Abstract
Tubulin-targeting agents attract undiminished attention as promising compounds for the design of anti-cancer drugs. Verubulin is a potent tubulin polymerization inhibitor, binding to colchicine-binding sites. In the present work, a series of verubulin analogues containing a cyclohexane or cycloheptane ring 1,2-annulated with pyrimidine moiety and various substituents in positions 2 and 4 of pyrimidine were obtained and their cytotoxicity towards cancer and non-cancerous cell lines was estimated. The investigated compounds revealed activity against various cancer cell lines with IC50 down to 1-4 nM. According to fluorescent microscopy data, compounds that showed cytotoxicity in the MTT test disrupt the normal cytoskeleton of the cell in a pattern similar to that for combretastatin A-4. The hit compound (N-(4-methoxyphenyl)-N,2-dimethyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydroquinazolin-4-amine) was encapsulated in biocompatible nanocontainers based on Ca2+ or Mg2+ cross-linked alginate and it was demonstrated that its cytotoxic activity was preserved after encapsulation.

Abstract
In this work, biocompatible and degradable biohybrid microgels based on chitosan and dextran were synthesized for drug delivery applications. Two kinds of bio-based building blocks, alkyne-modified chitosan and azide-modified dextran, were used to fabricate microgels via single-step cross-linking in water-in-oil emulsions. The cross-linking was initiated in the presence of copper(II) without the use of any extra cross-linkers. A series of pH-responsive and degradable microgels were successfully synthesized by varying the degree of cross-links. The microgels were characterized using 1H NMR and FTIR spectroscopy which proved the successful cross-linking of alkyne-modified chitosan and azide-modified dextran by copper(II)-mediated click reaction. The obtained microgels exhibit polyampholyte character and can carry positive or negative charges in aqueous solutions at different pH values. Biodegradability of microgels was shown at pH 9 or in the presence of Dextranase due to the hydrolysis of carbonate esters in the microgels or 1,6-α-glucosidic linkages in dextran structure, respectively. Furthermore, the microgels could encapsulate vancomycin hydrochloride (VM), an antibiotic, with a high loading of approximately 93.67% via electrostatic interactions. The payload could be released in the presence of Dextranase or under an alkaline environment, making the microgels potential candidates for drug delivery, such as colon-specific drug release.
