Syntheses and biological evaluation of new cephalosporin-oxazolidinone conjugates.

ABSTRACT: Two cephalosporin-oxazolidinone conjugates were synthesized by incorporation of a carbamate linker at the 3'-position of the cephalosporin. These compounds show stability in aqueous media until specifically activated by a ?-lactamase, and retain antibacterial activities profiles reflecting both the individual cephalosporin and oxazolidinone components.

Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of Novel Dehydroabietic Acid-Oxazolidinone Hybrids for Antitumor Properties.

Project description:Novel representatives of the important group of biologically-active, dehydroabietic acid-bearing oxazolidinone moiety were synthesized to explore more efficacious and less toxic antitumor agents. Structures of all the newly target molecules were confirmed by IR, ¹H-NMR, 13C-NMR, and HR-MS. The inhibitory activities of these compounds against different human cancer cell lines (MGC-803, CNE-2, SK-OV-3, NCI-H460) and human normal liver cell line LO2 were evaluated and compared with the commercial anticancer drug cisplatin, using standard MTT (methyl thiazolytetrazolium) assay in vitro. The pharmacological screening results revealed that most of the hybrids showed significantly improved antiproliferative activities over dehydroabietic acid and that some displayed better inhibitory activities compared to cisplatin. In particular, compound 4j exhibited promising cytotoxicity with IC50 values ranging from 3.82 to 17.76 µM against all the test cell lines and displayed very weak cytotoxicity (IC50 > 100 µM) on normal cells, showing good selectivity between normal and malignant cells. Furthermore, the action mechanism of the representative compound 4j was preliminarily investigated by Annexin-V/PI dual staining, Hoechst 33258 staining, which indicated that the compound can induce cell apoptosis in MGC-803 cells in a dose-dependent manner and arrest the cell cycle in G1 phase. Therefore, 4j may be further exploited as a novel pharmacophore model for the development of anticancer agents.

Syntheses and biological evaluation of ring-C modified colchicine analogs.

Project description:Ring-C modified alkaloids were synthesized from colchicine using iminonitroso Diels-Alder reactions in a highly regio- and stereoselective fashion. Several analogs exhibited cytotoxic activity similar to that of colchicine itself against PC-3 and MCF-7 cancer cell lines, by serving as prodrugs of colchicine through retro Diels-Alder reactions under the assayed conditions. In vitro microtubule polymerization assays indicated that these modifications affected their interaction with tubulin.

Oxazolidinone Antibiotics: Chemical, Biological and Analytical Aspects.

Project description:This review covers the main aspects concerning the chemistry, the biological activity and the analytical determination of oxazolidinones, the only new class of synthetic antibiotics advanced in clinical use over the past 50 years. They are characterized by a chemical structure including the oxazolidone ring with the S configuration of substituent at C5, the acylaminomethyl group linked to C5 and the N-aryl substituent. The synthesis of oxazolidinones has gained increasing interest due to their unique mechanism of action that assures high antibiotic efficiency and low susceptibility to resistance mechanisms. Here, the main features of oxazolidinone antibiotics licensed or under development, such as Linezolid, Sutezolid, Eperezolid, Radezolid, Contezolid, Posizolid, Tedizolid, Delpazolid and TBI-223, are discussed. As they are protein synthesis inhibitors active against a wide spectrum of multidrug-resistant Gram-positive bacteria, their biological activity is carefully analyzed, together with the drug delivery systems recently developed to overcome the poor oxazolidinone water solubility. Finally, the most employed analytical techniques for oxazolidinone determination in different matrices, such as biological fluids, tissues, drugs and natural waters, are reviewed. Most are based on HPLC (High Performance Liquid Chromatography) coupled with UV-Vis or mass spectrometer detectors, but, to a lesser extent are also based on spectrofluorimetry or voltammetry.

Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of 3-(Pyridine-3-yl)-2-Oxazolidinone Derivatives as Antibacterial Agents.

Project description:In this research, a series of 3-(pyridine-3-yl)-2-oxazolidinone derivatives was designed, synthesized, and evaluated for in vitro antibacterial activity, which included bacteriostatic, morphological, kinetic studies, and molecular docking. The results demonstrated that compounds 21b, 21d, 21e and 21f exhibited strong antibacterial activity similar to that of linezolid toward five Gram-positive bacteria. After observing the effect of the drug on the morphology and growth dynamics of the bacteria, the possible modes of action were predicted by molecular docking. Furthermore, the antibiofilm activity and the potential drug resistance assay was proceeded. These compounds exhibited universal antibiofilm activity and compound 21d showed significant concentration-dependent inhibition of biofilm formation. Compound 21d also showed a stable effect on S. pneumoniae (ATCC 49619) with less drug resistance growth for 15 days, which is much longer than that of linezolid. Overall, these results can be used to guide further exploration of novel antimicrobial agents.

