Abstract
Cancer is a leading cause of human death, and there is a need to identify efficient and novel chemical scaffolds which could provide flexibility to cancer chemotherapeutics. This work introduces S-aryl dithiocarbamates belonging to a versatile group of organo-sulfur containing compounds as a hitherto unexplored class of effective anticancer drugs with promising pharmacophore properties. We synthesized a series of N-Boc piperazine containing S-aryl dithiocarbamates and identified compound 1 as a potent antiproliferative agent in lung, cervical, and breast cancer cell lines. Compound 1 exhibited best inhibitory activity against cervical cancer cells, HeLa with an IC50 of 0.432 ± 0.138 μM for 72 h, and lung cancer cells, A549 with an IC50 of 0.447 ± 0.051 μM for 72 h. We further demonstrate that HeLa cells treated with this compound result in G2/M phase cell cycle arrest, causing cell apoptosis due to the upregulation of the p53-p21 signaling pathway. Importantly, cells treated with compound 1 showed a novel tubulin bundling phenotype in fluorescence microscopy, which is a characteristic of microtubule-stabilizing anticancer drugs like paclitaxel. Interestingly, molecular docking analysis revealed reasonable binding of compound 1 in the taxol-binding pocket of β-tubulin, making it a promising candidate for microtubule stabilization based anticancer drug discovery.

Abstract
Genus Tabebuia is famous for its traditional uses and valuable phytoconstituents. Our previous investigation of Tabebuia species noted the promising anticancer activity of T. guayacan Hemsl. leaves extract, however, the mechanism underlying the observed anticancer activity is still unexplored. The current research was designed to explore the phytochemical content as well as to address the phytoconstituent(s) responsible for the recorded anticancer activity. Accordingly, sixteen compounds were isolated, and their structures were elucidated using different spectroscopic techniques. The drug-likeness of the isolated compounds, as well as their binding affinity with four anticancer drug target receptors: CDK-2/6, topoisomerase-1, and VEGFR-2, were evaluated. Additionally, the most promising compounds were in vitro evaluated for inhibitory activities against CDK-2/6 and VEGFR-2 enzymes using kinase assays method. Corosolic acid (3) and luteolin-7-O-β-glucoside (16) were the most active inhibitors against CDK-2 (−13.44 kcal/mol) and topoisomerase 1 (−13.83 kcal/mol), respectively. Meanwhile, quercetin 3-O-β-xyloside (10) scored the highest binding free energies against both CDK-6 (−16.23 kcal/mol) as well as against VEGFR-2 protein targets (−10.39 kcal/mol). Molecular dynamic simulation indicated that quercetin 3-O-β-xyloside (10) exhibited the least fluctuations and deviations from the starting binding pose with RMSD (2.6 Å). Interestingly, in vitro testing results confirmed the potent activity of 10 (IC50 = 0.154 µg/mL) compared to IC50 = 0.159 µg/mL of the reference drug ribociclib. These findings suggest the three noted compounds (3, 10, and 16) for further in vivo anticancer studies.

Abstract
The synthesis, characterization, antioxidant activity and β-LG interaction of two Zn(II) complexes formulated as [(N-N)Zn(µ-pr-dtc)Zn(N-N)](NO3)2] (where pr-dtc is propylenbisdithiocarbamate, N-N are 2,2'-bipyridine for complex a, and 1,10 phenanthroline for complex b) were reported. The in vitro antioxidant activity of the Zn complexes was evaluated against 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl radicals (DPPH). Both complexes presented moderate antioxidant activity (IC50 = 231.0 ± 5.7 mg L-1 for complex a and 250.0 ± 6.1 mg L-1 for complex b). Fluorescence studies showed that the intrinsic fluorescence of β-LG was statically quenched by the prepared complexes mainly through Van der Waals interaction and hydrogen bond. The fluorescence results showed that the above complexes could bind with β-LG with a relatively strong affinity (complex a: Kb(27 °C) = 0.16 × 104 M-1, Kb(37 °C) = 0.06 × 104 M-1, complex b: Kb(27 °C) = 1.94 × 104 M-1, Kb(37 °C) = 0.11 × 104 M-1). The secondary structure of β-LG was changed in the presence of these Zn complexes and the decrease in α-helix (0.41% and 0.55% for complex a and complex b, respectively) and β-sheet (1.19% and 1.44% for complex a and complex b, respectively) contents confirmed the protein instability during the interaction. Molecular dynamics simulation was used during the preparation of the protein receptor before docking to find the best fit of the complexes to β-LG. Some details about molecular docking simulations describe Van der Waals interactions and hydrogen bonding, and this is in agreement with the thermodynamics data derived from fluorescence spectroscopy experiment.Communicated by Ramaswamy H.

