New phenothiazine conjugates as apoptosis inducing agents: Design, synthesis, In-vitro anti-cancer screening and 131I-radiolabeling for in-vivo evaluation. Bioorg Chem 2023; 141:106924. [PMID: 37871390 DOI: 10.1016/j.bioorg.2023.106924] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/22/2023] [Revised: 10/06/2023] [Accepted: 10/16/2023] [Indexed: 10/25/2023]
Abstract
Phenothiazines (PTZs) are a group of compounds characterized by the presence of the 10H-dibenzo-[b,e]-1,4-thiazine system. PTZs used in clinics as antipsychotic drugs with other diverse biological activities. The current aim of the study is to investigate and understand the effect of potent PTZs compounds using a group of In-vitro and In-vivo assays. A total of seventeen novel phenothiazine derivatives have been designed, synthesized, and evaluated primarily in-vitro for their ability to inhibit proliferation activity against NCI-60 cancer cell lines, including several multi-drug resistant (MDR) tumor cell lines. Almost all compounds were active and displayed promising cellular activities with GI50 values in the sub-micromolar range. Four of the most promising derivatives (4b, 4h, 4g and 6e) have been further tested against two selected sensitive cancer cell lines (colon cancer; HCT-116 and breast cancer; MDA-MB231). The apoptosis assay showed that all the selected compounds were able to induce early apoptosis and compound 6e was able to induce additional cellular necrosis. Cell cycle assay showed all selected compounds were able to induce cell cycle arrest at sub-molecular phase of G0-G1 with compound 6e induced cell cycle arrest at G2M in HCT-116 cells. Accordingly, the apoptotic effect of the selected compounds was extensively investigated on genetic level and Casp-3, Casp-9 and Bax gene were up-regulated with down-regulation of Bcl-2 gene suggesting the activation of both intrinsic and extrinsic pathways. In-vivo evaluation of the antitumor activity of compound 4b in solid tumor bearing mice showed promising therapeutic effect with manifestation of dose and time dependent toxic effects at higher doses. For better evaluation of the degree of localization of 4b, its 131I-congener (131I-4b) was injected intravenously in Ehrlich solid tumor bearing mice that showed good localization at tumor site with rapid distribution and clearance from the blood. In-silico study suggested NADPH oxidases (NOXs) as potential molecular target. The compounds introduced in the current study work provided a cutting-edge phenothiazine hybrid scaffold with promising anti-proliferation action that may suggest their anti-cancer activity.

Pharmaceuticals (Basel) 2023; 16:888. [PMID: 37375835 DOI: 10.3390/ph16060888] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/19/2023] [Revised: 06/07/2023] [Accepted: 06/12/2023] [Indexed: 06/29/2023] Open
Abstract
In the search for innovative approaches to cancer chemotherapy, a chemical library of 49 cyanochalcones, 1a-r, 2a-o, and 3a-p, was designed as dual inhibitors of human farnesyltransferase (FTIs) and tubulin polymerization (MTIs) (FTIs/MTIs), two important biological targets in oncology. This approach is innovative since the same molecule would be able to interfere with two different mitotic events of the cancer cells and prevent these cells from developing an emergency route and becoming resistant to anticancer agents. Compounds were synthesized by the Claisen-Schmidt condensation of aldehydes with N-3-oxo-propanenitriles under classical magnetic stirring and under sonication. Newly synthesized compounds were screened for their potential to inhibit human farnesyltransferase, tubulin polymerization, and cancer cell growth in vitro. This study allowed for the identification of 22 FTIs and 8 dual FTIs/MTIs inhibitors. The most effective molecule was carbazole-cyanochalcone 3a, bearing a 4-dimethylaminophenyl group (IC50 (h-FTase) = 0.12 µM; IC50 (tubulin) = 0.24 µM) with better antitubulin activity than the known inhibitors that were previously reported, phenstatin and (-)-desoxypodophyllotoxin. The docking of the dual inhibitors was realized in both the active site of FTase and in the colchicine binding site of tubulin. Such compounds with a dual inhibitory profile are excellent clinical candidates for the treatment of human cancers and offer new research perspectives in the search for new anti-cancer drugs.

