RESUMO

In addition to the membrane-bound form, CD154 also exists as a soluble molecule originating from an intracellular and membrane cleavage. We have previously shown that CD154 cleavage from T cell surface is mediated by CD40 and involves the action of ADAM10/ADAM17 enzymes. In the aim of defining the importance of CD154 maintained on cell surface, we generated a CD154 mutated at the cleavage site. Our data show that the double mutation of E112 and M113 residues of CD154 abolishes its spontaneous release and the CD40-mediated cleavage from cell surface but does not affect its binding to CD40. We also demonstrated that both the release of CD154 from the intracellular milieu and its CD40-mediated cleavage from cell surface are highly dependent on ADAM10/ADAM17 enzymes. The CD154-EM mutant was shown capable of inducing a more prominent apoptotic response in susceptible B cell lines than the wild-type (WT) form of the molecule. In addition, human B cells cultured in the presence of the CD154-EM mutant exhibited upregulated proliferative responses compared with the CD154-WT. The CD154-EM mutant was also shown to trigger differentiation of human B cells, reflected by an increased Ig production, more significantly than CD154-WT. Thus, our data strongly suggest that cleavage-resistant CD154 is a more prominent stimulant than the cleavable form of the molecule. Therefore, a maintained expression of CD154 on cell membrane and a disturbed cleavage of the molecule could be a mechanism by which CD154 is involved in some pathological conditions and should be revisited.

RESUMO

New tilomisole-based benzimidazothiazole derivatives were designed and synthesized in this work. Their anti-inflammatory activity was assessed through the in vivo carrageenan rat paw edema model, and the in vitro COX inhibition assay. Compounds 13, 20, 30, 40, 43, and 46 demonstrated values of inhibition of induced edema in the in vivo assay comparable to celecoxib. All the synthesized compounds expressed their activity on COX-2 enzyme more than COX-1, proving their advantageous selectivity. In addition, compounds 13, 16, 20, 25, and 46 displayed lower IC50 values than celecoxib as a reference drug against COX-2 enzyme; having values of 0.09, 13.87, 32.28, 33.01, and 5.18 nM respectively vs 40.00 nM for celecoxib. Particularly, the most active compound (13) with its extreme potency (400 folds more potent than celecoxib) exhibited a notable high selectivity index (SI = 159.5). In silico studies, including ADMET prediction, compliance to Lipinski's rule of five, and molecular docking into the active site of both COX isozymes were conducted for the synthesized compounds. The results suggested that these compounds are good candidates for orally active drugs, and docking revealed higher number of interactions with COX-2 for 13 as the most active compound compared with COX-1 reflecting its advantageous selectivity and explaining its extreme potency.

RESUMO

In the present study, new series of thiazolopyrimidine derivatives was synthesized as purine analogs. The structures of the products were confirmed through spectroscopic techniques such as NMR and mass spectrometry. In addition, the synthesized compounds were evaluated as antitumor active agent through NCI screening protocol against 60 different cell lines under 9 different panels. Furthermore, DNA binding activity of the compounds was also evaluated. The results revealed that compound 35 proved to be the most active member of the tested series and it is promoted to the 5-dose testing where it gives GI50, TGI and LC50 values of 1.07, 6.61, 34.7 µM respectively. Furthermore, it also proved to have a good DNA binding activity with value that is comparable with that produced by doxorubicin which was used as positive standard. In addition, compound 27 was proved to be the most active DNA binding agent with binding affinity 28.38 ± 1.1. The pharmacokinetic properties were also calculated. Molecular docking studies suggested binding mode of compounds 27 and 35 to DNA minor groove via hydrogen bonding interaction. The anticancer activity of compounds 27 and 35 may be attributed to DNA binding.

RESUMO

New benzothiazole-based derivatives were synthesized in the present work with the aim of evaluating their antitumor activity. They were in vitro tested against hepatocellular carcinoma (HepG2), colorectal carcinoma (HCT-116), mammary gland cancer (MCF-7), prostate cancer (PC-3), and epithelioid carcinoma (HeLa). The results of the in vitro antitumor evaluation revealed that the most active compounds were 39, 40, 51, 56, and 61 exhibiting IC50 values comparable to the reference drug lapatinib. The most active compounds were further subjected to EGFR inhibitory activity assay to rationalize their potency mode. Notably, the most active antitumor compounds 39 and 40 represented the most potent inhibitors to EGFR with IC50 values of 24.58 and 30.42 nM respectively in comparison with 17.38 nM for lapatinib as a standard drug. Molecular modeling studies were also conducted for the synthesized compounds, including docking into EGFR active site and surface mapping. Results proved the superior binding of the hydrazone derivatives 39 and 40 with EGFR suggesting them as good candidates for targeted antitumor therapy through EGFR kinase inhibition.

