Abstract
Current treatment for Glioblastoma Multiforme (GBM) is not efficient due to its aggressive nature, tendency to infiltrate surrounding brain tissue, and chemotherapy resistance. Tetrahydroquinoline scaffolds are emerging as a new class of drug for treating many human cancers including GBM. This study investigates the cytotoxicity effect of eight novel derivatives of 2-((3,4-dihydroquinolin-1(2H)-yl)(aryl)methyl)phenol, containing substitute 1 with reduced dihydroquinoline fused with cyclohexene ring and substitute 2 with phenyl and methyl group. The 4-position of the aryl ring was determinant for the desired cytotoxicity, and out of the 8 synthesized compounds, the 4-trifluoromethyl substituted derivative (4ag) exhibited the most anti-GBM potential effect compared to the standard chemotherapeutic agent, temozolomide (TMZ), with IC50 values of 38.3 μM and 40.6 μM in SNB19 and LN229 cell lines, respectively. Our results demonstrated that 4ag triggers apoptosis through the activation of Caspase-3/7. In addition, 4ag induced intracellular reactive oxygen species (iROS) which in turn elevated mitochondrial ROS (mtROS) and causes the disruption of the mitochondrial membrane potential (Δψmt) in both GBM cells. This compound also exhibited anti-migratory properties over the time in both the cell lines. Overall, these findings suggest that tetrahydroquinoline derivative, 4ag could lead to the development of a new drug for treating GBM.

Abstract
Betulonic acid benzyl ester 1 has been subjected to a series of structural modifications for the purpose of new triterpenoid synthesis and evaluating for anticancer activity. The one-pot two step synthesis of 2α-(aminomethyl)betulinic acid benzyl ester derivatives 3a-f (yield 46-69 %) was achieved by the Mannich reaction of compound 1 with methyleneiminium salts, generated in situ from N,N-disubstituted bis(amino)methanes 2a-f by the action of acetyl chloride in dichloromethane, and subsequent reduction of aminomethylation products with sodium borohydride. Minor 2β-(aminomethyl) triterpenoids 4c,d,f were also isolated (yield 6-15 %). We found, that the stereoselective reaction of triterpenoid 1 with acetylides, generated at -78 °C from alkynes in the presence of n-BuLi, has been useful and noteworthy as the key step in providing of new alkyne substituted triterpenoids - benzyl 3-alkynyl-3-deoxy-2(3),20(29)-lupadiene-28-oates or 3-deoxy-2(3)-dehydro-28-oxoallobetulin derivative. The new compounds were examined for anticancer activity against the human cell lines (MTT assay). All tested derivatives were non-toxic on human fibroblasts. The 3-(phenylethynyl)lupa-2(3),20(29)-diene 9 showed selective cytotoxicity on cervical cancer cell lines. Tumor cells death trigged by the most active compound 4f resulted from apoptotic processes. These data make the series of synthesized 2 or 3 substituted lupane derivatives as promising compounds with anticancer potential.

Abstract
A new Mannich base (2-(4-(2-hydroxy-3-methoxy-5-methylbenzyl)-piperazin-1-yl)methyl)-6-methoxy-4-ethylphenol (H2L) and its tetranuclear NiII complex [Ni4L2(μ1,1-Cl)2(H2O)4]Cl2 (compound 1) are characterised using single-crystal X-ray diffraction measurements. Compound 1 contains four different NiII centres in a rhombus-like structure. Two Ni atoms (Ni1 and Ni2) have a NiN2O4 coordination sphere, while the other two (Ni3 and Ni4) have a NiO4Cl2 coordination environment and Ni-Cl-Ni bridges connect them. Ni1 and Ni2 are linked to Ni3 and Ni4 by phenoxide bridges. Variable temperature magnetic susceptibility measurements of 1 indicate the presence of alternating antiferromagnetic coupling (J1 = -6.6(1) cm-1) through the phenoxide bridge along the sides of the rhombus and ferromagnetic coupling (J2 = 8.4(1) cm-1) through the double Cl bridge along the short diagonal of the rhombus with a zero-field splitting of |D| = 2.7(1) cm-1. Compound 1 shows oxidase (catecholase-like and phenoxazinone synthase-like) activity. The oxidation of 3,5-di-tert-butylcatechol (3,5-DTBC) gives 3,5-di-tert-butylquinone (3,5-DTBQ) and H2O2 and the oxidation of o-aminophenol (OAP) produces 2-aminophenoxazin-3-one (APX) and H2O with turnover numbers of 28.32 and 17.52 h-1, respectively, under aerobic conditions. A mechanism for the oxidase activity catalysed by compound 1 is proposed in line with ESI-mass spectrometry, EPR spectroscopy, and electrochemical data. The reaction involves the cleavage of the tetranuclear Ni4-core to form a mononuclear NiII complex in the presence of the substrate (3,5-DTBC/OAP). This NiII complex is reduced to NiI with the concomitant oxidation of the substrate (3,5-DTBQ/APX). Formation of a radical intermediate is confirmed using EPR. In the catecholase-like activity, O2 is reduced to H2O2 while in the phenoxazinone synthase-like activity O2 produces H2O. Compound 1 participated in oxygen evolution reaction (OER) and hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) in a strongly basic medium with an onset potential of 418 mV and a Tafel slope of 121 mV dec-1 for OER and an onset potential of 477 mV and Tafel slope of 146 mV dec-1 for HER.

