Abstract
Many researchers around the world are working on the development of novel anticancer drugs with different mechanisms of action. In this case, coumarin is a highly promising pharmacophore for the development of novel anticancer drugs. Besides, the hybridization of this moiety with other anticancer pharmacophores has emerged as a potent breakthrough in the treatment of cancer to decrease its side effects and increase its efficiency. This review aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the recent development of coumarin derivatives and their application as novel anticancer drugs. Herein, we highlight and describe the largest number of research works reported in this field from 2015 to August 2023, along with their mechanisms of action and structure-activity relationship studies, making this review different from the other review articles published on this topic to date.

Abstract
A series of novel 3-substituted-4-hydroxycoumarins 7 and 8 containing (5-aryl-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl)thio or (4-amino-5-aryl-4H-1,2,4-triazol-3-yl)thio moieties have been synthesized and evaluated as anticancer agents. The in vitro MTT assay of compounds against hepatocellular carcinoma (HepG2), breast cancer (MCF7) cells, and a human colorectal adenocarcinoma cell line with epithelial morphology (HT29) indicated that the HepG2 cells had more susceptibility to the tested compounds. Indeed, all compounds (with the exception of 7b, 7c, 7g, and 8g) were more potent than the standard drug doxorubicin against HepG2 cells (IC50 values=1.65-3.83 μM). Although, the better result was obtained with the oxadiazole analog 7h against HepG2 (IC50 =1.65 μM), the N-amino-triazole derivatives 8c, 8e, 8f and, 8h with IC50 values of 1.78-6.34 μM showed potent activity against all tested cell lines. The good drug-like properties and in vitro potency and selectivity of 4-hydroxycoumarins 8 make them as good leads for the development of new anticancer agents.

[PMID: 35288962 DOI: 10.1111/jcpt.13644] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/23/2021] [Revised: 02/09/2022] [Accepted: 02/24/2022] [Indexed: 12/25/2022]
Abstract
WHAT IS KNOWN AND OBJECTIVE The main objective of this review is to highlight the most relevant studies since 1990 (to date) in the area of medicinal chemistry aspects to provide a panoramic view to the biologists/medicinal chemists working in this area and would assist them in their efforts to design, synthesize and extract (from natural source) coumarin-based anticonvulsant agents. Also, the structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies are also discussed for further rational design of this kind of derivatives. It is hoped that this review will be helpful for new thoughts in the quest for rational designs of more active and less toxic coumarin-based antiepileptic agents. METHODS A literature review emphasizing the application of coumarin core as antiepileptic agents identify articles related to the topic; we performed a standardized search from 1990 to November 2021, using search engines like Scifinder, web of Science, Pubmed and Scopus. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION This review gives an overview of attempts to shed light and compile published reports on coumarin derivatives along with some opinions on different approaches to help the medicinal chemists in designing future generation potent yet safer anticonvulsant agents. The possible structure-activity relationships (SARs) will also be discussed to indicate the direction for the rational design of more effective candidates. WHAT IS NEW AND CONCLUSION The findings from this review provide new indications or directions for the discovery of new and better drugs from synthetic and naturally occurring coumarins as antiepileptic agents. In our review, we have tried to depict the recent researches which made in the design and development of novel anticonvulsant compounds with coumarin nucleus. Also, SAR of expressed derivatives indicated that the choice of a fitting substitution containing electron-withdrawing/donating groups to coumarin or with some heterocyclic moieties joined to parent coumarin skeleton assumes an essential role in changing the anticonvulsant activity of synthesized derivatives. These findings encourage the scientific community towards the optimization of the pharmacological profile of this structural moiety as an important scaffold for the treatment of epilepsy.

