2D and 3D-QSAR study on 4-anilinoquinozaline derivatives as potent apoptosis inducer and efficacious anticancer agent.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Apoptosis is known as programmed cell death that plays an important role in tumor biology.

Methods

In this study, apoptosis-inducing activity is predicted by using a QSAR modeling approach for a series of 4-anilinoquinozaline derivatives. 2D-QSAR model for the prediction of apoptosis-inducing activity was obtained by applying multiple linear regression giving r2 = 0.8225 and q2 = 0.7626, principal component regression giving r2 = 0.7539 and q2 = 0.6669 and partial least squares giving r2 = 0.8237 and q2 = 0.6224.

Results

QSAR study revealed that alignment-independent descriptors and distance-based topology index are the most important descriptors in predicting apoptosis-inducing activity. 3D-QSAR study was performed using k-nearest neighbor molecular field analysis (kNN-MFA) approach for both electrostatic and steric fields. Three different kNN-MFA 3D-QSAR methods (SW-FB, SA, and GA) were used for the development of models and tested successfully for internal (q2 > 0.62) and external (predictive r2 > 0.52) validation criteria. Thus, 3D-QSAR models showed that electrostatic effects dominantly determine the binding affinities.

Conclusions

The QSAR models developed in this study would be useful for the development of new apoptosis inducer as anticancer agents.

Project description:The diverse pharmacological role of dihydropyrimidinone scaffold has made it to be an interesting drug target. Because of the high incidence and mortality rate of breast cancer, there is a dire need of discovering new pharmacotherapeutic agents in managing this disease. A series of twenty-two derivatives of 6-(chloromethyl)-4-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-2-oxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimidine-5-carboxylate (3a-3k) and ethyl 6-(chloromethyl)-4-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-2-oxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimidine-5-carboxylate (4a-4k) synthesized in a previous study were evaluated for their anticancer potential against breast cancer cell line. Molecular docking studies were performed to analyze the binding mode and interaction pattern of these compounds against nine breast cancer target proteins. The in vitro cell proliferation assay was performed against the breast cancer cell line MCF-7. The structure activity relationship of these compounds was further studied using QSARINS. Among nine proteins, the docking analysis revealed efficient binding of compounds 4f, 4e, 3e, 4g, and 4h against all target proteins. The in vitro cytotoxic assay revealed significant anticancer activity of compound 4f having IC50 of 2.15 μM. The compounds 4e, 3e, 4g, and 4h also showed anticancer activities with IC50 of 2.401, 2.41, 2.47 and 2.33 μM, respectively. The standard tamoxifen showed IC50 1.88 μM. The 2D qualitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) analysis was also carried out to identify potential breast cancer targets through QSARINS. The final QSAR equation revealed good predictivity and statistical validation R 2 and Q 2 values for the model obtained from QSARINS was 0.98 and 0.97, respectively. The active compounds showed very good anticancer activities, and the binding analysis has revealed stable hydrogen bonding of these compounds with the target proteins. Moreover, the QSAR analysis has predicted useful information on the structural requirement of these compounds as anticancer agents with the importance of topological and autocorrelated descriptors in effecting the cancer activities.
