Pharmacokinetic Profile Evaluation of Novel Combretastatin Derivative, LASSBio-1920, as a Promising Colorectal Anticancer Agent. Pharmaceutics 2023; 15:pharmaceutics15041282. [PMID: 37111767 PMCID: PMC10144566 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics15041282] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/07/2023] [Revised: 03/30/2023] [Accepted: 04/14/2023] [Indexed: 04/29/2023] Open
Abstract
LASSBio-1920 was synthesized due to the poor solubility of its natural precursor, combretastatin A4 (CA4). The cytotoxic potential of the compound against human colorectal cancer cells (HCT-116) and non-small cell lung cancer cells (PC-9) was evaluated, yielding IC50 values of 0.06 and 0.07 μM, respectively. Its mechanism of action was analyzed by microscopy and flow cytometry, where LASSBio-1920 was found to induce apoptosis. Molecular docking simulations and the enzymatic inhibition study with wild-type (wt) EGFR indicated enzyme-substrate interactions similar to other tyrosine kinase inhibitors. We suggest that LASSBio-1920 is metabolized by O-demethylation and NADPH generation. LASSBio-1920 demonstrated excellent absorption in the gastrointestinal tract and high central nervous system (CNS) permeability. The pharmacokinetic parameters obtained by predictions indicated that the compound presents zero-order kinetics and, in a human module simulation, accumulates in the liver, heart, gut, and spleen. The pharmacokinetic parameters obtained will serve as the basis to initiate in vivo studies regarding LASSBio-1920's antitumor potential.

Abstract
The Quorum-sensing system in Pseudomonas aeruginosa is responsible for the pathogenicity and the production of virulence factors and biofilm formation. Dihydropyrrolones were previously found to act as inhibitors of QS-dependent bacterial phenotypes. In this study, a range of dihydropyrrolone (DHP) analogues was synthesized via the lactone-lactam conversion of lactone intermediates followed by the formation of novel acetylene analogues of dihydropyrrolones from brominated dihydropyrrolones via Sonogashira coupling reactions in moderate to high yields. Upon biological testing, the most potent compounds, 39–40 and 44, showed higher bacterial quorum-sensing inhibitory (QSI) activity against P. aeruginosa reporter strain at 62.5 µM. Structure–activity relationship studies revealed that di-alkynyl substituent at the exocyclic position of DHPs possessed higher QSI activities than those of mono-alkynyl DHPs. Moreover, a hexyl-substituent at C3 of DHPs was beneficial to QSI activity while a phenyl substituent at C4 of DHPs was detrimental to QSI activity of analogues.

Abstract
Dehydrogenative transformations of alkyl chains to alkenes through methylene carbon-hydrogen (C–H) activation remain a substantial challenge. We report two classes of pyridine-pyridone ligands that enable divergent dehydrogenation reactions through palladium-catalyzed β-methylene C–H activation of carboxylic acids, leading to the direct syntheses of α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acids or γ-alkylidene butenolides. The directed nature of this pair of reactions allows chemoselective dehydrogenation of carboxylic acids in the presence of other enolizable functionalities such as ketones, providing chemoselectivity that is not possible by means of existing carbonyl desaturation protocols. Product inhibition is overcome through ligand-promoted preferential activation of C(sp3)–H bonds rather than C(sp2)–H bonds or a sequence of dehydrogenation and vinyl C–H alkynylation. The dehydrogenation reaction is compatible with molecular oxygen as the terminal oxidant.

Abstract
γ-Butenolides are fundamental frameworks found in many naturally occurring compounds, and they exhibit tremendous biological activities. γ-Butenolides also have proven their potential as useful synthetic intermediates in the total synthesis of natural compounds. Over the years, many γ-butenolide natural products have been isolated, having exocyclic γ-δ unsaturation in their structure. These natural products are collectively referred to as γ-alkylidenebutenolides. Considering the different biological profiles and wide-ranging structural diversity of the optically active γ-butenolide, the development of synthetic strategies for assembling such challenging scaffolds has attracted significant attention from synthetic chemists in recent times. In this report, a brief discussion will be provided to address isolation, biogenesis, and current state-of-the-art synthetic protocols for such molecules. This report aims to focus on synthetic strategies for γ-butenolides from 2010-2020 with a particular emphasis on γ-alkylidenebutenolides and related molecules. Metal-mediated catalytic transformation and organocatalysis are the two main reaction types that have been widely used to access such molecules. Mechanistic considerations, enantioselective synthesis, and practical applications of the reported procedures are also taken into consideration.

