Abstract
A series of novel phenothiazine-containing imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine derivatives were designed and synthesized under metal-free conditions in excellent yield. These derivatives were effectively transformed further into N-alkyl, sulfoxide, and sulfone derivatives. Derivatives were deployed against human microtubule affinity regulating kinase (MARK4), some molecules play crucial roles in cell-cycle progression such as G1/S transition and regulator of microtubule dynamics. Hence, molecules have shown excellent MARK4 inhibitory potential. Molecules with excellent IC50 values were selected for further studies such as ligand interactions using fluorescence quenching experiments for the binding constant. The highest binding constant was calculated as K = 0.79 × 105 and K = 0.1 × 107 for compounds 6a and 6h, respectively. Molecular docking, cell cytotoxicity, mitochondrial reactive oxygen species measurement and oxidative DNA damage were also studied to understand the mechanism of action of the molecules on cancer cells. It was found that the designed and synthesized compounds played anti-cancer roles by binding and inhibiting MARK4 protein.

Abstract
In this study, we synthesized and characterized ten chromenopyrimidine derivatives using analytical and spectroscopic methods. Studies on DNA and albumin binding affinity, as well as cytotoxicity tests on human breast cancer (MCF-7) cells, of the chromenopyrimidines, were conducted. The natural logarithm of the relative stability constant of DNA- and BSA-chromenopyrimidine complexes [ln(KDNA/KBSA)] was used as a criterion for selecting compounds for cytotoxicity studies. We found that ln(KDNA/KBSA) was inversely related to IC50 values of the compounds in MCF-7 cells. The antiproliferative effects of the compounds were found to induce apoptosis in MCF-7 cells, which is a desired mechanism of cell death. Correlations between the DNA and albumin binding affinities of chromenopyrimidines were established. We propose that this relationship approach can, for a given set of compounds, assist in predicting the cytotoxicity of potential drug candidates towards MCF-7 cells based on their experimentally determined CT-DNA and BSA binding affinities.

Abstract
Discovery of novel anticancer agents is of crucial importance to expand the therapeutic options for cancer patients. In this study, a series of 49 5-oxo-hexahydroquinoline and 5-oxo-tetrahydrocyclopentapyridine analogs, containing different pyridine alkyl carboxylates at C3 and various aliphatic, aromatic, and heteroaromatic substitutions at the C4 position of the central core, were synthesized. The target compounds were tested for antiproliferative effect against three human cancer cell lines including MOLT-4 (acute lymphoblastic leukemia), K562 (chronic myelogenous leukemia), and MCF-7 (breast adenocarcinoma) by MTT assay, and the effect of the most potent derivatives on cell cycle was evaluated by RNase/propidium iodide (PI) flow cytometric assay. Generally, 5-oxo-hexahydroquinoline derivatives (E series) possessed superior antiproliferative activities compared to their 5-oxo-tetrahydrocyclopentapyridine counterparts (F series). 5-Oxo-hexahydroquinoline compounds bearing 2-pyridyl propyl carboxylate (group D) and 3-pyridyl propyl carboxylate (group E) were better antiproliferative agents than those bearing other pyridyl alkyl carboxylates. Five best compounds with IC50 values in the range of 9.5-22.9 µM against MOLT-4 cells were selected for cell-cycle analysis, which revealed that derivatives D5, E3, and E5 with 2,3-dichlorophenyl, 3-nitrophenyl, and 2-nitrophenyl substitutions at C4 position, respectively, may induce apoptosis in MOLT-4 cells. Molecular docking analysis, which was employed to make some predictions on the interaction of the most active derivatives with the binding site of Bcl-2 and Bcl-xL proteins, suggested that the compounds may be well accommodated within the binding sites of these anti-apoptotic proteins via hydrogen-bonding and hydrophobic interactions. The findings of this study present 5-oxo-hexahydroquinoline derivatives as antiproliferative agents with potential apoptosis-inducing ability in cancer cells.

