The search for new and effective chemotherapeutic agents for the treatment of glioblastoma (GBM) represents an unmet need in drug discovery. Herein, a class of novel -trifluoromethylated noscapines has been disclosed. Among them, 9'-bromo--trifluoromethyl noscapine displayed superior anti-GBM potency.

Quercetin, a well-known flavonoid with significant medicinal potential, was derivatized at the C8 position with a tetrahydroisoquinoline (THIQ) moiety, and physicochemical and pharmacological properties, inhibition potential, antioxidant activity, and cytotoxicity of new compounds were evaluated. Physicochemical and pharmacological properties, including lipophilicity, membrane permeability, and P-glycoprotein substrate affinity, were assessed theoretically using the SwissADME software. The metal-chelating ability of the new compounds was evaluated on metal ions Fe, Zn, and Cu, whose homeostasis disruption is linked to the development of Alzheimer's disease.

Background: The marine drug trabectedin has shown unusual effectiveness in the treatment of myxoid liposarcoma (MLPS), a liposarcoma characterized by the expression of the FUS-DDIT3 chimera. Trabectedin elicits a significant transcriptional response in MLPS resulting in cellular depletion and reactivation of adipogenesis. However, the role of the chimeric protein in the mechanism of action of the drug is not entirely understood.
