Abstract
After the clinical use of epalrestat that contains a rhodanine ring, in type II diabetes mellitus and diabetic complications, rhodanin-based compounds have become an important class of heterocyclic in the field of medicinal chemistry. Various modifications to the rhodanine ring have led to a broad spectrum of biological activity of these compounds. Synthesis of rhodanine derivatives, depended on advenced throughput scanning hits, frequently causes potent and selective modulators of targeted enzymes or receptors, which apply their pharmacological activities through different mechanisms of action. Rhodanine-based compounds will likely stay a privileged scaffold in drug discovery because of different probability of chemical modifications of the rhodanine ring. We have, therefore reviewed their biological activities and structure activity relationship.

Abstract
Novel mansonone F derivative MSN54 (9-bromo-2,3-diethylbenzo[de]chromene-7,8-dione) exhibited significant cytotoxicity against twelve human tumor cell lines in vitro, with particularly strong potency against HL-60/MX2 cell line resistant to Topo II poisons. MSN54 was found to have IC50 of 0.69 and 1.43 µM against HL-60 and HL-60/MX2 cells, respectively. The resistance index is 10 times lower than that of the positive control VP-16 (etoposide). Various biological assays confirmed that MSN54 acted as a Topo IIα specific non-intercalative catalytic inhibitor. Furthermore, MSN54 exhibited good antitumor efficacy and low toxicity at a dose of 5 mg/kg in A549 tumor xenograft models. Thus, compound MSN54 is a promising candidate for the development of novel antitumor agents.

Abstract
In the present work, a novel series of 2-amino-1,4-naphthoquinones bearing oxyphenyl moiety (5a-5m) were designed and synthesized via a two-step route and evaluated for their in vitro cytotoxic activity against three different cancer cell lines (MCF-7, HL-60 and U937) and normal human cell line (HEK-293) by MTT assay. Compounds 5b (4-nitro-benzyl-) and 5k (4-bromo-benzyl-) were identified to possess the highest cytotoxic activity against MCF-7 cancerous cells (IC50 values of 27.76 and 27.86 μM, respectively). At the same time, none of the compounds exert significant toxicity against HEK-293 normal human kidney cells. Cell cycle analysis showed that the selected derivatives increased the population of MCF-7 cells in the S phase at 25 and 50 μM concentrations. Annexin V-FITC/PI staining assay also confirmed that compounds 5b and 5k induced apoptosis in the cell death pathway. Molecular docking and molecular dynamics studies were also performed to evaluate the probable interactions between the hybrids and human ATP binding domain of topo IIα protein. Our findings may provide new insight for further development of novel naphthoquinone-containing compounds.

Abstract
A library of 1-benzyl-N-(2-(phenylamino)pyridin-3-yl)-1H-1,2,3-triazole-4-carboxamides (7a-al) have been designed, synthesized and screened for their anti-proliferative activity against some selected human cancer cell lines namely DU-145, A-549, MCF-7 and HeLa. Most of them have shown promising cytotoxicity against lung cancer cell line (A549), amongst them 7f was found to be the most potent anti-proliferative congener. Furthermore, 7f exhibited comparable tubulin polymerization inhibition (IC50 value 2.04 µM) to the standard E7010 (IC50 value 2.15 µM). Moreover, flow cytometric analysis revealed that this compound induced apoptosis via cell cycle arrest at G2/M phase in A549 cells. Induction of apoptosis was further observed by examining the mitochondrial membrane potential and was also confirmed by Hoechst staining as well as Annexin V-FITC assays. Furthermore, molecular docking studies indicated that compound 7f binds to the colchicine binding site of the β-tubulin. Thus, 7f exhibits anti-proliferative properties by inhibiting the tubulin polymerization through the binding at the colchicine active site and by induction of apoptosis.

