Abstract
Despite the tremendous progress that has occurred in recent years in cell biology and oncology, in chemical, physical and computer sciences, the disease cancer has continued as the major cause of death globally. Research organizations, academic institutions and pharmaceutical companies invest huge amounts of money in the discovery and development of new anticancer drugs. Though much effort is continuing and whatever available approaches are being attempted, the success of bringing one effective drug into the market has been uncertain. To overcome problems associated with drug discovery, several approaches are being attempted. One such approach has been the use of known, approved and marketed drugs to screen these for new indications, which have gained considerable interest. This approach is known in different terms as "drug repositioning or drug repurposing." Drug repositioning refers to the structure modification of the active molecule by synthesis, in vitro/ in vivo screening and in silico computational applications where macromolecular structure-based drug design (SBDD) is employed. In this perspective, we aimed to focus on the application of repositioning or repurposing of essential drug moieties present in drugs that are already used for the treatment of some diseases such as diabetes, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection and inflammation as anticancer agents. This review thus covers the available literature where molecular modeling of drugs/enzyme inhibitors through SBDD is reported for antidiabetics, anti-HIV and inflammatory diseases, which are structurally modified and screened for anticancer activity using respective cell lines.

Bioisosteric ferrocenyl 1,3-thiazolidine-4-carboxylic acid derivatives: In vitro antiproliferative and antimicrobial evaluations. Bioorg Chem 2023; 139:106708. [PMID: 37487425 DOI: 10.1016/j.bioorg.2023.106708] [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: 04/12/2023] [Revised: 06/11/2023] [Accepted: 06/27/2023] [Indexed: 07/26/2023]
Abstract
To improve the antiproliferative effect of ALC67 (diastereomeric mixture of ethyl 2-phenyl-3-propioloyl-1,3-thiazolidine-4-carboxylate), its structure was modified via (i) bioisosteric substitution of the phenyl ring by the ferrocene unit and (ii) replacing the propiolamide side-chain in ACL67 with other acyl groups having differing electrophilicities. In this way, a small library of methyl N-acyl-2-ferrocenyl-1,3-thiazolidine-4-carboxylates (13 compounds in total) was created and characterized by spectral and crystallographic means. The last N-acylation step was highly diastereoselective toward the cis-diastereomer. In solution, most of the obtained compounds existed as a mixture of two rotamers and displayed a preference for the syn-orientation around the CN bond. A twisted 5T4 envelope conformation was adopted by the derivative containing the N-phenoxyacetyl group in the crystalline state. Two derivatives with chloroacetyl and bromoacetyl groups in the N-3 side chain were cytotoxic to fibroblasts and hepatocellular cancer cells in the low micromolar range (IC50(MRC5) = 9.0 and 11.8 μM, respectively, and IC50(HepG2) = 10.6 and 18.4 μM, respectively) causing an effect similar to the lead compound (IC50(HepG2) = 10.0 μM) and cisplatin (IC50(MRC5) = 4.0 μM and IC50(HepG2) = 7.7 μM). Several derivatives also manifested modest antimicrobial effects against the studied microbial strains (MICs in the range from 0.44 to 4.0 μmol/mL). Our findings demonstrated that the introduction of a ferrocene core facilitated the preparation of optically pure analogs of ALC67 and that the cytotoxicity of compounds may be enhanced by adding proper electrophilic centers to the N-acyl side-chain.

Abstract
Heterocyclic compounds have been featured as the key building blocks for the development of biologically active molecules. In addition to being derived from renewable raw materials, fatty acids possess a variety of biological properties. The two bioactive ingredients are being combined by many researchers to produce hybrid molecules that have a number of desirable properties. Biological activities and significance of heterocyclic derivatives of fatty acids have been demonstrated in a new class of heterocyclic compounds called heterocyclic fatty acid hybrid derivatives. The significance of heterocyclic-fatty acid hybrid derivatives has been emphasized in numerous research articles over the past few years. In this review, we emphasize the development of synthetic methods and their biological evaluation for heterocyclic fatty acid derivatives. These reports, combined with the upcoming compilation, are expected to serve as comprehensive foundations and references for synthetic, preparative, and applicable methods in medicinal chemistry.

