Napiórkowska M, Otto-Ślusarczyk D, Kurpios-Piec D, Stukan I, Gryzik M, Wojda U. BM7, a derivative of benzofuran, effectively fights cancer by promoting cancer cell apoptosis and impacting IL-6 levels. Eur J Pharmacol 2024; 978:176751. [PMID: 38897442 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejphar.2024.176751] [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: 02/07/2024] [Revised: 06/10/2024] [Accepted: 06/16/2024] [Indexed: 06/21/2024]
Abstract
The BM7 compound, a bromo derivative of methyl 6-acetyl-5-hydroxy-2-methyl-1-benzofuran-3-carboxylate, was previously identified as cytotoxic to human leukaemia cells (K562 and HL60) and human cervical cancer (HeLa), while showing no toxicity to non-cancerous primary endothelial cells (HUVEC). In this study, we present the first demonstration of BM7's anticancer efficacy in vivo using a mouse chronic myeloid leukaemia xenograft model. Administered intraperitoneally in a mixture of 10% Solutol HS 15/10% ethanol, BM7 exhibited no visible toxicity and significantly reduced tumor weight, comparable to standard drugs imatinib and hydroxyurea. Further supporting its anticancer potential, a multi-model in vitro study involving seven human cancer cell lines revealed the most promising responses in colon cancer (SW480, SW620, HCT116), liver cancer (HEPG2), and breast adenocarcinoma (MDA-MB-231) cells. BM7 demonstrated multifaceted anticancer mechanisms, inducing apoptosis while elevating reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels and suppressing interleukin-6 (IL-6) release in these cell lines. These findings position BM7 as a candidate of significant interest for cancer therapy. Its ability to not only induce apoptosis but also modulate cellular processes such as ROS levels and immune responses, specifically IL-6 suppression, makes BM7 a versatile and promising agent for further exploration in the realm of cancer treatment.

Abstract
Benzofuran moiety is the main component of many biologically active natural and synthetic heterocycles. These heterocycles have unique therapeutic potentials and are involved in various clinical drugs. The reported results confirmed the extraordinary inhibitory potency of such benzofurans against a panel of human cancer cell lines compared with a wide array of reference anticancer drugs. Several publications about the anticancer potencies of benzofuran-based heterocycles were encountered. The recent developments of anticancer activities of both natural and synthetic benzofuran scaffolds during 2019-2022 are thoroughly covered. Many of the described benzofurans are promising candidates for development as anticancer agents based on their outstanding inhibitory potency against a panel of human cancer cells compared with reference anticancer drugs. These findings encourage medicinal chemists to explore new areas to improve human health and reduce suffering.

Abstract
A new electrochemical selective annulative amino-ketalization and amino-oxygenation of 1,6-enynes with disulfonimides and alcohols is reported, producing a series of functionalized benzofurans under catalyst- and oxidant-free conditions. The annulative aminoketalization proceeds with simple short-chain alcohols such as methanol, ethanol and n-propanol as O-nucleophilic reagents, while the reaction occurs in the annulative aminooxygenation direction in the presence of water and large steric sec-butyl alcohol (SBA).

Abstract
Simple Summary Cancer is the leading cause of death worldwide and responsible for killing approximately 10 million people per year. Fused heterocyclic ring systems such as benzofuran have emerged as important scaffolds with many biological properties. Furthermore, derivatives of benzofurans demonstrate a wide range of biological and pharmacological activities, including anticancer properties. The main aim of this review is to highlight and discuss the contribution of benzofuran derivatives as anticancer agents by considering and discussing the chemical structure of 20 different compounds. Evaluating the chemical structure of these compounds will guide future medicinal chemists in designing new drugs for cancer therapy that might give excellent results in in vivo/in vitro applications. Abstract Benzofuran is a heterocyclic compound found naturally in plants and it can also be obtained through synthetic reactions. Multiple physicochemical characteristics and versatile features distinguish benzofuran, and its chemical structure is composed of fused benzene and furan rings. Benzofuran derivatives are essential compounds that hold vital biological activities to design novel therapies with enhanced efficacy compared to conventional treatments. Therefore, medicinal chemists used its core to synthesize new derivatives that can be applied to a variety of disorders. Benzofuran exhibited potential effectiveness in chronic diseases such as hypertension, neurodegenerative and oxidative conditions, and dyslipidemia. In acute infections, benzofuran revealed anti-infective properties against microorganisms like viruses, bacteria, and parasites. In recent years, the complex nature and the number of acquired or resistant cancer cases have been largely increasing. Benzofuran derivatives revealed potential anticancer activity with lower incidence or severity of adverse events normally encountered during chemotherapeutic treatments. This review discusses the structure–activity relationship (SAR) of several benzofuran derivatives in order to elucidate the possible substitution alternatives and structural requirements for a highly potent and selective anticancer activity.

