Abstract
Synthetic sulfonamide anticancer drugs, including E7820, indisulam, tasisulam, and chloroquinoxaline sulfonamide, exhibit diverse mechanisms of action and therapeutic potential, functioning as molecular glue degraders. E7820 targets RBM39, affecting RNA splicing and angiogenesis by suppressing integrin α2. Phase I studies have demonstrated some stability in advanced solid malignancies; however, further efficacy studies are required. Indisulam causes G1 cell cycle arrest and delays the G1/S transition by modulating splicing through RBM39 degradation via DCAF15. Despite its limited initial efficacy, it shows promise in combination therapies, particularly for hematopoietic malignancies and gliomas. Tasisulam inhibits VEGF signaling, suppresses angiogenesis, and induces apoptosis. Although early trials indicated broad activity, safety concerns have halted its development. Chloroquinoxaline sulfonamide, initially investigated for cell cycle arrest and topoisomerase II inhibition, was discontinued owing to its limited efficacy and toxicity, despite promising initial results. Recent studies revealed the structural interaction of E7820 with DCAF15 and RBM39, although phase II trials on myeloid malignancies have shown limited efficacy. Indisulam is effective against glioblastoma and neuroblastoma, with potential synergy in combination therapies and metabolic disruption. Recent research on tasisulam reveals its potential in cancer therapy by targeting RBM39 degradation through DCAF15-mediated pathways. Understanding these mechanisms could lead to new treatments that affect alternative splicing and improve cancer therapies Overall, although these drugs exhibit promising mechanisms of action, further research is required to optimize their clinical efficacy and safety.

Abstract
Uncontrolled diabetes can lead to hyperglycemia, which causes neuropathy, heart attacks, retinopathy, and nervous system damage over time, therefore, controlling hyperglycemia using potential drug target inhibitors is a promising strategy. This work focused on synthesizing new derivatives via the diazo group, using a hybridization strategy involving two approved drugs, paracetamol and several sulfonamides. The newly designed diazo-paracetamols 5-12 were fully characterized and then screened for in vitro α-amylase and α-glucosidase activities and exhibited inhibitory percentages (IP) = 92.5-96.5 % and 91.0-95.7 % compared to Acarbose IP = 96.5 and 95.8 %, respectively at 100 μg/mL. The IC50 values of the synthesized derivatives were evaluated against α-amylase and α-glucosidase enzymes, and the results demonstrated moderate to potent activity. Among the tested diazo-paracetamols, compound 11 was found to have the highest potency activity against α-amylase with IC50 value of 0.98 ± 0.015 μM compared to Acarbose IC50 = 0.43 ± 0.009 μM, followed by compound 10 (IC50 = 1.55 ± 0.022 μM) and compound 9 (IC50 = 1.59 ± 0.023 μM). On the other hand, for α-glucosidase, compound 10 with pyrimidine moiety demonstrated the highest inhibitory activity with IC50 = 1.39 ± 0.021 μM relative to Acarbose IC50 = 1.24 ± 0.029 μM and the order of the most active derivatives was 10 > 9 (IC50 = 2.95 ± 0.046 μM) > 11 (IC50 = 5.13 ± 0.082 μM). SAR analysis confirmed that the presence of 4,5-dimethyl-isoxazole or pyrimidine nucleus attached to the sulfonyl group is important for activity. Finally, the docking simulation was achieved to determine the mode of binding interactions for the most active derivatives in the enzyme's active site.

Abstract
Cancer is a major global health challenge, being the second leading cause of morbidity and mortality after cardiovascular disease. The growing economic burden and profound psychosocial impact on patients and their families make it urgent to find innovative and effective anticancer solutions. For this reason, interest in using natural compounds to develop new cancer treatments has grown. In this respect, antofine, an alkaloid class found in Apocynaceae, Lauraceae, and Moraceae family plants, exhibits promising biological properties, including anti-inflammatory, anticancer, antiviral, and antifungal activities. Several molecular mechanisms have been identified underlying antofine anti-cancerous effects, including the inhibition of nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) and AKT/mTOR signaling pathways, epigenetic inhibition of protein synthesis, ribosomal targeting, induction of apoptosis, inhibition of DNA synthesis, and cell cycle arrest. This study discusses the molecular structure, sources, photochemistry, and anticancer properties of antofine in relation to its structure-activity relationship and molecular targets. Then, examine in vitro and in vivo studies and analyze the mechanisms of action underpinning antofine efficacy against cancer cells. This review also discusses multidrug resistance in human cancer and the potential of antofine in this context. Safety and toxicity concerns are also addressed as well as current challenges in antofine research, including the need for clinical trials and bioavailability optimization. This review aims to provide comprehensive information for more effective natural compound-based cancer treatments.

