Abstract:

Introduction: Fluoroquinolones are potent inhibitors of bacterial topoisomerase II. They can also inhibit eukaryotic topoisomerase, and may confer antitumoral properties. Method: In this study the antitumoral activity of a new series of N-substituted piperazinylfluoroquinolones against a panel of human tumor cell lines was determined by MTT assays. Results: Among the tested compounds N-[2- (5-bromo-2-thienyl)-2-oxoethyl ] (C1,N1,E1), N-[ 2- (5-bromo-2-thienyl)-2-(hydroxyimino) ethyl]( C2,N2,E2) and N-[2-(5-bromo-2-thienyl)-2- (phenylmethoxyimino) ethyl] (C3,N3,E3) piperazinyl quinolones exhibited the most cytotoxic activities (mean IC50s = 2.5 to 3 µg/ml), comparable to that of the Etoposide (mean IC50= 1.7µg/ml). Replacement of the 5- bromo-2-thienyl with 4- fluorophenyl or 2,6- difluorophenyl rings leads to variable inhibition activity. The quinolone activity was enhanced by the presence of a chlorine and two fluorine atoms at the benzyl and phenyl groups, especially against ACHN renal adenocarcinoma cell line. Conclusion: These data suggest that these series of quinolones provide good models for the further design of potent antitumor compounds.

Cytotoxicity evaluation of a new series of naphthalimide derivatives against human cancer cell lines

Introduction: Cancer has been known as one the main causes of the death in the world. In recent researches, discovery of effective, selective and safe medications is a priority and emergency. In recent reports, the role of lipoxygenases (LOX) has been confirmed in neoplastic diseases. Some isoenzymes such as 5, 12 and 15 have more importance in the neoplasia. According to the efficacy of naphth...

Evaluation of antibacterial activity of new N-piperazinyl quinolone derivatives with 1,3,4.thiadiazole group

quinolones are broad-spectrum antibacterial agents.they have many clinical uses which are increasing.quinolones exert antibacterial activity primarily by inhibiting bacterial DNA gyrase.the inhibition of DNA gyrase by the quinolones are greatly influenced by the nature of the C-7 substituent on the quinolones molecule.substitution of bulky functional groupd is also possible in C-7 position.furt...

Synthesis, and In-vitro Cytotoxicity Studies of a Series of Triazene Derivatives on Human Cancer Cell Lines

Compounds containing triazene ring structure are cytotoxic agents and clinically used as antitumor alkylating agents. In this study, a series of triazene derivatives holding alkyl and aryl moieties were synthesized and proved to be potent cytotoxic agents in-vitro particularly against eight cancer cell lines (PC3, HT29, Hela, HL60, Jurkat, K562, MCF7, HepG2) and a non-cancerous cell line (HUVEC...
