Wang T, Lei Q, Tao K, Liu S, Yao X, Zhu Q. Fluorescent octahydrophenazines as novel inhibitors against herpes simplex viruses. Eur J Med Chem 2024; 275:116580. [PMID: 38896994 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejmech.2024.116580] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/03/2024] [Revised: 06/06/2024] [Accepted: 06/06/2024] [Indexed: 06/21/2024]
Abstract
A new series of racemic fluorescent octahydrophenazines (rac-PZ1-11) have been designed and synthesized via the efficient nucleophilic aromatic substitution (SNAr) of tetrafluorobenzenedinitriles (1a-c) and racemic cyclohexane-1,2-diamines (rac-2a and b). The bioactivities of these racemic rac-PZs (20 μM) against herpes simplex virus type-1 (HSV-1) were evaluated by the relative cell viability of Vero cells infected with HSV-1. It was found that rac-PZ3 shows much higher anti-HSV-1 activity than others, with EC50 = 9.2 ± 1.4 μM. Further investigation into the anti-HSV activities of rac-PZ3 and its enantiomers RR- and SS-PZ3 indicates that rac-PZ3 can also efficiently inhibit HSV-2 and even ACV-resistant HSV-2 (EC50 = 11.0 ± 2.3 and 14.9 ± 2.8 μM, respectively), SS-PZ3 has better activities against HSV-1, HSV-2 and ACV-resistant HSV-2 (EC50 = 4.1 ± 1.1, 5.8 ± 1.0 and 7.9 ± 1.2 μM, respectively), but RR-PZ3 has almost no antiviral activities. The primary mechanism study indicates that rac-PZ3 efficiently reverses the HSV-1/2-induced cytopathic effect and suppresses the expression of viral mRNA and proteins. In addition, rac-, RR- and SS-PZ3 possess excellent fluorescence properties with almost the same emission wavelength and high fluorescence quantum yields (ΦF = 90.3-92.3 % in cyclohexane solutions and 54.4-57.3 % in solids) and can target endoplasmic reticulum and cell membrane. The efficient anti-HSV bioactivities and excellent fluorescence of PZ3 prove its potential applications in antiviral therapy and biological imaging.

Abstract
Nineteen TH03 analogues were designed and synthesized as tubulin colchicine-binding site inhibitors with potent antiproliferative activities. Among these compounds, 3,5-dimethoxyphenylpyridines 8j bearing a 4-methoxybenzyl aniline side-chain displayed the best antiproliferative activities against glioma (U87MG and U251). In addition, the trimethoxyphenylpyridine 8o bearing a 4-methyl-N-methyl aniline side-chain showed the best antiproliferative activities against colon carcinoma and lung cancer with the lowest IC50 value (0.09 µM < IC50 < 0.86 µM). Compared with CA-4, Compounds 8j and 8o displayed lower cytotoxicities toward normal cells but higher antiproliferative activities against RKO (IC50 = 0.15 µM and 0.09 µM respectively), NCI-H1299 (IC50 = 0.73 µM and 0.14 µM respectively), and A549 cells (IC50 = 0.86 µM and 0.37 µM respectively). Further investigations revealed that 8o shows higher tubulin polymerization inhibitory activity (IC50 = 3.1 ± 0.5 µM) than colchicine (IC50 = 8.6 ± 0.2 µM), and induced cell cycle arrest at the G2/M phase and cellular apoptosis through disrupting the microtubule network.