Abstract
Phytophthora capsici is an important plant pathogenic oomycete that causes great losses to vegetable production around the world. Antofine is an important alkaloid isolated from Cynanchum komarovii Al. Iljinski and exhibits significant antifungal activity. In this study, the effect of antofine on the mycelial growth, morphology, and physiological characteristics of P. capsici was investigated using colorimetry. Meanwhile, the activity of mitochondrial respiratory chain complexes of P. capsici was evaluated following treatment with a 30% effective concentration (EC30), as well as EC50 and EC70, of antofine for 0, 12, 24, and 48 h. The results showed that antofine had a significant inhibitory effect against P. capsici, with an EC50 of 5.0795 μg/mL. After treatment with antofine at EC50 and EC70, the mycelia were rough, less full, and had obvious depression; they had an irregular protrusion structure; and they had serious wrinkles. In P. capsici, oxalic acid and exopolysaccharide contents decreased significantly, while cell membrane permeability and glycerol content increased when treated with antofine. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) entered a burst state in P. capsici after incubation with antofine for 3 h, and fluorescence intensity was 2.43 times higher than that of the control. The activities of the mitochondrial respiratory chain complex II, III, I + III, II + III, V, and citrate synthase in P. capsici were significantly inhibited following treatment with antofine (EC50 and EC70) for 48 h compared to the control. This study revealed that antofine is likely to affect the pathways related to the energy metabolism of P. capsici and thus affect the activity of respiratory chain complexes. These results increase our understanding of the action mechanism of antofine against P. capsici.

Abstract
A concise method for the synthesis of cis-(8b,14a)-hexahydro-14H-dibenzo[f,h]oxazolo[3,2-b]isoquinolin-14-ones 2 via photo-induced 3-([1,1'-biphenyl]-2-yl)-1-(2-hydroxyethyl)pyridin-2(1H)-ones 1 was developed. Irradiation of 1 in the solution of toluene with a 313 nm UV light in the presence of HCl gave cis-(8b,14a)-9a-α-hexahydro-14H-dibenzo[f,h]oxazolo[3,2-b]isoquinoli n-14-ones and cis-(8b,14a)-9a-β-hexahydro-14H-dibenzo[f,h]oxazolo[3,2-b]isoquinolin-14-ones 2 (2-α and 2-β) in good yields. The protocol simultaneously constructs dearomatized phenanthrene ring and oxindolizidinones ring by photo cascade reaction to achieve high bonding efficiency and high atomic efficiency. Additionally, the antitumor activities of 2 was evaluated and compounds 2b-α, 2b-β, 2j-β and 2 k-α showed similar or better activity compared to the cisplatin against tumor cell lines of Leukemia HL-60, lung cancer A594, liver cancer SMMC-7721 and breast cancer MDA-MB-231.

Abstract
The formation of N-heterocycles with multiple substituents is important in organic synthesis. Herein, we report a novel method for the construction of functionalized dihydropyridinone rings through the annulation of an amide α-carbon with a tethered alkyne moiety. The reaction of the amide with the alkyne was achieved via O-silyl N,O-ketene acetal formation and silver-mediated addition. Furthermore, the developed method was applied for the total synthesis of phenanthroindolizidine and phenanthroquinolizidine alkaloids. By varying the coupling partners, a concise and collective total synthesis of these alkaloids was achieved.

Abstract
Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) belongs to a heterogenous cancer group arising from renal tubular epithelial cells. Among RCC subtypes, clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) is the most common variant, characterized by high aggressiveness, invasiveness and metastatic potential, features that lead to poor prognosis and high mortality rate. In addition, diagnosis of kidney cancer is incidental in the majority of cases, and this results in a late diagnosis, when the stage of the disease is advanced and the tumor has already metastasized. Furthermore, ccRCC treatment is complicated by its strong resistance to chemo- and radiotherapy. Therefore, there is active ongoing research focused on identifying novel biomarkers which could be useful for assessing a better prognosis, as well as new molecules which could be used for targeted therapy. In this light, several novel targeted therapies have been shown to be effective in prolonging the overall survival of ccRCC patients. Thus, the aim of this review is to analyze the actual state-of-the-art on ccRCC diagnosis, prognosis and therapeutic options, while also reporting the recent advances in novel biomarker discoveries, which could be exploited for a better prognosis or for targeted therapy.

