3-hydroxy-2-phenylchromen-4-one (HF) is a flavonols that is formed when hypoxanthine is attached to a ribose ring (also known as a ribofuranose) via a β-N9-glycosidic bond. Cyclodextrins are able to form host-guest complexes with hydrophobic molecules given the unique nature imparted by their structure.As a result, these molecules have found a number of applications in a wide range of fields. The inclusion complex of HF with 2HP-β-CD is prepared by various synthetic method such as physical method (PM), kneading method (KM) and co-precipitation method (CP). The solid inclusion complex is characterized by UV, luminescence spectra, Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and powder X-ray diffraction (XRD). The anticancer activity of the solid complex is performed against breast cancer cell line and it is noticed that there is no much better activity than the HF alone. Both the HF and its solid complex showed the poor anticancer activity against MDA MB 231 cell line.

Cannabidiol (CBD) is one specific kind of the cannabinoid in Cannabis sativa L with a wide range of pharmacological activities. However, the poor water solubility and specificity of CBD limits its application in pharmaceutical field. For solving these problems, in this work, we successfully prepared a targeted carrier by grafting biotin (BIO) onto ethylenediamine-β-Cyclodextrin (EN-CD) in a single step to generate a functionalized supramolecule, named BIO-CD. Subsequently, an amantadine-conjugated cannabinoids (AD-CBD) was prepared and self-assembled with the BIO-CD. A series of methods were used to characterize the inclusion behavior and physicochemical properties of AD-CBD and BIO-CD. The results showed that AD-CBD entered the cavity of BIO-CD and formed a 1:1 host-guest inclusion complex. MTT assay and confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) revealed that the targeting effect and anticancer activity of AD-CBD/BIO-CD inclusion complex against three human cancer cell lines were higher than BIO-CD, AD-CBD and free CBD. Moreover, the inclusion complex could release drugs under weakly acidic conditions. These results demonstrated that AD-CBD/BIO-CD inclusion complex possess excellent targeted and anticancer activity, which is hopeful to be applied in clinic as a new therapeutic approach.

Inclusion complex formation of atenolol with -cyclodextrin (-CD) has been investigated by HPLC on different stationary phases, by varying pH and concentration of -CD added as an additive in the mobile phase over a wide range of column temperature. Stationary phases of different polarity and hydrophobicity were evaluated to find the best conditions for complex formation. The optimum conditions for inclusion complexation were achieved on YMC ODS-AQ C18 ( mm, 5 μ) analytical column. The apparent formation constant () of the complex as evaluated by liquid chromatography using retention factors () was  M−1 at 25°C. The stoichiometry of the complex was 1 : 1 as is evident from the straight line plot of 1/ versus -CD concentration. The formation of inclusion complex was essentially enthalpy (−42.12 kJ/mol) driven and the binding forces included hydrophobic, van der Waals-London dispersion interactions. The enthalpy-entropy compensation criterion was used to prove the inclusion phenomena.

Aims: To prepare lamivudine (LAM)-loaded-nanoparticles (NPs) that can be used in lung cancer treatment. To change the antiviral indication of LAM to anticancer. Background: The development of anticancer drugs is a difficult process. One approach to accelerate the availability of drugs is to reclassify drugs approved for other conditions as anticancer. The most common route of administration of anticancer drugs is intravenous injection. Oral administration of anticancer drugs may considerably change current treatment modalities of chemotherapy and improve the life quality of cancer patients. There is also a potentially significant economic advantage. Objective: To characterize the LAM-loaded-NPs and examine the anticancer activity. Methods: LAM-loaded-NPs were prepared using Nano Spray-Dryer. Properties of NPs were elucidated by particle size (PS), polydispersity index (PDI), zeta potential (ZP), SEM, encapsulation efficiency (EE%), dissolution, release kinetics, DSC and FT-IR. Then, the anticancer activity of all NPs was examined. Results: The PS values of the LAM-loaded-NPs were between 373 and 486 nm. All NPs prepared have spherical structure and positive ZP. EE% was in a range of 61-79%. NPs showed prolonged release and the release kinetics fitted to the Weibull model. NPs structures were clarified by DSC and FT-IR analysis. The results showed that the properties of NPs were directly related to the drug:polymer ratio of feed solution. NPs have potential anticancer properties against A549 cell line at low concentrations and non-toxic to CCD 19-Lu cell line. Conclusion: NPs have potential anticancer properties against human lung adenocarcinoma cells and may induce cell death effectively and be a potent modality to treat this type of cancer. These experiments also indicate that our formulations are non-toxic to normal cells. It is clear that this study would bring a new perspective to cancer therapy.

