Abstract
The human phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate 5-kinase type I α (hPIP5K1α) plays a key role in the development of prostate cancer. In this work, seventeen derivatives of the natural diterpene totarol were prepared by copper(I)-catalysed Huisgen 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction of the correspondingO-propargylated totarol with aryl or alkyl azides and screened for their inhibitory activities toward hPIP5K1α. Five compounds, 3a, 3e, 3f, 3i, and 3r, strongly inhibited the enzyme activity with IC50 values of 1.44, 0.46, 1.02, 0.79, and 3.65 µM, respectively, with the most potent inhibitor 3e 13-[(1-(3-nitrophenyl)triazol-4yl)methoxy]-totara-8,11,13-triene). These compounds were evaluated on their antiproliferative effects in a panel of prostate cancer cell lines. Compound 3r inhibited the proliferation of LNCaP, PC3 and DU145 cells at 20 µM, strongly, but also has strong cytotoxic effects on all tested cells.

Abstract
Light, as an external stimulus, has begun to engage a phenomenal role in the diverse field of science. Encouraged by recent progress from biology to materials chemistry, various light-responsive fluorescent probes have been developed. Herein, we present a 1,8-naphthalimide-based probe NIT-NO2 capable of releasing nitric oxide (NO) along with the formation of fluorescent organic nanoparticles (FONs) upon exposure to near-visible UV light. By synthesizing the photoproduct NIT-OH, we unveiled that initially NIT-NO2 released NO and converted to NIT-OH, while prolonged irradiation led to the formation of FONs that is corroborated by the red-edge excitation shift as well as microscopic investigation. Finally, we have successfully applied NIT-NO2 and NIT-OH for specific labeling of lipid droplets and plasma membranes, respectively, and demonstrated the switching from lipid droplets to plasma membranes by using light as a stimulus. These two probes show unique imaging applications inside the cells depending on the polarity and hydrophobicity of the environment. This work paves a fascinating way for the generation of excitation-dependent FONs from a small organic fluorophore and highlights its potency as an exclusive imaging tool.

Anticancer Activity and Topoisomerase II Inhibition of Naphthalimides with ω-Hydroxylalkylamine Side-Chains of Different Lengths. Med Chem 2019; 15:550-560. [PMID: 30207241 DOI: 10.2174/1573406414666180912105851] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/15/2018] [Revised: 07/31/2018] [Accepted: 09/03/2018] [Indexed: 12/15/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The substituted 1,8-Naphthalimides (1H-benzo[de]isoquinoline-1,3(2H)- diones) are known as DNA intercalators stabilizing DNA-Topoisomerase II complexes. This interaction disrupts the cleavage-relegation equilibrium of Topo II, resulting in formation of broken strands of DNA. OBJECTIVE To investigate the influence of type of substituents and substitution positions in 1,8- naphthalimde skeleton on the inhibition of Topoisomerase II activity. METHODS The starting 1,8-naphthalimide were prepared from acenaphthene by introduction of appropriate substituents followed by condensation with ω-hydroxylakylamines of different chain length. The substituents were introduced to 1,8-naphthalimide molecule by nucleophilic substitution of leaving groups like nitro or bromo present in 4 or 4,5- positions using the ω- hydroxylalkylamines. The bioactivity of obtained compounds was examined in model cell lines. RESULTS Antiproliferative activity of selected compounds against HCT 116 human colon cancer cells, human non-small cell lung cells A549 and non-tumorigenic BEAS-2B human bronchial epithelium cells was examined. Several of investigated compounds exhibit a significant activity (IC50 µM to 7 µM) against model cancer cell lines. It was demonstrated that upon treatment with concentration of 200 µM, all derivatives display Topo II inhibitory activity, which may be compared with activity of Amonafide. CONCLUSION The replacement of the nitro groups in the chromophore slightly reduces its anticancer activities, whereas the presence of both nitro group and ω-hydroxylalkylamine chain resulted in seriously increased anticancer activity. Obtained compounds showed Topo II inhibitory activity, moreover, influence of the substitution pattern on the ability to inhibit Topo II activity and cancer cells proliferation was observed.

Abstract
Naphthoquinones are among the most active natural products obtained from plants and microorganisms. Naphthoquinones exert their biological activities through pleiotropic mechanisms that include reactivity against cell nucleophiles, generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), and inhibition of proteins. Here, we report a mechanistic antiproliferative study performed in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae for several derivatives of three important natural naphthoquinones: lawsone, juglone, and β-lapachone. We have found that (i) the free hydroxyl group of lawsone and juglone modulates toxicity; (ii) lawsone and juglone derivatives differ in their mechanisms of action, with ROS generation being more important for the former; and (iii) a subset of derivatives possess the capability to disrupt mitochondrial function, with β-lapachones being the most potent compounds in this respect. In addition, we have cross-compared yeast results with antibacterial and antitumor activities. We discuss the relationship between the mechanistic findings, the antiproliferative activities, and the physicochemical properties of the naphthoquinones.