Abstract
A series of divalent and one trivalent metal chelates of the azo ligand resulting from coupling of sulfafurazole diazonium chloride with resorcinol have been designed and synthesized. Structure investigation of the isolated chelates have been achieved by applying spectroscopic and analytical tools which collaborated to assure the formation of the metal chelates in the molar ratios of 1L: 1M for Ni(II), Co(II), and Fe(III) chelates, where Cu(II) and Zn(II) complexes formed in the ratio 2L : 1M. The geometrical arrangement around the metal canters was concluded from UV-Vis spectra to be octahedral for all metal chelates. The attachment of the ligand to the metal ions took place through the azo group nitrogen and o-hydroxyl oxygen through proton displacement leading to the ligand being in monobasic bidentate binding mode. Antimicrobial and antitumor activities of the interested compounds have been evaluated against alternative microorganisms and cancer cells, respectively, in a trial to investigate their extent of activity in addition to docking studies. The mode of interaction of the compounds with SS-DNA has been examined by UV-Vis spectra and viscosity studies.

Abstract
To search for novel medicines for intervention of triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), a series of phenylsulfonyl furoxan-based 2,4-diaminopyrimidine derivatives (8a-t) were designed and synthesized based on blocking FAK-mediated signaling pathways through both kinase-dependent and -independent manners. The most active compound 8f not only significantly inhibited FAK kinase activity (IC50 = 27.44 nM), displayed potent inhibitory effects on the proliferation (IC50 = 0.126 μM), invasion and migration of MDA-MB-231 cells, superior to the most widely studied FAK inhibitor, TAE226, bearing 2,4-diaminopyrimidine, but also released high levels of NO, contributing to blockage of FAK mediated-signaling pathways by upregulating of p53 as well as suppressing the Y397 phosphorylation and its downstream effectors, including p-Akt, MMP-2, and MMP-9 via kinase-independent manner, leading to apoptosis induction and decrease of FAs and SFs in TNBC cells. Importantly, 8f inhibited the lung metastasis of TNBC in vivo. Together, 8f may serve as a promising candidate for the treatment of metastatic TNBC.

Abstract
Quinolizidine alkaloids isolated from various marine and terrestrial animals and plants are primarily composed of lupinine-, matrine-, and sparteine-type alkaloids. Matrine, phenanthroquinolizidines, bis-quinolizidines, and small molecules from amphibian skins are representative compounds of such alkaloids. Quinolizidine alkaloids harbor anticancer, antibacterial, antiinflammatory, antifibrosis, antiviral, and anti-arrhythmia. In this chapter, we comprehensively outline the biological activity and pharmacological action of quinolizidine alkaloids and discuss new avenues toward the discovery of novel and more efficient drugs based on these naturally occurring compounds. It is urgent for basic research and clinical practice to conduct more targeted comprehensive research based on the lead drugs of quinolizidine alkaloids with significant pharmacological activity.

Abstract
Aziridines are readily available C(sp3) precursors that afford valuable β-functionalized amines upon ring opening. In this article, we report a Ni/photoredox methodology for C(sp3)-C(sp3) cross-coupling between aziridines and methyl/1°/2° aliphatic alcohols activated as benzaldehyde dialkyl acetals. Orthogonal activation modes of each alkyl coupling partner facilitate cross-selectivity in the C(sp3)-C(sp3) bond-forming reaction: the benzaldehyde dialkyl acetal is activated via hydrogen atom abstraction and β-scission via a bromine radical (generated in situ from single-electron oxidation of bromide), whereas the aziridine is activated at the Ni center via reduction. We demonstrate that an Ni(II) azametallacycle, conventionally proposed in aziridine cross-coupling, is not an intermediate in the productive cross-coupling. Rather, stoichiometric organometallic and linear free energy relationship studies indicate that aziridine activation proceeds via Ni(I) oxidative addition, a previously unexplored elementary step.

Abstract
NH-Sulfonimidamides are prepared by copper-catalyzed coupling of primary sulfinamides with secondary amines. Neither a ligand nor an additive is needed, and air is the terminal oxidant. The reactions occur at room temperature, show good functional group tolerance, and lead to products in good yields. A sulfanenitrile is proposed as an intermediate in this oxidative amination.

Abstract
Sulfonamides have a special role on medicine due to their broad biological activities, as bacterial infections, diabetes mellitus, oedema, hypertension prevention and treatment. In addition, sulfonamides are also useful in herbicides and pesticides. Herein, we communicate an efficient strategy for the preparation of sulfonamides via NH4I‐mediated amination of sodium sulfinates. This new method provides a general and environmentally friendly access to sulfonamide compounds and tolerates a wide range of functional groups.

