[PMID: 37477067 DOI: 10.1002/cbdv.202300560] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/19/2023] [Revised: 07/15/2023] [Accepted: 07/20/2023] [Indexed: 07/22/2023]
Abstract
QSAR analysis of previously synthesized and nature-inspired virtual isoflavone-cytisine hybrids against the HEp-2 laryngeal carcinoma cell lines was performed using the OCHEM web platform. The validation of the models using an external test set proved that the models can be used to predict the activity of newly designed compounds such as 8-cytisinylmethyl derivatives of 5,7- and 6,7-dihydroxyisoflavones. The synthetic procedure for selective aminomethylation of 5,7-dihydroxyisoflavones with cytisine was developed. In vitro testing identified compound 7 f with cisplatin-level cytotoxicity against HEp-2 cell lines and compound 10 which was twice active than cisplatin after 72 h of incubation.

Eur J Med Chem 2023; 258:115533. [PMID: 37302342 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejmech.2023.115533] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/17/2023] [Revised: 05/14/2023] [Accepted: 05/28/2023] [Indexed: 06/13/2023]
Abstract
The chromone alkaloid is one of the classical pharmacophores for cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) and represents the first CDK inhibitor to reach clinical trials. Rohitukine (1), a chromone alkaloid isolated from Dysoxylum binectariferum inspired the discovery of several clinical candidates. The N-oxide derivative of rohitukine occurs naturally, with no reports on its biological activity. Herein, we report isolation, biological evaluation, and synthetic modification of rohitukine N-oxide for CDK9/T1 inhibition and antiproliferative activity in cancer cells. Rohitukine N-oxide (2) inhibits CDK9/T1 (IC50 7.6 μM) and shows antiproliferative activity in the colon and pancreatic cancer cells. The chloro-substituted styryl derivatives, 2b, and 2l, inhibit CDK9/T1 with IC50 values of 0.17 and 0.15 μM, respectively. These derivatives display cellular antiproliferative activity in HCT 116 (colon) and MIA PaCa-2 (pancreatic) cancer cells with GI50 values of 2.5-9.7 μM with excellent selectivity over HEK293 (embryonic kidney) cells. Both analogs induce cell death in MIA PaCa-2 cells via inducing intracellular ROS production, reducing mitochondrial membrane potential, and inducing apoptosis. These analogs are metabolically stable in liver microsomes and have a decent oral pharmacokinetics in BALB/c mice. The molecular modeling studies indicated their strong binding at the ATP-binding site of CDK7/H and CDK9/T1.

Abstract
Minichromosome maintenance complex component 7 (MCM7) belongs to the minichromosome maintenance family that is necessary for the initiation of eukaryotic DNA replication. Overexpression of the MCM7 protein is linked to cellular proliferation and is accountable for critical malignancy in many cancers. Mechanistically, the suppression of MCM7 greatly lowers the cellular proliferation associated with cancer. Advances in immunotherapy have revolutionized treatments for many types of cancer. To date, no effective small molecular candidate has been found that can stop the advancement of cancer produced by the MCM7 protein. Here, we present the findings of methods that used a combination of structure-assisted drug design, high-throughput virtual screening, and simulations studies to swiftly generate lead compounds against MCM7 protein. In the current study, we designed efficient compounds that may combat all emerging cancer targeting the common MCM7 protein. For this objective, a molecular docking and molecular dynamics (MD) simulation-based virtual screening of 29,000 NPASS library was carried out. As a consequence of using specific pharmacological, physiological, and ADMET criteria, four new prevailing compounds, NPA000018, NPA000111, NPA00305, and NPA014826, were successfully selected. The MD simulations were also used for a time period of 50 ns to evaluate for stability and dynamics behavior of the compounds. Eventually, compounds NPA000111 and NPA014826 were found to be highly potent against MCM7 protein. According to our results, the selected compounds may be effective in treating certain cancer subtypes, for which additional follow-up experimental validation is recommended.

Abstract
Novel 2-[2-(chroman-4-ylidene)hydrazinyl]-4/5-substituted thiazole derivatives (2a-i) were synthesized and investigated for their anticancer activity. Cytotoxic activity on A549 and NIH/3T3 cell lines was determined, most of the compounds exhibited high cytotoxic profile with selectivity. Selected compounds 2b, 2c, 2e, 2g, 2h, and 2i were tested to determine induction of apoptosis, mitochondrial membrane depolarization, and cell cycle arrest. The results showed that the compounds induced apoptosis intrinsically that they triggered loss of mitochondrial potential through increasing the accumulation of cells in G2/M. Besides, intrinsic apoptotic pathway was supported by down-regulation of anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-2 and up-regulation of proapoptotic protein Bax. Molecular docking study for compounds 2b, 2c, and 2g was promoted experimental outcomes.
