Abstract
While natural products have undeniably played a crucial role in drug discovery, challenges such as limited availability and complex synthesis methods have hindered the identification of lead compounds. At the core of numerous natural and synthetic compounds, each displaying distinct biological behaviours, lies the foundational structure of 2-quinolinone. Compounds with this structural motif exhibit a broad range of effects in different tissues. Furthermore, specific members showcase therapeutic potential for various disorders. Despite the significance of these compounds, the current review literature has not provided a comprehensive overview, underscoring the essential contribution of this article in exploring their biological functions. This study examines the biological activity of selected 2-quinolinone alkaloids across diverse organisms, unveiling their potential as a source of innovative bioactive natural products.

Abu-Hashem AA, Hakami O, Amri N. Synthesis, anticancer activity and molecular docking of new quinolines, quinazolines and 1,2,4-triazoles with pyrido[2,3- d] pyrimidines. Heliyon 2024; 10:e26735. [PMID: 38468950 PMCID: PMC10925991 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e26735] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/19/2023] [Revised: 02/18/2024] [Accepted: 02/19/2024] [Indexed: 03/13/2024] Open
Abstract
Recently, heterocyclic compounds such as pyrido [2,3-d] pyrimidinones, 1,2,4-triazolopyrimidines, pyrimidoquinazolines, and quinoline derivatives have gained attention from researchers due to their pharmacological and biological activities. To synthesize new compounds, quinoline-2-thioxopyrido [2,3-d] pyrimidinone (1) and methylthioquinoline-pyrido [2,3-d] pyrimidinones (2) were used as starting materials. The new compounds synthesized were quinoline-pyrido [2,3-d] (DeGoey et al., 2013; Gouda et al., 2020; Dangolani et al., 2018) [1, 2,4]triazolopyrimidinones (5a-d), 2-methylsulfonyl-quinoline-pyrido [2,3-d]pyrimidinone (6), pyrido [2,3-d]pyrimidine derivatives, pyridopyrimido (Gouda et al., 2020; DeGoey et al., 2013) 2,12,1-b] quinazoline (9), pyrido [(Khajouei et al., 2021; Gouda et al., 2020) 3,23,2-e]bis (1,2,4-triazole)pyrimidine (12a,b) and pyridopyrimido-diquinazoline-dione (16) derivatives. These compounds were synthesized with high efficiency, producing yields ranging from 69% to 90%, under moderate conditions, through treating (2) or (10) with various reagents such as anthranilic acid, phosphorus oxychloride, hydrazine hydrate, formic acid, glacial acetic acid, arylamine (aniline, 4-chloroaniline, or 4-methoxyaniline), and sec-amine (piperazine or morpholine). The new structures of the synthesized compounds were verified using various spectroscopic procedures, such as IR, NMR, and mass spectra. Molecular docking studies were carried out to investigate and discuss how the prepared compounds bind to amino acids such as Estrogen Receptor alpha, EGFR, and NADPH oxidase protein. Also, the synthesized products were tested for their anticancer and antioxidant activities against the (MCF-7) breast carcinoma cell line and human normal Retina pigmented epithelium cells (RPE-1). The study on the structure-activity relationship (SAR) established a correlation between the chemical structure of the newly synthesized compounds and their anticancer activity. The findings suggest that compounds 5a-d, 9,12a-b, and 16 exhibited promising anticancer activity and antioxidant effects as measured by DPPH inhibition.

Abstract
AbstractThe pyrido[2,3‐d]pyrimidine moieties are one of the most biologically widespread heterocyclic compounds as antimicrobial, antioxidant, antitubercular, antiviral and anti‐inflammatory. Hence, we synthesized an efficient new series of 2‐thioxo‐pyrido[2,3‐d]pyrimidinone, 2‐hydrazinyl‐(quinolin‐2‐yl)pyrido[2,3‐d]pyrimidinone,N′‐(quinolin‐2‐yl)‐pyrido[2,3‐d]pyrimidine‐(formo/aceto)‐hydrazide and substituted‐(quinolin‐2‐yl)pyrido[2,3‐d][1,2,4]triazolo[4,3‐a]pyrimidinone derivatives. The characterization of new compounds was corresponded by using spectroscopic techniques, IR, NMR and Mass spectra. In vitro, all compounds were evaluated as antimicrobial activity compared with cefotaxime sodium and nystatin as the standard drug. This work deals with the exploration of the new heterocyclic compounds and medicinal diversity of quinoline‐pyrido[2,3‐d][1,2,4]triazolo[4,3‐a]pyrimidine derivatives that might pave the way for long in the discovery of therapeutic medicine for future drug design.

