VEGFR-2 is one of the most vital targets for the treatment of solid tumors. This work represents synthetic approaches of new set of quinoxaline-based derivatives having comparable essential pharmacophoric properties of VEGFR-2 inhibitors. The antiproliferative findings revealed that compound 21a displayed the most potent effect against MCF-7 and HepG2 cell lines with IC50 values of 12.9 and 7.5 μM, respectively. Further assessment was carried out for all the synthesized members against VEGFR-2 enzyme. Excitingly, the data of VEGFR-2 assay were comparable to that of antiproliferative assay. Compound 21a was the most powerful member against VEGFR-2 with an IC50 value of 3.8 nM, comparing to sorafenib (IC50 = 3.12 nM). Finally, molecular docking experiments were conducted to foresee how the synthesized compounds can bind to their prospective biological target; VEGFR-2. The docking results showed the ability of the synthesized compounds to bind VEGFR-2 in a correct manner. Lastly, computational physicochemical estimation of the most active candidates displayed that they have favorable assets with reasonable drug-likeness reports.

Targeting VEGFR-2 by new quinoxaline derivatives: Design, synthesis, antiproliferative assay, apoptosis induction, and in silico studies

Twelve new triazolo[4,3-a]quinoxaline-based compounds are reported as anticancer agents with potential effects against vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-2 (VEGFR-2), using sorafenib as a reference molecule. With sorafenib as the positive control, the antiproliferative effects of the synthesized compounds against MCF-7 and HepG2 cells, as well as their VEGFR-2-inhibitory activities, were assessed. The most powerful VEGFR-2 inhibitor was compound 14a, which had an IC50 value of 3.2 nM, which is very close to that of sorafenib (IC50 = 3.12 nM). Furthermore, compounds 14c and 15d showed potential inhibitory activity against VEGFR-2, with IC50 values of 4.8 and 5.4 nM, respectively. Compound 14a caused apoptosis in HepG2 cells and stopped the cell cycle at the G2/M phase. In HepG2 cells, it also increased the levels of the proteases caspase-3 and caspase-9, as well as the Bax/Bcl-2 ratio. In silico ADMET (absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion, and toxicity) and toxicity experiments revealed that the synthesized agents had acceptable drug-likeness.

Design, synthesis, molecular docking, anticancer evaluations, and in silico pharmacokinetic studies of novel 5-[(4-chloro/2,4-dichloro)benzylidene]thiazolidine-2,4-dione derivatives as VEGFR-2 inhibitors

The anticancer activity of novel thiazolidine-2,4-diones was evaluated against HepG2, HCT-116, and MCF-7 cells. MCF-7 was the most sensitive cell line to the cytotoxicity of the new derivatives. In particular, compounds 18, 12, 17, and 16 were found to be the most potent derivatives over all the tested compounds against the cancer cell lines HepG2, HCT116, and MCF-7, with IC50 = 9.16 ± 0.9, 8.98 ± 0.7, 5.49 ± 0.5 μM; 9.19 ± 0.5, 8.40 ± 0.7, 6.10 ± 0.4 μM; 10.78 ± 1.2, 8.87 ± 1.5, 7.08 ± 1.6 μM; and 10.87 ± 0.8, 9.05 ± 0.7, 7.32 ± 0.4 μM, respectively. Compounds 18 and 12 have nearly the same activities as sorafenib (IC50 = 9.18 ± 0.6, 5.47 ± 0.3, and 7.26 ± 0.3 μM, respectively), against HepG2 cells, but slightly lower activity against HCT116 cells and slightly higher activity against the MCF-7 cancer cell line. Also, these compounds displayed lower activities than doxorubicin against HepG2 and HCT-116 cells but higher activity against MCF-7 cells (IC50 = 7.94 ± 0.6, 8.07 ± 0.8, and 6.75 ± 0.4 μM, respectively). In contrast, compounds 17 and 16 exhibited lower activities than sorafenib against HepG2 and HCT116 cells, but nearly equipotent activity against the MCF-7 cancer cell line. Also, these compounds displayed lower activities than doxorubicin against the three cell lines. All the synthesized derivatives 7–18 were evaluated for their inhibitory activities against VEGFR-2. The tested compounds displayed high to medium inhibitory activity, with IC50 values ranging from 0.17 ± 0.02 to 0.27 ± 0.03 μM. Compounds 18, 12, 17, and 16 potently inhibited VEGFR-2 at IC50 values of 0.17 ± 0.02, 0.17 ± 0.02, 0.18 ± 0.02, and 0.18 ± 0.02 μM, respectively, which are nearly more than half of that of the IC50 value for sorafenib (0.10 ± 0.02 μM).

Design, synthesis, and anti-proliferative evaluation of new quinazolin-4(3H)-ones as potential VEGFR-2 inhibitors

Inhibiting VEGFR-2 has been set up as a therapeutic strategy for treatment of cancer. Thus, nineteen new quinazoline-4(3H)-one derivatives were designed and synthesized. Preliminary cytotoxicity studies of the synthesized compounds were evaluated against three human cancer cell lines (HepG-2, MCF-7 and HCT-116) using MTT assay method. Doxorubicin and sorafenib were used as positive controls. Five compounds were found to have promising cytotoxic activities against all cell lines. Compound 16f, containing a 2-chloro-5-nitrophenyl group, has emerged as the most active member. It was approximately 4.39-, 5.73- and 1.96-fold more active than doxorubicin and 3.88-, 5.59- and 1.84-fold more active than sorafenib against HepG2, HCT-116 and MCF-7 cells, respectively. The most active cytotoxic agents were further evaluated in vitro for their VEGFR-2 inhibitory activities. The results of in vitro VEGFR-2 inhibition were consistent with that of the cytotoxicity data. Molecular docking of these compounds into the kinase domain, moreover, supported the results.

