Antifungal action of the oxathiolone-fused chalcone derivative
PublicationAMG-148, pochodna chalkonu z pierścieniem oksatiolonowym, wykazuje aktywność przeciwgrzybową in vitro wobec szczepów grzybowych patogennych dla człowieka, z wartościami minimalnych stężeń hamujących wzrost mieszczących się w zakresie 1-16 mikrogramów na mililitr, natomiast w wyższych stężeniach związek ten działa grzybobójczo. Obecność głównych białek oporności wielolekowej, Cdr1p, Cgr2p lub Mdr1p nie wpływa znacząco na aktywność...

Chemosensitization of multidrug resistant Candida albicans by the oxathiolone fused chalcone derivatives
PublicationThree structurally related oxathiolone fused chalcone derivatives appeared effective chemosensitizers, able to restore in part sensitivity to fluconazole of multidrug-resistant C.albicans strains. Compound 21 effectively chemosensitized cells resistant due to the overexpression of the MDR1 gene, compound 6 reduced resistance of cells overexpressing the ABC-type drug transporters CDR1/CDR2 and derivative 18 partially reversed fluconazole...

Novel chalcone-derived pyrazoles as potential therapeutic agents for the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer
PublicationLung cancer is considered to account for approximately one-fifth of all malignant tumor-related deaths worldwide and is therefore one of the most lethal malignancies. Pyrazole scaffold possesses a wide range of biological and pharmacological activities, which play important roles in medicinal chemistry. The present study reports the synthesis and in vitro biological characterization of nine pyrazoles derived from chalcones as potential...

New Chalcones Derivatives With Potent Antitumor Activity And Their Metabolism In Vitro
PublicationChalcone derivatives exhibit a broad range of biological activities, with antioxidant and cytotoxic properties among the most studied. Despite numerous reports on chalcones as cytotoxic, and potentially anticancer agents, very little is know on their actual mechanism of activity. Generally, chalcones are considered as antimitotic agents, which interfere with tubulin assembly.We have recently developed a new class of chalcones with...

Influence of S-Oxidation on Cytotoxic Activity of Oxathiole-Fused Chalcones
PublicationSynthesis, in vitro cytotoxic activity, and interaction with tubulin of oxidized, isomeric 1-(5-alkoxybenzo[d] [1,3]oxathiol-6-yl)-3-phenylprop-2-en-1-ones and 1-(6- alkoxybenzo[d][1,3]oxathiol-5-yl)-3-phenylprop-2-en-1- ones are described. Most of the compounds demonstrated cytotoxic activity at submicromolar concentrations. It was found that oxidation of sulfur atom of the oxathiole-fused chalcones strongly influenced activity...

Structural factors affecting affinity of cytotoxic oxathiole-fused chalcones toward tubulin
PublicationSynthesis, in vitro cytotoxic activity, and interaction with tubulin of (E)-1-(6-alkoxybenzo[d][1,3]oxathiol- 5-yl)-3-phenylprop-2-en-1-one derivatives (2) are described. Some of the compounds demonstrated cytotoxic activity at submicromolar concentrations, and the activity could be related to interaction with tubulin at the colchicine binding site. Interaction of selected derivatives with tubulinwas evaluated using molecular modeling,...
