Design, Synthesis, Molecular Docking, Dynamics Simulation, and Biological Evaluation of Novel Thiazolidinedione Derivatives Against Breast Cancer with Apoptosis-Inducing Activity.

ABSTRACT: Breast cancer remains one of the leading causes of cancer-related deaths among women worldwide. The chemotherapeutic drugs used in treatment often have serious side effects. In light of their anticancer potential, thiazolidinedione (TZD) derivatives are considered to be promising candidates for the development of novel antitumor agents. The objective of this study is to synthesize and produce two sets of TZD derivatives by combining the structural features of microtubule-targeting drugs used in breast cancer treatment, and to determine their molecular docking, molecular dynamics simulations, ADMET profile, antiproliferative, and apoptotic effect potential. In the present study, PZ-11 was determined by xCELLigence analysis to have the highest antiproliferative potential among all compounds