Abstract
A Ni-catalyzed (4 + 2) cycloaddition of bicyclic 3-azetidinones and alkynes was developed to access indolizidine and quinolizidine alkaloids. A key element was the development of a diazomethylation procedure that allows the efficient synthesis of bicyclic azetidinones from pyroglutamic and 6-oxopiperidine-2-carboxylic acid. A ligand screening led to improved regioselectivity and enantiopurity during the Ni-catalyzed (4 + 2) cycloaddition. This straightforward methodology was leveraged to synthesize (+)-ipalbidine, (+)-septicine, (+)-seco-antofine, and (+)-7-methoxy-julandine.

Abstract
Spiro-heterocycles containing natural products and synthetic analogues have a broader biomedicinal application due to their rigid 3D conformation and structural implications. In this context, constructing spiro-isoxazoline systems have continued our interest in natural products and synthetic units to investigate their novel biological activities. Herein, a bromo-lactamization mediated neighboring group participation approach has been utilized on various isoxazole-amides to construct an array of spiro-isoxazoline-lactams. The easy synthesis with diverse functionalization in the periphery of a novel 3D framework could be interesting for biomedical investigation.

Abstract
Primary arylsulfonamide functional groups feature prominently in diverse pharmaceuticals. However, natural arylsulfonamides are relatively infrequent. In this work, two novel arylsulfonamide natural products were first synthesized, and then a series of novel molecules derived from natural arylsulfonamides were designed and synthesized, and their in vitro cytotoxic activities against A875, HepG2, and MARC145 cell lines were systematically evaluated. The results indicate that some of these arylsulfonamide derivatives exhibit significantly good cytotoxic activity against the tested cell lines compared with the control 5-fluorouracil (5-FU), such as compounds 10l, 10p, 10q, and 10r. In particular, the potential molecule 10q, containing a carbazole moiety, exhibited the highest inhibitory activity against all tested cell lines, with IC50 values of 4.19 ± 0.78, 3.55 ± 0.63, and 2.95 ± 0.78 μg/mL, respectively. This will offer the potential to discover novel drug-like compounds from the sparsely populated area of natural products that can lead to effective anticancer agents.

Abstract
A three-component Pd-catalysed aminosulfonylation reaction of K2S2O5 and amine with aryl bromides or aromatic carboxylic acids was developed. This strategy was developed to utilise mechanical energy and accommodate primary as well as secondary aliphatic and aromatic amines to provide a new shortcut to a wide range of sulfonamides. Studies on the scope and limitations of the reaction indicated its tolerance of a vast range of functional groups and many structural patterns. The reactions were scaled up to gram quantities.

Abstract
Alkaloids are nitrogen-containing organic compounds widely found in natural products, which play an essential role in clinical treatment. Cellular signaling pathways in tumors are a series of enzymatic reaction pathways that convert extracellular signals into intracellular signals to produce biological effects. The ordered function of cell signaling pathways is essential for tumor cell proliferation, differentiation, and programmed death. This review describes the antitumor progression mediated by various alkaloids after inhibiting classical signaling pathways; related studies are systematically retrieved and collected through PubMed. We selected the four currently most popular pathways for discussion and introduced the molecular mechanisms mediated by alkaloids in different signaling pathways, including the NF-kB signaling pathway, PI3K/AKT signaling pathway, MAPK signaling pathway, and P53 signaling pathway. The research progress of alkaloids related to tumor signal transduction pathways and the realization of alkaloids as cancer prevention drugs by targeting signal pathways remains.

Abstract
The hydrosulfamoylation of diverse aryl olefins provides facile access to alkylsulfonamides. Here we report a novel protocol utilizing radical-mediated addition and a thiol-assisted strategy to achieve the hydrosulfamoylation of diverse styrenes in modest to excellent yields under mild and economic reaction conditions. The methodology was found to provide an efficient and convenient approach for the synthesis of the anti-migraine drug naratriptan and it also can be used for the late-stage functionalization of natural products or medicines.

Abstract
Nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT) catalyzes the N-methylation reaction of nicotinamide, using S-adenosyl-L-methionine as the methyl donor. Enzyme overexpression has been described in many non-neoplastic diseases, as well as in a wide range of solid malignancies. This review aims to report and discuss evidence available in scientific literature, dealing with NNMT expression and the potential involvement in main urologic neoplasms, namely, renal, bladder and prostate cancers. Data illustrated in the cited studies clearly demonstrated NNMT upregulation (pathological vs. normal tissue) in association with these aforementioned tumors. In addition to this, enzyme levels were also found to correlate with key prognostic parameters and patient survival. Interestingly, NNMT overexpression also emerged in peripheral body fluids, such as blood and urine, thus leading to candidate the enzyme as promising biomarker for the early and non-invasive detection of these cancers. Examined results undoubtedly showed NNMT as having the capacity to promote cell proliferation, migration and invasiveness, as well as its potential participation in fundamental events highlighting cancer progression, metastasis and resistance to chemo- and radiotherapy. In the light of this evidence, it is reasonable to attribute to NNMT a promising role as a potential biomarker for the diagnosis and prognosis of urologic neoplasms, as well as a molecular target for effective anti-cancer treatment.