Abstract
A study on the reactivity of 3-amino α,β-unsaturated γ-lactam derivatives obtained from a multicomponent reaction is presented. Key features of the substrates are the presence of an endocyclic α,β-unsaturated amide moiety and an enamine functionality. Following different synthetic protocols, the functionalization at three different positions of the lactam core is achieved. In the presence of a soft base, under thermodynamic conditions, the functionalization at C-4 takes place where the substrates behave as enamines, while the use of a strong base, under kinetic conditions, leads to the formation of C-5-functionalized γ-lactams, in the presence of ethyl glyoxalate, through a highly diastereoselective vinylogous aldol reaction. Moreover, the nucleophilic addition of organometallic species allows the functionalization at C-3, through the imine tautomer, affording γ-lactams bearing tetrasubstituted stereocenters, where the substrates act as imine electrophiles. Taking into account the advantage of the presence of a chiral stereocenter in C-5 substituted γ-lactams, further diastereoselective transformations are also explored, leading to novel bicyclic substrates holding a fused γ and δ-lactam skeleton. Remarkably, an example of a highly stereoselective formal [3+3] cycloaddition reaction of chiral γ-lactam substrates is reported for the synthesis of 1,4-dihidropyridines, where a non-covalent attractive interaction of a carbonyl group with an electron-deficient arene seems to drive the stereoselectivity of the reaction to the exclusive formation of the cis isomer. In order to unambiguously determine the substitution pattern resulting from the diverse reactions, an extensive characterization of the substrates is detailed through 2D NMR and/or X-ray experiments. Likewise, applications of the substrates as antiproliferative agents against lung and ovarian cancer cells are also described.

Abstract
We report efficient synthetic methodologies for the preparation of 3-amino and 3-hydroxy 3-pyrrolin-2-ones (unsaturated γ-lactams) through a multicomponent reaction of amines, aldehydes and acetylene or pyruvate derivatives. The densely substituted γ-lactam substrates show in vitro cytotoxicity, inhibiting the growth of the carcinoma human tumor cell lines RKO (human colon epithelial carcinoma), SKOV3 (human ovarian carcinoma) and A549 (carcinomic human alveolar basal epithelial cell). In view of the possibilities for the diversity of the substituents that offer a multicomponent, synthetic methodology, an extensive structure–activity profile is presented. In addition, the bioisosteric replacement of the flat ester group by a tetrahedral phosphonate or phosphine oxide moiety in γ-lactam substrates leads to increased growth inhibition activity. Cell morphology analysis and flow cytometry assays indicate that the main pathway by which our compounds induce cytotoxicity is based on the activation of the intracellular apoptotic mechanism.

Abstract
A series of pyrazolone compounds with different substitution patterns have been synthesized using microwave-assisted methods and evaluated their in vitro antiproliferative activity against human lung adenocarcinoma cell lines (A549 and NCI-H522). Among the tested compounds, the pyrazolone P7 exhibited high antiproliferative activity against both A549 and NCIH522 cancer cell lines while being 10 times less cytotoxic to non-cancerous cells. Moreover, our compounds P7 and P11 exhibited higher antiproliferative activity and selectivity against A549 and NCIH522 cells compared with the clinically approved drugs Afatinib and Gefitinib. The cell cycle analysis showed that the compound P7 and P11 arrests the cell cycle at G0/G1 phase, whereas the compounds P13 and P14 involved in G2/M phase arrest. The results from antiproliferative activity screening, cell cycle analysis, and kinase profiling indicate that the suitably substituted 1,3-diarylpyrazolones exhibit high antiproliferative activity against non-small cell lung cancer cells.

Abstract
More effective prophylactic and therapeutic strategies to combat influenza viruses are urgently required worldwide because the conventional anti-influenza drugs are facing drug resistance. Here, dihydropyrrolidones (DHPs), the products of an efficient multi-components reaction, were found to possess good activities against influenza A virus (IAV). Primary structure-activity relationship indicated that the activities of DHPs were greatly influenced by substituents and four of them had IC50 values lower than 10 μM (DHPs 5-2, 8, 14 and 19: IC50 = 3.11-9.23 μM). The activities against multiple IAV strains and mechanism of DHPs were further investigated by using 5-2 (IC50 = 3.11 μM). It was found that 5-2 possessed antiviral effects against all the investigated subtypes of IAVs with the IC50 values from 3.11 to 7.13 μM. Moreover, 5-2 showed very low cytotoxicity with CC50 > 400 μM. Results of mechanism study indicated that 5-2 could efficiently inhibit replication of IAV, up-regulate the expression of key antiviral cytokines IFN-β and antiviral protein MxA, and suppress the production of the NDAPH oxidase NOX1 in MDCK cells. These results indicated that 5-2 could be used as a potential inhibitor against wide subtypes of IAVs.
