Background: Phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase α (PI3Kα) is a ubiquitous intracellular enzyme, mainly involved in intracellular signaling pathways, promotes cellular growth, proliferation, and differentiation. Therefore, inhibition of PI3K can be a hotspot in molecular targeted therapy for the treatment of cancer. Methods: The present research work involves molecular docking studies performed to screen derivatives of urea and thiourea bearing thieno [3,2-d]-pyrimidines against the active site of PI3K enzyme using MOE.2008.10. The designed structures (6a-f) and (7a-j) were synthesized by the facile synthetic methods and evaluated for their anticancer activity against HT-29 and MCF-7 cell lines and inhibitory activity against PI3Kα enzyme. Results: Among the tested compounds, 4-(4-(2-(3-(pyrimidin-2-yl)thioureido)ethyl)piperazin-1-yl)thieno[3,2- d]pyrimidine-6-carboxamide (7f) showed the highest anticancer activity against HT-29 and MCF-7 cell lines with IC50 values of 2.18 µM and 4.25 µM, respectively. Further, the same compound also exhibited potent PI3Kα inhibitory activity with IC50 value of 1.26 µM. Conclusion: Docking studies supported the initial pharmacophoric hypothesis and suggested a mode of interaction at the active binding site of PI3Kα, demonstrating that the target compounds were potential inhibitory agents for cancer therapy.

The discovery of DNA topoisomerases has added a new dimension to the study of anticancer drugs. Bisbenzimidazole derivatives are important compounds known as DNA topoisomerase I inhibitors. In the present study, some symmetrical bisbenzimidazole derivatives were synthesized and investigated for their anticancer activity. Anticancer activity screening was applied on HT-29 (colon carcinoma) and MCF-7 (breast carcinoma) cell lines by investigation of cytotoxicity, analysis of DNA synthesis, and DNA fragmentation assays. One of the seven compounds tested showed signifi cant cytotoxicity in both cell lines and caused DNA degradation in the HT-29 cell line.

Background: Thiophene ring forms important building block in medicinal chemistry. Literature reveals that thiophene ring in combination with different groups shows different activity. By keeping these things in mind we have designed and synthesized a new series of amide and sulfonamide coupled thiophene. A series of novel substituted 3-sulfamoylbenzo[b]thiophene-4- carboxamide molecules containing sulfonamide and amide group were designed, synthesized and used for anti-proliferative activity study. Methods: The final compounds 16-36 were synthesized by using series of reactions comprising sulfonation, sulfonamide coupling, hydrolysis and peptide coupling. The yields of compounds 16- 36 are in the range of 90-98%. The structures of the synthesized compounds were elucidated and confirmed by 1H NMR, 13C NMR, LCMS and the purity was checked through HPLC analysis. The compounds were further tested for their in vitro anticancer activity against a series of cell lines A549, HeLa, MCF-7 and Du-145. Results: The intermediates 8-13, 15 and final compounds 16-36 were synthesized in good yields. The synthesized compounds were further tested for their anticancer activity and most of compounds showed moderate to good anticancer activity against all four cell lines. Conclusion: We have synthesized 21 compounds and were screened for anticancer activity against MCF-7, HeLa, A-549 and Du-145 cancer cell lines. Most of the compounds were active for tested cell lines with IC50 value in the range of 1.81 to 9.73 μM. The compounds 18, 19, 21, 25, 30, 31 and 33 are most active in cell line data with IC50 value in the range of 1.81 to 2.52 μM.

