RESUMO
PURPOSE: To evaluate the effect of zirconia priming with MDP-Salt before MDP containing primers and self-adhesive cement on the shear bond strength. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Fully sintered high translucent zirconia specimens (n = 120) were assigned into 2 groups (n = 60 each): Control (No Pretreatment) and Methacryloyloxydecyl dihydrogen phosphate salt (MDP-Salt) pretreated. Each group was divided into 3 subgroups (n = 20) according to cementation protocol: 1) MDP + Silane primer and conventional resin cement, 2) MDP+ Bisphenyl dimethacrylate (BPDM) primer and conventional resin cement, and 3) MDP containing self-adhesive resin cement. Shear bond strength (SBS) was measured after 10,000 thermocycling. Contact angle was measured for tested groups. Surface topography was assessed using a 3D confocal laser scanning microscope (CLSM). Weibull analysis was performed for SBS and one-way ANOVA for contact angle and surface topography measurements (α = 0.05). RESULTS: The use of MDP-Salt significantly improved the SBS (p < .05) for all tested subgroups. Self-adhesive cement showed an insignificant difference with MDP + Silane group for both groups (p > .05). MDP + BPDM showed a significantly lower characteristic strength compared to self-adhesive resin cement when both were pretreated with MDP-Salt. No difference between all tested groups in the surface topographic measurements while MDP-Salt showed the highest contact angle. CONCLUSION: MDP-Salt pretreatment can improve bonding performance between zirconia and MDP containing products.

Pyrano[2,3-d]pyrimidine derivatives were synthesized by treating cyclic compounds containing active methylene group with aldehyde and malononitrile in butanol. The behavior of pyrano[2,3-d]pyrimidine towards some electrophlies namely triethylorthoformate followed by nitrogen nucleophiles as isobutylamine, urea, phenylthiourea, p-toluidine, o-phenylenediamine, o-aminophenol, 2-amino-4-methyl-pyridine and acetic acid with the aim of obtaining some interesting non-mixed heterocyclic compounds. All synthesized compounds to some extent have shown good antimicrobial activity against different microbial strains that had been extracted by inhibiting cell wall synthesis. Compound 5b showed the highest antibacterial activities against B. subtilis, S. aureus and E. coli. On the other hand compound 5 g exhibited the highest antibacterial and antifungal activities against P. aeruginosa and A. niger respectively. In addition, they explore cytotoxic potentialities against different cell lines via DNA intercalation and Top-II inhibition. The cytotoxic activities clarify the strong inhibitory activity of derivative 5a against HepG2 cells with IC50 = 2.09 µM, while HCT-116 cells were highly susceptible to derivative 5c with IC50 = 2.61 µM, in the meantime, derivative 5f showed pronounced negative impact against MCF-7 (IC50 = 2.43 µM) when compared with other prepared compounds. All derivatives exhibited higher anticancer activities than doxorubicin against the three cell lines except compound 2 against both HepG2 and MCF-7 and compound 5e against HepG2 cell lines. Compounds 5a, 5c and 5f potently intercalate DNA at IC50 values of 26.96, 27.13 and 29.86 µM respectively, which were more potent than doxorubicin (IC50 value of 31.27 µM). Moreover, compounds 5a, 5c and 5f exhibited very good Topoisomerase II inhibitory activities with IC50 values of 0.752, 0.791 and 0.776 µM respectively, that were more potent than that of doxorubicin (IC50 = 0.94 µM). For a great extent, the molecular modeling studies were in agreement with that of in vitro cytotoxicity activity, DNA binding and Top-II inhibition results.

Novel series of diazepam bearing sulfonamide moieties 5a-f and 7a-c were designed, synthesized and evaluated for anticancer activity against HepG2, HCT-116 and MCF-7 cell lines. MCF-7 was the most sensitive cell line to the influence of the new derivatives. In particular, compound 5d was found to be the most potent derivative overall the tested compounds against the three HepG2, HCT116 and MCF-7 cancer cell lines with IC50 = 8.98 ± 0.1, 7.77 ± 0.1 and 6.99 ± 0.1 µM respectively. Compound 5d exhibited higher activity than sorafenib, (IC50 = 9.18 ± 0.6, 5.47 ± 0.3 and 7.26 ± 0.3 µM respectively), against HepG2 and MCF-7 but exhibited lower activity against HCT116 cancer cell lines respectively. Also, this compound displayed lower activity than doxorubicin, (IC50 = 7.94 ± 0.6, 8.07 ± 0.8 and 6.75 ± 0.4 µM respectively), against HepG2 and MCF-7 but higher activity against HCT116 cell lines respectively. Compounds 5b, 5c, 5d, 5e, 5f and 7c are respectively, 5.77, 8.58, 9.54, 5.71, 4.68 and 2.31 fold times more toxic in breast cancer cell lines (MCF-7, the most sensitive cells) than in VERO normal cells. All the synthesized compounds 5a-f and 7a-c were evaluated for their inhibitory activities against VEGFR-2. Among them, compound 5d was found to be the most potent derivative that inhibited VEGFR-2 at IC50 value of 0.10 ± 0.01 µM, which is equipotent to sorafenib IC50 value (0.10 ± 0.02 µM). Compound 5c exhibited excellent activity with IC50 value of 0.12 ± 0.01 µM which nearly equipotent to that of sorafenib. Compounds 5b, 5e and 5f exhibited very good activity with the same IC50 value of 0.14 ± 0.02 µM. Also, compounds 7c and 7b possessed good VEGFR-2 inhibition with IC50 values of 0.16 ± 0.06 and 0.17 ± 0.06 µM respectively which are more than the half activity of that of sorafenib. The data obtained from docking studies were highly correlated with that obtained from the biological screening.

