Pyrazolo[4,3-e]tetrazolo[1,5-b][1,2,4]triazine Sulfonamides as Novel Potential Anticancer Agents: Cytotoxic and Genotoxic Activities In Vitro

In this paper, we present for the first time the evaluation of cytotoxicity and genotoxicity of de novo synthesized pyrazolo[4,3-e]tetrazolo[1,5-b][1,2,4]triazine sulfonamides MM129, MM130, and MM131 in human tumor cell lines: HeLa, HCT 116, PC-3, and BxPC-3. Cytotoxic and genotoxic properties of the tested compounds were estimated using the MTT assay, comet assay (alkaline and neutral version), and γ-H2AX immuno-staining. Examined sulfonamides exhibited strong anticancer properties towards tested cells in a very low concentration range (IC₅₀ = 0.17–1.15 μM) after 72 h exposure time. The results of the alkaline and neutral version of the comet assay following 24 h incubation of the cells with tested compounds demonstrated the capability of heterocycles to induce significant DNA damage in exposed cells. HCT 116 cells were the most sensitive to the genotoxic activity of novel tricyclic pyrazolo[4,3-e]tetrazolo[1,5-b][1,2,4]triazine sulfonamides in the neutral version of the comet assay. Immunocytochemical detection of γ-H2AX showed an increase in DNA DSBs level in the HCT 116 cell line, after 24 h incubation with all tested compounds, confirming the results obtained in the neutral comet assay. Among all investigated compounds, MM131 showed the strongest cytotoxic and genotoxic activity toward all tested cell types. In conclusion, our results suggest that MM129, MM130, and MM131 exhibit high cytotoxic and genotoxic potential in vitro, especially towards the colorectal cancer cell line HCT 116. However, further investigations and analyses are required for their future implementation in the field of medicine.

Synthesis of[1,2,4]Oxadiazolo[4,5-a]thiazolo[2,3-b]pyrimidin-9(10H)-ones via 1,3-Dipolar Cycloaddition of Nitrile Oxide to Thiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidin-3-one Derivatives

A new class of [1,2,4]oxadiazolo[4,5‐a]thiazolo[2,3‐b]pyrimidin‐9(10H)‐one was prepared in moderate yields by the reaction of nitrile oxide with 2‐arylmethylidene‐6,7‐dihydro‐5H‐thiazolo[3,2‐a]pyrimidin‐3‐one. The reaction site of dipolarphile is the C?N of thiazolo[3,2‐a]pyrimidin‐3‐one rather than the expected C?C of arylmethylidene. The structures of the products were characterized thoroughly by IR, elemental analysis, MS, and NMR analysis.

This study of the interaction system of binucleophilic 3-substituted 4-amino-4H-1,2,4-triazole-5-thiols and 3-phenyl-2-propynal made it possible to develop a new approach to synthesis of such isomeric classes as 7-benzylidene-[1,2,4]triazolo[3,4-b][1,3,4]thiadiazine and 8-phenyl-[1,2,4]triazolo[3,4-b][1,3,4]thiadiazepine. Among the 20 compounds studied in vitro against influenza A/Puerto Rico/8/34 (H1N1) virus, half of them demonstrated selectivity index (SI) of 10 or higher and one of them (4-((3-phenylprop-2-yn-1-yl)amino)-4H-1,2,4-triazole-3-thiol) possessed the highest (SI > 300). Docking results and values showed that the preferred interactant for our ligands was M2 proton channel of the influenza A virus. Protein-ligand interactions modeling showed that the aliphatic moiety of ligands could negatively regulate target activity level.

Synthesis and Antimicrobial,Anticancer and Anti-Oxidant Activities of Novel 2,3-Dihydropyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidine-4-one and Pyrrolo[2,1-b][1,3]benzothiazole Derivatives via Microwave-Assisted Synthesis

In our attempt towards the synthesis and development of effective antimicrobial, anticancer and antioxidant agents, a novel series of 2,3-dihydropyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4-one 7a–e and pyrrolo[2,1-b][1,3]benzothiazoles 9a–e were synthesized. The synthesis of 2-(1,3-benzo thiazol-2-yl)-3-(aryl)prop-2-enenitrile (5a–e) as the key intermediate was accomplished by a microwave efficient method. Via a new variety oriented synthetic microwave pathway, these highly functionalized building blocks allowed access to numerous fused heteroaromatic such as 7-amino-6-(1,3-benzo thiazol-2-yl)-5-(aryl)-2-thioxo-2,3dihydropyrido [2,3-d]pyrimidin-4(1H)-one 7a–e and 1-amino-2-(aryl)pyrrolo[2,1-b][1,3]benzothiazole-3-carbonitrile derivatives 9a–e in order to study their antimicrobial and anticancer activity. The present investigation offers effective and rapid new procedures for the synthesis of the newly polycondensed heterocyclic ring systems. All the newly synthesized compounds were evaluated for antimicrobial, anticancer and antioxidant activity. Compounds 7a,d, and 9a,d showed higher antimicrobial activity than cefotaxime and fluconazole while the remaining compounds exhibited good to moderate activity against bacteria and fungi. An anticancer evaluation of the newly synthesized compounds against the three tumor cell lines (lung cell NCI-H460, liver cancer HepG2 and colon cancer HCT-116) exhibited that compounds 7a, d, and 9a,d have higher cytotoxicity against the three human cell lines compared to doxorubicin as a reference drug. These compounds also exhibited higher antioxidant activity and a great ability to protect DNA from damage induced by bleomycin.
