Eur J Med Chem 2020; 192:112192. [PMID: 32146374 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejmech.2020.112192] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/12/2020] [Revised: 02/13/2020] [Accepted: 02/25/2020] [Indexed: 12/20/2022]
Abstract
A new class of luminescent IrIII antitumor agents, namely, [Ir(CP1)(PY1)2] (Ir-1), [Ir(CP1)(PY2)2] (Ir-2), [Ir(CP1)(PY4)2] (Ir-3), [Ir(CP2)(PY1)2] (Ir-4), [Ir(CP2)(PY4)2] (Ir-5), [Ir(CP3)(PY1)2]⋅CH3OH (Ir-6), [Ir(CP4)(PY4)2]⋅CH3OH (Ir-7), [Ir(CP5)(PY2)2] (Ir-8), [Ir(CP5)(PY4)2]⋅CH3OH (Ir-9), [Ir(CP6)(PY1)2] (Ir-10), [Ir(CP6)(PY2)2]⋅CH3OH (Ir-11), [Ir(CP6)(PY3)2] (Ir-12), [Ir(CP6)(PY41)2] (Ir-13), and [Ir(CP7)(PY1)2] (Ir-14), supported by 8-oxychinolin derivatives and 1-phenylpyrazole ligands was prepared. Compared with SK-OV-3/DDP and HL-7702 cells, the Ir-1-Ir-14 compounds exhibited half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) values within the high nanomolar range (50 nM-10.99 μM) in HeLa cells. In addition, Ir-1 and Ir-3 accumulated and stained the mitochondrial inner membrane of HeLa cells with high selectivity and exhibited a high antineoplastic activity in the entire cervical HeLa cells, with IC50 values of 1.22 ± 0.36 μM and 0.05 ± 0.04 μM, respectively. This phenomenon induced mitochondrial dysfunction, suggesting that these cyclometalated IrIII complexes can be potentially used in biomedical imaging and Ir(III)-based anticancer drugs. Furthermore, the high cytotoxicity activity of Ir-3 is correlated with the 1-phenylpyrazole (H-PY4) secondary ligands in the luminescent IrIII antitumor complex.

Meng T, Qin QP, Chen ZL, Zou HH, Wang K, Liang FP. High in vitro and in vivo antitumor activities of Ln(III) complexes with mixed 5,7-dichloro-2-methyl-8-quinolinol and 4,4'-dimethyl-2,2'-bipyridyl chelating ligands. Eur J Med Chem 2019; 169:103-110. [PMID: 30870791 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejmech.2019.02.066] [Citation(s) in RCA: 29] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/07/2019] [Revised: 02/23/2019] [Accepted: 02/23/2019] [Indexed: 01/09/2023]
Abstract
Three novel Ln(III) complexes, namely, [Pm(dmbpy)(ClQ)2NO3] (1), [Yb(dmbpy)(ClQ)2NO3] (2), and [Lu(dmbpy)(ClQ)2NO3] (3), with mixed 5,7-dichloro-2-methyl-8-quinolinol (H-ClQ) and 4,4'-dimethyl-2,2'-bipyridyl (dmbpy) chelating ligands were first synthesized. The cytotoxic activity of Ln(III) complexes 1-3, H-ClQ, and dmbpy against a panel of human normal and cancer cell lines, namely, human non-small cell lung cancer cells (NCI-H460), human cervical adenocarcinoma cancer cells, human ovarian cancer cells, and human normal hepatocyte cells, were evaluated by using the 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) method. The three novel Ln(III) complexes showed a high in vitro antitumor activity toward the NCI-H460 with IC50 of 1.00 ± 0.25 nM for 1, 5.13 ± 0.44 μM for 2, and 11.87 ± 0.79 μM for 3, respectively. In addition, Ln(III) complexes 1 and 2 exerted their in vitro antitumor activity/mechanism mainly via the mitochondrial death pathway and caused a G2/M phase arrest in the following order: 1 > 2. An NCI-H460 tumor xenograft mouse model was used to evaluate the Pm(III) complex 1in vivo antitumor activity. Pm(III) complex 1 showed a high in vivo antitumor activity, and the tumor growth inhibition rate (IR) was 56.0% (p < 0.05). In summary, our study on Pm(III) complex 1 revealed promising results in in vitro and in vivo antitumor activity assays.

Abstract
Five new platinum(II) complexes bearing a eugenol and a quinoline derivative, namely [η2-4-allyl-2-methoxy-1-(propoxycarbonylmethoxy)benzene]-trans-dichlorido(quinoline-κN)platinum(II), [PtCl2(C15H20O4)(C9H7N)], (2), {η2-4-allyl-2-methoxy-1-[(propan-2-yloxy)carbonylmethoxy]benzene}-trans-dichlorido(quinoline-κN)platinum(II), [PtCl2(C15H19O4)(C9H7N)], (3), [η2-4-allyl-2-methoxy-1-(propoxycarbonylmethoxy)benzene]chlorido(quinolin-8-olato-κ2N,O)platinum(II), [Pt(C9H6NO)Cl(C15H20O4)], (4), {η2-4-allyl-2-methoxy-1-[(propan-2-yloxy)carbonylmethoxy]benzene}chlorido(quinolin-8-olato-κ2N,O)platinum(II), [Pt(C9H6NO)Cl(C15H20O4)], (5), and [η2-4-allyl-2-methoxy-1-(propoxycarbonylmethoxy)benzene]chlorido(quinolin-2-carboxylato-κ2N,O)platinum(II), [Pt(C10H6NO2)Cl(C15H20O4)], (6), have been synthesized and fully characterized spectroscopically. A single-crystal X-ray diffraction study was carried out for complexes (2) and (4)-(6). PrEug [or 4-allyl-2-methoxy-1-(propoxycarbonylmethoxy)benzene] in (2), (4) and (6), and iPrEug (the propan-2-yloxy analogue of PrEug) in (3) and (5) coordinate with PtII at the ethylenic double bond of the allyl group. In (2)-(6), the donor N atom of the amine group occupies a trans position with respect to the double bond. A comparison of the IC50 values of 0.38-29.23 µM for (2)-(6) with cisplatin, as well as other platinum(II) complexes, indicates an excellent in vitro cytotoxicity against the KB, LU, Hep-G2 and MCF-7 cancer cell lines, with the highest cytotoxic effect (IC50 = 0.38-1.99 µM) being for complexes (4) and (5) bearing a quinolin-8-olate ligand.
