Cytotoxic Activity against A549 Human Lung Cancer Cells and ADMET Analysis of New Pyrazole Derivatives.

ABSTRACT: Two new pyrazole derivatives, namely compound 1 and compound 2, have been synthesized, and their biological activity has been evaluated. Monocrystals of the obtained compounds were thoroughly investigated using single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis, FTIR spectroscopy, and NMR spectroscopy. The results gathered from all three techniques are in good agreement, provide complete information about the structures of 1 and 2, and confirm their high purity. Thermal properties were studied using thermogravimetric analysis; both 1 and 2 are stable at room temperature. In order to better characterize 1 and 2, some physicochemical and biological properties have been evaluated using ADMET analysis. The cytotoxic activity of both compounds was determined using the MTT assay on the A549 cell line in comparison with etoposide. It was determined that compound 2 was effective in the inhibition of human lung adenocarcinoma cell growth and may be a promising compound for the treatment of lung cancer.

Project description:BackgroundLung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide. In this study, we used a bioactivity-guided isolation technique to identify constituents of Korean Red Ginseng (KRG) with antiproliferative activity against human lung adenocarcinoma cells.MethodsBioactivity-guided fractionation and preparative/semipreparative HPLC purification were used with LC/MS analysis to separate the bioactive constituents. Cell viability and apoptosis in human lung cancer cell lines (A549, H1264, H1299, and Calu-6) after treatment with KRG extract fractions and constituents thereof were assessed using the water-soluble tetrazolium salt (WST-1) assay and terminal deoxyribonucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL) staining, respectively. Caspase activation was assessed by detecting its surrogate marker, cleaved poly adenosine diphosphate (ADP-ribose) polymerase, using an immunoblot assay. The expression and subcellular localization of apoptosis-inducing factor were assessed using immunoblotting and immunofluorescence, respectively.Results and conclusionBioactivity-guided fractionation of the KRG extract revealed that its ethyl acetate-soluble fraction exerts significant cytotoxic activity against all human lung cancer cell lines tested by inducing apoptosis. Chemical investigation of the ethyl acetatesoluble fraction led to the isolation of six ginsenosides, including ginsenoside Rb1 (1), ginsenoside Rb2 (2), ginsenoside Rc (3), ginsenoside Rd (4), ginsenoside Rg1 (5), and ginsenoside Rg3 (6). Among the isolated ginsenosides, ginsenoside Rg3 exhibited the most cytotoxic activity against all human lung cancer cell lines examined, with IC50 values ranging from 161.1 μM to 264.6 μM. The cytotoxicity of ginsenoside Rg3 was found to be mediated by induction of apoptosis in a caspase-independent manner. These findings provide experimental evidence for a novel biological activity of ginsenoside Rg3 against human lung cancer cells.
