Five new meroterpenoids, zizhines P-S and U (1−4,7), together with two known meroterpenoids (5 and 6) were isolated from Ganoderma sinensis. Their structures including absolute configurations were assigned by using spectroscopic, computational, and chemical methods. Racemics zizhines P and Q were purified by HPLC on chiral phase. Biological evaluation found that 4, 5 and 6 are cytotoxic toward human cancer cells (A549, BGC-823, Kyse30) with IC50 values in the range of 63.43–80.83 μM towards A549, 59.2 ± 2.73 μM and 64.25 ± 0.37 μM towards BGC-823, 76.28 ± 1.93 μM and 85.42 ± 2.82 μM towards Kyse30.

The development of selective anticancer vaccines that provide enhanced protection against tumor recurrence and metastasis has been the subject of intense research in the scientific community. The tumor-associated glycoprotein MUC1 represents a well-established target for cancer immunotherapy and has been used for the construction of various synthetic vaccine candidates. However, many of these vaccine prototypes suffer from an inherent low immunogenicity and are susceptible to rapid in vivo degradation. To overcome these drawbacks, novel fluorinated MUC1 glycopeptide-BSA/TTox conjugate vaccines have been prepared. Immunization of mice with the 4’F-TF-MUC1-TTox conjugate resulted in strong immune responses overriding the natural tolerance against MUC1 and producing selective IgG antibodies that are cross-reactive with native MUC1 epitopes on MCF-7 human cancer cells.

Mdr Reversal

Multi-drug resistance (MDR) in cancer cells is often associated with overexpression of P-glycoprotein (P-gp or ABCB1 or MDR1); therefore, modulators of this transporter might be helpful in overcoming MDR. In this study, 16 novel unsymmetrical dihydropyridine (DHP) derivatives bearing 2-pyridyl methyl carboxylate at C3 and a nitroimidazole or nitrophenyl ring at C4 positions of the DHP ring were synthesized. Their cytotoxicity was tested against four human cancer cells by MTT assay. The reversal capacity of MDR was examined in P-gp overexpressing cells (MES-SA/DX5) by measuring the alteration of doxorubicin’s IC50 and performing flow cytometric determination of intracellular rhodamine 123 accumulation. The calcium channel blocking (CCB) activity, as a side effect of DHPs, was tested on the ileum of a guinea pig. Molecular docking was performed to explain the binding mode of compounds. Two derivatives, 4a and 4c, containing 4-nitrophenyl at C4 and possessing methyl (4a) and iso-propyl (4c) carboxylates at the C5 position of DHP core demonstrated superior cytotoxic and MDR reversal activities and lower CCB effect. Docking analysis confirmed the importance of the 4-nitrophenyl ring for P-gp inhibitory activity. Some of the synthesized DHP derivatives with considerable MDR reversal capacity could be promising compounds for further discovery of useful agents for management of drug resistant cancer.
