Targeting yeast topoisomerase II by imidazo and triazoloacridinone derivatives resulting in their antifungal activity. Sci Rep 2024; 14:3594. [PMID: 38351313 PMCID: PMC10864382 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-54252-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/11/2023] [Accepted: 02/10/2024] [Indexed: 02/16/2024] Open
Abstract
Fungal pathogens are considered as serious factors for deadly diseases and are a case of medical concern. Invasive fungal infections also complicate the clinical course of COVID-19, leading to a significant increase in mortality. Furthermore, fungal strains' multidrug resistance has increased the demand for antifungals with a different mechanism of action. The present study aimed to identify antifungal compounds targeting yeast topoisomerase II (yTOPOII) derived from well-known human topoisomerase II (hTOPOII) poisons C-1305 and C-1311. Two sets of derivatives: triazoloacridinones (IKE1-8) and imidazoacridinones (IKE9-14) were synthetized and evaluated with a specific emphasis on the molecular mechanism of action. Our results indicated that their effectiveness as enzyme inhibitors was not solely due to intercalation ability but also as a result of influence on catalytic activity by the formation of covalent complexes between plasmid DNA and yTOPOII. Lysine conjunction increased the strength of the compound's interaction with DNA and improved penetration into the fungal cells. Triazoloacridinone derivatives in contrast to starting compound C-1305 exhibited moderate antifungal activity and at least twice lower cytotoxicity. Importantly, compounds (IKE5-8) were not substrates for multidrug ABC transporters whereas a derivative conjugated with lysine (IKE7), showed the ability to overcome C. glabrata fluconazole-resistance (MIC 32-64 µg mL-1).

Abstract
DNA interactions with multivalent ligand(s) have increasingly become the subject of substantial research. For several small molecules with therapeutic potential, nucleic acids serve as their primary molecular target. Such interaction has been shown to affect transcription or replication, ultimately leading to apoptotic cell death. As a result, researchers are becoming increasingly interested in understanding how small molecules interact with DNA making it possible to develop new, DNA-specific drugs. The bioactive indole alkaloid, Yohimbe (Yohimbine; Yh) has been broadly studied in pharmacological properties while its binding mode to DNA has not been explicated so far. This study adopted molecular modelling and multi-spectroscopic methods to investigate the interaction between Yohimbine and herring testes (HT DNA) in physiological conditions. Minor hypochromic and bathochromic shifts of fluorescence intensity were observed, suggesting the binding of Yh to HT DNA. The Scatchard plot analyses using the McGhee-von Hipple method revealed non-cooperative binding and affinities in the range of 105 M-1. The thermodynamic parameters suggested exothermic binding, which was favoured by negative enthalpy and positive entropy changes from temperature-dependent fluorescence experiments. Salt-dependent fluorescence suggested that the interaction between the ligand and DNA was governed by non-polyelectrolytic forces. The results of iodide quenching, urea denaturation assay, dye displacement, and in silico molecular docking, suggested groove binding of Yh to HT DNA. Thus, the groove binding mechanism of interaction was validated by both biophysical and computational techniques. The structural elucidation and energetic profiling of Yh's interaction with naturally occurring polymeric DNA can be useful to the development of DNA-targeted therapeutics.

Abstract
In the search for novel, metal-based drug complexes that may be of value as anticancer agents, five new transition metal complexes of sulfaclozine (SCZ) with Cu(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Zn(II), and Fe(II) were successfully synthesized. The chemical structure of each complex was characterized using elemental analysis (CHN), IR spectroscopy, UV–Vis spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and electronic paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy. IR spectra indicated that the donor atoms were one sulfonyl oxygen atom and one pyrazine nitrogen atom, which associated with the metal ions to form a stable hexagonal coordination ring. The metal–ligand stability constant (Kf) revealed that Cu(II) and Ni(II) have good coordination stability among the metal compounds. Theoretical studies using DFT/B3LYP were performed to further validate the proposed structures. The obtained results indicated that Cu(II) has a trigonal bipyramidal geometry, whereas Fe(II), Co(II), and Ni(II) have an octahedral structure, while Zn(II) has a tetrahedral arrangement. The bio-activities of the characterized complexes were evaluated using DNA binding titration and molecular docking. The binding constant values for the metal complexes were promising, with a maximum value for the copper metal ion complex, which was 9 × 105 M-1. Molecular docking simulations were also carried out to evaluate the interaction strength and properties of the synthesized metal complexes with both DNA and selected cancer-relevant proteins. These results were supported by in vitro cytotoxicity assays showing that the Cu(II) and Ni(II) complexes display promising antitumor activity against colon and breast cancer cell lines.

