- Chalcone-Supported Cardiac Mesoderm Induction in Human Pluripotent Stem Cells for Heart Muscle Engineering
-
Human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) hold great promise for applications in cell therapy and drug screening in the cardiovascular field. Bone morphogenetic protein 4 (BMP4) is key for early cardiac mesoderm induction in hPSC and subsequent cardiomyocyte derivation. Small-molecular BMP4 mimetics may help to standardize cardiomyocyte derivation from hPSCs. Based on observations that chalcones can stimulate BMP4 signaling pathways, we hypothesized their utility in cardiac mesoderm induction. To test this, we set up a two-tiered screening strategy, (1) for directed differentiation of hPSCs with commercially available chalcones (4’-hydroxychalcone [4’HC] and Isoliquiritigen) and 24 newly synthesized chalcone derivatives, and (2) a functional screen to assess the propensity of the obtained cardiomyocytes to self-organize into contractile engineered human myocardium (EHM). We identified 4’HC, 4-fluoro-4’-methoxychalcone, and 4-fluoro-4’-hydroxychalcone as similarly effective in cardiac mesoderm induction, but only 4’HC as an effective replacement for BMP4 in the derivation of contractile EHM-forming cardiomyocytes.

- ADME properties, bioactivity and molecular docking studies of 4-amino-chalcone derivatives: new analogues for the treatment of Alzheimer, glaucoma and epileptic diseases
-
In this study, in vitro inhibition effects of (E)-1-(4-aminophenyl)-3-(aryl) prop-2-en-1-one (4-amino-chalcones) derivatives (3a–o) on acetylcholinesterase (AChE) enzyme and human erythrocyte carbonic anhydrase I and II isoenzymes (hCA I- II) were investigated. And also, the biological activities of 4-amino-chalcone derivatives against enzymes which names are acetylcholinesterase (PDB ID: 1OCE), human Carbonic Anhydrase I (PDB ID: 2CAB), human carbonic anhydrase II (PDB ID: 3DC3), were compared. After the results obtained, ADME/T analysis was performed in order to use 4-amino-chalcone derivatives as a drug in the future. Effective inhibitors of carbonic anhydrase I and II isozymes (hCAI and II) and acetylcholinesterase (AChE) enzymes with Ki values in the range of 2.55 ± 0.35–11.75 ± 3.57?nM for hCA I, 4.31 ± 0.78–17.55 ± 5.86?nM for hCA II and 96.01 ± 25.34–1411.41 ± 32.88?nM for AChE, respectively, were the 4-amino-chalcone derivatives (3a–o) molecules.

Abstract: The title compounds,3,3′,3″,3′′′-[methylenebis(oxybenzene-5,1,3-triyl)]tetrakis(6,8-diaryl[1,2,4]triazolo[3,4-b][1,3,4]thiadiazepines), were synthesized startingfrom dimethyl 4-hydroxyisophthalate which was reacted with dibromomethane toobtain tetramethyl 5,5′-[methylenebis(oxy)]di(benzene-1,3-dicarboxylate). Thelatter was treated with excess hydrazine hydrate, and the resultingtetrahydrazide was converted to tetrakis-1,2,4-triazolyl derivative viacyclization with ethanolic potassium hydroxide, carbon disulfide, and hydrazinehydrate. In the final stage, cyclocondensation with substituted chalconesafforded the target products. The structure of the newly synthesized compoundswas confirmed by elemental analyses and FT-IR and NMR spectra, and theirantimicrobial activities against some bacterial and fungal strains wereestimated by the disc diffusion method.

- Antiproliferative effects of chalcones on T cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia-derived cells: Role of PKCβ
-
In this study, a series of 20 chalcone derivatives was synthesized, and their antiproliferative activity was tested against the human T cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia-derived cell line, CCRF-CEM. On the basis of the structural features of the most active compounds, a new library of chalcone derivatives, according to the structure–activity relationship design, was synthesized, and their antiproliferative activity was tested against the same cancer cell line. Furthermore, four of these derivatives (compounds 3, 4, 8, 28), based on lower IC50 values (between 6.1 and 8.9 μM), were selected for further investigation regarding the modulation of the protein expression of RACK1 (receptor for activated C kinase), protein kinase C (PKC)α and PKCβ, and their action on the cell cycle level. The cell cycle analysis indicated a block in the G0/G1 phase for all four compounds, with a statistically significant decrease in the percentage of cells in the S phase, with no indication of apoptosis (sub-G0/G1 phase). Compounds 4 and 8 showed a statistically significant reduction in the expression of PKCα and an increase in PKCβ, which together with the demonstration of an antiproliferative role of PKCβ, as assessed by treating cells with a selective PKCβ activator, indicated that the observed antiproliferative effect is likely to be mediated through PKCβ induction.

- Synthesis, Antiproliferative and Cytotoxic Activities, DNA Binding Features and Molecular Docking Study of Novel Enamine Derivatives
-
Novel enamine derivatives were synthesized from the reaction of lactone and chalcones and their antiproliferative and cytotoxic activities against six cancer cell lines (e. g., HeLa, HT29, A549, MCF7, PC3 and Hep3B) and one normal cell lines (e. g., FL) were investigated along with their mode of interactions with CT-DNA. Most of the enamine derivatives with IC50 values of 86–168 μM demonstrated much stronger antiproliferative activity than the starting molecules against the cancer cells. While, among the enamine derivatives, four compounds displayed higher cytotoxic potency than the control drugs (5-fluorouracil and cisplatin) against the Hep3B cell lines, these compounds did not exhibit any significant toxicity against normal cells, FL. The UV/VIS spectral data suggest that eight compounds cause hypochromism with a slight bathochromic shift (~6 nm), indicating that they bind to the DNA by way of an intercalative or minor groove binding mode. The binding constants of the compounds are in the range of 0.1×103 M?1–2.3×104 M?1. The antiproliferative activity of studied enamine derivatives could possibly be due to their DNA binding as well as their cytotoxic properties. In addition to these assays, the chalcones and enamine derivatives were investigated by molecular docking to calculate the synergistic effect of antiproliferative activities against six human cancer cell lines.

