Novel molecular discovery of promising amidine-based thiazole analogues as potent dual Matrix Metalloproteinase-2 and 9 inhibitors: Anticancer activity data with prominent cell cycle arrest and DNA fragmentation analysis effects
摘要:
Thiazole derivatives are known to possess various biological activities such as antiparasitic, antifungal, anti-microbial and antiproliferative activities. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are important protease target in-volved in tumor progression including angiogenesis, tissue invasion, and migration. Therefore, MMPs have also been reported as potential diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers in many types of cancer. Herein, new aryl thiazoles were synthesized and evaluated for their anticancer effects on a panel of cancer cell lines including the invasive MDA-MB-231 line. Some of these compounds showed IC50 values in the submicromolar range in anti -proliferative assays. In order to examine the relationship between their anticancer activity and MMPs targets, the compounds were evaluated for their inhibitory effects on MMP-2 and 9. That data obtained revealed that most of these compounds were potent dual MMP-2/9 inhibitors at nanomolar concentrations. Among these, 2-(1-(2-(2-((E)-4-iodobenzylidene)hydrazineyl)-4-methylthiazol-5-yl)ethylidene)hydrazine-1-carboximidamide (4a) was the most potent non-selective dual MMP-2/9 inhibitor with inhibitory concentrations of 56 and 38 nM re-spectively. When compound 4a was tested in an MDA-MB-231, HCT-116, MCF-7 model, it effectively inhibited tumor growth, strongly induced cancer cell apoptosis, inhibit cell migration, and suppressed cell cycle pro-gression leading to DNA fragmentation. Taken together, the results of our studies indicate that the newly dis-covered thiazole-based MMP-2/9 inhibitors have significant potential for anticancer treatment.

A series of novel 2-Amino-4-Methylthiazole analogs were developed via three-step reaction encompassing hydrazine-1-carboximidamide motif to combat Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacterial and fungal infections. Noticeably, the thiazole-carboximidamide derivatives 4a-d displayed excellent antimicrobial activity and the most efficacious analogue 4d with MIC/MBC values of 0.5 and 4 μg/mL, compared to
