Abstract
Monocarbonyl analogs of curcumin (MACs) represent structurally modified versions of curcumin. The existing literature indicates that MACs exhibit enhanced anticancer properties compared with curcumin. Numerous research articles in recent years have emphasized the significance of MACs as effective anticancer agents. This review focuses on the latest advances in the anticancer potential of MACs, from 2014 to 2024, including discussions on their mechanism of action, structure-activity relationship (SAR), and in silico molecular docking studies.

Conjugates of 3,5-Bis(arylidene)-4-piperidone and Sesquiterpene Lactones Have an Antitumor Effect via Resetting the Metabolic Phenotype of Cancer Cells. Molecules 2024; 29:2765. [PMID: 38930831 PMCID: PMC11207066 DOI: 10.3390/molecules29122765] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/10/2024] [Revised: 05/30/2024] [Accepted: 06/05/2024] [Indexed: 06/28/2024] Open
Abstract
In recent years, researchers have often encountered the significance of the aberrant metabolism of tumor cells in the pathogenesis of malignant neoplasms. This phenomenon, known as the Warburg effect, provides a number of advantages in the survival of neoplastic cells, and its application is considered a potential strategy in the search for antitumor agents. With the aim of developing a promising platform for designing antitumor therapeutics, we synthesized a library of conjugates of 3,5-bis(arylidene)-4-piperidone and sesquiterpene lactones. To gain insight into the determinants of the biological activity of the prepared compounds, we showed that the conjugates of 3,5-bis(arylidene)-4-piperidone and sesquiterpene lactones, which are cytotoxic agents, demonstrate selective activity toward a number of tumor cell lines with glycolysis-inhibiting ability. Moreover, the results of molecular and in silico screening allowed us to identify these compounds as potential inhibitors of the pyruvate kinase M2 oncoprotein, which is the rate-determining enzyme of glycolysis. Thus, the results of our work indicate that the synthesized conjugates of 3,5-bis(arylidene)-4-piperidone and sesquiterpene lactones can be considered a promising platform for designing selective cytotoxic agents against the glycolysis process, which opens new possibilities for researchers involved in the search for antitumor therapeutics among compounds containing piperidone platforms.

Biomolecules 2021; 11:biom11070947.

Abstract
A new and readily available pentafluorothiophenyl-substituted N-methyl-piperidone curcuminoid 1a was prepared and investigated for its anti-proliferative, pro-apoptotic and cancer stem cell-differentiating activities against a panel of human tumor cell lines derived from various tumor entities. The compound 1a was highly anti-proliferative and reached IC50 values in the nanomolar concentration range. 1a was superior to the known anti-tumorally active curcuminoid EF24 (2) and its known N-ethyl-piperidone analog 1b in all tested tumor cell lines. Furthermore, 1a induced a noticeable increase of intracellular reactive oxygen species in HT-29 colon adenocarcinoma cells, which possibly leads to a distinct increase in sub-G1 cells, as assessed by cell cycle analysis. A considerable activation of the executioner-caspases 3 and 7 as well as nuclei fragmentation, cell rounding, and membrane protrusions suggest the triggering of an apoptotic mechanism. Yet another effect was the re-organization of the actin cytoskeleton shown by the formation of stress fibers and actin aggregation. 1a also caused cell death in the adherently cultured glioblastoma cell lines U251 and Mz54. We furthermore observed that 1a strongly suppressed the stem cell properties of glioma stem-like cell lines including one primary line, highlighting the potential therapeutic relevance of this new compound.

Abstract
A series of the title curcuminoids with structural variance in the heteroatom of the cycloalkanone and the p-substituents of the phenyl rings were tested for their activities against Leishmania major and Toxoplasma gondii parasites. The majority of them showed high activities against both parasite forms with EC50 values in the sub-micromolar concentration range. Bis(p-pentafluorothio)-substituted 3,5-di[(E)-benzylidene]piperidin-4-one 1b was not just noticeable antiparasitic, but also exhibited a considerable selectivity for L. major promastigotes over normal Vero cells. While derivatives differing only in the p-phenyl substituents being CF3 or SF5 showed similar antiparasitic activities, the cyclic ketone hub was more decisive both for the anti-parasitic activities and the selectivities for the parasites vs. normal cells. QSAR calculations confirmed the observed structure-activity relations and suggested structural variations for a further improvement of the antiparasitic activity. Docking studies based on DFT calculations revealed L. major pteridine reductase 1 as a likely molecular target protein of the title compounds.
