Design, synthesis, and biological evaluation of a new class of benzo[b]furan derivatives as antiproliferative agents, with in silico predicted antitu…
2018
A new series of 3-benzoylamino-5-(1H-imidazol-4-yl)methylaminobenzo[b]furans were synthesized and screened as antitumor agents. As a general trend, tested compounds showed concentration-dependent antiproliferative activity against HeLa and MCF-7 cancer cell lines, exhibiting GI50 values in the low micromolar range. In most cases, insertion of a methyl substituent on the imidazole moiety improved the antiproliferative activity. Therefore, methyl-imidazolyl-benzo[b]furans compounds were tested in cell cycle perturbation experiments, producing cell cycle arrest with proapoptotic effects. Their core similarity to known colchicine binding site binders led us to further study the structure featur…
Synthesis of substituted 3-amino-N-phenyl-1H-indazole-1-carboxamides endowed with antiproliferative activity
2010
Abstract Several new N-phenyl-1H-indazole-1-carboxamides 1c–h and 4l,m were prepared by reacting phenyl isocyanate derivatives 3a,b with 3-amino-1H-indazole derivatives 2c,e,g or 1H-indazole 2l respectively. Chemical transformations of compounds 1a,b and 1g,h gave 3-acetamido-N-phenyl-1H-indazole-1-carboxamide derivatives 5a,b, and 3,5-diamino-N-phenyl-1H-indazole-1-carboxamide derivatives 4i, j respectively. Finally, 3,5-diacetamido-N-phenyl-1H-indazole-1-carboxamide derivatives 6a,b were prepared by acetylation of 4i, j. Some of synthesized compounds were evaluated for their in vitro antiproliferative activity against the full NCI tumor cell lines panel derived from nine clinically isolat…
Antiproliferative agents that interfere with the cell cycle at the G(1)-->S transition: further development and characterization of a small library o…
2008
In this continuation of our research on derivatives containing the stilbene privileged structure or that are derived from it, we report the results of further studies carried out on the previously initiated collection of compounds. We used a parallel synthetic approach to rapidly obtain small sets of compounds and started the annotation of the library in progress by calculating some physicochemical properties to be eventually correlated with biological activities. A pharmacophore for the antiproliferative activity was also built to summarize the features of the library. We evaluated the antiproliferative and pro-apoptotic activities of all compounds as well as the cell-cycle effects of some…
Real world safety and efficacy of the Janus Tacrolimus-Eluting stent: long-term clinical outcome and angiographic findings from the Tacrolimus-Elutin…
2009
Objectives: We sought to evaluate the safety and performance of the Janus Tacrolimus-Eluting stent (TES) in an unselected population of patients, without application of restrictive clinical or angiographic criteria. Background: Continued attention to the safety, efficacy, and deliverability of first-generation drug eluting stents has led to the development of new antiproliferative agents with alternative stent platforms and different drug carrier vehicles. Methods: The TEST (Tacrolimus Eluting STent) registry is a prospective, nonrandomized single-center registry in which 140 consecutive patients who underwent single- or multi-vessel percutaneous coronary intervention between February 2005 …
Synthesis of novel antimitotic agents based on 2-amino-3-aroyl-5-(hetero)arylethynyl thiophene derivatives
2011
Microtubules are dynamic structures that play a crucial role in cellular division and are recognized as an important target for cancer therapy. In search of new compounds with strong antiproliferative activity and simple molecular structure, a new series of 2-amino-3-(3',4',5'-trimethoxybenzoyl)-5-(hetero)aryl ethynyl thiophene derivatives was prepared by the Sonogashira coupling reaction of the corresponding 5-bromothiophenes with several (hetero)aryl acetylenes. When these compounds were analyzed in vitro for their inhibition of cell proliferation, the 2- and 3-thiophenyl acetylene derivatives were the most powerful compounds, both of which exerted cytostatic effects at submicromolar conc…