Abstract
A series of novel 2-oxoquinoline derivatives containing arylaminothiazole were designed and synthesized as potential antitumor agents. The synthesized compounds were evaluated for their in vitro cytotoxicity activity against HeLa, NCI-H460, T24 and SKOV3 cancer cell lines using MTT assay. Among them, compound A7 exhibited the most potent activity against the test cancer cell lines, with the IC50 values ranged from 4.4 to 8.7 µM. The results of tubulin polymerization assay showed that compound A7 could inhibit tubulin polymerization in vitro. Meanwhile, molecular docking study revealed that A7 can bind to the colchicine site of tubulin and formed hydrogen bonds with key amino acid residues in the active site. Further mechanism study demonstrated that compound A7 blocked cell cycle arrest at G2/M phase, induced cell apoptosis and depolarized mitochondria of HeLa cells. Collectively, our findings suggest that A7 could serve as a promising lead for the development of more efficient microtubule polymerization inhibitors for cancer therapy.

Abstract
The continuous emergency of drug-resistant cancers and the low specificity of anticancer agents have been the major challenges in the control and treatment of cancer, making an urgent need to develop novel anticancer agents with high efficacy. Chalcones, precursors of flavonoids and isoflavonoids, exhibit structural heterogeneity and can act on various drug targets. Chalcones which demonstrated potential in vitro and in vivo activity against both drug-susceptible and drug-resistant cancers, are useful templates for the development of novel anticancer agents. Hybridization of chalcone moiety with other anticancer pharmacophores could provide the hybrids which have the potential to overcome drug resistance and improve the specificity, so it represents a promising strategy to develop novel anticancer agents. This review emphasizes the development, the mechanisms of action as well as structure-activity relationships of chalcone hybrids with potential therapeutic application for many cancers in recent 10 years.

Abstract
Background Ethnomedicinally, the family Polygonaceae is famous for the management of cancer. Various species of this family have been reported with anticancer potentials. This study was designed to isolate anticancer compounds from ethnomedicinally important species Polygonum barbatum. Methods The column chromatography was used for the isolation of compounds from the solvent fraction of P. barbatum. The characterization of isolated compounds was performed by various spectroscopic techniques like UV, IR, mass spectrometry and 1D-2D NMR spectroscopy. Keeping in view the ethnomedicinal importance of the family, genus and species of P. barbatum, the isolated compounds (1–3) were screened for anticancer potentials against oral cancer (CAL-27) and lungs cancer (NCI H460) cell lines using MTT assay. Active compound was further investigated for apoptosis by using morphological changes and flow cytometry analysis. In vivo anti-angiogenic study of the isolated compounds was also carried using chorioallantoic membrane assay. Docking studies were carried out to explore the mechanism of anticancer activity. Results Three dihydrobenzofuran derivatives (1–3) have been isolated from the ethyl acetate fraction of P. barbatum. The structures of isolated compounds were elucidated as methyl (2S,3S)-2-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)-4-((E)-3-ethoxy-3-oxoprop-1-en-1-yl)-7-methoxy-2,3-dihydrobenzo-furan-3-carboxylate (1), (E)-3-((2S,3S)-2-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)-7-methoxy-3-(methoxy carbonyl)-2,3-dihydrobenzofuran-4-yl)acrylic acid (2) and (2S,3S)-4-((E)-2-carboxyvinyl)-2-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)-7-hydroxy-2,3-dihydrobenzofuran-3-carboxylic acid (3). The compound 1 was found to be more potent with IC50 of 48.52 ± 0.95 and 53.24 ± 1.49 against oral cancer cells as compared to standard drug (IC50 = 97.76 ± 3.44 μM). Both compound also inhibited lung cancer cells but at higher concentrations. Morphological and flow cytometry analysis further confirms that compound 1 induces apoptosis after 24 to 48 h treatment. In antiangiogenesis assay, compounds 1, 2 and 3 exhibited IC50 values of 8.2 ± 1.1, 13.4 ± 1.1 and 57.7 ± 0.3 μM respectively. The docking studies revealed that the compounds under study have the potential to target the DNA and thymidylate synthase (TS). Conclusion Based on its overwhelming potency against the tested cell lines and in angiogenesis assay, compound 1 can be further evaluated mechanistically and can be developed as anticancer drug candidate.

Abstract
With the aim of discovering new anticancer agents, we have designed and synthesized novel α-aminophosphonate derivatives containing a 2-oxoquinoline structure using a convenient one-pot three-component method. The newly synthesized compounds were evaluated for antitumor activities against the A549 (human lung adenocarcinoma cell), HeLa (human cervical carcinoma cell), MCF-7 (human breast cancer cell), and U2OS (human osteosarcoma cell) cancer cell lines in vitro, employing a standard 3-(4,5-dimethyl-2-thiazolyl)-2,5-diphenyl-2-H-tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay. The results of pharmacological screening indicated that many compounds exhibited moderate to high levels of antitumor activities against the tested cancer cell lines and that most compounds showed more potent inhibitory activities comparable to 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) which was used as a positive control. The mechanism of representative compound 4u (diethyl((2-oxo-1,2-dihydroquinolin-3-yl)(phenyl-amino)methyl)phosphonate) indicated that the compound mainly arrested HeLa cells in S and G2 stages and was accompanied by apoptosis in HeLa cells. This action was confirmed by acridine orange/ethidium bromide staining, Hoechst 33342 staining, and flow cytometry.