RESUMO

A series of polycyclic skeleton of truxene and triazatruxene analogs has been synthesized and evaluated for antitumor and DNA binding activities. The synthesized structures were confirmed by different spectroscopic techniques such as IR, 1HNMR, 13CNMR, and mass spectroscopy. The antitumor screening was performed adopting the NCI protocol against 60 different cell lines. Compounds 2 and 8 proved to be the most active ones among the other target compounds. In a trial to investigate the mechanism of action of the target compounds, DNA binding activity was also investigated. Compounds 3f, 4-8 exhibited good binding activity explaining their mechanism. In addition, molecular modeling studies were also performed for more clearance of the data obtained from the biological screening.

RESUMO

In the current medical era, spirooxindole motif stands out as a privileged heterospirocyclic scaffold that represents the core for a wide range of bioactive naturally isolated products (such as Strychnofoline and spirotryprostatins A and B) and synthetic compounds. Interestingly, no much attention has been paid to develop spirooxindole derivatives with dual antioxidant and anticancer activities. In this context, a series of spirooxindoles 6a-p was examined for their anticancer effect towards HepG2 hepatocellular carcinoma and PC-3 prostate cancer cell lines. Spirooxindole 6a was found to be an efficient anti-proliferative agent towards both HepG2 and PC-3 cells (IC50 = 6.9 and 11.8 µM, respectively). Afterwards, spirooxindole 6a was assessed for its apoptosis induction potential in HepG2 cells, where its pro-apoptotic impact was approved via the significant elevation in the Bax/Bcl-2 ratio and the expression levels of caspase-3.

RESUMO

Diverse indoles and bis-indoles extracted from marine sources have been identified as promising anticancer leads. Herein, we designed and synthesized novel bis-indole series 7a-f and 9a-h as Topsentin and Nortopsentin analogs. Our design is based on replacing the heterocyclic spacer in the natural leads by a more flexible hydrazide linker while sparing the two peripheral indole rings. All the synthesized bis-indoles were examined for their antiproliferative action against human breast cancer (MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231) cell lines. The most potent congeners 7e and 9a against MCF-7 cells (IC50 = 0.44 ± 0.01 and 1.28 ± 0.04 µM, respectively) induced apoptosis in MCF-7 cells (23.7-, and 16.8-fold increase in the total apoptosis percentage) as evident by the externalization of plasma membrane phosphatidylserine detected by Annexin V-FITC/PI assay. This evidence was supported by the Bax/Bcl-2 ratio augmentation (18.65- and 11.1-fold compared to control) with a concomitant increase in the level of caspase-3 (11.7- and 9.5-fold) and p53 (15.4- and 11.75-fold). Both compounds arrested the cell cycle mainly in the G2/M phase. Furthermore, 7e and 9a displayed good selectivity toward tumor cells (S.I. = 38.7 and 18.3), upon testing of their cytotoxicity toward non-tumorigenic breast MCF-10A cells. Finally, compounds 7a, 7b, 7d, 7e, and 9a were examined for their plausible CDK2 inhibitory action. The obtained results (% inhibition range: 16%-58%) unveiled incompetence of the target bis-indoles to inhibit CDK2 significantly. Collectively, these results suggested that herein reported bis-indoles are good lead compounds for further optimization and development as potential efficient anti-breast cancer drugs.

RESUMO

A new series of 6-substituted amido, azo or thioureido-quinazolin-4(3H)-one was synthesized and tested for their in-vitro antitumor activity. Compounds 21, 53 and 60 showed broad spectrum antitumor activity with average IC50 values of 6.7, 7.6 and 9.1 µM, respectively compared with methotrexate (1, IC50 19.26 µM). As an attempt to reveal the mechanism of the antitumor potency, cell cycle analysis and DHFR inhibition were performed. Compounds 59 and 61 induced their cytotoxicity in Hela (IC50 10.6 µM) and HCT-116 (IC50 15.5 µM) cell lines, respectively through Pre-G1 apoptosis, inhibiting cell growth at G2-M phase. Compounds 29, 33, 59 and 61 showed DHFR inhibitory potency at IC50 0.2, 0.2, 0.3 and 0.3 µM, respectively. The active DHFR inhibitors showed high affinity binding toward the amino acid residues Thr56, Ser59 and Ser118. The active compounds obeyed Lipinski's rule of five and could be used as template model for further optimization.