Abstract
Novel topoisomerase II (Topo II) inhibitors have gained considerable interest for the development of anticancer agents. In this study, a series of carbazole derivatives containing chalcone analogs (CDCAs) were synthesized and investigated for their Topo II inhibition and cytotoxic activities. The results from Topo II mediated DNA relaxation assay showed that CDCAs could significantly inhibit the activity of Topo II, and the structure-activity relationship indicated the halogen substituent in phenyl ring play an important role in the activity. Further mechanism studies revealed that CDCAs function as non-intercalative Topo II catalytic inhibitors. Moreover, some CDCAs showed micromolar cytotoxic activities. The most potent compound 3h exhibited notable growth inhibition against four human cancer cell lines. Flow cytometric analysis revealed that compounds 3d and 3h arrested the HL-60 cells in sub G1 phase by induction of apoptosis. It was further confirmed by Annexin-V-FITC binding assay. Western blot analysis revealed that compound 3h induces apoptosis likely through the activation of caspase proteins.

Abstract
The structural dynamics and stability of inclusion complexes of mansonone E (ME) and H (MH) including their stereoisomers with various βCDs (methylated- and hydroxypropylated-βCDs) were investigated by classical molecular dynamics (MD) simulations and binding free energy calculations. The simulation results revealed that mansonones are able to form inclusion complexes with βCDs. The guest molecules are not completely inserted into the host cavity, their preferably positions are nearby the secondary rim with the oxane ring dipping into the hydrophobic inner cavity. The encapsulation process leads to a higher rigidity of the βCDs enhancing the intramolecular hydrogen bond formation ability and decreasing the chance of glucopyranose rotation. According to the MM-PBSA binding free energy calculation, all considered inclusion complexes are stable and the binding energies are mainly caused by van der Waals interactions. Moreover, the free energy calculations showed significant differences in the complexation energies for the stereoisomers, which could enable the separation of the isomers by analytical techniques for further pharmaceutical applications.

Abstract
Mansorins and mansonones have been isolated from Mansonia gagei heartwoods, a traditional herbal medicine used to treat heart failure, and characterized to have anti-oxidant, anti-bacterial, anti-tumor, and anti-estrogenic activities. However, there is as yet no information on their effects on adipogenesis and lipid storage associated with heart disease. In this study, we investigated the effects of naturally occurring compounds on adipogenic differentiation and sought to develop more potent anti-adipogenic compound. We found that mansonone G (MG) suppressed adipocyte differentiation of 3T3-L1 cells, with a 40% decrease in lipid accumulation at 10 μM. MG derivatives including ether and ester analogues were then synthesized and assayed for their ability to suppress adipogenesis. A novel MG derivative, chlorobenzoyl MG (CBMG) most potently suppressed adipocyte differentiation with the decreased level of aP2 and adiponectin. Interestingly, CBMG treatment decreased the expression of CCAAT enhancer binding protein-α (C/EBPα) and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ (PPARγ). Further analysis confirmed that CBMG suppressed both the expression and activity of PPARγ, a master regulator of adipogenesis, and subsequently led to decreases in transcription of C/EBPα, aP2, and adiponectin in adipogenesis, thereby attenuating adipocyte differentiation. Our results suggest that a novel MG derivative, CBMG may have beneficial applications in the control of obesity through the suppression of PPARγ-induced adipocyte differentiation and lipid accumulation.

Abstract
Cisplatin (cis-diaminedichloridoplatinum(II), cis-[PtCl2(NH3)2]) is an effective chemotherapeutic agent in the treatment of several types of malignant solid tumors but its clinical use is associated with ototoxicity. Several studies have investigated the effect of antioxidants on cisplatin-induced ototoxicity in mice. The triazole KPR-A020 has been shown to play a protective role against mitochondrial dysfunction by reducing the production of mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS). The effect of KPR-A020 on cisplatin-induced ototoxicity was examined using cultures of cochlear explants. Healthy mice were randomly divided into 4 groups: control, treated with cisplatin alone (CP), treated with cisplatin and KPR-A020 (CP + KPR-A020), and treated with KPR-A020 alone (KPR-A020). The cochlear explants were harvested for histological and immunohistochemical examinations. Biochemical analyses of the explants revealed that pre-treatment with KPR-A020 prevented an increase in mitochondrial ROS levels. Moreover, the CP + KPR-A020 group showed better hair cell survival than the CP group. Immunohistochemical examinations of cochlear explants stained with anti-caspase-3 revealed greater immunopositivity in the CP group. The CP + KPR-A020 group showed significantly less immunopositivity than the CP group (P < 0.05). Thus, it appears that KPR-A020 protects hair cells in the organ of Corti from cisplatin-induced toxicity by decreasing the production of mitochondrial ROS. The results of this study suggest that KPR-A020 can be used as an antioxidant and antiapoptotic agent to prevent hearing loss caused by cisplatin induced-oxidative stress.

