Novel hybrids of pyridazine-pyrazoline were synthesized aiming to develop new antiproliferative candidates. All compounds were submitted to the National Cancer Institute (NCI), USA, and many were proved to have significant antiproliferative activity. In addition, in vitro studies of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) inhibition showed that compounds IXn, IXg, IXb and IXl exhibited excellent inhibitory effect (IC50 = 0.65, 0.75, 0.82 and 0.84 μM, respectively) compared to Erlotinib (IC50 = 0.95 μM). The mechanistic effectiveness in cell cycle progression, apoptotic induction and gene regulation were assessed for the promising compounds IXg and IXn due to their significant EGFR inhibition. Flow cytometeric analysis indicated that compounds IXg and IXn result in increased cell numbers in phase G2/M, suggesting cell cycle arrest in phase G2/M in UO-31cells. Furthermore, real time PCR assay illustrated that compounds IXg and IXn elevated Bax/Bcl2 ratio which confirmed the mechanistic pathway of them. Moreover, the apoptotic induction of UO-31 renal cancer cells was enhanced effectively through activation of caspase-3 by compounds IXg and IXn. On the other hand, molecular docking study was performed to investigate binding mode of interaction of compounds with EGFR-PK in the active site with the aim of rationalizing its promising inhibitory activity. Finally, based on the aforementioned findings, compounds IXg and IXn could be considered as effective apoptosis modulators and promising leads for future development of new anti-renal cancer agents.

The cyclization of chalcones 3a-3u with 3-hydrazinyl-6-phenylpyridazine 7 under basic condition led to the formation of new pyrazoline derivatives 8a-8u. All final compounds were characterized by spectral and elemental analyses. They were screened for their antiproliferative activities against A549 (lung), HepG-2 (liver), CaCo-2 (intestinal) and MCF-7 (breast) cancer cell lines. Some of the synthesized compounds exhibited promising antiproliferative activities especially compound 8k with IC50values of 8.33, 1.67 and 10?μM against HepG-2, MCF-7 and CaCo-2 cancer cell lines, respectively. Moreover, their antiproliferative activity was due to apoptosis rather than necrosis induction except compound 8h which exhibited equal apoptotic and necrotic properties. Compound 8k showed 5 fold increase in caspase-3 activity indicating that the apoptosis proceeds via caspase-3 activation.
