Triazoloquinoxalines-based DNA intercalators-Topo II inhibitors: design, synthesis, docking, ADMET and anti-proliferative evaluations.

ABSTRACT: Sixteen [1, 2, 4]triazolo[4,3-a]quinoxalines as DNA intercalators-Topo II inhibitors have been prepared and their anticancer actions evaluated towards three cancer cell lines. The new compounds affected on high percentage of MCF-7. Derivatives 7e, 7c and 7b exhibited the highest anticancer activities. Their activities were higher than that of doxorubicin. Molecular docking studies showed that the HBA present in the chromophore, the substituted distal phenyl moiety and the extended linkers enable our derivatives to act as DNA binders. Also, the pyrazoline moiety formed six H-bonds and improved affinities with DNA active site. Finally, 7e, 7c and 7b exhibited the highest DNA affinities and act as traditional intercalators of DNA. The most active derivatives 7e, 7c, 7b, 7g and 6e were subjected to evaluate their Topo II inhibition and DNA binding actions. Derivative 7e exhibited the highest binding affinity. It intercalates DNA at IC₅₀ = 29.06 µM. Moreover, compound 7e potently intercalates DNA at an IC₅₀ value of 31.24 µM. Finally, compound 7e demonstrated the most potent Topo II inhibitor at a value of 0.890 µM. Compound 7c exhibited an equipotent IC₅₀ value (0.940 µM) to that of doxorubicin. Furthermore, derivatives 7b, 7c, 7e and 7g displayed a high ADMET profile.

Project description:New pyridine, pyrazoloyridine, and furopyridine derivatives substituted with naphthyl and thienyl moieties were designed and synthesized starting from 6-(naphthalen-2-yl)-2-oxo-4-(thiophen-2-yl)-1,2-dihydropyridine-3-carbonitrile (1). The chloro, methoxy, cholroacetoxy, imidazolyl, azide, and arylamino derivatives were prepared to obtain the pyridine--C2 functionalized derivatives. The derived pyrazolpyridine-N-glycosides were synthesized via heterocyclization of the C2-thioxopyridine derivative followed by glycosylation using glucose and galactose. The furopyridine derivative 14 and the tricyclic pyrido[3',2':4,5]furo[3,2-d]pyrimidine 15 were prepared via heterocyclization of the ester derivative followed by a reaction with formamide. The newly synthesized compounds were evaluated for their ability to in vitro inhibit the CDK2 enzyme. In addition, the cytotoxicity of the compounds was tested against four different human cancer cell lines (HCT-116, MCF-7, HepG2, and A549). The CDK2/cyclin A2 enzyme inhibitory results revealed that pyridone 1, 2-chloro-6-(naphthalen-2-yl)-4-(thiophen-2-yl)nicotinonitrile (4), 6-(naphthalen-2-yl)-4-(thiophen-2-yl)-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridin-3-amine (8), S-(3-cyano-6-(naphthaen-2-yl)-4-(thiophen-2-yl)pyridin-2-yl) 2-chloroethanethioate (11), and ethyl 3-amino-6-(naphthalen-2-yl)-4-(thiophen-2-yl)furo[2,3-b]pyridine-2-carboxylate (14) are among the most active inhibitors with IC50 values of 0.57, 0.24, 0.65, 0.50, and 0.93 µM, respectively, compared to roscovitine (IC50 0.394 μM). Most compounds showed significant inhibition on different human cancer cell lines (HCT-116, MCF-7, HepG2, and A549) with IC50 ranges of 31.3-49.0, 19.3-55.5, 22.7-44.8, and 36.8-70.7 μM, respectively compared to doxorubicin (IC50 40.0, 64.8, 24.7 and 58.1 µM, respectively). Furthermore, a molecular docking study suggests that most of the target compounds have a similar binding mode as a reference compound in the active site of the CDK2 enzyme. The structural requirements controlling the CDK2 inhibitory activity were determined through the generation of a statistically significant 2D-QSAR model.
