A series of bisintercalating DNA binding bisanthrapyrazole compounds containing piperazine linkers were designed by molecular modeling and docking techniques. Because the anthrapyrazoles are not quinones they are unable to be reductively activated like doxorubicin and other anthracyclines and thus they should not be cardiotoxic. The concentration dependent increase in DNA melting temperature was used to determine the strength of DNA binding and the bisintercalation potential of the compounds. Compounds with more than a three-carbon linker that could span four DNA base pairs achieved bisintercalation. All of the bisanthrapyrazoles inhibited human erythroleukemic K562 cell growth in the low to submicromolar concentration range. They also strongly inhibited the decatenation activity of topoisomerase IIα and the relaxation activity of topoisomerase I. However, as measured by their ability to induce double strand breaks in plasmid DNA, the bisanthrapyrazole compounds did not act as topoisomerase IIα poisons. In conclusion, a novel group of bisanthrapyrazole compounds were designed, synthesized, and biologically evaluated as potential anticancer agents.
PROCESS FOR MANUFACTURING ALKYLENEAMINE COMPOUNDS

Paragraph 0118-0121, (2021/09/11)
The invention pertains to a process for manufacturing alkyleneamine compounds, comprising the steps of - in a reaction medium reacting an alkyleneurea compound comprising at least one primary amine group, or at least one cyclic secondary amine group, or at least one primary amine group and at least one cyclic secondary amine group, and at least one cyclic alkyleneurea group of formula I wherein A is selected from the group of C2 to C4 alkylene units, optionally substituted by one or more C1 to C3 alkyl groups, with an alkylhalide compound to form an alkyleneamine hydrohalide salt comprising at least one cyclic alkyleneurea group of formula I, the alkylhalide compound being selected from the group of haloalkanes with 2-6 halogen atoms, and haloaminoalkanes, and - reacting the alkyleneamine hydrohalide salt with a base to form an alkyleneamine compound comprising at least one cyclic alkyleneurea group of formula I. In one embodiment the reaction is carried out in the presence of one or more of ammonia and additional alkyleneamine compound. The process according to the invention produces less cyclic and branched side products and more straight-chain higher alkyleneamines than conventional processes, in particular more straight-chain ethyleneamines selected from L-TETA, L-TEPA, and L-PEHA. The formula I is represented herein.

In this study, we synthesized a series of double-component O2-aryl diazeniumdiolate (DDNO) derivatives, of which each molecule can release up to four nitric oxide molecules. These compounds showed cytotoxic activities to cancer cells, such as human leukemia, breast cancer and lung cancer. Among them, compound 1 (DDNO-1) showed the highest specific activity to human leukemia cells. It induced cell apopotosis and arrest cell cycle of G2/M phase. The JNK and p38 protein kinases were activated by compound 1 to induce cancer cell apoptosis. Compound 1 also increased pro-apoptotic Bax level, which is a same function compared to a reported NO donor, JS-K. More interestingly, it decreased the level of an anti-apoptotic member Bcl-2, which is an opposite effect compared to JS-K. Compound 1 could be developed as a new anti-cancer agent since it increases the Bax/Bcl-2 ratio to overcome the drug resistance.

, p. 1370 - 1375 (2007/10/02)
New bis-piperazine-type pH buffer agents were synthesized and their buffering properties were evaluated.The compounds proved to have two-fold larger pH buffering ability than 2-ethanesulfonic acid (HEPES), a Good's buffer traditionally used to control the pH value of culture media.Human-human hybridoma HB4C5 cells were cultured in a serum-free medium containing these buffer agents.The cell growth and antibody production, using 1,2-N,N'-bisethane, were greater than when HEPES.

-
, (2008/06/13)
Bivalent ligand compounds synthesized from a tether composition joining two heterocyclic groups comprising furochromones, furobenzoxazinones, and benzobisdifurans. These compounds show pharmacological activity in blocking ACAT enzymes which are major regulators of cholesterol metabolism. The compounds also show activity in lowering plasma triglycerides and elevating HDL cholesterol. They are useful in the prevention or treatment of the constriction or obstruction of arterial vessels, atherosclerosis, hyperlipidemia, hypertriglyceridemia, chylomicronemia, and pancreatitis.