A series of novel triazole functionalized pyrido [3',2':4,5] furo[3,2-d] pyrimidin-4 (3H)-one derivatives 7a-p were prepared from ethyl furo[2,3-b]pyridine-2-carboxylate 3 on reaction with ammonia to afford furo[2,3-b]pyridine-2-carboxamide 4. This compound, on reaction with triethyl orthoformate TEOF, gave compound 5. Compound 5 on propargylation, followed by a reaction with substituted aryl azides under Sharpless reaction conditions, furnished triazole tagged pyrido [3',2':4,5]furo[3,2-d] pyrimidin-4(3H)-one derivatives. All the products 7a-p were screened against four human cancer cell lines, such as HeLa - Cervical cancer (CCL-2), COLO 205- Colon cancer (CCL-222), HepG2- Liver cancer (HB-8065), and MCF7 - Breast cancer (HTB-22) and one normal cell line (HEK 293). Compounds 7b, 7n, 7o and 7p, which showed promising anticancer activity, were identified and found to be non-toxic to normal cell line. Studies for HeLa, COLO205, HepG2, and MCF-7 using CoMFA and CoMSIA were carried out . Models from 3D-QSAR provided a strong basis for future rational design of more active and selective HeLa, COLO205, HepG2, and MCF-7 cell line inhibitors.

Background: Hydrazones, one of the important classes of organic molecules, are pharmaceutical agents comprising –CO-NH-N=CH- group in the structure therefore and exhibiting significant biological activity. Methods: 5-Chloro-N’-[(substituted)methylidene] pyrazine-2-carbohydrazide (3a-g) and their Pd(II) complexes (4a-h) were synthesized and investigated in vitro anticancer activity on A549, Caco2 cancer and normal 3T3 fibroblast cell lines, using the MTT assay. Results: Anticancer activity screening results revealed that some compounds showed remarkable cytotoxic effect. Among them, 5-chloro-N'-[(4-hydroxyphenyl)methylidene] pyrazine-2-carbohydrazide (3c) displayed higher cytotoxic activity against A549 cancer cell line than the reference drug cisplatin. Conclusion: Compound 3c showed high cytotoxic activity against A549 cancer cell line but it showed low cytotoxic effect against normal 3T3 fibroblast cell line. Antiproliferative and antimetastatic effects of 3c were determined by the real-time monitoring of cell proliferative system (RTCA DP). The cell proliferation, metastatic and invasive activities of A549 cells were decreased due to increased concentration of 3c.

Background: Coconut oil is an edible oil obtained from fresh, mature coconut kernels. Few studies have reported the anticancer role of coconut oil. The fatty acid component of coconut oil directly targets the liver by portal circulation and as chylomicron via lymph. However, the anti-cancer activity of coconut oil against liver cancer cells and oral cancer cells is yet to be tested. The active component of coconut oil, that is responsible for the anticancer activity is not well understood. In this study, three different coconut oils, Virgin Coconut Oil (VCO), Processed Coconut Oil (PCO) and Fractionated Coconut Oil (FCO), were used. Objective: Based on previous studies, it can be hypothesized that fatty acids in coconut oil may have anticancer potential and may trigger cell death in cancer cell lines. Methods: Each cell line was treated with different concentrations of Virgin Coconut Oil (VCO), Processed Coconut Oil (PCO) and Fractionated Coconut Oil (FCO). The treated cells were assayed by MTT after 72 hr of incubation. The fatty acid composition of different coconut oils was analyzed by gas chromatography. Result: Different concentrations of coconut oils were used to treat the cells. Interestingly, the anticancer efficacy of VCO, PCO and FCO was not uniform, rather the efficacy varied from cell line to cell line. Only 20% VCO showed significant anticancer activity in HepG2 cells in comparison to 80% PCO against the KB cell line. Remarkably, 20% of PCO and 5% of FCO showed potential growth inhibition in the KB cell line as compared to 80% PCO in HepG2 cells. Moreover, there was a difference in the efficacy of VCO, PCO and FCO, which might be due to their fatty acid composition. Comparing the anticancer efficacy of VCO, PCO and FCO in this study helped to predict which class of fatty acids and which fatty acid might be associated with the anticancer activity of VCO. Conclusion: This study shows that VCO, PCO and FCO have anticancer efficacy and may be used for the treatment of cancer, especially liver and oral cancer.

