    Thioethers: an Overview
    (Bentham Science Publ Ltd, 2022) Han, M. Ihsan; Kucukguzel, S. Guniz
    Spreading rapidly in recent years, cancer has become one of the causes of the highest mortality rates after cardiovascular diseases. The reason for cancer development is still not clearly understood despite enormous research activities in this area. Scientists are now working on the biology of cancer, especially on the root cause of cancer development. The aim is to treat the cancer disease and thus cure the patients. The continuing efforts for the development of novel molecules as potential anti-cancer agents are essential for this purpose. The main aim of this review was to present a survey on the medicinal chemistry of thioethers and provide practical data on their cytotoxicities against various cancer cell lines. The research articles published between 2001-2020 were consulted to prepare this review article; however, patent literature has not been included. The thioether-containing heterocyclic compounds may emerge as a new class of potent and effective anti-cancer agents in the future.

    Effect of Flurbiprofen Derivative (sgk597) on Cell Proliferation and Apoptosis of Breast Cancer Cell Lines
    (Istanbul Univ, Fac Pharmacy, 2022) Atlihan, Irem; Sevinc, Sevgi Kocyigit; Orun, Oya; Yilmaz, Ozgur; Kucukguzel, S. Guniz; Tiber, Pinar Mega
    Background and Aims: The incidence of breast cancer is increasing day by day, especially in women. The search for new drugs against breast cancer is the focus of attention in research. Breast cancer and prostate cancer have remarkable biological similarities. Therefore, the 4-(4-chlorophenyl)-3-(1-(2-fluoro-[1,1'-biphenyl]-4-yl)ethyl)-5-((4-fluorobenzyl)thio)-4H-1,2,4-triazole (SGK597) compound that is suppressing cell proliferation in prostate cancer, was studied in MCF-7 breast can-cer and MCF-10A mammary epithelial cell lines. Methods: The WST-8 method was used to determine cell viability and cytotoxicity of SGK597 in MCF-7 and MCF10-A cell lines. The JC-1 test was applied to determine changes in mitochondrial membrane potential. The protein expression levels of Bax, Bcl-2, and c-PARP associated with apoptosis were determined using Western blot analysis.Results: After 24 and 48 hours of incubation of SGK597, the IC50 values were 28.74 pM and 17.28 pM for MCF-7; 65.9 pM and 50.5 pM for MCF-10A, respectively. Mitochondrial membrane potential showed a tendency toward depolarization in MCF-7 cells as a result of increasing concentration of SGK597, while the same tendency was not seen for MCF-10A. As a result of western blot experiments, no increase in the Bax/Bcl-2 ratio and c-PARP expression level was observed, indicating no apoptosis.Conclusion: It was observed that the compound SGK597 suppressed MCF-7 cell proliferation. These results indicate that SGK597 may be a candidate compound for use as an anticancer agent. Keywords: Apoptosis, breast cancer, flurbiprofen, thioether, triazole

    Synthesis, Antimicrobial Evaluation, and Molecular Modeling Studies of New Thiosemicarbazide-Triazole Hybrid Derivatives of (<i>s</I>)-naproxen
    (Wiley-v C H verlag Gmbh, 2022) Han, M. Ihsan; Ince, Ufuk; Gunduz, Miyase Gozde; Kucckguzel, S. Guniz; Küçükgüzel, Ş. Güniz
    The discovery of new antimicrobial molecules is crucial for combating drug-resistant bacterial and fungal infections that pose a dangerous threat to human health. In the current research, we applied a molecular hybridization approach to synthesize original thiosemicarbazide-triazole derivatives starting from (S)-naproxen (7a-7k). After structural characterization using FT-IR, H-1-NMR, C-13-NMR, and HR-MS, the obtained compounds were screened for their antimicrobial activities against Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 29213, Escherichia coli ATCC 25922, Candida albicans ATCC 10231 and their isolates, as well. Although all compounds were found to be moderate antimicrobial agents, in general, their antibacterial activities were better than antifungal effects. Among the tested compounds, 7j carrying nitrophenyl group on the thiosemicarbazide functionality represented the best MIC value against S. aureus isolate. Finally, molecular docking studies were performed in the active pocket of S. aureus flavohemoglobin to rationalize the obtained biological data.
