Design, synthesis and in vitro cytotoxicity studies of novel ?-carbolinium bromides.


ABSTRACT: A series of novel ?-carbolinium bromides has been synthesized from easily accessible ?-carbolines and 1-aryl-2-bromoethanones. The newly synthesized compounds were evaluated for their in vitro anticancer activity. Among the synthesized derivatives, compounds 16l, 16o and 16s exhibited potent anticancer activity with IC50 values of <10?M against tested cancer cell lines. The most potent analogue 16l was broadly active against all the tested cancer cell lines (IC50=3.16-7.93?M). In order to test the mechanism of cell death, we exposed castration resistant prostate cancer cell line (C4-2) to compounds 16l and 16s, which resulted in increased levels of cleaved PARP1 and AO/EB staining, indicating that ?-carbolinium salts induce apoptosis in these cells. Additionally, the most potent ?-carbolines 16l and 16s were found to inhibit tubulin polymerization.
