Evaluation of Cytotoxic, COX Inhibitory, and Antimicrobial Activities of Novel Isoxazole-carboxamide Derivatives

Mohammed Hawash et al.

Summary: This study aimed to design and synthesize novel isoxazole derivatives and evaluate their cytotoxic, cyclooxygenase (COX) inhibitory, and antimicrobial activities. The synthesized compounds showed moderate to potent cytotoxic activity against several cancer cell lines, with compound 2b exhibiting the highest activity against cervical cancer cells. Compound 2a and 2b also exhibited potential antiproliferative activities against Hep3B cells. Additionally, compound 2c showed antifungal activity against Candida albicans. These synthesized compounds could be potential candidates for future anticancer drugs.

Design and synthesis of novel substituted indole-acrylamide derivatives and evaluation of their anti-cancer activity as potential tubulin-targeting agents

Mohammed Hawash et al.

Summary: In this study, novel compounds with polar and nonpolar substitutions on the prop-2-en-1-on linker of the trans-indol-3-ylacrylamide scaffold were designed and synthesized. The antiproliferative activities of these compounds against hepatocellular carcinoma were evaluated, and five of the compounds showed moderate antitumor activities. Compound 13 was identified as a tubulin polymerization inhibitor and induced G2/M-phase arrest in Huh7 cells. The results suggest that polar substitutions enhance the potency against tubulin polymerization.

Recent Advances of Tubulin Inhibitors Targeting the Colchicine Binding Site for Cancer Therapy

Mohammed Hawash

Summary: Cancer is a leading cause of death globally, and despite advancements in discovering new anti-cancer candidates, it continues to result in numerous deaths. Tubulin protein, which plays a critical role in cell division and intracellular transportation, has become one of the main targets for anti-cancer agents. Inhibiting microtubule formation by targeting tubulin protein can induce cell death. Recent studies have focused on designing and synthesizing novel compounds that target tubulin and have demonstrated anticancer activity against various cancer cell lines. Tubulin inhibitors have shown promising results in inhibiting cancer cell viability, inducing apoptosis, and effectively binding with the colchicine binding site of tubulin.

SNAIL2 contributes to tumorigenicity and chemotherapy resistance in pancreatic cancer by regulating IGFBP2

Kenji Masuo et al.

Summary: Research indicates that suppressing SNAIL2 expression through RNA interference can decrease tumorigenicity of two pancreatic cancer cell lines, KLM1 and KMP5, both in vitro (sphere formation assay) and in vivo (xenograft assay). Additionally, SNAIL2 suppression enhances sensitivity to gemcitabine and reduces the expression of the pancreatic CSC marker, CD44.

Summary: With the growth of protein structure data, the analysis of molecular interactions between ligands and their target molecules becomes increasingly important. PLIP, a tool for protein-ligand interaction profiling, has been successful in detecting and visualizing these interactions, with applications ranging from characterizing docking experiments to evaluating novel ligand-protein complexes. Additionally, PLIP has been extended to encompass interactions with DNA and RNA, demonstrating its utility in scenarios such as cancer drug targeting DNA and RNA-protein complexes associated with neurological diseases.
