Abstract
Both artificially synthesized and naturally occurring cyclic chalcones have been widely studied for their excellent biological activities. However, research on its photophysical properties is still limited. In the present study, we designed and synthesized a small molecule fluorescent dye based on the ICT effect, using dimethylamino as the electron-donating group and carbonyl as the electron withdrawing group, and investigated its photophysical properties in depth. Although YB is a simple small molecule, it exhibits significant piezochromic properties. The fluorescence of YB can change from green to yellow through grinding. After solvent fumigation, the fluorescence reverts to green. Furthermore, YB was used successfully in the lysosomal targeting. This study expands the research on the photophysical properties of cyclic chalcone and give richness to application of cyclic chalcone compounds.

Design, Synthesis, and In Vivo Evaluation of a New Series of Indole-Chalcone Hybrids as Analgesic and Anti-Inflammatory Agents. ACS OMEGA 2024; 9:12175-12183. [PMID: 38497028 PMCID: PMC10938421 DOI: 10.1021/acsomega.4c00026] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/02/2024] [Revised: 02/08/2024] [Accepted: 02/19/2024] [Indexed: 03/19/2024]
Abstract
Indole-chalcone hybrids have burst into prominence as potent weapons in the battle against pain and inflammation due to their unique features, allowing these ligands to form pivotal interactions with biological targets. In this context, the base-catalyzed Claisen-Schmidt condensation of 3',4'-(methylenedioxy)acetophenone with heteroaromatic aldehydes carrying an indole scaffold yielded new chalcones (1-7). The central and peripheral antinociceptive activities of all chalcones (compounds 1-7) at the dose of 10 mg/kg (i.p.) were evaluated by hot plate (supraspinal response), tail immersion (spinal response), and acetic acid-induced writhing tests in mice. The anti-inflammatory activities of compounds 1-7 were also investigated by means of a carrageenan-induced mouse paw edema model. The results revealed that compounds 1-7 extended the latency of response to thermal stimulus significantly in a hot-plate test similar to dipyrone (300 mg/kg; i.p.), the positive control drug. However, only compounds 2-7 were found to be significantly effective in the tail-immersion test. Compounds 1-7 also significantly showed analgesic effect by reducing the number of writhes and anti-inflammatory activity by inhibiting edema formation at different time intervals and levels. 1-(1,3-Benzodioxol-5-yl)-3-(1-methyl-1H-indol-2-yl)prop-2-en-1-one (4) drew attention by providing the highest efficacy results in both acute analgesia and inflammation models. Based on the in silico data acquired from the QikProp module, compound 4 was predicted to possess favorable oral bioavailability and drug-like properties. Taken together, it can be concluded that chalcones (1-7), especially compound 4, are outstanding candidates for further research to investigate their potential use in the management of pain and inflammation.

Synthesis, Characterization, Antioxidant, and Anticancer Activity against Colon Cancer Cells of Some Cinnamaldehyde-Based Chalcone Derivatives. Biomolecules 2024; 14:216. [PMID: 38397453 PMCID: PMC10886690 DOI: 10.3390/biom14020216] [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: 01/17/2024] [Revised: 02/06/2024] [Accepted: 02/09/2024] [Indexed: 02/25/2024] Open
Abstract
The purpose of the current investigation was to produce cinammaldehyde-based chalcone derivatives (3a-k) to evaluate their potential effectiveness as antioxidant and inhibitory agents versus human Caco-2 cancer cells. The findings obtained using the DPPH assay showed that compound 3e had the highest effective antioxidant activity with the best IC50 value compared with the other compounds. Moreover, the cytotoxic findings revealed that compound 3e was the best compound for inhibiting Caco-2 development in contrast to all other produced derivatives, with the lowest IC50 concentration (32.19 ± 3.92 µM), and it also had no detrimental effects on healthy human lung cells (wi38 cells). Exposure of Caco-2 cells with this IC50 value of compound 3e resulted in a substantial rise in the number of early and late cells that are apoptotic with a significant comet nucleus when compared with control cells employing the annexin V/PI and comet evaluations, respectively. Furthermore, qRT-PCR and ELISA examinations indicated that compound 3e significantly altered the expression of genes and their relative proteins related to apoptosis in the treated Caco-2 cells, thus significantly inhibiting Caco-2 growth through activating Caspase-3 via an intrinsic apoptotic pathway. As a result, compound 3e could serve as an effective therapy for human colon cancer.