Abstract
Targeted cancer treatment should avoid side effects and damage to healthy cells commonly encountered during traditional chemotherapy. By combining small molecule or peptidic ligands as homing devices with cytotoxic drugs connected by a cleavable or non-cleavable linker in peptide-drug conjugates (PDCs) or small molecule-drug conjugates (SMDCs), cancer cells and tumours can be selectively targeted. The development of highly affine, selective peptides and small molecules in recent years has allowed PDCs and SMDCs to increasingly compete with antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs). Integrins represent an excellent target for conjugates because they are overexpressed by most cancer cells and because of the broad knowledge about native binding partners as well as the multitude of small-molecule and peptidic ligands that have been developed over the last 30 years. In particular, integrin αVβ3 has been addressed using a variety of different PDCs and SMDCs over the last two decades, following various strategies. This review summarises and describes integrin-addressing PDCs and SMDCs while highlighting points of great interest.

Abstract
This study presents an innovative method for synthesizing β-amino carbonylated compounds, specifically 2-[phenyl(phenylamino)methyl] cyclohexanone, achieving high conversions and diastereomeric ratios. Using trypsin or α-chymotrypsin in both free and immobilized forms on titanate nanotubes (NtsTi), synthesized through alkaline hydrothermal methods, successful immobilization yields were attained. Notably, α-chymotrypsin, when free, displayed a diastereoselective synthesis of the anti-isomer with 97 % conversion and 16 : 84 (syn : anti) diastereomeric ratio, which slightly decreased upon immobilization on NtsTi. Trypsin, in its free form, exhibited diastereoselective recognition of the syn-isomer, while immobilization on NtsTi (trypsin/NtsTi) led to an inversion of diastereomeric ratio. Both trypsin/NtsTi and α-chymotrypsin/NtsTi demonstrated significant catalytic efficiency over five cycles. In conclusion, NtsTi serves as an effective support for trypsin and α-chymotrypsin immobilization, presenting promising prospects for diastereoselective synthesis and potential industrial applications. Furthermore, it offers promising prospects for the diastereoselective synthesis of 2-[phenyl(phenylamino)methyl] cyclohexanone through multicomponent Mannich reaction and future industrial application.

Abstract
Previous studies have shown that some lamellarin-resembling annelated azaheterocyclic carbaldehydes and related imino adducts, sharing the 1-phenyl-5,6-dihydropyrrolo[2,1-a]isoquinoline (1-Ph-DHPIQ) scaffold, are cytotoxic in some tumor cells and may reverse multidrug resistance (MDR) mediated by P-glycoprotein (P-gp). Herein, several novel substituted 1-Ph-DHPIQ derivatives were synthesized which carry carboxylate groups (COOH, COOEt), nitrile (CN) and Mannich bases (namely, morpholinomethyl derivatives) in the C2 position, as replacements of the already reported aldehyde group. They were evaluated for antiproliferative activity in four tumor cell lines (RD, HCT116, HeLa, A549) and for the ability of selectively inhibiting P-gp-mediated MDR. Lipophilicity descriptors and molecular docking calculations helped us in rationalizing the structure-activity relationships in the P-gp inhibition potency of the investigated 1-Ph-DHPIQs. As a main outcome, a morpholinomethyl Mannich base (8c) was disclosed which proved to be cytotoxic to all the tested tumor cell lines in the low micromolar range (IC50 < 20 μM) and to inhibit in vitro the efflux pumps P-gp and MRP1 responsible for MDR, with IC50s of 0.45 and 12.1 μM, respectively.

