A series of thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidine-based hydroxamic acid hybrids was designed and synthesised as multitarget anti-cancer agents, through incorporating the pharmacophore of EGFR, VEGFR2 into the inhibitory functionality of HDAC6. Three compounds (12c, 15b and 20b) were promising hits, whereas (12c) exhibited potent VEGFR2 inhibition (IC50=185 nM), potent EGFR inhibition (IC50=1.14 µM), and mild HDAC6 inhibition (23% inhibition). Moreover, compound (15c) was the most potent dual inhibitor among all the synthesised compounds, as it exhibited potent EGFR and VEGFR2 inhibition (IC50=19 nM) and (IC50=5.58 µM), respectively. While compounds (20d) and (7c) displayed nanomolar selective kinase inhibition with EGFR IC50= 68 nM and VEGFR2 IC50= 191 nM, respectively. All of the synthesised compounds were screened in vitro for their cytotoxic effect on 60 human NCI tumour cell lines. Additionally, molecular docking studies and ADMET studies were carried out to gain further insight into their binding mode and predict the pharmacokinetic properties of all the synthesised inhibitors. 相似文献

In the current work, some 1,3,4-oxadiazole-naphthalene hybrids were designed and synthesised as VEGFR-2 inhibitors. The synthesised compounds were evaluated in vitro for their antiproliferative activity against two human cancer cell lines namely, HepG-2 and MCF-7. Compounds that exhibited promising cytotoxicity (5, 8, 15, 16, 17, and 18) were further evaluated for their VEGFR-2 inhibitory activities. Compound 5 showed good antiproliferative activity against both cell lines and inhibitory effect on VEGFR-2. Besides, it induced apoptosis by 22.86% compared to 0.51% in the control (HepG2) cells. This apoptotic effect was supported by a 5.61-fold increase in the level of caspase-3 compared to the control cells. Moreover, it arrested the HepG2 cell growth mostly at the Pre-G1 phase. Several in silico studies were performed including docking, ADMET, and toxicity studies to predict binding mode against VEGFR-2 and to anticipate pharmacokinetic, drug-likeness, and toxicity of the synthesised compounds. 相似文献

Different 2,4-thiazolidinedione-tethered coumarins 5a–b, 10a–n and 11a–d were synthesised and evaluated for their inhibitory action against the cancer-associated hCAs IX and XII, as well as the physiologically dominant hCAs I and II to explore their selectivity. Un-substituted phenyl-bearing coumarins 10a, 10 h, and 2-thienyl/furyl-bearing coumarins 11a–c exhibited the best hCA IX (KIs between 0.48 and 0.93 µM) and hCA XII (KIs between 0.44 and 1.1 µM) inhibitory actions. Interestingly, none of the coumarins had any inhibitory effect on the off-target hCA I and II isoforms. The sub-micromolar compounds from the biochemical assay, coumarins 10a, 10 h and 11a–c, were assessed in an in vitro antiproliferative assay, and then the most potent antiproliferative agent 11a was tested to explore its impact on the cell cycle phases and apoptosis in MCF-7 breast cancer cells to provide more insights into the anticancer activity of these compounds. 相似文献

Molecular hybridisation of four bioactive fragments piperazine, substituted-benzofuran, amino acids, and 2,4-dinitrobenzenesulfonamide as single molecular architecture was designed. A series of new hybrids were synthesised and subjected to evaluation for their inhibitory activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) H37Rv. 4d–f and 4o found to exhibit MIC as 1.56 µg/mL, equally active as ethambutol whereas 4a, 4c, 4j displayed MIC 0.78 µg/mL were superior to ethambutol. Tested compounds demonstrated an excellent safety profile with very low toxicity, good selectivity index, and antioxidant properties. All the newly synthesised compounds were thoroughly characterised by analytical methods. The result was further supported by molecular modelling studies on the crystal structure of Mycobacterium tuberculosis enoyl reductase. 相似文献

PDK1, a biological target that has attracted a large amount of attention recently, is responsible for the positive regulation of the PI3K/Akt pathway that is often activated in a large number of human cancers. A series of second-generation 2-anilino-4-substituted-7H-pyrrolopyrimidines were synthesised by installation of various functions at the 4-position of the 7H-pyrrolopyrimidine scaffold. All compounds were screened against the isolated PDK1 enzyme and dose response analysis was obtained on the best compounds of the series. 相似文献