Abstract
Ginkgolides are the most important components of Ginkgo biloba extracts, whose lactone can be hydrolyzed in the aqueous environment. Although the hydrolyzed products have complex structures and their functions are not well-understood, opening the lactone ring is an important strategy in producing novel derivatives of ginkgolide. The preparation of a single pure aminolyzed ginkgolide for the study of its bioactivity and understanding of the process of aminolysis are challenging. To obtain stable aminolyzed products, four amide derivatives (2-5) of ginkgolide B (GB, 1) were prepared via the ring-opening reaction of its lactone with propylamine. These products were purified and fully identified by high-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and were further evaluated for their ability to inhibit the PAF-induced platelet aggregation of rabbit platelets in vitro. Compound 2, which was obtained by selective aminolysis of the lactone ring C of GB, showed a much better inhibitory activity of platelet aggregation (IC50, 15 nM) than the parent compound GB (IC50, 442 nM). The other three products (3-5), which were obtained by the aminolysis of lactone rings C and F of GB, did not show platelet aggregation inhibitory activity. The results greatly extended our understanding of the chemistry of GB and provided important structural information for the exploration and development of new drugs based on ginkgolides in G. biloba.

Abstract
The synthesis of new cadiolide analogues was carried out using a one-pot multi component synthesis. The antibacterial activity of these molecules was evaluated on standard and antibiotic resistant bacterial strains chosen for their involvement in human health or in food-born poisoning. Four molecules have shown good activities with MICs of 2 μg/mL-1. The introduction of an indole group or the conversion of the lactone into lactam have highlighted two new families of molecules with promising antibacterial activity. In addition, most of these active molecules are devoid of cytotoxic activity against keratinocyte cells.

Abstract
The principle of vinylogy states that the electronic effects of a functional group in a molecule are possibly transmitted to a distal position through interposed conjugated multiple bonds. As an emblematic case, the nucleophilic character of a π-extended enolate-type chain system may be relayed from the legitimate α-site to the vinylogous γ, ε, ..., ω remote carbon sites along the chain, provided that suitable HOMO-raising strategies are adopted to transform the unsaturated pronucleophilic precursors into the reactive polyenolate species. On the other hand, when "unnatural" carbonyl ipso-sites are activated as nucleophiles (umpolung), vinylogation extends the nucleophilic character to "unnatural" β, δ, ... remote sites. Merging the principle of vinylogy with activation modalities and concepts such as iminium ion/enamine organocatalysis, NHC-organocatalysis, cooperative organo/metal catalysis, bifunctional organocatalysis, dicyanoalkylidene activation, and organocascade reactions represents an impressive step forward for all vinylogous transformations. This review article celebrates this evolutionary progress, by collecting, comparing, and critically describing the achievements made over the nine year period 2010-2018, in the generation of vinylogous enolate-type donor substrates and their use in chemical synthesis.

Abstract
Considering oral diseases, antibiofilm compounds can decrease the accumulation of pathogenic species such as Streptococcus mutans at micro-areas of teeth, dental restorations or implant-supported prostheses. OBJECTIVE To assess the effect of thirteen different novel lactam-based compounds on the inhibition of S. mutans biofilm formation. MATERIAL AND METHODS We synthesized compounds based on γ-lactones analogues from rubrolides by a mucochloric acid process and converted them into their corresponding γ-hydroxy-γ-lactams by a reaction with isobutylamine and propylamine. Compounds concentrations ranging from 0.17 up to 87.5 μg mL-1 were tested against S. mutans. We diluted the exponential cultures in TSB and incubated them (37°C) in the presence of different γ-lactones or γ-lactams dilutions. Afterwards, we measured the planktonic growth by optical density at 630 nm and therefore assessed the biofilm density by the crystal violet staining method. RESULTS Twelve compounds were active against biofilm formation, showing no effect on bacterial viability. Only one compound was inactive against both planktonic and biofilm growth. The highest biofilm inhibition (inhibition rate above 60%) was obtained for two compounds while three other compounds revealed an inhibition rate above 40%. CONCLUSIONS Twelve of the thirteen compounds revealed effective inhibition of S. mutans biofilm formation, with eight of them showing a specific antibiofilm effect.

Abstract
Leishmaniasis is a neglected tropical disease (NTDs), endemic in 88 countries that affect more than 12 million people. Current drugs are limited due to their toxicity, development of biological resistance, length of treatment and high cost. Thus, the search for new effective and less toxic treatments is an urgent need. In this study, we report the synthesis of 3 new amide derivatives of hederagenin (22-24) with yields between 70% and 90%, along with 57 other derivatives of hederagenin (1-21, 25-60) carrying different groups at C-28 previously reported by our group, and the results of their in vitro ability to inhibit the growth of Leishmania infantum. Some derivatives (3, 4, 44, 49 and 52), showed activity at micromolar level and low toxicity against BGM and HepG2 cells. Moreover, the ability of hederagenin derivatives 3 (IC50 = 9.7 μM), 4 (12 μM), 44 (11 μM) and 49 (2 μM), to prevent proliferation of intracellular amastigote forms of L. infantum and their higher selectivity index and low toxicity compared to commercial positive drug control of choice (potassium antimonyl tartrate trihydrate) (IC50 = 80 μM, SI = 0.1), make these compounds promising candidates for the treatment of leishmaniasis.