Abstract
Integrin linked kinase (ILK) is a Ser/Thr kinase, which regulates various integrin mediated signaling pathways, and is involved in cell adhesion, migration and differentiation. Alteration in the ILK is responsible for abnormal functioning of the cell system, which may lead to the cancer progression and metastasis. Caffeic acid (CA) and simvastatin are used as antioxidant and possess anticancer properties. Thus, inhibiting the kinase activity of ILK by CA and simvastatin may be implicated in the cancer therapy. In this study, we have performed molecular docking followed by 100 ns MD simulations to understand the interaction mechanism of ILK protein with the CA and simvastatin. Average potential energy was found to be highest in case of ILK-CA complex (-770,949 kJ/mol). Binding free energy was found to be higher in case of simvastatin than CA. Our results indicate that simvastatin binds more effectively to the active pocket of ILK. We further performed MTT assay to understand its anticancer potential. Simvastatin shows the IC50 values for HepG2 and MCF-7 as 19.18 ± 0.12 and 13.84 ± 0.22 µM, respectively. However, the IC50 value of CA on HepG2 and MCF-7 was reported as 175.50 ± 1.44 and 144.90 ± 1.53 µM, respectively. Our study provides a deeper insight into the binding mechanism of simvastatin and CA to ILK, which further opens a promising channel for their implications in cancer therapy.

Abstract
Background Cancer is at present one of the leading causes of death in the world. It accounts for 13% of deaths occurred worldwide and is continuously rising, with an estimated million of deaths up to 2030. Due to poor availability of prevention, diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer, the rate of mortality is at alarming level globally. In women, hormone-dependent estrogen receptor positive (ER+) breast cancer making up approximately 75% of all breast cancers. Hence, it has drawn the extensive attention of researchers towards the development of effective drugs for the treatment of hormone-dependent breast cancer. Estrogen, a female sex hormone has a vital role in the initiation and progression of breast malignancy. Therefore, estrogen receptor is the central target for the treatment of breast cancer. Conclusion In this review, we have studied various classes of antiestrogens that have been designed and synthesized with selective binding for estrogen alpha receptor (ER). Since estrogen receptor α is mainly responsible for the breast cancer initiation and progression, therefore there is need of promising strategies for the design and synthesis of new therapeutic ligands which selectively bind to estrogen alpha receptor and inhibit estrogen dependent proliferative activity.

Abstract
Microtubule affinity-regulating kinase 4 (MARK4) has recently been identified as a potential drug target for several complex diseases including cancer, diabetes and neurodegenerative disorders. Inhibition of MARK4 activity is an appealing therapeutic option to treat such diseases. Here, we have performed structure-based virtual high-throughput screening of 100,000 naturally occurring compounds from ZINC database against MARK4 to find its potential inhibitors. The resulted hits were selected, based on the binding affinities, docking scores and selectivity. Further, binding energy calculation, Lipinski filtration and ADMET prediction were carried out to find safe and better hits against MARK4. Best 10 compounds bearing high specificity and binding efficiency were selected, and their binding pattern to MARK4 was analyzed in detail. Finally, 100 ns molecular dynamics simulation was performed to evaluate; the dynamics stability of MARK4-compound complex. In conclusion, these selected natural compounds from ZINC database might be potential leads against MARK4, and can further be exploited in drug design and development for associated diseases.

Abstract
Active-targeted cancer imaging and therapy of glioma has attracted much attention in theranostic nanomedicine. As a promising tumor-targeting ligand, holo-transferrin (holo-Tf) has been applied for enhancing delivery of nanotheranostics. However, holo-Tf-based nanoassemblies for active targeting mediated multimodal imaging and therapeutics have not been previously reported. Here, we develop a one-step method for the preparation of holo-Tf-indocyanine green (holo-Tf-ICG) nanoassemblies for fluorescence (FL) and photoacoustic (PA) dual-modal imaging and photothermal therapy (PTT) of glioma. The nanoassemblies are formed by hydrophobic interaction and hydrogen bonds between holo-Tf and ICG, which exhibit excellent active tumor-targeting and high biocompability. The brain tumor with highly expressed Tf receptor can be clearly observed with holo-Tf-ICG nanoassemblies base on FL and PA dual-modal imaging in subcutaneous and orthotopic glioma models. Under the near-infrared laser irradiation, the holo-Tf-ICG nanoassemblies accumulated in tumor regions can efficiently convert laser energy into hyperthermia for tumor ablation. The novel theranostic nanoplatform holds great promise for precision diagnosis and treatment of glioma.
