  • The results showed that an ethyl acetate extract was highly effective against specific bacteria (Bacillus subtilis and Micrococcus luteus) and revealed a promising compound with significant antibacterial and cytotoxic activity, making it a viable candidate for medicinal applications.

Article Abstract

Background: Marine actinomycetes are among indispensable sources of natural bioactive compounds with unique antimicrobial and anti-cancer activities.

Objective: Herein, it was aimed to elucidate the bioactive potential of a marine-derived Streptomyces ovatisporus S4702T, isolated previously.

Methods: Streptomyces ovatisporus S4702 was cultured in N-Z Amine broth, and extraction was carried out using different organic solvents. Bioassay-guided purification was followed by chemical characterization using NMR and LC-MS/MS. The compound was then evaluated for its antibacterial, antioxidant and cytotoxic activities.

Results: Etyl acetate extracts gave the highest antibacterial activity, and chemical characterization of this extract indicated the formula as C15H29O5N3 and the corresponding possible molecular structure as 4H-chromen-4-one derivative. It was found highly potent against Bacillus subtilis ATCC 6633 (MIC: 0.25 μg ml) and Micrococcus luteus ATCC 9341 (MBC: 0.5 μg ml). It has no remarkable antioxidant activity, but a higher EC50 value and less cytotoxicity against normal cells. The EC50 values of this chromen derivative were found as 9.68 μg ml-1 for human colon carcinoma, 9.93 μg ml for human prostate adenocarcinoma and 25.5 μg ml for human embryonic kidney cells.

Conclusion: Overall, the presented 4H-chromen-4-one derivative is a remarkable bioactive compound with potent antibacterial and cytotoxic activity. With its high bioactive potential, it is proposed as a good candidate in medicine.

For the typical ESIPT process, the proton transfer process is often completed via the intramolecular hydrogen bond (IHB) with oxygen or nitrogen as proton donor or proton acceptor. In recent years, the ESIPT process for sulfur-containing hydrogen bonds has received more and more attention, but it has been rarely reported. We systematically studied the ESIPT processes and photophysical properties of 2-(benzothiophene-2-yl)-3-hydroxy-4H-chromen-4-one (BTOH), 2-(benzothiophene-2-yl)-3-mercapto-4H-chromen-4-one (BTSH) and 2-(benzothiophen-2-yl)-3-hydroxy-4H-chromene-4-thione (BTS) at the HISSbPBE/6-31+G(d,p) and TD-HISSbPBE/6-31+G(d,p) computational level.

Early growth response 1 (EGR-1) is a key transcription factor that boosts the inflammatory response. Therefore, targeting EGR-1 with small-molecule drugs may be a novel strategy for treating inflammatory diseases, such as atopic dermatitis. (E)-2-(2,4-dimethoxy-6-(4-methoxystyryl)phenyl)-3-hydroxy-6-nitro-4H-chromen-4-one (AB1711) was previously found to be an active compound that disrupts EGR-1-DNA binding.

A series of novel chromone derivatives of (N-(4-oxo-2-(trifluoromethyl)-4H-chromen-6-yl) benzamides) were synthesized by treating 7-amino-2-(trifluoromethyl)-4H-chromen-4-one with KCO and/or NaH, suitable alkyl halides and acetonitrile and/or 1,4-dioxane. The obtained products are in high yields (87 to 96%) with various substituents in short reaction times with no more by-products and confirmed by FT-IR, H, and C-NMR Spectral data. The in vitro cytotoxic activity was examined against two human cancer cell lines, namely the human lung adenocarcinoma (A-549) and the human breast (MCF-7) cancer cell line.
