Novel N-4-piperazinyl-ciprofloxacin-chalcone hybrids: Synthesis, physicochemical properties, anticancer and topoisomerase I and II inhibitory activity
摘要:
A group of novel N-4-piperazinyl-ciprofloxacin-chalcone hybrids was prepared. One-dose anticancer test results indicated that compounds 3a and 3g exhibited the highest ability to inhibit the proliferation of different cancer cell lines. Compound 3a exhibited a broad-spectrum of anti-tumor activity without pronounced selectivity while compound 3g revealed high selectivity toward the leukemia subpanel with selectivity ratio of 6.71 at GI(50) level. Moreover, compounds 3e and 3j have shown remarkable topo II inhibitory activity compared to etoposide at 100 gI A and 20 mu M concentrations. Compounds 3e and 3j exhibited comparably potent topo I inhibitory activity at 20 RM concentration compared to camptothecin. Compounds 3e and 3j exhibited strong topo II inhibitory activities compared to topo I at 20 laM concentration. Studying of the solubility and partition coefficient revealed higher lipophilicity of the hybrids 3a j compared to the parent ciprofloxacin. (C) 2013 Elsevier Masson SAS. All rights reserved.

A series of chalcone derivatives (1a–2i) were designed based on isoliquiritigenin (the most active natural chalcone non-competitive neuraminidase (NA) inhibitor). Molecular modeling studies revealed that isoliquiritigenin and its designed analogs occupied 430-loop cavity of NA and interacted favorably with catalytic site residues. The favorable derivatives were synthesized and evaluated for cytotoxicity

Chalcones containing amino or acetamide groups on ring A and electron donating/withdrawing groups on ring B have been shown to have great cytotoxic potential against human cancer cell lines. In this work, a series of twenty chalcones, including nine 1-(4′-aminophenyl)-3-(substituted aryl)-2-propen-1-ones (1–9), nine 1-(4′-acetamidophenyl)-3-(substituted aryl)-2-propen-1-ones (1a–9a), and two 1-(3′
In an attempt to explore novel and more potent antileishmanial compounds to diversify the current inhibitors, we pursued a medicinal chemistry-driven strategy to synthesize novel scaffolds with common pharmacophoric features of dihydropyrimidine and chalcone as current investigational antileishmanial compounds. Based on the reported X-ray structure of Pteridine reductase 1 (PTR1) from Leishmania major

The action of anxiolytic compounds that act on selective serotonin receptors (SSRIs) have been scarcely evaluated. Serotonergic drugs have been shown to be effective in treating anxiety without presenting adverse effects as benzodiazepines. However, the anxiolytic effects take days to occur. This study aimed to evaluate the anxiolytic effect of the synthetic chalcone, 4'-[(2E)-3-(3-nitrophenyl)-1-(phenyl) prop-2-en-1-one] acetamide (PAAMNBA), and its possible mechanism of action in adult zebrafish (Danio rerio). PAAMNBA was synthesized with a yield of 51.3% and its chemical structure was determined by H-1 and C-13 NMR. Initially, PAAPMNBA was intraperitoneally administered to zebrafish (n = 6/group) at doses of 4,12, or 40 mg/kg, and the animals were subsequently subjected to acute and open field toxicity tests. PAAMNBA was administered to the other groups (n = 6/group) for analyzing its effect in the light and dark test. The involvement of the serotonergic (5HT) system was also evaluated using 5-HTR 1, 5-HTR 2A/2C, and 5-HTR 3A/36 receptor antagonists, namely, pizotifeo, granizetron, and ciproeptadina, respectively. Molecular coupling was performed using the 5-HT1 receptor. PAAMNBA was found to be nontoxic, reduced the locomotor activity, and had an anxiolytic effect in adult zebrafish. The effect was reduced by pretreatment with pizotifene and was not reversed by treatment with granizetron and cyproeptadine. A previous in vivo molecular coupling study indicated that chalcones interact with the 5-HT1 receptor. The results suggested that the chalcone, PAAPMNBA, has anxiolytic activity, that is mediated by the serotonergic system via the 5-HT1 receptor. The interaction of PAAPMNBA with the 5-HT1 receptor was confirmed by molecular docking studies. (C) 2020 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