Drug efflux pumps confer multidrug resistance to dangerous pathogens which makes these pumps important drug targets. We have synthesised a novel series of compounds based on a 2-naphthamide pharmacore aimed at inhibiting the efflux pumps from Gram-negative bacteria. The archeatypical transporter AcrB from Escherichia coli was used as model efflux pump as AcrB is widely conserved throughout Gram-negative organisms. The compounds were tested for their antibacterial action, ability to potentiate the action of antibiotics and for their ability to inhibit Nile Red efflux by AcrB. None of the compounds were antimicrobial against E. coli wild type cells. Most of the compounds were able to inhibit Nile Red efflux indicating that they are substrates of the AcrB efflux pump. Three compounds were able to synergise with antibiotics and reverse resistance in the resistant phenotype. Compound A3, 4-(isopentyloxy)-2-naphthamide, reduced the MICs of erythromycin and chloramphenicol to the MIC levels of the drug sensitive strain that lacks an efflux pump. A3 had no effect on the MIC of the non-substrate rifampicin indicating that this compound acts specifically through the AcrB efflux pump. A3 also does not act through non-specific mechanisms such as outer membrane or inner membrane permeabilisation and is not cytotoxic against mammalian cell lines. Therefore, we have designed and synthesised a novel chemical compound with great potential to further optimisation as inhibitor of drug efflux pumps. 相似文献

A new series of 1H-pyrrole (6a–c, 8a–c), pyrrolo[3,2-d]pyrimidines (9a–c) and pyrrolo[3,2-e][1, 4]diazepines (11a–c) were designed and synthesised. These compounds were designed to have the essential pharmacophoric features of EGFR Inhibitors, they have shown anticancer activities against HCT116, MCF-7 and Hep3B cancer cells with IC50 values ranging from 0.009 to 2.195 µM. IC50 value of doxorubicin is 0.008 µM, compounds 9a and 9c showed IC50 values of 0.011 and 0.009 µM respectively against HCT-116 cells. Compound 8b exerted broad-spectrum activity against all tested cell lines with an IC50 value less than 0.05 µM. Compound 8b was evaluated against a panel of kinases. This compound potently inhibited CDK2/Cyclin A1, DYRK3 and GSK3 alpha kinases with 10–23% compared to imatinib (1–10%). It has also arrested the cell cycle of MCF-7 cells at the S phase. Its antiproliferative activity was further augmented by molecular docking into the active sites of EGFR and CDK2 cyclin A1. 相似文献

Lapachol was chemically modified to obtain its thiosemicarbazone and semicarbazone derivatives. These compounds were tested for antimicrobial activity against several bacteria and fungi by the broth microdilution method. The thiosemicarbazone and semicarbazone derivatives of lapachol exhibited antimicrobial activity against the bacteria Enterococcus faecalis and Staphylococcus aureus with minimal inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of 0.05 and 0.10 µmol/mL, respectively. The thiosemicarbazone and semicarbazone derivatives were also active against the pathogenic yeast Cryptococcus gattii (MICs of 0.10 and 0.20 µmol/mL, respectively). In addition, the lapachol thiosemicarbazone derivative was active against 11 clinical isolates of Paracoccidioides brasiliensis, with MICs ranging from 0.01-0.10 µmol/mL. The lapachol-derived thiosemicarbazone was not cytotoxic to normal cells at the concentrations that were active against fungi and bacteria. We synthesised, for the first time, thiosemicarbazone and semicarbazone derivatives of lapachol. The MICs for the lapachol-derived thiosemicarbazone against S. aureus, E. faecalis, C. gattii and several isolates of P. brasiliensis indicated that this compound has the potential to be developed into novel drugs to treat infections caused these microbes. 相似文献

Using 2,8-bis(trifluoromethyl)quinoline, the pharmacophore of mefloquine, as scaffold, eleven novel triazole-linked compounds have been synthesised by the application of CuAAC chemistry. The in vitro biological activity of the compounds on the Plasmodium falciparum chloroquine-sensitive strain NF54 was then determined. The compounds all showed IC50s in the lower μM range with (1R,3S,5R)-N-{[1-(2,8-bis(trifluoromethyl)quinoline-4-yl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl]methyl}adamantan-2-amine (29) exhibiting the best activity of 1.00 μM. 相似文献

Novel series of pleuromutilin analogs containing substituted 1,2,3-triazole moieties were designed, synthesised and assessed for their in vitro antibacterial activity against Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). Initially, the in vitro antibacterial activities of these derivatives against 4 strains of S. aureus (MRSA ATCC 43300, ATCC 29213, AD3, and 144) were tested by the broth dilution method. Most of the synthesised pleuromutilin analogs displayed potent activities. Among them, compounds 50, 62, and 64 (MIC = 0.5∼1 µg/mL) showed the most effective antibacterial activity and their anti-MRSA activity were further studied by the time-killing kinetics approach. Binding mode investigations by surface plasmon resonance (SPR) with 50S ribosome revealed that the selected compounds all showed obvious affinity for 50S ribosome (KD = 2.32 × 10−8∼5.10 × 10−5 M). Subsequently, the binding of compounds 50 and 64 to the 50S ribosome was further investigated by molecular modelling. Compound 50 had a superior docking mode with 50S ribosome, and the binding free energy of compound 50 was calculated to be −12.0 kcal/mol. 相似文献