Abstract
A series of steroidal thiazolidinone derivatives have been synthesized through one-pot multicomponent reaction involving steroidal ketone, thiosemicarbazide/methyl-thiosemicarbazide and DMAD in presence of AlCl3 as a Lewis acid catalyst. Among all the synthesized steroidal thiazolidinone derivatives, compound 7-9 (ST 7-9) were investigated for their in vitro molecular interaction with human serum albumin. Intrinsic fluorescence spectroscopy, constant wavelength synchronous fluorescence spectroscopy, circular dichroism and UV-visible absorption techniques have been exploited to characterize the binding phenomena in phosphate buffer solution at pH 7.4. The experimental results indicated that ST 7-9 bind to HSA and the intrinsic fluorescence of HSA was quenched through static quenching mechanism. The binding parameters were calculated and the binding constants obtained were 1.44 × 105 M-1 for ST 7, 0.84 × 105 M-1 for ST 8 and 1.06 × 105 M-1 for ST 9. Circular dichroism analysis confirms that the presence of ST 7-9, altered the secondary structure of HSA due to partial unfolding of the polypeptide chain. Furthermore, hemolytic activity assay demonstrated that the synthesized steroidal thiazolidinone derivatives have good compatibility towards human red blood cells. Finally, molecular docking studies revealed that the steroidal thiazolidinones can bind in the hydrophobic cavity of HSA, by hydrophobic and hydrogen bonding interaction. These results provided valuable information about the binding mechanism of ST 7-9 with HSA and play a pivotal role in the development of steroidal heterocycle inspired compounds.

Abstract
Ligand binding studies on carrier proteins are crucial in determining the pharmacological properties of drug candidates. Here, a new palladium(II) complex was synthesized and characterized. The in vitro binding studies of this complex with two carrier proteins, human serum albumin (HSA), and β-lactoglobulin (βLG) were investigated by employing biophysical techniques as well as computational modeling. The experimental results showed that the Pd(II) complex interacted with two carrier proteins with moderate binding affinity (Kb ≈ .5 × 104 M-1 for HSA and .2 × 103 M-1 for βLG). Binding of Pd(II) complex to HSA and βLG caused strong fluorescence quenching of both proteins through static quenching mechanism. In two studied systems hydrogen bonds and van der Waals forces were the major stabilizing forces in the drug-protein complex formation. UV-Visible and FT-IR measurements indicated that the binding of above complex to HSA and βLG may induce conformational and micro-environmental changes of two proteins. Protein-ligand docking analysis confirmed that the Pd(II) complex binds to residues located in the subdomain IIA of HSA and site A of βLG. All these experimental and computational results suggest that βLG and HSA might act as carrier protein for Pd(II) complex to deliver it to the target molecules.

Abstract
Hyaluronic acid (HA) has inherent ability to target the CD44 receptors and internalize into tumour cells via receptor-mediated endocytosis. Therefore, conjugation of this natural linear polysaccharide to polymeric NPs or micelles, as one of the most promising approaches, could be useful for future clinical applications such as drug delivery. Accordingly, we report on the synthesis of mitoxantrone (MTX)-conjugated polymeric nanoparticles (NPs) composed of polyethylene glycol-HA (PEG-HA) for MTX delivery toward special tumour cells. To determine the size of the polymeric NPs, field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) and particle size analyzer system Zetasizer_nanoZS were employed. The in vitro cytotoxicity analysis of MTX-loaded HA-PEG NPs and free MTX against two cell lines with different levels of CD44 expression (MDA-MB-231 (very high) and MCF-7 (low) was conducted by MTT assay. Also, computational molecular docking was employed to study in detail the active site residues and the critical interactions between HA-EDA-PEG-EDA-MTX NPs and CD44 receptor. The particle size analysis and electron microscopy showed the average size of polymeric NPs less than 350 nm. FT-IR spectrophotometry analysis and also NMR confirmed the conjugation of HA and MTX onto the PEG. Cytotoxicity assay revealed that the engineered polymeric NPs were able to specifically bind to and significantly inhibit the CD44 receptor-positive MDA-MB-231 cells, but not the CD44-negative MCF-7 cells. Furthermore, analysis of the binding modes revealed that for the best-docked pose nearly 10 conventional hydrogen bond can occur between the MTX-EDA-PEG-EDA-HA NPs and amino acids of CD44 receptor. Based on these findings, we suggest the HA-PEG-MTX NPs as an effective functional-targeted nanomedicine toward therapy of CD44-positive cancers.