Abstract
4-Octylphenol is an endocrine disruptor, belonging to environmental estrogens. It can be enriched in the human body through the food chain and may harm human health. Herein, we used a variety of spectroscopic techniques, molecular docking, and gel electrophoresis to study the interaction of 4-octylphenol and ctDNA. It was found that the mechanism of ctDNA quenching the endogenous fluorescence of 4-octylphenol was static quenching, and formed a complex. The negative enthalpy change (ΔH°), entropy change (ΔS°) and Gibbs free energy (ΔG°) have shown that 4-octylphenol and ctDNA spontaneously bind together under the action of hydrogen bonds and van der Waal's force. Viscosity, melting temperature and iodide quenching experiments showed that 4-octylphenol acted on the groove of ctDNA. Insignificant change in circular dichromism spectra further confirmed this binding mode. The binding sites and groups for 4-octylphenol and ctDNA interaction were identified by molecular docking. Gel electrophoresis found that 4-octylphenol at high concentrations caused DNA cleavage. Above findings may lay a theoretical foundation for understanding the toxicity mechanism of 4-octylphenol.

Abstract
Ruthenium complexes have stood out by several mononuclear complexes which have entered
into clinical trials, such as imidazolium [trans-RuCl4(1H-imidazole)(DMSO-S)] (NAMI-A) and
([Ru(II)(4,4'-dimethyl-2,2'-bipyridine)2-(2(2'-,2'':5'',2'''-terthiophene)-imidazo[4,5-f] [1,10]phenanthroline)]
2+) (TLD-1433), opening a new avenue for developing promising ruthenium-based anticancer
drugs alternative to Cisplatin. Polynuclear ruthenium complexes were reported to exhibit synergistic
and/or complementary effects: the enhanced DNA structural recognition and DNA binding as well as
in vitro anticancer activities. This review overviews some representative polynuclear ruthenium
complexes acting as DNA structural probes, DNA binders and in vitro anticancer agents, which were
developed during last decades. These complexes are reviewed according to two main categories of
homo-polynuclear and hetero-polynuclear complexes, each of which is further clarified into the metal
centers linked by rigid and flexible bridging ligands. The perspective, challenges and future efforts
for investigations into these exciting complexes are pointed out or suggested.

Abstract
In the present work, the synthesis, characterization (FT-IR, multinuclear (1H and 13C) NMR, AAS, Raman, and elemental analyses), DNA binding (cyclic voltammetry, UV-Vis spectroscopy), and in vitro biological screening of nine new ferrocene-incorporated thioureas (A1-A9) are reported. Furthermore, the single-crystal X-ray structure of compound A8 was also determined. The ferrocene-based N,N'-disubstituted thioureas were derived by allowing the ferrocenyl anilines to react with freshly prepared isothiocyanates under a N2 atmosphere in dry acetone. The DNA binding studies performed by cyclic voltammetry and UV-Vis spectroscopy produced results that are in close agreement with one another for the binding constants (K) and an electrostatic mode of interaction was observed. The DFT/B3LYP method was used to determine the charge distribution and HOMO/LUMO energies of the optimized structure. The DFT calculated HOMO and LUMO energies correlate well with the experimentally determined redox potential values. The synthesized ferrocenyl thioureas exhibited good scavenging activity against the 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl radical (DPPH). These complexes were also scanned for their in vitro cytotoxic activity against MCF-7 carcinoma cells, and also towards the non-cancerous cell line MCF-10A. The results showed modest cytotoxicity against the subjected cancer cell line compared with a standard chemotherapeutic drug (cisplatin). However, these ferrocenyl derivatives have fewer toxic effects in normal cells.