- Catalyst-free three-component synthesis of highly functionalized 2,3-dihydropyrroles
-
An efficient synthesis of fully substituted 2,3-dihydropyrroles has been achieved in one step through the three-component reaction of amines, aromatic aldehydes and α-ketoamides. This atom-economical and catalyst-free reaction is highly stereoselective and generates underexplored heterocycles in a single step. These compounds were examined in an enzymatic assay that led to the identification of potent α-glucosidase inhibitors, thereby demonstrating the utility of this novel methodology in medicinal chemistry.

-
Abstract: 1,3,5-triaryl-2-pyrazoline derivatives were synthesised by a condensation reaction between chalcones and phenyl hydrazine using cerium chloride heptahydrate as a catalyst. All these reactions were carried out in ethyl lactate (70%) as a green solvent. Easy and efficient work up, recyclability of solvent and catalyst are the key merits of this protocol. Graphical Abstract:: SYNOPSIS A facile protocol for the synthesis of 1,3,5-triaryl-2-pyrazolines is described. The solvent ethyl lactate, obtained from renewable sources, is biodegradable. The catalyst CeCl 3· 7 H 2O is a water-tolerant Lewis acid with low toxicity. Easy and clean work up, recyclable solvent and catalyst are merits of the protocol. The reaction works well for all systems giving good yields of the desired products.[Figure not available: see fulltext.].

- Synthesis, cyclooxygenase inhibition and anti-inflammatory evaluation of new 1,3,5-triaryl-4,5-dihydro-1H-pyrazole derivatives possessing methanesulphonyl pharmacophore
-
A new series of 1,3,5-triaryl-4,5-dihydro-1H-pyrazole derivatives 13a–p were synthesized via aldol condensation of 3/4-nitroacetophenones with appropriately substituted aldehydes followed by cyclization of the formed chalcones with 4-methanesulfonylphenylhydrazine hydrochloride. All the synthesized compounds were evaluated for their cyclooxygenase (COX) inhibition, anti-inflammatory activity and ulcerogenic liability. All compounds were more potent inhibitors for COX-2 than COX-1. While most compounds showed good anti-inflammatory activity, compounds 13d, 13f, 13k and 13o were the most potent derivatives (ED50 = 66.5, 73.4, 79.8 and 70.5 μmol/kg, respectively) in comparison with celecoxib (ED50 = 68.1 μmol/kg). Compounds 13d, 13f, 13k and 13o (ulcer index = 3.89, 4.86, 4.96 and 3.92, respectively) were 4–6 folds less ulcerogenic than aspirin (ulcer index = 22.75) and showed approximately ulceration effect similar to celecoxib (ulcer index = 3.35). In addition, molecular docking studies were performed for compounds 13d, 13f, 13k and 13o inside COX-2 active site which showed acceptable binding interactions (affinity in kcal/mol ?2.1774, ?6.9498) in comparison with celecoxib (affinity in kcal/mol ?6.5330).

- Synthesis of some novel 5,7-disubstituted-2-phenyl-5H-[1,3,4]thiadiazolo [3,2-a]pyrimidine derivatives and evaluation of their biological activity
-
Background: In the present study, a series of 5,7-disubstituted-2-phenyl-5H-[1,3,4] thiadiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidine derivatives have been reported. The title compounds were synthesized by the reaction of substituted chalcones with 5-phenyl-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-amine in n-butanol. Methods: All reactions were performed at reflux temperature and the synthesized compounds were characterized by IR, NMR and Mass spectroscopic techniques. Results: The synthesized compounds were screened for their antimicrobial and antioxidant activities. The compounds displayed significant antimicrobial and antioxidant activities. Additionally, the selected compounds were screened for in silico molecular docking studies. Conclusion: In the present work, we have reported an efficient method for the synthesis of some new 5,7-disubstituted-2-phenyl-5H-[1,3,4]thiadiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidine derivatives. Collectively, all the current computational insights support the in vitro observations seen for antimicrobial and antioxidant agents. Further, the pyrimidine derivatives might act as potential specific inhibitors of G6P synthase thereby facilitating its biological activities. From the activity results, it has been concluded that among the studied compounds, compounds 5b, 5d, 5e, 5g, 5i, 5m and 5n could serve as potential antimicrobial and antioxidant agents.

- Multiple substituent effects on 13C chemical shifts in phenylstyryl ketones: Applicability of interactive free energy relationship
-
13C chemical shifts for 23 mono- and di-substituted phenyl styryl ketones have been determined. The shieldings and deshieldings are compared with previous results for other aromatic derivatives. Correlations of the 13C chemical shifts of vinyl carbons with Hammett σ parameters has been determined to provide a consistent picture of electronic effects transmitted through the carbon framework of the compounds studied. Slopes obtained from such Hammett's plots are termed as ρ, and using these 'ρ' values applicability of interactive free energy relationship to chemical shift values has been tested. The cross- interaction constants qx and qy values for C-α are found to be -1.02 and -1.20 and for C-β are -1.46 and -1.19.
