Thieno[2,3-]isoquinolin-5(4)-one is known for its potential as an anti-ischemic agent through the inhibition of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP1). However, the compound also inhibits many other enzymes of the PARP family, potentially limiting its usability. The broad inhibition profile, on the other hand, indicates that this molecule backbone could be potentially used as a scaffold for the development of specific inhibitors for certain PARP enzymes. These efforts call for novel synthetic strategies for substituted thieno[2,3-]isoquinolin-5(4)-one that could provide the needed selectivity. In this article, an efficient synthetic strategy for 8-alkoxythieno[2,3-]isoquinolin-5(4)-ones through eight steps is presented and other tested synthetic pathways are discussed in detail. Synthesis of 7-methoxythieno[2,3-]isoquinolin-5(4)-one is also demonstrated to show that the strategy can be applied widely in the syntheses of substituted alkoxythieno[2,3-]isoquinolin-5(4)-ones.

Background: Diosmetin (DIOS) is a naturally abundant flavonoid and possesses various biological activities that hold promise as an anti-cancer agent. However, the anti-cancer activities and underlying mechanism of DIOS on cutaneous melanoma remain unclear.
Objective: This study seeks to explore the anti-tumor effect and mechanism of DIOS in cutaneous melanoma.
Telomeres are hypersensitive to the formation of the common oxidative lesion 8-oxoguanine (8oxoG), which impacts telomere stability and function. OGG1 and MUTYH glycosylases initiate base excision repair (BER) to remove 8oxoG or prevent mutation. Here, we show OGG1 loss or inhibition, or MUTYH loss, partially rescues telomeric 8oxoG-induced premature senescence and associated proinflammatory responses, while loss of both glycosylases causes a near complete rescue in human fibroblasts.

Purpose: Histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) plays a critical role in tumorigenesis and tumor progression, contributing to proliferation, chemoresistance, and cell motility by regulating microtubule architecture. Despite its upregulation in melanoma tissues and cell lines, the specific biological roles of HDAC6 in melanoma are not well understood. This study aims to explore the functional effects and underlying mechanisms of WT161, a selective HDAC6 inhibitor, in melanoma cell lines.

Cervical cancer is the fourth most common cancer among women globally, and studies have shown that genetic variants play a significant role in its development. A variety of germline and somatic mutations are associated with cervical cancer. However, genomic data derived from these mutations have not been extensively utilized for the development of repurposed drugs for cervical cancer.

Drug repurposing has potential to improve outcomes for high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC). Repurposing drugs with PARP family binding activity may produce cytotoxic effects through the multiple mechanisms of PARP including DNA repair, cell-cycle regulation, and apoptosis. The aim of this study was to determine existing drugs that have PARP family binding activity and can be repurposed for treatment of HGSOC.