Eur J Med Chem 2022; 228:114035. [PMID: 34902735 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejmech.2021.114035] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/29/2021] [Revised: 11/11/2021] [Accepted: 11/30/2021] [Indexed: 01/07/2023]
Abstract
Many populations suffer from thrombotic disorders such as stroke, myocardial infarction, unstable angina and thromboembolic disease. Thrombus is one of the major threatening factors to human health and the prevalence of cardio-cerebrovascular diseases induced by thrombus is growing worldwide, even some persons got rare and severe blood clots after receiving the AstraZeneca COVID vaccine unexpectedly. In terms of mechanism of thrombosis, antithrombotic drugs have been divided into three categories including anticoagulants, platelet inhibitors and fibrinolytics. Nowadays, a large number of new compounds possessing antithrombotic activities are emerging in an effort to remove the inevitable drawbacks of previously approved drugs such as the high risk of bleeding, a slow onset of action and a narrow therapeutic window. In this review, we describe the causes and mechanisms of thrombus formation firstly, and then summarize these reported active compounds as potential antithrombotic candidates based on their respective mechanism, hoping to promote the development of more effective bioactive molecules for treating thrombotic disorders.

Abstract
Molecular modeling in pharmacology is a promising emerging tool for exploring drug interactions with cellular components. Recent advances in molecular simulations, big data analysis, and artificial intelligence (AI) have opened new opportunities for rationalizing drug interactions with their pharmacological targets. Despite the obvious utility and increasing impact of computational approaches, their development is not progressing at the same speed in different fields of pharmacology. Here, we review current in silico techniques used in cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), cardiological drug discovery, and assessment of cardiotoxicity. In silico techniques are paving the way to a new era in cardiovascular medicine, but their use somewhat lags behind that in other fields.

Abstract
In this study, we applied a direct condensation between 3-acetyl-4-hydroxy-2H-chromen-2-one and different amines (anilines and benzyl amines) in order to synthesize some coumarin-based imines/enamines (3a-o) as cytotoxic agents. All the compounds were characterized by means of FT-IR, NMR, mass spectroscopy and elemental analyses. Since the title compounds can exist as different forms including (s-cis)-imine and (s-trans)-imine or (E and Z)-enamines, their conformational and geometrical aspects were investigated computationally by DFT method. The optimized geometry parameters, ΔE, ΔG, ΔH, Mulliken atomic charge, HOMO and LUMO energy, and NBO analysis suggested that these compounds can exist predominantly in (E)-enamine form. All the synthesized compounds (3a-o) were evaluated in vitro for their cytotoxic activities against cancer cell lines (MCF-7 and A549) and normal cell line (BEAS-2B) using the MTT assay. The 4-hydroxybenzyl derivative 3k was found to be the most potent cytotoxic agent with no selectivity, similar to doxorubicin. However, the 4-chlorobenzyl analog 3o could be considered as an equipotent compound respect to doxorubicin with higher selectivity.

Abstract
The present study was directed to investigate the effect of precotreatment with (E)-N'-(1-(7-hydroxy-2-oxo-2H-chromen-3-yl) ethylidene) benzohydrazide (7-hyd.HC), a novel potent synthesized coumarin, on isoproterenol- (ISO-) induced myocardial infarction (MI) in rats. The hydrazone compound was characterized by IR, 1D, and 2D NMR analyses. Experimental induction of MI in rats was established by ISO (85 mg/kg/day, s.c) for two consecutive days (6th and 7th days). 7-hyd.HC or sintrom was given for 7 days prior and simultaneous to ISO injection. 7-hyd.HC offered a cardiopreventive effect by preventing heart injury marker leakage (LDH, ALT, AST, CK-MB, and cTn-I) from cardiomyocytes and normalizing cardiac function and ECG pattern, as well as improving lipid profile (TC, TG, LDL-C, and HDL-C), which were altered by ISO administration. Moreover, 7-hyd.HC precotreatment significantly mitigated the oxidative stress biomarkers, as evidenced by the decrease of lipid peroxidation and the increased level of the myocardial GSH level together with the SOD, GSH-Px, and catalase activities. 7-hyd.HC inhibited the cardiac apoptosis by upregulating the expression of Bcl-2 and downregulating the expression of Bax and caspase-3 genes. In addition, 7-hyd.HC reduced the elevated fibrinogen rate and better prevented the myocardial necrosis and improved the interstitial edema and neutrophil infiltration than sintrom. Overall, 7-hyd.HC ameliorated the severity of ISO-induced myocardial infarction through improving the oxidative status, attenuating apoptosis, and reducing fibrinogen production. The 7-hyd.HC actions could be mediated by its antioxidant, antiapoptotic, and anti-inflammatory capacities.
