Stecoza CE, Nitulescu GM, Draghici C, Caproiu MT, Hanganu A, Olaru OT, Mihai DP, Bostan M, Mihaila M. Synthesis of 1,3,4-Thiadiazole Derivatives and Their Anticancer Evaluation. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:17476. [PMID: 38139304 PMCID: PMC10743895 DOI: 10.3390/ijms242417476] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/22/2023] [Revised: 12/11/2023] [Accepted: 12/12/2023] [Indexed: 12/24/2023] Open
Abstract
Thiadiazole derivatives have garnered significant attention in the field of medicinal chemistry due to their diverse pharmacological activities, including anticancer properties. This article presents the synthesis of a series of thiadiazole derivatives and investigates their chemical characterization and potential anticancer effects on various cell lines. The results of the nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) analyses confirmed the successful formation of the target compounds. The anticancer potential was evaluated through in silico and in vitro cell-based assays using LoVo and MCF-7 cancer lines. The assays included cell viability, proliferation, apoptosis, and cell cycle analysis to assess the compounds' effects on cancer cell growth and survival. Daphnia magna was used as an invertebrate model for the toxicity evaluation of the compounds. The results revealed promising anticancer activity for several of the synthesized derivatives, suggesting their potential as lead compounds for further drug development. The novel compound 2g, 5-[2-(benzenesulfonylmethyl)phenyl]-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-amine, demonstrated good anti-proliferative effects, exhibiting an IC50 value of 2.44 µM against LoVo and 23.29 µM against MCF-7 after a 48-h incubation and little toxic effects in the Daphnia test.

New 1,3,4-thiadiazoles as potential anticancer agents: pro-apoptotic, cell cycle arrest, molecular modelling, and ADMET profile. RSC Adv 2023; 13:15810-15825. [PMID: 37250214 PMCID: PMC10209631 DOI: 10.1039/d3ra02716c] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/24/2023] [Accepted: 05/11/2023] [Indexed: 05/31/2023] Open
Abstract
A series of novel 1,3,4-thiadiazoles was synthesized via the reaction of N-(5-(2-cyanoacetamido)-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl)benzamide (3) with different carbon electrophiles and evaluated as potential anticancer agents. The chemical structures of these derivatives were fully elucidated using various spectral and elemental analyses. Out of 24 new thiadiazoles, derivatives 4, 6b, 7a, 7d, and 19 have significant antiproliferative activity. However, derivatives 4, 7a, and 7d were toxic to the normal fibroblasts, and therefore were excluded from further investigations. Derivatives 6b and 19 with IC50 at less than 10 μM and with high selectivity were selected for further studies in breast cells (MCF-7). Derivative 19 arrested the breast cells at G2/M probably through inhibition of CDK1, while 6b significantly increased the sub-G1 percent of cells probably through induction of necrosis. These results were confirmed by the annexin V-PI assay where 6b did not induce apoptosis and increased the necrotic cells to 12.5%, and compound 19 significantly increased the early apoptosis to 15% and increased the necrotic cells to 15%. Molecular docking showed that compound 19 was like FB8, an inhibitor of CDK1, in binding the CDK1 pocket. Therefore, compound 19 could be a potential CDK1 inhibitor. Derivatives 6b and 19 did not violate Lipinski's rule of five. In silico studies showed that these derivatives have a low blood-brain barrier penetration capability and high intestinal absorption. Taken together, derivatives 6b and 19 could serve as potential anticancer agents and merit further investigations.

Abstract
Three copper(ii) tetraaza complexes [Cu(ii)LBr]Br (1a), [Cu(ii)L(CIO4)](CIO4) (2a) and [Cu(ii)L](CIO4)2 (2b), where L = 5,5,7,12,12,14-hexamethyl-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradeca-7,14-diene were prepared and confirmed by FTIR, 1HNMR and 13CNMR. The binding interaction of complex (1a, 2a, 2b) with calf thymus DNA (CT-DNA) was investigated using UV-vis absorption, luminescence titrations, viscosity measurements and molecular docking. The findings suggested that complex 1a, 2a and 2b bind to DNA by electrostatic interaction, and the strengths of the interaction were arranged according to 2b > 1a > 2a. The differences in binding strengths were certainly caused by the complexes' dissimilar charges and counter anions. Complex 2b, with the biggest binding strength towards the DNA, was further applied in developing the porcine sensor. The developed sensor exhibits a broad linear dynamic range, low detection limit, good selectivity, and reproducibility. Analysis of real samples showed that the biosensor had excellent selectivity towards the pork meat compared to chicken and beef meat.

Abstract
The present work describes the preparation of bivalent Ni(II), Co(II) and Cu(II) complexes of [(E)-[(2-methyl-1,3-thiazol-5-yl)methylidene]amino]thiourea (MTHC) by mixing in 1:2 ratio of corresponding metal salt and Schiff base ligand in ethanolic medium. The prepared ligand and its complexes are confirmed using elemental analysis, magnetic moments, FT-IR, NMR, electronic and ESR spectroscopy techniques. The spectroscopic data reveals that metal complexes are in square planar in nature. In DNA binding studies, the higher intrinsic binding constants (Kb) of Ni(II), Co(II) and Cu(II) complexes are 2.713 × 106 M−1, 5.529 × 106 M−1 and 2.950 × 106 M−1 respectively, evident that complexes are avid binder with DNA base pairs. The moderate anti-bacterial activity (in-vitro) against staphylococcus epidermidis, Bacillus subtilis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Escherichia coli bacterial culture may be due to the high electron density of ligand which prevents the charge reduction of metal ion. In the presence and absence of H2O2, it is notified that there is no appreciable DNA cleavage activity of Ni(II) and Co(II) complexes except Cu(II) complex which is due to aprotonation in the medium.

Abstract
In the present study, the interactions between Erythromycin drug and calf thymus deoxyribonucleic acid (ct-DNA) were explored by multi spectroscopic techniques (UV-Visible, fluorescence, circular dichroism spectroscopies), viscosity, molecular docking simulation, and atomic force microscopy (AFM). In addition, the values of binding constant were calculated by the UV-Visible and fluorescence spectroscopy. Competitive fluorescence study with methylene blue (MB), acridine orange (AO), and Hoechst 33258 were indicated that the Erythromycin drug could displace the DNA-bound Hoechst, which displays the strong competition of Erythromycin with Hoechst to interact with the groove binding site of DNA. In addition, the observed complexes in AFM analysis comprise the chains of ct-DNA and Erythromycin with an average size of 314.05 nm. The results of thermodynamic parameter calculations (ΔS° = -332.103 ± 14 J mol-1 K-1 and ΔH° = -115.839 ± 0.02 kJ mol-1) approved the critical role of van der Waals forces and hydrogen bonds in the complexation of Erythromycin-DNA. Fluorescence spectroscopy results demonstrate the existence of a static enhancement mechanism in the interaction of Erythromycin-DNA. According to the obtained results, Erythromycin drug interacts with the major groove of ct-DNA. These consequences were further supported by the molecular docking study, and it could be determined that DNA-Erythromycin docked model was in a rough correlation with our experimental results.Communicated by Ramaswamy H.
