A series of pyrazolyl-thiazolinone derivatives (E1-E36) have been designed and synthesized and their biological activities were also evaluated as potential EGFR and HER-2 kinase inhibitors. Thirty-four of the 36 compounds were reported for the first time. Among them, compound 2-(5-(4-bromophenyl)-3-p-tolyl-4,5-dihydro-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)thiazol-4(5H)-one (E28) displayed the most potent inhibitory activity (IC(50)=0.24μM for EGFR and IC(50)=1.07μM for HER-2). Antiproliferative assay results indicated that compound E28 owned high antiproliferative activity against MCF-7, B16-F10 and HCT-116 in vitro, with IC(50) value of 0.30, 0.54, and 0.70μM, respectively. Docking simulation was further performed to position compound E28 into the EGFR active site to determine the probable binding model. Based on the preliminary results, compound E28 with potent inhibitory activity in tumor growth would be a potential anticancer agent.

Melanoma, the most fatal form of skin cancer, often becomes resistant to the current therapeutic approaches in most patients. To explore new treatment options, fused thiazole derivatives were synthesized, and several of these compounds demonstrated potent anti-melanoma activity both and . These compounds exhibited significant cytotoxicity against melanoma cell lines at low concentrations.

In modern cancer therapy, blockage of more than one target is a standard approach, and there are already many dual-target drugs that can achieve multiple inhibition through a single molecule. Herein, we designed and synthesized a series of novel derivatives with signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) and histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitory activity through strategy of combining pharmacophore based on the STAT3 inhibitor E28 and HDAC inhibitor MS-275. Among them, compound 24 (IC = 8.

Eupenifeldin (1) is a fungal secondary metabolite possessing bis-tropolone moieties that demonstrates nanomolar cytotoxic activity against a number of cancer cell types. As a potential anticancer lead, this meroterpenoid was used to access 29 semisynthetic analogues via functionalization of the reactive hydroxy groups of the bis-tropolones. A series of ester (2-6), carbonate (7-8), sulfonate (9-16), carbamate (17-20), and ether (21-30) analogues of 1 were generated via 22 reactions.

Aging is the most prominent risk factor for many diseases, which is considered to be a complicated biological process. The rate of aging depends on the effectiveness of important mechanisms such as the protection of DNA from free radicals, which protects the structural and functional integrity of cells and tissues. In any organism, not all organs may age at the same rate.

The Mediterranean diet proved to be one of the healthiest diets in the word. It has several beneficial effects and it prevents many non-communicable diseases, such as cancer, cardiovascular diseases, and obesity. Before being a culinary regime, the Mediterranean diet is characterized by specific cultural heritages and traditions, also influencing the lifestyle of the populations.
