substituted quinazolinone 26. Structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies indicated a crucial role for both meta-nitro substituents for antitubercular activity, while the introduction of polar substituents on the quinazolinone core allowed reduction of bovine serum albumin (BSA) binding (63c, 63d). While most of the tested quinazolinones exhibited no cytotoxicity against MRC-5, the most potent compound 26 was found to be mutagenic via the Ames test. This analogue exhibited moderate inhibitory potency against Mycobacterium tuberculosis thymidylate kinase, the target of the 3-cyanopyridones that lies at the basis of the current analogues, indicating that the whole-cell antimycobacterial activity of the present S-substituted thioquinazolinones is likely due to modulation of alternative or additional targets. Diminished antimycobacterial activity was observed against mutants affected in cofactor F420 biosynthesis (fbiC), cofactor reduction (fgd), or deazaflavin-dependent nitroreductase activity (rv3547), indicating that reductive activation of the 3,5-dinitrobenzyl analogues is key to antimycobacterial activity.

- The synthesized novel fluorinated compound (LJJ-10) induces death receptor- and mitochondria-dependent apoptotic cell death in the human osteogenic sarcoma U-2 OS cells
-
We designed the 6-fluoro-2-(3-fluorophenyl)-4-substituted anilinoquinazoline derivatives as less toxic anti-cancer candidates. Our result demonstrated that LJJ-10 has greater cytotoxicity than that of the other compounds in human osteogenic sarcoma U-2 OS cells. LJJ-10-induced apoptosis was associated with enhancing ROS generation, DNA damage, and an increase of the protein levels of Fas, FasL, FADD, caspase-8, cytochrome c, Apaf-1, AIF, Endo G, caspase-9 and caspase-3 in U-2 OS cells. LJJ-10-triggered growth inhibition was significantly attenuated by N-acetylcysteine, cyclosporine A, anti-FasL monoclonal antibody, and caspase-8, -9 and -3 specific inhibitors in U-2 OS cells. We suggest that LJJ-10-induced apoptotic cell death in U-2 OS cells through death receptor- and mitochondria-dependent apoptotic signaling pathways.
