Heliyon 2024; 10:e33150. [PMID: 38994046 PMCID: PMC11238129 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e33150] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/16/2024] [Revised: 06/12/2024] [Accepted: 06/14/2024] [Indexed: 07/13/2024] Open
Abstract
In the previous study, the synthesis and characterization of 4-(3-fluorophenyl)-3-thiosemicarbazide and benzaldehyde derivatives based thiosemicarbazone ligands and their Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), Zn(II) complexes were carried out to evaluate their malarial and oxidant and inflammatory inhibition abilities, demonstrating that these compounds have robust efficacy for these ailments. In the present research, to find out a combating agent against breast cancer, tuberculosis, bacterial and fungal ailments, the compounds were tested through MTT, microplate alamar blue and serial dilution protocols. ADMET and DFT investigation were analyzed against highly bioactive compounds (2, 7-10) to give a new insight about compound's reactivity, stability and drug likeness properties. Furthermore, activity results shows that the ligand (2) and its complexes demonstrate greater efficacy compared to ligand (1) and its complexes. The Cu(II) (9) and Zn(II) (10) complexes were observed as highly efficient for breast cancer (MCF-7 cell line), TB (H37Rv strain), bacterial and fungal ailments in comparison of standard drugs with 0.029 ± 0.001 μM IC50 value for (9) in anticancer activity and 0.0034 ± 0.0017 μmol/mL MIC value for (10) in anti-tuberculosis activity. In the molecular docking investigation, the various kind of binding interactions and lowest binding affinity of (9) (against 4RJ3 (-10.0 kcal/mol), 2VCJ (-7.9 kcal/mol)) and (10) (-7.8 and -8.3 kcal/mol for 5V3Y and 3PTY protein) support their bioactivity. This research highlights the pharmaceutical importance of transition metal complexes having thiosemicarbazones, presenting a significant approach for the discovery of potent anti-infectious agent.

Abstract
Sulphur containing compounds possess a great deal of interest due to wide range of beneficial activities towards biotic species. This work also deals with the study of biological examination of newly synthesized sulphur containing Cu(II) and Zn(II) complexes derived from (E)-4-(phenylimino)-3-((E)-1-(phenylimino)ethyl)pent-2-ene-1-thiol Schiff bases. Moreover, the DNA nuclease efficiency of the synthesized metal complexes is studied by UV absorption studies, Fluorescence studies, Viscosity and CV titrations which confirm the intercalative mode of binding. Pharmacokinetic studies and drug like activity of these compounds are screened with the help of SWISS ADME online freeware. Their morphological nature is corroborated by various spectral techniques. Optimized geometry and biologically accessible nature of the synthesized compounds are investigated by Gaussian 09 W software. Interestingly, molecular docking studies are carried out against cancer DNA and 6J10 cancer cell. Anti-inflammatory and in vitro antioxidant activities have been studied to validate the theoretical prediction. Based on these preliminary pharmacological activities, the in vitro cytotoxicity and in vivo antitumor activities are examined using MCF-7, HeLa, Hep-2, HepG-2 and Ehrlich ascites carcinoma (EAC) cell lines. All the above examinations reveal that the nitro substituted transition metal complexes possess higher biological bustle.Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.
