SYNTHESIS AND ANTITUMOR ACTIVITY OF 2,5-BIS(3'-INDOLYL)-FURANS AND 3,5-BIS(3'-INDOLIY)-ISOXAZOLES, NORTOPSENTIN ANALOGUES
2010
Abstract A series of novel 2,5-bis(3′-indolyl)furans and 3,5-bis(3′-indolyl)isoxazoles were synthesized as antitumor agents. The antiproliferative activity was evaluated in vitro toward diverse human tumor cell lines. Initially 5 isoxazoles and 3 furan derivatives were tested against a panel of 10 human tumor cell lines and the most active derivatives 3c and 4a were selected to be evaluated in an extended panel of 29 cell lines. By exhibiting mean IC50 values of 17.4 μg/mL (3a) and 20.5 μg/mL (4c), in particular 4c showed a high level of tumor selectivity toward the 29 cell lines.
Pyrido[2’,3’:4,5]pyrrolo[2,1-d][1,2,3,5]tetrazine-4(3H)-ones, a new class of temozolomide heteroanalogues
2009
Twelve derivatives of new ring system pyrido[2’,3’:4,5]pyrrolo[2,1-d][1,2,3,5]tetrazine were prepared in good yields by reaction of 2-diazo-3-ethoxycarbonyl-pyrrolo[3,2-b]pyridine with alkyl- or aryl-isocyanates. Nine derivatives, screened by the National Cancer Institute (Bethesda, MD) for the in vitro one dose primary anticancer assay against a panel of about 60 human tumor cell lines, showed no significant activity.
Synthesis, antiproliferative activity and possible mechanism of action of novel 2-acetamidobenzamides bearing the 2-phenoxy functionality.
2015
Several new 2-(2-phenoxyacetamido)benzamides 17a-v, 21 and 22 were synthesized by stirring in pyridine the acid chlorides 16a-e and the appropriate5-R-4-R1-2-aminobenzamide 15a-e and initially evaluated in vitro for antiproliferative activity against the K562 (human chronic myelogenous leukemia) cell line. Some of synthesized compounds were evaluated for their in vitro antiproliferative activity against the full NCI tumor cell line panel derived from nine clinically isolated cancer types (leukemia, non-small cell lung, colon, CNS, melanoma, ovarian, renal, prostate and breast). The most active compounds caused an arrest of K562 cells in the G0-G1 phase of cell cycle and induction of apoptos…

New Tripentone Analogs with Antiproliferative Activity
2017
Tripentones represent an interesting class of compounds due to their significant cytotoxicity against different human tumor cells in the submicro-nanomolar range. New tripentone analogs, in which a pyridine moiety replaces the thiophene ring originating the fused azaindole system endowed with anticancer activity viz 8H-thieno[2,3-b]pyrrolizinones, were efficiently synthesized in four steps with fair overall yields (34–57%). All tripentone derivatives were tested in the range of 0.1–100 μM for cytotoxicity against two human tumor cell lines, HCT-116 (human colorectal carcinoma) and MCF-7 (human breast cancer). The most active derivative, with GI50 values of 4.25 µM and 20.73 µM for HCT-116 a…
Inhibición de complejos cdk/ciclina en modelos celulares de patología
2012
La proliferación celular descontrolada es el resultado de diversos mecanismos que conducen a un proceso patológico. Uno de ellos, es el desarrollo de aberraciones en cualquier punto de la maquinaria molecular que gobierna el ciclo celular y otro es la desregulación del receptor del factor de crecimiento epidérmico (EGFR). Los tratamientos tumorales convencionales han mejorado sin duda durante las últimas décadas, pero sigue siendo necesaria la búsqueda de nuevas estrategias terapéuticas. Las nuevas terapias están dirigiéndose hacia la inhibición simultanea de rutas proximales, puede favorecer la efectividad de los tratamientos antitumorales. En este trabajo de tesis presentamos los estudios…

The lignan, (-)-sesamin reveals cytotoxicity toward cancer cells: pharmacogenomic determination of genes associated with sensitivity or resistance.
2013
(-)-Sesamin is a lignan present in sesam oil and a number of medicinal plants. It exerts various pharmacological effects, such as prevention of hyperlipidemia, hypertension, and carcinogenesis. Moreover, (-)-sesamin has chemopreventive and anticancer activity in vitro and in vivo. Multidrug resistance (MDR) of tumors leads to fatal treatment outcome in many patients and novel drugs able to kill multidrug-resistant cells are urgently needed. P-glycoprotein (MDR1/ABCB1) is the best known ATP-binding cassette (ABC) drug transporter mediating MDR. ABCB5 is a close relative to ABCB1, which also mediates MDR. We found that the mRNA expressions of ABCB1 and ABCB5 were not related to the 50% inhibi…
