Potential applications of antofine and its synthetic derivatives in cancer therapy: structural and molecular insights. NAUNYN-SCHMIEDEBERG'S ARCHIVES OF PHARMACOLOGY 2024:10.1007/s00210-024-03180-x. [PMID: 38842561 DOI: 10.1007/s00210-024-03180-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/22/2024] [Accepted: 05/21/2024] [Indexed: 06/07/2024]
Abstract
Cancer is a major global health challenge, being the second leading cause of morbidity and mortality after cardiovascular disease. The growing economic burden and profound psychosocial impact on patients and their families make it urgent to find innovative and effective anticancer solutions. For this reason, interest in using natural compounds to develop new cancer treatments has grown. In this respect, antofine, an alkaloid class found in Apocynaceae, Lauraceae, and Moraceae family plants, exhibits promising biological properties, including anti-inflammatory, anticancer, antiviral, and antifungal activities. Several molecular mechanisms have been identified underlying antofine anti-cancerous effects, including the inhibition of nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) and AKT/mTOR signaling pathways, epigenetic inhibition of protein synthesis, ribosomal targeting, induction of apoptosis, inhibition of DNA synthesis, and cell cycle arrest. This study discusses the molecular structure, sources, photochemistry, and anticancer properties of antofine in relation to its structure-activity relationship and molecular targets. Then, examine in vitro and in vivo studies and analyze the mechanisms of action underpinning antofine efficacy against cancer cells. This review also discusses multidrug resistance in human cancer and the potential of antofine in this context. Safety and toxicity concerns are also addressed as well as current challenges in antofine research, including the need for clinical trials and bioavailability optimization. This review aims to provide comprehensive information for more effective natural compound-based cancer treatments.

Abstract
The formation of N-heterocycles with multiple substituents is important in organic synthesis. Herein, we report a novel method for the construction of functionalized dihydropyridinone rings through the annulation of an amide α-carbon with a tethered alkyne moiety. The reaction of the amide with the alkyne was achieved via O-silyl N,O-ketene acetal formation and silver-mediated addition. Furthermore, the developed method was applied for the total synthesis of phenanthroindolizidine and phenanthroquinolizidine alkaloids. By varying the coupling partners, a concise and collective total synthesis of these alkaloids was achieved.

Abstract
Cancer is a frightful disease that still poses a 'nightmare' worldwide, causing millions of casualties annually due to one of the human race's most significant healthcare challenges that requires a pragmatic treatment strategy. However, plants and plant-derived products revolutionize the field as they are quick, cleaner, eco-friendly, low-cost, effective, and less toxic than conventional treatment methods. Plants are repositories for new chemical entities and have a promising cancer research path, supplying 60% of the anticancer agents currently used. Alkaloids are important chemical compounds that serve as a rich reservoir for drug discovery and development. However, some alkaloids derived from natural herbs display anti-proliferation and antimetastatic activity on different forms of cancer, both in vitro and in vivo. Alkaloids have also been widely formulated as anticancer medications, such as camptothecin and vinblastine. Still, more research and clinical trials are required before final recommendations can be made on specific alkaloids. This review focuses on the naturally-derived bioactive alkaloids with prospective anticancer properties based on the information in the literature.

Abstract
A series of 35 analogues of Shld with modifications in the A-residue and the C-residues were prepared and investigated for binding to FKBP and GFP accumulation in transgenic plants. The modifications investigated explored variations that were supposedly inside or outside the receptor binding site with the latter being important by influencing the overall polarity of the compounds in order to improve the absorption in plants. The binding of the new compounds to the destabilizing domain was determined using a fluorescence polarization competition assay, and the GFP expression in engineered Arabidopsis thaliana was studied. The results showed that modifications of the C-building block phenol with acidic, basic, and neutral groups led to better ligands with some being better than Shld in the plant. Generally small, polar substituents showed the best GFP accumulation.

Abstract
A synthesis of the important FKBP ligand Shld is reported. The synthesis avoids stoichiometric use of expensive and chiral reagents, maintains enantioselectivity and provides a high overall yield (39%). The main features in the method are enantioselective alkylation for preparation of the phenyl acetic acid moiety (building block A), catalytic enantioselective reduction for obtaining the chiral diaryl-1-propanol (building block C), and direct acylation of S-pipecolic tartrate rather than use of expensive Fmoc-pipecolic acid. The assembly of the building blocks A-C is reversed in comparison to previous synthesis, which also eliminates the need for protective groups.

Abstract
A Au(III)-catalyzed regiospecific hydration of N-(diphenylphosphinoyl)propargyl amines has been developed to produce various β-amino ketones. These reactions are conducted in the presence of NaAuCl4·2H2O (10 mol %) in a mixed solvent of EtOH/H2O/CH2Cl2 (4:1:1) at room temperature to give the products in 45-71% yield. The high enantiomeric purity of a chiral N-(diphenylphosphinoyl)propargyl amine (85% ee) is maintained after hydration, which makes this method useful for the asymmetric synthesis of chiral β-amino ketones. Reduction of a β-amino ketone product with Zn(BH4)2 gives a 1,3-amino alcohol with modest diastereoselectivity.
