Some benzylidenehydrazides (3a-e) have been synthesized in three reaction steps from anthranilic acid in good yields, about 70% - 99%. The structures of the synthesized compounds were analyzed using spectroscopic methods. The compounds were evaluated its activity against human lung cancer, A549 cell line by MTT method and studied its molecular docking onto the protein tyrosine kinase (PDB ID: 1M17) by using Molegro® vs. 5.5. The data showed that N-(2-(2-(4-nitrobenzylidene)hydrazinecarbonyl)phenyl)benzamide (3d) which synthesized in 70% yield and has the highest activity on inhibiting the growth of A549 cell line with IC50 10.9μg/mL, which was linier with our in silico study. Compound 3d has the smallest RS value -94.44 kcal/mol, lower than selected Ligand, Erlotinib.

Angiotensin Converting Enzyme Inhibitor (ACEI) and Angiotensin II type 1 receptor antagonist (ARBs) are the most efficient cardiovascular drugs and exhibited efficient cytostatic activity in vitro in many malignant and normal cells1.OBJECTIVE: This study aims to assess the anticancer activity of these two drugs in a dose dependant manner using A549 cell line through MTT assay and Cell cycle analysis.. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Ramipril and Olmesartan were added to A549 at various concentrations ranging from 10⁻⁶ to 10mM.The dot plot of the cytotoxicity results were used to extrapolate the IC50 values. The dot plot of flow cytometry results were used to extrapolate the DNA percentage in phases of cell cycle. The plates were read at 570 nm by using a PERCLIN ELMER (multimode reader). Measurements for concentration required for 50% inhibition was noted. RESULTS: Ramipril and Olmesartan were added to A549 at various concentrations ranging from 10⁻⁶ to 10mM.The dot plot of the cytotoxicity results were used to extrapolate the IC50 values. The dot plot of flow cytometry results were used to extrapolate the DNA percentage in phases of cell cycle.

Abstract Cannabis sativa is widely used for medical purposes and has anti-inflammatory activity. The purpose of this study was to examine the anti-inflammatory activity of cannabis on markers of immune responses associated with Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) inflammation. An extract fraction from C. sativa Arbel strain (FCBD) substantially reduced dose dependently interleukin (IL) 6 and 8 levels in an alveolar epithelial (A549) cell line. FCBD contained cannabidiol (CBD), cannabigerol (CBG) and tetrahydrocannabivarin (THCV), and multiple terpenes. Treatments with FCBD and phytocannabinoid standards that compose FCBD (FCBD:std) reduced IL-6, IL-8, C-C Motif Chemokine Ligands (CCLs) 2 and 7, and angiotensin I converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) expression in the A549 cell line. Treatment with FCBD induced macrophages (differentiated KG1 cell line) polarization and phagocytosis in vitro, and increased CD36 and type II receptor for the Fc region of IgG (FcγRII) expression. FCBD treatment also substantially increased IL-6 and IL-8 expression in macrophages. FCBD:std, while maintaining the anti-inflammatory activity in alveolar epithelial cells, led to reduced phagocytosis and pro-inflammatory IL secretion in macrophages in comparison to FCBD. The phytocannabinoid mixture may show superior activity versus cannabis fraction for reduction of lung inflammation, yet there is a need of caution in proposing cannabis as treatment for COVID-19.