Abstract
Colon cancer poses a complex and substantial global health challenge, necessitating innovative therapeutic approaches. Chalcones, a versatile class of compounds with diverse pharmacological properties, have emerged as promising candidates for addressing colon cancer. Their ability to modulate pivotal signaling pathways in the development and progression of colon cancer makes them invaluable as targeted therapeutics. Nevertheless, it is crucial to recognize that although chalcones exhibit promise, further pre-clinical studies are required to validate their efficacy and safety. The journey toward effective colon cancer treatment is multifaceted, involving considerations such as optimizing the sequencing of therapeutic agents, comprehending the resistance mechanisms, and exploring combination therapies incorporating chalcones. Furthermore, the integration of nanoparticle-based drug delivery systems presents a novel avenue for enhancing the effectiveness of chalcones in colon cancer treatment. This review delves into the mechanisms of action of natural chalcones and some derivatives. It highlights the challenges associated with their use in pre-clinical studies, while also underscoring the advantages of employing chalcone-based nanoparticles for the treatment of colon cancer.

Abstract
In present work, a series of quinoline derivatives linked to chalcone moiety have been prepared, and their in vitro and in vivo antifungal activities against C. albicans have been evaluated. The results indicated that quinoline combined with fluconazole (FLC) showed good inhibitory activity against C. albicans. Especially, compound PK-10 combined with FLC displayed the best antifungal activity against 14 FLC-resistant C. albicans strains with almost no cytotoxicity. Preliminary mechanistic studies proved that PK-10 combined with FLC could inhibit the hyphae formation of C. albicans, induce the accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), the damage of mitochondrial membrane potential and the decrease of intracellular ATP content, which led to mitochondrial dysfunction. In vivo studies found obvious effects of the co-treatment regimen had obvious effects based on histological analysis, body weight curves, and coefficients of major organs. Therefore, the optimization of quinolone-chalcone derivatives combined with FLC could exert the potent antifungal activity in vitro and in vivo obviously, suggesting them as new agents to treat drug-resistant C. albicans infection.

Abstract
Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) is a group of persistent intestinal illnesses resulting from bowel inflammation unrelated to infection. The prevalence of IBD is rising in industrialized countries, increasing healthcare costs. Whether naturally occurring or synthetic, chalcones possess a broad range of biological properties, including anti-inflammatory, anti-microbial, and antioxidant effects. This investigation focuses on DKO7 (E)-3-(4-(dimethylamino)phenyl)-1-(5-methylfuran-2-yl)prop-2-en-1-one, a synthesized chalcone with potential anti-inflammatory effects in a zebrafish model of intestinal inflammation induced by Dextran sodium sulfate (DSS). The in vitro study displayed dose-dependent anti-inflammatory as well as antioxidant properties of DKO7. Additionally, DKO7 protected zebrafish larvae against lipid peroxidation, reactive oxygen stress (ROS), and DSS-induced inflammation. Moreover, DKO7 reduced the expression of pro-inflammatory genes, including TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6, and iNOS. Further, it reduced the levels of nitric oxide (NO) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) in the intestinal tissues of adult zebrafish and increased the levels of antioxidant enzymes such as Catalase (CAT) and superoxide dismutase (SOD). The protective effect of DKO7 against chemically (or DSS) induced intestinal inflammation was further verified using histopathological techniques in intestinal tissues. The furan-based chalcone derivative, DKO7, displayed antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Also, DKO7 successfully reverses the DSS-induced intestinal damage in zebrafish. Overall, this study indicates the ability of DKO7 to alleviate DSS-induced gut inflammation in an in-vivo zebrafish.

Abstract
In search for SDHIs fungicides, twenty-five novel carboxamides containing a chalcone scaffold were designed, synthesized, and evaluated for antifungal activities against five pathogenic fungi. The results showed that compound 5 k exhibited outstanding antifungal activity against R. solani with an EC50 value of 0.20 μg/mL, which was much better than that of commercial SDHIs Boscalid (EC50 =0.74 μg/mL). Moreover, compound 5 k also displayed promising antifungal activities against S. sclerotiorum, B. cinerea, and A. alternate (IC50 =2.53-4.06 μg/mL), indicating that 5 k had broad-spectrum antifungal activity. Additionally, in vivo antifungal activities results showed that 5 k could significantly inhibit the growth of R. solani in rice leaves with good protective efficacy (57.78 %) and curative efficacy (58.45 %) at 100 μg/mL, both of which were much better than those of Boscalid, indicating a promising application prospect. Moreover, SEM analysis showed that compound 5 k could remarkably disrupt the typical structure and morphology of R. solani hyphae. Further SDH enzyme inhibition assay and molecular docking study revealed that lead compound 5 k had a similar mechanism of action as commercial SDHI Boscalid. These results indicated that compound 5 k showed potential as a SDHIs fungicide and deserved further investigation.
