When an organometallic catalyst is tethered onto a nanoparticle and is embedded in a monolayer of longer ligands terminated in "gating"end-groups, these groups can control the access and orientation of the incoming substrates. In this way, a nonspecific catalyst can become enzyme-like: it can select only certain substrates from substrate mixtures and, quite remarkably, can also preorganize these substrates such that only some of their otherwise equivalent sites react. For a simple, copper-based click reaction catalyst and for gating ligands terminated in charged groups, both substrate- and site-selectivities are on the order of 100, which is all the more notable given the relative simplicity of the on-particle monolayers compared to the intricacy of enzymes' active sites. The strategy of self-assembling macromolecular, on-nanoparticle environments to enhance selectivities of "ordinary"catalysts presented here is extendable to other types of catalysts and gating based on electrostatics, hydrophobicity, and chirality, or the combinations of these effects. Rational design of such systems should be guided by theoretical models we also describe.

In the present study a library of thiophenol-formaldehyde-triazole (TFT) derivatives was synthesized and screened against CAOV3, CAOV4 and ES-2 ovary cancer cell lines. Initial screening revealed that five-compounds 5a, 5b, 5j, 5h and 5i inhibited the viability of tested cell lines. Analysis of apoptosis revealed that increase in compound 5a (most active) concentration from 0.25 to 2.0 μM enhanced apoptotic cell proportion. Transwell assay showed reduction in invasive potential of CAOV3 cells on treatment with compound 5a. In wound healing assay increasing the concentration of compound 5a from 0.5 to 2.0 μM caused a significant (P 0.05) decrease in the migration potential. Western blotting showed that compound 5a treatment markedly decreased the level of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-2 and ?9 in CAOV3 cells. Treatment of CAOV3 cells with compound 5a caused a marked decrease in Focal Adhesion Kinase (FAK) activation. Tumor growth was inhibited in the compound 5a treated mice markedly than those of untreated group. The tumor metastasis to liver, intestine, spleen and peritoneal cavity was markedly decreased in mice treated with 10 mg/kg dose of compound 5a. Examination of Von Willebrand factor (vWF) expression in liver, intestinal and pulmonary lesions showed a marked decrease in the compound 5a-treated mice. The infiltration of macrophages in the metastatic lesions showed a significant decrease in compound 5a-treated mice. In conclusion, the compound 5a inhibited ovary cancer cell viability and induced apoptosis through decrease in expression of vWF and metalloproteinase, suppression of FAK activation and decrease in infiltration of macrophages. The compound 5a therefore can be investigated further for the treatment of ovary cancer.