Abstract
Paeonol, 2-hydroxy-4-methoxy acetophenone, is one of the main active ingredients of traditional Chinese medicine such as Cynanchum paniculatum, Paeonia suffruticosa Andr and Paeonia lactiflora Pall. Modern medical research has shown that paeonol has a wide range of pharmacological activities. In recent years, a large number of studies have been carried out on the structure modification of paeonol and the mechanism of action of paeonol derivatives has been studied. Some paeonol derivatives exhibit good pharmacological activities in terms of antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, antipyretic analgesic, antioxidant and other pharmacological effects. Herein, the research progress on paeonol derivatives and their pharmacological activities were systematically reviewed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Thiazolidinoneones are important pharmaceutical compounds because of their biological activities. Several methods for the synthesis of 4-thiazolidinones are widely reported in the literature. The main synthetic routes to synthesize 1,3-thiazolidin-4-ones involve three components reaction between amine, a carbonyl compound and thioglycolic acid. OBJECTIVE s-Proline covalented silicapropyl modified magnetic nanoparticles (Fe3O4@SiO2-Pr @s-proline) were prepared. The antibacterial activity of synthesized nanoparticles against four bacterias was investigated that showed that 30 Mg/L of synthesized nanoparticles is a suitable concentration for bacterial inhibitory. Finally, the catalytic application of the synthesized s-Proline covalented silicapropyl modified magnetic nanoparticles for the synthesis of thiazolidinones and pyrazolyl thiazolidinones under stirring in aqueous media was evaluated. All of the synthesized organic compounds were characterized by mp, FT IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR and elemental analysis. MATERIALS AND METHODS A combination of aldehyde (1.0 mmol), thioglycolic acid (1.0 mmol), various amines (1mmol) and 0.05 g Fe3O4@SiO2propyl@L-proline, were reacted at room temperature under stirring in 10 mL water. After completion of the reaction, as indicated by TLC (4:1 hexane: ethylacetate), the reaction mixture was filtered in the presence of an effective magnetic bar to separate the nanocatalyst. The nanocatalyst was washed with a mixture of hot EtOH: H2O two times. The crude products were collected and recrystallized from ethanol, if necessary. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION We present a novel avenue for the synthesis of thiazolidinones in the presence of Fe3O4@SiO2-Pr @s-proline under solvent-free conditions. CONCLUSION In conclusion, we have synthesized Fe3O4@SiO2-Pr@s-proline nanoparticles. Their biological activity against 4 bacterias was investigated. It released that 30Mg/L is the suitable concentration of synthesized nanoparticle for bacterial inhibitory. The catalytic efficiency of the catalyst was checked in the multicomponent reaction of various aldehyde, thioglycolic acid and various amines under stirring. This nanoparticle is a new organic-inorganic hybrid nanoparticle. The operational simplicity, the excellent yields of products, ease of separation and recyclability of the magnetic catalyst, waste reduction and high selectivity are the main advantages of this catalytic method. Furthermore, this new avenue is inexpensive and environmentally benign.

Abstract
Gold(I)-containing complexes are used in drug discovery research for rheumatoid arthritis, cancer, and parasitic infections. In this study, we tested the bioactivity of gold(I) complexes in vivo using planarians. The planarian Schmidtea mediterranea possesses orthologues of tumor suppressor genes, such as p53, that, when silenced, cause deregulation of cell proliferation and apoptosis. In this context, we tested two triethylphosphine-gold(I) complexes (AdO and AdT) to determine if they can attenuate phenotypes that result from p53 inhibition. First, we identified the drug concentration that did not affect survival or regeneration and evaluated the drug's effect on cell division and apoptosis. We found that AdT treatment decreased the number of mitotic cells and that all drug treatments increased the number of apoptotic cells. We then performed p53(RNAi) and drug treatments concomitantly and observed the phenotype progression. Drug treatment increased survival three-fold and decreased apoptosis, which resulted in an attenuated phenotype. Our results indicate that planarians can be treated with gold(I) complexes, and that this treatment can diminish the p53(RNAi) phenotype and extend survival. In this work we show that planarians can be used as a model to study the in vivo effect of gold(I) complexes and to further investigate their mechanisms of action.

