Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitors as anticancer agents: An outlook on clinical progress, synthetic strategies, biological activity, and structure-activity relationship. Eur J Med Chem 2024; 274:116535. [PMID: 38838546 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejmech.2024.116535] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/09/2024] [Revised: 05/20/2024] [Accepted: 05/24/2024] [Indexed: 06/07/2024]
Abstract
Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) is considered an essential component in case of DNA (Deoxyribonucleic acid) damage, response by sensing DNA damage and engaging DNA repair proteins. Those proteins repair the damaged DNA via an aspect of posttranslational modification, known as poly (ADP-Ribosyl)ation (PARylation). Specifically, PARP inhibitors (PARPi) have shown better results when administered alone in a variety of cancer types with BRCA (Breast Cancer gene) mutation. The clinical therapeutic benefits of PARP inhibitors have been diminished by their cytotoxicity, progression of drug resistance, and limitation of indication, regardless of their tremendous clinical effectiveness. A growing number of PARP-1 inhibitors, particularly those associated with BRCA-1/2 mutations, have been identified as potential cancer treatments. Recently, several researchers have identified various promising scaffolds, which have resulted in the resuscitation of the faith in PARP inhibitors as cancer therapies. This review provided a comprehensive update on the anatomy and physiology of the PARP enzyme, the profile of FDA (Food and Drug Administration) and CFDA (China Food and Drug Administration)-approved drugs, and small-molecule inhibitors of PARP, including their synthetic routes, biological evaluation, selectivity, and structure-activity relationship.

Bioorg Chem 2024; 147:107409. [PMID: 38714116 DOI: 10.1016/j.bioorg.2024.107409] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/20/2023] [Revised: 02/17/2024] [Accepted: 04/26/2024] [Indexed: 05/09/2024]
Abstract
Sulfonamides have gained prominence as versatile agents in cancer therapy, effectively targeting a spectrum of cancer-associated enzymes. This review provides an extensive exploration of their multifaceted roles in cancer biology. Sulfonamides exhibit adaptability by acting as tyrosine kinase inhibitors, disrupting pivotal signaling pathways in cancer progression. Moreover, they disrupt pH regulation mechanisms in cancer cells as carbonic anhydrase inhibitors, inhibiting growth, and survival. Sulfonamides also serve as aromatase inhibitors, interfering with estrogen synthesis in hormone-driven cancers. Inhibition of matrix metalloproteinases presents an opportunity to impede cancer cell invasion and metastasis. Additionally, their emerging role as histone deacetylase inhibitors offers promising prospects in epigenetic-based cancer therapies. These diverse roles underscore sulfonamides as invaluable tools for innovative anti-cancer treatments, warranting further exploration for enhanced clinical applications and patient outcomes.

Abstract
Novel rhein-piperazine-furanone hybrids, 5, were designed and synthesized efficiently from rhein. Cytotoxicity of all hybrids 5a-j against A549 human lung cancer cells was superior to the parent rhein and the reference cytarabine (CAR). Hybrid 5e (IC50 = 5.74 μM), the most potent compound, was 46- and 35-fold more toxic against A549 cells than rhein (IC50 = 265.59 μM) and CAR (IC50 = 202.57 μM), respectively. Moreover, hybrid 5e (IC50 = 69.28 μM) was less toxic to normal WI-38 human lung fibroblast cells with good selectivity (WI-38/A549, SI ≈ 12), being much higher than rhein (SI ≈ 1) and CAR (SI ≈ 2). Structure-activity relationship (SAR) analysis showed that cytotoxicity and selectivity against A549 lung cancer cells were greatly enhanced when methoxy-containing furanone was introduced to the hybrids (5e and 5h). Further, hybrid 5e showed better cytotoxicity against four types of human lung cancer cells (H460, A549, PC-9, and Calu-1; IC50 = 4.35-15.39 μM) than six other types of human cancer cells (SK-BR-3, SK-OV-3, 786-O, Huh-7, HCT116, and HeLa; IC50 = 13.77-60.45 μM), showing specificity. In particular, hybrid 5e showed the highest cytotoxicity (IC50 = 4.35 μM) and the highest selectivity (WI-38/H460, SI ≈ 16) against H460 human lung cancer cells. Flow cytometric analysis showed that hybrid 5e induced apoptosis in a concentration-dependent manner in H460 cells. The results show that the cytotoxicity and selectivity of rhein can be greatly enhanced by hybridization with furanone. Hybrid 5e is expected to be a leading candidate for anti-lung cancer drugs.