Abstract
The present work aims to synthesize four series of phenothiazine incorporation Mannich bases. Therefore, 10-methyl-10H-phenothiazine-3-sulfonamide (4) which was subjected to react with some secondary amines and formaldehyde to give the Mannich bases 5a-f, and 6-13. Compound 13 was then subjected to react with some secondary amines and formaldehyde to give the corresponding Mannich bases 14a-f. In total, twenty-two new compounds were synthesized and evaluated for in vitro growth inhibition activity against P. aeruginosa, E. coli, and S. aureus. Among the tested compounds, compounds 3, 5a, 5c, 6, 12, 13, 14d, and 14e exhibited good activity with a MIC value (12.5 μg/mL), compounds 5b, 10, 11, 14a, and 14c exhibited strong activity against the growth of S. aureus with a MIC value (6.25 μg/mL), and compound 14b superior against S. aureus with a MIC value (3.125 μg/mL) compared to drug reference ciprofloxacin with MIC value (2 μg/mL). The molecular docking investigation revealed the presence of many derivatives with high binding affinities and distinct interaction patterns with the target protein. Derivatives 14a-e emerged as the most promising possibilities, displaying the greatest binding energies and a varied variety of interaction types, including hydrogen bonding and pi interactions, over different distances, with derivative 14b exhibiting the highest binding energy at S = -8.3093 kcal/mol. These derivatives displayed superior binding affinities and various interaction mechanisms with the target protein, suggesting that they have great promise as lead compounds for future development into therapeutic medicines.

Abstract
In the present study, we use knipholone as a prototype molecule to identify new anti-infective agents. Since knipholone is insoluble in water, which would have a detrimental effect on its bioavailability and efficacy, we synthesized knipholone Mannich base derivatives (2-4) that have better predicted solubility and investigated their in vitro antimicrobial activity against eight pathogenic bacterial and fungal strains. The chemical structures of compounds 1-4 were elucidated from their 1H and 13C NMR data, and their antimicrobial activity evaluation was carried out by a broth microdilution MTT assay. Compound 3 exhibited the strongest efficacy against Staphylococcus epidermidis, with MIC value of 9.7 µg/mL. While 4 exhibited the best activity against Staphylococcus aureus, with an MIC value of 19.5 µg/mL, and was the only one to significantly inhibit the fungus Trichophyton mentagrophytes (MIC = 78.2 µg/mL). The study provides evidence for the antibacterial activity of aminoalkyl derivatives of knipholone.

Abstract
A library of 18 structurally diverse semisynthetic lupane, oleanane, and ursane types triterpenoids, including C19- or C28-(1,2,3-triazolyl)- and aminomethylated derivatives obtained by the «click» reaction with various aromatic and sugar azides or by Mannich reaction with secondary amines, were tested for antiviral activity against HCMV, HSV-1, and HPV-11 types. C28-Triazolyl-derivative with a benzyl substituent of 2,3-indolo-oleanolic acid was the most active against the HCMV virus with EC50 < 0.05 (SI > 81). Lupane 3,28-diacetoxy-triazolyl derivatives with phenyl- and fluorophenyl-fragments possess the highest activity among all screened compounds toward HPV-11 type virus with EC50 values of 2.97 µM and 1.20 μM, SI90 values of 28 and >125, respectively. One can see that modification of triterpenic alkynes to Mannich bases was more efficient in increasing an activity against HSV-1 than their conversion to triazoles.

Abstract
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive brain disease characterised by progressive memory loss and cognition impairment, ultimately leading to death. There are three FDA-approved acetylcholinesterase inhibitors (donepezil, rivastigmine, and galantamine, AChEIs) for the symptomatic treatment of AD. Monoamine oxidase B (MAO-B) has been considered to contribute to pathologies of AD. Therefore, we reviewed the dual inhibitors of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and MAO-B developed in the last five years. In this review, these dual-target inhibitors were classified into six groups according to the basic parent structure, including chalcone, coumarin, chromone, benzo-fused five-membered ring, imine and hydrazine, and other scaffolds. Their design strategies, structure-activity relationships (SARs), and molecular docking studies with AChE and MAO-B were analysed and discussed, giving valuable insights for the subsequent development of AChE and MAO-B dual inhibitors. Challenges in the development of balanced and potent AChE and MAO-B dual inhibitors were noted, and corresponding solutions were provided.