A series of novel hybrids comprising of 1,3,4-oxadiazole/thiadiazole and 1,2,4-triazole tethered to 5,6-diphenyl-1,2,4-triazin-3(2H)-one were designed, synthesised and evaluated as COX-2 inhibitors for the treatment of inflammation. The synthesised hybrids were characterised using FT-IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, elemental (C,H,N) analyses and assessed for their anti-inflammatory potential by in vitro albumin denaturation assay. Compounds exhibiting activity comparable to indomethacin and celecoxib were further evaluated for in vivo anti-inflammatory activity. Oral administration of promising compounds 3c–3e and 4c–4e did not evoke significant gastric, hepatic and renal toxicity in rats. These potential compounds exhibited reduced malondialdehyde (MDA) content on the gastric mucosa suggesting their protective effects by inhibition of lipid peroxidation. Based on the outcome of in vitro COX assay, compounds 3c–3e and 4c–4e (IC50 0.60–1.11 μM) elicited an interesting profile as competitive selective COX-2 inhibitors. Further, selected compounds 3e and 4c were found devoid of cardiotoxicity post evaluation on myocardial infarcted rats. The in silico binding mode of the potential compounds into the COX-2 active site through docking and molecular dynamics exemplified their consensual interaction and subsequent COX-2 inhibition with significant implications for structure-based drug design. 相似文献

Different oleanolic acid (OA) oxime ester derivatives (3a-3t) were designed and synthesised to develop inhibitors against α-glucosidase and α-amylase. All the synthesised OA derivatives were evaluated against α-glucosidase and α-amylase in vitro. Among them, compound 3a showed the highest α-glucosidase inhibition with an IC50 of 0.35 µM, which was ∼1900 times stronger than that of acarbose, meanwhile compound 3f exhibited the highest α-amylase inhibitory with an IC50 of 3.80 µM that was ∼26 times higher than that of acarbose. The inhibition kinetic studies showed that the inhibitory mechanism of compounds 3a and 3f were reversible and mixed types towards α-glucosidase and α-amylase, respectively. Molecular docking studies analysed the interaction between compound and two enzymes, respectively. Furthermore, cytotoxicity evaluation assay demonstrated a high level of safety profile of compounds 3a and 3f against 3T3-L1 and HepG2 cells.

In this study, we have synthesised (3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)(2,3,4-trihydroxyphenyl)methanone and a series of its derivatives (5, 13–16) and tested the ability of these compounds to inhibit two metalloenzyme human carbonic anhydrase (hCA, EC 4.2.1.1) isozymes, hCA I and hCA II. The synthesised compounds showed inhibitory effect on hCA I and hCA II isozymes. The results showed that synthesised compounds (5, 13–16) demonstrated the best inhibition activity against hCA I (IC50: 3.22–54.28 μM) and hCA II (IC50: 18.52–142.01 μM). The compound 14 showed the highest inhibiton effect against hCA I (IC50: 3.22 μM; Ki: 1.19?±?1.4 μM). On the other hand, the compound 13 showed the highest inhibiton effect against hCA II (IC50: 18.52 μM; Ki: 3.25?±?1.13 μM). 相似文献

A unified synthetic approach was developed that enabled the synthesis of diverse tropane-related scaffolds. The key intermediates that were exploited were cycloadducts formed by reaction between 3-hydroxy-pyridinium salts and vinyl sulfones or sulfonamides. The diverse tropane-related scaffolds were formed by addition of substituents to, cyclisation reactions of, and fusion of additional ring(s) to the key bicyclic intermediates. A set of 53 screening compounds was designed, synthesised and evaluated in order to determine the biological relevance of the scaffolds accessible using the synthetic approach. Two inhibitors of Hedgehog signalling, and four compounds with weak activity against the parasite P. falciparum, were discovered. Three of the active compounds may be considered to be indotropane or pyrrotropane pseudo natural products in which a tropane is fused with a fragment from another natural product class. It was concluded that the unified synthetic approach had yielded diverse scaffolds suitable for the design of performance-diverse screening libraries. 相似文献

