Adenocarcinoma, the most prevalent type of colorectal cancer, makes up roughly 95 % of all cases and is associated with a notably high mortality rate. Owing to the various risk factors which might include personal choices and habits or genetic factors, the risk of developing the cancer for every individual might vary. However, given the statistics, the rate of acquiring the disease is pretty high.

Here, we explored the structure-activity relationship of 4-PSQ and its analogues: 7-chloro-4-[(4-fluorophenyl) selanyl]quinoline (a), 7-chloro-4-{[3-trifluoromethyl)phenyl] selanyl} quinoline (b), 4-((3,5-Bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl) selanyl-7-chloroquinoline (c), 7-chloro-4-[(2,4,6-trimethyl)selanyl]quinolinic acid (d) and 7-chloroquinoline-4-selenium acid (e) in models of acute inflammation and chemical, thermal and mechanical nociception in mice, alongside in silico analysis. Compounds a (-F), b (-CF), c (-Bis-CF), d (-CH), e (-OOH), and 4-PSQ exhibited antinociceptive effects in chemical and thermal nociception models, except d (-CH) and e (-OOH) in the hot plate test.

These products underwent evaluation for their cytotoxic activity against gastric adenocarcinoma cells (AGS). Triterpene derivatives were synthesised, and the selectivity of each product was assessed.
