Palladium-Catalyzed Synthesis and Anticancer Activity of Paclitaxel-Dehydroepiandrosterone Hybrids.

ABSTRACT: According to the activity-structure relationship of the C-13 side chain in paclitaxel or docetaxel, eighteen novel paclitaxel-dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) hybrids were designed and synthesized by Pd(II)-catalyzed Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling of 17-trifluoromethanesulfonic enolate-DHEA with different aryl boronic acids. The in vitro anticancer activity of the hybrids against a human liver cancer cell line (HepG-2) was evaluated by MTT assay, showing that most of these hybrids possessed moderate antiproliferative activity against the HepG-2 cancer cell line. Among these hybrids, three ones (7b, 7g, and 7i) with ortho-substituents in the phenyl group of the D-ring of DHEA analogues exhibited moderate anticancer activity. The optimal compound 7i showed superior anticancer activity against the HepG-2 cell line with an IC50 value of 26.39 ?M.

Molecular-docking-guided design, palladium-catalyzed synthesis and anticancer activity of paclitaxel-benzoxazoles hybrids.

Project description:A series of new paclitaxel-benzoxazoles hybrids were designed based on both the molecular docking mode of beta-tubulin with paclitaxel derivatives (7a and 7g), and the activity-structure relationship of C-13 side chain in paclitaxel. Palladium-catalyzed direct Csp2-H arylation of benzoxazoles with different aryl-bromides was used as the key synthetic strategy for the aryl-benzoxazoles moieties in the hybrids. Twenty-six newly synthesized hybrids were screened for their antiproliferative activity against human cancer cell lines such as human breast cancer cells (MDA-MB-231) and liver hepatocellular cells (HepG2) by the MTT assay and results were compared with paclitaxel. Interestingly, most hybrids (7a-7e, 7i, 7k, 7l, 7A, 7B, 7D and 7E) showed significantly active against both cell lines at concentration of 50 µM, which indicated that the hybrid strategy is effective to get structural simplified paclitaxel analogues with high anti-tumor activity.

Design and synthesis of (+)-discodermolide-paclitaxel hybrids leading to enhanced biological activity.

Project description:Potential binding modes of (+)-discodermolide at the paclitaxel binding site of tubulin have been identified by computational studies based on earlier structural and SAR data. Examination of the prospective binding modes reveal that the aromatic pocket occupied by the paclitaxel side chain is unoccupied by (+)-discodermolide. Based on these findings, a small library of (+)-discodermolide-paclitaxel hybrids have been designed and synthesized. Biological evaluation reveals a two- to eight-fold increase in antiproliferative activity compared to the parent molecule using the A549 and MCF-7 cancer cell lines.

Three-Carbon Linked Dihydroartemisinin-Isatin Hybrids: Design, Synthesis and Their Antiproliferative Anticancer Activity.

Project description:Fifteen dihydroartemisinin-isatin hybrids (5a-e and 6a-j) linked with three-carbon were designed, synthesized. The antiproliferative activity against lung cancer cell lines including drug-sensitive A549, doxorubicin-resistant A549 (A549/DOX) and cisplatin-resistant A549 (A549/DDP) lung cancer cell lines was tested. The cytotocivity towards normal lung epithelial BEAS-2B cell line was also investigated. From the structure-activity relationship (SAR), it was found that hydrogen bond donors (especially hydroxime and thiosemicarbazide) at C-3 position and electron-withdrawing groups (fluoro and chloro) at C-5 position of isatin moiety were beneficial for the activity. A significant part of them (half maximal inhibitory concentration/IC50: 5.72-55.52 μM) demonstrated considerable antiproliferative activity, and the activity was superior to that of dihydroartemisinin (IC50: 69.42-88.03 μM) and artemisinin (IC50: >100 μM). In particular, two hybrids 6a, e (IC50: 5.72-9.84 μM) were not inferior to doxorubicin (IC50: 4.06 μM) and cisplatin (IC50: 9.38 μM) against drug-sensitive A549 cells and were more potent than doxorubicin (IC50: 54.32 and 15.10 μM) and cisplatin (IC50: 19.74 and 66.89 μM) against multidrug-resistant A549/DOX and A549/DDP lung cancer cell lines. In addition, hybrids 6a, e (IC50: >100 μM) showed no toxicity towards BEAS-2B cells, proving their excellent selectivity profile. Furthermore, hybrid 6a also possessed good stability in mouse and human microsomes, as well as excellent pharmacokinetic properties. Accordingly, hybrid 6a could serve as a promising anti-lung cancer chemotherapeutic candidate for further preclinical evaluations.

Piperazine tethered bergenin heterocyclic hybrids: design, synthesis, anticancer activity, and molecular docking studies.

Project description:In an attempt to develop natural product-based anticancer agents, a series of novel piperazine-linked bergenin heterocyclic hybrids bearing arylthiazolyl (5a-e), benzothiazolyl (10a-i), and arylsulfonyl (13a-o) were synthesized using the classical Mannich reaction and evaluated for their anticancer activity. All the synthesized derivatives were assessed for in vitro cytotoxic activity against a panel of human cancer and normal cell lines and the results showed that most of the compounds exhibited significant cytotoxic activity against cancer cells and mild cytotoxicity against normal cells. In particular, the compounds 5a, 5c, 10f, and 13o showed potent cytotoxic activity against tongue and oral cancer cell lines compared to the parent compound (<100 μM). Considering the efficacy, the compounds 5a, 5c, 10f, and 13o were subjected to cell cycle analysis and the results indicated that the compounds mitigated the cell cycle progression at the G0/G1 phase in the tongue and oral cancer cell lines. Subsequently, the annexin V/PI staining assay demonstrated that the compounds 5a, 5c, 10f, and 13o induced early and late apoptosis against tongue cancer and necrosis against oral cancer. Further, gene expression analysis revealed that 5a, 5c, and 13o treatment regulated the BAX and BcL-2 expression and also the selected compounds significantly reduced the expression level of vimentin, oct-4, and nanog. In addition, molecular docking studies revealed that the selected derivatives have strong binding energy with the BcL2 protein and downregulates the expression. Taken together, the study results implied that these compounds are promising anticancer candidates by modulating the epithelial to mesenchymal transition axis and could be considered for further development of novel anticancer drugs.

