Abstract
The traditional single-treatment strategy for cancer is frequently unsuccessful due to the complexity of cellular signaling. However, suppression of multiple targets is vital to defeat tumor cells. In this research, new compounds for the treatment of cancer were developed successfully as novel hybrid anticancer agents. Based on a molecular hybridization strategy, we designed hybrid agents that target multiple protein kinases to fight cancer cells. The proposed hybrid agents combined purine and isatin moieties in their structures with 4-aminobenzohydrazide and hydrazine as different linkers. Having those two moieties in one molecule enabled the capability to inhibit multiple kinases, such as human epidermal receptor (EGFR), human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2), vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (VEGFR2) and cyclin-dependent kinase 2 (CDK2). Anticancer activity was evaluated by performing cytotoxicity assays, kinase inhibition assays, cell cycle analysis, and BAX, Bcl-2, Caspase 3 and Caspase 9 protein level determination assays. The results showed that the designed hybrids tackled the cancer by inhibiting both cell proliferation and metastasis. A molecular docking study was performed to predict possible binding interactions in the active site of the investigated protein kinase enzymes.

Novel quinoline-based derivatives: A new class of PDE4B inhibitors for adjuvant-induced arthritis. Eur J Med Chem 2022; 238:114497. [PMID: 35660249 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejmech.2022.114497] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/07/2022] [Revised: 05/22/2022] [Accepted: 05/25/2022] [Indexed: 11/24/2022]
Abstract
A total of 31 quinoline-based derivatives were designed and synthesized to develop novel anti-inflammatory drugs. After the toxicity of synthetic compounds to RAW264.7 cells were evaluated in vitro, their anti-inflammatory activity was assessed by inhibiting lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced NO production levels in the RAW264.7 cells. Among the derivatives, compound f4 had the best anti-inflammatory activity, which could reduce the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines NO, IL-1β, and TNF-α with corresponding IC50 values of 20.40 ± 0.94, 18.98 ± 0.21 and 23.48 ± 0.46 μM. Western blot showed that f4 could inhibit the expression of LPS-induced inflammatory mediators iNOS and COX-2. Molecular docking showed that f4 could also enter the PDE4B receptor binding pocket, and the cellular thermal shift assay method indicated that the PDE4B protein bound to f4 had increased stability. Meanwhile, the inhibitory effect of this compound on the PDE4B enzyme (IC50 = 0.94 ± 0.36 μM) was comparable to that of the positive drug rolipram (IC50 = 1.04 ± 0.28 μM). Finally, in vivo studies showed that f4 could improve the degree of foot swelling and knee joint pathology in adjuvant-induced arthritic rats and decrease the levels of serum inflammatory factors TNF-α and IL-1β in a dose-dependent manner. Therefore, the development and design of quinoline-based derivatives for anti-inflammatory applications could be considered opportunities and challenges.

Rapid Characterizaiton of Chemical Constituents of the Tubers of Gymnadenia conopsea by UPLC-Orbitrap-MS/MS Analysis. Molecules 2020; 25:molecules25040898. [PMID: 32085417 PMCID: PMC7070944 DOI: 10.3390/molecules25040898] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/20/2020] [Revised: 02/12/2020] [Accepted: 02/14/2020] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Gymnadenia conopsea R. Br. is a traditional Tibetan medicinal plant that grows at altitudes above 3000 m, which is used to treat neurasthenia, asthma, coughs, and chronic hepatitis. However, a comprehensive configuration of the chemical profile of this plant has not been reported because of the complexity of its chemical constituents. In this study, a rapid and precise method based on ultra-high performance liquid chromatography (UPLC) combined with an Orbitrap mass spectrometer (UPLC–Orbitrap–MS/MS) was established in both positive- and negative-ion modes to rapidly identify various chemical components in the tubers of G. conopsea for the first time. Finally, a total of 91 compounds, including 17 succinic acid ester glycosides, 9 stilbenes, 6 phenanthrenes, 19 alkaloids, 11 terpenoids and steroids, 20 phenolic acid derivatives, and 9 others, were identified in the tubers of G. conopsea based on the accurate mass within 3 ppm error. Furthermore, many alkaloids, phenolic acid derivates, and terpenes were reported from G. conopsea for the first time. This rapid method provides an important scientific basis for further study on the cultivation, clinical application, and functional food of G. conopsea.

Abstract
Various aryl-substituted purine derivatives were synthesized through the direct arylation of halopurines with aromatic compounds, facilitated by the combination of triflic acid and fluoroalcohol. This metal-free method is complementary to conventional coupling reactions using metal catalysts and reagents for the syntheses of aryl-substituted purine analogues.

Abstract
Sustained activation of STAT3 is closely related to the cancer development, but the inhibitors for STAT3 overexpression are still in the clinical research stage. In this study, a series of 2,6-disubstituted purine derivatives were designed and synthesized, and their biological activities, as small molecule inhibitors of STAT3, were assessed. Compound PD26-TL07 exhibited remarkable antiproliferative activity against three cancer cell lines (IC50 values for HCT-116, SW480 and MDA-MB-231 were 1.77 ± 0.35, 1.51 ± 0.19, and 1.25 ± 0.38 μM, respectively). Moreover, detailed biological assays revealed that PD26-TL07 could effectively inhibited STAT3 phosphorylation, and had little inhibition to others'. The newly discovered PD26-TL07 displayed an expecting anticancer effect both in vitro and in vivo. The molecular docking models revealed that PD26-TL07 could bind to the SH2 domain of STAT3. Three additional compounds (PD26-BZ01, PD26-TL03 and PD26-AS06) were also able to inhibit this phosphorylation. This study described novel 2,6-disubstituted purine derivatives as potent anticancer agents targeting STAT3.