Abstract
Four novel copper(ii) complexes [Cu(II)(Bp4mT)(μ-Cl)]2 (), [Cu(II)(μ-Bp4mT)Br]2 (), [Cu(II)(HBpT)Cl] (), and [Cu(II)(HBpT)Br] () (Bp4mT = 2-benzoylpyridine-4-methylthiosemicarbazone, HBpT = 2-benzoylpyridine thiosemicarbazone), were synthesized and characterized using single-crystal X-ray diffraction, elemental analysis, infrared, and ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy. X-ray analysis revealed that complexes and based on the Bp4mT ligand presented dimeric structures in which the Cu(ii) ions were located in a five-coordinated distorted square-pyramidal geometry, whereas both and complexes were mononuclear with the Cu(ii) ions exhibiting a tetracoordinated square planar configuration. Their interactions with calf thymus DNA (CT-DNA) were investigated using viscosity measurements and fluorescence spectroscopy. Multispectroscopic evidence has shown interactions between these complexes and human serum albumin (HSA). All these complexes have exhibited efficient oxidative cleavage of supercoiled DNA in the presence of hydrogen peroxide, presumably via an oxidative mechanism. Furthermore, in vitro cytotoxicity studies of against human liver hepatocellular carcinoma cells (HepG-2), human large cell lung carcinoma cells (NCI-H460), and human cervical carcinoma cells (HeLa) indicated their promising antitumor activity with quite low IC50 values in the range of 0.08-1.98 μM, which are 83 times lower than those of cisplatin. The mechanistic studies revealed that four complexes, which induced early apoptosis, were involved in reactive oxygen species generation and DNA cleavage for their antitumor activities.

Abstract
Molecular interaction of darunavir (DRV), a HIV protease inhibitor with calf thymus deoxyribonucleic acid (ct-DNA) was studied in physiological buffer (pH7.4) by multi-spectroscopic approaches hand in hand with viscosity measurements and molecular docking technique. The UV absorption and fluorescence results together revealed the formation of a DRV-ct-DNA complex having binding affinities of the order of 103M-1, which was more in keeping with the groove binding. The results that DRV bound to ct-DNA via groove binding mode was further evidenced by KI quenching studies, viscosity measurements, competitive binding investigations with EB and Rhodamine B and CD spectral analysis. The effect of ionic strength indicated the negligible involvement of electrostatic interaction between DRV and ct-DNA. The thermodynamic parameters regarding the binding interaction of DRV with ct-DNA in terms of enthalpy change (ΔH0) and entropy change (ΔS0) were -63.19kJ mol-1 and -141.92J mol-1K-1, indicating that hydrogen bonds and van der Waals forces played a predominant role in the binding process. Furthermore, molecular simulation studies suggested that DRV molecule was prone to bind in the A-T rich region of the minor groove of DNA.

