Abstract
The synthesis of a series of new N-benzylidene derivatives of 3-amino-4-imino-3,5-dihydro-4H-chromeno[2,3-d]pyrimidine 10(a-l) bearing two points of molecular diversity is reported. These new compounds were synthesized in five steps including two steps under microwave dielectric heating. They were fully characterized using 1H and 13C NMR, FTIR and HRMS. The in silico physicochemical properties of compounds 10(a-l) were determined according to Lipinski's rules of five (RO5) associated with the prediction of their bioavailability. These new compounds 10(a-l) were tested for their antiproliferative activities in fibroblasts and eight representative human tumoral cell lines (Huh7 D12, Caco2, MDA-MB231, MDA-MB468, HCT116, PC3, MCF7 and PANC1). Among them, the compounds 10h and 10i showed sub-micromolar cytotoxic activity on tumor cell lines (0.23 < IC50 < 0.3 μM) and no toxicity on fibroblasts (IC50 > 25 μM). A dose-dependent inhibition of Store-Operated Ca+2 Entry (SOCE) was observed in the HEK293 cell line with 10h. In vitro embryotoxicity and angiogenesis on the mCherry transgenic zebrafish line showed that 10h presented no toxic effect and no angiogenic effect on embryos with a dose of 5 μM at 72 hpf.

Abstract
The changes in intracellular free calcium (Ca2+) levels are one of the most widely regulators of cell function; therefore, calcium as a universal intracellular mediator is involved in very important human diseases and disorders. In many cells, Ca2+ inflow is mediated by store-operated calcium channels, and it is recognized that the store-operated calcium entry (SOCE) is mediated by the two partners: the pore-forming proteins Orai (Orai1-3) and the calcium store sensor, stromal interaction molecule (STIM1-2). Importantly, the Orai/STIM channels are involved in crucial cell signalling processes such as growth factors, neurotransmitters, and cytokines via interaction with protein tyrosine kinase coupled receptors and G protein-coupled receptors. Therefore, in recent years, the issue of Orai/STIM channels as a drug target in human diseases has received considerable attention. This review summarizes and highlights our current knowledge of the Orai/STIM channels in human diseases and disorders, including immunodeficiency, myopathy, tubular aggregate, Stormorken syndrome, York platelet syndrome, cardiovascular and metabolic disorders, and cancers, as well as suggesting these channels as drug targets for pharmacological therapeutic intervention. Moreover, this work will also focus on the pharmacological modulators of Orai/STIM channel complexes. Together, our thoughtful of the biology and physiology of the Orai/STIM channels have grown remarkably during the past three decades, and the next important milestone in the field of store-operated calcium entry will be to identify potent and selective small molecules as a therapeutic agent with the purpose to target human diseases and disorders for patient benefit.

Abstract
Store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE) is the major pathway of Ca2+ entry in mammalian cells, and regulates a variety of cellular functions including proliferation, motility, apoptosis, and death. Accumulating evidence has indicated that augmented SOCE is related to the generation and development of cancer, including tumor formation, proliferation, angiogenesis, metastasis, and antitumor immunity. Therefore, the development of compounds targeting SOCE has been proposed as a potential and effective strategy for use in cancer therapy. In this review, we summarize the current research on SOCE inhibitors and blockers, discuss their effects and possible mechanisms of action in cancer therapy, and induce a new perspective on the treatment of cancer.

Abstract
In the adult, vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) are normally physiologically quiescent, arranged circumferentially in one or more layers within blood vessel walls. Remodelling of native VSMC to a proliferative state for vascular development, adaptation or repair is driven by platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF). A key effector downstream of PDGF receptors is store-operated calcium entry (SOCE) mediated through the plasma membrane calcium ion channel, ORAI1, which is activated by the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) calcium store sensor, stromal interaction molecule-1 (STIM1). This SOCE was shown to play fundamental roles in the pathological remodelling of VSMC. Exciting transgenic lineage-tracing studies have revealed that the contribution of the phenotypically-modulated VSMC in atherosclerotic plaque formation is more significant than previously appreciated, and growing evidence supports the relevance of ORAI1 signalling in this pathologic remodelling. ORAI1 has also emerged as an attractive potential therapeutic target as it is accessible to extracellular compound inhibition. This is further supported by the progression of several ORAI1 inhibitors into clinical trials. Here we discuss the current knowledge of ORAI1-mediated signalling in pathologic vascular remodelling, particularly in the settings of atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) and neointimal hyperplasia, and the recent developments in our understanding of the mechanisms by which ORAI1 coordinates VSMC phenotypic remodelling, through the activation of key transcription factor, nuclear factor of activated T-cell (NFAT). In addition, we discuss advances in therapeutic strategies aimed at the ORAI1 target.

