2′-hydroxy-chalcones are naturally occurring compounds with a wide array of bioactiv-ity. In an effort to delineate the structural features that favor antioxidant and lipoxygenase (LOX) inhibitory activity, the design, synthesis, and bioactivity profile of a series of 2′-hydroxy-chalcones bearing diverse substituents on rings A and B, are presented. Among all the synthesized derivatives, chalcone 4b, bearing two hydroxyl substituents on ring B, was found to possess the best combined activity (82.4% DPPH radical scavenging ability, 82.3% inhibition of lipid peroxidation, and satisfac-tory LOX inhibition value (IC50 = 70 μM). Chalcone 3c, possessing a methoxymethylene substituent on ring A, and three methoxy groups on ring B, exhibited the most promising LOX inhibitory activity (IC50 = 45 μM). A combination of in silico techniques were utilized in an effort to explore the crucial binding characteristics of the most active compound 3c and its analogue 3b, to LOX. A common H-bond interaction pattern, orienting the hydroxyl and carbonyl groups of the aromatic ring A towards Asp768 and Asn128, respectively, was observed. Regarding the analogue 3c, the bulky (-OMOM) group does not seem to participate in a direct binding, but it induces an orientation capable to form H-bonds between the methoxy groups of the aromatic ring B with Trp130 and Gly247.

Glutamate-induced neurotoxicity is characterized by cellular Ca2+ uptake, which is upstream of reactive oxygen species (ROS)-induced apoptosis signaling and MAPKs activation. In the present study, we synthesized isoliquiritigenin analogs with electron-donating and electron-withdrawing functional groups. These analogs were evaluated for neuroprotective effect against glutamate-induced neurotoxicity in HT22 cells. Among these analogs, compound BS11 was selected as a potent neuroprotective agent. Cellular Ca2+ concentration, ROS level, MAPKs activation and AIF translocation to the nucleus were increased upon treatment with 5 mM glutamate. In contrast, we identified that compound BS11 reduced the cellular Ca2+ concentration and ROS level upon glutamate exposure. Western blot analysis showed that MAPK activation was decreased by treatment with compound BS11. We further identified that cotreatment of compound BS11 and glutamate inhibited translocation of AIF to the nucleus.

Owing to the increasing amount of waste materials around the globe, the conversion of waste or secondary by-products to value-added products for various applications has gained significant interest. Herein, two novel agro-food waste products, Musa sp. 'Malbhog' peel ash (MMPA) and Musa Champa Hort. ex Hook. F. peel ash (MCPA) are used as catalysts to promote an inexpensive, efficient and eco-friendly carbon-carbon bond forming crossed aldol reaction at room temperature in solvent free conditions. Furthermore, the resulting products were subjected to reactions with these promoters in an oxygen atmosphere and led to the formation of novel flavone derivatives. Moreover, the used catalysts were properly characterized using different sophisticated analytical techniques such as Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray diffractometry (XRD), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller analysis (BET), Raman spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM-EDS), transition electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) along with element detection using atomic absorption spectroscopy and ion chromatographic methods. These two approaches are metal free, as well as being devoid of any extra additives, co-catalysts, harsh conditions, the use of column chromatography for purification and result in a higher yield of the product within a short space of time. The catalytic abilities of the promoter were also examined to synthesize important bioactive molecules such as butein and apigenin at room temperature. With gram scale synthesis of the chalcone derivatives, the used catalysts (MMPA and MCPA) were further reused for five cycles and did not demonstrate any loss in catalytic activity.

Herein, we demonstrate that butein (1) can prevent swelling in a murine lymphedema model by suppressing tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α) production. Butein derivatives were synthesized and evaluated to identify compounds with in vitro anti-inflammatory activity. Among them, 20 μM of compounds 7j, 7m, and 14a showed 50percent suppression of TNF-α production in mouse peritoneal macrophages after lipopolysaccharide stimulation. Compound 14a, exhibited the strongest potency with an in vitro IC50 of 14.6 μM and suppressed limb volume by 70percent in a murine lymphedema model. The prodrug strategy enabled a six-fold increase in kinetic solubility of compound 1 and five-fold higher levels of active metabolite in the blood for compound 14a via oral administration in the pharmacokinetics study. We suggest that the compound 14a could be developed as a potential therapeutic agent targeting anti-inflammatory activity to alleviate lymphedema progression.