Abstract
Substituted saturated N-heterocycles have gained momentum as effective scaffolds for the development of new drugs. In this study, we coupled partly saturated benzothiazoles with substituted piperazines and evaluated their antimicrobial activity. Following a three-step reaction sequence from commercially available cyclic 1,3-diones, a series of novel 2-[4-substituted-1-piperazinyl]-N-(7-oxo-4,5,6,7-tetrahydrobenzo[d]thiazol-2-yl)acetamides (7a-af) were synthesised. 2-Amino-5,6-dihydro-benzo[d]thiazol-7(4H)-ones, obtained through the condensation of cyclohexane-1,3-diones with thiourea, were acetylated with chloroacetic chloride and then reacted with N-substituted piperazines 6a-p to give the desired products 7a-af in excellent yields. All 32 new compounds were fully characterised by their 1 H-nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), 13 C-NMR and high-resolution mass spectrometry spectra. The synthetic compounds 7a-af were tested in vitro for their efficacy as antimicrobials against pathogenic strains of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, Streptococcus mutans and Salmonella typhi, respectively, as well as against fungal strains, including Candida albicans 3018 and C. albicans 4748. Ciprofloxacin and fluconazole served as the reference drugs. While compounds 7c and 7l showed inhibition against fungal strains with zones of inhibition of 11 and 1 mm, respectively, four analogues (7d, 7l, 7n, and 7r) demonstrated strong antibacterial action (zone of inhibition in the range of 10-15 mm). Three compounds (7j, 7l, and 7w) also exhibited moderate antitubercular activity (MIC: 6.25 µg/mL) against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv. Molecular docking investigations and the predicted physicochemical and ADMET (absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion, and toxicity) properties for the potent compounds made this scaffold useful as a pharmacologically active framework for the development of potential antimicrobial hits.

Abstract
In an attempt to identify small molecules for the treatment of leukemia, 12 new pyrazolines (2a-l) were synthesized efficiently. WST-1 assay was performed to examine their cytotoxic features on HL-60 human acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL), K562 human chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), and THP-1 human acute monocytic leukemia cells. Four compounds (2e, 2f, 2g, and 2h) were determined as promising antileukemic agents on HL-60 and K562 cells. IC50 values of compounds 2f, 2h, 2e, 2g, and bortezomib for the HL-60 cell line were found as 33.52, 42.89, 48.02, 62.34, and 31.75 μM, while IC50 values of compounds 2h, 2g, 2f, 2e, and bortezomib for K562 cells were determined as 33.61, 50.23, 57.28, 76.90, and 42.69 μM, respectively. Further studies were carried out to shed light on the mechanism of antileukemic action. According to the data obtained by in vitro experiments, 1-(4-fluorophenyl)-3-(thiophen-3-yl)-5-(4-(4-methylpiperazin-1-yl)phenyl)-2-pyrazoline (2f) and 1-(3-bromophenyl)-3-(thiophen-3-yl)-5-(4-(4-methylpiperazin-1-yl)phenyl)-2-pyrazoline (2h) have proved to be potential antileukemic agents with remarkable cytotoxicity against HL-60 and K562 cells by activation of caspase 3, thereby inducing apoptosis.