Abstract
Although the interactions of oligopyridine ruthenium complexes with DNA have been widely studied, the biological activity of similar diruthenium oligopyridine complexes conjugated with peptides has not been investigated. Herein, we report the stepwise synthesis and characterization of diruthenium complexes with the general formula [(La)Ru(tppz)Ru(Lb)]n+ (tppz = 2,3,5,6-tetra(2-pyridyl)pyrazine, La = 2,2':6',2''-terpyridine or 4-phenyl-2,2':6',2''-terpyridine and Lb = 2,2':6',2''-terpyridine-4'-CO(Gly1-Gly2-Gly3-LysCONH2) (5), (6), n = 5; 2,2':6',2''-terpyridine-4'-CO(Gly1-Gly2-Lys1-Lys2CONH2) (7), (8), n = 6; 2,2':6',2''-terpyridine-4'-CO(Ahx-Lys1Lys2CONH2) (9), (10), n = 5, Ahx = 6-aminohexanoic acid). The compounds [(trpy)Ru(tppz)Ru(trpy-CO2H)](PF6)4, (2)(PF6)4, [(ptrpy)Ru(tppz)Ru(trpy-CO2H)](PF6)4, (3)(PF6)4 and [(ptrpy)Ru(tppz)Ru(trpy)](PF6)4, (4)(PF6)4 were also characterized by single crystal X-ray methods. Moreover, the interactions of the chloride salts (5), (6) and (4) with the self-complementary dodecanucleotide duplex d(5'-CGCGAATTCGCG-3')2 were studied by NMR spectroscopic techniques. The results show that complex (4) binds in the central part of the oligonucleotide, from the minor groove through the ligand ptrpy, while the ligand trpy, which was located on the other side of the diruthenium core, does not contribute to the binding. Complex (5) binds similarly, through the ligand ptrpy. However, the induced upfield shifts of the ptrpy proton signals are significantly lower than the corresponding ones in the case of (4), indicating much lower binding affinity. This is clear evidence that the tethered peptide Gly1-Gly2-Gly3-Lys1CONH2 hinders the complex binding, even though it contains groups that are able to assist it (e.g., the positively charged amino group of lysine, the peptidic backbone, the terminal amide). Complex (6) shows a non-specific binding, interacting through electrostatic forces. The chloride salts of (4), (5) and (6) had insignificant effects on the cell cycle distribution and marginal cytotoxicity (IC50 > 750 μM) against human lung cancer cell lines H1299 and H1437, indicating that their binding to the oligonucleotide is not a sufficient condition for their cytotoxicity.

Abstract
Two novel Ru(II) complexes [(η6-p-cymene)RuCl(L2)]PF6 (R2) and [(η6-C6H6)RuCl(L2)]PF6 (R4), with ligand (E)-N-((6-bromopyridin-2-yl)methylene)-4-(methylthio)aniline (L2), were synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, 1H NMR, 13C NMR and IR spectroscopy. Based on X-ray crystallography studies, complexes R2 and R4 have coordination environments with formulated (η6-p-cymene)Ru(N2Cl) and (η6-C6H6)Ru(N2Cl), respectively. The thermal stabilities of compounds R2 and R4 were studied by thermal gravimetric (TG) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Thermal decomposition of these complexes was at 280°C and 260°C under air atmosphere respectively. The interaction of these complexes with calf thymus DNA (CT-DNA) was explored through electronic absorption spectra, fluorescence and redox behavior studies. The results showed that the complexes bind to CT-DNA with electrostatic interactions. Nanoparticles of RuO2 were prepared by calcination of R2 and R4. Also the role of the ultrasound waves on the characteristics of the RuO2 nanoparticles was studied. The nanoparticles were characterized by IR spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction (XRD). Also size and morphology of nanoparticles were studied by scanning electron microscopy (SEM).

Abstract
With the long-term aim of enhancing the binding properties of dinuclear RuII -based DNA light-switch complexes, a series of eight structurally related mono- and dinuclear systems are reported in which the linker of the bridging ligand has been modulated. These tethered systems have been designed to explore issues of steric demand at the binding site and the thermodynamic cost of entropy loss upon binding. Detailed spectroscopic and isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) studies on the new complexes reveal that one of the linkers produces a dinuclear system that binds to duplex DNA with an affinity (Kb >107 m-1 ) that is higher than its corresponding monometallic complex and is the highest affinity for a non-threading bis-intercalating metal complex. These studies confirm that the tether has a major effect on the binding properties of dinuclear complexes containing intercalating units and establishes key design rules for the construction of dinuclear complexes with enhanced DNA binding characteristics.

Abstract
Two new zinc(ii) complexes, [Zn(l-His)(NIP)]+(1) and [Zn(acac)2(NIP)](2) (where NIP is 2-(naphthalen-1-yl)-1H-imidazo[4,5-f][1,10]phenanthroline, acac = acetyl acetone), have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, UV-vis, fluorescence, IR, 1H NMR and electron spray ionization mass spectroscopies. Gel retardation assay, atomic force microscopy and dynamic light scattering studies show that 1 and 2 can induce the condensation of circular plasmid pBR322 DNA into nanometer size particles under ambient conditions. Treatment of 2 with 5 mM EDTA restored 30% of the supercoiled form of DNA, revealing partial reversibility of DNA condensation. The in vitro transfection experiment demonstrates that the complexes can be used to deliver pCMV-tdTomato-N1 plasmid which expresses red fluorescent protein. The confocal studies show that the fluorescent nature of complexes is advantageous for visualizing the intracellular delivery of metal complexes as well as transfection efficiency using two distinct emission windows.

