Structure−Activity Requirements for Flavone Cytotoxicity and Binding to Tubulin
摘要:
A series of 79 flavones related to centaureidin (3,6,4'-trimethoxy-5,7,3'-trihydroxyflavone 1) was screened for cytotoxicity in the NCI in vitro 60-cell line human tumor screen. The resulting cytotoxicity profiles of these flavones were compared for degree of similarity to the profile of 1. Selected compounds were further evaluated with in vitro assays of tubulin polymerization and [H-3]colchicine binding to tubulin. Maximum potencies for tubulin interaction and production of differential cytotoxicity profiles characteristic of 1 were observed only with compounds containing hydroxyl substituents at C-3' and C-5 and methoxyl groups at C-3 and C-4'.

4'-Hydroxy-3-methoxyflavones are natural compounds with known antiviral activities against picornaviruses such as poliomyelitis and rhinoviruses. In order to establish a structure-activity relationship a series of analogues were synthesized, and their antiviral activities and cytotoxicities were compared with those of flavones from natural origin. The 4'-hydroxyl and 3-methoxyl groups, a substitution in the 5 position and a polysubstituted A ring appeared to be essential requirements for a high activity. The most interesting compound was 4',7-dihydroxy-3-methoxy-5,6-dimethylflavone possessing in vitro TI99 values of > 1000 and > 200 against poliovirus type 1 and rhinovirus type 15, respectively. This compound was also active against other rhinovirus serotypes (2, 9, 14, 29, 39, 41, 59, 63, 70, 85, and 89) tested, having MIC50 values ranging from 0.016 to 0.5-mu-g/mL. Finally in contrast to quercetin it showed to be not mutagenic in concentrations up to 2.5 mg in the Ames test.