Abstract
Piperazine is a privileged moiety that is a structural part of many clinical drugs. Piperazine-based scaffolds have attracted the attention of pharmaceutical and medicinal scientists to develop novel, efficient therapeutic agents owing to their significant and promising biological profile. In the current study, an ecofriendly ultrasonic-assisted synthetic approach was applied to achieve a novel series of 1-tosyl piperazine dithiocarbamate acetamide hybrids 4a-4j, which was evaluated for in vitro tyrosinase inhibition and thrombolytic and hemolytic cytotoxic activities. Among all the piperazine-based dithiocarbamate acetamide target molecules 4a-4j, the structural analogs 4d displayed excellent tyrosinase inhibition efficacy (IC50 = 6.88 ± 0.11 µM) which was better than the reference standard drugs kojic acid (30.34 ± 0.75 µM) and ascorbic acid (11.5 ± 1.00 µM), respectively, which was further confirmed by in silico induced-fit docking (IFD) simulation Good tyrosinase activities were exhibited by 4g (IC50 = 7.24 ± 0.15 µM), 4b (IC50 = 8.01 ± 0.11 µM) and 4c (IC50 = 8.1 ± 0.30 µM) dithiocarbamate acetamides, which were also better tyrosinase inhibitors than the reference drugs but were less active than the 4d structural hybrid. All the derivatives are less toxic, having values in the 0.29 ± 0.01% to 15.6 ± 0.5% range. The scaffold 4b demonstrated better hemolytic potential (0.29 ± 0.01%), while a remarkably high thrombolytic chemotherapeutic potential was displayed by analog 4e (67.3 ± 0.2%).

Abstract
Immunotherapies are promising therapeutic options for the management of triple-negative breast cancer because of its high mutation rate and genomic instability. Of note, the blockade of the immune checkpoint protein PD-1 and its ligand PD-L1 has been proven to be an efficient and potent strategy to combat triple-negative breast cancer. To date, various anti-PD-1/anti-PD-L1 antibodies have been approved. However, the intrinsic constraints of these therapeutic antibodies significantly limit their application, making small molecules a potentially significant option for PD-1/PD-L1 inhibition. In light of this, the current study aims to use a high-throughput virtual screening technique to identify potential repurposed candidates as PD-L1 inhibitors. Thus, the present study explored binding efficiency of 2509 FDA-approved compounds retrieved from the drug bank database against PD-L1 protein. The binding affinity of the compounds was determined using the glide XP docking programme. Furthermore, prime-MM/GBSA, DFT calculations, and RF score were used to precisely re-score the binding free energy of the docked complexes. In addition, the ADME and toxicity profiles for the lead compounds were also examined to address PK/PD characteristics. Altogether, the screening process identified three molecules, namely DB01238, DB06016 and DB01167 as potential therapeutics for the PD-L1 protein. To conclude, a molecular dynamic simulation of 100 ns was run to characterise the stability and inhibitory action of the three lead compounds. The results from the simulation study confirm the robust structural and thermodynamic stability of DB01238 than other investigated molecules. Thus, our findings hypothesize that DB01238 could serve as potential PD-L1 inhibitor in the near future for triple-negative breast cancer patients.

Abstract
Novel pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine-based analogues were designed, synthesized, and evaluated for their ability to inhibit the α-amylase enzyme in order to treat diabetes. In vitro antidiabetic analysis demonstrated excellent antidiabetic action for compounds 5b, 6c, 7a, and 7b, with IC50 values in the 0.252-0.281 mM range. At a 200 μg/mL concentration, the exceptional percent inhibition values for compounds 5a, 5b, 5d, and 6a varied from 97.79 ± 2.86% to 85.56 ± 4.13% overperforming the standard (acarbose). Molecular docking of all compounds performed with Bacillus paralicheniformis α-amylase enzyme. The most active compounds via in vitro and non-toxic via in silico ADMET and molecular docking analysis, hybrids 6c, 7a, and 7b displayed binding affinity from - 8.2 and - 8.5 kcal/mol. Molecular dynamic simulations of most active compound 5b and 7a investigated into the active sites of the Bacillus paralicheniformis α-amylase enzyme for a 100-ns indicating the stability of hybrid-protein complex. Consistent RGyr values for the two complexes under study further suggest that the system's proteins are closely packed in the dynamic state. Synthesized analogs' in vitro biological assessments, ADMET, molecular docking, and MD modelling reveal that 5b, 6c, 7a, and 7b hybrid analogs may be employed in the development of future antidiabetic drugs.