Triazolo Based-Thiadiazole Derivatives. Synthesis, Biological Evaluation and Molecular Docking Studies. Antibiotics (Basel) 2021; 10:antibiotics10070804.

Abstract
The goal of this research is to investigate the antimicrobial activity of nineteen previously synthesized 3,6-disubstituted-1,2,4-triazolo[3,4-b]-1,3,4-thiadiazole derivatives. The compounds were tested against a panel of three Gram-positive and three Gram-negative bacteria, three resistant strains, and six fungi. Minimal inhibitory, bactericidal, and fungicidal concentrations were determined by a microdilution method. All of the compounds showed antibacterial activity that was more potent than both reference drugs, ampicillin and streptomycin, against all bacteria tested. Similarly, they were also more active against resistant bacterial strains. The antifungal activity of the compounds was up to 80-fold higher than ketoconazole and from 3 to 40 times higher than bifonazole, both of which were used as reference drugs. The most active compounds (2, 3, 6, 7, and 19) were tested for their inhibition of P. aeruginosa biofilm formation. Among them, compound 3 showed significantly higher antibiofilm activity and appeared to be equipotent with ampicillin. The prediction of the probable mechanism by docking on antibacterial targets revealed that E. coli MurB is the most suitable enzyme, while docking studies on antifungal targets indicated a probable involvement of CYP51 in the mechanism of antifungal activity. Finally, the toxicity testing in human cells confirmed their low toxicity both in cancerous cell line MCF7 and non-cancerous cell line HK-2.

Mini Rev Med Chem 2021; 20:2052-2066. [PMID: 32888265 DOI: 10.2174/1389557520666200905125738] [Citation(s) in RCA: 34] [Impact Index Per Article: 11.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/07/2020] [Revised: 08/07/2020] [Accepted: 08/11/2020] [Indexed: 11/22/2022]
Abstract
Sulfonamides have been in clinical use for many years, and the development of bioactive substances containing the sulfonamide subunit has grown steadily in view of their important biological properties such as antibacterial, antifungal, antiparasitic, antioxidant, and antitumour properties. This review addresses the medicinal chemistry aspects of sulfonamides; covering their discovery, the structure- activity relationship and the mechanism of action of the antibacterial sulfonamide class, as well as the physico-chemical and pharmacological properties associated with this class. It also provides an overview of the various biological activities inherent to sulfonamides, reporting research that emphasises the importance of this group in the planning and development of bioactive substances, with a special focus on potential antitumour properties. The synthesis of sulfonamides is considered to be simple and provides a diversity of derivatives from a wide variety of amines and sulfonyl chlorides. The sulfonamide group is a non-classical bioisostere of carboxyl groups, phenolic hydroxyl groups and amide groups. This review highlights that most of the bioactive substances have the sulfonamide group, or a related group such as sulfonylurea, in an orientation towards other functional groups. This structural characteristic was observed in molecules with distinct antibacterial activities, demonstrating a clear structure-activity relationship of sulfonamides. This short review sought to contextualise the discovery of classic antibacterial sulfonamides and their physico-chemical and pharmacological properties. The importance of the sulfonamide subunit in Medicinal Chemistry has been highlighted and emphasised, in order to promote its inclusion in the planning and synthesis of future drugs.

Abstract
Identification of drug-pathway associations plays an important role in pathway-based drug repurposing. However, it is time-consuming and costly to uncover new drug-pathway associations experimentally. The drug-induced transcriptomics data provide a global view of cellular pathways and tell how these pathways change under different treatments. These data enable computational approaches for large-scale prediction of drug-pathway associations. Here we introduced DPNetinfer, a novel computational method to predict potential drug-pathway associations based on substructure-drug-pathway networks via network-based approaches. The results demonstrated that DPNetinfer performed well in a pan-cancer network with an AUC (area under curve) = 0.9358. Meanwhile, DPNetinfer was shown to have a good capability of generalization on two external validation sets (AUC = 0.8519 and 0.7494, respectively). As a case study, DPNetinfer was used in pathway-based drug repurposing for cancer therapy. Unexpected anticancer activities of some nononcology drugs were then identified on the PI3K-Akt pathway. Considering tumor heterogeneity, seven primary site-based models were constructed by DPNetinfer in different drug-pathway networks. In a word, DPNetinfer provides a powerful tool for large-scale prediction of drug-pathway associations in pathway-based drug repurposing. A web tool for DPNetinfer is freely available at http://lmmd.ecust.edu.cn/netinfer/.

