Abstract
Tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase 1 (Tdp1) is an important DNA repair enzyme and one of the causes of tumor resistance to topoisomerase 1 inhibitors such as topotecan. Inhibitors of this Tdp1 in combination with topotecan may improve the effectiveness of therapy. In this work, we synthesized usnic acid derivatives, which are hybrids of its known derivatives: tumor sensitizers to topotecan. New compounds inhibit Tdp1 in the micromolar and submicromolar concentration range; some of them enhance the effect of topotecan on the metabolic activity of cells of various lines according to the MTT test. One of the new compounds (compound 7) not only sensitizes Krebs-2 and Lewis carcinomas of mice to the action of topotecan, but also normalizes the state of the peripheral blood of mice, which is disturbed in the presence of a tumor. Thus, the synthesized substances may be the prototype of a new class of additional therapy for cancer.

Abstract
We have previously shown that the Tdp1 inhibitor, enamine derivative of usnic acid, the agent OL9-116, enhances the antitumor activity of topotecan. In the present study, we developed and validated LC-MS/MS method for the quantification of OL9-116 in mouse whole blood and studied pharmacokinetics of the agent. The substance OL9-116 was shown to be stable in the whole blood in vitro. Sample preparation included two steps: mixing 10 µL of a blood sample with 10 µL of 0.2 M ZnSO4 aqueous solution, followed by protein precipitation with 100 µL of acetonitrile containing internal standard. Quantification of the compound was performed using SCIEX 6500 QTRAP mass spectrometer in MRM mode following chromatographic separation on a C8 reversed-phase column. The method was validated in terms of selectivity, linearity, accuracy, precision, recovery, and stability of the prepared sample. When the agent OL9-116 was administered intragastrically at a dose of 150 mg/kg, the maximum concentration in the blood (about 5000 ng/mL) was reached after 2-4 h followed by the distribution and elimination of the compound. A study of the antitumor activity of a combination of OL9-116 and topotecan against Lewis lung carcinoma revealed that administration of topotecan 3 h after OL9-116 resulted in the most pronounced antitumor effect compared to simultaneous or individual administration of both compounds.

Abstract
Tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase 1 and 2 (Tdp1 and Tdp2) are DNA repair enzymes that repair DNA damage caused by various agents, including anticancer drugs. Thus, these enzymes resist anticancer therapy and could be the reason for resistance to such widely used drugs such as topotecan and etoposide. In the present work, we found compounds capable of inhibiting both enzymes among derivatives of (-)-usnic acid. Both (+)- and (-)-enantiomers of compounds act equally effectively against Tdp1 with IC50 values in the range of 0.02-0.2 μM; only (-)-enantiomers inhibited Tdp2 with IC50 values in the range of 6-9 μM. Surprisingly, the compounds protect HEK293FT wild type cells from the cytotoxic effect of etoposide (CC50 3.0-3.9 μM in the presence of compounds and 2.4 μM the presence of DMSO) but potentiate it against Tdp2 knockout cells (CC50 1.2-1.6 μM in the presence of compounds against 2.3 μM in the presence of DMSO). We assume that the sensitizing effect of the compounds in the absence of Tdp2 is associated with the effective inhibition of Tdp1, which could take over the functions of Tdp2.

Abstract
(+)-Usnic acid (UA), a natural dibenzofuran derivative, abundantly produced by lichens and possess wide number of biomedical applications including antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidant and anticancer activities. In the present study, as series of usnic acid derivatives (3a-3i) were synthesised using Mannich reaction assessed for their antioxidant, α-glucosidase, and anticancer activities. The in vitro antioxidant activity showed that compound 3d displayed potent antioxidant activity by scavenging the activities of DPPH and ABTS+. The compounds 3d and 3e showed potent cytotoxic activity against HepG2 cancer cells by arresting the cell cycle at S phase and regulating the Bax/BcL2 expression and subsequently induce the apoptosis. Overall, the results clearly indicated that (+)-usnic acid derivatives bearing secondary amines are useful scaffolds for the development of drug candidates for treatment of oxidative stress mediated cancer and metabolic disorders.

Abstract
Tyrosyl-DNA-phosphodiesterase 1 (TDP1) is an important enzyme in the DNA repair system. The ability of the enzyme to repair DNA damage induced by a topoisomerase 1 poison such as the anticancer drug topotecan makes TDP1 a promising target for complex antitumor therapy. In this work, a set of new 5-hydroxycoumarin derivatives containing monoterpene moieties was synthesized. It was shown that most of the conjugates synthesized demonstrated high inhibitory properties against TDP1 with an IC50 in low micromolar or nanomolar ranges. Geraniol derivative 33a was the most potent inhibitor with IC50 130 nM. Docking the ligands to TDP1 predicted a good fit with the catalytic pocket blocking access to it. The conjugates used in non-toxic concentration increased cytotoxicity of topotecan against HeLa cancer cell line but not against conditionally normal HEK 293A cells. Thus, a new structural series of TDP1 inhibitors, which are able to sensitize cancer cells to the topotecan cytotoxic effect has been discovered.

Abstract
Herein, a series of 11- or 12-substituted benzophenanthridinone derivatives was designed and synthesized for the discovery of dual topoisomerase IB (TOP1) and tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase 1 (TDP1) inhibitors. Enzyme-based assays indicated that two compounds 12 and 38 showed high TOP1 inhibitory potency (+++), and four compounds 35, 37, 39 and 43 showed good TDP1 inhibition with IC50 values ranging from 10 to 18 μM. 38 could induce cellular TOP1cc formation, resulting in the highest cytotoxicity against HCT-116 cells (0.25 μM). The most potent TDP1 inhibitor 43 (10 μM) could induce cellular TDP1cc formation and enhance topotecan-induced DNA damage and showed strong synergistic cytotoxicity with topotecan in both MCF-7 and MCF-7/TDP1 cells.

Abstract
Tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase 1 (TDP1) is an important repair enzyme that removes various covalent adducts from the 3' end of DNA. Particularly, covalent complexes of topoisomerase 1 (TOP1) with DNA stabilized by DNA damage or by various chemical agents are an examples of such adducts. Anticancer drugs such as the TOP1 poisons topotecan and irinotecan are responsible for the stabilization of these complexes. TDP1 neutralizes the effect of these anticancer drugs, eliminating the DNA adducts. Therefore, the inhibition of TDP1 can sensitize tumor cells to the action of TOP1 poisons. This review contains information about methods for determining the TDP1 activity, as well as describing the inhibitors of these enzyme derivatives of natural biologically active substances, such as aminoglycosides, nucleosides, polyphenolic compounds, and terpenoids. Data on the efficiency of combined inhibition of TOP1 and TDP1 in vitro and in vivo are presented.

Abstract
Topoisomerase 1 (TOP1) is an enzyme that regulates DNA topology and is essential for replication, recombination, and other processes. The normal TOP1 catalytic cycle involves the formation of a short-lived covalent complex with the 3' end of DNA (TOP1 cleavage complex, TOP1cc), which can be stabilized, resulting in cell death. This fact substantiates the effectiveness of anticancer drugs-TOP1 poisons, such as topotecan, that block the relegation of DNA and fix TOP1cc. Tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase 1 (TDP1) is able to eliminate TOP1cc. Thus, TDP1 interferes with the action of topotecan. Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP1) is a key regulator of many processes in the cell, such as maintaining the integrity of the genome, regulation of the cell cycle, cell death, and others. PARP1 also controls the repair of TOP1cc. We performed a transcriptomic analysis of wild type and PARP1 knockout HEK293A cells treated with topotecan and TDP1 inhibitor OL9-119 alone and in combination. The largest number of differentially expressed genes (DEGs, about 4000 both up- and down-regulated genes) was found in knockout cells. Topotecan and OL9-119 treatment elicited significantly fewer DEGs in WT cells and negligible DEGs in PARP1-KO cells. A significant part of the changes caused by PARP1-KO affected the synthesis and processing of proteins. Differences under the action of treatment with TOP1 or TDP1 inhibitors alone were found in the signaling pathways for the development of cancer, DNA repair, and the proteasome. The drug combination resulted in DEGs in the ribosome, proteasome, spliceosome, and oxidative phosphorylation pathways.

Abstract
To date, various strategies have been proposed to increase the efficiency of cancer therapy. It is known that the action of DNA repair system can determine the resistance of cancer cells to DNA-damaging chemotherapy and radiotherapy, and one of these ways to increase therapeutic efficiency is the search for inhibitors of enzymes of the DNA repair system. Inhibition of the DNA repair enzyme tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase1 (Tdp1) leads to an increase in the effectiveness of the topoisomerase 1 (Top1) inhibitor, the anticancer drug topotecan. Covalent complexes Top1-DNA, which are normally short-lived and are not a threat to the cell, are stabilized under the influence of topotecan and lead to cell death. Tdp1 eliminates such stabilized complexes and thus weaken the effect of topotecan therapy. We have previously shown that the use of the usnic acid hydrazonothiazole derivative OL9-119 in combination with topotecan increased the antitumor and antimetastatic efficacy of the latter in a mouse model of Lewis lung carcinoma. In this work, it was shown that the combined use of topotecan and Tdp1 inhibitor, the hydrazonothiazole derivative of usnic acid OL9-119, leads to an increase in the DNA-damaging effect of topotecan which is used in the clinic for the treatment of cancer. The study of the proapoptotic effect of the compound OL9-119 showed that the compound itself does not induce apoptosis, but increases the proapoptotic effect of topotecan. The results of the study could be used to improve the effectiveness of anticancer therapy and/or to reduce the therapeutic dose of topotecan and, therefore, the severity of side effects.

Abstract
The use of cancer chemotherapy sensitizers is a promising approach to induce the effect of clinically used anticancer treatments. One of the interesting targets is Tyrosyl-DNA Phosphodiesterase 1 (Tdp1), a DNA-repair enzyme, that may prevent the action of clinical Topoisomerase 1 (Top1) inhibitors, such as topotecan (Tpc). Tdp1 eliminates covalent Top1-DNA (Top1c) complexes that appear under the action of topotecan and determines the cytotoxic effect of this drug. We hypothesize that Tdp1 inhibition would sensitize cells towards the effect of Tpc. Herein, we report the synthesis and study of lipophilic derivatives of purine nucleosides that efficiently suppress Tdp1 activity, with IC50 values in the 0.3-22.0 μM range. We also showed that this compound class can enhance DNA damage induced by topotecan in vitro by Comet assay on human cell lines HeLa and potentiate the antitumor effect of topotecan in vivo on a mice ascitic Krebs-2 carcinoma model. Thereby, this type of compound may be useful to develop drugs, that sensitize the effect of topotecan and reduce the required dose and, as a result, side effects.

Abstract
Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women, responsible for over half a million deaths in 2020. Almost 75% of FDA-approved drugs are mainly nitrogen- and sulfur-containing heterocyclic compounds, implying the importance of such compounds in drug discovery. Among heterocycles, thiazole-based heterocyclic compounds have demonstrated a broad range of pharmacological activities. In the present study, a novel set of 1,3-thiazole derivatives was designed and synthesized based on the coupling of acetophenone derivatives, and phenacyl bromide was substituted as a key reaction step. The activity of synthesized compounds was screened against the proliferation of two breast cancer cell lines (MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231). Almost all compounds exhibited a considerable antiproliferative activity toward the breast cancer cells as compared to staurosporine, with no significant cytotoxicity toward the epithelial cells. Among the synthesized compounds, compound 4 exhibited the most potent antiproliferative activity, with an IC50 of 5.73 and 12.15 µM toward MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 cells, respectively, compared to staurosporine (IC50 = 6.77 and 7.03 µM, respectively). Exploring the mechanistic insights responsible for the antiproliferative activity of compound 4 revealed that compound 4 possesses a significant inhibitory activity toward the vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-2 (VEGFR-2) with (IC50 = 0.093 µM) compared to Sorafenib (IC50 = 0.059 µM). Further, compound 4 showed the ability to induce programmed cell death by triggering apoptosis and necrosis in MCF-7 cells and to induce cell cycle arrest on MCF-7 cells at the G1 stage while decreasing the cellular population in the G2/M phase. Finally, detailed in silico molecular docking studies affirmed that this class of compounds possesses a considerable binding affinity toward VEGFR2 proteins. Overall, these results indicate that compound 4 could be a promising lead compound for developing potent anti-breast cancer compounds.

Abstract
Tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase 1 (TDP1) is an enzyme that repairs DNA lesions caused by the trapping of DNA topoisomerase IB (TOP1)-DNA break-associated crosslinks. TDP1 inhibitors have synergistic effect with TOP1 inhibitors in cancer cells and can overcome cancer cell resistance to TOP1 inhibitors. Here, we report the synthesis of 11-aminoalkoxy substituted benzophenanthridine derivatives as selective TDP1 inhibitors and show that six compounds 14, 16, 18, 20, 25 and 27 exhibit high TDP1 inhibition potency. The most potent TDP1 inhibitor 14 (IC50 = 1.7 ± 0.24 μM) induces cellular TDP1cc formation and shows synergistic effect with topotecan in four human cancer cell lines MCF-7, A549, H460 and HepG2.

Abstract
We studied the effect of a new targeted drug Pefagtal that represents a conjugate in which the MS2 phage filled with a substance toxic to cells (thallium salts) is covalently linked to peptides containing the RGD motif. The antitumor and pronounced antimetastatic effects of Pefagtal were demonstrated on transplanted mouse tumors differing in histological type and status of metastasis: Krebs-2 ascites adenocarcinoma of the mammary gland, Lewis lung adenocarcinoma, hepatoma-29, and lung adenocarcinoma. It is assumed that the RGD motif mediates primary binding of the construct to αvβ3 and αvβ5 integrins that are predominantly overexpressed in the endothelial cells of tumor blood vessels and in tumor and metastatic cells.

Abstract
Lichen secondary metabolites are well explored medicinal agents with diverse pharmacological properties. One of the important antibiotic lichen secondary metabolites is usnic acid. Its diverse medicinal profiles prompted us to explore it as a potential antitubercular molecule. Towards this direction, continuing our efforts on the discovery and development of new analogs with potent antitubercular properties we designed, synthesized, and evaluated a set of 37 usnic acid enaminone-coupled aryl-n-hexanamides (3-39). The study yielded a 3,4-dimethoxyphenyl compound (13, 5.3 µM) as the most active anti-TB molecule. The docking studies were performed on 7 different enzymes to better understand the binding modes, where it was observed that compound 13 bound strongly with glucose dehydrogenase (Gscore: - 9.03). Further antibacterial investigations revealed compound 2 with potent inhibition on Salmonella typhi and Bacillus subtilis (MIC 3 µM) and MIC values of 7 and 14 µM on Streptococcus mutans and Escherichia coli respectively. Compound 19 (3-F-5-CF3-phenyl) displayed encouraging antibacterial profiles against E. coli, S. typhi and S. mutans with MIC values of 10 µM respectively. Interestingly, compound 20 (2,6-difluorophenyl) also displayed good antibacterial activity against E. coli with an MIC value of 6 µM. These encouraging pharmacological results will help for better designing and developing usnic acid-based semi-synthetic derivatives as potential antimicrobial agents. A set of 37 new usnic acid enaminone-coupled aryl-n-hexanamides were synthesized and evaluated as potential antimicrobial agents. Compound 13 was identified as the most active antitubercular molecule. 13 was further docked against 7 different enzymes of tuberculosis. The molecule displayed maximum binding energy with the enzyme Glucose dehydrogenase (Gscore: - 9.03), indicating that these hexanamides possibly act by inhibiting the glucose metabolic pathway of the bacterium. Surprisingly, the intermediate hexanoic acid 2 was identified as potent antibacterial agent, acting on both gram-positive and gram-negative bacterial strains (3-14 μM). The active compounds may be subjected to structural iterations to develop further leads.

Abstract
Inhibiting tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase 1 (TDP1) is a promising strategy for increasing the effectiveness of existing antitumor therapy since it can remove the DNA lesions caused by anticancer drugs, which form covalent complexes with topoisomerase 1 (TOP1). Here, new adamantane-monoterpene conjugates with a 1,2,4-triazole or 1,3,4-thiadiazole linker core were synthesized, where (+)-and (-)-campholenic and (+)-camphor derivatives were used as monoterpene fragments. The campholenic derivatives 14a-14b and 15a-b showed activity against TDP1 at a low micromolar range with IC50 ~5-6 μM, whereas camphor-containing compounds 16 and 17 were ineffective. Surprisingly, all the compounds synthesized demonstrated a clear synergy with topotecan, a TOP1 poison, regardless of their ability to inhibit TDP1. These findings imply that different pathways of enhancing topotecan toxicity other than the inhibition of TDP1 can be realized.

A series of deoxycholic acid (DCA) amides containing benzyl ether groups on the steroid core were tested against the tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase 1 (TDP1) and 2 (TDP2) enzymes. In addition, 1,2,4- and 1,3,4-oxadiazole derivatives were synthesized to study the linker influence between a para-bromophenyl moiety and the steroid scaffold. The DCA derivatives demonstrated promising inhibitory activity against TDP1 with IC50 in the submicromolar range. Furthermore, the amides and the 1,3,4-oxadiazole derivatives inhibited the TDP2 enzyme but at substantially higher concentration. Tryptamide 5 and para-bromoanilide 8 derivatives containing benzyloxy substituent at the C-3 position and non-substituted hydroxy group at C-12 on the DCA scaffold inhibited both TDP1 and TDP2 as well as enhanced the cytotoxicity of topotecan in non-toxic concentration in vitro. According to molecular modeling, ligand 5 is anchored into the catalytic pocket of TDP1 by one hydrogen bond to the backbone of Gly458 as well as by π–π stacking between the indolyl rings of the ligand and Tyr590, resulting in excellent activity. It can therefore be concluded that these derivatives contribute to the development of specific TDP1 and TDP2 inhibitors for adjuvant therapy against cancer in combination with topoisomerase poisons.

