Article Citation - WoS: 7Citation - Scopus: 5Synthesis and Evaluation of Novel Metacetamol Derivatives With Hydrazone Moiety as Anticancer and Antimicrobial Agents(Wiley-v C H verlag Gmbh, 2023) Senkardes, Sevil; Atlihan, Irem; Cayir, Elif; Tiber, Pinar Mega; Orun, Oya; Nigiz, Seyma; Kucukguzel, S. Guniz; Mega Tiber, PınarBy exploiting the wide biological potential of the hydrazone scaffold, a series of hydrazone derivatives were synthesized, starting from N-(3-hydroxyphenyl)acetamide (metacetamol). The structures of the compounds were determined using IR, H-1 and C-13-NMR, and mass spectroscopic methods. The obtained molecules (3 a-j) were evaluated for their anticancer potential against MDA-MB-231 and MCF-7 breast cancer cell lines. According to the CCK-8 assay, all tested compounds showed moderate to potent anticancer activity. Among them, N-(3-(2-(2-(4-nitrobenzylidene)hydrazinyl)-2-oxoethoxy)phenyl)acetamide (3 e) was found to be the most effective derivative with an IC50 value of 9.89 & mu;M against MDA-MB-231 cell lines. This compound was further tested for its potential effects on the apoptotic pathway. Molecular docking studies was also carried out for 3 e in the colchicine binding pocket of tubulin. Additionally, compound 3 e also demonstrated effective antifungal activity, particularly against Candida krusei (MIC=8 & mu;g/ml), indicating that nitro group at the 4(th) position of the phenyl ring was the most preferable substituent for both cytotoxic and antimicrobial activity. Our preliminary findings suggest that compound 3 e could be exploited as a leading structure for further anticancer and antifungal drug development.Article Citation - WoS: 11Citation - Scopus: 11Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of Novel Aryloxyacetic Acid Hydrazide Derivatives as Anticancer Agents(Taylor & Francis inc, 2021) Senkardes, Sevil; Erdogan, Omer; Cevik, Ozge; Kucukguzel, S. GunizIn our continuing search for new anticancer agents, herein we report the synthesis of 2-(4-chloro-3-methylphenoxy)-N'-[(aryl)methylidene]acetohydrazides 3a-j and the evaluation of their anticancer activities on cell viability, morphological changes and caspase-3 activity in cancer cell lines including gastric cancer (MKN45), cervical cancer (HeLa) and breast cancer (MDA-MB-231) cells. 2-(4-chloro-3-methylphenoxy)-N'-[(4-phenylthiophen-2-yl)methylidene] acetohydrazide 3g presented the strongest growth inhibition against MKN45 gastric cancer cell lines with the IC50 value of 1.471 +/- 0.23 mu M. Moreover, compounds 3b and 3g showed high potency against the HeLa and MDA-MB-231 cell lines having IC50 in the range of 2.38-9.72 mu M. These compounds are more selective for the tested human cancer cells than for the mouse fibroblast cell line (NIH/3T3). As a result of the studies conducted in order to understand the molecular mechanism, compounds 3b and 3g enhanced expression of the caspase-3 pro-apoptotic proteins levels besides caspase-3 gene.Article Citation - WoS: 6Citation - Scopus: 6Synthesis, Antimicrobial Properties and <i>in Silico</I> Studies of Aryloxyacetic Acid Derivatives With Hydrazone or Thiazolidine-4 Scaffold(Taylor & Francis inc, 2023) Senkardes, Sevil; Kart, Didem; Bebek, Bilge; Gunduz, Miyase Gozde; Kucukguzel, S. GunizIn this work, twenty hydrazide-hydrazone and 4-thiazolidinone derivatives were synthesized starting from m-cresol. Antimicrobial evaluation was carried out by microdilution method against Enterococcus faecalis and Staphylococcus aureus as Gram-positive bacteria and Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa as Gram-negative bacteria, and three pathogenic fungi Candida albicans, Candida parapsilosis and Candida krusei. Some compounds possessed considerable antimicrobial properties against the tested microorganisms, particularly against E. coli. 4-Thiazolidinones containing 3-methoxyphenyl and 3,5-dichlorophenyl moieties (4h and 4i) were found to be the most active derivatives with MICs of 2 mu g/mL against E. coli. N'-[(3,5-dichlorophenyl)methylidene]-2-(3-methylphenoxy)acetohydrazide (3i) also displayed antifungal activity against Candida krusei that was comparable to fluconazole. Calculated drug-likeness and ADMET parameters of the most active compounds confirmed their potential as antimicrobial drug candidates. Molecular docking investigations were carried out in the thiamine diphosphate-binding site of pyruvate dehydrogenase multienzyme complex E1 component (PDHc-E1) to clarify the potential antibacterial mechanism against E. coli. The results showed the potential and importance of developing new hydrazones and 4-thiazolidinones that would be effective against microbial strains. Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma
