This study synthesized a series of novel compounds with anticancer activity and the potential to target specific cancer genes. The results showed that one of the hybrid compounds had significant effects on cell cycle and cell apoptosis, and exhibited good binding ability to the active site of EGFR.
Background: Quinazolinone scaffolds have drawn international attention due to their potent anticancer activity and therapeutic applications. Furthermore, Chalcone and Oxime are special chemical templates with a wide range of biological activities, including anti-cancer activity. As a result, the purpose of this research is to synthesize and develop a new series of 2-thioxo-3-substituted quinazolin-4-one/chalcone analogues and 2-thioxo-3-substituted quinazolin-4-one/oximes analogues in order to obtain a new cytotoxic agent that can target epidermal growth factor (EGFR) and/or V-Raf Murine Sarcoma Viral Oncogene Homolog B (BRAFV600E) oncogene.Objective: All synthesised compounds were tested for anticancer activity against four human cancer cell lines. The new hybrids' potential anti-cancer mechanism was evaluated using EGFR and BRAF enzymatic tests. The most active molecules within the target enzyme's active site were studied using molecular docking. Apoptosis and cell cycle analysis were also investigated.Method:s The target compounds 7a-j (series I) are obtained in high yields by alkylation of 2-mercapto-3-ethyl-(3H)-quinazolin-4-one 3a with acylated chalcones 6a-j. Alkylation of compounds 3b-c with N-(4-acetylphenyl)-2-bromoacetamide 8, the corresponding ketones intermediates 9b-c was produced in high yields. Compounds 7a-j, 9b-c, and 10b-c were tested for their antiproliferative activity against four human cancer cell lines using the MTT assay and doxorubicin as a control drug. The EGFR and BRAF assay tests were used to assess the inhibitory potency against EGFR and BRAF.Results: Compounds 7c, 7d, 7f and 10c exhibited high proliferative activity and inhibited EGFR, which could serve as a potential target for antiproliferative activity. The most active hybrid, 7c, primarily caused cell cycle arrest in G0/G1 phase and S phase as well as cell apoptosis. Finally, the most active hybrids were docked well to the EGFR active site.Conclusion: 2-thioxo-3-substituted quinazolin-4-one/chalcone derivatives have significant apoptotic and antiproliferative properties.