Abstract
The presented review is an attempt to summarize a huge volume of data on 5-ene-4-thiazolidinones being a widely studied class of small molecules used in modern organic and medicinal chemistry. The manuscript covers approaches to the synthesis of 5-ene-4-thiazolidinone derivatives: modification of the C5 position of the basic core; synthesis of the target compounds in the one-pot or multistage reactions or transformation of other related heterocycles. The most prominent pharmacological profiles of 5-ene derivatives of different 4-thiazolidinone subtypes belonging to hit-, lead-compounds, drug-candidates and drugs as well as the most studied targets have been discussed. Currently target compounds (especially 5-en-rhodanines) are assigned as frequent hitters or pan-assay interference compounds (PAINS) within high-throughput screening campaigns. Nevertheless, the crucial impact of the presence/nature of C5 substituent (namely 5-ene) on the pharmacological effects of 5-ene-4-thiazolidinones was confirmed by the numerous listed findings from the original articles. The main directions for active 5-ene-4-thiazolidinones optimization have been shown: i) complication of the fragment in the C5 position; ii) introduction of the substituents in the N3 position (especially fragments with carboxylic group or its derivatives); iii) annealing in complex heterocyclic systems; iv) combination with other pharmacologically attractive fragments within hybrid pharmacophore approach. Moreover, the utilization of 5-ene-4-thiazolidinones in the synthesis of complex compounds with potent pharmacological application is described. The chemical transformations cover mainly the reactions which involve the exocyclic double bond in C5 position of the main core and correspond to the abovementioned direction of the 5-ene-4-thiazolidinone modification.

Abstract
ALC67 is an N-acylated thiazolidine compound with promising anticancer activity that led to the recent discovery of a series of 3-propionyl thiazolidine-4-carboxylic acid ethyl esters as a family of novel antiproliferative agents. Since the mutagenic and genotoxic properties of marketed anticancer molecules constitute a main issue to be addressed, this study focused on the analysis of the mutagenicity, antimutagenecity, and genotoxicity of this molecule. The mutagenicity and antimutagenicity of ALC67 were evaluated by Ames test performed on Salmonella TA98 and TA100 strains. The genotoxicity of this molecule was investigated in the chromosomal aberration assay on human lymphocytes. All results revealed that the analyzed structure is not mutagenic in the two Salmonella strains tested and was not genotoxic in human lymphocytes in vitro On the other hand, it showed a weak antimutagenic effect in these two bacterial strains. The above results indicate that after performing some more mutagenicity assays using the other recommended strains, this compound can be safely used for the development of new structures exhibiting anticancer activities.

Abstract
Nine new chromonylthiazolidine derivatives were successfully semi-synthesized from paeonol. All of the compounds, including starting materials, the intermediate compound and products, were evaluated for their cytotoxic effects toward eight human cancer cell lines. The synthesized chromonylthiazolidines displayed weak cytotoxic effects against the tested cancer cell lines, but selective cytotoxic effects were observed. Compounds 3a and 3b showed the most selective cytotoxic effects against human epidermoid carcinoma (IC50 44.1 ± 3.6 μg/mL) and breast cancer (IC50 32.8 ± 1.4 μg/mL) cell lines, respectively. The results suggest that chromoylthiazolidines are potential low-cost, and selective anticancer agents.

