Synthesis, Structure and Biological Activity of Amide-Functionalized Titanocenyls: Improving their Cytotoxic Properties.

ABSTRACT: Nine amide-functionalized titanocenyls have been synthesized and characterized by spectroscopic and analytical methods and the solid state structure of Cp(CpCO-NH-C(6)H(4)-OCF(3))TiCl(2) was determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction. X-ray analysis of Cp(CpCO-NH-C(6)H(4)-OCF(3))TiCl(2) showed that titanium is in a pseudo tetrahedral geometry and contains a Ti-O(amide) coordination. In principle, Ti-O coordination should provide more hydrolytic stability to the corresponding titanocenyls than titanocene dichloride. The cytotoxic activities of these amide-functionalized titanocenyls on HT-29 colon cancer cell line were determined by MTT assay to elucidate structure-activity relationship. All complexes were more cytotoxic than titanocene dichloride and there is no correlation between the para substituents on the phenyl ring and their cytotoxicities.

Enhanced Cytotoxic Activity of PEGylated Curcumin Derivatives: Synthesis, Structure-Activity Evaluation, and Biological Activity.

Project description:Curcumin has been modified in various ways to broaden its application in medicine and address its limitations. In this study, we present a series of curcumin-based derivatives obtained by replacing the hydroxy groups in the feruloyl moiety with polyethylene glycol (PEG) chains and the addition of the BF2 moiety to the carbonyl groups. Tested compounds were screened for their cytotoxic activity toward two bladder cancer cell lines, 5637 and SCaBER, and a noncancerous cell line derived from lung fibroblasts (MRC-5). Cell viability was analyzed under normoxic and hypoxic conditions (1% oxygen). Structure-activity relationships (SARs) are discussed, and curcumin derivatives equipped within feruloyl moieties with 3-methoxy and 4-{2-[2-(2-methoxyethoxy)ethoxy]ethoxy} substituents (5) were selected for further analysis. Compound 5 did not affect the viability of MRC-5 cells and exerted a stronger cytotoxic effect under hypoxic conditions. However, the flow cytometry studies showed that PEGylation did not improve cellular uptake. Another observation was that the lack of serum proteins limits the intracellular uptake of curcumin derivative 5. The preliminary mechanism of action studies indicated that compound 5 under hypoxic conditions induced G2/M arrest in a dose-dependent manner and increased the expression of stress-related proteins such as p21/CIP1, phosphorylated HSP27, ADAMTS-1, and phosphorylated JNK. In summary, the results of the studies indicated that PEGylated curcumin is a more potent compound against bladder cancer cell lines than the parent compound, and derivative 5 is worthy of further investigation to clarify its mechanism of anticancer action under hypoxic conditions.

Design, Synthesis, and Biological Activity of Novel Ferulic Amide Ac5c Derivatives.

Project description:A total of 34 novel ferulic amide Ac5c derivatives were designed and synthesized and their antipest activities were investigated. The results showed that some compounds exhibited excellent in vitro antibacterial activity against Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo) and X. oryzae pv. oryzicola (Xoc), such as compounds 4q and 5n demonstrated excellent in vitro activity against Xoo, with EC50 values of 4.0, and 1.9 μg/mL, respectively. Compounds 4c, 4h, 4m, 4p, 4q, and 5a had significant in vitro activities against Xoc, with EC50 values of 12.5, 13.9, 9.8 15.0, 9.2, and 19.8 μg/mL, respectively. Moreover, the antibacterial activity in vivo against rice bacterial leaf blight was also evaluated. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) showed that compound 5n significantly reduced the cell membrane of Xoo, and resulted in cell surface wilting, deformation, breakage, and increased porous attributes. In addition, some of the target compounds also showed moderate biological activity against fungi and acted as potential insecticides.

Synthesis and Biological Activity of Myricetin Derivatives Containing Pyrazole Piperazine Amide.

Project description:In this paper, a series of derivatives were synthesized by introducing the pharmacophore pyrazole ring and piperazine ring into the structure of the natural product myricetin through an amide bond. The structures were determined using carbon spectrum and hydrogen spectrum high-resolution mass spectrometry. Biological activities of those compounds against bacteria, including Xac (Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. Citri), Psa (Pseudomonas syringae pv. Actinidiae) and Xoo (Xanthomonas oryzae pv. Oryzae) were tested. Notably, D6 exhibited significant bioactivity against Xoo with an EC50 value of 18.8 μg/mL, which was higher than the control drugs thiadiazole-copper (EC50 = 52.9 μg/mL) and bismerthiazol (EC50 = 69.1 μg/mL). Furthermore, the target compounds were assessed for their antifungal activity against ten plant pathogenic fungi. Among them, D1 displayed excellent inhibitory activity against Phomopsis sp. with an EC50 value of 16.9 μg/mL, outperforming the control agents azoxystrobin (EC50 = 50.7 μg/mL) and fluopyram (EC50 = 71.8 μg/mL). In vitro tests demonstrated that D1 possessed curative (60.6%) and protective (74.9%) effects on postharvest kiwifruit. To investigate the active mechanism of D1, its impact on SDH activity was evaluated based on its structural features and further confirmed through molecular docking. Subsequently, the malondialdehyde content of D1-treated fungi was measured, revealing that D1 could increase malondialdehyde levels, thereby causing damage to the cell membrane. Additionally, the EC50 value of D16 on P. capsici was 11.3 μg/mL, which was superior to the control drug azoxystrobin (EC50 = 35.1 μg/mL), and the scanning electron microscopy results indicated that the surface of drug-treated mycelium was ruffled, and growth was significantly affected.

