Abstract
A series of N 10 -substituted acridone-2-carboxamide derivatives were synthesized and evaluated for their potent anti-cancer agents targeting AKT kinase. In vitro cytotoxicity activity of the target compounds was tested against breast cancer cell lines (MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231). Among the tested compounds, four compounds (7f, 8d, 8e, and 8f) exhibited promising anti-cancer activity against both cancer cell lines. Notably, compound 8f demonstrated the highest activity against MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 at IC50 values of 4.72 and 5.53 μM, respectively. In vitro AKT kinase activity revealed that compounds 7f and 8f were the most potent AKT inhibitors with IC50 values of 5.38 and 6.90 μM, respectively. In addition, the quantitative ELISA method of testing confirmed that compound 8f effectively inhibited cell proliferation by suppressing the activation of p-AKT Ser473. Furthermore, molecular docking studies revealed that compound 8f can bind well to the active site of the AKT enzyme. The in silico ADME studies suggested that all synthesized molecules showed good oral bioavailability with a low-toxicity profile and can be used for further optimization as AKT kinase inhibitors in the treatment of breast cancer.

A comprehensive review on acridone based derivatives as future anti-cancer agents and their structure activity relationships. Eur J Med Chem 2022; 239:114527. [PMID: 35717872 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejmech.2022.114527] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/15/2021] [Revised: 05/27/2022] [Accepted: 06/07/2022] [Indexed: 11/03/2022]
Abstract
The development of drug resistance and severe side-effects has reduced the clinical efficacy of the existing anti-cancer drugs available in the market. Thus, there is always a constant need to develop newer anti-cancer drugs with minimal adverse effects. Researchers all over the world have been focusing on various alternative strategies to discover novel, potent, and target specific molecules for cancer therapy. In this direction, several heterocyclic compounds are being explored but amongst them one promising heterocycle is acridone which has attracted the attention of medicinal chemists and gained huge biological importance as acridones are found to act on different therapeutically proven molecular targets, overcome ABC transporters mediated drug resistance and DNA intercalation in cancer cells. Some of these acridone derivatives have reached clinical studies as these heterocycles have shown huge potential in cancer therapeutics and imaging. Here, the authors have attempted to compile and make some recommendations of acridone based derivatives concerning their cancer biological targets and in vitro-cytotoxicity based on drug design and novelty to increase their therapeutic potential. This review also provides some important insights on the design, receptor targeting and future directions for the development of acridones as possible clinically effective anti-cancer agents.

Abstract
Acridine-based compounds possess anticancer activities by intercalating to DNA. Although they have chemotherapeutic potential, acridine-based compounds are not used to treat cancer. In this study, 2, N10-acridone derivatives are designed and synthesized based on acridone, a ketone derivative of acridine. Herein, acridone is functionalized with alkyl side chains containing terminal nitrogen-based moieties at the N10-position and substituted at the C2-position. The products are evaluated for in vitro cytotoxicity against four cancer cell lines: Molt-3, HepG2, A549, and HuCCA-1. The derivative bearing two butyl piperidine side chains at the C2- and N10-positions is the most active, with IC50 values ranging from 2.96 to 9.46 µM. Molecular modeling studies supported the binding of the derivatives to DNA by intercalation, thereby confirming the observed cytotoxic effects.

Abstract
Oil red O (ORO) is a commonly used dye for the tissue staining, which recognizes nitroglycerin and cholesterol esters. In this paper, we describe an unexpected finding that ORO can be fluorescently lighted up upon meeting dsDNA with emission peak localized at 600 nm, although it almost does not fluoresce by itself. This property triggered us to test its potential as a dsDNA fluorescence probe. The interaction of dsDNA and ORO was demonstrated by spectral and thermodynamic analysis and several other means. The fluorescence of ORO was gradually increased following the addition of dsDNA, which showed linear response toward dsDNA in the concentration range from 0.02 to 0.64 mg/mL with a detection limit of 0.69 μg/mL. Moreover, ORO showed excellent selectivity when testing with a variety of dsDNA-like biomolecules. Besides, ORO resisted photobleaching and worked very well under biological background. Altogether, we propose here a new nucleic acid lighting up fluorescence probe for double stranded dsDNA detection.

