Abstract:
In this work, a novel promising hybrid mode of uracil/thiouracil based quinoline pharmacophore i.e. 5a-f was rationalized and synthesized based on rigidification and lipophilic principles, and following the reported pharmacophoric features of camptothecin & doxorubicin. Concurrently, a non-rigid mode pharmacophore i.e. 7a-f was also designed and synthesized. The anti-proliferative activity of the compounds was assessed against three different cancer cell lines, namely A549 lung cancer, MCF-7 breast adenocarcinoma, and HepG-2 hepatic carcinoma. Further, promising candidates were evaluated against A549, and MCF-7 and for their ability to inhibit topoisomerases I &II. Compound 5f was observed to be the most active congener, displaying the highest cell inhibition of 84.4% for topoisomerase I and 92%, for topoisomerase II at a concentration of 100 µM. When its cytotoxicity was evaluated against A549 cells, 5f arrested the cell cycle at the S phase and increased the apoptosis ratio by 46.31%. DFT calculation of 5f showed higher dipole moment and greater negative energy values (-247531.510 kcal/mol) with positive & negative poles, and better stability reflection. Furthermore, molecular docking of 5f to both enzymes showed good agreement with the biological assessment. This study has given insight for further consideration of the highly promising hybrid 5f.
