In this study, two series of novel 4-(4-substituted amidobenzyl)furan-2(5H)-one derivatives containing an α,β-unsaturated lactone fragment were synthesized and screened for Topo I inhibition and antitumor activity. The topoisomerase I inhibitory activities and cytotoxicities against three human cancer cell lines (MCF-7,Hela,A549) were evaluated. The results revealed that series 2, compounds bearing an exocyclic double bond on the furanone ring, generally showed more potent activity than series 1, compounds lacking an exocyclic double bond. Several compounds of series 2 possess significant Topo I inhibitory activity and potent antiproliferative activity against cancer cell lines. Further mechanism studies of the most active compound of series 2 (B-15) indicated that synthetic compounds can not only stabilize the drug-enzyme-DNA covalent ternary complex as well as camptothecin, but also interfere with the binding between Topo I and DNA. The binding patterns of these compounds with Topo I and structure-activity relationships are discussed.

There is a continuous and pressing need to establish new brain-penetrant bioactive compounds with anti-cancer properties. To this end, a new series of 4'-((4-substituted-4,5-dihydro-1H-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl)methyl)-[1,1'-biphenyl]-2-carbonitrile (OTBN-1,2,3-triazole) derivatives were synthesized by click chemistry. The series of bioactive compounds were designed and synthesized from diverse alkynes and N-OTBN, using copper (II) acetate monohydrate in aqueous dimethylformamide at room temperature.

By exploiting the ample biological potential of 1,3,4-oxadiazole/thiadiazole ring, 4-substitutedphenyl-1,3,4-oxadiazol/Thiadiazol-2-yl)-4-(4-substitutedphenyl) azetidin-2-one derivatives were prepared. Various substituted azetidin-2-one derivatives have been identified as immunostimulating and antimicrobial, as well as their antioxidant activity. 2-amino 1,3,4 oxadiazole/thiadiazole conjugates were synthesized by mixing semi/thio carbazides and sodium acetate with water and stirring well, followed by adding aldehydes in methanol at room temperature.

Periodontal disease (PD) is multifactorial oral disease that damages tooth-supporting tissue. PD treatment includes proper oral hygiene, deep cleaning, antibiotics therapy, and surgery. Despite the availability of basic treatments, some of these are rendered undesirable in PD treatment due to side effects and expense.

Insulinomas are neuroendocrine tumors that are derived from pancreatic β-cells, and they often overexpress the glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor (GLP-1R). Radiolabeled exendin-4 derivatives have been used to noninvasively detect the GLP-1R during the diagnosis and preoperative localization of insulinomas; however, their marked renal accumulation can hinder the imaging of pancreatic tail lesions. In this study, we designed and synthesized In-labeled exendin-4 derivatives that possessed 4-(4-substituted phenyl)-moieties as albumin binder (ALB) moieties ([In]In-E4DA2-4), and studied their structure-activity relationships and pharmacokinetics (as well as those of [In]In-E4DA1, which we previously reported) to determine their usefulness as radioligands for GLP-1R imaging.

In this study, novel 4-(5-((2/3/4-substituted benzyl)thio)-4-(4-substituted phenyl)-4-1,2,4-triazol-3-yl)-2-(pyridin-3/4-yl)thiazoles were synthesized following a multi-step synthetic procedure. All the compounds were screened with a panel of gram positive/negative bacteria, yeasts, and molds for antimicrobial activity using the disc diffusion method. Then, the minimum inhibitor concentration (MIC) and the minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) values of active compounds were determined against , , , and using the broth microdilution technique.
