Eur J Med Chem 2024; 268:116249. [PMID: 38458106 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejmech.2024.116249] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/15/2024] [Revised: 02/14/2024] [Accepted: 02/15/2024] [Indexed: 03/10/2024]
Abstract
Cancer encompasses a group of pathologies with common characteristics, high incidence, and prevalence in all countries. Although there are treatments available for this disease, they are not always effective or safe, often failing to achieve the desired results. This is why it is necessary to continue the search for new therapies. One of the strategies for obtaining new antitumor drugs is the use of 1,4-naphthoquinone as a scaffold in synthetic or natural products with antitumor activity. This review focuses on compiling studies related to the antitumor activity of 1,4-naphthoquinone and its natural and synthetic derivatives over the last 10 years. The work describes the main natural naphthoquinones with antitumor activity and classifies the synthetic naphthoquinones based on the structural modifications made to the scaffold. Additionally, the formation of metal complexes using naphthoquinones as a ligand is considered. After a thorough review, 197 synthetic compounds with potent biological activity against cancer have been classified according to their chemical structures and their mechanisms of action have been described.

Biotechnol Adv 2023; 68:108209. [PMID: 37467868 DOI: 10.1016/j.biotechadv.2023.108209] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/20/2023] [Revised: 06/05/2023] [Accepted: 07/01/2023] [Indexed: 07/21/2023]
Abstract
Glycoconjugates are the ubiquitous components of mammalian cells, mainly synthesized by covalent bonds of carbohydrates to other biomolecules such as proteins and lipids, with a wide range of potential applications in novel vaccines, therapeutic peptides and antibodies (Ab). Considering the emerging developments in glycoscience, renewable production of glycoconjugates is of importance and lignocellulosic biomass (LCB) is a potential source of carbohydrates to produce synthetic glycoconjugates in a sustainable pathway. In this review, recent advances in glycobiology aiming on glycoconjugates production is presented together with the recent and cutting-edge advances in the therapeutic properties and application of glycoconjugates, including therapeutic glycoproteins, glycosaminoglycans (GAGs), and nutraceuticals, emphasizing the integral role of glycosylation in their function and efficacy. Special emphasis is given towards the potential exploration of carbon neutral feedstocks, in which LCB has an emerging role. Techniques for extraction and recovery of mono- and oligosaccharides from LCB are critically discussed and influence of the heterogeneous nature of the feedstocks and different methods for recovery of these sugars in the development of the customized glycoconjugates is explored. Although reports on the use of LCB for the production of glycoconjugates are scarce, this review sets clear that the potential of LCB as a source for the production of valuable glycoconjugates cannot be underestimated and encourages that future research should focus on refining the existing methodologies and exploring new approaches to fully realize the potential of LCB in glycoconjugate production.

Abstract
Two different products were obtained by the regiodivergent reaction of benzoquinone derivatives with phenolates and anilines: 3-aryloxybenzoquinone and 2-phenylamino-3-bromobenzoquinone. Calculated density functional theory free energies of reaction values corroborate the experimental observation of the formation of the substitution product in the reaction with phenolates in acetonitrile and the product of addition/oxidation for the reaction with aniline in water. Calculated charges and Fukui functions are similar for C2 and C3 atoms, indicating an equal possibility to suffer a nucleophilic attack. The calculated energy barriers for nucleophilic attack steps indicated that the first steps of the substitution with phenolates and addition/oxidation with anilines are faster, which justifies the formation of the respective products. The natural bond order analysis for the transition states revealed that there is a strong interaction between lone pairs of N and O atoms and the πC2C3 * for the O → C2 and N → C3 attacks and a weak interaction for the O → C3 and N → C2 attacks, which also agrees with experimental observations.

1,4-Naphthoquinone (CNN1) Induces Apoptosis through DNA Damage and Promotes Upregulation of H2AFX in Leukemia Multidrug Resistant Cell Line. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms23158105.

Abstract
The multidrug resistance (MDR) phenotype is one of the major obstacles in the treatment of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) in advantage stages such as blast crisis. In this scenario, more patients develop resistance mechanisms during the course of the disease, making tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) target therapies ineffective. Therefore, the aim of the study was to examine the pharmacological role of CNN1, a para-naphthoquinone, in a leukemia multidrug resistant cell line. First, the in vitro cytotoxic activity of Imatinib Mesylate (IM) in K-562 and FEPS cell lines was evaluated. Subsequently, membrane integrity and mitochondrial membrane potential assays were performed to assess the cytotoxic effects of CNN1 in K-562 and FEPS cell lines, followed by cell cycle, alkaline comet assay and annexin V-Alexa Fluor® 488/propidium iodide assays (Annexin/PI) using flow cytometry. RT-qPCR was used to evaluate the H2AFX gene expression. The results demonstrate that CNN1 was able to induce apoptosis, cell membrane rupture and mitochondrial membrane depolarization in leukemia cell lines. In addition, CNN1 also induced genotoxic effects and caused DNA fragmentation, cell cycle arrest at the G2/M phase in leukemia cells. No genotoxicity was observed on peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC). Additionally, CNN1 increased mRNA levels of H2AFX. Therefore, CNN1 presented anticancer properties against leukemia multidrug resistant cell line being a potential anticancer agent for the treatment of resistant CML.