Abstract Towards optimization of the pyrrolizine-5-carboxamide scaffold, a novel series of six derivatives (4a-c and 5a-c) was prepared and evaluated for their anti-inflammatory, analgesic and anticancer activities. The (EZ)-7-cyano-6-((4-hydroxybenzylidene)amino)-N-(p-tolyl)-2,3-dihydro-1H-pyrrolizine-5-carboxamide (4b) and (EZ)-6-((4-chlorobenzylidene)-amino)-7-cyano-N-(p-tolyl)-2,3-dihydro-1H-pyrrolizine-5-carboxamide (5b) bearing the electron donating methyl group showed the highest anti-inflammatory activity while (EZ)-6-((4-chlorobenzylidene)amino)-7-cyano-N-phenyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-pyrrolizine-5-carboxamide (5a) was the most active analgesic agent. Cytotoxicity of the new compounds was evaluated against the MCF-7, A2780 and HT29 cancer cell lines using the MTT assay. Compounds 4b and 5b displayed high anticancer activity with IC50 in the range of 0.30–0.92 μmol L−1 against the three cell lines, while compound (EZ)-N-(4-chlorophenyl)-7-cyano-6-((4-hydroxybenzylidene)-amino)-2,3-dihydro-1H-pyrrolizine-5-carboxamide (4c) was the most active against MCF-7 cells (IC50 = 0.08 μmol L−1). Both the anti-inflammatory and anticancer activities of the new compounds were dependent on the type of substituent on the phenyl rings. Substituents with opposite electronic effects on the two phenyl rings are preferable for high cytotoxicity against the MCF-7 and A2780 cells. COX inhibition was suggested as the molecular mechanism of the anti-inflammatory activity of the new compounds while no clear relationship could be observed between COX inhibition and anticancer activity. Compound 5b, the most active against the three cell lines, induced dose-dependent early apoptosis with 0.1–0.2 % necrosis in MCF-7 cells. New compounds showed promising drug-likeness scores while the docking study revealed high binding affinity to COX-2. Taken together, this study highlighted the significant impact of the substituents on the anti-inflammatory and anticancer activity of pyrrolizine-5-carboxamides, which could help in further optimization to discover good leads for the treatment of cancer and inflammation.

Ergosterol peroxide (1) and ergosterol (2) were commonly isolated as the major compounds of Philippine mushrooms. Sterols 1 and 2 from the dichloromethane extract of Geastrum triplex and Termitomyces clypeatus, respectively, were evaluated for their cytotoxic activities against four human cancer cell lines, viz., breast cancer (MCF-7), colon cancer (HT-29), leukemia (THP-1), and small lung cell carcinoma (H69PR), and a human normal cell line, human dermal fibroblast-neonatal (HDFn), using the PrestoBlue® cell viability assay. Compounds 1 and 2 exhibited the strongest activities against HT-29 with IC50 values of 1.79 and 2.98 μg/mL, respectively, while Zeocin gave an IC50 of 4.89 μg/mL. These compounds also exhibited strong antiproliferative effects against MCF-7 with IC50 values of 4.13 for 1 and 4.20 μg/mL for compound 2, comparable to Zeocin with IC50 = 3.68 μg/mL. Only moderate cytotoxicity resulted when compounds 1 and 2 were tested against H69PR with IC50 values of 7.78 and 6.83 μg/mL, respectively, while Zeocin exhibited an IC50 of 9.81 μg/mL. Furthermore, compounds 1 and 2 showed no effects against THP-1 (IC50 > 100 μg/mL), while Zeocin showed an IC50 of 4.73 μg/mL. Although compounds 1 and 2 have been reported to exhibit different bioactivities in previous studies, the cancer cell lines tested and/or the polarities of the solvents for extraction varied. Therefore, comparisons of the cytotoxic activities of compounds 1 and 2 with earlier studies could not be made extensively.

A series of novel alkyl amine-substituted icariside II (ICA II) derivatives were synthesized by Mannich reactions at the 6-C position (compounds 4a–d) and changing the carbon chain length at the 7-OH position (compounds 7a–h), and their in vitro antitumor activity towards human breast cancer lines (MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231) and human hepatoma cell lines (HepG2 and HCCLM3-LUC) were evaluated by the MTT assay. Compared with ICA II, most of the twelve derivatives showed good micromole level activity and a preliminary structure-activity relationship (SAR) for the anticancer activity was obtained. Compound 7g showed the most potent inhibitory activity for the four cancer cell lines (13.28 μM for HCCLM3-LUC, 3.96 μM for HepG2, 2.44 μM for MCF-7 and 4.21 μM for MDA-MB-231), which was 2.94, 5.54, 12.56 and 7.72-fold stronger than that of ICA II. The preliminary SAR showed that the introduction of a alkyl amine substituent at 6-C was not favorable for the anticancer activity, while most of the 7-O-alkylamino derivatives exhibited good antitumor activity and the anticancer activity 7-O-alkylamino derivatives were influenced by the alkyl chain length and the different terminal amine substituents. Furthermore, the effects of compound 7g on apoptosis and cell cycle of MCF-7 cells were further investigated, which showed that compound 7g triggered apoptosis and arrested the cell cycle at the G0/G1 phase in MCF-7 cells. Our findings indicate that compound 7g may be a promising anticancer drug candidate lead.