Abstract
To discover novel carbonic anhydrase (CA, EC 4.2.1.1) inhibitors for cancer treatment, a series of 4-{4-[(hydroxyimino)methyl]piperazin-1-yl}benzenesulfonamides were designed and synthesized using SLC-0111 as the lead molecule. The developed novel compounds 27-34 were investigated for the inhibition of human (h) isoforms hCA I, hCA II, hCA IX, and hCA XII. The hCA I was inhibited by compound 29 with a Ki value of 3.0 nM, whereas hCA II was inhibited by compound 32 with a Ki value of 4.4 nM. The tumor-associated hCA IX isoform was inhibited by compound 30 effectively with an Ki value of 43 nM, whereas the activity of another cancer-related isoform, hCA XII, was significantly inhibited by 29 and 31 with a Ki value of 5 nM. Molecular modeling showed that drug molecule 30 participates in significant hydrophobic and hydrogen bond interactions with the active site of the investigated hCAs and binds to zinc through the deprotonated sulfonamide group.

Abstract
A new series of 3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl thiazole pyrimidines has been synthesized and biologically evaluated for its in vitro anticancer activity. Compounds 4a, 4b, and 4h with substituted piperazine showed the best antiproliferative activity. In the NCI-60 cell line screening, compound 4b showed promising cytostatic activity against multiple cell lines. Notably, it elicited a GI value of 86.28% against the NSCL cancer cell line HOP-92 at a 10 μM dose. Compounds 4a and 4h at 10 μM showed promising GI values of 40.87% and 46.14% against HCT-116 colorectal carcinoma and SK-BR-3 breast cancer cell lines, respectively. ADME-Tox prediction of compounds 4a, 4b, and 4h revealed their acceptable drug-likeness properties. In addition, compounds 4a, 4b, and 4h showed a high probability of targeting kinase receptors via Molinspiration and Swiss TargetPrediction.

Eur J Med Chem 2023; 251:115228. [PMID: 36881982 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejmech.2023.115228] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/11/2023] [Revised: 02/20/2023] [Accepted: 02/20/2023] [Indexed: 02/25/2023]
Abstract
As an important epigenetic regulator, histone lysine specific demethylase 1 (LSD1) has become an attractive target for the discovery of anticancer agents. In this work, a series of tranylcypromine-based derivatives were designed and synthesized. Among them, compound 12u exhibited the most potent inhibitory potency on LSD1 (IC50 = 25.3 nM), and also displayed good antiproliferative effects on MGC-803, KYSE450 and HCT-116 cells with IC50 values of 14.3, 22.8 and 16.3 μM, respectively. Further studies revealed that compound 12u could directly act on LSD1 and inhibit LSD1 in MGC-803 cells, thereby significantly increasing the expression levels of mono-/bi-methylation of H3K4 and H3K9. In addition, compound 12u could induce apoptosis and differentiation, inhibit migration and cell stemness in MGC-803 cells. All these findings suggested that compound 12u was an active tranylcypromine-based derivative as a LSD1 inhibitor that inhibited gastric cancer.

