OBJECTIVE
The main objective of this investigation was to explore the cytotoxic structure-activity relationships of gamma-substituted gamma-aryloxymethyl-alpha-methylene-gamma-butyrolactones against cancer cells.
METHODS
The target compounds were synthesized in two steps commencing with aryl-OH
The transcription factor nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-kappaB) is a regulator related to cellular inflammation, immune responses and carcinogenesis. Therefore, components of the NF-kappaB-activating singnaling pathways are frequent targets for the anti-inflammatory and anticancer agents. In this study,
We have screened 11 isoquinoline derivatives and α-methylene-γ-butyrolactones using the 3-(4,5-dimethylthi-azol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) cytotoxicity assay in HeLa and HEK-293T cells. Compound 2 was identified as potential anticancer agent. To further improve its therapeutic
We have synthesized and evaluated a series of hybrids of polypyrrole minor groove binders structurally related to the natural antitumor agent distamycin A, and alpha-methylene-gamma-butyrolactones with methyl, phenyl, and 4-substituted phenyl groups at the lactone C(gamma) position, denoted 5-17,
A series of alkoxy-substituted di- and monolactones including the (E,E)-3,3'-(dioxaalkanediylidene)bis[dihydro-2(3H)-furanones] (17a-f), monolactones 6, 7, 8, 14, and 15, and dilactone 19 was synthesized by reaction of enolate 4 with appropriate alkyl halides (6, 7, 17a-f, 19), tosyl chloride (8),
Thirty-six new α-benzylidene-γ-lactone compounds based α-methylene-γ-butyrolactone substructure were prepared and characterized by spectroscopic analysis. All compounds were evaluated for antifungal activities in vitro against six plant pathogenic fungi and the half maximal inhibitory concentration
Several novel spiro derivatives of parthenin (1) have been synthesized by the dipolar cycloaddition using various dipoles viz; benzonitrile oxides, nitrones and azides with exocyclic double bond of C ring (α-methylene-γ-butyrolactone). Majority of the compounds exhibited improved anti-cancer
It has been well established that the deubiquitinating enzyme ubiquitin-specific peptidase 7 (USP7) supports cancer growth by up-regulating multiple cellular pathways, including Wnt/β-catenin signaling. Therefore, considerable efforts are directed at identifying and developing USP7 inhibitors. Here,
Design, synthesis, and evaluation of α-methylene-γ-butyrolactone analogues and their evaluation as anticancer agents is described. SAR identified a spirocyclic analogue 19 that inhibited TNFα-induced NF-κB activity, cancer cell growth and tumor growth in an ovarian cancer model. A second iteration
In the present study, novel spiro derivatives of α-santonin were prepared and tested for their anticancer activity against a panel of six human cancer cell lines. Spiro-isoxazoline and spiro-isoxazolidine derivatives have been generated on C-ring of α-santonin (α-methylene-γ-butyrolactone) by the
Aberrant activation of the signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) and the nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) signalling pathways is associated with the development of cancer and inflammatory diseases. JAKs and IKKs are the key regulators in the STAT3 and NF-κB signalling respectively.
The eight novel ivangustin enantiomer analogues possessing α-methylene-γ-butyrolactone moiety have been synthesized using (4S6R, 4S6S)-4-tert-butyldimethylsilyloxy-6-methylcyclohex-2-en-1-one (1) as starting material. These transformations were mainly carried out by aldol condensation reaction and
A series of Michael-type analogues were generated on the C-ring of α-santonin (α-methylene-γ-butyrolactone) upon reaction with various thiols. All the thiol adducts synthesized were evaluated for their anticancer activity against four human cancer cell lines (PC-3, HCT-15, A-549 and MCF-7). Bioassay
Several novel series of sesquiterpene mustards (SMs) bearing nitrogen mustard and glutathione (GSH)-reactive α-methylene-γ-butyrolactone groups were successfully prepared for the first time and showed excellent antiproliferative activities in vitro. Among them, compounds 2e and 2g displayed the
Sesquiterpene lactones are naturally occurring compounds that have attracted considerable attention because to their vast array of biological activities. These plant-derived compounds contain the α-methylene-γ- butyrolactone functional group, which is the structural requirement for their