Abstract
In a search for new, selective antitumor agents, we prepared a series of sulfonamides built on bicyclic scaffolds of 2-azabicyclo(2.2.1)heptane and 2-azabicyclo(3.2.1)octane. To this end, aza-Diels–Alder cycloadducts were converted into amines bearing 2-azanorbornane or a bridged azepane skeleton; their treatment with sulfonyl chlorides containing biaryl moieties led to the title compounds. The study of antiproliferative activity of the new agents showed that some of them inhibited the growth of chosen cell lines with the IC50 values comparable with cisplatin, and some derivatives were found considerably less toxic for nonmalignant cells.

Abstract
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is the most aggressive type of breast cancer, characterized by the lack of expression of estrogen receptor, progesterone receptor, and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2. Owing to the absence of molecular targets, there are limited treatment options, and TNBC patients exhibit high mortality rates. Signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) is overexpressed and aberrantly activated in TNBC cells. Therefore, inhibition of STAT3-mediated signaling provides a potential strategy for the treatment of TNBC. In this study, A series of synthetic derivatives of SLSI-1 (a STAT3 inhibitor) were designed and evaluated for antitumor activity in TNBC cells. A novel derivative (SLSI-1216) exhibited the most potent anti-proliferative activity. SLSI-1216 effectively inhibited STAT3 activity and activation of STAT3, leading to the downregulation of AXL, a downstream target of STAT3 and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) progression. The inhibition of EMT by SLSI-1216 was associated with modulation of E-cadherin and N-cadherin. Furthermore, SLSI-1216 induced apoptosis by targeting STAT3 and effectively inhibited tumor growth in vivo. These findings suggest that SLSI-1216, as a potential inhibitor of STAT3, may be a promising therapeutic agent for TNBC.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess the performance of thiol Michael photocurable composites based on ester-free thiols and vinyl sulfonamides of varying monomer structures and varied filler loadings and to contrast the properties of the prototype composites with conventional BisGMA-TEGDMA methacrylate composite. METHODS Synthetic divinyl sulfonamides and ester-free tetrafunctional thiol monomers were utilized for thiol-Michael composite development with the incorporation of thiolated microfiller. Polymerization kinetics was investigated using FTIR spectroscopy. Resin viscosities were assessed with rheometry. Water uptake properties were assessed according to standardized methods. Thermomechanical properties were analyzed by dynamic mechanical analysis. Flexural modulus/strength and flexural toughness were measured on a universal testing machine in three-point bending testing mode. RESULTS The vinyl sulfonamide-based thiol-Michael resin formulation demonstrated a wide range of viscosities with a significant increase in the functional group conversion when compared to the BisGMA-TEGDMA system. The two different types of vinyl sulfonamide under investigation demonstrated significant differences towards the water sorption. Tertiary vinyl sulfonamide did not undergo visible swelling whereas the secondary vinyl sulfonamide composite swelled extensively in water. With the introduction of rigid monomer into the polymer matrix the glass transition temperature increased and so increased the toughness. Glassy thiol-Michael composites were obtained by ambient curing. SIGNIFICANCE Employing the newly developed step-growth thiol-Michael resins in dental composites will provide structural uniformity, improved stability and lower water sorption.

Abstract
Cancer chemotherapies or antitumor agents mainly remain the backbone of current treatment based on killing the rapidly dividing cancer cell such as tylophora alkaloids and their analogues which have also demonstrated anticancer potential through diverse biological pathways including regulation of the immune system. The introduction of durable clinically effective monoclonal antibodies, however, unmasked a new era of cancer immunotherapies. Therefore, the understanding of cancer pathogenesis will provide new possible treatment options, including cancer immunotherapy and targeted agents. Combining cytotoxic agents and immunotherapies may offer several unique advantages that are complementary to and potentially synergistic with biologic modalities. Herein, we highlight the dynamic mechanism of action of immune modulation in cancer and the immunological aspects of the orally active antitumor agents tylophora alkaloids and their analogues. We also suggest that future cancer treatments will rely on the development of combining tumor-targeted agents and biologic immunotherapies.