Abstract
Azaadamantanes are nitrogen-containing analogs of adamantane, which contain one or more nitrogen atoms instead of carbon atoms. This substitution leads to several specific chemical and physical properties. The azaadamantane derivatives have less lipophilicity compared to their adamantane analogs, which affects both their interaction with biological targets and bioavailability. The significant increase in the number of publications during the last decade (2009-2020) concerning the study of reactivity and biological activity of azaadamantanes and their derivatives indicates a great theoretical and practical interest in these compounds. Compounds with pronounced biological activity have been already discovered among azaadamantane derivatives. The review is devoted to the biological activity of azaadamantanes and their derivatives. It presents the main methods for the synthesis of di- and triazaadamantanes and summarizes the accumulated data on studying the biological activity of these compounds. The prospects for the use of azaadamantanes in medical chemistry and pharmacology are discussed.

Abstract
Tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase 1 (TDP1) catalyzes the cleavage of the phosphodiester bond between the tyrosine residue of topoisomerase 1 (TOP1) and the 3' phosphate of DNA in the single-strand break generated by TOP1. TDP1 promotes the cleavage of the stable DNA-TOP1 complexes with the TOP1 inhibitor topotecan, which is a clinically used anticancer drug. This article reports the synthesis and study of usnic acid thioether and sulfoxide derivatives that efficiently suppress TDP1 activity, with IC50 values in the 1.4-25.2 μM range. The structure of the heterocyclic substituent introduced into the dibenzofuran core affects the TDP1 inhibitory efficiency of the compounds. A five-membered heterocyclic fragment was shown to be most pharmacophoric among the others. Sulfoxide derivatives were less cytotoxic than their thioester analogs. We observed an uncompetitive type of inhibition for the four most effective inhibitors of TDP1. The anticancer effect of TOP1 inhibitors can be enhanced by the simultaneous inhibition of PARP1, TDP1, and TDP2. Some of the compounds inhibited not only TDP1 but also TDP2 and/or PARP1, but at significantly higher concentration ranges than TDP1. Leader compound 10a showed promising synergy on HeLa cells in conjunction with the TOP1 inhibitor topotecan.

Abstract
Usnic acid is the best-studied lichen metabolite, presenting several biological activities, such as antibacterial, immunostimulating, antiviral, antifungal, anti-inflammatory, and antiparasitic agents; despite these relevant properties, it is a hydrophobic and toxic molecule. In this context, scientific research has driven the development of innovative alternatives, considering usnic acid as a source of raw material in obtaining new molecules, allowing structural modifications (syntheses) from it. The purpose is to optimize biological activities and toxicity, with less concentration and/or response time. This work presents a literature review with an analogy of the hydrophobic molecule of usnic acid with its hydrophilic derivative of potassium usnate, emphasizing the elucidation and structural characteristics, biological activities, and toxicological aspects of both molecules, and the advantages of using the promising derivative hydrophilic in different in vitro and in vivo assays when compared to usnic acid.

Abstract
Schistosomiasis is a public health problem in many developing countries. The mollusc Biomphalaria glabrata is the most important vector of Schistosoma mansoni in South America. The population control of this vector to prevent the spread of schistosomiasis is currently done with the application of highly toxic molluscicide to the environment. The screening of substances in sublethal concentrations that have deleterious effects on physiological parameters is very relevant for the control of schistosomiasis, since the effectiveness of disease prevention increases if it acts on population control of the vector and on reproduction and elimination in S. mansoni cercariae. The objective of this study was to evaluate the reproductive parameters (fecundity and fertility), intra-mollusk effect (sporocysts I (72 h) and II (14 days after)) on the development of cercariae of S. mansoni and the immune cell profile of B. glabrata exposed to sublethal concentrations (LC25 - 0.5 µg/mL and LC50 - 0.92 µg/mL) of the usnic acid potassium salt (potassium usnate). LC 25 and LC 50 significantly reduced (p < 0.05) the fecundity of B. glabrata when treated infected and/or not exposed to infection, while unviable embryos were not observed in sporocyst stage I, being only significant (p < 0.05) for mollusks infected and treated with LC50 on sporocyst II. LC25 and LC50 of the potassium usnate caused significant reductions (p < 0.05) in the production and cercarial shedding when evaluated on sporocysts I and II. In addition, the mortality of infected and treated B. glabrata in the sporocyst II phase was quite marked after the 9th week of infection. Regarding the immunological cell profile of uninfected B. glabrata, both concentrations led to immunomodulatory responses, with significant morphological changes predominant of hemocytes that entered programmed cell death (apoptosis). It was concluded that the application of LC25 and LC50 from the potassium usnate could be useful in the population control of B. glabrata, since it interferes both in their biology and physiology and in the reproduction of the infectious agent of schistosomiasis mansoni.

Abstract
Tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase 1 (Tdp1) is a repair enzyme for 3'-end DNA lesions, predominantly stalled DNA-topoisomerase 1 (Top1) cleavage complexes. Tdp1 is a promising target for anticancer therapy based on DNA damage caused by Top1 poisoning. Earlier, we have reported about usnic acid enamine derivatives that are Tdp1 inhibitors sensitizing tumor cells to the action of Top1 poison (Zakharenko in J Nat Prod 79:2961-2967, 2016). In the present work, we showed a sensitizing effect of an enamine derivative of usnic acid (when administered intragastrically) on Lewis lung carcinoma in mice in combination with topotecan (TPT, Top1 poison used in the clinic). In the presence of the usnic acid derivative, both the volume of the primary tumor and the number of metastases significantly diminished. The absence of acute toxicity of this compound was demonstrated, as was the importance of the method of its administration for the manifestation of the sensitizing properties.

