Abstract
A series of novel 3,4-dihydrobenzo[4,5]imidazo[1,2-a][1,3,5]triazine (BIT) derivatives were designed and synthesized. In vitro antiproliferative activity was detected toward two human colorectal adenocarcinoma cell lines (CaCo-2 and HT-29) and one human dermal microvascular endothelial cell line (HMVEC-d). The most active compounds, namely 2-4 and 8, were further investigated to clarify the mechanism behind their biological activity. Through immunofluorescence assay, we identified the target of these molecules to be the microtubule cytoskeleton with subsequent formation of dense microtubule accumulation, particularly at the periphery of the cancer cells, as observed in paclitaxel-treated cells. Overall, these results highlight BIT derivatives as robust and feasible candidates deserving to be further developed in the search for novel potent antiproliferative microtubule-targeting agents.

Abstract
Carbonic anhydrases (CAs, EC 4.2.1.1) are ubiquitous isozymes involved in crucial physiological and pathological events, representing the targets of inhibitors with several therapeutic applications. In this connection, we report a new class of carbonic anhydrase inhibitors, based on the thiopyrano-fused pyrazole scaffold to which a pendant 4-sulfamoylphenyl moiety was attached. The new sulfonamides 3a-e were designed as constrained analogues of celecoxib and valdecoxib. The most interesting feature of sulfonamides 3 was their predominantly strong inhibition of human (h) CA I and II, as well as those of the mycobacterial β-class enzymes (Rv1284, Rv3273, and Rv3588c), whereas their inhibitory action against hCA III, IV, VA, VB, VI, VII, IX, XII, XIII, and XIV was found to be at least 2 orders of magnitude lower. X-ray crystallography and structural superposition studies made it possible to explain the very distinct inhibition profile of the tricyclic sulfonamides, different from those of celecoxib and valdecoxib.

Abstract
Previous investigations on the biological effects of 3α-hydroxymasticadienonic acid (1) have demonstrated both anti-inflammatory and cytotoxic activities. However, neither the molecular mechanism of cytotoxic action nor the possible intracellular target(s) have been reported so far for this compound. The crucial role played by mitochondria on both cell survival and death, due to production of ATP and intrinsic apoptosis, respectively, prompted a study of the effect of 1 on isolated rat liver mitochondria. It was found that 1 causes a dose-dependent impairment of mitochondrial bioenergetic parameters, such as the respiratory control index and transmembrane electrical potential. Moreover, in the presence of Ca(2+), at a 10 μM concentration, 1 resulted in the induction of membrane permeability transition by oxidative stress, leading to the release of pro-apoptotic factors. At a 100 μM concentration, compound 1 affected mitochondrial Ca(2+) transport by inhibiting the accumulation of the cation in the mitochondrial matrix. Altogether, it was demonstrated that 1 induces an impairment of mitochondrial functions that may account for the cytotoxicity exhibited by this compound.

Abstract
A series of novel 5-(3-aryl-1H-pyrazol-5-yl)-2-(6-methoxy-3-methylbenzofuran-2-yl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole derivatives has been synthesized from 6-methoxy-3-methylbenzofuran-2-carboxylic acid and ethyl 3-aryl-1H-pyrazole-5-carboxylate. The structures of compounds obtained were determined by IR, (1)H NMR and HRMS spectra. Typically, the spatial structure of compound 7e was determined by using X-ray diffraction analysis. UV-vis absorption and fluorescence spectral characteristics of the compounds in dichloromethane and acetonitrile were investigated. The results showed that the absorption maxima of the compounds vary from 321 to 339 nm depending on the substituents in N-1 position of pyrazole moiety and para position of benzene moiety. The maximum emission spectra of compounds in two different solvents were mainly dependent on groups in N-1 position of pyrazole moiety. The intensity of absorption and fluorescence was also correlated with substituents on the aryl ring bonded to pyrazole moiety. In addition, the absorption and emission spectra of these compounds change with increasing solvent polarity.

Abstract
Five benzimidazole compounds containing pyrazole group were synthesized via one-step reaction of o-phenylenediamine and 1-arylpyrazole-4-carbaldehyde in ethanol under mild conditions. The composition and structure of resultant benzimidazole compounds were analyzed by means of elemental analysis, mass spectrometry, (1)H-nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and X-ray single crystal diffraction. The ultraviolet-visible light spectra and fluorescent spectra of the products were measured. Their ground-state (S(0)) equilibrium geometries and vibrational frequencies were determined based on B3LYP method, and their first excited-state (S(1)) geometries were fully optimized based on 6-31G (d, p) basis set of TD-B3LYP method. Besides, the spectroscopic properties of the products were computed based on cc-pVTZ basis set of TD-B3LYP method and compared with corresponding experimental data. It has been found that benzimidazole compounds containing pyrazole group can be readily synthesized in a high yield via one-step reaction of o-phenylenediamine and 1-arylpyrazole-4-carbaldehyde in ethanol solvent. The fluorescence properties of the five synthesized compounds are closely related to their molecular structure; and their computed fluorescence spectra well correspond to their experimental values. Moreover, they have stable structure and strong fluorescence, showing potential application in time-resolved fluoroimmunoassay and DNA probe.

Abstract
Novel benzo[3',2':5,6]thiopyrano[3,2-b]indol-10(11H)-ones 1a-v were synthesized and evaluated for their antiproliferative activity in an in vitro assay of human tumor cell lines (HL-60 and HeLa). Compounds 1e-v, substituted at the 11-position with a basic side chain, showed a significant ability to inhibit cell growth with IC(50) values in the low micromolar range. Linear dichroism measurements showed that all 11-dialkylaminoalkyl substituted derivatives 1e-v behave as DNA-intercalating agents. Fluorimetric titrations demonstrated their specificity in binding to A-T rich regions, and molecular modeling studies were performed on the most active derivatives (1e, 1i, 1p) to characterize in detail the complexation mechanism of these benzothiopyranoindoles to DNA. A relaxation assay evidenced a dose-dependent inhibition of topoisomerase II activity that appeared in accordance with the antiproliferative capacity. Finally, for the most cytotoxic derivative, 1e, a topoisomerase II poisoning effect was also demonstrated, along with a weak inhibition of topoisomerase I-mediated relaxation.