Abstract
The molecular hybridization approach has been used to develop compounds with improved efficacy by combining two or more pharmacophores of bioactive scaffolds. In this context, hybridization of various relevant pharmacophores with phenothiazine derivatives has resulted in pertinent compounds with diverse biological activities, interacting with specific or multiple targets. In fact, the development of new drugs or drug candidates based on phenothiazine system has been a promising approach due to the diverse activities associated with this tricyclic system, traditionally present in compounds with antipsychotic, antihistaminic and antimuscarinic effects. Actually, the pharmacological actions of phenothiazine hybrids include promising antibacterial, antifungal, anticancer, anti-inflammatory, antimalarial, analgesic and multi-drug resistance reversal properties. The present review summarizes the progress in the development of phenothiazine hybrids and their biological activity.

Abstract
A mild and high efficient method to prepare indolizines by two-component reaction with the acid as the catalyst was developed. In this reaction, a new ring efficiently formed in one-step reaction. A wide range of substrates could be applied and the desired products were obtained in 8-95% yields under metal-free conditions. Different indolizine derivatives (compounds 3a-3n) were synthesized by general conditions and microwave irradiation conditions, and compound 3a gave the best results with an isolated yield of 95% and 82%, respectively. The structures of synthesized compounds were characterized by spectral analysis, and compound 3m was confirmed by single crystal X-ray analysis. UV-vis absorption and fluorescence properties of these compounds were correlated with substituent groups on indolizine rings.

Bioorg Chem 2021; 110:104795.

Abstract
Virtual screening of commercially available molecular entities by using CDRUG, structure-based virtual screening, and similarity identified eight new derivatives of 3-phenyl-1H-indole-2-carbohydrazide with anti-proliferative activities. The molecules were tested experimentally for inhibition of tubulin polymerisation, which revealed furan-3-ylmethylene-3-phenyl-1H-indole-2-carbohydrazide (27a) as the most potent candidate. Molecule 27a was able to induce G2/M phase arrest in A549 cell line, similar to other tubulin inhibitors. Synthetic modifications of 27a were focussed on small substitutions on the furan ring, halogenation at R1 position and alteration of furyl connectivity. Derivatives 27b, 27d and 27i exhibited the strongest tubulin inhibition activities and were comparable to 27a. Bromine substitution at R1 position showed most prominent anticancer activities; derivatives 27b-27d displayed the strongest activities against HuCCA-1 cell line and were more potent than doxorubicin and the parent molecule 27a with IC50 values <0.5 μM. Notably, 27b with a 5-methoxy substitution on furan displayed the strongest activity against HepG2 cell line (IC50 = 0.34 µM), while 27d displayed stronger activity against A549 cell line (IC50 = 0.43 µM) compared to doxorubicin and 27a. Fluorine substitutions at the R1 position tended to show more modest anti-tubulin and anticancer activities, and change of 2-furyl to 3-furyl was tolerable. The new derivatives, thiophenyl 26, displayed the strongest activity against A549 cell line (IC50 = 0.19 µM), while 1-phenylethylidene 21b and 21c exhibited more modest anticancer activities with unclear mechanisms of action; 26 and 21c demonstrated G2/M phase arrest, but showed weak tubulin inhibitory properties. Molecular docking suggests the series inhibit tubulin at the colchicine site, in agreement with the experimental findings. The calculated molecular descriptors indicated that the molecules obey Lipinski's rule which suggests the molecules are drug-like structures.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Indolizines are structural isomers with indoles. Although several indole-based commercial drugs are available in the market, none of the indolizine-based drugs are available up-to-date. Natural and synthetic indolizines have a wide-range of pharmaceutical importance such as antitumor, antimycobacterial, antagonist, and antiproliferative activities. This prompted us to search and collect all possible data about the pharmacological importance of indolizine to open an avenue to the researchers in exploring more medicinal applications of such biologically important compounds. AREAS COVERED The current review article covers the advancements in the biological and pharmacological activities of indolizine-based compounds during the last decade. The covered areas of this work involved anticancer, anti-HIV-1, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, anti-tubercular, larvicidal, anti-schizophrenia, CRTh2 antagonist's activities in addition to enzymatic inhibitory activity. EXPERT OPINION The discovery of indolizine drugs will be a major breakthrough as compared with their widely available drug-containing indole isosteres. Major work collected here was focused on anticancer, anti-tubercular, anti-inflammatory, and enzymatic inhibitory activities. The SAR study of the reported biologically active indolizines is summarized throughout the review whenever highlighted to the rationale the behavior of inhibitory action. Several indolizines with certain functions provided great enhancement in the therapeutic activities comparing with reference drugs.