In this work, the first mutual prodrug of 5-fluorouracil and heme oxygenase1 inhibitor (5-FU/HO-1 hybrid) has been designed, synthesised, and evaluated for its in vitro chemical and enzymatic hydrolysis stability. Predicted in silico physicochemical properties of the newly synthesised hybrid (3) demonstrated a drug-like profile with suitable Absorption, Distribution, Metabolism, and Excretion (ADME) properties and low toxic liabilities. Preliminary cytotoxicity evaluation towards human prostate (DU145) and lung (A549) cancer cell lines demonstrated that 3 exerted a similar effect on cell viability to that produced by the reference drug 5-FU. Among the two tested cancer cell lines, the A549 cells were more susceptible for 3. Of note, hybrid 3 also had a significantly lower cytotoxic effect on healthy human lung epithelial cells (BEAS-2B) than 5-FU. Altogether our results served as an initial proof-of-concept to develop 5-FU/HO-1 mutual prodrugs as potential novel anticancer agents. 相似文献

There is an urgent need to design new anticancer agents that can prevent cancer cell proliferation even with minimal side effects. Accordingly, two new series of 3-methylquinoxalin-2(1H)-one and 3-methylquinoxaline-2-thiol derivatives were designed to act as VEGFR-2 inhibitors. The designed derivatives were synthesised and evaluated in vitro as cytotoxic agents against two human cancer cell lines namely, HepG-2 and MCF-7. Also, the synthesised derivatives were assessed for their VEGFR-2inhibitory effect. The most promising member 11e were further investigated to reach a valuable insight about its apoptotic effect through cell cycle and apoptosis analyses. Moreover, deep investigations were carried out for compound 11e using western-plot analyses to detect its effect against some apoptotic and apoptotic parameters including caspase-9, caspase-3, BAX, and Bcl-2. Many in silico investigations including docking, ADMET, toxicity studies were performed to predict binding affinity, pharmacokinetic, drug likeness, and toxicity of the synthesised compounds. The results revealed that compounds 11e, 11g, 12e, 12g, and 12k exhibited promising cytotoxic activities (IC50 range is 2.1 − 9.8 µM), comparing to sorafenib (IC50 = 3.4 and 2.2 µM against MCF-7 and HepG2, respectively). Moreover, 11b, 11f, 11g, 12e, 12f, 12g, and 12k showed the highest VEGFR-2 inhibitory activities (IC50 range is 2.9 − 5.4 µM), comparing to sorafenib (IC50 = 3.07 nM). Additionally, compound 11e had good potential to arrest the HepG2 cell growth at G2/M phase and to induce apoptosis by 49.14% compared to the control cells (9.71%). As well, such compound showed a significant increase in the level of caspase-3 (2.34-fold), caspase-9 (2.34-fold), and BAX (3.14-fold), and a significant decrease in Bcl-2 level (3.13-fold). For in silico studies, the synthesised compounds showed binding mode similar to that of the reference compound (sorafenib). 相似文献

A series of [1]benzothieno[2,3-c]pyridines was synthesised. Most compounds were chosen by NCI-USA to evaluate their anticancer activity. Compounds 5a–c showed prominent growth inhibition against most cell lines. 5c was selected at five dose concentration levels. It exhibited potent broad-spectrum anticancer activity with a GI50 of 4 nM–37 µM. Cytotoxicity of 5a–c was further evaluated against prostate, renal, and breast cancer cell lines. 5c showed double and quadruple the activity of staurosporine and abiraterone, respectively, against the PC-3 cell line with IC50 2.08 µM. The possible mechanism of anti-prostate cancer was explored via measuring the CYP17 enzyme activity in mice prostate cancer models compared to abiraterone. The results revealed that 5c suppressed the CYP17 enzyme to 15.80 nM. Moreover, it was found to be equipotent to abiraterone in testosterone production. Cell cycle analysis and apoptosis were performed. Additionally, the ADME profile of compound 5c demonstrated both good oral bioavailability and metabolic stability. 相似文献

The biochemical mechanisms that marine sponges have developed as a chemical defense to protect themselves against micro and subsequent macrobiofouling process might comprise a potential alternative for the preventing attack of biofilm forming bacteria. The present study investigated the antimicrobial activity of a series of major secondary metabolites isolated from the sponges Fasciospongia cavernosa and Axinella donnani against fouling bacteria. Secomanoalide (1), dehydromanoalide (2) and cavernosine (3) have been isolated from F. cavernosa. Their structures were determined by MS, 1H NMR spectra analyses and by comparison with those reported in the literature. The most promising activity was exhibited by the metabolites from A. donnani, that is, cerebroside (5) against three strains Aeromonas hydrophila subsp. salmonicida A449 and Erythrobacter litoralis. Our investigation revealed that combined metabolites 1, 2 and 3 retained strong activity but individual metabolite had moderate activity indicating that activity probably results from synergistic interactions between multiple compounds. The antibacterial screening of compounds 3, 5 and synergistic effect of 1–3 against fouling bacteria has been studied for the first time. Further, isolation of manoalide related compounds and their synergistic screening can be accelerated for the development of new biofilm inhibitors. 相似文献