We present a novel route for the quick and easy synthesis of a broad range of ß-lactams. The synthesis involves a [3+1] cyclization of amide dianions with diiodomethane. In contrast to the seminal work of Hirai et al. from 1979, the reaction proved to be a general and efficient approach towards azetidinones. The ease of the process was confirmed by DFT calculations and its power demonstrated by a diversity-oriented synthesis of ß-lactams with four points of diversity determined by the choice of Ugi adducts as starting materials.

Photocatalysis is a promising technique to reduce hazardous organic pollutants using semiconductors under visible light. However, previous studies have been concerned with the behavior of silver phosphate (Ag3PO4) as n-type semiconductors, and the problem of their instability is still under investigation. Herein, 4,4'-(((oxalylbis(azanediyl)) bis(carbonothioyl)) bis(azanediyl)) dibenzoic acid is synthesized by green method and used to enhance the photocatalytic behavior for Ag3PO4. The incorporated Ag3PO4 core-shell is prepared and characterized via XRD, FT-IR, Raman, TEM and BET. Besides, the thermal stability of the prepared core shell was investigated via TGA and DSC measurements. The optical properties and the energy band gap are determined using photoluminescence and DRS measurements. The photodegradation of methylene blue in the presence of the synthesized Ag3PO4 core-shell under visible light is examined using UV/Vis measurements. The effect of initial dye concentration and contact time are studied. In addition, the kinetic behavior of the selected dye during the photodegradation process shows a pseudo-first order reaction with rate constant of 0.015 min-1 for ZAg. The reusability of the Ag3PO4 core shell is evaluated, and the efficiency changed from 96.76 to 94.02% after three cycles, indicating efficient photocatalytic behavior with excellent stability.
RESUMO
In this article, we continued our previous effort to develop new selective anticancer candidates based on the basic pharmacophoric requirements of both EGFR and VEGFR-2 inhibitors. Therefore, twenty-two novel 4-thiophenyl-pyrazole, pyridine, and pyrimidine derivatives were designed and examined as dual EGFR/VEGFR-2 inhibitors. Besides, the previously reported antimicrobial activities of the aforementioned nuclei motivated us to screen their antibacterial and antifungal activities as well. First, the antitumor activities of the newly synthesized derivatives were evaluated against two cancer cell lines (HepG-2 and MCF-7). Notably, compounds 2a, 6a, 7a, 10b, 15a, and 18a exhibited superior anticancer activities against both HepG-2 and MCF-7 cancer cell lines. These candidates were selected to further evaluate their anti-EGFR and anti-VEGFR-2 potentialities which were found to be very promising compared to erlotinib and sorafenib, respectively. Both 10b and 2a derivatives achieved better dual EGFR/VEGFR-2 inhibition with IC50 values of 0.161 and 0.141 µM and 0.209 and 0.195 µM, respectively. Moreover, the most active 10b was selected to evaluate the exact phase of cell cycle arrest and to investigate the exact mechanism of cancer cell death whether it be due to apoptosis or necrosis. On the other hand, all the synthesized compounds were tested against Gram-positive bacteria such as S. aureus and B. subtilis as well as Gram-negative bacteria such as E. coli and P. aeuroginosa. Also, the antifungal activity was investigated against C. albicans and A. flavus strains. The findings of the antimicrobial tests revealed that most of the investigated compounds exhibited strong to moderate antibacterial and antifungal effects. Furthermore, to understand the pattern by which the investigated compounds bound to the active site, all the newly synthesized candidates were subjected to two different docking processes into the EGFR and VEGFR-2 binding sites. Besides, we tried to correlate compound 10b and the reference drugs (erlotinib and sorafenib) through DFT calculations. Finally, following the biological data of the new pyrazole, pyridine, and pyrimidine derivatives as anticancer and antimicrobial candidates, we concluded a very interesting SAR for further optimization.
