Abstract
Breast cancer stands as the leading cause of cancer-related deaths among women globally, but current therapy is restricted to the serious adverse effects and multidrug resistance, necessitating the exploration of novel, safe, and efficient anti-breast cancer chemotherapeutic agents. Pyrazoles exhibit excellent potential for utilization as effective anti-breast cancer agents due to their ability to act on various biological targets. Particularly, pyrazole hybrids demonstrated the advantage of targeting multiple pathways, and some of them, which are exemplified by larotrectinib (pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine hybrid), can be applied for breast cancer therapy. Thus, pyrazole hybrids hold great promise as useful therapeutic interventions for breast cancer. The aim of this review is to summarize the current scenario of pyrazole hybrids with in vitro and/or in vivo anti-breast cancer potential, along with the modes of action and structure-activity relationships, covering articles published from 2020 to the present, to streamline the development of rational, effective and safe anti-breast cancer candidates.

Abstract
The synthesis and biological assessment of novel multi-functionalized pyrrolidine-containing benzenesulfonamides were reported along with their antimicrobial, antifungal, CAs inhibition, and AChE inhibition as well as DNA-binding effects. The chemical structure of the compounds was elucidated by using FTIR, NMR, and HRMS. Compound 3b, which had Ki values of 17.61 ± 3.58 nM (hCA I) and 5.14 ± 0.61 nM (hCA II), was found the be the most potent CAs inhibitor. Compounds 6a and 6b showed remarkable AChE inhibition effects with Ki values 22.34 ± 4.53 nM and 27.21 ± 3.96 nM in comparison to tacrine. Compounds 6a-6c had moderate antituberculosis effect on M. tuberculosis with a MIC value of 15.62 μg/ml. Compounds had weaker antifungal and antibacterial activity in the range of MIC 500-62.5 μg/ml against standard bacterial and fungal strains. Besides these above, molecular docking studies were performed to examine and evaluate the interaction of the remarkable compounds (3b, 6a and 6b) against the current enzymes (CAs and AChE). Novel compounds gained interest in terms of enzyme inhibitory potencies. Therefore, the most potent enzyme inhibitors may be considered lead compounds to be modified for further research.Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.

Abstract
Carbonic anhydrase (CA) is a metalloenzyme that catalyzes the interconversion between carbon dioxide and water and dissociated ions of carbonic acid. In addition, CA performs various other functions in animals and plants, depending on the part of the living being. CAs have been found in almost all organisms. Besides, CAs are associated with several diseases, such as glaucoma, obesity, epilepsy, cancer, and so on. CAs are also involved in tumor cell growth and angiogenesis. Thus, inhibition of CA may be an attractive way of control of such diseases. Hence, CA inhibitors have been designed and developed to cure CA-associated diseases. Some examples of approved CA inhibitors are dorzolamide, methazolamide, brinzolamide, and dichlorphenamide. Furthermore, various heterocyclic scaffolds were utilized for the design of CA inhibitors. Among those, pyrazole/pyrazoline derivatives have exhibited greater potency toward CA inhibition. Hence, research that took place in the field of drug design and discovery of CA inhibition has been systematically reviewed and collated. Alongside, the structure-activity relationship has been described, followed by a description of the most potent molecules and their structural features.

Abstract
The present investigation reports the design and synthesis of three series of benzoylthioureido derivatives bearing either benzenesulfonamide 7a–f, benzoic acid 8a–f or ethylbenzoate 9a–f moieties. The synthesised compounds were screened for their carbonic anhydrase inhibitory activity (CAI) against four isoforms hCA I, II, IX, and XII. Compounds 7a, 7b, 7c, and 7f exhibited a potent inhibitory activity towards hCAI (Kis = 58.20, 56.30, 33.00, and 43.00 nM), respectively compared to acetazolamide (AAZ) and SLC-0111 (Kis = 250.00 and 5080.00 nM). Compounds 7a, 7b, 7c, 7e, and 7f elicited selectivity over h CA II (Kis = 2.50, 2.10, 56.60,39.60 and 39.00 nM) respectively, relative to AAZ and SLC-0111(Kis = 12.10 and 960.00 nM). Also, compounds 7c, 7f, and 9e displayed selectivity against the tumour-associated isoform hCA IX (Kis = 31.20, 30.00 and 29.00 nM) respectively, compared to AAZ and SLC-0111 (Kis = 25.70 and 45.00 nM). Additionally, compounds 8a and 8f revealed a moderate to superior selectivity towards hCAXII (Kis = 17.00 and 11.00 nM) relative to AAZ and SLC-0111(Kis = 5.70 and 45.00 nM). Molecular docking and ADME prediction studies were performed on the most active compounds to shed light on their interaction with the hot spots of the active site of CA isoforms, in addition to prediction of their pharmacokinetic and physicochemical properties.

