    Benzotriazole Substituted 2-Phenylquinazolines as Anticancer Agents: Synthesis, Screening, Antiproliferative and Tubulin Polymerization Inhibition Activity
    (Bentham Science Publishers, 2022-10-28T00:00:00) Dwivedi, Ashish Ranjan; Rawat, Suraj Singh; Kumar, Vijay; Kumar, Naveen; Kumar, Vinay; Yadav, Ravi Prakash; Baranwal, Somesh; Prasad, Amit; Kumar, Vinod
    Aims: Development of anticancer agents targeting tubulin protein. Background: Tubulin protein is being explored as an important target for anticancer drug development. Ligands binding to the colchicine binding site of the tubulin protein act as tubulin polymerization inhibitors and arrest the cell cycle in the G2/M phase. Objective: Synthesis and screening of benzotriazole-substituted 2-phenyl quinazolines as potential anticancer agents. Methods: A series of benzotriazole-substituted quinazoline derivatives have been synthesized and evaluated against human MCF-7 (breast), HeLa (cervical) and HT-29 (colon) cancer cell lines using standard MTT assays. Results: ARV-2 with IC50 values of 3.16 �M, 5.31 �M, 10.6 �M against MCF-7, HELA and HT29 cell lines, respectively displayed the most potent antiproliferative activities in the series while all the compounds were found non-toxic against HEK293 (normal cells). In the mechanistic studies involving cell cycle analysis, apoptosis assay and JC-1 studies, ARV-2 and ARV-3 were found to induce mitochondria-mediated apoptosis. Conclusion: The benzotriazole-substituted 2-phenyl quinazolines have the potential to be developed as potent anticancer agents. � 2023 Bentham Science Publishers.

    Synthesis and screening of novel 4-N-heterocyclic-2-aryl-6,7,8-trimethoxyquinazolines as antiproliferative and tubulin polymerization inhibitors
    (Elsevier Ltd, 2022-08-28T00:00:00) Dwivedi, Ashish Ranjan; Rawat, Suraj Singh; Kumar, Vijay; Kumar, Naveen; Anand, Piyush; Yadav, Ravi Prakash; Baranwal, Somesh; Prasad, Amit; Kumar, Vinod
    Colchicine binding site represent a crucial target for the anticancer drug development especially in view of emerging drug resistance from the currently available chemotherapeutics. A total of 16 novel 4-N-heterocyclic-2-aryl-6,7,8-trimethoxyquinazolines were synthesized and screened for antiproliferative and tubulin polymerization inhibition potential. The synthesized compounds were evaluated against MCF-7, HeLa and HT-29 cancer cell lines and normal cell line HEK-293 T. In the series, 2?aryl group with 4?bromophenyl substitution displayed IC50 values of 6.37 �M, 17.43 �M, 6.76 �M and 4?chlorophenyl substitution displayed IC50 values of 2.16 �M, 8.53 �M, 10.42 �M against MCF-7, HELA and HT29 cancer cell lines, respectively. In the mechanistic studies involving cell cycle analysis, apoptosis assay and JC-1 studies, both the lead compounds were found to induce mitochondria mediated apoptosis and lead molecule with 4?chlorophenyl substitution displayed significant tubulin polymerization inhibition activity. In the computation studies, lead molecule displayed significant binding affinites in the colchicine domain and showed good thermodynamic stability during 100 ns MD simulation studies. 4-N-Heterocyclic-2-aryl-6,7,8-trimethoxyquinazolines showed appreciable drug like characteristics and can be developed as potent anticancer agents. � 2022 Elsevier Ltd

    Structure, regulation, and host interaction of outer membrane protein U (OmpU) of Vibrio species
    (Academic Press, 2021-10-27T00:00:00) Ganie, Hilal A.; Choudhary, Aaina; Baranwal, Somesh
    OmpU is a multimeric, cation selective outer membrane protein of Vibrio and related species that non-covalently interact with peptidoglycan layer. Interaction of OmpU with human host cells triggers signaling pathways to promote cytokine secretion, reactive oxygen species production, and caspase independent death in immune and epithelial cells. Non-choleric OmpU imparts resistance to antimicrobial peptides and induces actin cytoskeletal reorganization in the host cells. Further, OmpU isolated from Vibrio species elicits an immune response in several aquaculture hosts. Importantly, in-vivo studies using recombinant OmpU or OmpU derived mimotopes reveal a short-lasting immunity, and protection against Vibrio in the aquaculture sector. In conclusion, OmpU is a key adhesion protein and an important virulence factor for successful colonization of Vibrio species into hosts. This review article provides a broad overview of structural, regulatory, and functional mechanisms of OmpU in normal and disease states. � 2021