Abstract
A series of arene Ru(II) complexes coordinated with phenanthroimidazole derivatives, [(η⁶-C₆H₆)Ru(l)Cl]Cl(1b L = p-ClPIP = 2-(4-Chlorophenyl)imidazole[4,5f] 1,10-phenanthroline; 2b L = m-ClPIP = 2-(3-Chlorophenyl)imidazole[4,5f] 1,10-phenanthroline; 3b L = p-NPIP = 2-(4-Nitrophenyl)imidazole[4,5f] 1,10-phenanthroline; 4b L = m-NPIP = 2-(3-Nitrophenyl) imidazole [4,5f] 1,10-phenanthroline) were synthesized in yields of 89.9%-92.7% under conditions of microwave irradiation heating for 30 min to liberate four arene Ru(II) complexes (1b, 2b, 3b, 4b). The anti-tumor activity of 1b against various tumor cells was evaluated by MTT assay. The results indicated that this complex blocked the growth of human lung adenocarcinoma A549 cells with an IC50 of 16.59 μM. Flow cytometric analysis showed that apoptosis of A549 cells was observed following treatment with 1b. Furthermore, the in vitro DNA-binding behaviors that were confirmed by spectroscopy indicated that 1b could selectively bind and stabilize bcl-2 G-quadruplex DNA to induce apoptosis of A549 cells. Therefore, the synthesized 1b has impressive bcl-2 G-quadruplex DNA-binding and stabilizing activities with potential applications in cancer chemotherapy.

Abstract
We report in this work a new family of homo- and heterobimetallic complexes of the type [(bpy)2M(Py-Biimz)M'(II)(bpy)2](2+) (M = M' = Ru(II) or Os(II); M = Ru(II) and M' = Os(II)) derived from a pyrenyl-biimidazole-based bridge, 2-imidazolylpyreno[4,5-d]imidazole (Py-BiimzH2). The homobimetallic Ru(II) and Os(II) complexes were found to crystallize in monoclinic form with space group P21/n. All the complexes exhibit strong absorptions throughout the entire UV-vis region and also exhibit luminescence at room temperature. For osmium-containing complexes (2 and 3) both the absorption and emission band stretched up to the NIR region and thus afford more biofriendly conditions for probable applications in infrared imaging and phototherapeutic studies. Detailed luminescence studies indicate that the emission originates from the respective (3)MLCT excited state mainly centered in the [M(bpy)2](2+) moiety of the complexes and is only slightly affected by the pyrene moiety. The bimetallic complexes show two successive one-electron reversible metal-centered oxidations in the positive potential window and several reduction processes in the negative potential window. An efficient intramolecular electronic energy transfer is found to occur from the Ru center to the Os-based component in the heterometallic dyad. The binding studies of the complexes with DNA were thoroughly studied through different spectroscopic techniques such as UV-vis absorption, steady-state and time-resolved emission, circular dichroism, and relative DNA binding study using ethidium bromide. The intercalative mode of binding was suggested to be operative in all cases. Finally, computational studies employing DFT and TD-DFT were also carried out to interpret the experimentally observed absorption and emission bands of the complexes.

Abstract
We describe the binding characteristics of two natural borates (colemanite and ulexite) to calf thymus DNA by UV-vis absorbance spectroscopy, circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, and a competitive DNA binding assay. Our results suggest that colemanite and ulexite interact with calf thymus DNA under a non-intercalative mode of binding and do not alter the secondary structure of the DNA helix. The FT-IR spectroscopy results indicate that the two borates might interact with DNA through sugar-phosphate backbone binding.