Parallel synthesis of a desketoraloxifene analogue library via iodocyclization/palladium-catalyzed coupling.

Project description:For a future structure-activity relationship (SAR) study, a library of desketoraloxifene analogues has been prepared by parallel synthesis using iodocyclization and subsequent palladium-catalyzed coupling reactions. Points of desketoraloxifene diversification involve the two phenolic hydroxyl groups and the aliphatic amine side chain. This approach affords oxygen-bearing 3-iodobenzo[b]thiophenes 4 in excellent yields, which are easily further elaborated using a two-step approach involving Suzuki-Miyaura and Mitsunobu coupling reactions to give multimethoxy-substituted desketoraloxifene analogues 6. Various hydroxyl-substituted desketoraloxifene analogues 7 were subsequently generated by demethylation with BBr(3).

Palladium-catalyzed synthesis of N-aryl carbamates.

Project description:An efficient synthesis of aryl carbamates was achieved by introducing alcohols into the reaction of palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling of ArX (X = Cl, OTf) with sodium cyanate. The use of aryl triflates as electrophilic components in this transformation allowed for an expanded substrate scope for direct synthesis of aryl isocyanates. This methodology provides direct access to major carbamate protecting groups, S-thiocarbamates, and diisocyanate precursors to polyurethane materials.

Hybrids of 1,4-Naphthoquinone with Thymidine Derivatives: Synthesis, Anticancer Activity, and Molecular Docking Study.

Project description:One of the most essential health problems is cancer, the first or second cause of death worldwide. Head and neck cancers are hard to detect due to non-specific symptoms. The treatment often relies on a combination of radio and chemotherapy. For this reason, the research of new anticancer compounds is fundamental. The natural and synthetic compounds with 1,4-naphthoquinone scaffold is characterized by high anticancer activity. The study aimed to evaluate the synthesis and anticancer activity of hybrids 1,4-naphthoquinone with thymidine derivatives. The series of compounds allows us to check the influence of the substituent in the C3' position of the thymidine moiety on the cytotoxicity against squamous cancer cell lines (SCC-9 and SCC-25) and submandibular gland cancer (A-253). An annexin V/propidium iodide (PI) co-staining assay shows that derivatives cause the apoptotic in SCC-25 and A-253 cell lines. The molecular docking study examined the interaction between the active site of the BCL-2 protein and the hybrids.

Synthesis and Biological Investigation of Bile Acid-Paclitaxel Hybrids.

Project description:Chenodeoxycholic acid and ursodeoxycholic acid (CDCA and UDCA, respectively) have been conjugated with paclitaxel (PTX) anticancer drugs through a high-yield condensation reaction. Bile acid-PTX hybrids (BA-PTX) have been investigated for their pro-apoptotic activity towards a selection of cancer cell lines as well as healthy fibroblast cells. Chenodeoxycholic-PTX hybrid (CDC-PTX) displayed cytotoxicity and cytoselectivity similar to PTX, whereas ursodeoxycholic-PTX hybrid (UDC-PTX) displayed some anticancer activity only towards HCT116 colon carcinoma cells. Pacific Blue (PB) conjugated derivatives of CDC-PTX and UDC-PTX (CDC-PTX-PB and UDC-PTX-PB, respectively) were also prepared via a multistep synthesis for evaluating their ability to enter tumor cells. CDC-PTX-PB and UDC-PTX-PB flow cytometry clearly showed that both CDCA and UDCA conjugation to PTX improved its incoming into HCT116 cells, allowing the derivatives to enter the cells up to 99.9%, respect to 35% in the case of PTX. Mean fluorescence intensity analysis of cell populations treated with CDC-PTX-PB and UDC-PTX-PB also suggested that CDC-PTX-PB could have a greater ability to pass the plasmatic membrane than UDC-PTX-PB. Both hybrids showed significant lower toxicity with respect to PTX on the NIH-3T3 cell line.

Synthesis, Docking, and Machine Learning Studies of Some Novel Quinolinesulfonamides-Triazole Hybrids with Anticancer Activity.

Project description:In the presented work, a series of 22 hybrids of 8-quinolinesulfonamide and 1,4-disubstituted triazole with antiproliferative activity were designed and synthesised. The title compounds were designed using molecular modelling techniques. For this purpose, machine-learning, molecular docking, and molecular dynamics methods were used. Calculations of the pharmacokinetic parameters (connected with absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion, and toxicity) of the hybrids were also performed. The new compounds were synthesised via a copper-catalysed azide-alkyne cycloaddition reaction (CuAAC). 8-N-Methyl-N-{[1-(7-chloroquinolin-4-yl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl]methyl}quinolinesulfonamide was identified in in silico studies as a potential strong inhibitor of Rho-associated protein kinase and as a compound that has an appropriate pharmacokinetic profile. The results obtained from in vitro experiments confirm the cytotoxicity of derivative 9b in four selected cancer cell lines and the lack of cytotoxicity of this derivative towards normal cells. The results obtained from silico and in vitro experiments indicate that the introduction of another quinolinyl fragment into the inhibitor molecule may have a significant impact on increasing the level of cytotoxicity toward cancer cells and indicate a further direction for future research in order to find new substances suitable for clinical applications in cancer treatment.