Abstract
In this study, two Ni(II) complexes, namely [Ni(HL1)2(OAc)2] (1) and [Ni(L2)2] (2) (where HL1 and HL2 are (E)-1-((1-(2-hydroxyethyl)-1H-pyrazol-5-ylimino)methyl)-naphthalen-2-ol) and (E)-ethyl-5-((2-hydroxynaphthalen-1-yl)methyleneamino)-1-methyl-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxylate, respectively), were synthesized and characterized by X-ray crystallography, Electrospray Ionization Mass Spectrometry (ESI-MS), elemental analysis, and IR. Their uptake in biological macromolecules and cancer cells were preliminarily investigated through electronic absorption (UV-Vis), circular dichroism (CD) and fluorescence quenching measurements. Bovine serum albumin (BSA) interaction experiments were investigated by spectroscopy which showed that the complexes and ligands could quench the intrinsic fluorescence of BSA through an obvious static quenching process. The spectroscopic studies indicated that these complexes could bind to DNA via groove, non-covalent, and electrostatic interactions. Furthermore, in vitro methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) assays and Annexin V/PI flow cytometry experiments were performed to assess the antitumor capacity of the complexes against eight cell lines. The results show that both of the complexes possess reasonable cytotoxicities.

Abstract
A series of novel coumarin-containing α-aminophosphonates were synthesized and evaluated for their antitumor activities against Human colorectal (HCT-116), human nasopharyngeal carcinoma (human KB) and human lung adenocarcinoma (MGC-803) cell lines in vitro. Compared with 7-hydroxy-4-methylcoumarin (4-MU), most of the derivatives showed an improved antitumor activity. Compound 8j (diethyl 1-(3-(4-methyl-2-oxo-2H-chromen-7-yloxy) propanamido)-1-phenylethyl-Phosphonate), with IC50 value of 8.68 μM against HCT-116 cell lines, was about 12 fold than that of unsubstituted parent compound. The mechanism investigation proved that 8c, 8d, 8f and 8j were achieved through the induction of cell apoptosis by G1 cell-cycle arrest. In addition, the further mechanisms of compound 8j-induced apoptosis in HCT-116 cells demonstrated that compound 8j induced the activations of caspase-9 and caspase-3 for causing cell apoptosis, and altered anti- and pro-apoptotic proteins. DNA-binding experiments suggested that some derivatives bind to DNA through intercalation. The results seem to imply the presence of an important synergistic effect between coumarin and aminophosphonate, which could contribute to the strong chelating properties of aminophosphonate moiety.

Abstract
A series of xanthene derivatives were prepared from cyclohexane-1,3-dione and aromatic aldehydes through Knoevenagel–Michael and cyclisation reactions in methanol:ethanol mixture (1:1), catalysed by a very small amount of l-proline at room temperature. Isomeric tetraketones were synthesised from dimedone and aromatic aldehydes under the same condition. Condensation of them with amines gave acridione derivatives. The crystal structure of an acridione was obtained and determined by X-ray single-crystal diffraction.

Abstract
A series of novel 9(10H)-acridinone derivatives with terminal amino substituents at C2 position on the acridinone ring were synthesized and studied for their antiproliferative activity and underlying mechanisms. These compounds demonstrated promising cytotoxicity to leukemia cells CCRF-CEM, displaying IC(50) values in the low micromolar range. Structure-activity relationships (SAR) indicated that the compound 6d bearing a pyrrolidine substituent and 8a with a methyl ammonium side chain displayed higher cytotoxicity to CCRF-CEM cells and also solid tumor cells A549, HepG2, and MCF7. Furthermore, the compounds 6d and 8a had strong binding activity to calf thymus DNA (ct DNA), as detected by UV absorption and fluorescence quenching assays, but limited inhibitory activity to human topoisomerase 1 (topo 1). Taken together, this study discovered a series of new synthetic 9(10H)-acridinone derivatives with potent DNA binding and anticancer activity.