We have synthesized a series of novel 11α-triazoyl bile acid derivatives. In addition, we also have synthesized N-alkyl and N-acyl derivatives of C-11 amino bile acid esters. All the compounds were evaluated for the inhibitory activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Ra (MTB) at 30 μg/mL level. Four lead compounds (2b, 3, 7 and 8) were further confirmed from their dose dependent effect against MTB. These compounds were found to be active against Dormant and active stage MTB under both in vitro as well as within THP1 host macrophages. The most promising compound 2b showed strong antitubercular activities against MTB under in vitro and ex vivo (IC90 value of ∼3 μg/mL) conditions and almost insignificant cytotoxicity up to 100 μg/mL against THP-1, A549 and PANC-1 human cancer cell lines. Inactivity of all these compounds against Gram positive and Gram negative bacteria indicates their specificity. Molecular docking studies of these compounds into the active site of DprE1 enzyme revealed a similar binding mode to native ligands in the crystal structure thereby helping to establish a structural basis of inhibition of MTB. The synthesized compounds were analyzed for ADME properties and showed potential to develop good oral drug candidates. Our results clearly indicate the identification of some novel, selective and specific inhibitors against MTB that can be explored further for potential antitubercular drug.

Abstract
Abietane diterpenes exhibit an array of interesting biological activities, which have generated significant interest among the pharmacological community. Starting from the abietane diterpenes carnosic acid and carnosol, twenty four new triazole derivatives were synthesized using click chemistry. The compounds differ in the length of the linker and the substituent on the triazole moiety. The compounds were assessed as antiproliferative and antifungal agents. The antiproliferative activity was determined on normal lung fibroblasts (MRC-5), gastric epithelial adenocarcinoma (AGS), lung cancer (SK-MES-1) and bladder carcinoma (J82) cells while the antifungal activity was assessed against Candida albicans ATCC 10231 and Cryptococcus neoformans ATCC 32264. The carnosic acid γ-lactone derivatives 1–3 were the most active antiproliferative compounds of the series, with IC50 values in the range of 43.4–46.9 μM and 39.2–48.9 μM for MRC-5 and AGS cells, respectively. Regarding antifungal activity, C. neoformans was the most sensitive fungus, with nine compounds inhibiting more than 50% of its fungal growth at concentrations ≤250 µg∙mL−1. Compound 22, possessing a p-Br-benzyl substituent on the triazole ring, showed the best activity (91% growth inhibition) at 250 µg∙mL−1 In turn, six compounds inhibited 50% C. albicans growth at concentrations lower than 250 µg∙mL−1.

Abstract
The copper(I)-catalyzed 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition between alkynes and azides (click chemistry) to form 1,2,3-triazoles is the most popular reaction due to its reliability, specificity, and biocompatibility. This reaction has the potential to shorten procedures, and render more efficient lead identification and optimization procedures in medicinal chemistry, which is a powerful modular synthetic approach toward the assembly of new molecular entities and has been applied in anticancer drugs discovery increasingly. The present review focuses mainly on the applications of this reaction in the field of synthesis of agents with anticancer activity, which are divided into four groups: topoisomerase II inhibitors, histone deacetylase inhibitors, protein tyrosine kinase inhibitors, and antimicrotubule agents.