Indisulam Reduces Viability and Regulates Apoptotic Gene Expression in Pediatric High-Grade Glioma Cells. Biomedicines 2022; 11:biomedicines11010068. [PMID: 36672576 PMCID: PMC9855339 DOI: 10.3390/biomedicines11010068] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/22/2022] [Revised: 12/13/2022] [Accepted: 12/18/2022] [Indexed: 12/29/2022] Open
Abstract
Pediatric high-grade glioma (pHGG) is one of the most aggressive brain tumors. Treatment includes surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, or combination therapy in children older than 3−5 years of age. These devastating tumors are influenced by the hypoxic microenvironment that coordinatively increases the expression of carbonic anhydrases (CA9 and CA12) that are involved in pH regulation, metabolism, cell invasion, and resistance to therapy. The synthetic sulphonamide Indisulam is a potent inhibitor of CAs. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of Indisulam on CA9 and CA12 enzymes in pHGG cell lines. Our results indicated that, under hypoxia, the gene and protein expression of CA9 and CA12 are increased in pHGG cells. The functional effects of Indisulam on cell proliferation, clonogenic capacity, and apoptosis were measured in vitro. CA9 and CA12 gene and protein expression were analyzed by RT-PCR and western blot. The treatment with Indisulam significantly reduced cell proliferation (dose-time-dependent) and clonogenic capacity (p < 0.05) and potentiated the effect of apoptosis (p < 0.01). Indisulam promoted an imbalance in the anti-apoptotic BCL2 and pro-apoptotic BAX protein expression. Our results demonstrate that Indisulam contributes to apoptosis via imbalance of apoptotic proteins (BAX/BCL2) and suggests a potential to overcome chemotherapy resistance caused by the regulation these proteins.

Abstract
Herein we reported the design and synthesis of two series comprising twenty-two benzenesulfonamides that integrate the s-triazine moiety. Target compounds successfully suppressed the hCA IX, with IC50 ranging from 28.6 to 871 nM. Compounds 5d, 11b, 5b, and 7b were the most active analogues, which inhibited hCA IX isoform in the low nanomolar range (KI = 28.6, 31.9, 33.4, and 36.6 nM, respectively). Furthermore, they were assessed for their cytotoxic activity against a panel of 60 cancer cell lines following US-NCI protocol. According to five-dose assay, 13c showed significant anticancer activity than 5c with GI50-MID values of 25.08 and 189.01 µM, respectively. Additionally, 13c's effects on wound healing, cell cycle disruption, and apoptosis induction in NCI-H460 cancer cells were examined. Further, docking studies combined with molecular dynamic simulation showed a stable complex with high binding affinity of 5d to hCA IX, exploiting a favourable H-bond and lipophilic interactions.HIGHLIGHTSCarbonic anhydrase (CA) inhibitors comprising rigid and flexible linkers were developed.Compound 5d is the most potent CA IX inhibitor in the study (IC50: 28.6 nM).Compounds 5c and 13c displayed the greatest antiproliferative activity towards 60 cell lines.Compound 13c exposed constructive outcomes on normal cell lines, metastasis, and wound healing.Molecular docking and molecular dynamics (MDs) simulation was utilised to study binding mode.

Abstract
Bladder cancer is a common malignant tumor of the urinary system. Cystoscopy, urine cytology, and CT are the routine diagnostic methods. However, there are some problems such as low sensitivity and difficulty in staging, which must be urgently supplemented by novel diagnostic methods. Surgery, intravesical instillation, systemic chemotherapy, and radiotherapy are the main clinical treatments for bladder cancer. It is difficult for conventional treatment to deal with tumor recurrence, progression and drug resistance. In addition, the treatment agents usually have the defects of poor specific distribution ability to target tumor tissues and side effects. The rapid development of nanomedicine has brought hope for the treatment of bladder cancer in reducing side effects, enhancing tumor inhibition effects, and anti-drug resistance. Overall, we review the new progression of nano-platforms in the diagnosis and treatment of bladder cancer.

Abstract
Carbonic anhydrase VIII (CAVIII) is a member of the CA family, while CA8 is the oncogene. Here we observed increased expression of CAVIII with high expression in colorectal cancer tissues. CAVIII is also expressed in more aggressive types of human colorectal cancer cells. Upregulated CAVIII expression in SW480 cell lines increased vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and reduced miRNA16-5p. Conversely, knockdown of the CAVIII results in VEGF decline by up-regulated miRNA16-5p. Moreover, the collection of different grades of CAVIII expression CRC cells supernatant co-culture with endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) promotes the ability of tube formation in soft agar and migration in the Transwell experiment, indicating that CAVIII might facilitate cancer-cell-released VEGF via the inhibition of miRNA16-5p signaling. Furthermore, in the xenograft tumor angiogenesis model, knockdown of CAVIII significantly reduced tumor growth and tumor-associated angiogenesis. Taken together, our results prove that the CAVIII/miR-16-5p signaling pathway might function as a metastasis suppressor in CRC. Targeting CAVIII/miR-16-5p may provide a strategy for blocking its metastasis.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Hypoxic tumors, unlike normal tissues, overexpress proteins involved in oxygen sensing, metabolism, pH regulation, angiogenesis, immunological response, and other survival mechanisms, which are under investigation as antitumor drug targets. AREAS COVERED Carbonic anhydrase (CA) isoforms CA IX and XII are among these validated antitumor/antimetastatic drug targets, with several of their inhibitors undergoing preclinical or clinical-stage investigations. Alone or in combination with other chemotherapeutic agents or radiotherapy, CA IX/XII inhibitors, such as SLC-0111, SLC-149, S4, 6A10, etc., were shown to inhibit the growth of the primary tumor, metastases, and invasiveness of many tumor types, being also amenable for the development of imaging agents. EXPERT OPINION SLC-0111 is the most investigated agent, being in Phase Ib/II clinical trials. In addition to its interference with extracellular acidifications, it has been shown to promote ferroptosis in cancer cells, another antitumor mechanism of this compound and the entire class. A large number sulfonamide and non-sulfonamide inhibitors have been developed using SLC-0111 as lead in the last three years, together with hybrid agents incorporating CA inhibitors and other anticancer chemotypes, including cytotoxins, telomerase, thioredoxin or P-glycoprotein inhibitors, adenosine A2A receptor antagonists, pyrophosphatase/phosphodiesterase-3 inhibitors or antimetabolites. All of them showed significant antitumor activity.