Abstract
Usnic acid (UA) is a secondary metabolite of lichens that exhibits a wide range of biological activities. Previously, we found that UA derivatives are effective inhibitors of tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase 1 (TDP1). It can remove covalent complex DNA-topoisomerase 1 (TOP1) stabilized by the TOP1 inhibitor topotecan, neutralizing the effect of the drugs. TDP1 removes damage at the 3′ end of DNA caused by other anticancer agents. Thus, TDP1 is a promising therapeutic target for the development of drug combinations with topotecan, as well as other drugs for cancer treatment. Ten new UA enamino derivatives with variation in the terpene fragment and substituent of the UA backbone were synthesized and tested as TDP1 inhibitors. Four compounds, 11a-d, had IC50 values in the 0.23–0.40 μM range. Molecular modelling showed that 11a-d, with relatively short aliphatic chains, fit to the important binding domains. The intrinsic cytotoxicity of 11a-d was tested on two human cell lines. The compounds had low cytotoxicity with CC50 ≥ 60 μM for both cell lines. 11a and 11c had high inhibition efficacy and low cytotoxicity, and they enhanced topotecan’s cytotoxicity in cancerous HeLa cells but reduced it in the non-cancerous HEK293A cells. This “protective” effect from topotecan on non-cancerous cells requires further investigation.

Abstract
Cancer chemotherapy sensitizers hold the key to maximizing the potential of standard anticancer treatments. We have a long-standing interest in developing and validating inhibitors of the DNA repair enzyme tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase 1 (TDP1) as chemosensitizers for topoisomerase I poisons such as topotecan. Herein, by using thieno[2,3-b]pyridines, a class of TDP1 inhibitors, we showed that the inhibition of TDP1 can restore sensitivity to topotecan, results that are supported by TDP1 knockout cell experiments using CRISPR/Cas9. However, we also found that the restored sensitivity towards topoisomerase I inhibitors is likely regulated by multiple complementary DNA repair pathways. Our results showed that one of these pathways is likely modulated by PARP1, although it is also possible that other redundant and partially overlapping pathways may be involved in the DNA repair process. Our work thus raises the prospect of targeting multiple DNA repair pathways to increase the sensitivity to topoisomerase I inhibitors.

Abstract
As a recently discovered DNA repair enzyme, tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase 1 (TDP1) removes topoisomerase IB (TOP1)-mediated DNA protein cross-links. Inhibiting TDP1 can potentiate the cytotoxicity of TOP1 inhibitors and overcome cancer cell resistance to TOP1 inhibitors. On the basis of our previous study, herein we report the synthesis of benzophenanthridinone derivatives as TOP1 and TDP1 inhibitors. Seven compounds (C2, C4, C5, C7, C8, C12, and C14) showed a robust TOP1 inhibitory activity (+++ or ++++), and four compounds (A13, C12, C13, and C26) showed a TDP1 inhibition (half-maximal inhibitory concentration values of 15 or 19 μM). We also show that the dual TOP1 and TDP1 inhibitor C12 induces both cellular TOP1cc, TDP1cc formation and DNA damage, resulting in cancer cell apoptosis at a sub-micromolar concentration. In addition, C12 showed an enhanced activity in drug-resistant MCF-7/TDP1 cancer cells and was synergistic with topotecan in both MCF-7 and MCF-7/TDP1 cells.

Abstract
A new type of berberine derivatives was obtained by the reaction of berberrubine with aliphatic sulfonyl chlorides. The new polycyclic compounds have a sultone ring condensed to C and D rings of a protoberberine core. The reaction conditions were developed to facilitate the formation of sultones with high yields without by-product formation. Thus, it was shown that the order of addition of reagents affects the composition of the reaction products: when sulfochlorides are added to berberrubine, their corresponding 9-O-sulfonates are predominantly formed; when berberrubine is added to pre-generated sulfenes, sultones are the only products. The reaction was shown to proceed stereo-selectively and the cycle configuration was confirmed by 2D NMR spectroscopy. The inhibitory activity of the synthesized sultones and their 12-brominated analogs against the DNA-repair enzyme tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase 1 (Tdp1), an important target for a potential antitumor therapy, was studied. All derivatives were active in the micromolar and submicromolar range, in contrast to the acyclic analogs and 9-O-sulfonates, which were inactive. The significance of the sultone cycle and bromine substituent in binding with the enzyme was confirmed using molecular modeling. The active inhibitors are mostly non-toxic to the HeLa cancer cell line, and several ligands show synergy with topotecan, a topoisomerase 1 poison in clinical use. Thus, novel berberine derivatives can be considered as candidates for adjuvant therapy against cancer.

Abstract
Tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase 1 (TDP1) is a member of the phospholipase D family of enzymes, which catalyzes the removal of both 3′- and 5′-DNA phosphodiester adducts. Importantly, it is capable of reducing the anticancer effects of type I topoisomerase (TOP1) inhibitors by repairing the stalled covalent complexes of TOP1 with DNA. It achieves this by promoting the hydrolysis of the phosphodiester bond between the Y723 residue of human TOP1 and the 3′-phosphate of its DNA substrate. Blocking TDP1 function is an attractive means of enhancing the efficacy of TOP1 inhibitors and overcoming drug resistance. Previously, we reported the use of an X-ray crystallographic screen of more than 600 fragments to identify small molecule variations on phthalic acid and hydroxyquinoline motifs that bind within the TDP1 catalytic pocket. Yet, the majority of these compounds showed limited (millimolar) TDP1 inhibitory potencies. We now report examining a 21 000-member library of drug-like Small Molecules in Microarray (SMM) format for their ability to bind Alexa Fluor 647 (AF647)-labeled TDP1. The screen identified structurally similar N,2-diphenylimidazo[1,2-a]pyrazin-3-amines as TDP1 binders and catalytic inhibitors. We then explored the core heterocycle skeleton using one-pot Groebke–Blackburn–Bienayme multicomponent reactions and arrived at analogs having higher inhibitory potencies. Solving TDP1 co-crystal structures of a subset of compounds showed their binding at the TDP1 catalytic site, while mimicking substrate interactions. Although our original fragment screen differed significantly from the current microarray protocol, both methods identified ligand–protein interactions containing highly similar elements. Importantly inhibitors identified through the SMM approach show competitive inhibition against TDP1 and access the catalytic phosphate-binding pocket, while simultaneously providing extensions into both the substrate DNA and peptide-binding channels. As such, they represent a platform for further elaboration of trivalent ligands, that could serve as a new genre of potent TDP1 inhibitors. Using small molecule microarray TDP1 inhibitors have been identified that bind in a trivalent mode.![]()

