ABSTRACT
A new series of indolyl 1,2,4-triazole scaffolds was designed, synthesised, and biologically evaluated for their inhibitory activity against both CDK4 and CDK6. The results ranged from 0.049 µM to 3.031 µM on CDK4 and from 0.075 µM to 1.11 µM on CDK6 when compared to staurosporine, with IC50 values of 1.027 and 0.402 µM, respectively. Moreover, all compounds were tested for their cytotoxicity against two breast cancer cell lines, MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231. All of the synthesised compounds showed promising anti-proliferative activity, with two compounds Vf (IC50 = 2.91 and 1.914 µM, respectively) and Vg (IC50 = 0.891 and 3.479 µM, respectively) having potent cytotoxic activity in comparison to the reference staurosporine (IC50 = 3.144 and 4.385 µM, respectively). Vf and Vg were also found to significantly induce apoptosis to 45.33% and 37.26% (control = 1.91%) where Vf arrested the cell cycle at the S phase while Vg arrested the cycle at the G0/G1 phase. The binding mode and interactions of all compounds were studied and found to mimic those of the FDA approved CDK4/6 inhibitor palbociclib that was used as a reference throughout the study.
