[PMID: 37108498 PMCID: PMC10139052 DOI: 10.3390/ijms24087336] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/08/2022] [Revised: 03/29/2023] [Accepted: 04/14/2023] [Indexed: 04/29/2023] Open
Abstract
A highly stereo-selective, one-pot, multicomponent method was chosen to synthesize the novel functionalized 1, 3-cycloaddition spirooxindoles (SOXs) (4a-4h). Synthesized SOXs were analyzed for their drug-likeness and ADME parameters and screened for their anticancer activity. Our molecular docking analysis revealed that among all derivatives of SOXs (4a-4h), 4a has a substantial binding affinity (∆G) -6.65, -6.55, -8.73, and -7.27 Kcal/mol with CD-44, EGFR, AKR1D1, and HER-2, respectively. A functional study demonstrated that SOX 4a has a substantial impact on human cancer cell phenotypes exhibiting abnormality in cytoplasmic and nuclear architecture as well as granule formation leading to cell death. SOX 4a treatment robustly induced reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation in cancer cells as observed by enhanced DCFH-DA signals. Overall, our results suggest that SOX (4a) targets CD-44, EGFR, AKR1D1, and HER-2 and induces ROS generation in cancer cells. We conclude that SOX (4a) could be explored as a potential chemotherapeutic molecule against various cancers in appropriate pre-clinical in vitro and in vivo model systems.

Abstract
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common type of dementia, the exact etiology of the disease has not been known yet. The use of single-target drugs limits the efficacy of drugs and has certain side effects. In this study, the 'hidden' multi-target strategy was used in combination with chrysin's metal chelating site and rivastigmine's anti-cholinesterase pharmacophore to form an ester, which improves the hydrophobicity and protects the phenolic hydroxyl group at the same time. Four derivatives (1-4) were synthesized as the hidden multifunctional agents for AD therapy. Most of the compounds displayed good activities of anti-cholinesterase, antioxidant, appropriate blood brain barrier (BBB) penetration and certain inhibitory activity of β-amyloid (Aβ) aggregation. Compound 3 was demonstrated as the highest selective butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE) inhibitor and targeted both the catalytic active site (CAS) and the peripheral anion site (PAS). And it could be hydrolyzed by BuChE to release chrysin with good ability to chelate Cu2+ and Fe2+. At the same time, phenol fragment can exert its good antioxidant effect. Overall, these findings demonstrated that compound 3 might be considered as a potential hidden multifunctional candidate in the therapy of AD.

Abstract
The our previous study synthesized the chrysin-chromene-spirooxindole hybrids 3, and further found compound 3e had good antitumor activity against A549 cells in vitro through multi-target co-regulation of the p53 signalling pathway to inhibit the proliferation of A549 cells. This study was designed to evaluate the antitumor effects of compound 3e on Lewis lung carcinoma of C57BL/6 mice in vivo. Compound 3e significantly inhibited the growth of transplanted tumors in C57BL/6 mice and induced the apoptosis of tumor cells. Further studies showed that compound 3e activates and expands the anti-cancer activity of p53 by inhibiting the expression of MDM2, Akt and 5-Lox proteins, accordingly promotes the expressions Bax and inhibit the Bcl-2 protein, the release of Cyt c as well, which resulted in the activation of apoptotic pathway in tumor cells eventually. Moreover, Compound 3e inhibited tumor metastasis by down-regulating VEGF, ICAM-1 and MMP-2 protein expression and angiogenesis. These results suggested that compound 3e exerts an effective antitumor activity in vivo through activating the p53 signaling pathway, which could be exploited as a promising candidate for the development of new anti-tumour drugs.

Abstract
The first example of Ca(OH)2-activated p-regioselective synthesis of chrysin-fused chromene was reported through a cascade Michael/cyclization of chrysin and arylidenemalononitrile. The newly synthesized structurally diverse 2-amino 3-cyano chromene-chrysin hybrids 3 were evaluated for their in vitro anticancer activity, and some of the compounds showed stronger anti-proliferative activity against K562, PC-3, A549 and NCI-H1299 than parent compound chrysin, and demonstrated equipotent potency compared with the reference drug of cisplatin. In particular, compound 3h had the highest cytotoxicity towards K562 cells (IC50 = 6.41 µM). Furthermore, compound 3h induced apoptosis of K562 cells in a concentration-dependent manner, as well as induced the apoptosis possibly through promoting the formation of apoptotic DNA of cancer cell via the intrinsic apoptotic pathway. Thus, our results provide in vitro evidence that compound 3h may be a potential candidate for the development of new anti-tumour drugs.