Abstract
During the years, many usnic acid (UA) conjugates have been synthesized to obtain potent endowed with biological properties. Since (S)-UA is less abundant in nature than (R)-enantiomer, it is difficult to source, thus precluding a deeper investigation. Among the lichens producing UA, Cladonia foliacea is a valuable (S)-UA source. In the present work, we report on a rapid HPLC-UV/PAD-CD protocol suitable for the analysis and the identification of the main secondary metabolites present in C. foliacea extract. Best results were achieved using XBridge Phenyl column and acetonitrile and water, which were both added with formic acid as mobile phase in gradient elution. By combining analytical, spectroscopical, and chiroptical analysis, the most abundant analyte was unambiguously identified as (S)-UA. Accordingly, a versatile microwave-assisted extractive (MAE) protocol, assisted by a design of experiment (DoE), to quantitatively recover (S)-UA was set up. The best result in terms of UA extraction yield was obtained using ethanol and heating at 80 °C under microwave irradiation for 5 min. Starting from 100 g of dried C. foliacea, 420 mg of (S)-UA were achieved. Thus, our extraction method resulted in a suitable protocol to produce (S)-UA from C. foliacea for biological and pharmaceutical investigation or commercial purposes.

Abstract
Para-Bromoanilides of deoxycholic acid with various functional groups on the steroid scaffold were designed as promising tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase 1 (Tdp1) inhibitors. Tdp1 is a DNA repair enzyme, involved in removing DNA damage caused by topoisomerase I poisons; an important class of anticancer drugs. Thus, reducing the activity of Tdp1 can increase the efficacy of anticancer drugs in current use. Inhibitory activity in the low micromolar and submicromolar concentrations was observed with 3,12-dimethoxy para-bromoanilide 17 being the most active with an IC50 value of 0.27 μM. The activity of N-methyl para-bromoanilides was 3-4.8 times lower than of the corresponding para-bromoanilides. Increased potency of the ligands was seen with higher molecular weight and log P values. The ligands were evaluated for their cytotoxic potential in a panel of tumor cell lines; all were nontoxic to the A549 pulmonary adenocarcinoma cell line. However, derivatives containing a hydroxyl group at the 12th position were more toxic than their 12-hydroxyl group counterparts (acetoxy-, oxo- and methoxy- group) against HCT-116 human colon and HepG2 hepatocellular carcinomas. In addition, an N-methyl substitution led to an increase in toxicity for the HCT-116 and HepG2 cell lines. The excellent activity as well as low cytotoxicity, derivative 17 can be considered as a lead compound for further development.

Abstract
A series of berberine and tetrahydroberberine sulfonate derivatives were prepared and tested against the tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase 1 (Tdp1) DNA-repair enzyme. The berberine derivatives inhibit the Tdp1 enzyme in the low micromolar range; this is the first reported berberine based Tdp1 inhibitor. A structure–activity relationship analysis revealed the importance of bromine substitution in the 12-position on the tetrahydroberberine scaffold. Furthermore, it was shown that the addition of a sulfonate group containing a polyfluoroaromatic moiety at position 9 leads to increased potency, while most of the derivatives containing an alkyl fragment at the same position were not active. According to the molecular modeling, the bromine atom in position 12 forms a hydrogen bond to histidine 493, a key catalytic residue. The cytotoxic effect of topotecan, a clinically important topoisomerase 1 inhibitor, was doubled in the cervical cancer HeLa cell line by derivatives 11g and 12g; both displayed low toxicity without topotecan. Derivatives 11g and 12g can therefore be used for further development to sensitize the action of clinically relevant Topo1 inhibitors.

Abstract
Hybrid molecules created from different pharmacophores of natural and synthetic equivalents are successfully used in pharmaceutical practice. One promising target for anticancer therapy is tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase 1 (Tdp1) because it can repair DNA lesions caused by DNA-topoisomerase 1 (Top1) inhibitors, resulting in drug resistance. In this study, new hybrid compounds were synthesized by combining the pharmacophoric moiety of a set of natural compounds with inhibitory properties against Tdp1, particularly, phenolic usnic acid and a set of different monoterpenoid fragments. These fragments were connected through a hydrazinothiazole linker. The inhibitory properties of the new compounds mainly depended on the structure of the terpenoid moieties. The two most potent compounds, 9a and 9b, were synthesized from citral and citronellal, which contain acyclic fragments with IC50 values in the range of 10-16 nM. Some synthesized derivatives showed low cytotoxicity against HeLa cells and increased the effect of the Top1 inhibitor topotecan in vitro by three to seven times. These derivatives may be considered as potential agents for the development of anticancer therapies when combined with Top1 inhibitors.