Abstract
The emergence of colorectal cancer in developed nations can be attributed to dietary habits, smoking, a sedentary lifestyle and obesity. Several treatment regimens are available for primary and metastatic colorectal cancer; however, these treatment options have had limited impact on cure and disease‑free survival, and novel agents need to be developed for treating colorectal cancer. Thus, the objective of this study was to explore the anticancer mechanism of a benzo(1,3)dioxol‑based derivative of sulfonamide. The compound's inhibitory effect on cell proliferation was determined using the MTT assay and the xCelligence RTDP machine. Alternations in the expression of Bcl‑2 and inhibitor of apoptosis protein families were detected by western blotting. Apoptotic marker protein expression, including cytochrome c and cleaved poly(ADP‑ribose)polymerase was measured in the cytosolic extract of cells. Apoptosis and necrosis were detected by flow cytometry and immunofluorescence. Reactive oxygen species (ROS), and activation of caspase‑3 and caspase‑7 were measured using flow cytometry. Activation of the JNK pathway was detected by western blotting. We investigated the molecular mechanism of action of the sulfonamide derivative on colorectal cancer cells and found that the compound possesses a potent anticancer effect, which is primarily exerted by inducing apoptosis and necrosis. Interestingly, this compound exhibited little antiproliferative effect against the normal colonic epithelial cell line FHC. Furthermore, our results showed that the compound could significantly increase ROS production. Apoptosis induction could be attenuated by the free oxygen radical scavenger N‑acetyl cysteine (NAC), indicating that the antiproliferative effect of this compound on colorectal cancer cells is at least partially dependent on the redox balance. In addition, JNK signaling was activated by treatment with this derivative, which led to the induction of apoptosis. On the contrary, a JNK inhibitor could suppress the cell death induced by this compound. Our findings thus suggested a novel anticancer mechanism of a benzo(1,3)dioxol‑based derivative of sulfonamide for colorectal cancer cells and may have therapeutic potential for the treatment of colorectal cancer; however, further investigation is required.

Abstract
Phenanthroindolizidine alkaloids that possess profound anti-proliferative activity and unique mode of action have recently attracted much attention as potential anti-cancer drug candidates. To intensively study the structure-activity-relationship, we designed, synthesized, and evaluated a series of derivatives of 6-desmethylantofine at C-6 position. Most of the derivatives exhibited potent anti-proliferative activity in BEL-7402 and HL60cells. Compound R-12, the cyanomethyl ether of 6-desmethylantofine, exhibited significant anti-cancer activity and inhibited the proliferation of a panel of 30 cancer cell lines including 2 multi-drug-resistant cell lines with an average IC50 value of 18.7 nM, which suggests that R-12 is a promising new anti-cancer agent. Our studies suggest that R-12 displayed potent inhibitory effect on cell growth and colony formation, which is associated with delaying S phase progression by inhibiting DNA synthesis in human hepatoma cancer BEL-7402, SMMC-7721 and ZIP-177 cells.

Abstract
Fusarium head blight caused by the fungal pathogen Fusarium graminearum is a devastating disease of cereal crops worldwide, with limited effective chemical treatments available. Here we show that the natural alkaloid compound antofine can inhibit fusarium head blight in wheat. Using yeast genomic screening, we identified the TOR pathway component RRD2 as a target of antofine that is also required for F. graminearum pathogenicity. Antofine, a phenanthroindolizidine alkaloid, is a bioactive natural product isolated from milkweeds that exhibits numerous biological activities, including anticancer, antimicrobial, antiviral, and anti-inflammatory properties. However, the direct targets and mode of action of antofine have not been determined. In this report, we show that antofine displays antifungal properties against the phytopathogen Fusarium graminearum, the cause of Fusarium head blight disease (FHB). FHB does devastating damage to agriculture, causing billions of dollars in economic losses annually. We therefore sought to understand the mode of action of antofine in F. graminearum using insights from yeast chemical genomic screens. We used haploinsufficiency profiling (HIP) to identify putative targets of antofine in yeast and identified three candidate targets, two of which had homologs in F. graminearum. The Fusarium homologues of two targets, glutamate dehydrogenase (FgGDH) and resistance to rapamycin deletion 2 (FgRRD2), can bind antofine. Of the two genes, only the Fgrrd2 knockout displayed a loss of virulence in wheat, indicating that RRD2 is an antivirulence target of antofine in F. graminearum. Mechanistically, we demonstrate that antofine disrupts the interaction between FgRRD2 and FgTap42, which is part of the Tap42-phosphatase complex in the target of rapamycin (TOR) signaling pathway, a central regulator of cell growth in eukaryotes and a pathway of extensive study for controlling numerous pathologies.