Abstract
The DNA topoisomerase II (topo II) enzyme plays an important role in the replication, recombination, and repair of DNA. Despite their widespread applications in cancer therapy, new, selective, and potent topo II inhibitors with better pharmaceutical profiles are needed to handle drug resistance and severe adverse effects. In this respect, an array of 36 new anticancer compounds was designed based on a Xanthone core tethered to multifunctional Pyridine-amines and Imidazole scaffold via alkyl chain linkers. An integrated in silico approach was used to understand the structural basis and mechanism of inhibition of the hybrid xanthone derivatives. In this study, we established an initial virtual screening workflow based on pharmacophore mapping, docking, and cancer target association to validate the target selection process. Next, a simulation-based docking was conducted along with pharmacokinetic analysis to filter out the five best compounds (7, 10, 25, 27, and 30) having binding energies within the range of -60.45 to -40.97 kcal/mol. The screened compounds were further subjected to molecular dynamics simulation for 200 ns followed by MM-GBSA and ligand properties analysis to assess the stability and binding affinity to hTOP2α. The top-ranking hits 3,7-bis(3-(2-aminopyridin-3-ylhydroxy)propoxy)-1-hydroxy-9H-xanthen-9-one (ligand 7) and 3,8-bis(3-(2-aminopyridin-3-ylhydroxy)propoxy)-1-hydroxy-9H-xanthen-9-one (ligand 25) were found to have no toxicity, optimum pharmacokinetic and, DFT properties and stable intermolecular interactions with the active site of hTopo IIα protein. In conclusion, further in vitro and in vivo experimental validation of the identified lead molecules is warranted for the discovery of new human Topoisomerase 2 alpha inhibitors.Communicated by Ramaswamy H.

Abstract
Mannich bases (8 examples) were synthesized via aminomethylation of fusidane propargyl esters. In vitro antimicrobial screening against key ESKAPE pathogens showed that the fusidic acid based Mannich products exhibit a high antimicrobial effect against Gram-positive bacteria Staphylococcus aureus and the fungus Cryptococcus neoformans. Moreover, the cytotoxic effect of fusidic acid and its analogs, which showed high antibacterial activity, was determined by MTT assay on cancer HepG2, HCT-116, SH-SY5Y, MCF-7, A549 and conditionally normal cells HEK293. A remarkable cytotoxic activity of fusidic acid propargyl ester and its aminomethylene derivatives against cancer and nontumoral HEK293 cells with IC50 values within 4.2-25 µM was found.

Abstract
Siglecs are well known immunotherapeutic targets in cancer. Current checkpoint inhibitors have exhibited limited efficacy, prompting a need for novel therapeutics for targets such as Siglec-15. Presently, small molecule inhibitors targeting Siglec-15 are not explored alongside characterised regulatory mechanisms involving microRNAs in CRC progression. Therefore, a small molecule inhibitor to target Siglec-15 was elucidated in vitro and microRNA mediated inhibitor effects were investigated. Our research findings demonstrated that the SHG-8 molecule exerted significant cytotoxicity on cell viability, migration, and colony formation, with an IC50 value of approximately 20µM. SHG-8 exposure induced late apoptosis in vitro in SW480 CRC cells. Notably, miR-6715b-3p was the most upregulated miRNA in high-throughput sequencing, which was also validated via RT-qPCR. MiR-6715b-3p may regulate PTTG1IP, a potential oncogene which was validated via RT-qPCR and in silico analysis. Additionally, molecular docking studies revealed SHG-8 interactions with the Siglec-15 binding pocket with the binding affinity of -5.4 kcal/mol, highlighting its role as a small molecule inhibitor. Importantly, Siglec-15 and PD-L1 are expressed on mutually exclusive cancer cell populations, suggesting the potential for combination therapies with PD-L1 antagonists.

Abstract
Isoflavenes have received the greatest research attention among the many groups of phytoestrogens. In this study, various isoflavene-based Mannich bases were selected for their theoretical studies. The purpose of this research was to discover the binding potential of all the designated Mannich bases acting as inhibitors against cancerous proteins EGFR, cMet, hTrkA, and HER2 (PDB codes: 5GTY, 3RHK, 6PL2, and 7JXH, respectively). For their virtual screening, DFT calculations and molecular docking studies were undertaken using in silico software. Docking studies predicted that ligands 5 and 15 exhibited the highest docking score by forming hydrogen bonds within the active pocket of protein 6PL2, ligands 1 and 15 both with protein 3RHK, and 7JXH, 12, and 17 with protein 5GTY. Rendering to the trends in polarizability and dipole moment, the energy gap values (0.2175 eV, 0.2106 eV) for the firm conformers of Mannich bases (1 and 4) replicate the increase in bioactivity and chemical reactivity. The energy gap values (0.2214 eV and 0.2172 eV) of benzoxazine-substituted isoflavene-based Mannich bases (9 and 10) reflect the increase in chemical potential due to the most stable conformational arrangements. The energy gap values (0.2188 eV and 0.2181 eV) of isoflavenes with tertiary amine-based Mannich bases (14 and 17) reflect the increase in chemical reactivity and bioactivity due to the most stable conformational arrangements. ADME was also employed to explore the pharmacokinetic properties of targeted moieties. This study revealed that these ligands have a strong potential to be used as drugs for cancer treatment.

