A series of novel xanthine/NO donor hybrids containing 1,3,8-trisubstituted or 1,8-disubstituted xanthine derivatives were designed and synthesized. The synthesized compounds were tested in a cell viability assay using human mammary gland epithelial cell line (MCF-10A) where all the compounds exhibited no cytotoxic effects and more than 90% cell viability at a concentration of 50 μM. The oxime containing compounds 7a-b and 17-24 were more active as antiproliferative agents than their non-oxime congeners 6a-b and 9-16. Hydroxyimino-phenethyl scaffold compounds 17-24 were more active than the hydroxyimino-ethyl phenyl acetamide 7a-b derivatives. Compounds 18–20 and 22-24 exhibited inhibition of EGFR with IC50 ranging from 0.32 to 2.88 μM. Compounds 18-20 and 22-24 increased the level of active caspase 3 by 4–8 folds, compared to the control cells in Panc-1 cell lines compared to doxorubicin as a reference drug. Compounds 18, 22 and 23 were the most caspase-3 inducers. Compounds 22 and 23 increased the levels of caspase-8 and 9 indicating activation of both intrinsic and extrinsic pathways and showed potent induction of Bax, down-regulation of Bcl-2 protein levels and over-expression of cytochrome c levels in Panc-1 human pancreas cancer cells. Compound 23 exhibited mainly cell cycle arrest at the Pre-G1 and G2/M phases in the cell cycle analysis of Panc-1 cell line. The drug likeness profiles of compounds 18-20 and 22-24 were predicted to have good to excellent drug likeness profiles specially compounds 18-20 and 23. Finally molecular docking study was performed at the EGFR active site to suggest thier possible binding mode. The hydroxyimino-phenethyl scaffold compounds 17-24 represent an interesting starting point to optimize their pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics profiles.

One of the helpful ways to improve the effectiveness of anticancer agents and weaken drug resistance is to use hybrid molecules. therefore, the current study intended to introduce 20 novel xanthine/chalcone hybrids 9–28 of promising anticancer activity. Compounds 10, 11, 13, 14, 16, 20 and 23 exhibited potent inhibition of cancer cells growth with IC50 ranging from 1.0 ± 0.1 to 3.5 ± 0.4 μM compared to doxorubicin with IC50 ranging from 0.90 ± 0.62 to 1.41 ± 0.58 μM and that compounds 11 and 16 were the best. To verify the mechanism of their anticancer activity, compounds 10, 11, 13, 14, 16, 20 and 23 were evaluated for their EGFR inhibitory effect. The study results revealed that compound 11 showed IC50 = 0.3 μM on the target enzyme which is more potent than staurosporine reference drug (IC50 = 0.4 μM). Accordingly, the apoptotic effect of the most potent compounds 11 was extensively investigated and showed a marked increase in Bax level up to 29 folds, and down-regulation in Bcl2 to 0.28 fold, in comparison to the control. Furthermore, the effect of compound 11 on Caspases 3 and 8 was evaluated and was found to increase their levels by 8 and 14 folds, respectively. Also, the effect of compound 11 on the cell cycle and its cytotoxic effect were examined. Moreover, a molecular docking study was adopted to confirm mechanism of action.

Nucleotide pyrophosphatase/phosphodiesterase 1 (NPP1) belongs to the family of ecto-nucleotidases, which control extracellular nucleotide, nucleoside, and (di)phosphate levels. To study the (patho)physiological roles of NPP1 potent and selective inhibitors with drug-like properties are required. Therefore, a compound library was screened for NPP1 inhibitors using a colorimetric assay with p-nitrophenyl 5′-thymidine monophosphate (p-Nph-5′-TMP) as an artificial substrate. This led to the discovery of 2-(3H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-2-ylthio)-N-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)acetamide (5a) as a hit compound with a Ki value of 217 nM. Subsequent structure-activity relationship studies led to the development of purine and imidazo[4,5-b]pyridine analogues with high inhibitory potency (Ki values of 5.00 nM and 29.6 nM, respectively) when assayed with p-Nph-5′-TMP as a substrate. Surprisingly, the compounds were significantly less potent when tested versus ATP as a substrate, with Ki values in the low micromolar range. A prototypic inhibitor was investigated for its mechanism of inhibition and found to be competitive versus both substrates.

Theophylline derivatives have long been recognized as potent bronchodilators for the relief of acute asthma. Recently, it was found that bacterial infection has a role in asthma pathogenesis. The present work involves the design and synthesis of 8-substituted theophylline derivatives as bronchodilators and antibacterial agents. The chemical structures of these compounds were elucidated by IR, 1H-NMR, mass spectrometry, and elemental analyses. The bronchodilator activity was evaluated using acetylcholine-induced bronchospasm in guinea pigs, and most of the compounds showed significant anti-bronchoconstrictive activity in comparison with standard aminophylline. In addition, the antibacterial activity of all the target compounds was investigated in vitro against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria using ampicillin as a reference drug. Results showed that some of the tested compounds possessed significant antibacterial activity. A pharmacophore model was computed to obtain useful insight into the essential structural features of bronchodilator activity. A structure activity relationship was also discussed.