Abstract
Synthetic analogs of the 5' end of mRNA (cap structure) are widely used in molecular studies on mechanisms of cellular processes such as translation, intracellular transport, splicing, and turnover. The best-characterized cap binding protein is translation initiation factor 4E (eIF4E). Recognition of the mRNA cap by eIF4E is a critical, rate-limiting step for efficient translation initiation and is considered a major target for anticancer therapy. Here, we report a facile methodology for the preparation of N2-triazole-containing monophosphate cap analogs and present their biological evaluation as inhibitors of protein synthesis. Five analogs possessing this unique hetero-cyclic ring spaced from the m7-guanine of the cap structure at a distance of one or three carbon atoms and/or additionally substituted by various groups containing the benzene ring were synthesized. All obtained compounds turned out to be effective translation inhibitors with IC50 similar to dinucleotide triphosphate m(7)GpppG. As these compounds possess a reduced number of phosphate groups and, thereby, a negative charge, which may support their cell penetration, this type of cap analog might be promising in terms of designing new potential therapeutic molecules. In addition, an exemplary dinucleotide from a corresponding mononucleotide containing benzyl substituted 1,2,3-triazole was prepared and examined. The superior inhibitory properties of this analog (10-fold vs. m(7)GpppG) suggest the usefulness of such compounds for the preparation of mRNA transcripts with high translational activity.

Structure and evaluation of antibacterial and antitubercular properties of new basic and heterocyclic 3-formylrifamycin SV derivatives obtained via 'click chemistry' approach. Eur J Med Chem 2014; 84:651-76. [PMID: 25063947 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejmech.2014.07.066] [Citation(s) in RCA: 30] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/25/2014] [Revised: 07/16/2014] [Accepted: 07/20/2014] [Indexed: 12/11/2022]
Abstract
Thirty four novel derivatives of 3-formylrifamycin SV were synthesized via reductive alkylation and copper(I)-catalysed azide-alkyne cycloaddition. According to the obtained results, 'click chemistry' can be successfully applied for modification of structurally complex antibiotics such as rifamycins, with the formation of desired 1,2,3-triazole products. However, when azide-alkyne cycloaddition on 3-formylrifamycin SV derivatives demanded higher amount of catalyst, lower temperature and longer reaction time because of the high volatility of substrates, an unexpected intramolecular condensation with the formation of 3,4-dihydrobenzo[g]quinazoline heterocyclic system took place. Structures of new derivatives in solution were determined using one- and two-dimensional NMR methods and FT-IR spectroscopy. Computational DFT and PM6 methods were employed to correlate their conformation and acid-base properties to biological activity and establish SAR of the novel compounds. Microbiological, physico-chemical (logP, solubility) and structural studies of newly synthesised rifamycins indicated that for the presence of relatively high antibacterial (MIC ~0.01 nmol/mL) and antitubercular (MIC ~0.006 nmol/mL) activities, a rigid and basic substituent at C(3) arm, containing a protonated nitrogen atom "open" toward intermolecular interactions, is required.

Abstract
Dehydroabietic acid (DHA) is a naturally occurring diterpene with different and relevant biological activities. Previous studies have shown that some DHA derivatives display antiproliferative activity. However, the reported compounds did not include triazole derivatives. Starting from DHA (8,11,13-abietatrien-18-oic acid), and its alcohol dehydroabietinol (8,11,13-abietatrien-18-ol), four alkyl esters were prepared. The alkyl terpenes were treated with different aromatic azides to synthesize hybrid compounds using click chemistry. Some 16 new DHA hybrids were thus synthesized and their structures were confirmed by spectroscopic and spectrometric means. The antiproliferative activity of the new compounds was assessed towards human cell lines, namely normal lung fibroblasts (MRC-5), gastric epithelial adenocarcinoma (AGS), lung cancer (SK-MES-1) and bladder carcinoma (J82) cells. Better antiproliferative effect was found for compound 5, with an IC50 of 6.1 μM and selectivity on SK-MES-1 cells. Under the same experimental conditions, the IC50 of etoposide, was 1.83 µM.