Design, synthesis and biological evaluation of novel 5-(4-chlorophenyl)-4-phenyl-4H-1,2,4-triazole-3-thiols as an anticancer agent

Cellular tumor antigen p53 is significant for cancer prevention and its mutation is most documented genomic change in human cancers. Thus, restoration of p53 function by interruption of the p53-MDM2 interaction opens up a prospect for a nongenotoxic anticancer therapeutic strategy. A novel series of molecules comprising 1,2,4-triazole-3-thiol scaffold were successfully discovered by structure-based designing approach. In silico modules predicted that 5-(4-chlorophenyl)-4-phenyl-4H-1,2,4-triazole-3-thiol derivatives have draggability and ability to mimic critical binding residues of p53. All target compounds were assayed for their in vitro antiproliferative activity against A549, U87 and HL60 cell lines. Twelve out of sixteen compounds exhibited good in vitro inhibitory activity in micromolar range. Especially, compound 6h possessed acute antitumor activity with IC50 values 3.854, 4.151 and 17.522 μM against three tested cell lines. It represents as a promising lead for further optimization and a template for development of novel antitumor agents.

New series of [1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-a]quinoxalin-4(5H)-one and [1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-a]quinoxaline derivatives have been designed, synthesized, and biologically assessed for their anti-proliferative activities against two selected tumor cell lines MCF-7 and HepG2. Comparing to sorafenib (IC50 = 2.17 ± 0.13 and 3.51 ± 0.21 μM against MCF-7 and HepG2, respectively), compound 25d, 25e, 25i, and 27e exhibited the highest activities against the examined cell lines with IC50 values extending from 4.1 ± 0.4 to 11.7 ± 1.1 μM. Furthermore, VEGFR-2 inhibitory activities were assessed for all the synthesized compounds as potential mechanisms for their anti-proliferative activities. Compounds 25d, 25e, 25i, and 27e displayed prominent inhibitory efficiency versus VEGFR-2 kinase with IC50 value ranging from 3.4 ± 0.3 to 6.8 ± 0.5 nM. Fascinatingly, the results of VEGFR-2 inhibitory assays were matched with that of the cytotoxicity data, where the most potent anti-proliferative derivatives exhibited promising VEGFR-2 inhibitory activities. Further studies displayed the ability of compound 25d to induce apoptosis in HepG2 cells and can arrest the growth of such cells at the G2/M phase. Also, compound 25d produced a significant increase in the level of BAX/Bcl-2 ratio (3.8-fold), caspase- 3 (1.8-fold), and caspase-9 (1.9-fold) compared to the control cells. Molecular docking studies were carried out to investigate the possible binding interaction inside the active site of the VEGFR-2.

Discovery of new VEGFR-2 inhibitors based on bis([1, 2, 4]triazolo)[4,3-a:3',4'-c]quinoxaline derivatives as anticancer agents and apoptosis inducers

Herein, a new wave of bis([1, 2, 4]triazolo)[4,3-a:3',4'-c]quinoxaline derivatives have been successfully designed and synthesised. The synthesised derivatives were biologically investigated for their cytotoxic activities against HepG2 and MCF-7. Also, the tested compounds were further examined in?vitro for their VEGFR-2 inhibitory activity. The most promising derivative 23j was further investigated for its apoptotic behaviour in HepG2 cell lines using flow cytometric and western-plot analyses. Additional in-silico studies were performed to predict how the synthesised compounds can bind to VEGFR-2 and to determine the drug-likeness profiling of these derivatives. The results revealed that compounds 23a, 23i, 23j, 23l, and 23n displayed the highest antiproliferative activities against the two cell lines with IC50 values ranging from 6.4 to 19.4 μM. Furthermore, compounds 23a, 23d, 23h, 23i, 23j, 23l, 23 m, and 23n showed the highest VEGFR-2 inhibitory activities with IC50 values ranging from 3.7 to 11.8 nM, comparing to sorafenib (IC50 = 3.12 nM). Moreover, compound 23j arrested the HepG2 cell growth at the G2/M phase and induced apoptosis by 40.12% compared to the control cells (7.07%). As well, such compound showed a significant increase in the level of caspase-3 (1.36-fold), caspase-9 (2.80-fold), and BAX (1.65-fold), and exhibited a significant decrease in Bcl-2 level (2.63-fold).

New quinoxaline-based VEGFR-2 inhibitors: Design, synthesis, and antiproliferative evaluation with: In silico docking, ADMET, toxicity, and DFT studies

A new series of 3-methylquinoxaline-based derivatives having the same essential pharmacophoric features as VEGFR-2 inhibitors have been synthesized and evaluated for their antiproliferative activities against two human cancer cell lines, MCF-7 and HepG-2. Compounds 15b and 17b demonstrated a significant antiproliferative effect with IC50 ranging from 2.3 to 5.8 μM. An enzymatic assay was carried out for all the tested candidates against VEGFR-2. Compound 17b was the most potent VEGFR-2 inhibitor (IC50 = 2.7 nM). Mechanistic investigation including cell cycle arrest and apoptosis was performed for compound 17b against HepG-2 cells, and the results revealed that 17b induced cell apoptosis and arrested cell cycle in the G2/M phase. Moreover, apoptosis analyses were conducted for compound 17b to evaluate its apoptotic potential. The results showed upregulation in caspase-3 and caspase-9 levels, and improving the Bax/Bcl-2 ratio by more than 10-fold. Docking studies were performed to determine the possible interaction with the VEGFR-2 active site. Further docking studies were carried out for compound 17b against cytochrome P450 to present such compounds as non-inhibitors. In silico ADMET, toxicity, and physico-chemical properties revealed that most of the synthesized members have acceptable values of drug-likeness.