Abstract
The triazole heterocycle is a privileged scaffold in medicinal chemistry, since its structure is present in a large number of biologically active molecules, including several drugs currently in the market. Due to their vast applications, a wide variety of methods are described for their preparation, such as the 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition and processes involving diazo compounds and diazo transfer reactions. Considering the significant number of contributions from our research group to this chemistry in recent decades, in this account we discuss both the development of new methods for the synthesis of 1,2,3-triazoles and the preparation of new triazole-functionalized biologically active molecules using classical approaches.

Abstract
:Cancer, one of the most devastating degenerative diseases nowadays, is one of the main targets in Medicinal Chemistry and Pharmaceutical industry. Due to the significant increase in the incidence of cancer within world population, together with the complexity of such disease, featured with a multifactorial nature, access to new drugs targeting different biological targets connected to cancer is highly necessary.:Among the vast arsenal of compounds exhibiting antitumor activities, this review will cover the use of carbohydrate derivatives as privileged scaffolds. Their hydrophilic nature, together with their capacity of establishing selective interactions with biological receptors located on cell surface, involved in cell-to-cell communication processes, has allowed the development of an ample number of new templates useful in cancer treatment.:Their intrinsic water solubility has allowed their use as of pro-drug carriers for accessing more efficiently the pharmaceutical targets. The preparation of glycoconjugates in which the carbohydrate is tethered to a pharmacophore has also allowed a better permeation of the drug through cellular membranes, in which selective interactions with the carbohydrate motifs are involved. In this context, the design of multivalent structures (e.g. gold nanoparticles) has been demonstrated to enhance crucial interactions with biological receptors like lectins, glycoproteins that can be involved in cancer progression.:Moreover, the modification of the carbohydrate structural motif, by incorporation of metal complexes, or by replacing their endocyclic oxygen, or carbon atoms with heteroatoms has led to new antitumor agents.:Such diversity of sugar-based templates with relevant antitumor activity will be covered in this review.

Abstract
Background:
According to the World Health Organization, antimicrobial resistance is one of
the most important public health threats of the 21st century. Therefore, there is an urgent need for the
development of antimicrobial agents with new mechanism of action, especially those capable of evading
known resistance mechanisms.
Objective:
We described the synthesis, in vitro antimicrobial evaluation, and in silico analysis of a series
of 1H-indole-4,7-dione derivatives.
Methods:
The new series of 1H-indole-4,7-diones was prepared with good yield by using a copper(II)-
mediated reaction between bromoquinone and β-enamino ketones bearing alkyl or phenyl groups attached
to the nitrogen atom. The antimicrobial potential of indole derivatives was assessed. Molecular
docking studies were also performed using AutoDock 4.2 for Windows. Characterization of all compounds
was confirmed by one- and two-dimensional NMR techniques 1H and 13C NMR spectra [1H, 13C
– APT, 1H x 1H – COSY, HSQC and HMBC], IR and mass spectrometry analysis.
Results:
Several indolequinone compounds showed effective antimicrobial profile against Grampositive
(MIC = 16 µg.mL-1) and Gram-negative bacteria (MIC = 8 µg.mL-1) similar to antimicrobials
current on the market. The 3-acetyl-1-(2,5-dimethylphenyl)-1H-indole-4,7-dione derivative exhibited an
important effect against different biofilm stages formed by a serious hospital life-threatening resistant
strain of Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). A hemocompatibility profile analysis
based on in vitro hemolysis assays revealed the low toxicity effects of this new series. Indeed, in silico
studies showed a good pharmacokinetics and toxicological profiles for all indolequinone derivatives,
reinforcing their feasibility to display a promising oral bioavailability. An elucidation of the promising
indolequinone derivatives binding mode was achieved, showing interactions with important sites to biological
activity of S. aureus DNA gyrase. These results highlighted 3-acetyl-1-(2-hydroxyethyl)-1Hindole-
4,7-dione derivative as broad-spectrum antimicrobial prototype to be further explored for treating
bacterial infections.
Conclusion:
The highly substituted indolequinones were obtained in moderate to good yields. The
pharmacological study indicated that these compounds should be exploited in the search for a leading
substance in a project aimed at obtaining new antimicrobials effective against Gram-negative bacteria.

Abstract
Aim: Cancer has emerged as a growing public health problem in many parts of the world. Methodology: We describe the synthesis of a series of carbohydrate-based isoquinoline-5,8-diones through the 1,4-addition reaction between 5,8-dioxo-5,8-dihydroisoquinoline and aminocarbohydrates. Halogenated quinones were also synthesized. Their inhibitory effects on the proliferation of human cancer cell lines were studied. Results & conclusion: The most promising compound, derived from isoquinoline-5,8-dione, containing ribofuranosidyl ring, was selectively active in vitro against H1299 cancer cells, with 1.7-fold higher activity than that of vinorelbine tartrate. This result suggests that the glycoconjugate in question may constitute a valuable lead compound to design and synthesize a more active and less toxic derivative with respect to the development of a new antitumor substance.
