A series of novel 3,6-disubstituted pyridazine derivatives was designed, synthesized, and biologically evaluated as preclinical anticancer candidates. Compound 9e exhibited the highest growth inhibition against most of the NCI-60 cancer cell lines. The in vivo anticancer activity of 9e was subsequently investigated at two dose levels using the Ehrlich ascites carcinoma solid tumor animal model where a reduction in the mean tumor volume allied with necrosis induction was reported, without any signs of toxicity in the treated groups. Interestingly, compound 9e was capable of downregulating c-jun N-terminal kinase-1 (JNK1) gene expression and curbing the protein levels of its phosphorylated form, …


Design, Synthesis, And Anti-Mcf-7 Activity Of New Thieno[2,3-D]Pyrimidinone Derivatives As Potential Breast Cancer Treatment, Bassem H. Naguib, Amgad Albohy, Mostafa A. Abdelaziz, Hanan H. Kadry Jan 2024

Design, Synthesis, And Anti-Mcf-7 Activity Of New Thieno[2,3-D]Pyrimidinone Derivatives As Potential Breast Cancer Treatment, Bassem H. Naguib, Amgad Albohy, Mostafa A. Abdelaziz, Hanan H. Kadry

Breast cancer is one of the top leading causes of death and the most aggressive type of cancer in women. Resistance to chemotherapy is one of the challenges associated with the development of strategies for the treatment of breast cancer. One way to overcome this issue is to design new agents that target breast cancer cell lines such as MCF-7. In this study, a new series of S-alkylated thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4-ones bearing carboxamide or ketonic scaffolds was synthesized and screened for their cytotoxicity against MCF-7 breast cell lines. Among synthesized candidates, 6d exhibited more potent cytotoxicity against MCF-7 cell lines with IC50 …


'Induction Of Apoptosis, Cytotoxicity And Radiosensitization By Novel 3,4-Dihydroquinazolinone Derivatives, Eman Ramadan, Amira Khalil Jan 2021

'Induction Of Apoptosis, Cytotoxicity And Radiosensitization By Novel 3,4-Dihydroquinazolinone Derivatives, Eman Ramadan, Amira Khalil

Pharmacy

Twenty new quinazolinone derivatives bearing a piperonyl moiety were designed and synthesized. The structures of the target compounds were in agreement with the microanalytical and spectral data. Compounds 4-10, 13, 14 and 17-27 were screened for their cytotoxic activity against HepG-2 and MCF-7 cancer cell lines. The target compounds showed IC50 in the range of 2.46-36.85 µM and 3.87-88.93 µM for HepG-2 and MCF-7, respectively. The promising compounds 7, 19, 26 and 27 were selected to measure their EGFR inhibitory activity. The IC50 values of the promising compounds were in the range of 146.9-1032.7 nM for EGFR in …
