Discovery of Simple Diacylhydrazine-Functionalized Cinnamic Acid Derivatives as Potential Microtubule Stabilizers. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms232012365. [PMID: 36293224 PMCID: PMC9604255 DOI: 10.3390/ijms232012365] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/03/2022] [Revised: 09/21/2022] [Accepted: 10/05/2022] [Indexed: 11/04/2022] Open
Abstract
To develop novel microtubule-binding agents for cancer therapy, an array of N-cinnamoyl-N'-(substituted)acryloyl hydrazide derivatives were facilely synthesized through a two-step process. Initially, the antiproliferative activity of these title compounds was explored against A549, 98 PC-3 and HepG2 cancer cell lines. Notably, compound I23 exhibited the best antiproliferative activity against three cancer lines with IC50 values ranging from 3.36 to 5.99 μM and concurrently afforded a lower cytotoxicity towards the NRK-52E cells. Anticancer mechanism investigations suggested that the highly bioactive compound I23 could potentially promote the protofilament assembly of tubulin, thus eventually leading to the stagnation of the G2/M phase cell cycle of HepG2 cells. Moreover, compound I23 also disrupted cancer cell migration and significantly induced HepG2 cells apoptosis in a dosage-dependent manner. Additionally, the in silico analysis indicated that compound I23 exhibited an acceptable pharmacokinetic profile. Overall, these easily prepared N-cinnamoyl-N'-(substituted)acryloyl hydrazide derivatives could serve as potential microtubule-interacting agents, probably as novel microtubule-stabilizers.

Abstract
In this work, design, synthesis, and screening of thiophene carboxamides 4-13 and 16-23 as dual vascular endothelial growth factor receptors (VEGFRs) and mitotic inhibitors was reported. All compounds were screened against two gastrointestinal solid cancer cells, HepG-2 and HCT-116 cell lines. The most active cytotoxic derivatives 5 and 21 displayed 2.3- and 1.7-fold higher cytotoxicity than Sorafenib against HepG-2 cells. Cell cycle and apoptosis analyses for compounds 5 and 21 showed cells accumulation in the sub-G1 phase, and cell cycle arrest at G2/M phase. The apoptotic inducing activities of compounds 5 and 21were correlated to the elevation of p53, increase in Bax/Bcl-2 ratio, and increase in caspase-3/7.Compounds 5 and 21 showed potent inhibition againstVEGFR-2 (IC50 = 0.59 and 1.29 μM) and β-tubulin polymerization (73% and 86% inhibition at their IC50 values).Molecular docking was performed with VEGFR-2 and tubulin binding sites to explain the displayed inhibitory activities.

Abstract
Previous work, verified here, showed that colchicine affects Dictyostelium pattern formation, disrupts morphogenesis, inhibits spore differentiation and induces terminal stalk cell differentiation. Here we show that colchicine specifically induces ecmB expression and enhances accumulation of ecmB-expressing cells at the posterior end of multicellular structures. Colchicine did not induce a nuclear translocation of DimB, a DIF-1 responsive transcription factor in vitro. It also induced terminal stalk cell differentiation in a mutant strain that does not produce DIF-1 (dmtA-) and after the treatment of cells with DIF-1 synthesis inhibitor cerulenin (100 μM). This suggests that colchicine induces the differentiation of ecmB-expressing cells independent of DIF-1 production and likely through a signaling pathway that is distinct from the one that is utilized by DIF-1. Depending on concentration, colchicine enhanced random cell motility, but not chemotaxis, by 3-5 fold (10-50 mM colchicine, respectively) through a Ca(2+)-mediated signaling pathway involving phospholipase C, calmodulin and heterotrimeric G proteins. Colchicine's effects were not due to microtubule depolymerization as other microtubule-depolymerizing agents did not have these effects. Finally normal morphogenesis and stalk and spore cell differentiation of cells treated with 10 mM colchicine were rescued through chelation of Ca2+ by BAPTA-AM and EDTA and calmodulin antagonism by W-7 but not PLC inhibition by U-73122. Morphogenesis or spore cell differentiation of cells treated with 50 mM colchicine could not be rescued by the above treatments but terminal stalk cell differentiation was inhibited by BAPTA-AM, EDTA and W-7, but not U-73122. Thus colchicine disrupts morphogenesis and induces stalk cell differentiation through a Ca(2+)-mediated signaling pathway involving specific changes in gene expression and cell motility.

Abstract
A novel series of phenylimino-10H-anthracen-9-ones and 9-(phenylhydrazone)-9,10-anthracenediones were synthesized and evaluated for interaction with tubulin and for cytotoxicity against a panel of human tumor cell lines. The 10-(3-hydroxy-4-methoxy-phenylimino)-10H-anthracen-9-one 15h and its dichloro analog 16b were identified as potent inhibitors of tumor cell growth (16b, IC(50) K562 0.11 μM), including multidrug resistant phenotypes. Compound 15h had excellent activity as an inhibitor of tubulin polymerization. Concentration-dependent cell cycle analyzes by flow cytometry confirmed that KB/HeLa cells treated by 15h and 16b were arrested in the G2/M phases of the cell cycle. In competition experiments, 15h strongly displaced radiolabeled colchicine from its binding site on tubulin, showing IC(50) values similar to that of colchicine. The results obtained demonstrate that the antiproliferative activity is related to the inhibition of tubulin polymerization.

Abstract
Three series of novel β-amino alcohols possessing an N-anthranyl group have been obtained using tryptophan as the major starting material. These compounds were screened for cytotoxic activity against five human cancer cell lines in vitro by MTT assay, and some of them exhibited potential ability to be anticancer agents. Structure-activity relationship was carefully investigated. Only the compounds possessing small substituents (H or CH(3)) at C-6 position showed the same activity as cisplatin (DDP) did.

Abstract
A series of 10-(2-oxo-2-phenylethylidene)-10H-anthracen-9-ones were synthesized and evaluated for interactions with tubulin and for antiproliferative activity against a panel of human and rodent tumor cell lines. The 4-methoxy analogue 17b was most potent, displaying IC(50) values ranging from 40 to 80 nM, including multidrug resistant phenotypes, and had excellent activity as an inhibitor of tubulin polymerization (IC(50) = 0.52 microM). Concentration-dependent flow cytometric studies showed that KB/HeLa cells treated with 17b were arrested in the G2/M phases of the cell cycle (EC(50) = 90 nM). In competition experiments, 17b strongly displaced [(3)H]-colchicine from its binding site in the tubulin. The results obtained demonstrate that the antiproliferative activity is related to the inhibition of tubulin polymerization.
