A series of new spiro-heterocycles engrafted spirooxindole/pyrrolidine/thiochromene scaffolds was synthesized by the three-component 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reactions in a fully controlled regio- and stereo-selective fashion. Condensation of several substituted isatin derivatives with L-proline generated the azomethine ylides which subsequently reacted with chalcones based thiochromene scaffold, and finally afforded the target spiro-compounds. This simple protocol furnished a structurally complex, biologically relevant spiro-heterocycles in good yields through a one-pot process. All synthesized chalcone-based thiochromene, along with the spirooxindole/pyrrolidine/thiochromene scaffolds, were tested for their anticancer activity against four cancer cell lines (PC3, HeLa, MCF-7, and MDA-MB231). Toxicity of these compounds was also evaluated against human fibroblast BJ cell line, and they appeared to be not cytotoxic. For the prostate cancer (PC3) cell line, the most active hybrid, among synthesized series, was compound (7f,IC50 = 8.7 ± 0.7 µM). The most potent spirooxindole/pyrrolidine/thiochromene hybrid against cervical (HeLa) cancer cells was compound (7k, IC50 = 8.4 ± 0.5 µM) having chlorine and p-trifluoromethyl substituents attached to phenyl rings. Finally, against the MCF-7 and MDA-MB231 breast cancer cell lines, compound (7d) was the most active member of this series (IC50 = 7.36 ± 0.37, and 9.44 ± 0.32 µM, respectively).

A new series of di-spirooxindole analogs, engrafted with oxindole and cyclohexanone moieties, were synthesized. Initially, azomethine ylides were generated via reaction of the substituted isatins 3a–f (isatin, 3a, 6-chloroisatin, 3b, 5-fluoroisatin, 3c, 5-nitroisatin, 3d, 5-methoxyisatin, 3e, and 5-methylisatin, 3f, and (2S)-octahydro-1H-indole-2-carboxylic acid 2, in situ azomethine ylides reacted with the cyclohexanone based-chalcone 1a–f to afford the target di-spirooxindole compounds 4a–n. This one-pot method provided diverse structurally complex molecules, with biologically relevant spirocycles in a good yields. All synthesized di-spirooxindole analogs, engrafted with oxindole and cyclohexanone moieties, were evaluated for their anticancer activity against four cancer cell lines, including prostate PC3, cervical HeLa, and breast (MCF-7, and MDA-MB231) cancer cell lines. The cytotoxicity of these di-spirooxindole analogs was also examined against human fibroblast BJ cell lines, and they appeared to be non-cytotoxic. Compound 4b was identified as the most active member of this series against prostate cancer cell line PC3 (IC50 = 3.7 ± 1.0 µM). The cyclohexanone engrafted di-spirooxindole analogs 4a and 4l (IC50 = 7.1 ± 0.2, and 7.2 ± 0.5 µM, respectively) were active against HeLa cancer cells, whereas NO2 substituted isatin ring and meta-fluoro-substituted (2E,6E)-2,6-dibenzylidenecyclohexanone containing 4i (IC50 = 7.63 ± 0.08 µM) appeared to be a promising agent against the triple negative breast cancer MDA-MB231 cell line. To explore the plausible mechanism of anticancer activity of di-spirooxindole analogs, molecular docking studies were investigated which suggested that spirooxindole analogs potentially inhibit the activity of MDM2.

Recent drug discovery efforts are highly focused towards identification, design, and synthesis of small molecules as anticancer agents. With this aim, we recently designed and synthesized novel compounds with high efficacy and specificity for the treatment of breast tumors. Based on the obtained results, we constructed a Volsurf+ (VS+) model using a dataset of 59 compounds able to predict the in vitro antitumor activity against MCF-7 cancer cell line for new derivatives. In the present paper, in order to further verify the robustness of this model, we report the results of the projection of more than 150 known molecules and 9 newly synthesized compounds. We predict their activity versus MCF-7 cell line and experimentally verify the in silico results for some promising chosen molecules in two human breast cell lines, MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231.