Background: The growing unsatisfaction toward the available traditional chemotherapeutic agents enhanced the need to develop new methods for obtaining materials with more effective and safe anti-cancer properties. Over the past few years, usage of metallic nanoparticles has been a target for researchers of different scientific and commercial fields due to their tiny sizes, environment friendly properties and wide range applications. To overcome the obstacles of traditional physical and chemical methods for synthesis of such nanoparticles, a new less expensive and eco-friendly method has been adopted using natural existing organisms as a reducing agent to mediate synthesis of the desired metallic nanoparticles from their precursors, a process called green biosynthesis of nanoparticles. Objective: Here in the present study, zinc iron bimetallic nanoparticles (ZnFe2O4) were synthesized via an aqueous extract of Boswellia Carteri resin mixed with zinc acetate and iron chloride precursors, and they were tested for their anticancer activity. Methods: Various analytic methods were applied for the characterization of the Phyto synthesized ZnFe2O4 and they were tested for their anticancer activity against MDA-MB-231, K562, MCF-7 cancer cell lines and normal fibroblasts. Results: Our results demonstrate the synthesis of cubic structured bimetallic nanoparticles ZnFe2O4 with an average diameter 10.54 nm. MTT cytotoxicity assay demonstrate that our phyto-synthesized ZnFe2O4 nanoparticles exhibited a selective and potent anticancer activity against K562 and MDA-MB-231 cell lines with IC50 values 4.53 µM and 4.19 µM, respectively. Conclusion: In conclusion, our bio synthesized ZnFe2O4 nano particles show a promising environmentally friendly of low coast chemotherapeutic approach against selective cancers with a predicted low adverse side effect toward normal cells. Further in vivo advanced animal research should be done to execute their applicability in living organisms.

Background: After the milestone approval of imatinib, more than 25 antitumor agents targeting kinases have been approved, and several promising candidates are in various stages of clinical evaluation. Objectives : Due to the importance of thiazole scaffold in targeted anticancer drug discovery, the goal of this work is the design of new thiazolyl hydrazones as potent ABL1 kinase inhibitors for the management of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). Methods: New thiazolyl hydrazones (2a-p) were synthesized and investigated for their cytotoxic effects on K562 CML cell line. Compounds 2h, 2j and 2l showed potent anticancer activity against K562 cell line. The cytotoxic effects of these compounds on other leukemia (HL-60, MT-2 and Jurkat) and HeLa human cervical carcinoma cell lines were also investigated. Furthermore, their cytotoxic effects on mitogen-activated peripheral blood mononuclear cells (MA-PBMCs) were evaluated to determine their selectivity. Due to its selective and potent anticancer activity, compound 2j was benchmarked for its apoptosis-inducing potential on K562 cell line and inhibitory effects on eight different tyrosine kinases (TKs) including ABL1 kinase. In order to investigate the binding mode of compound 2j into the ATP binding site of ABL1 kinase (PDB: 1IEP), molecular docking study was conducted using MOE 2018.01 program. The QikProp module of Schrödinger’s Molecular modelling package was used to predict the pharmacokinetic properties of compounds 2a-p. Results: 4-(4-(Methylsulfonyl)phenyl)-2-[2-((1,3-benzodioxol-4-yl)methylene)hydrazinyl]thiazole (2j) showed antiproliferative activity against K562 cell line with an IC50 value of 8.87±1.93 µM similar to imatinib (IC50= 6.84±1.11 µM). Compound 2j was found to be more effective than imatinib on HL-60, Jurkat and MT-2 cells. Compound 2j also showed cytotoxic activity against HeLa cell line similar to imatinib. The higher selectivity index value of compound 2j than imatinib indicated that its antiproliferative activity was selective. Compound 2j also induced apoptosis in K562 cell line more than imatinib. Among eight TKs, compound 2j showed the strongest inhibitory activity against ABL1 kinase enzyme (IC50= 5.37±1.17 µM). According to molecular docking studies, compound 2j exhibited high affinity to the ATP binding site of ABL1 kinase forming significant intermolecular interactions. On the basis of in silico studies, this compound did not violate Lipinski's rule of five and Jorgensen's rule of three. Conclusion: Compound 2j stands out as a potential orally bioavailable ABL1 kinase inhibitor for the treatment of CML.