Abstract
Two novel structural types of tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase 1 (TDP1) inhibitors with hexahydroisobenzofuran 11 and 3-oxabicyclo [3.3.1]nonane 12 scaffolds were discovered. These monoterpene-derived compounds were synthesized through preliminary isomerization of (+)-3-carene to (+)-2-carene followed by reaction with heteroaromatic aldehydes. All the compounds inhibit the TDP1 enzyme at micro- and submicromolar levels, with the most potent compound having an IC50 value of 0.65 μM. TDP1 is an important DNA repair enzyme and a promising target for the development of new chemosensitizing agents. A panel of isogenic clones of the HEK293FT cell line knockout for the TDP1 gene was created using the CRISPR-Cas9 system. Cytotoxic effects of topotecan (Tpc) and non-cytotoxic compounds of the new structures were investigated separately and jointly in the TDP1 gene knockout cells. For two TDP1 inhibitors, 11h and 12k, a synergistic effect was observed with Tpc in the HEK293FT cells but was not found in TDP1 −/− cells. Thus, it is likely that the synergistic effect is caused by inhibition of TDP1. Synergy was also found for 11h in other cancer cell lines. Thus, sensitizing cancer cells using a non-cytotoxic drug can enhance the efficacy of currently used pharmaceuticals and, concomitantly, reduce toxic side effects.

Abstract
(+)-Usnic acid, a product of secondary metabolism in lichens, has displayed a broad range of biological properties such as antitumor, antimicrobial, antiviral, anti-inflammatory, and insecticidal activities. Interested by these pharmacological activities and to tap into its potential, we herein present the synthesis and biological evaluation of new usnic acid enaminone-conjugated 1,2,3-triazoles 10-44 as antimycobacterial agents. (+)-Usnic acid was condensed with propargyl amine to give usnic acid enaminone 8 with a terminal ethynyl moiety. It was further reacted with various azides A1-A35 under copper catalysis to give triazoles 10-44 in good yields. Among the synthesized compounds, saccharin derivative 36 proved to be the most active analogue, inhibiting Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) at an MIC value of 2.5 μM. Analogues 16 and 27, with 3,4-difluorophenacyl and 2-acylnaphthalene units, respectively, inhibited Mtb at MIC values of 5.4 and 5.3 μM, respectively. Among the tested Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, the new derivatives were active on Bacillus subtilis, with compounds 18 [3-(trifluoromethyl)phenacyl] and 29 (N-acylmorpholinyl) showing inhibitory concentrations of 41 and 90.7 μM, respectively, while they were inactive on the other tested bacterial strains. Overall, the study presented here is useful for converting natural (+)-usnic acid into antitubercular and antibacterial agents via incorporation of enaminone and 1,2,3-triazole functionalities.

Abstract
Tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase 1 (Tdp1) is an important DNA repair enzyme in humans, and a current and promising inhibition target for the development of new chemosensitizing agents due to its ability to remove DNA damage caused by topoisomerase 1 (Top1) poisons such as topotecan and irinotecan. Herein, we report our work on the synthesis and characterization of new Tdp1 inhibitors that combine the arylcoumarin (neoflavonoid) and monoterpenoid moieties. Our results showed that they are potent Tdp1 inhibitors with IC50 values in the submicromolar range. In vivo experiments with mice revealed that compound 3ba (IC50 0.62 µM) induced a significant increase in the antitumor effect of topotecan on the Krebs-2 ascites tumor model. Our results further strengthen the argument that Tdp1 is a druggable target with the potential to be developed into a clinically-potent adjunct therapy in conjunction with Top1 poisons.

Abstract
Our genomic DNA is under constant assault from endogenous and exogenous sources, which needs to be resolved to maintain cellular homeostasis. The eukaryotic DNA repair enzyme Tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase I (Tdp1) catalyzes the hydrolysis of phosphodiester bonds that covalently link adducts to DNA-ends. Tdp1 utilizes two catalytic histidines to resolve a growing list of DNA-adducts. These DNA-adducts can be divided into two groups: small adducts, including oxidized nucleotides, RNA, and non-canonical nucleoside analogs, and large adducts, such as (drug-stabilized) topoisomerase- DNA covalent complexes or failed Schiff base reactions as occur between PARP1 and DNA. Many Tdp1 substrates are generated by chemotherapeutics linking Tdp1 to cancer drug resistance, making a compelling argument to develop small molecules that target Tdp1 as potential novel therapeutic agents. Tdp1's unique catalytic cycle, which is centered on the formation of Tdp1-DNA covalent reaction intermediate, allows for two principally different targeting strategies: (1) catalytic inhibition of Tdp1 catalysis to prevent Tdp1-mediated repair of DNA-adducts that enhances the effectivity of chemotherapeutics; and (2) poisoning of Tdp1 by stabilization of the Tdp1- DNA covalent reaction intermediate, which would increase the half-life of a potentially toxic DNA-adduct by preventing its resolution, analogous to topoisomerase targeted poisons such as topotecan or etoposide. The catalytic Tdp1 mutant that forms the molecular basis of the autosomal recessive neurodegenerative disease spinocerebellar ataxia with axonal neuropathy best illustrates this concept; however, no small molecules have been reported for this strategy. Herein, we concisely discuss the development of Tdp1 catalytic inhibitors and their results.

Abstract
Spinocerebellar ataxia syndrome with axonal neuropathy (SCAN1) is a debilitating neurological disease that is caused by the mutation the Tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase 1 (TDP1) DNA repair enzyme. The crucial His493 in TDP1's binding site is replaced with an arginine amino acid residue rendering the enzyme dysfunctional. A virtual screen was performed against the homology model of SCAN1 and seventeen compounds were identified and tested in a novel SCAN1 specific biochemical assay. Six compounds showed activity with IC50 values between 3.5 and 25.1 µM. The most active ligand 5 (3.5 µM) is a dicoumarin followed by a close structural analogue 6 at 6.0 µM. A less potent series of β-carbolines (14 and 15) was found with potency in the mid-teens. According to molecular modelling an excellent fit for the active ligands into the binding pocket is predicted. To the best of our knowledge, data on inhibitors of the mutant form of TDP1 has not been reported previously. The virtual hits were also tested for wild type TDP1 activity and all six SCAN1 inhibitors are potent for the former, e.g., ligand 5 has a measured IC50 at 99 nM. In the last decade, TDP1 is considered as a promising target for adjuvant therapy against cancer in combination with Topoisomerase 1 poisons. The active ligands are mostly non-toxic to cancer cell lines A-549, T98G and MCF-7 as well as the immortalized WI-38 human fetal lung cells. Furthermore, ligands 5 and 7, show promising synergy in conjunction with topotecan, a clinically used topoisomerase 1 anticancer drug. The active ligands 5, 7, 14 and 15 have a good balance of the physicochemical properties required for oral bioavailability making the excellent candidates for further development.