Abstract
The interaction of small molecules with DNA plays an essential role in many biological processes. As DNA is often the target for majority of anticancer and antibiotic drugs, study about the interaction of drug and DNA has a key role in pharmacology. Moreover, understanding the interactions of small molecules with DNA is of prime significance in the rational design of more powerful and selective anticancer agents. Two of the most important and promising targets in cancer chemotherapy include DNA alkylating agents and DNA intercalators. For these last the DNA recognition is a critical step in their anti-tumor action and the intercalation is not only one kind of the interactions in DNA recognition but also a pivotal step of several clinically used anti-tumor drugs such as anthracyclines, acridines and anthraquinones. To push clinical cancer therapy, the discovery of new DNA intercalators has been considered a practical approach and a number of intercalators have been recently reported. The intercalative binding properties of such molecules can also be harnessed as diagnostic probes for DNA structure in addition to DNA-directed therapeutics. Moreover, the problem of intercalation site formation in the undistorted B-DNA of different length and sequence is matter of tremendous importance in molecular modeling studies and, nowadays, three models of DNA intercalation targets have been proposed that account for the binding features of intercalators. Finally, despite DNA being an important target for several drugs, most of the docking programs are validated only for proteins and their ligands. Therefore, a default protocol to identify DNA binding modes which uses a modified canonical DNA as receptor is needed.

Abstract
The forward chemogenomics strategy allowed us to identify a potent cytotoxic thiazolidine compound as an apoptosis-inducing agent. Chemical structures were designed around a thiazolidine ring, a structure already noted for its anticancer properties. Initially, we evaluated these novel compounds on liver, breast, colon and endometrial cancer cell lines. The compound 3 (ALC67) showed the strongest cytotoxic activity (IC(50) ∼5 μM). Cell cycle analysis with ALC67 on liver cells revealed SubG1/G1 arrest bearing apoptosis. Furthermore we demonstrated that cytotoxicity of this compound was due to the activation of caspase-9 involved apoptotic pathway, which is death receptor independent.

Abstract
As a continuation of our efforts to discover and develop small molecules as anticancer agents, we identified GRI-394837 as an initial hit from similarity search on RGD and its analogs. Based on GRI-394837, we designed and synthesized a focused set of novel chromenes (4a-e) in a single step using microwave method. All five compounds showed activity in the nanomolar range (IC(50): 7.4-640 nM) in two melanoma, three prostate and four glioma cancer cell lines. The chromene 4e is active against all the cell lines and particularly against the A172 human glioma cell line (IC(50): 7.4 nM). Interestingly, in vitro tubulin polymerization assay shows 4e to be a weak tubulin polymerization inhibitor but it shows very strong cytotoxicity in cellular assays, therefore there must be additional unknown mechanism(s) for the anticancer activity. Additionally, the strong antiproliferative activity was verified by one of the selected chromene (4a) by the NCI 60 cell line screen. These results strongly suggest that the novel chromenes could be further developed as a potential therapeutic agent for a variety of aggressive cancers.

Abstract
A set of 2-galactosylthiazolidine-4-carboxylic acid amides was synthesized with different length for the carbon chain amide moiety. The cytotoxicity of the molecules was evaluated against A375 melanoma and MCF7 breast cancer cell lines. For the derivatives tested, the one that contains a C(16) amide carbon chain is the most active with an IC(50) of 17.0 μM for A375 and 5.8 μM for MCF7. This compound also shows cytotoxicity in the triple negative cancer cell line HCC1806. The selectivity of the compounds was assessed by comparing the cytotoxicity in cancer cell line versus in a fibroblast cell line. Flow cytometry studies show the activation of apoptotic pathways and also DNA damages with blockage of the cell cycle in the S-phase and appearance of peaks in G0/G1-phase.