Abstract
Tectorigenin, a traditional Chinese medicine, is isolated from the flower of plants such as Pueraria thomsonii Benth. It is an O-methylated isoflavone, a type of flavonoid. Previous studies have shown that tectorigenin evoked various physiological responses in different models, but the effect of tectorigenin on cytosolic-free Ca2+ levels ([Ca2+]i) and cytotoxicity in renal tubular cells is unknown. Our research explored if tectorigenin changed Ca2+ signal transduction and viability in Madin-Darby Canine Kidney (MDCK) renal tubular cells. [Ca2+]iin suspended cells were measured by applying the fluorescent Ca2+-sensitive probe fura-2. Viability was explored by using water-soluble tetrazolium-1 as a fluorescent dye. Tectorigenin at concentrations of 5-50 μM induced [Ca2+]irises. Ca2+ removal reduced the signal by approximately 20%. Tectorigenin (50 μM) induced Mn2+ influx suggesting of Ca2+ entry. Tectorigenin-induced Ca2+ entry was inhibited by 10% by three inhibitors of store-operated Ca2+ channels, namely, nifedipine, econazole, and SKF96365. In Ca2+-free medium, treatment with the endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ pump inhibitor thapsigargin inhibited 83% of tectorigenin-evoked [Ca2+]irises. Conversely, treatment with tectorigenin abolished thapsigargin-evoked [Ca2+]irises. Inhibition of phospholipase C with U73122 inhibited 50% of tectorigenin-induced [Ca2+]irises. Tectorigenin at concentrations between 10 and 60 μM killed cells in a concentration-dependent fashion. Chelation of cytosolic Ca2+ with 1,2-bis (2-aminophenoxy)ethane-N, N, N', N'-tetraacetic acid/acetoxy methyl did not reverse tectorigenin's cytotoxicity. Our data suggest that, in MDCK cells, tectorigenin evoked [Ca2+]irises and induced cell death that was not associated with [Ca2+]irises. Therefore, tectorigenin may be a Ca2+-independent cytotoxic agent for kidney cells.

Abstract
Terfenadine, an antihistamine used for the treatment of allergic conditions, affected Ca2+-related physiological responses in various models. However, the effect of terfenadine on cytosolic free Ca2+ levels ([Ca2+]i) and its related physiology in renal tubular cells is unknown. This study examined whether terfenadine altered Ca2+ signaling and caused cytotoxicity in Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) renal tubular cells. The Ca2+-sensitive fluorescent dye fura-2 was used to measure [Ca2+]i. Cell viability was measured by the fluorescent reagent 4-[3-[4-lodophenyl]-2-4(4-nitrophenyl)-2H-5-tetrazolio-1,3-benzene disulfonate] water soluble tetrazolium-1 (WST-1) assay. Terfenadine at concentrations of 100-1000 μM induced [Ca2+]i rises concentration dependently. The response was reduced by approximately 35% by removing extracellular Ca2+. In Ca2+-free medium, treatment with the endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ pump inhibitor 2,5-di-tert-butylhydroquinone (BHQ) partly inhibited terfenadine-evoked [Ca2+]i rises. Conversely, treatment with terfenadine abolished BHQ-evoked [Ca2+]i rises. Inhibition of phospholipase C (PLC) with U73122 inhibited 95% of terfenadine-induced Ca2+ release. Terfenadine-induced Ca2+ entry was supported by Mn2+-caused quenching of fura-2 fluorescence. Terfenadine-induced Ca2+ entry was partly inhibited by an activator of protein kinase C (PKC), phorbol 12-myristate 13 acetate (PMA) and by three modulators of store-operated Ca2+ channels (nifedipine, econazole, and SKF96365). Terfenadine at 200-300 μM decreased cell viability, which was not reversed by pretreatment with the Ca2+ chelator 1,2-bis(2-aminophenoxy)ethane-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid-acetoxymethyl ester (BAPTA/AM). Together, in MDCK cells, terfenadine induced [Ca2+]i rises by evoking PLC-dependent Ca2+ release from the endoplasmic reticulum and Ca2+ entry via PKC-sensitive store-operated Ca2+ entry. Furthermore, terfenadine caused cell death that was not triggered by preceding [Ca2+]i rises.
