Thymidine phosphorylase (TP) inhibitors have attracted great attention due to their ability to suppress the tumors formation. In our ongoing research, a series of 1,3,4-oxadiazole-2-thione (1-12) has been synthesized under simple reaction conditions in good to excellent yields (86-98%) and their TP inhibition potential has also been evaluated. The majority of synthesized compounds showed moderate thymidine phosphorylase inhibitory activity with IC50 values ranging from 38.24 ± 1.28 to 258.43 ± 0.43 μM, and 7-deazaxanthine (7DX) was used as a reference compound (IC50 38.68 ± 4.42). The TP activity was very much dependent on the C-5 substituents; among this series the compound 6 bearing 4-hydroxyphenyl group was found to be the most active with IC50 38.24 ± 1.28 μM. Molecular docking studies revealed their binding mode.

Abstract: Herein we report the synthesis of new N-4-piperazinyl thiadiazole and oxadiazole ciprofloxacin derivatives and their antibacterial and antimycobacterial activities. Although thiadiazole ciprofloxacin derivatives compound showed broad spectrum antibacterial activity against all the tested strains either Gram-positive or Gram-negative organisms, the oxadiazole derivatives exhibited weaker antibacterial and antimycobacterial activities than thiadiazole derivatives against most of the tested strains compared with the reference ciprofloxacin. Moreover, the antimycobacterial screening revealed that compounds which containing thiadiazole scaffold potently inhibited Mycobacterium smegmatis at MIC of 1.56 and 3.13, respectively, and modestly inhibited the drug-resistant strains. DNA cleavage assay revealed that thiadiazole ciprofloxacin derivatives inhibited supercoil relaxation, albeit to a lesser extent than ciprofloxacin, and it also increased the amount of nicked substrate produced.

A new series of 1,3,4-oxadiazole/chalcone hybrids was designed, synthesized, identified with different spectroscopic techniques and biologically evaluated as inhibitors of EGFR, Src, and IL-6. The synthesized compounds showed promising anticancer activity, particularly against leukemia, with 8v being the most potent. The synthesized compounds exhibited strong to moderate cytotoxic activities against K-562, KG-1a, and Jurkat leukemia cell lines in MTT assays. Compound 8v showed the strongest cytotoxic activity with IC50 of 1.95 μM, 2.36 μM and 3.45 μM against K-562, Jurkat and KG-1a leukemia cell lines, respectively. Moreover; the synthesized compounds inhibited EGFR, Src, and IL-6. Compound 8v was most effective at inhibiting EGFR (IC50 = 0.24 μM), Src (IC50 = 0.96 μM), and IL-6 (% of control = 20%). Additionally, most of the compounds decreased STAT3 activation.
