    Synthesis and in-silico Studies of 4-phenyl Thiazol-2-amine Derivatives as Putative Anti-breast Cancer Agents
    (Bentham Science Publishers, 2023-03-22T00:00:00) Lavanya, Kanamarlapudi Joshna; Kaur, Kamalpreet; Jaitak, Vikas
    Background: Breast cancer (BC) is the second-leading cause of cancer-related fatalities in women after lung cancer worldwide. The development of BC is significantly influenced by estrogen receptors (ERs). The problem with current cancer treatments is selectivity, target specificity, cytotoxicity, and developing resistance. Thiazole scaffolds are gaining popularity in drug discovery due to their broad range of biological activity. It has the extraordinary capacity to control a variety of cellular pathways, and its potential for selective anticancer activity can be explored. Objective: Synthesis and in-silico studies of 4-Phenyl thiazol-2-amine derivatives as anti-breast cancer agents and molecular docking was used to assess the compounds� capacity to bind ER-? protein target. Methods: In this study, 4-Phenylthiazol-2-amine derivatives (3a-j) have been synthesized, and using Schrodinger software, molecular docking and ADME studies of the compounds were conducted. Results: Most of the synthesized compounds have shown dock scores ranging from-6.658 to 8.911 kcal/mol, which is better than the standard drug tamoxifen (-6.821 kcal/mol). According to molecular docking, all compounds fit in the protein�s active site and have the same hydrophobic pocket as the standard drug tamoxifen. Further, all of the compounds� ADME properties are below acceptable limits. Conclusion: Compound 3e showed the best docking score of-8.911. All compounds� ADME properties are within acceptable limits, and their p/o coefficients fall within a range, suggesting they will all have sufficient absorption at the site of action. These compounds can be evaluated invitro and in-vivo in the future. � 2024 Bentham Science Publishers.

    New pentacyclic triterpene from Potentilla atrosanguinea Lodd. as anticancer agent for breast cancer targeting estrogen receptor-?
    (Taylor and Francis Ltd., 2021-10-04T00:00:00) Kumar, Amit; Gupta, Kunj Bihari; Dhiman, Monisha; Arora, Saroj; Jaitak, Vikas
    One new (compound 3) along with two previously known ursane type triterpenoids (compounds 1 and 2) were purified by chromatographic techniques from ethyl acetate extract of aerial parts of Potentilla atrosanguniea and characterized by HRMS, 1 D and 2 D-NMR. Compounds 1 (ursolic acid), 2 (euscaphic acid) and 3 (3?,20?-dihydroxy 2-oxo-urs-12-en-28-oic acid) were tested for their antiproliferative activity along with standard bazedoxifene. Compounds 1 and 3 were found to be of higher activity (3.71 and 6.05 ?g/mL) as compared to compound 2 and bazedoxifene (IC50: 24.53 and 17.87 ?g/mL). Anti-estrogenic activity of three compounds on breast cancer (BC) were studied in vitro by accessing their antiproliferative activity and binding with estrogen receptor alpha (ER-?). All three compounds have effective binding affinity towards ER-? and decreased cell growth by downregulating the expression of mRNA and its translational protein as tested by semi-qRT-PCR and western blotting. In terms of effectiveness compounds 1 and 3 were found more active due to their antiproliferative, and antiestrogenic activity as compared to standard bazedoxifene. � 2021 Informa UK Limited, trading as Taylor & Francis Group.

    Design, Synthesis and Evaluation of Indole Based Compounds as Putative Anticancer Agents
    (Central University of Punjab, 2018) Singla, Ramit; Jaitak, Vikas
    In the course of efforts to develop new chemotherapeutic agent for targeting breast cancer, indole-benzimidazole, indole-xanthendione, indole-chromene carbonitrile and indole-dihydropyridine derivatives were computationally designed and synthesized. All the compounds were first analyzed for antiproliferative activity using ER-α responsive T47D breast cancer cells line and cytotoxicity using hPBMC. Further, all the synthesized compounds were also evaluated for ER-α binding affinity. Lead compounds 5f and 8f of series 1 and 2; 10e and 10f of series 3, 11c and 12d of series 4 and 5 were found to be most active at both cellular and receptor level hence were biologically evaluated for gene expression studies for targeting ER-α. Cell imaging experiment clearly suggest that compounds were able to cross cell membrane and accumulate thus causing cytotoxicity. Semiquantitative RT-PCR and Western blotting experiments further supported that lead compounds altered the expression of mRNA and protein of ER-α, thereby preventing the further transactivation and signaling pathway in T47D cells line. Structural investigation from induced fit simulation study suggest that lead compounds binds in a conformation similar to bazedoxifene by extensive hydrogen bonding and Van der Waals forces. All these results indicate that compounds 5f, 8f, 10e, 10f, 11c and 12d represents new putative anticancer agents and can be proved promising in the discovery of antiestrogens for the management of breast cancer.
