Design, Synthesis, Biological Evaluation and Molecular Docking Studies of 5-fluorouracil-dithiocarbamate Conjugates

Design, synthesis and biological evaluation of Ciprofloxacin- peptide conjugates as anticancer agents

Cancer has emerged as a leading cause of death throughout the world. Peptides are a novel class of anticancer agents that can specifically target cancer cells with low toxicity to normal tissues and thus, offer new opportunities for future cancer treatment. On the other hand, Ciprofloxacin, an antibiotic, also known to its anticancer property for enabling cell cycle arrest and creating double s...

Synthesis, Biological Evaluation, Docking and QSAR Studies of Some Novel Naphthalimide Dithiocarbamate Analogs as Antitumor and Anti-Inflammatory Agents

A series of novel naphthalimide dithiocarbamate 4a-f, 5a-f were efficiently synthesized via introduce dithiocarbamate and dithioate side chain onto the naphthalic anhydride core. The structures of the synthesized analogs were elucidated by spectroscopic methods, including IR, 1H and 13C NMR, and (ESIHRMS) techniques. The anti-cancer activities of the generated naphthalimide derivatives 4c, 4d, ...

TSPO Ligand-Methotrexate Prodrug Conjugates: Design, Synthesis, and Biological Evaluation

The 18-kDa translocator protein (TSPO) is a potential mitochondrial target for drug delivery to tumors overexpressing TSPO, including brain cancers, and selective TSPO ligands have been successfully used to selectively deliver drugs into the target. Methotrexate (MTX) is an anticancer drug of choice for the treatment of several cancers, but its permeability through the blood brain barrier (BBB)...