Abstract
Tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase 1 (Tdp1) is a promising therapeutic target in cancer therapy. Combination chemotherapy using Tdp1 inhibitors as a component can potentially improve therapeutic response to many chemotherapeutic regimes. A new set of usnic acid derivatives with hydrazonothiazole pharmacophore moieties were synthesized and evaluated as Tdp1 inhibitors. Most of these compounds were found to be potent inhibitors with IC50 values in the low nanomolar range. The activity of the compounds was verified by binding experiments and supported by molecular modeling. The ability of the most effective inhibitors, used at non-toxic concentrations, to sensitize tumors to the anticancer drug topotecan was also demonstrated. The order of administration of the inhibitor and topotecan on their synergistic effect was studied, suggesting that prior or simultaneous introduction of the inhibitor with topotecan is the most effective.

Abstract
A new class of tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase 1 (TDP1) inhibitors was found among resin acid derivatives. Several novel ureas and thioureas derived from dehydroabietylamine were synthesized and tested for TDP1 inhibition. The synthesized compounds showed IC50 values in the range of 0.1 to 3.7 μM and demonstrated low cytotoxicity against the human tumor cell lines U-937, U-87MG, MDA-MB, SK-Mel8, A-549, MCF7, T98G, and SNB19. Several compounds showed enhancement of the cytotoxic activity of the alkylating agent temozolomide, which is used as a first line therapy against glioblastoma (GBM), in the GBM cell lines U-87MG and SNB19.

Abstract
Glioblastoma (GBM) patients have an estimated survival of ~15 months with treatment, and the standard of care only modestly enhances patient survival. Identifying biomarkers representing vulnerabilities may allow for the selection of efficacious chemotherapy options to address personalized variations in GBM tumors. Irinotecan targets topoisomerase I (TOP1) by forming a ternary DNA-TOP1 cleavage complex (TOP1cc), inducing apoptosis. Tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase 1 (TDP1) is a crucial repair enzyme that may reduce the effectiveness of irinotecan. We treated GBM cell lines with increasing concentrations of irinotecan and compared the IC50 values. We found that the TDP1/TOP1 activity ratio had the strongest correlation (Pearson correlation coefficient R = 0.972, based on the average from three sets of experiments) with IC50 values following irinotecan treatment. Increasing the TDP1/TOP1 activity ratio by the ectopic expression of wild-type TDP1 increased in irinotecan IC50, while the expression of the TDP1 catalytic-null mutant did not alter the susceptibility to irinotecan. The TDP1/TOP1 activity ratio may be a new predictive indicator for GBM vulnerability to irinotecan, allowing for the selection of individual patients for irinotecan treatment based on risk-benefit. Moreover, TDP1 inhibitors may be a novel combination treatment with irinotecan to improve GBM patient responsiveness to genotoxic chemotherapies.

Abstract
Eleven amide and thioamide derivatives with monoterpene and adamantine substituents were synthesised. They were tested for their activity against the tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase 1 DNA (Tdp1) repair enzyme with the most potent compound 47a, having an IC50 value of 0.64 M. When tested in the A-549 lung adenocarcinoma cell line, no or very limited cytotoxic effect was observed for the ligands. However, in conjunction with topotecan, a well-established Topoisomerase 1 (Top1) poison in clinical use against cancer, derivative 46a was very cytotoxic at 5 M concentration, displaying strong synergism. This effect was only seen for 46a (IC50—3.3 M) albeit some other ligands had better IC50 values. Molecular modelling into the catalytic site of Tdp1 predicted plausible binding mode of 46a, effectively blocking access to the catalytic site.

Abstract
The DNA damage response (DDR) is one of the most important mechanisms of platinum resistance in ovarian cancer. Some miRNAs have been identified to be involved in the regulatory network of DDR, thus the abnormal expression of miRNAs might affect platinum chemosensitivity in ovarian cancer. In this study, by assessing miRNAs simultaneously targeting a set of DDR genes that exhibited response to platinum, we found that miR-211 inhibited most of those genes, and proposed that miR-211 might affect the sensitivity of ovarian cancer cells to platinum by targeting multiple DDR genes and thereby determine the prognosis of ovarian cancer. To verify the hypothesis, we analyzed the association between miR-211 level and clinical prognosis, assessed the effect of miR-211 on DDR and platinum chemosensitivity, and explored the possible molecular mechanism. We revealed that miR-211 enhanced platinum chemosensitivity and was positively correlated with favorable outcomes in ovarian cancer patients. Many DDR genes including TDP1 were identified as targets of miR-211. In contrast, TDP1 suppressed DNA damage and platinum chemosensitivity. Moreover, the miR-211 level in tissues was shown to be associated with the good outcome of neoadjuvant chemotherapy and negatively correlated with the expression of TDP1. Conclusively, we demonstrated that miR-211 improves the prognosis of ovarian cancer patients by enhancing the chemosensitivity of cancer cells to platinum via inhibiting DDR gene expression, which provides an essential basis to identify novel treatment targets to block DDR effectively and improve chemosensitivity in ovarian cancer.

Abstract
Tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase 1 (Tdp1) is a DNA repair enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of the phosphodiester bond in the DNA-topoisomerase 1 (Top1) covalent complex and repairs some other 3'-end DNA adducts. Currently, Tdp1 functions as an important target in cancer drug design owing to its ability to break down various DNA adducts induced by chemotherapeutics. Tdp1 inhibitors may sensitize tumor cells to the action of Top1 poisons, thereby potentiating their effects. This mini-review summarizes findings from studies reporting the combined inhibition of Top1 and Tdp1. Two different approaches have been considered for developing such drug precursors.