Abstract
Metals have been studied as potential chemotherapeutic agents for cancer therapies due to their high reactivity toward a wide variety of substances. The characterization of metal ion-binding capacities is essential to understand the possible effects of metals on target biomolecules. In the present study, biochemical effects of Au(III) and Ga(III) ions on calf thymus DNA (ctDNA) were studied comparatively via bioanalytical, spectroscopic, and thermal methods. Briefly, UV-Vis absorbance spectroscopy, fluorescence spectroscopy, circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy, and Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy were utilized for spectroscopic characterization, and isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) measurements were performed for thermal analysis. Our results reveal that both Au(III) and Ga(III) ions are capable of interacting with ctDNA, and Au(III) ions display a more favorable interaction and a higher binding affinity. ITC analyses indicate that the Au(III)-DNA interaction displays a binding affinity (Ka) around 1.43 × 10(6) M(-1), while a Ka around 1.17 × 10(5) M(-1) was observed for the Ga(III)-DNA binding. It was suggested that both metal ions are unlikely to change the structural B-conformation while interacting with ctDNA.

Abstract
The specific interactions of Cu(2+) with self-complementary DNA sequences involving d[G4C4(GC)2G4C4], d[(GC)10], and d[(AT)10], as well as the chiral recognition mechanism of ofloxacin enantiomers via the Cu(II)-modulated DNAs, were investigated using characterizations of circular dichroism, gel electrophoresis, FT-IR spectroscopy, UV melting measurement, electron paramagnetic resonance, and HPLC. The Cu(II)-coordinated GC-rich DNAs exhibit amplified enantioselectivity toward the S-enantiomer of ofloxacin. Especially in the case of d[G4C4(GC)2G4C4], ofloxacin enantiomers intercalate into the two adjacent guanine bases through the minor groove mediated by Cu(2+), which leads to a more favorable binding between S-ofloxacin and DNA. The highest ee value of ofloxacin enantiomers in the permeate after being adsorbed by the Cu(II)-DNA complex is obtained as 49.2% in the R-enantiomer at the [Cu(2+)]/[base] molar ratio of 0.25, while at the [Cu(2+)]/[base] molar ratio of 0.05 the highest ee value of ofloxacin enantiomers in the retentate reaches 26.3% in the S-enantiomer. This work illustrates a novel promising route to construct DNA-based chiral selectors toward certain drug enantiomers through the programmable enantioselective recognition on the basis of DNA chirality and the specific binding of transition metal ions.

Abstract
A novel Ru(II) complex of [Ru(bpy)2(Hbcpip)](ClO4)2 {where bpy=2,2-bipyridine, Hbcpip=2-(4-(9H-3,9'-bicarbazol-9-yl)phenyl)-1H-imidazo[4,5-f][1,10]phenanthroline} is synthesized and characterized. Calf-thymus DNA-binding properties of the complex were studied by UV-vis absorption and luminescence titrations, steady-state emission quenching by [Fe(CN)6](4-), DNA competitive binding with ethidium bromide, thermal denaturation and DNA viscosity measurements. The results indicate that the complex partially intercalated into the DNA with a binding constant of (5.5±1.4)×10(5) M(-1) in buffered 50 mM NaCl. The acid-base properties of the complex were also studied by UV-visible and luminescence spectrophotometric pH titrations, and ground- and excited-state acidity ionization constant values were derived.

Abstract
An arene ruthenium(ii) complex coordinated with 2-(2-chlorophenyl)-1H-imidazo[4,5-f][1,10]phenanthroline, [(η6-C6H6)Ru(o-ClPIP)Cl]Cl (1), has been prepared by using microwave-assisted synthesis technology. The anti-tumour activity of this complex against various tumour cells has been evaluated by MTT assay and the results show that complex 1 exhibits selective inhibitory activity against the growth of human lung adenocarcinoma A549 cells with IC50 = 31.58 μM. Further studies by flow cytometric analysis showed that apoptosis of A549 cells was observed when dealt with complex 1. Furthermore, complex 1 exhibits excellent binding affinity with DNA molecules which was confirmed by spectroscopy methods, as well viscosity and melting point experiments. As a result, the conformation of DNA molecules was disturbed by complex 1.
