  • Synthesis and biological activity evaluation of new isatin-gallate hybrids as antioxidant and anticancer agents (in vitro) and in silico study as anticancer agents and coronavirus inhibitors
    May Mohammed Jawad Al-Mudhafar, Jaafar Suhail Wadi
    Pharmacia, 2024
    Background: The hybrid compounds hold promise for developing novel pharmaceuticals, potentially exhibiting greater activity, mainly against viruses and cancer diseases, than their components. Objective: In this study, researchers explored the potential synergistic effects of hybrid molecules by designing and synthesizing a series of isatin-gallate hybrids, denoted as N’-(5-substituted-2-oxoindolin-3-ylidene)-3,4,5-trihydroxybenzohydrazide (3a–d). Methods: Isatin-gallate hybrids (3a–d) were synthesized by reacting gallic hydrazide with each of the isatin analogs (2a–d). The structures of all produced compounds were described using spectrum methods such as fourier transform infrared (FTIR), 1H-nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1H-NMR), and physicochemical attributes. The evaluation of the tested hybrids (3a–d) involved assessing their in vitro antioxidant activities using the α, α-diphenyl-β-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) free radical scavenging method and cytotoxic activities through the MTT [3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide] colorimetric assay for measuring cellular growth. Furthermore, in silico analysis was applied to the final hybrids to evaluate their effects as anticancer and anti-coronavirus agents. Conclusion: Among the examined hybrid compounds, 3b demonstrated substantial in vitro antioxidant and cytotoxic activities. In silico analysis revealed slight variations in the anticancer activity of compounds 3a–d, with differing affinities observed across various cancer cell lines. Additionally, these compounds exhibited moderate efficacy in inhibiting coronavirus activity.

  • Molecular Docking, Synthesis, Characterization, and Preliminary Cytotoxic Evaluation of New 1,3,4-Thiadiazole Derivatives as Αlpha-Estrogen Receptor Modulator
    Zainab M. Abdulkhaleq, Mohammed Hassan Mohammed, Jaafar Suhail Wadi
    Journal of Contemporary Medical Sciences, 2022
    Objective: This study concluded that these newly synthesized analogs may be represented as an exploitable source of new anticancer agents to fight breast cancer
 Methods: Using The crystal structure of Human α Estrogen Receptor (α-ER) with a 4-HYDROXYTAMOXIFEN(standard) as a co-crystalized ligand was gained from the protein data-bank (PDB code 3ERT) as a result of docking the 1,3,4-thiadiazole derivatives compounds(M1-M3) give good docking scores compared to the standard. Compounds M1-M3 was synthesized by multistep procedures from the reaction of intermediate (benzyloxy)phenyl)-1,3,4-thiadiazole-2(3H)-thione derivatives (D1, D2) and the 4-bromo-1-(cyclic amine1-yl)butan-1-one derivatives intermediate (A1, A2). The chemical structures of the target compounds and their intermediates were confirmed by FT-IR, 1H NMR, and 13C NMR.
 Results: The in-vitro cytotoxicity assay (MTT assay) demonstrated that compounds M1-M3 showed good inhibition ratios in Breast cancer cell line (MCF-7) comparable with drug control Tamoxifen
 Conclusion: From the docking study, it was concluded that piperidine and methyl-piperazine moiety were very successful to bind tightly to alpha estrogen receptors by making numerous interaction modes.