RESUMO
Novel azobenzene scaffold-joined heterocyclic isoxazole, pyrazole, triazole, and/or triazine moieties have been developed and synthesized utilizing microwave and traditional methods. Our compounds were tested for growth inhibition of A549, MCF-7, HCT-116, and HepG2 tumors by dual targeting the VEGFR-2 and EGFRT790M enzymes. The suggested compound's manner of binding with EGFRT790M and VEGFR-2 active sites was explored through molecular design and MD modeling. The information from the results of the biological screening and the docking studies was highly correlated. The A549 cell line was the one that responded to the novel compound's effects most effectively. Having IC50 values of 5.15, 6.37, 8.44 and 6.23 µM, respectively, 14 was the most effective derivative on the four A549, MCF-7, HCT116 and HepG2 cancer cells. It had greater activity than erlotinib and slightly inferior activities on the tested cell lines than sorafenib, respectively. The cytotoxicity of the most effective derivatives, 5, 6, 10 and 14, was evaluated against typical VERO cell lines. Having IC50 values ranging from 42.32 to 55.20 µM, the results showed that the investigated drugs have modest toxicity against VERO normal cells. Additionally all derivatives were assessed for their dual VEGFR-2 and EGFRT790M inhibitory effects. Among them, derivatives 14, 5 and 10 were established as the greatest inhibitors of VEGFR-2 at IC50 values of 0.95, 1.25 and 1.50 µM correspondingly. As well, derivatives 14, 6, 5 and 10 could inhibit EGFRT790M activity demonstrating strongest effects with IC50 = 0.25, 0.35, 0.40 and 0.50 µM respectively. Furthermore, the ADMET profile was evaluated for compounds 5, 6, 10 and 14 in contrast to reference drugs sorafenib and erlotinib.
RESUMO
Newly designed thiazolidine-2,4-diones 3-7a-c were synthesized, and their anticancer activities were screened against three cancer lines. They showed potent activities against HepG2 compared to the other HCT116 and MCF-7 tumor cell lines. Compounds 7c and 6c were detected as highly effective derivatives against MCF-7 (IC50 = 7.78 and 8.15 µM), HCT116 (IC50 = 5.77 and 7.11 µM) and HepG2 (IC50 = 8.82 and 8.99 µM). The highly effective derivatives 6a-c and 7a-c were tested against VERO normal cell lines. All derivatives were evaluated for their VEGFR-2 inhibitory actions and demonstrated high to low activities, with IC50 values varying from 0.08 to 0.93 µM. Moreover, derivatives 5a-c, 6a-c and 7a-c were assessed to verify their in vitro binding affinities to PPARγ and insulin-secreting activities. Finally, docking studies were performed to explore their affinities and binding modes toward both VEGFR-2 and PPARγ receptors.
RESUMO
Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerases-1 (PARP-1) are involved in DNA repair damage and so PARP-1 inhibitors have been used as potentiators in combination with DNA damaging cytotoxic agents to compromise the cancer cell DNA repair mechanism, resulting in genomic dysfunction and cell death. In this study, we report the synthesis of a novel series of pyrano[2,3-d]pyrimidine-2,4-dione analogues as potential inhibitors against PARP-1. All the newly synthesized compounds were evaluated for their inhibitory activity towards PARP-1 and examined for their anti-proliferative activity against MCF-7 and HCT116 human cancer cell lines. The synthesized compounds showed promising activity where compounds S2 and S7 emerged as the most potent PARP-1 inhibitors with an IC50 value of 4.06 ± 0.18 and 3.61 ± 0.15 nM, respectively compared to that of Olaparib 5.77 nM and high cytotoxicity against MCF-7 with IC50 2.65 ± 0.05 and 1.28 ± 1.12 µM, respectively (Staurosporine 7.258 µM). Compound S8 remarkably showed the highest cell growth inhibition against MCF-7 and HCT116 with an IC50 value of 0.66 ± 0.05 and 2.76 ± 0.06 µM, respectively. Furthermore, molecular docking of the compounds into the PARP-1 active site was performed to explore the probable binding mode. Finally, most of the synthesized compounds were predicted to have good pharmacokinetics properties in a theoretical kinetic study.
RESUMO
We report here selective Tsuji-Trost type allylation of Ugi adducts using a strategy based on the enhanced nucleophilicity of amide dianions. Ugi adducts derived from aromatic aldehydes were easily allylated at their peptidyl position with allyl acetate in the presence of palladium catalysts. These substitutions were compared to more classical transition metal free allylations using allyl bromides.
RESUMO
Propargylation of Ugi adducts under the addition of excess sodium hydride in DMSO leads to direct formation of pyrrolidinone enamides, which are useful precursors of iminium intermediates and may be trapped by various nucleophiles. This approach has been applied to the formation of benzoindolizidine alkaloids with high diversity via a Ugi/propargylation/Pictet-Spengler cyclization.