RESUMO

A new series of benzimidazothiazole derivatives has been synthesized. The structure of the products was confirmed by spectroscopic techniques such as IR, NMR and mass spectroscopy. The tested compounds were evaluated for their anti-inflammatory activity either in vitro through the COX enzyme inhibition assay, or in vivo through carrageenan paw edema technique. Results revealed that compound 25 and 29 represented the most active ones among the entire series with % inhibition 72.19, 72.07 for COX-1, and 87.46, 87.38 for COX-2, respectively. Interestingly, all synthesized compounds exhibited IC50 values less than both reference drugs celecoxib and naproxen, indicating their superior potency. For compound 25, it showed about 340 and 198 times more potent than celecoxib and naproxen respectively as COX-1 inhibitor (IC50 value 0.044 vs. 15.000 and 8.700 µM), and 10 and 115 times more potent than the same drugs as COX-2 inhibitor (IC50 value 4.52 vs. 40.00 and 520.00 nM). The antitumor activity of the products was also evaluated and the results obtained are consistent with those obtained by the anti-inflammatory screening where compounds 25 and 29 proved to be the most active ones among the other compounds with %GI ranging from 31.5 to 62.5% and they exhibited the lowest IC50 values as well. The ADMET analysis of the tested compounds was also performed in addition to the molecular modeling studies that included flexible alignment, surface and electrostatic maps in addition to the Lipinisk's rule of five.

RESUMO

New dithiocarbamate chalcone-based derivatives were synthesized, their structures were elucidated using different spectroscopic techniques. They were subjected to antimicrobial screening against selected Gram negative bacteria focusing on microbial resistance. Bacterial resistance was targeted via phosphoethanolamine transferase enzyme. Most of the synthesized compounds showed equal or higher activity to colistin standard. Compound 24 proved to be the most active candidate with MIC of 8 µg/ml against both Ps12 and K4 and MBC of 32 µg/ml against Ps12 and 16 µg/ml against K4 Molecular docking study showed that 20, 22, 24 and 25 had good binding affinity with active site residues via Thr280. DNA macromolecule was further targeted. Compounds 28 and 34 were recorded to have better DNA binding than doxurubucin with IC50 of 27.48 and 30.97 µg/ml respectively, suggesting that it could have a role in their higher antibacterial effect. Their docking into DNA has shown a clear intercalation matching with antibacterial data. Pharmacokinetics parameters of active compounds showed that they have better absorption through GIT.

RESUMO

In the presented work, we report the synthesis of a series of 4-benzylidene-2-phenyl-5(4H)-imidazolone-based benzenesulfonamides 7a-fvia the Erlenmeyer-Plöchl reaction. All the prepared imidazolones 7a-f were evaluated as inhibitors of human (h) carbonic anhydrases (CA, EC 4.2.1.1) cytosolic isoforms hCA I and II, as well as transmembrane tumor-associated isoforms hCA IX and XII. All the tested hCA isoforms were inhibited by the prepared imidazolones 7a-f in variable degrees with the following KIs ranges: 673.2-8169 nM for hCA I, 61.2-592.1 nM for hCA II, 23-155.4 nM for hCA XI, and 21.8-179.6 nM for hCA XII. In particular, imidazolones 7a, 7e, and 7f exhibited good selectivity towards the tumor-associated isoforms (CAs IX and XII) over the off-target cytosolic (CAs I and II) with selectivity index (SI) in the range of 6.2-19.4 and 3.3-8, respectively. Moreover, imidazolones 7a-f were screened for their anticancer activity in one dose (10-5 M) assay against a panel of 60 cancer cell lines according to US-NCI protocol. Furthermore, 7a, 7e and 7f were evaluated for their anti-proliferative activity against colorectal cancer HCT-116 and breast cancer MCF-7 cell lines. Furthermore, 7e and 7f were screened for cell cycle disturbance and apoptosis induction in HCT-116 cells. Finally, a molecular docking study was carried out to rationalize the obtained results.