Abstract
In the polyol pathway, aldose reductase (AR) catalyzes the formation of sorbitol from glucose. In order to detoxify some dangerous aldehydes, AR is essential. However, due to the effects of the active polyol pathway, AR overexpression in the hyperglycemic state leads to microvascular and macrovascular diabetic problems. As a result, AR inhibition has been recognized as a potential treatment for issues linked to diabetes and has been studied by numerous researchers worldwide. In the present study, a series of acyl hydrazones were obtained from the reaction of vanillin derivatized with acyl groups and phenolic Mannich bases with hydrazides containing pharmacological groups such as morpholine, piperazine, and tetrahydroisoquinoline. The resulting 21 novel acyl hydrazone compounds were investigated as an inhibitor of the AR enzyme. All the novel acyl hydrazones derived from vanillin demonstrated activity in nanomolar levels as AR inhibitors with IC50 and KI values in the range of 94.21 ± 2.33 to 430.00 ± 2.33 nM and 49.22 ± 3.64 to 897.20 ± 43.63 nM, respectively. Compounds 11c and 10b against AR enzyme activity were identified as highly potent inhibitors and showed 17.38 and 10.78-fold more effectiveness than standard drug epalrestat. The synthesized molecules' absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME) effects were also assessed. The probable-binding mechanisms of these inhibitors against AR were investigated using molecular-docking simulations.

Abstract
A series of novel Mannich bases were designed, synthesized, and screened for their antimicrobial activity. The target compounds were synthesized from 4-(3-chlorophenyl)-5-(3-fluorophenyl)-2,4-dihydro-3H-1,2,4-triazole-3-thione and different piperazine derivatives. The structures of the products were confirmed by 1H and 13C NMR and elemental analysis. The activity of piperazine derivatives against bacteria (Gram-positive: Staphylococcus epidermidis, Staphylococcus aureus, Micrococcus luteus, Bacillus cereus, and Bacillus subtilis; Gram-negative: Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Klebsiella pneumoniae, and Proteus mirabilis) and yeasts (Candida glabrata, Candida krusei, and Candida parapsilosis) was determined by the minimum inhibitory concentration and minimum bactericidal concentration values. Significant activity was observed against Gram-positive bacteria, mainly staphylococci (PG7-PG8) and bacteria of the genes of Micrococcus and Bacillus (PG1-3), as well as selected strains of Gram-negative bacteria, including bacteria of the Enterobacteriaceae family (PG7), while all tested compounds showed high fungistatic activity against Candida spp. yeasts, especially C. parapsilosis, with MICs ranging from 0.49 µg/mL (PG7) to 0.98 µg/mL (PG8) and 62.5 µg/mL (PG1-3). In conclusion, the results obtained confirm the multidirectional antimicrobial activity of the newly synthesized piperazine derivatives. Furthermore, in silico studies suggest that the tested compounds are likely to have good oral bioavailability. The results obtained will provide valuable data for further research into this interesting group of compounds. The library of compounds obtained is still the subject of pharmacological research aimed at finding new interesting biologically active compounds.

Abstract
A novel series of benzamide derivatives were successively designed and synthesized prepared from the pyridazinone scaffold. Among them, (S)-17b, demonstrated potent inhibitory activity in vitro toward human class I HDAC isoforms and human myelodysplastic syndrome (SKM-1) cell line. Also, (S)-17b strongly increased the intracellular level of acetyl-histone H3 and P21 simultaneously and effectively induced G1 cell cycle arrest and apoptosis. Through oral dosing in SKM-1 xenograft models, (S)-17b exhibited excellent in vivo antitumor activity. In addition, compound (S)-17b showed better antitumor efficacy on mouse models with intact immune system than those with thymus deficiencies. Furthermore, this compound displayed a favorable pharmacokinetic profile in ICR mice and SD rat, respectively, minimal metabolic property differences among hepatocytes from five species, and a low inhibition upon the human ether-a-go-go (hERG) channel with an IC50 value of 34.6 μΜ. This novel compound (S)-17b may serve as a new drug candidate for further investigation.

