A series of N-mustard-quinoline conjugates bearing a urea or hydrazinecarboxamide linker was synthesized for antitumor evaluation. The in vitro cytotoxicity studies revealed that compounds with hydrazinecarboxamide linkers were generally more cytotoxic than the corresponding urea counterparts in inhibiting human lymphoblastic leukemia and various solid tumor cell growths in culture. The therapeutic efficacy against human tumor xenografts in animal model was studied. It was shown that complete tumor remission in nude mice bearing human breast carcinoma MX-1 xenograft by 17a, i and 18c, d was achieved. In the present study, it was revealed that both linkers are able to lower the chemically reactive N-mustard pharmacophore and thus the newly synthesized conjugates possess a long half-life in rat plasma. Moreover, the new N-mustard derivatives are able to induce DNA cross-linking either by modified comet assay or by alkaline agarose gel shift assay. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
Quinoline-based fluorescent probe for ratiometric detection of hydrogen peroxide in aqueous solution
A novel quinoline-based fluorescent probe for detecting H2O2 is described. In aqueous solution, the probe exhibits fluorescence emission at 542 nm originating from the monocationic species. The reaction between the probe and H2O2 causes quenching of the emission at 542 nm and simultaneously yields a significant hypsochromic shift of the emission maximum to 480 nm due to the H2O2-triggered boronate cleavage process. Thus, a single-excitation, dual-emission ratiometric measurement with a large blue shift in emission (Delta lambda = 62 nm) and remarkable changes in the ratio (F-480 (nm)/F-542 (nm)) Of the emission intensity (R/R-0 up to 8.3-fold) can be established. Moreover, the probe can also afford high selectivity for detecting H2O2 over other biological reactive oxygen species. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