Abstract
Although their exact role in controlling tumour growth and apoptosis in humans remains undefined, acridine and thiazolidine compounds have been shown to act as tumour suppressors in most cancers. Based on this finding, a series of novel hybrid 5-acridin-9-ylmethylene-3-benzyl-thiazolidine-2,4-diones were synthesised via N-alkylation and Michael reaction. The cell viability was analysed using a 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay, and DNA interaction assays were performed using electrochemical techniques.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate abilities of 2-aryl-4-benzoyl-imidazoles (ABI) to overcome multidrug resistance (MDR), define their cellular target, and assess in vivo antimelanoma efficacy. METHODS MDR cell lines that overexpressed P-glycoprotein, MDR-associated proteins, and breast cancer resistance protein were used to evaluate ABI ability to overcome MDR. Cell cycle analysis, molecular modeling, and microtubule imaging were used to define ABI cellular target. SHO mice bearing A375 human melanoma xenograft were used to evaluate ABI in vivo antitumor activity. B16-F10/C57BL mouse melanoma lung metastasis model was used to test ABI efficacy to inhibit tumor lung metastasis. RESULTS ABIs showed similar potency to MDR cells compared to matching parent cells. ABIs were identified to target tubulin on the colchicine binding site. After 31 days of treatment, ABI-288 dosed at 25 mg/kg inhibited melanoma tumor growth by 69%; dacarbazine at 60 mg/kg inhibited growth by 52%. ABI-274 dosed at 25 mg/kg showed better lung metastasis inhibition than dacarbazine at 60 mg/kg. CONCLUSIONS This new class of antimitotic compounds can overcome several clinically important drug resistant mechanisms in vitro and are effective in inhibiting melanoma lung metastasis in vivo, supporting their further development.

Abstract
Antagonists of the human histamine H(3) receptor (hH(3)R) often contain a second basic moiety, which is well known to boost affinity on this histamine receptor subtype. Here, we prepared compounds with acidic moieties of different pK(a) values to figure out that the hH(3)R tolerates these functionalities when added to a common pharmacophore blueprint. Depending on the acidic, electronic and steric features the designed ligands showed hH(3)R affinities in the nanomolar concentration range. Additionally, selected ligands were tested but failed as dual acting hH(3)R/hPPAR (human peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor) ligands.

Abstract
A series of (2RS,4R)-2-arylthiazolidine-4-carboxylic acid amide (ATCAA) was synthesized. Antiproliferative activity against melanoma and prostate cancer cells compared with control cells (fibroblast and RH7777, respectively) was evaluated. Compound 3id showed the best selectivity and growth-inhibition activity against three melanoma cell lines (B16-F1, A375, and WM-164). Compounds 15b and 3ac had good selectivity and potency against four prostate cancer cell lines (DU 145, PC-3, LNCaP, and PPC-1). The structure-activity relationship (SAR) of the side chain, the thiazolidine ring, and phenyl substituents is discussed. Cell cycle analysis showed that the percentage of cancer cells undergoing apoptosis (sub-G1 phase) increased after treatment with 1b and 3ad, which also strongly inhibited melanoma colony formation. In vivo studies on nude mice bearing A375 melanoma tumors showed that compound 1b inhibited tumor growth in a dose-dependent manner. At a dose of 10mg/kg, 1b significantly inhibited melanoma tumor growth and showed higher efficacy than did dacarbazine at 60mg/kg.

Abstract
We recently discovered a new class of thiazole analogs that are highly potent against melanoma cells. To expand the structure-activity relationship study and to explore potential new molecular scaffolds, we performed extensive ligand-based virtual screening against a compound library containing 342,910 small molecules. Two different approaches of virtual screening were carried out using the structure of our lead molecule: (1) connectivity-based search using Scitegic Pipeline Pilot from Accelerys and (2) molecular shape similarity search using Schrodinger software. Using a testing compound library, both approaches can rank similar compounds very high and rank dissimilar compounds very low, thus validating our screening methods. Structures identified from these searches were analyzed, and selected compounds were tested in vitro to assess their activity against melanoma cancer cell lines. Several molecules showed good anticancer activity. While none of the identified compounds showed better activity than our lead compound, they provided important insight into structural modifications for our lead compound and also provided novel platforms on which we can optimize new classes of anticancer compounds. One of the newly synthesized analogs based on this virtual screening has improved potency and selectivity against melanoma.