[PMID: 27707624 DOI: 10.1016/j.bmc.2016.09.063] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/23/2016] [Revised: 09/01/2016] [Accepted: 09/24/2016] [Indexed: 11/21/2022]
Abstract
The phenothiazine group has been identified as a suitable A ring in the structure of tubulin polymerization inhibitors. In our search to identify more potent inhibitors, a study of different isosteric tricyclic groups as new potential A rings was first realized and permitted to identify 1-azaphenothiazine and iminodibenzyl as favorable modulations providing compounds with improved activity against tubulin. An investigation of the methylene group as the connector between the A and B rings revealed that the "CH2" bridge was tolerated, improving the biological potency when the A unit was of phenothiazine, 1-azaphenothiazine or iminodibenzyl type. Molecules 6-8 and 12 showed increased biological activity in comparison to parent phenstatin 2 on COLO 205 colon cancer cell line. The most antineoplastic agent in the current study was phenothiazine 5 displaying a GI50 of 25nM against the melanoma MDA-MB-435 cell line.

Pharmacological exploitation of the phenothiazine antipsychotics to develop novel antitumor agents-A drug repurposing strategy. Sci Rep 2016; 6:27540.

Abstract
Phenothiazines (PTZs) have been used for the antipsychotic drugs for centuries. However, some of these PTZs have been reported to exhibit antitumor effects by targeting various signaling pathways in vitro and in vivo. Thus, this study was aimed at exploiting trifluoperazine, one of PTZs, to develop potent antitumor agents. This effort culminated in A4 [10-(3-(piperazin-1-yl)propyl)-2-(trifluoromethyl)-10H-phenothiazine] which exhibited multi-fold higher apoptosis-inducing activity than the parent compound in oral cancer cells. Compared to trifluoperazine, A4 demonstrated similar regulation on the phosphorylation or expression of multiple molecular targets including Akt, p38, and ERK. In addition, A4 induced autophagy, as evidenced by increased expression of the autophagy biomarkers LC3B-II and Atg5, and autophagosomes formation. The antitumor activity of A4 also related to production of reactive oxygen species and adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase. Importantly, the antitumor utility of A4 was extended in vivo as it, administrated at 10 and 20 mg/kg intraperitoneally, suppressed the growth of Ca922 xenograft tumors. In conclusion, the ability of A4 to target diverse aspects of cancer cell growth suggests its value in oral cancer therapy.

Abstract
New phenothiazine derivatives 6-20 have been designed, synthesized and evaluated in vitro for their ability to inhibit tubulin polymerization and antiproliferative activity against 60 cancer cell lines, including several multi-drug resistant (MDR) tumor cell lines. The phenothiazine unit may successfully replace the classical 3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyle A ring of parent combretastatin A-4 or phenstatin, confirming previous studies. The most promising structural modulations have been realized on the B ring, the 2'-fluoro-4'-methoxy substitution in compound 6 and the 2'-trifluoromethyl-4'-methoxy substitution in compound 7 providing the best antitubulin and antitumor activity in the current study. Compounds 6-8 and 16 exhibited more important cell growth inhibition than parent phenstatin 2 on human colon Duke's type D, colorectal adenocarcinoma COLO 205 and on human kidney adenocarcinoma A498 cell lines. 10-Methylphenothiazine derivatives 19 and 20 did not show biological activity but exerted bright fluorescence and solvatochromism effects. These molecules deserve further chemical efforts in order to provide valuable tools for biophysical studies.

Abstract
With the aim of investigating new analogues of phenstatin with an indolizin-3-yl unit, in particular as the B-ring, three new series of compounds (6-8, 9-34 and 54) were synthesized and tested for interactions with tubulin polymerization and evaluated for cytotoxicity on an NCI-60 human cancer cell lines panel. The replacement of the 3'-hydroxy-4'-methoxyphenyl B-ring of phenstatin with substituted indolizine unit results in the conservation of both antitubulin and cytotoxic effect. Indolizines 9 and 17 were the most effective in the present study and showed the highest antiproliferative effect on melanoma cell lines MDA-MB-435 (GI50 = 30 nM) and could serve as new lead compounds for the development of anti-cancer therapeutics.