Sambiloto (Andrographis paniculata) banyak digunakan untuk mengobati berbagai penyakit di Indonesia dan negara-negara Asia lainnya. Dalam studi ini, ekstrak metanol dan etanol sambiloto yang diperoleh dari B2PTO Tawangmangu telah diuji terhadap sel lini kanker payudara T47D dan MCF-7 dan sel lini normal fibroblast HFL-1 menggunakan reaksi enzimatik 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazoyl-2-yl) 2,5-diphenyltetrazoliumbromide (MTT). Uji in vitro terhadap sel lini normal fibroblast HFL-1 menunjukkan bahwa 50 ppm ekstrak metanol sambiloto tidak menghambat pertumbuhan sel. Tetapi, ekstrak metanol dan etanolnya menghasilkan IC50 yang relatif rendah pada sel lini kanker payudara, yaitu 111 ppm dan 122 ppm pada sel lini MCF-7 dan 70 ppm dan 197 ppm pada sel lini T47D. Selain itu, campuran ekstrak sambiloto yang mengandung 25% ekstrak Thyponium divaricatum dan Anredera cordifolia memberikan daya hambat pertumbuhan pada sel kanker payudara MCF-7 yang lebih besar, dengan nilai IC50 masing-masing adalah 68 ppm dan 34 ppm. Kesimpulannya, total ekstrak metanol atau etanol sambiloto yang diperoleh dari Tawangmangu memiliki potensi sebagai sumber senyawa anti-kanker serta perlu kajian lebih lanjut.Kata kunci: Ekstrak Andrographis paniculata, MTT, sel lini normal, sel lini kanker, aktivitas anti kanker ABSTRACTSambiloto (Andrographis paniculata) is widely used as medicine to treat various diseases in Indonesia and other Asian countries. In this study, methanolic and ethanolic extracts of sambiloto collected from B2PTO Tawangmangu have been tested againts breast cancer cell lines of T47D and MCF-7 and normal fibroblast cell line of HFL-1 using enzymatic reaction of 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazoyl-2-yl) 2,5-diphenyltetrazoliumbromide (MTT). In vitro assay performed on normal fibroblast of HFL-1 cell line showed that 50 ppm of methanolic extract of sambiloto did not inhibit cell growth. However, methanolic and ethanolic extracts of sambiloto gave relatively low of IC50 on breast cancer cell lines which were 111 ppm and 122 ppm on the MCF-7 cell lines and 70 ppm and 197 ppm on the T47D cell lines, respectively. In addition, the mixture of sambiloto extract containing 25% of Thyponium divaricatum and Anredera cordifolia extracts confered greater growth inhibition on breast cancer cell line of MCF-7, where IC50 values were 68 ppm and 34 ppm, respectively. In conclusion, the total methanolic or ethanolic extract of sambiloto collected from Tawangmangu has potency as a source of anti-cancer compounds and needs further study.Key words: Andrographis paniculata extract, MTT, normal cell line, cancer cell lines, anti-cancer activity

Aims: Development of 1-[(1R, 2S)-2-fluorocyclopropyl]ciprofloxacin-1,2,4-triazole-5(4H)- thione hybrids as potential dual-acting mechanism anticancer agent to overcome the drug resistance. Background: Chemotherapy is an essential tool for the treatment of lung and female breast cancers, and numerous anticancer agents have been launched for this purpose. However, the clinical outcomes of chemotherapy are usually far from satisfactory due to the side effects and resistance to chemotherapeutic drugs. Thus, it is urgent to develop novel anti-lung and anti-breast cancer agents. Background: Chemotherapy is an essential tool for the treatment of lung and female breast cancers, and numerous anticancer agents have been launched for this purpose. However, the clinical outcomes of chemotherapy are usually far from satisfactory due to the side effects and resistance to chemotherapeutic drugs. Thus, it is urgent to develop novel anti-lung and anti-breast cancer agents. Objective: The primary objective of this study was to evaluate the potential of bis-isatin scaffolds with alkyl/ether linkers between the two isatin moieties against different human breast cancer cell lines including A549, MCF-7 and their drug-resistant counterparts A549/CDDP, MCF-7/ADM cells. Methods: The 1-[(1R, 2S)-2-fluorocyclopropyl]ciprofloxacin-(4-methyl/phenyl/benzyl-3-aryl)-1,2,4- triazole-5(4H)-thione hybrids were screened for their in vitro activity against drug-sensitive lung (A549), breast (MCF-7) and their drug-resistant counterparts A549/CDDP (cisplatin-resistant), MCF- 7/ADM (doxorubicin-resistant) cancer cell lines by MTT assay. The inhibitory activity of these hybrids against topoisomerase II and EGFR was also evaluated to investigate the potential mechanism of action of these hybrids. Result: The most prominent hybrid 7k (IC50: 37.28-49.05 µM) was comparable to Vorinostat against A549 and A549/CDDP lung cancer cells, and was 2.79-2.94 times more active than Vorinostat against MCF-7 and MCF-7/ADM breast cancer cell lines. Moreover, hybrid 7k (IC50: 8.6 and 16.4 µM) also demonstrated dual inhibition against topoisomerase II and EGFR. Conclusion: The 1-[(1R, 2S)-2-fluorocyclopropyl]ciprofloxacin-1,2,4-triazole-5(4H)-thione hybrids possess equally activity against both drug-sensitive cancer cells and their drug-resistant counterparts, and the majority of them were no inferior to the reference Vorinostat. The mechanistic study revealed that these hybrids could inhibit both topoisomerase II and EGFR, so these hybrids can be developed as dual-acting mechanism anticancer agents.

