Design, synthesis, and evaluation of estradiol-linked genotoxicants as anti-cancer agents.

ABSTRACT: A series of bifunctional compounds was prepared consisting of 17beta estradiol linked to a DNA damaging N,N-bis-(2-chloroethyl)aniline. The objective of our studies was to determine the characteristics of the linker that permitted both reaction with DNA and binding of the resultant covalent adducts to the estrogen receptor. Linker characteristics were pivotal determinants underlying the ability of the compounds to kill selectively breast cancer cells that express the estrogen receptor.

Design, synthesis and biological evaluation of new carbazole derivatives as anti-cancer and anti-migratory agents.

Project description:Based on the efficacy of EHop-016 as an inhibitor of migration and Rac1 activation, a new series of carbazole derivatives has been synthesized. Cytotoxic and anti-migratory effects of these compounds were evaluated in MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cell lines. Preliminary investigations of their anticancer activity demonstrated that several compounds have moderate antiproliferative effects on cancer cell lines with GI50 values in the range of 13-50 µM. Furthermore, compounds 3b and 11b inhibit migration activity of metastatic cell line MDA-MB-231 by 32% and 34%, respectively. Compound 11b was shown to inhibit activation of the Rho GTPase Rac1 by 55% at 250 nM in both MDA-MB-231 and MDA-MB-435 cell lines. Compared with the IC50 of Rac1 inhibition by lead compound EHop-016 of 1.1 µM, compound 11b demonstrates 4X improved in vitro efficacy.

Design, synthesis, and evaluation of novel heteroaromatic analogs of curcumin as anti-cancer agents.

Project description:To improve the potential of curcumin to treat advanced hormone-refractory prostate cancer, three series (A-C) of heteroaromatic analogs (thirty two compounds) with different monoketone linkers have been synthesized and evaluated for cytotoxicity against two human androgen-independent prostate cancer cell lines (PC-3 and DU-145). Among them, thirty analogs are more potent than curcumin against PC-3 cells, and twenty one analogs are more cytotoxic towards DU-145 cells relative to curcumin. The most potent compounds (44, 45, 51, and 52) also showed impressive cytotoxicity against three other metastatic cancer cell lines (MDA-MB-231, HeLa, and A549), with IC50 values ranging from 50 nM to 390 nM. All four most potent analogs exhibited no apparent cytotoxicity towards the MCF-10A normal mammary epithelial cells. Taken together, selective enhancement of cell death in prostate cancer cell lines and other aggressive cancer cell lines suggests that nitrogen-containing heteroaromatic rings are promising bioisosteres of the substituted phenyl ring in curcumin.

Design, Synthesis and Preliminary Biological Evaluation of Benzylsulfone Coumarin Derivatives as Anti-Cancer Agents.

Project description:In this work, a series of benzylsulfone coumarin derivatives 5a-5o were synthesized and characterized. Kinase inhibitory activity assay indicated that most of the compounds showed considerable activity against PI3K. Anti-tumor activity studies of the active compounds were also carried out in vitro on the Hela, HepG2, H1299, HCT-116, and MCF-7 tumor cell lines by MTS assay. The structure-activity relationships (SARs) of these compounds were analyzed in detail. Compound 5h exhibited the most potent activities against the mentioned cell lines with IC50 values ranging from 18.12 to 32.60 μM, followed by 5m with IC50 values of 29.30-42.14 μM. Furthermore, 5h and 5m clearly retarded the migration of Hela cells in vitro. Next, an in silico molecular docking study was conducted to evaluate the binding models of 5h and 5m towards PI3Kα and PI3Kβ. Collectively, the above findings suggested that compounds 5h and 5m might be promising PI3K inhibitors deserving further investigation for cancer treatment.

Design, Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of Novel 5H-Chromenopyridines as Potential Anti-Cancer Agents.

Project description:A novel series of 5H-chromenopyridines was identified as anticancer agents in our continuing effort to discover and develop new small molecule anti-proliferative agents. Based on our initial lead SP-6-27 compound, we designed and synthesized novel tricyclic 5H-thiochromenopyridine and 5H-chromenopyridine analogs to evaluate the impact of an additional ring, as well as conformational flexibility on cytotoxic activity against human melanoma and glioma cell lines. All of the 5H-thiochromenopyridines have been achieved in good yields (89%-93%) using a single-step, three-component cyclization without the need for purification. The 5H-chromenopyridine analog of the potent 5H-thiochromenopyride was obtained in a good yield upon purification. All newly-prepared 5H-thiochromenopyridines showed good to moderate cytotoxicity against three melanoma and two glioma cell lines (3-15 μM). However, the 5H-chromenopyridine analogue that we prepared in our laboratory lost cytotoxic activity. The moderate cytotoxic activity of 5H-thiochromenopyridines shows the promise of developing chromenopyridines as potential anticancer agents.

Design, synthesis, and evaluation of novel coumarin-dithiocarbamate derivatives (IDs) as anti-colorectal cancer agents.