Interactions of N-Mannich Bases of Pyrrolo[3,4- c]pyrrole with Artificial Models of Cell Membranes and Plasma Proteins, Evaluation of Anti-Inflammatory and Antioxidant Activity. MEMBRANES 2023; 13:349. [PMID: 36984737 PMCID: PMC10057445 DOI: 10.3390/membranes13030349] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/28/2023] [Revised: 03/10/2023] [Accepted: 03/14/2023] [Indexed: 06/18/2023]
Abstract
Despite the widespread and easy access to NSAIDs, effective and safe treatment of various inflammatory disorders is still a serious challenge because of the severe adverse effects distinctive to these drugs. The Mannich base derivatives of pyrrolo[3,4-c]pyrrole are potent, preferential COX-2 inhibitors with a COX-2/COX-1 inhibitory ratio better than meloxicam. Therefore, we chose the six most promising molecules and subjected them to further in-depth research. The current study presents the extensive biological, spectroscopic and in silico evaluation of the activity and physicochemical properties of pyrrolo[3,4-c]pyrrole derivatives. Aware of the advantages of dual COX-LOX inhibition, we investigated the 15-LOX inhibitory activity of these molecules. We also examined their antioxidant effect in several in vitro experiments in a protection and regeneration model. Furthermore, we defined how studied compounds interact with artificial models of cell membranes, which is extremely important for drugs administered orally with an intracellular target. The interactions and binding mode of the derivatives with the most abundant plasma proteins-human serum albumin and alpha-1-acid glycoprotein-are also described. Finally, we used computational techniques to evaluate their pharmacokinetic properties. According to the obtained results, we can state that pyrrolo[3,4-c]pyrrole derivatives are promising anti-inflammatory and antioxidant agents with potentially good membrane permeability.

Abstract
Quercetin belongs to the flavonoid family, which is one of the most frequent types of plant phenolics. This flavonoid compound is a natural substance having a number of pharmacological effects, including anticancer and antioxidant capabilities, as well as being a strong inhibitor of various toxicologically important enzymes. We discuss the potential of newly recently synthesized quercetin-based derivatives to inhibit SARS-CoV-2 protein. ADMET analysis indicated that all of the studied compounds had low toxicities and good absorption and solubility properties. The molecular docking results revealed that the propensity for binding to SARS-CoV-2 main protease is extraordinary. The results are remarkable not only for the binding energy values, which outperform several compounds in prior studies, but also for the number of hydrogen bonds formed. Compound 7a was capable of forming 10 strong hydrogen bonds as well as interact to the protein receptor with a binding energy of -7.79 kcal/mol. Therefore, these compounds should be highlighted in further experimental studies in the context of treating SARS-CoV-2 infection and its effects.

Chemoselective Synthesis of Mannich Adducts from 1,4-Naphthoquinones and Profile as Autophagic Inducers in Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma. Molecules 2022; 28:molecules28010309. [PMID: 36615502 PMCID: PMC9822194 DOI: 10.3390/molecules28010309] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/14/2022] [Revised: 12/23/2022] [Accepted: 12/24/2022] [Indexed: 01/03/2023] Open
Abstract
Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is a worldwide public health problem, accounting for approximately 90% of all oral cancers, and is the eighth most common cancer in men. Cisplatin and carboplatin are the main chemotherapy drugs used in the clinic. However, in addition to their serious side effects, such as damage to the nervous system and kidneys, there is also drug resistance. Thus, the development of new drugs becomes of great importance. Naphthoquinones have been described with antitumor activity. Some of them are found in nature, but semi synthesis has been used as strategy to find new chemical entities for the treatment of cancer. In the present study, we promote a multiple component reaction (MCR) among lawsone, arylaldehydes, and benzylamine to produce sixteen chemoselectively derivated Mannich adducts of 1,4-naphthoquinones in good yield (up to 97%). The antitumor activities and molecular mechanisms of action of these compounds were investigated in OSCC models and the compound 6a induced cytotoxicity in three different tumor cell lines (OSCC4, OSCC9, and OSCC25) and was more selective (IS > 2) for tumor cells than the chemotropic drug carboplatin and the controls lapachol and shikonin, which are chemically similar compounds with cytotoxic effects. The 6a selectively and significantly reduced the amount of cell colony growth, was not hemolytic, and tolerable in mice with no serious side effects at a concentration of 100 mg/kg with a LD50 of 150 mg/kg. The new compound is biologically stable with a profile similar to carboplatin. Morphologically, 6a does not induce cell retraction or membrane blebs, but it does induce intense vesicle formation and late emergence of membrane bubbles. Exploring the mechanism of cell death induction, compound 6a does not induce ROS formation, and cell viability was not affected by inhibitors of apoptosis (ZVAD) and necroptosis (necrostatin 1). Autophagy followed by a late apoptosis process appears to be the death-inducing pathway of 6a, as observed by increased viability by the autophagy inhibitor (3-MA) and by the appearance of autophagosomes, later triggering a process of late apoptosis with the presence of caspase 3/7 and DNA fragmentation. Molecular modeling suggests the ability of the compound to bind to topoisomerase I and II and with greater affinity to hPKM2 enzyme than controls, which could explain the mechanism of cell death by autophagy. Finally, the in-silico prediction of drug-relevant properties showed that compound 6a has a good pharmacokinetic profile when compared to carboplatin and doxorubicin. Among the sixteen naphthoquinones tested, compound 6a was the most effective and is highly selective and well tolerated in animals. The induction of cell death in OSCC through autophagy followed by late apoptosis possibly via inhibition of the PKM2 enzyme points to a promising potential of 6a as a new preclinical anticancer candidate.