Inflamm Res 2022; 71:741-758. [PMID: 35612604 DOI: 10.1007/s00011-022-01584-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 34] [Impact Index Per Article: 17.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/08/2021] [Revised: 03/21/2022] [Accepted: 05/05/2022] [Indexed: 11/28/2022] Open
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Several experimental models have been designed to promote the development of new anti-inflammatory drugs. The in vitro model using RAW 264.7 cells has been widely used. However, there is still no consensus on which inflammatory mediators should initially be measured to screen for possible anti-inflammatory effects. To determine the rationality of measuring inflammatory mediators together with NO, such as the levels of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, and interleukins (IL) 1β and 6, we carried out this systematic review (SR) and meta-analysis (MA). METHODOLOGY We conducted this SR and MA in accordance with the Preferred Reporting of Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis and the Cochrane Handbook for Systematic Reviews of Intervention. This review was registered in the Open Science Framework ( https://doi.org/10.17605/OSF.IO/8C3HT ). RESULTS LPS-induced cells produced high NO levels compared to non-LPS induced, and this production was not related to cell density. TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6, also showed high levels after cells had been stimulated with LPS. Though with some restrictions, all studies were reliable, as the risk of bias was detected in the test compounds and systems. CONCLUSION Measurement of NO levels may be sufficient to screen for possible anti-inflammatory action in the context of LPS-induced RAW 264.7 cells.

Abstract
Quinoline and imidazole derivatives have been playing a significant role in functional bioactivities and were potentially used as antibacterial, antifungal, anticancer, and anti-inflammatory drugs. Owing to the limitation of drug resistance, herein we synthesized thio-, chloro-, and hydroxyl-functionalized various imidazoquinolines by molecular hybridization approach. All the imidazoquinoline derivatives were examined for their antibacterial activity against selected bacterial pathogens by the agar well diffusion method. In addition, the anti-oxidant efficacy of imidazoquinolines was also tested using ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP). Among them, electron-withdrawing (-Cl) substituent containing imidazoquinoline 5f showed higher antibacterial and anti-oxidant activities than other imidazoquinolines and reached the effectiveness of the standard. In addition, compounds 4f, 5e, and 3f showed moderate antibacterial activity and other derivatives displayed weak activity against various pathogens. Molecular docking studies were also performed on selected imidazoquinoline derivatives (3f, 4f, and 5f), which showed high docking score and strong binding energy values. These results revealed that thio-imidazoquinoline could assist as a prototype for the designing of multidrug-resistant antibiotics against various microbial organisms.

Abstract
A simple and efficient ligand-free Cu-catalyzed protocol for the synthesis of polysubstituted quinolines via oxidative cyclization of oxime acetates with 2-aminobenzyl alcohols at room temperature has been developed. The presented approach provides a new synthetic pathway leading to polysubstituted quinolines with good functional group tolerance under mild conditions. Moreover, this transformation can be applied for the preparation of quinolines on a gram scale. Oxime acetates serve as the internal oxidants in the reactions, thus making this method very attractive.

Abstract
The present study was aimed to investigate the anticancer and anti-inflammatory activities of Terminalia chebula fruit (TCME). The TCME was evaluated for in vitro anticancer activity on A549 and MCF-7 cells. TCME showed cytotoxicity toward A549 (IC50 - 359.06 ± 20.04 µg/ml), and MCF-7 (IC50 - 61.02 ± 5.55 µg/ml) cells. The flow-cytometer analysis revealed increase in sub G1 population and apoptotic population, which were observed through cell cycle analysis and annexin-V-FLUOS staining. Confocal microscopy showed DNA fragmentation in both the cell lines upon TCME treatment. Moreover, TCME treatment induces activation of apoptosis-related caspase-cascade pathways in both the cell lines. TCME treatment on RAW 264.7 cells revealed the anti-inflammatory properties by regulating nitrite and TNF-α production; iNOS, COX-2 levels, and translocation of NF-κB protein. Finally, HPLC analysis revealed the bioactive phytocompounds present in TCME. In conclusion, the combined results showed the potent anticancer and anti-inflammatory properties of T. chebula fruit. PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS: Lung cancer is a leading cause of death in men with 35.5% incidences and 30.8% mortality rate worldwide. On the contrary, breast cancer possesses 55.2% incidences and 16.6% mortality rate among the female worldwide. The present findings revealed the anti-lung and -breast cancer activity along with the potent anti-inflammatory potentials of Terminalia chebula fruit. These findings will helpful to isolate the active drug molecules from the Terminalia chebula fruit and mark them as an anticancer and anti-inflammatory agent.

Abstract
Spondias pinnata (Linn. f.) Kurz (Anacardiaceae) is widely distributed in tropical Asia, where it is commonly used as a vegetable and fruit, and is attracting increasing research attention. In this study, we investigated the chemical composition and the cytotoxic, antimicrobial, and anti-inflammatory activities of the fruit peel essential oil of S. pinnata (EOSP), which has been consumed as a medicine and condiment in Xishuangbanna, southwest China. A total of 40 components were identified by Gas Chromatography/Mass spectrometry (GC-MS), representing 95.19% of the EOSP, with furfural (17.14%), α-terpineol (13.09%), and ethyl benzoate (9.05%) as the main constituents. EOSP has moderate cytotoxic activity against five cancer cells and obvious antimicrobial activity against five pathogenic strains. In particular, EOSP (Minimal Inhibitory and Fungicidal Concentration, MIC and MFC, 16‒32 µg/mL) showed a 32-times higher inhibition effect against Aspergillus fumigatus than the positive control Tigecycline (MIC and MBC 512‒1024 µg/mL). EOSP also showed strong anti-inflammatory activity by significantly inhibiting nitric oxide (NO) production induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in RAW 264.7 cell lines at 0.08‰, with no effect on cell viability. These bioactivities of S. pinnata fruit peel validate its traditional uses and suggest that it could be a new source of natural antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory agents for food or medical industries.