RESUMO

A series of 5-imino-4-thioxo-2-imidazolidinone derivatives with different substituents at N1 and N3 was synthesized with high yield and excellent purity by the reaction of different N-arylcyanothioformamide derivatives with isocyanate derivatives. Treatment 5-imino-4-thioxo-2-imidazolidinone derivatives with acidic medium afforded 4-thioxoimidazolidin-2,5-dione derivatives. The structures of the obtained products were established based on spectroscopic IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, 1H, 1H-COSY, HSQC and elemental analyses. The anti-inflammatory activity of the synthesized compounds through the carrageenan-paw edema model as well as in vitro COX-1 and COX-2 inhibition assay were evaluated where most of the synthesized compounds showed significant anti-inflammatory activity. Mostly, all of our synthesized compounds have greater activity more than celecoxib toward both cyclooxygenase enzymes. All of the tested compounds (except one compound) exhibited IC50 valves for COX-2 ranged from 0.001 × 10-3 to 0.827 × 10-3 µM while the reference drug has IC50 40.0 × 10-3 µM. Furthermore, the analgesic activity of such compounds was also determined. Molecular modeling study was also conducted to rationalize the potential as anti-inflammatory agents of our synthesized compounds by predicting their binding modes, binding affinities and optimal orientation at the active site of the COX enzymes.

RESUMO

SLC-0111, an ureido substituted benzenesulfonamide, is a selective carbonic anhydrase (CA, EC 4.2.1.1) IX inhibitor that is currently in Phase I/II clinical trials for the treatment of advanced hypoxic tumors complicated with metastases. Herein we report the synthesis of two series of 3/4-(3-aryl-3-oxopropenyl) aminobenzenesulfonamides 5a-i and 6a-j as SLC-0111 enaminone congeners. The prepared enaminones were in vitro investigated as inhibitors of the metalloenzyme carbonic anhydrase (CA, EC 4.2.1.1) isoforms hCA I, II, IV and IX, using a stopped-flow CO2 hydrase assay. All these isoforms were inhibited by the enaminones reported here in variable degrees. The target tumor-associated isoform hCA IX was undeniably the most affected one (KIs: 0.21-7.1 nM), with 6- to 21-fold enhanced activity than SLC-0111 (KI = 45 nM). All the prepared enaminones displayed interesting selectivity towards hCA IX over hCA I (SI: 32 - >35714), hCA II (SI: 2 - 1689) and hCA IV (SI: 11 - >45454). Of particular interest, bioisosteric replacement of phenyl tail with the bulkier 2-naphthyl tail, sulfonamide 6h, achieved the higher II/IX selectivity herein reported with SI of 1689.

RESUMO

In connection with our research program on the development of novel anticancer candidates, herein we report the design and synthesis of novel series of 1-(2-methyl-6-arylpyridin-3-yl)-3-phenylureas 5a-l. The target pyridins were evaluated for their in vitro anticancer activity against two cancer cell lines: non-small cell lung cancer A549 cell line and colon cancer HCT-116 cell line. Compound 5l emerged as the most active congener towards both A549 and HCT-116 cell lines with IC50 values equal to 3.22 ± 0.2 and 2.71 ± 0.16 µM, respectively, which are comparable to those of Doxorubicin; 2.93 ± 0.28 and 3.10 ± 0.22, respectively. Furthermore, compound 5l stood out as the most potent pyridine derivative (mean % GI = 40), at US-NCI Developmental Therapeutic Program anticancer assay, with broad-spectrum antitumor activity against the most tested cancer cell lines from all subpanels. Compound 5l was able to provoke apoptosis in HCT-116 cells as evidenced by the decreased expression of the anti-apoptotic Bcl-2 protein, and the enhanced expression of the pro-apoptotic proteins levels; Bax, cytochrome C, p53, caspase-3 and caspase-9. Moreover, 5l disrupted the HCT-116 cell cycle via alteration of the Sub-G1 phase and arresting the G2-M stage. Also, 5l showed a significant increase in the percent of annexinV-FITC positive apoptotic cells from 1.99 to 15.76%.