Project description:Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a common malignant tumour of human digestive tract. The high mortality rate of CRC is closely related to the limitations of existing treatments. Thus, there is an urgent need to search for new anti-CRC agents. In this work, twenty novel coumarin-dithiocarbamate derivatives (IDs) were designed, synthesized and evaluated in vitro. The results suggest that the most active compound ID-11 effectively inhibited the proliferation of CRC cell lines while shown little impact on normal colon epithelial cells. Mechanism studies revealed that ID-11 displayed bromodomain-containing protein 4 inhibitory activity, and induced G2/M phase arrest, apoptosis as well as decreased the expression levels of the key genes such as c-Myc and Bcl-2 in CRC cell lines. Moreover, the ADMET properties prediction results shown that ID-11 possess well metabolic characteristics without obvious toxicities. Our data demonstrated that compound ID-11 may be a promising anti-CRC agent and deserved for further development.

Design, synthesis and biological evaluation of combretastatin A-4 sulfamate derivatives as potential anti-cancer agents.

Project description:A series of combretastatin A-4 (CA-4) sulfamate derivatives were synthesized and their structure-activity relationship on tubulin, arylsulfatase and tumor cell antiproliferation inhibition was studied. Among them, compound 16a showed excellent potency as well as CA-4 under the same conditions against six tumor cells including HTC-116, HeLa, HepG2, MGC803, MKN45 and MCF-7 cells, respectively. Molecular docking revealed that several important hydrogen bond interactions were formed between the sulfamate group of 16a and the colchicine binding site of tubulin and steroid sulfatase respectively. Although compound 16a was less active than CA-4 in regard to its in vitro activity as an inhibitor of tubulin polymerization, it was effective as an inhibitor of arylsulfatase. This novel combretastatin A-4 sulfamate derivative has the potential to be developed as a dual inhibitor of tubulin polymerization and arylsulfatase for cancer therapy.

Design, synthesis and biological evaluation of 2-quinolyl-1,3-tropolone derivatives as new anti-cancer agents.

Project description:Tropolones are promising organic compounds that can have important biologic effects. We developed a series of new 2-quinolyl-1,3-tropolones derivatives that were prepared by the acid-catalyzed reaction of 4,7-dichloro-2-methylquinolines with 1,2-benzoquinones. 2-Quinolyl-1,3-tropolones have been synthesized and tested for their anti-proliferative activity against several human cancer cell lines. Two compounds (3d and mixture B of 3i-k) showed excellent activity against six cancer cell lines of different tissue of origin. The promising compounds 3d and mixture B of 3i-k also demonstrated induction of apoptotic cell death of ovarian cancer (OVCAR-3, OVCAR-8) and colon cancer (HCT 116) cell lines and affected ERK signaling. In summary, 2-quinolyl-1,3-tropolones are promising compounds for development of effective anticancer agents.

Project description:AimThe aim of our research work is the synthesis of tetrahydroisoquinoline derivatives as anti-Angiogenesis and anti-cancer agents.BackgroundCancer is the second leading cause of deaths in the United States. The current recovery rate from the advanced treatment for the cancer is excessively low. Therefore, the identification of novel, potent, and less toxic anticancer agents remains a top priority.ObjectiveTo evaluate anti-angiogenesis and anticancer activities of THIQs on different colorectal cancer cell lines (CRC) viz., Colo320, DLD-1, HCT116, SNU-C1, SW480, and GSK3b in pre-treated viability HCT116. and to carry out molecular docking studies of THIQs.MethodsTwenty synthesized THIQs were screened in the Eli Lilly's Open Innovation Drug Discovery Program and selected twelve compounds for in vitro primary screening in the KRas (Kirsten rat sarcoma)-Wnt SL (Synthetic Lethal) in the basal viability of different colon cancer cell lines. Docking studies of the active THIQs were also performed in our laboratory, targeting the active sites of KRas and VEGF receptors.ResultsCompound GM-3-18 was found to possess significant activities for KRas inhibition, with IC50 values in the range of 0.9 μM to 10.7 μM, for all colon cancer cell lines. Compound GM-3-121 showed potent anti-angiogenesis activity with IC50 = 1.72 μM. Molecular docking studies showed that the carbonyl oxygen atoms of GM-3-18 and GM-3-121 showed hydrogen bonding interactions with the hydrogen of - OH groups of THR 74 (A).ConclusionThe results indicated that all the compounds showed moderate to high activity for KRas inhibition. The THIQs bearing the chloro group at the 4-position of the phenyl ring (GM-3-18) exhibited significant KRas inhibition against all colon cancer cell lines.

Design, synthesis and biological evaluation of a series of new resveratrol analogues as potential anti-cancer agents.

Project description:A series of novel resveratrol derivatives were designed, synthesized and evaluated as anti-cancer agents. Most of the compounds showed significant anti-proliferative activities against three human cancer cell lines (HepG2, A549 and Hela). Among these compounds, compound r displayed the most potent inhibitory activity and showed low cytotoxic activity. Cell apoptosis and cell cycle assays demonstrated that compound r significantly induced apoptosis (p < 0.001) and arrested cell cycle at S phase. Immunofluorescence microscopy analysis showed compound r disrupted the tubulin network. Docking simulations supported the pharmacological results of compound r. It is believed that this work would be very useful for designing a new series of tubulin inhibitors.