Cobaltacarborane-phthalocyanine conjugates: Syntheses and photophysical properties.

Project description:Syntheses of two new cobaltacarborane-phthalocyanine conjugates, one anionic (Pc 6) and one zwitterionic (Pc 7), were accomplished via cyclotetramerization of the corresponding cobaltacarborane-substituted phthalonitriles (4 or 5) with excess phthalonitrile in quinoline. X-ray structures of two phthalonitrile precursors (2 and 3) were obtained and are discussed, and the absorption and emission properties of the two cobaltacarborane-phthalocyanine conjugates in several solvents were investigated. The anionic conjugate 6 exists mainly as a monomer in polar organic solvents and has fluorescence quantum yields in the region 0.2-0.3. The zwitterionic conjugate 7 aggregates in solution and displays lower quantum yields ~0.1 in organic solvents.

Biological In Vitro Evaluation of PIL Graft Conjugates: Cytotoxicity Characteristics.

Project description:In vitro cytotoxicity of polymer-carriers, which in the side chains contain the cholinum ionic liquid units with chloride (Cl) or pharmaceutical anions dedicated for antituberculosis therapy, i.e., p-aminosalicylate (PAS) and clavulanate (CLV), was investigated. The carriers and drug conjugates were examined, in the concentration range of 3.125-100 μg/mL, against human bronchial epithelial cells (BEAS-2B) and adenocarcinomic human alveolar basal epithelial cells (A549) as an experimental model cancer cell line possibly coexisting in tuberculosis. The cytotoxicity was evaluated by MTT test and confluency index, as well as by the cytometric analyses, including Annexin-V FITC apoptosis assay. The polymer systems showed supporting activity towards the normal cells and no tumor progress, especially at the highest concentration (100 μg/mL). The analysis of cell death did not show meaningful changes in the case of the BEAS-2B, whereas in the A549 cell line, the cytostatic activity was observed, especially for the drug-free carriers, causing death in up to 80% of cells. This can be regulated by the polymer structure, including the content of cationic units, side-chain length and density, as well as the type and content of pharmaceutical anions. The results of MTT tests, confluency, as well as cytometric analyses, distinguished the polymer systems with Cl/PAS/CLV containing 26% of grafting degree and 43% of ionic units or 46% of grafting degree and 18% of ionic units as the optimal systems.

Design, synthesis, and biological evaluation of theranostic vitamin-linker-taxoid conjugates.

Project description:Novel tumor-targeting theranostic conjugates 1 and 2, bearing either a fluorine-labeled prosthetic as a potential (18)F-PET radiotracer (1) or a fluorescence probe (2) for internalization studies in vitro, were designed and synthesized. We confirmed efficient internalization of 2 in biotin-receptor positive (BR+) cancer cells via receptor-mediated endocytosis (RME) based on flow cytometry and confocal fluorescence microscopy (CFM) analyses, which exhibited very high specificity to BR+ cancer cells. The potency and cancer-cell selectivity of 1 were evaluated against MX-1, L1210FR and ID8 cancer cells (BR+) as well as L1210 cells and WI38 normal human lung fibroblast cells (biotin-receptor negative: BR-). In particular, we designed and performed an assay in the presence of glutathione ethyl ester (GSH-OEt) wherein only 1 molecules internalized into cells via RME in the first 24 h period exert cytotoxic effect. The observed selectivity of 1 was remarkable, with 2 orders of magnitude difference in IC50 values between BR+ cancer cells and WI38 cells, demonstrating a salient feature of this tumor-targeted drug delivery system.

Synthesis and biological evaluation of the progenitor of a new class of cephalosporin analogues, with a particular focus on structure-based computational analysis.

Project description:We present the synthesis and biological evaluation of the prototype of a new class of cephalosporins, containing an additional isolated beta lactam ring with two phenyl substituents. This new compound is effective against Gram positive microorganisms, with a potency similar to that of ceftriaxone, a cephalosporin widely used in clinics and taken as a reference, and with no cytotoxicity against two different human cell lines, even at a concentration much higher than the minimal inhibitory concentration tested. Additionally, a deep computational analysis has been conducted with the aim of understanding the contribution of its moieties to the binding energy towards several penicillin-binding proteins from both Gram positive and Gram negative bacteria. All these results will help us developing derivatives of this compound with improved chemical and biological properties, such as a broader spectrum of action and/or an increased affinity towards their molecular targets.
