Microsatellite instability (MSI), tumor mutation burden (TMB), and programmed cell death ligand-1 (PD-L1) are particularly known as immunotherapy predictive biomarkers. MSI and TMB are closely related to DNA mismatch repair (MMR) pathway functionality, while the PD-L1 checkpoint mediates cancer cell evasion from immune surveillance via the PD-L1/PD-1 axis. Among all the novel triazolo[3,4-b]thiadiazole derivatives, the compound KA39 emerged as the most potent anticancer agent. In the present study, potential alterations in MSI, TMB, and/or PD-L1 expression upon cell treatment with KA39 are explored. We tested three MMR-deficient (DLD-1, LS174T, and DU-145) and two MMR-proficient (HT-29 and PC-3) human cancer cell lines. Our findings support KA39-induced PD-L1 overexpression in all cancer cell lines, although the most outstanding increase was observed in MMR-proficient HT-29 cells. MSI analysis showed that KA39 affects the MMR system, impairing its recognition or repair activity, particularly in MMR-deficient DLD-1 and DU-145 cells, enhancing oligonucleotide production. There were no remarkable alterations in the TMB between untreated and treated cells, indicating that KA39 does not belong to mutagenic agents. Taking together the significant in vitro anticancer activity with PD-L1 upregulation and MSI increase, KA39 should be investigated further for its implication in chemo-immunotherapy of cancer.

Isoxazole Derivatives

A new series of 3-(3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl)-5-(2-(5-arylbenzo[b]thiophen-3-yl)oxa zol-5- yl)isoxazole derivatives were designed and synthesized. All these derivatives were evaluated for their anticancer activity against various human cancer cell lines such as MCF-7 (breast cancer), A549 (lung cancer), DU-145 (prostate cancer) and MDA MB-231 (breast cancer)-four human cancer cell lines by using MTT assay. Here, etoposide was used as a standard reference drug and most of the compounds were exhibited good anticancer activity with respect to cell lines. Among all compounds, five compounds 11b, 11c, 11f, 11i and 11j showed more potent activity than standard drug, in which, compound 11f was the most promising compound.

Background: Natural naphthoquinones have shown diversified biological activities including antibacterial, antifungal, antimalarial, and cytotoxic activities. However, they are also compounds with acute cytotoxicity, immunotoxicity, carcinogenesis, and cardio- and hepatotoxicity, then the modification at their redox center is an interesting strategy to overcome such harmful activity. Objective: In this study, four novel semisynthetic hydrazones, derived from the isomers α- and β-lapachones (α and β, respectively) and coupled with the drugs hydralazine (HDZ) and isoniazid (ACIL), were prepared, evaluated by electrochemical methods and assayed for anticancer activity. Method: The semisynthetic hydrazones were obtained and had their molecular structures established by NMR, IR, and MS. Anticancer activity was evaluated by cell viability determined by reduction of 3-(4,5-dimethyl-2-thiazol)-2,5-diphenyl-2H-tetrazolium bromide (MTT). The electrochemical studies, mainly cyclic voltammetry, were performed, in aprotic and protic media. Result: The study showed that the compounds 2, 3, and 4 were active against at least one of the cancer cell lines evaluated, being compounds 3 and 4 the most cytotoxic. Toward HL-60 cells, compound 3 was 20x more active than β-lapachone, and 3x more cytotoxic than doxorubicin. Furthermore, 3 showed an SI value of 39.62 for HL-60 cells. Compound 4 was active against all cancer cells tested, with IC50 values in the range 2.90–12.40 μM. Electrochemical studies revealed a profile typical of self-protonation and reductive cleavage, dependent on the supporting electrolyte. Conclusion: These results therefore indicate that compounds 3 and 4 are strong candidates as prototypes of new antineoplastic drugs.

<P>Background: Breast cancer and human colon cancer are the most common types of cancer in females and males, respectively. Breast cancer is the most common type of cancer after lung and colon cancers. Natural products are an important source for drug discovery. Boesenbergia rotunda (L.) Mansf. is commonly known as finger root, belonging to the Zingiberaceae family. </P><P> Objective: The aim of this study to isolate some natural compounds from the rhizomes of B. rotunda (L.) Mansf., and to investigate their cytotoxicity against the human triple-negative breast cancer cell (MDA-MB-231) and HT-29 colon cancer cell lines. </P><P> Methods: The dried rhizomes of B. rotunda were extracted with methanol. The methanolic extract was further used for solvent-solvent extraction. Bioassay-guided extraction and isolation of the rhizomes of the B. rotunda exhibited cytotoxic properties of hexane and dichloromethane fractions. </P><P> Results: Six major chemical constituents, pinostrobin (1), pinostrobin chalcone (2), cardamonin (3), 4,5-dihydrokawain (4), pinocembrin (5), and alpinetin (6) were isolated from the rhizomes of the B. rotunda. All the chemical constituents were screened against the human triple-negative breast cancer cell (MDA-MB-231) and HT-29 colon cancer cell lines. The compound cardamonin (3) (IC50 = 5.62&#177;0.61 and 4.44&#177;0.66 &#181;g/mL) and pinostrobin chalcone (2), (IC50 = 20.42&#177;2.23 and 22.51&#177;0.42 μg/mL) were found to be potent natural cytotoxic compounds against MDA-MB-231 and HT-29 colon cancer cell lines, respectively. </P><P> Conclusion: Cardamonin (3) and pinostrobin chalcone (2) were found to be the most potential natural compounds against breast cancer cell line MDA-MB-231 and colon cancer HT-29 cell line.</P>

Novel Method

A variety of novel thiazolidine derivatives (2-thioxothiazolidin-4-one and thiazolidine-2, 4-dione derivatives) have been prepared by using 2,4-diphenyl-2 H-chromene-3-carbaldehyde and its derivatives as starting materials. This is the first example of the preparation of thiazolidine derivatives through this novel method. Structure evolution of the resulting thiazolidine derivatives leads to anticancer agents. Our preliminary data for some model compounds on three cancer cell lines (MCF7, A549 and B-16) suggested reasonable anticancer activity against the A549 and B-16 cell lines, with IC50 values of 20.7 and 20.4 μM, respectively. This method is operationally simple and works with a diverse range of substrates.