Lerisetron Analogues with Antimalarial Properties: Synthesis, Structure-Activity Relationship Studies, and Biological Assessment.

Project description:A phenotypic whole cell high-throughput screen against the asexual blood and liver stages of the malaria parasite identified a benzimidazole chemical series. Among the hits were the antiemetic benzimidazole drug Lerisetron 1 (IC50 NF54 = 0.81 μM) and its methyl-substituted analogue 2 (IC50 NF54 = 0.098 μM). A medicinal chemistry hit to lead effort led to the identification of chloro-substituted analogue 3 with high potency against the drug-sensitive NF54 (IC50 NF54 = 0.062 μM) and multidrug-resistant K1 (IC50 K1 = 0.054 μM) strains of the human malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum. Compounds 2 and 3 gratifyingly showed in vivo efficacy in both Plasmodium berghei and P. falciparum mouse models of malaria. Cardiotoxicity risk as expressed in strong inhibition of the human ether-a-go-go-related gene (hERG) potassium channel was identified as a major liability to address. This led to the synthesis and biological assessment of around 60 analogues from which several compounds with improved antiplasmodial potency, relative to the lead compound 3, were identified.

Synthesis, structure-activity relationships and biological evaluation of 7-phenyl-pyrroloquinolinone 3-amide derivatives as potent antimitotic agents.

Project description:A small library of 7-pyrrolo[3,2-f]quinolinones was obtained by introducing benzoyl, sulfonyl and carbamoyl side chains at the 3-N position, and their cytotoxicity against a panel of leukemic and solid tumor cell lines was evaluated. Most of them showed high antiproliferative activity with GI50s ranging from micro-to sub-nanomolar values, and these values correlated well with the inhibitory activities of the compounds against tubulin polymerization. Based on a recently proposed colchicine bind site inhibitors (CBSIs) pharmacophore, the interactions of the novel 7-PPyQs at the colchicine domain were rationalized. The most active compounds (4a and 4b) did not induce significant cell death in normal human lymphocytes, suggesting that the compounds may be selective against cancer cells. In particular, 4a was a potent inducer of apoptosis in both the HeLa and Jurkat cell lines. On the other hand, the sulfonyl derivative 4b exhibited a lower potency in comparison with 4a. With both compounds, induction of apoptosis was associated with dissipation of the mitochondrial transmembrane potential and production of reactive oxygen species, suggesting that cells treated with the compounds followed the intrinsic pathway of apoptosis.

Sulfonate derivatives bearing an amide unit: design, synthesis and biological activity studies.

Project description:Pest disasters which occurs on crops is a serious problem that not only cause crop yield loss or even crop failure but can also spread a number of plant diseases.Sulfonate derivatives have been widely used in insecticide and fungicide research in recent years. On this basis, a series of sulfonate derivatives bearing an amide unit are synthesized and the biological activities are evaluated. The bioassay results showed that compounds A8, A13, A16, B1, B3, B4, B5, B10, B12 - 20, C3, C5, C9, C10, C14, C15, C17 and C19 showed 100% activity at a concentration of 500 µg/mL against the Plutella xylostella (P. xylostella). Among them, B15 which contains a thiadiazole sulfonate structure still shows 100% activity at 50 µg/mL concentration against P. xylostella and had the lowest median lethal concentration (LC50) (7.61 µg/mL) among the target compounds. Further mechanism studies are conducted on compounds with better insecticidal activity. Molecular docking results shows that B15 formed hydrophobic interactions π-π and hydrogen bonds with the indole ring of Trp532 and the carboxyl group of Asp384, respectively, with similar interaction distances or bond lengths as those of diflubenzuron. Moreover, chitinase inhibition assays are performed to further demonstrate its mode of action. In addition, the anti-bacterial activity of the series of compounds is also tested and the results showed that the series of compounds has moderate biological activity against Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo) and Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzicola (Xoc), with inhibition rates of 91%, 92% and 92%, 88% at the concentration of 100 µg/mL, respectively. Our study indicates that B15 can be used as a novel insecticide for crop protection.

