Background: Indoline-2,3-dione comprises a leading course group of heterocycles endowed with appealing biological actions, including anticancer activity. There are significant justifications for exploring the anticancer activity of Schiff base derivatives of isatin as a vast number of reports have documented remarkable antiproliferative action of isatin nucleus against various cancer cell lines. Aims and Objectives: A series of arylthiazole linked 2H-indol-2-one derivatives (5a-t) was designed and synthesized as potential VEGFR-2 kinase inhibitors keeping the essential pharmacophoric features of standard drugs, like sunitinib, sorafenib, nintedanib, etc. They were evaluated for their in vitro anticancer activity. The aim of this study was to investigate and assess the anticancer potential of isatin-containing compounds along with their kinase inhibition activity. Methods: The title compounds were synthesized by reacting substituted isatins with para-substituted arylthiazoles using appropriate reaction conditions. Selected synthesized derivatives went under preliminary screening against a panel of 60 cancer cell lines at NCI, the USA, for single-dose and five dose assays. Molecular docking was performed to explore the binding and interactions with the active sites of the VEGFR-2 receptor (PDB Id: 3VHE). Derivatives 5a, 5b, 5c, 5d, 5g, 5h, and 5m were assessed for in vitro inhibition potency against Human VEGFR-2 using ELISA (Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay) kit. All the target compounds were determined against human colon cancer cell line SW480 (colorectal adenocarcinoma cells). Cellular apoptosis/necrosis was determined by flow cytometry using annexin V-FITC. DNA content of the cells was analyzed by flow cytometry and the cycle distribution was quantified. Results: Compounds 5a and 5g exhibited noteworthy inhibition during a five-dose assay against a panel of 60 cell lines with MID GI50 values of 1.69 and 1.54 µM, respectively. Also, both the lead compounds 5a and 5g demonstrated promising VEGFR-2 inhibitory activity with IC50 values of 5.43±0.95 and 9.63±1.32 µM, respectively. The aforesaid potent compounds were found effective against SW480 (colorectal adenocarcinoma cells) with IC50 values of 31.44 µM and 106.91 µM, respectively. Compound 5a was found to arrest the cell cycle at the G2/M phase, increasing apoptotic cell death. The docking study also supported VEGFR-2 inhibitory activity as both compounds 5a and 5g displayed promising binding and interactions with the active sites of VEGFR-2 receptor (PDB: 3VHE) with docking scores -9.355 and -7.758, respectively. All the compounds obeyed Lipinski’s rule of five. Conclusion: Indoline-2,3-dione and thiazole have huge potential to be considered a steer combination approach for developing promising kinase inhibitors as cancer therapeutics.

Background: Natural naphthoquinones have shown diversified biological activities including antibacterial, antifungal, antimalarial, and cytotoxic activities. However, they are also compounds with acute cytotoxicity, immunotoxicity, carcinogenesis, and cardio- and hepatotoxicity, then the modification at their redox center is an interesting strategy to overcome such harmful activity. Objective: In this study, four novel semisynthetic hydrazones, derived from the isomers α- and β-lapachones (α and β, respectively) and coupled with the drugs hydralazine (HDZ) and isoniazid (ACIL), were prepared, evaluated by electrochemical methods and assayed for anticancer activity. Method: The semisynthetic hydrazones were obtained and had their molecular structures established by NMR, IR, and MS. Anticancer activity was evaluated by cell viability determined by reduction of 3-(4,5-dimethyl-2-thiazol)-2,5-diphenyl-2H-tetrazolium bromide (MTT). The electrochemical studies, mainly cyclic voltammetry, were performed, in aprotic and protic media. Result: The study showed that the compounds 2, 3, and 4 were active against at least one of the cancer cell lines evaluated, being compounds 3 and 4 the most cytotoxic. Toward HL-60 cells, compound 3 was 20x more active than β-lapachone, and 3x more cytotoxic than doxorubicin. Furthermore, 3 showed an SI value of 39.62 for HL-60 cells. Compound 4 was active against all cancer cells tested, with IC50 values in the range 2.90–12.40 μM. Electrochemical studies revealed a profile typical of self-protonation and reductive cleavage, dependent on the supporting electrolyte. Conclusion: These results therefore indicate that compounds 3 and 4 are strong candidates as prototypes of new antineoplastic drugs.

Antibody-drug conjugates (ADC) are effective antibody-based therapeutics for hematopoietic and lymphoid tumors. However, there is need to identify new targets for ADCs, particularly for solid tumors and cancers with unmet needs. From a hybridoma library developed against cancer cells, we selected the mouse monoclonal antibody 33B7, which was able to bind to, and internalize, cancer cell lines. This antibody was used for identification of the target by immunoprecipitation and mass spectrometric analysis, followed by target validation. After target validation, 33B7 binding and target positivity were tested by flow cytometry and western blot analysis in several cancer cell lines. The ability of 33B7 conjugated to saporin to inhibit in vitro proliferation of PTFRN positive cell lines was investigated, as well as the 33B7 ADC in vivo effect on tumor growth in athymic mice. All flow cytometry and in vitro internalization assays were analyzed for statistical significance using a Welsh’s T-test. Animal studies were analyzed using Two-Way Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) utilizing post-hoc Bonferroni analysis, and/or Mixed Effects analysis. The 33B7 cell surface target was identified as Prostaglandin F2 Receptor Negative Regulator (PTGFRN), a transmembrane protein in the Tetraspanin family. This target was confirmed by showing that PTGFRN-expressing cells bound and internalized 33B7, compared to PTGFRN negative cells. Cells able to bind 33B7 were PTGFRN-positive by Western blot analysis. In vitro treatment PTGFRN-positive cancer cell lines with the 33B7-saporin ADC inhibited their proliferation in a dose-dependent fashion. 33B7 conjugated to saporin was also able to block tumor growth in vivo in mouse xenografts when compared to a control ADC. These findings show that screening antibody libraries for internalizing antibodies in cancer cell lines is a good approach to identify new cancer targets for ADC development. These results suggest PTGFRN is a possible therapeutic target via antibody-based approach for certain cancers.

Bioactivity guided investigation of the DCM: MeOH (1:1) extract from the rhizomes of Alpinia galanga led to the isolation of phenylpropanoids (1–9) and their structures were established by 1H NMR, 13C NMR, IR and LC-MS/MS. These compounds have been evaluated for their in vitro anticancer activity against the human cancer cell lines A549 (lung cancer), Colo-205 (colon cancer), A431 (skin cancer), NCI H460 (lung cancer), PC-3 (prostate cancer), and HT-29 (colon cancer). Compounds 4 and 9 showed potent anticancer activity (ranging from 1.3–19.7 μg/mL) against all the tested cancer cell lines. In addition, an asymmetric synthesis of acetoxychavicol acetate (1) and trans-p-coumaryl alcohol (4) has been accomplished in six steps starting from readily available p-hydroxybenzaldehyde for the first time. Grignard reaction and Sharpless kinetic resolution reactions were utilized as the key steps to install the basic core.