RESUMO

In this work, we present the synthesis and biological evaluation of novel series of diamide-based benzenesulfonamides 5a-h as inhibitors of the metalloenzyme carbonic anhydrase (CA, EC 4.2.1.1) isoforms hCA I, II, IX and XII. The target tumor-associated isoforms hCA IX and XII were undeniably the most affected ones (KIs: 8.3-123.3 and 9.8-134.5 nM, respectively). Notably, diamides 5a and 5h stood out as a single-digit nanomolar hCA IX inhibitors (KIs = 8.8 and 8.3 nM). The SAR outcomes highlighted that bioisosteric replacement of the benzylidene moiety, compounds 5a-g, with the hetero 2-furylidene moiety, compound 5h, achieved the best IX/I and IX/II selectivity herein reported with SIs of 985 and 13.8, respectively. Molecular docking simulations of the prepared diamides within CA IX active site revealed the ability of 5h to establish an additional H-bond between the heterocyclic oxygen and HE/Gln67. Moreover, benzenesulfonamides 5a, 5b and 5h were evaluated for their antitumor activity against renal cancer UO-31 cell line. Compound 5h was the most potent derivative with about 1.5-fold more enhanced activity (IC50 = 4.89 ± 0.22 µM) than the reference drug Staurosporine (IC50 = 7.25 ± 0.43 µM). Moreover, 5a and 5h were able to induce apoptosis in UO-31 cells as evidenced by the significant increase in the percent of annexinV-FITC positive apoptotic cells by 22.5- and 26.5-folds, respectively.

RESUMO

As a part of a directed program for development of new active agents, novel heterocyclic derivatives with antipyrine and pyrazolone moieties -incorporated in- have been designed and synthesized. Starting with 4-arylidene-3-methyl-1-phenyl-5-pyrazolone derivative 2a,b novel Mannich bases derivatives have been synthesized and biologically evaluated for their anti-inflammatory activity. Furthermore, the activity of such compounds has been tested interestingly as COX-1 and COX-2 inhibitors. Structure elucidation of the synthesized compounds was attained by the use of elemental analysis, IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and Mass spectrometry techniques. Compounds 3b, 3d and 4b represent the high % inhibition values for both COX-1 and COX-2. On the other hand, compound 8 showed little selectivity against COX-2 while compound 10 showed good selectivity against COX-1 only. Structure activity relationship has been discussed and the results were confirmed by molecular docking calculations.

RESUMO

Three series of indolinone-based sulfonamides (3a-f, 6a-f and 9a-f) were in vitro evaluated as inhibitors of the tumor-associated carbonic anhydrase (CA, EC 4.2.1.1) isoforms hCA IX and XII, using a stopped-flow CO2 hydrase assay. All the investigated sulfonamides displayed single- or double-digit nanomolar inhibitory activities towards both hCA IX (KIs: 6.2-64.8 nM) and XII (KIs: 7.1-55.6 nM) isoforms. All sulfonamides (3a-f, 6a-f and 9a-f) were in vitro examined for their potential anticancer activity against colorectal cancer HCT-116 and breast cancer MCF-7 cell lines. Sulfonamide 9e was found to be the most potent counterpart against HCT-116 (IC50 = 3.67 ±â€¯0.33 µM). Sulfonamide 9e displayed good selectivity profile for inhibition of the tumor-associated isoforms (CAs IX & XII) over the off-target cytosolic CAs I and II. 9e was screened for cell cycle disturbance and apoptosis induction in HCT-116 cells. It was found to persuade cell cycle arrest at G2-M stage as well as alter the Sub-G1 phase. Also, 9e induced the intrinsic apoptotic mitochondrial pathway in HCT-116 cells via down-regulation of the anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-2 level with concurrent boosting the pro-apoptotic Bax, caspase-9, caspase-3, cytochrome C and p53 levels.

RESUMO

Tyrosine kinases are one of the most critical mediators in the signaling path way. Late studies have proved the part of tyrosine kinases in the pathophysiology of cancer diseases. This current research paper has focused on investigating the novel Pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines and Pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidines as a small molecules that can inhibit tyrosine kinase in cancer cells. NCI protocol was applied to test the antitumor activity of such compounds. Leukemia and renal cancer cell lines proved to be sensitive to some derivatives such as 6b-d, 9a and 11 with GI% values ranging from 30.4 to 41.3%. In addition, compound 11 proved to be the most active against MCF-7 with GI% 62.5. The synthesized compounds were also evaluated for their inhibitory effects against EGFR kinase enzyme. Compound 9b proved to be the most active one among the synthesized series with inhibition % value of 81.72 at 25 nM concentration and IC50 8.4 nM which is very close to the reference drug Sorafenib. In vitro cytotoxicity test was also performed using the MCF-7 breast cell line. Computer modeling using the active site of tyrosine kinase as a template and the most active tyrosine kinase inhibitors were calculated. Docking studies of the synthesized compounds into the active site of EGFR kinase domain showed good agreement with the obtained biological results.