Butein (3,4,20,40-tetrahydroxychalcone) belongs to the chalcone family of flavonoids and possesses various biological activities. In this study, butein was synthesized through aldol condensation catalyzed by thionyl chloride (SOCl2)/ethyl alcohol (EtOH) for the first time. The optimal reaction conditions including the molar ratio of reactants, the dosage of catalyst, and the reaction time on the yield of product were investigated, and the straightforward strategy assembles the yield of butein up to 88%. Butein has been found to inhibit xanthine oxidase (XO) activity. Herein, the inhibitory mechanism of butein against XO was discussed in aspects of inhibition kinetic, fluorescence titration, synchronous fluorescence spectroscopy, and molecular docking. The inhibition kinetic analysis showed that butein possessed a stronger inhibition on XO in an irreversible competitive manner with IC50 value of 2.93 × 10?6 mol L?1. The results of fluorescence titrations and synchronous fluorescence spectroscopy indicated that butein was able to interact with XO at one binding site, and the fluorophores of XO were placed in a more hydrophobic environment with the addition of butein. Subsequently, the result of molecular docking between butein and XO protein revealed that butein formed hydrogen bonding with the amino acid residues located in the hydrophobic cavity of XO. All the results suggested that the inhibitory mechanism of butein on XO may be the insertion of butein into the active site occupying the catalytic center of XO to avoid the entrance of xanthine and inducing conformational changes in XO.

A bioactive component, 2′,3,4,4′-tetrahydrochalcone (RY3-a) was first isolated from Vernohia anthelmintica (L.) willd seeds, and a set of its analogs, RY3-a-1–RY3-a-15 and RY3-c were designed and synthesized. Biological activity assays showed that RY3-c exhibited better melanogenesis and antioxidant activity and lower toxicity in comparison with RY3-a and butin. Further study tests showed that RY3-c exhibited better melanogenesis activity compared with the positive control 8-methoxypsoralan (8-MOP) in a vitiligo mouse model, suggesting that RY3-c is a good candidate antivitiligo agent. Mechanistic studies showed that RY3-c could repair cell damage induced by excessive oxidative stress and may exert melanin synthesis activity in the mouse melanoma B16F10 cell line by activating the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway and the upregulation of c-kit.

The Vernohia anthelmintica L.'s extract is one of the most popular Uygur medicines used for vitiligo. It is believed that the chalcone compounds of the plant play an important role in the treatment since they may activate tyrosinase and improve melanin production. In this study, twenty-one chalcones and nine analogues were synthesized in view of three different components of chalcone (A, B ring and α, β-unsaturated carbonyl). After biological evaluation of their activity on tyrosinase in cell-free systems, the result showed that most compounds (except polyhydroxy chalcones) possess activator effect on the tyrosinase, especially for 13a–15a, 20a and 1b, which bearing a comparable activity to the positive control 8-MOP. SAR of these tyrosinase activator was summed up for the first time as well. Finally, compound 13a was found to increase melanin contents and tyrosinase activity 1.75 and 1.3 fold, respectively, compared with that of untreated murine B16 cells at the concentration of 40?μg/mL.

A series of 31 chalcones were synthesized and evaluated for anti-proliferative activity against the human cervical cancer cell lines (HeLa and SiHa). Compound 19, (E)-1-(2,4-dihydroxyphenyl)-3-(4-(dimethylamino) phenyl)-2-methylprop-2-en-1-one was found to be an effective anti-proliferative agent in HeLa and SiHa cells (IC50 = 0.035 μM). Compound 19 increased the percentage of apoptosis in a dose-dependent manner, as measured by Annexin V-FITC (fluorescein isothiocyanate)/(propidium iodide) PI staining. Molecular modeling studies of compound 19 showed that the most potent structure was docked at the yeast 20 S proteasome binding site (Protein Data Bank code-3E47) and was stabilized in the cavity by various hydrophobic and hydrogen bonding interactions.