Background: Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer and the second leading cause of cancer deaths among Canadian women. Cancer management through changes in lifestyle, such as increased intake of foods rich in dietary flavonoids, have been shown to decrease the risk associated with breast, liver, colorectal, and upper-digestive cancers in epidemiologic studies. Onions are high in flavonoid content and one of the most common vegetables. Additionally, onions are used in most Canadian cuisines.Methods: We investigated the effect of five prominent Ontario grown onion (Stanley, Ruby Ring, LaSalle, Fortress, and Safrane) extracts on two subtypes of breast cancer cell lines: a triple negative breast cancer line MDA-MB-231 and an ER+ breast cancer line MCF-7.Results: These onion extracts elicited strong anti-proliferative, anti-migratory, and cytotoxic activities on both the cancer cell lines. Flavonoids present in these onion extracts induced apoptosis, cell cycle arrest in the G2/M phase, and a reduction in mitochondrial membrane potential at dose-dependent concentrations. Onion extracts were more effective against MDA-MB-231 compared to the MCF-7 cell line. Conclusion: In this study, we investigated the extracts synthesized from Ontario-grown onion varieties in inducing anti-migratory, cytostatic, and cytotoxic activities in two sub-types of human breast cancer cell lines. Anti-tumor activity of these extracts depends upon the varietal and can be formulated into nutraceuticals and functional foods for the wellbeing of cancer patients. Overall, the results suggest that onion extracts are a good source of flavonoids with anti-cancerous properties.Keywords: onion extracts; flavonoids; anti-proliferative; breast cancer; cytotoxic activity

The discovery for effective combinations of anticancer drugs for treatment for breast cancer is the actual problem in the experimental chemotherapy. In this paper we conducted a study of antitumor effect of the combination of sunitinib and bortezomib against MDA-MB-231 and SKBR-3 breast cancer cell lines in vitro. We found that bortezomib in non-toxic concentrations can potentiate the antitumor activity of sunitinib. MDA-MB-231 cell line has showed great sensitivity to the combination of bortezomib and sunitinib in vitro. Bortezomib and sunitinib caused reduced expression of receptor tyrosine kinases VEGFR1, VEGFR2, PDGFRa, PDGFRß and c-Kit on HER2- and HER2+ breast cancer cell lines

Background: Hybrid molecules furnished by merging two or more pharmacophores is an emerging concept in the field of medicinal chemistry and drug discovery. Currently, coumarin hybrids have attracted the keen attention of researchers to discover their therapeutic capability against cancer. Objective: The present study aimed to evaluate the in vitro antitumor activity of a new series of hybrid molecules containing coumarin and quinolinone moieties 4 and 5 against four cancer cell lines. Materials and Methods: A new series of hybrid molecules containing coumarin and quinolinone moieties, 4a-c and 5a-c, were synthesized and screened for their cytotoxicity against prostate PC-3, breast MCF-7, colon HCT- 116 and liver HepG2 cancer cell lines as well as normal breast Hs-371 T. Results: All the synthesized compounds were assessed for their in vitro antiproliferative activity against four cancer cell lines and several compounds were found to be active. Further in vitro cell cycle study of compounds 4a and 5a revealed MCF-7 cells arrest at G2 /M phase of the cell cycle profile and induction apoptosis at pre-G1 phase. The apoptosis-inducing activity was evidenced by up-regulation of Bax protein together with the downregulation of the expression of Bcl-2 protein. The mechanism of cytotoxic activity of compounds 4a and 5a correlated to its topoisomerase II inhibitory activity. Conclusion: Hybrid molecules containing coumarin and quinolinone moieties represents a scaffold for further optimization to obtain promising anticancer agents.

The Friedel–Crafts reaction between substituted indoles as nucleophiles with chalcones-based benzofuran and benzothiophene scaffolds was carried out by employing a highly efficient bimetallic iron–palladium catalyst system. This catalytic approach produced the desired bis-heteroaryl products with low catalyst loading, a simple procedure, and with acceptable yield. All synthesized indole scaffolds 3a–3s were initially evaluated for their cytotoxic effect against human fibroblast BJ cell lines and appeared to be non-cytotoxic. All non-cytotoxic compounds 3a–3s were then evaluated for their anticancer activities against cervical cancer HeLa, prostate cancer PC3, and breast cancer MCF-7 cell lines, in comparison to standard drug doxorubicin, with IC50 values 1.9 ± 0.4 µM, 0.9 ± 0.14 µM and 0.79 ± 0.05 µM, respectively, and appeared to be moderate to weak anticancer agents. Fluoro-substituted chalcone moiety-containing compounds, 3b appeared to be the most active member of the series against cervical HeLa (IC50 = 8.2 ± 0.2 µM) and breast MCF-7 cancer cell line (IC50 = 12.3 ± 0.04 µM), whereas 6-fluroindol-4-bromophenyl chalcone-containing compound 3e (IC50 = 7.8 ± 0.4 µM) appeared to be more active against PC3 prostate cancer cell line.