Abstract
Cancer is one of the greatest challenges in modern medicine today. Difficult and long-term treatment, the many side effects of the drugs used and the growing resistance to treatment of neoplastic cells necessitate new approaches to therapy. A very promising targeted therapy is based on direct impact only on cancer cells. As a continuation of our research on new biologically active molecules, we report herein the design, synthesis and anticancer evaluation of a new series of N-Mannich-base-type hybrid compounds containing morfoline or different substituted piperazines moieties, a 1,3,4-oxadiazole ring and a 4,6-dimethylpyridine core. All compounds were tested for their potential cytotoxicity against five human cancer cell lines, A375, C32, SNB-19, MCF-7/WT and MCF-7/DX. Two of the active N-Mannich bases (compounds 5 and 6) were further evaluated for growth inhibition effects in melanoma (A375 and C32), and normal (HaCaT) cell lines using clonogenic assay and a population doubling time test. The apoptosis was determined with the neutral version of comet assay. The confocal microscopy method enabled the visualization of F-actin reorganization. The obtained results demonstrated that compounds 5 and 6 have cytotoxic and proapoptotic effects on melanoma cells and are capable of inducing F-actin depolarization in a dose-dependent manner. Moreover, computational chemistry approaches, molecular docking and electrostatic potential were employed to study non-covalent interactions of the investigated compounds with four receptors. It was found that all the examined molecules exhibit a similar binding affinity with respect to the chosen reference drugs.

Abstract
β-Amino carbonyl substructures are privileged motifs in natural products and active pharmaceutical compounds. Here, we report a photoinduced metal-free and highly regioselective intermolecular carboimination method via the simultaneous introduction of amino and carbonyl groups into the CC double bond in one step, providing straightforward, green and general access to both β-amino acid and β-amino ketone motifs from readily available alkene feedstocks. The mild reaction conditions, excellent functional group tolerance and product diversity should make this a broadly applicable carboimination approach of very broad interest to organic and medicinal chemists.

Abstract
![]()
A recently proposed
strategy to overcome multidrug resistance (MDR)
in cancer is to target the collateral sensitivity of otherwise resistant
cells. We designed a library of 120 compounds to explore the chemical
space around previously identified 8-hydroxyquinoline-derived Mannich
bases with robust MDR-selective toxicity. We included compounds to
study the effect of halogen and alkoxymethyl substitutions in R5 in
combination with different Mannich bases in R7, a shift of the Mannich
base from R7 to R5, as well as the introduction of an aromatic moiety.
Cytotoxicity tests performed on a panel of parental and MDR cells
highlight a strong influence of experimentally determined pKa values of the donor atom moieties, indicating
that protonation and metal chelation are important factors modulating
the MDR-selective anticancer activity of the studied compounds. Our
results identify structural requirements increasing MDR-selective
anticancer activity, providing guidelines for the development of more
effective anticancer chelators targeting MDR cancer.

Abstract
The unique estrogen receptor (ER)-independent antiproliferative and apoptotic activity of 2-methoxyestradiol (2ME2) is well known, however, its use has been limited because of its poor oral bioavailability. In this study, novel 2-aminomethylated estrone (E) and estradiol (E2) derivatives structurally related to 2ME2 were synthesized, and their physicochemical properties as well as their in vitro cytotoxic effects were investigated in the hope of finding more selective antiproliferative agents with improved pharmacokinetic profile. The target compounds were synthesized from 2-dimethylaminomethylated E obtained regioselectively by a three-component Mannich reaction. Quaternization with methyl iodide followed by reacting the ammonium salt with various dialkyl and alicyclic secondary amines afforded the desired products in good yields. The reactions proceeded via a 1,4-nucleophilic addition of the applied secondary amines to the ortho-quinone methide (o-QM) intermediates, generated in situ from the salt by base-promoted β-elimination. The compound library has been enlarged with structurally similar E2 analogues obtained by stereoselective reduction and with some 17β-benzylamino derivatives prepared by reductive amination. The potential values of the novel E and E2 derivatives were characterised by means of three different approaches. At the first step compounds were virtually screened using physicochemical parameters. Physicochemical characterization was completed by kinetic solubility and in vitro intestinal-specific permeability measurement. Antiproliferative effects were additionally determined on a panel of malignant and non-cancerous cell lines. The evaluation of the pharmacological profile of the novel E and E2 derivatives was completed with the calculation of lipophilic efficacy (LiPE).

