Flavone derivatives have been shown to possess anti-inflammatory properties in various inflammation model systems; however, their underlying molecular mechanisms remain elusive. In this study, a flavone derivative 3′,4′,5′-trihydroxyflavone (THF; NJK16003) was synthesized, and its anti-inflammatory effects and molecular targets were investigated using in vitro systems and an in vivo colitis model. NJK16003 showed potent anti-inflammatory activities in cell-based assays using macrophages. In vitro enzyme activity assays using various inflammation-related kinases revealed the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) as a possible molecular target. Treatment of RAW264.7 cells with NJK16003 resulted in an increase in light chain 3B protein lipidation and a decrease in p62 protein levels and ribosomal S6 kinase phosphorylation, indicating that NJK16003 induces autophagy through mTOR inhibition. NJK16003 treatment resulted in significant induction of autophagy and suppression of inflammatory responses in intestinal epithelial cells. Autophagy induction has been shown to alleviate colitis by suppressing inflammatory responses and apoptotic cell death of intestinal epithelial cells. Indeed, inflammatory responses and intestinal epithelial cell death in our DSS-induced colitis mouse model were significantly suppressed by NJK16003 treatment. Our results indicate that NJK16003 could suppress inflammation by inducing autophagy through its mTOR inhibitory activity. These results suggest that NJK16003 could be a possible therapeutic agent for the treatment of inflammatory bowel diseases including colitis.

A new synthetic strategy utilizing POCl3-water for the conversion of 2′-hydroxychalcones to flavanones and flavones has been developed. The reagent efficiently promoted one-pot conversion of 2′-hydroxychalcones to flavones through flavanones involving cyclization and oxidative dehydrogenation. By changing the stoichiometery of the reagents, the reaction can be tuned to generate either flavanone or flavone. The developed protocol was found to be applicable for a variety of 2′-hydroxychalcones.

An operationally efficient and regioselective hydrodehalogenation methodology of aromatic α-and β-halo carbonyl compounds has been developed using CuI in isopropanol at 90 °C under basic condition. The catalytic system effectively dehalogenates chloride, bromide, and iodide groups and af-forded high yield (up to 97 %) as carbonyl compounds. The methodology is environmentally friendly and demonstrates excellent tolerance to a broad range of electronically rich and poor substituents.

Polyfunctional compounds comprise a novel class of therapeutic agents for the treatment of multi-factorial diseases. A series of 2-Phenyl-4H-chromen-4-one and its derivatives (5a–n) were designed, synthesized, and evaluated for their poly-functionality against acetylcholinestrase (AChE) and advanced glycation end products (AGEs) formation inhibitors against Alzheimer’s disease (AD). The screening results showed that most of them exhibited a significant ability to inhibit AChE AGEs formation with additional radical scavenging activity. Especially, 5m, 5b, and 5j displayed the greatest ability to inhibit AChE (IC50 = 8.0, 8.2, and 11.8 nM, respectively) and AGEs formation (IC50 = 55, 79, and 54 μM, respectively) with good antioxidant activity. Molecular docking studies explored the detailed interaction pattern with active, peripheral, and mid-gorge sites of AChE. These compounds, exhibiting such multiple pharmacological activities, can be further taken a lead for the development of potent drugs for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease.

Chagas disease is included in the neglected tropical diseases list and is endemic to 21 Latin American countries. The two drugs currently available for treating Chagas disease are nifurtimox and benznidazole and both result in many significant side effects. The study describes the synthesis and biological evaluation of 3,5-disubstituted isoxazoles. Isoxazoles were obtained by reaction of flavones and hydroxylamine and either alkylated at the free hydroxyl group and/or nitrated at the isoxazole ring. These compounds were evaluated for their in vitro anti-Trypanosoma cruzi activity against trypomastigote and amastigote forms of the parasite in T. cruzi-infected cell lineages. Benznidazole was used as a reference compound for the in vitro assay and mammalian L929 cells were employed to evaluate cytotoxicity. A majority of the compounds tested were very active and the most active isoxazole against amastigote and trypomastigotes of T. cruzi was slightly more potent than the current medicine benznidazole.

Background: Cancers of the lymphatic cells (lymphomas) account for approximately 12% of malignant diseases worldwide. The nitrostyrene scaffold is identified as a lead target structure for the development of particularly effective compounds targeting Burkitt’s lymphoma (BL). Objectives: The aims of the curent study were to synthesise a panel of nitrostyrene compounds and to evaluate their activity in Burkitt’s lymphoma (BL). Methods: A panel of structurally varied compounds were designed and synthesised using Henry Knoevenagel condensation reactions. Single crystal X-Ray analysis confirmed the E configuration for six examples of these novel structures. A number of nitrostyrene-related compounds were also investigated including 1,3-bis(aryl)-2-nitropropenes together with heterocyclic scaffolds containing the nitrovinyl pharmacophore such as 3-nitro-2-phenyl-2H-chromenes. The antiproliferative activities of the compounds were evaluated using the BL cell lines EBV- MUTU-1 and EBV+ DG-75 (chemoresistant) to establish preliminary structure-activity relationships. Results: Lead compounds with optimized nitrostyrene scaffolds and 3-nitro-2-phenyl-2Hchromene structures were successfully established with typical IC50 values of 0.45 μM and 0.47 μM in MUTU-1 cells and 1.41 μM and 1.92 μM, respectively, in DG-75 cells. The mechanism of cell death was identified as apoptotic and the lead compound was found to elicit comparable apoptotic effects to Taxol in Burkitt’s lymphoma cell lines MUTU-1 and DG-75. Conclusion: This class of pharmaceutically active compounds with potential for the treatment of Burkitt’s lymphoma suggest a potential role for nitrostyrene based agents in chemotherapy.