Anti-Leishmanial and Cytotoxic Activities of a Series of Maleimides: Synthesis, Biological Evaluation and Structure-Activity Relationship.

Project description:In the present study, 45 maleimides have been synthesized and evaluated for anti-leishmanial activities against L. donovani in vitro and cytotoxicity toward THP1 cells. All compounds exhibited obvious anti-leishmanial activities. Among the tested compounds, there were 10 maleimides with superior anti-leishmanial activities to standard drug amphotericin B, and 32 maleimides with superior anti-leishmanial activities to standard drug pentamidine, especially compounds 16 (IC50 < 0.0128 ?g/mL) and 42 (IC50 < 0.0128 ?g/mL), which showed extraordinary efficacy in an in vitro test and low cytotoxicities (CC50 > 10 ?g/mL). The anti-leishmanial activities of 16 and 42 were 10 times better than that of amphotericin B. The structure and activity relationship (SAR) studies revealed that 3,4-non-substituted maleimides displayed the strongest anti-leishmanial activities compared to those for 3-methyl-maleimides and 3,4-dichloro-maleimides. 3,4-dichloro-maleimides were the least cytotoxic compared to 3-methyl-maleimides and 3,4-non-substituted maleimides. The results show that several of the reported compounds are promising leads for potential anti-leishmanial drug development.

Synthesis, structure, electrochemistry, and cytotoxic properties of ferrocenyl ester derivatives.

Project description:A series of ferrocenyl ester complexes, varying the lipophilic character of the pendant groups, was prepared and characterized by spectroscopic and analytical methods. The syntheses of Fe(C(5)H(4)CO(2)CH(3))(2), Fe(CpCOOCH(3)) (CpCOO CH(2)CH(3)), and Fe(CpCOOCH(2)CH(3))(2) are reported. The solid-state structure of Fe(C(5)H(4)CO(2)CH(3))(2) has been determined by X-ray crystallography. Fe(C(5)H(4)CO(2)CH(3))(2) has the cyclopentadienyl rings virtually in an eclipsed conformation with the pendant groups not completely opposite to each other. Cyclic voltammetry characterization showed that the functionalized ferrocenes oxidize at potentials, E(pa), higher than ferrocene as a result of the electro withdrawing effect of the pendant groups on the cyclopentadienyl ligand. The cytotoxicities of Fe(C(5)H(4)CO(2)CH(2)CH(2)OH)(2), Fe(C(5)H(4)CO(2)CH(2)CH=CH(2))(2), Fe(C(5)H(4)CO(2)CH(3))(2), Fe(CpCOOCH(3))(CpCOOCH(2)CH(3)), and Fe(CpCOOCH(2)CH(3))(2) in colon cancer HT-29 and breast cancer MCF-7 cell lines were measured by the MTT biological viability assay and compared to ferrocene and ferrocenium. Fe(C(5)H(4)CO(2)CH(2)CH=CH(2))(2) showed the best IC(50) values, 180(10) muM for HT-29 and 190(30) muM for MCF-7 cell lines, with cytotoxicities similar to ferrocenium. The cytotoxic data suggest that as we increase the lipophilic character of the functionalized ferrocene, the cytotoxicity improves approaching to the cytotoxic activity of ferrocenium.

Synthesis, biological evaluation, and structure activity relationship (SAR) study of pyrrolidine amide derivatives as N-acylethanolamine acid amidase (NAAA) inhibitors.

Project description:N-Acylethanolamine acid amidase (NAAA) is one of the key enzymes involved in the degradation of fatty acid ethanolamides (FAEs), especially for palmitoylethanolamide (PEA). Pharmacological blockage of NAAA restores PEA levels, providing therapeutic benefits in the management of inflammation and pain. In the current work, we showed the structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies for pyrrolidine amide derivatives as NAAA inhibitors. A series of aromatic replacements or substituents for the terminal phenyl group of pyrrolidine amides were examined. SAR data showed that small lipophilic 3-phenyl substituents were preferable for optimal potency. The conformationally flexible linkers increased the inhibitory potency of pyrrolidine amide derivatives but reduced their selectivity toward fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH). The conformationally restricted linkers did not enhance the inhibitor potency toward NAAA but improved the selectivity over FAAH. Several low micromolar potent NAAA inhibitors were developed, including 4g bearing a rigid 4-phenylcinnamoyl group. Dialysis and kinetic analysis suggested that 4g inhibited NAAA via a competitive and reversible mechanism. Furthermore, 4g showed high anti-inflammatory activities in lipopolysaccharide (LPS) induced acute lung injury (ALI) model, and this effect was blocked by pre-treatment with the PPAR-α antagonist MK886. We anticipate that 4g (E93) will enable a new agent to treat inflammation and related diseases.
