We have discovered that polar 7-substituents of pyridopyrimidine derivatives affect not only whole cell AK inhibitory potency, but also selectivity in causing locomotor side effects in vivo animal models. We have identified compound, 1o, which has potent whole cell AK inhibitory potency, analgesic activity and minimal reduction of locomotor activity.

This study investigates a series of newly synthesized compounds, including pyridopyrimidine derivatives (9a-g), tricyclic pyridotriazolopyrimidine analogs (18a-d), and dihydropyrimidinones (22a-i), as apoptotic inducers and inhibitors of phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase α (PI3Kα), with potential anticancer activity. An initial in vitro screening of 60 cancer cell lines identified pyridopyrimidine derivatives 9a-g as promising broad-spectrum anticancer agents, with compound 9e demonstrating the strongest inhibitory activity, particularly against T-47D breast cancer cells. Notably, the antitumor potency of compound 9e surpassed that of Pictilisib, inducing G2-M phase cell cycle arrest and initiating apoptosis through the intrinsic apoptotic pathway.

Pyrimidine-based heterocyclic compounds are garnering substantial interest due to their essential role as a class of natural and synthetic molecules. These compounds show a diverse array of biologically relevant activities, making them highly prospective candidates for clinical translation as therapeutic agents in combating various diseases. Pyrimidine derivatives and their fused analogues, such as thienopyrimidines, pyrazolopyrimidines, pyridopyrimidines, and pyrimidopyrimidines, hold immense possibility in both anticancer and antibacterial research.

A series of pyridopyrimidine derivatives was designed, synthesized and examined for antitumor activity using four types of malignant cells. Cervical cancer (HeLa), hepatic cancer (HepG-2), breast cancer (MCF-7) and colon cancer (HCT-166) cells, as well as normal human lung fibroblast cells (WI-38) were used to determine the cytotoxicity. Pyrazol-1- pyridopyrimidine derivative was found to be the most active compound against three malignant cells Hela, MCF-7 and HepG-2 with IC values of 9.

Breast cancer remains a major global health issue, particularly affecting women and contributing significantly to mortality rates. Current treatments for estrogen receptor-positive breast cancers, such as aromatase inhibitors, are effective but often come with side effects and resistance issues. This study addresses these gaps by targeting aromatase, an enzyme crucial for estrogen synthesis, which plays a pivotal role in breast cancer progression.

The goal of this study was directed to synthesize a novel class of annulated compounds containing difuro[3,2-:3',2'-]chromene. Friedländer condensation of -aminoacetyl derivative was performed with some active methylene ketones, namely, 1,3-cyclohexanediones, pyrazolones, 1,3-thiazolidinones and barbituric acids, furnished furochromenofuroquinolines (,), furochromenofuropyrazolopyridines (-), furochromenofurothiazolopyridines (,) and furochromenofuropyridopyrimidines (, ), respectively. Also, condensation of substrate with 5-amine-3-methyl-1-pyrazole and 6-amino-1,3-dimethyluracil, as cyclic enamines, resulted in polyfused systems and , respectively.