Abstract
Hafnium(IV) triflate (Hf(OTf)4) has been identified as a potent catalyst for the direct three-component synthesis of β-carbamate ketones. This new method, featuring a low catalyst loading, fast reaction rate, and solvent-free conditions, provided facile access to a diversity of carbamate-protected Mannich bases. A mechanistic investigation indicated that the three-component reaction proceeds via sequential aldol condensation and aza-Michael addition, but not the Mannich-type pathway.

Abstract
Hesperetin is a class of natural products with a wide range of sources and remarkable biological activities. In this study, we described the synthesis of a series of novel hesperetin derivatives and evaluated the in vitro antioxidant and antitumor activity of these compounds. Eleven novel compounds were synthesized in moderate yields. The compounds synthesized in this work exhibited antioxidant activities against DPPH and ABTS free radicals in a dose-dependent manner. Among them, compound 3f had the best antioxidant activity, with IC50 of 1.2 μM and 24 μM for DPPH and ABTS, respectively. The antitumor activity of the compounds against human cancer cell lines, such as breast MCF-7, liver HepG2, and cervical Hela, was determined by a standard 3-(4,5-dimethyl-2-thiazolyl)-2,5-diphenyl-2-H-tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay. Three compounds had moderate IC50 values. Interestingly, compound 3f had better biological activity than hesperetin, which matches the prediction by Maestro from Schrödinger. Therefore, the new hesperidin derivative is a promising drug for the treatment of cancer due to its effective antitumor activity. The results also suggested that the antitumor activities of hesperetin derivatives may be related to their antioxidant activities.

Abstract
Mannich bases identified by Professor Carl Mannich have been the most extensively explored scaffolds for more than 100 years now. The versatile biological roles that they play have promoted their applications in many clinical conditions. The present review highlights the application of Mannich bases as cytotoxic agents, categorizing them into synthetic, semisynthetic and prodrugs classes and gives an exhaustive account of the work reported in the last two decades. The methods of synthesis of these cytotoxic agents, their anti-cancer potential in various cell lines and promising leads for future drug development have also been discussed. Structure-activity relationships along with the targets on which these cytotoxic Mannich bases act have been included as well.

Abstract
![]()
Over the past two
decades, activity-based probes have enabled a
range of discoveries, including the characterization of new enzymes
and drug targets. However, their suitability in some labeling experiments
can be limited by nonspecific reactivity, poor membrane permeability,
or high toxicity. One method for overcoming these issues is through
the development of “inducible” activity-based probes.
These probes are added to samples in an unreactive state and require in situ transformation to their active form before labeling
can occur. In this Review, we discuss a variety of approaches to inducible
activity-based probe design, different means of probe activation,
and the advancements that have resulted from these applications. Additionally,
we highlight recent developments which may provide opportunities for
future inducible activity-based probe innovations.

Abstract
Endogenous long-chain metabolites of vitamin E (LCMs) mediate immune functions by targeting 5-lipoxygenase (5-LOX) and increasing the systemic concentrations of resolvin E3, a specialized proresolving lipid mediator. SAR studies on semisynthesized analogues highlight α-amplexichromanol (27a), which allosterically inhibits 5-LOX, being considerably more potent than endogenous LCMs in human primary immune cells and blood. Other enzymes within lipid mediator biosynthesis were not substantially inhibited, except for microsomal prostaglandin E2 synthase-1. Compound 27a is metabolized by sulfation and β-oxidation in human liver-on-chips and exhibits superior metabolic stability in mice over LCMs. Pharmacokinetic studies show distribution of 27a from plasma to the inflamed peritoneal cavity and lung. In parallel, 5-LOX-derived leukotriene levels decrease, and the inflammatory reaction is suppressed in reconstructed human epidermis, murine peritonitis, and experimental asthma in mice. Our study highlights 27a as an orally active, LCM-inspired drug candidate that limits inflammation with superior potency and metabolic stability to the endogenous lead.