Abstract
Many human diseases including cancer, degenerative and autoimmune disorders, diabetes and others are multifactorial. Pharmaceutical agents acting on a single target do not provide their efficient curation. Multitargeted drugs exhibiting pleiotropic pharmacological effects have certain advantages due to the normalization of the complex pathological processes of different etiology. Extracts of medicinal plants (EMP) containing multiple phytocomponents are widely used in traditional medicines for multifactorial disorders' treatment. Experimental studies of pharmacological potential for multicomponent compositions are quite expensive and time-consuming. In silico evaluation of EMP the pharmacological potential may provide the basis for selecting the most promising directions of testing and for identifying potential additive/synergistic effects. Multiphytoadaptogen (MPhA) containing 70 major phytocomponents of different chemical classes from 40 medicinal plant extracts has been studied in vitro, in vivo and in clinical researches. Antiproliferative and anti-tumor activities have been shown against some tumors as well as evidence-based therapeutic effects against age-related pathologies. In addition, the neuroprotective, antioxidant, antimutagenic, radioprotective, and immunomodulatory effects of MPhA were confirmed. Analysis of the PASS profiles of the biological activity of MPhA phytocomponents showed that most of the predicted anti-tumor and anti-metastatic effects were consistent with the results of laboratory and clinical studies. Antimutagenic, immunomodulatory, radioprotective, neuroprotective and anti-Parkinsonian effects were also predicted for most of the phytocomponents. Effects associated with positive effects on the male and female reproductive systems have been identified too. Thus, PASS and PharmaExpert can be used to evaluate the pharmacological potential of complex pharmaceutical compositions containing natural products.

Abstract
A new series of 5-(4-chlorophenyl)-1,3,4-thiadiazole-based compounds featuring pyridinium (3), substituted piperazines (4a-g), benzyl piperidine (4i), and aryl aminothiazoles (5a-e) heterocycles were synthesized. Evaluation of the cytotoxicity potential of the new compounds against MCF-7 and HepG2 cancer cell lines indicated that compounds 4e and 4i displayed the highest activity toward the tested cancer cells. A selectivity study demonstrated the high selective cytotoxicity of 4e and 4i towards cancerous cells over normal mammalian Vero cells. Cell cycle analysis revealed that treatment with either compound 4e or 4i induced cell cycle arrest at the S and G2/M phases in HepG2 and MCF-7 cells, respectively. Moreover, the significant increase in the Bax/Bcl-2 ratio and caspase 9 levels in HepG2 and MCF-7 cells treated with either 4e or 4i indicated that their cytotoxic effect is attributed to the ability to induce apoptotic cell death. Finally, an in vivo radioactive tracing study of compound 4i proved its targeting ability to sarcoma cells in a tumor-bearing mice model.

Abstract
Bayoud disease affects date palms in North Africa and the Middle East, and many researchers have used various methods to fight it. One of those methods is the chemical use of synthetic compounds, which raises questions centred around the compounds and common features used to prepare targeted molecules. In this review, 100 compounds of tested small molecules, collected from 2002 to 2022 in Web of Sciences, were divided into ten different classes against the main cause of Bayoud disease pathogen Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. albedinis (F.o.a.) with structure-activity relationship (SAR) interpretations for pharmacophore site predictions as (δ-···δ-), where 12 compounds are the most efficient (one compound from each group). The compounds, i.e., (Z)-1-(1.5-Dimethyl-1H-pyrazole-3-yl)-3-hydroxy but-2-en-1-one 7, (Z)-3-(phenyl)-1-(1,5-dimethyl-1H-pyrazole-3-yl)-3-hydroxyprop-2-en-1-one 23, (Z)-1-(1,5-Dimethyl-1H-pyrazole-3-yl)-3-hydroxy-3-(pyridine-2-yl)prop-2-en-1-one 29, and 2,3-bis-[(2-hydroxy-2-phenyl)ethenyl]-6-nitro-quinoxaline 61, have antifungal pharmacophore sites (δ-···δ-) in common in N1---O4, whereas other compounds have only one δ- pharmacophore site pushed by the donor effect of the substituents on the phenyl rings. This specificity interferes in the biological activity against F.o.a. Further understanding of mechanistic drug-target interactions on this subject is currently underway.
