A series of novel 4-aminobenzensulfonamide/carboxamide derivatives bearing naphthoquinone pharmacophore were designed, sythesized and evaluated for their proteasome inhibitory and antiproliferative activities against human breast cancer cell line (MCF-7). The structures of the synthesized compounds were confirmed by spectral and elemental analyses. The proteasome inhibitory activity studies were carried out using cell-based assay. The antiproteasomal activity results revealed that most of the compounds exhibited inhibitory activity with different percentages against the caspase-like (C-L, β1 subunit), trypsin-like (T-L, β2 subunit) and chymotrypsin-like (ChT-L, β5 subunit) activities of proteasome. Among the tested compounds, compound 14 bearing 5-chloro-2-pyridyl ring on the nitrogen atom of sulfonamide group is the most active compound in the series and displayed higher inhibition with IC50 values of 9.90 ± 0.61, 44.83 ± 4.23 and 22.27 ± 0.15 μM against ChT-L, C-L and T-L activities of proteasome compared to the lead compound PI-083 (IC50 = 12.47 ± 0.21, 53.12 ± 2.56 and 26.37 ± 0.5 μM), respectively. The antiproliferative activity was also determined by MTT (3-(4,5-Dimethyl-2-thiazolyl)-2,5-diphenyl-2H-tetrazolium bromide) assay in vitro. According to the antiproliferative activity results, all of the compounds exhibited cell growth inhibitory activity in a range of IC50 = 1.72 ± 0.14–20.8 ± 0.5 μM and compounds 13 and 28 were found to be the most active compounds with IC50 values of 1.79 ± 0.21 and 1.72 ± 0.14 μM, respectively. Furthermore, molecular modeling studies were carried out for the compounds 13, 14 and 28 to investigate the ligand-enzyme binding interactions.