Abstract
We describe the screening of a set of cryptopleurine derivatives, namely thienoquinolizidine derivatives and (epi-)benzo analogs with bioactive phenanthroquinolizidine alkaloids that induce cytotoxic effects in the mouse lymphocytic leukemia cell line L1210. We used three variants of L1210 cells: i) parental cells (S) negative for P-glycoprotein (P-gp) expression; ii) P-glycoprotein positive cells (R), obtained by selection with vincristine; iii) P-glycoprotein positive cells (T), obtained by stable transfection with a human gene encoding P-glycoprotein. We identified the most effective derivative 11 with a median lethal concentration of ≈13 μM in all three L1210 cell variants. The analysis of the apoptosis/necrosis induced by derivative 11 revealed that cell death was the result of apoptosis with late apoptosis characteristics. Derivative 11 did not induce a strong alteration in the proportion of cells in the G1, S or G2/M phase of the cell cycle, but a strong increase in the number of S, R and T cells in the subG1 phase was detected. These findings indicated that we identified the most effective inducer of cell death, derivative 11, and this derivative effectively induced cell death in S, R and T cells at similar inhibitory concentrations independent of P-gp expression.

Abstract
Cancer is one of the most critical problems of public health in the world and one of the main challenges for medicine. Different biological effects have been reported for sulfonamide-based compounds including antibacterial, antifungal, and antitumor activities. Herein, a series of phenylpropanoid-based sulfonamides (4a, 4a', 4b, 4b', 5a, 5a', 5b and 5b') were synthesized and their cytotoxic activity was evaluated against four cell lines derived from human tumours (A549 - lung, MCF-7 - breast, Hep G2 - hepatocellular carcinoma, and HT-144-melanoma). Cell viability was significantly reduced in the MCF-7 cell line when compounds 4b, 4b' and 5a were used; IC50 values were lower than those found for their precursors (eugenol and dihydroeugenol) and sulfanilamide. We observed that 4b induced cell cycle arrest at G1/S transition. This is probably due to its ability to reduce cyclin D1 and cyclin E expression. Moreover, 4b also induced apoptosis in MCF-7 cells as demonstrated by an increase in the cell population positive for annexin V in treated cultures in comparison to the control group. Taken together, the data showed that 4b is a promising antitumor agent and it should be considered for further in vivo studies.

Abstract
Two series of boehmeriasin A analogs have been synthesized in short and high yielding processes providing derivatives differing either in the alkaloid's pentacyclic scaffold or its peripheral substitution pattern. These series have enabled, for the first time, comparative studies into key biological properties revealing a new lead compound with exceptionally high activity against liver cancer cell lines in the picomolar range for both well (Huh7, Hep3B and HepG2) and poorly (Mahlavu, FOCUS and SNU475) differentiated cells. The cell death was characterized as apoptosis by cytochrome-C release, PARP protein cleavage and SubG1 cell cycle arrest. Subsequent testing associated apoptosis via oxidative stress with in situ formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and altered phospho-protein levels. Compound 19 decreased Akt protein phosphorylation which is crucially involved in liver cancer tumorigenesis. Given its simple synthetic accessibility and intriguing biological properties this new lead compound could address unmet challenges within liver cancer therapy.

Abstract
To study the influence of the substituent at the N-10 position on antiviral activity, the chiral quaternary ammonium salt derivatives of R- and S-tylophorine were designed, synthesized, and evaluated for antiviral activity against tobacco mosaic virus (TMV). The bioassay results indicated that most of the designed structural analogues showed good in vivo anti-TMV activity, among which propargyl quaternary ammonium salt compound S-7b showed the best anti-TMV activities (80.5%, 77.6%, 76.6%, 82.1%) at 500 μg/mL both in vitro and in vivo in the laboratory. In the field trials of antiviral efficacy against TMV, S-7b as well exhibited better activities than control plant virus inhibitors. The stability of compound S-7b was obviously increased, and its solubility was more than 500-times higher than that of S-tylophorine. Therefore, chiral quaternary ammonium salt S-7b was expected to be developed as a promising candidate as an inhibitor of plant virus.

Abstract
A series of dehydroabietic acid (DHAA) dipeptide derivatives containing the sulfonamide moiety were designed, synthesized and evaluated for inhibition of MMPs as well as the effects of in vitro cell migration. These compounds exhibited relatively good inhibition activity against MMPs with IC50 values in low micromolar range. A docking study of the most active compound 8k revealed key interactions between 8k and MMP-3 in which the sulfonamide moiety and the dipeptide group were important for improving activity. It is noteworthy that further antitumor activity screening revealed that some compounds exhibited better inhibitory activity than the commercial anticancer drug 5-FU. In particular, compound 8k appeared to be the most potent compound against the HepG2 cell line, at least partly, by inhibition of the activity of MMP-3 and apoptosis induction. The treatment of HepG2 cells with compound 8k resulted in inhibition of in vitro cell migration through wound healing assay and G1 phase of cell cycle arrested. In addition, 8k-induced apoptosis was significantly facilitated in HepG2 cells. Thus, we conclude that DHAA dipeptide derivatives containing the sulfonamide moiety may be the potential MMPs inhibitors with the ability to suppress cells migration.
