Title: Design and biological evaluation of novel hybrids of 1, 5-diarylpyrazole and Chrysin for selective COX-2 inhibition. Author: Ren SZ, Wang ZC, Zhu XH, Zhu D, Li Z, Shen FQ, Duan YT, Cao H, Zhao J, Zhu HL. Journal: Bioorg Med Chem; 2018 Aug 07; 26(14):4264-4275. PubMed ID: 30031652. Abstract: The overexpress of COX-2 was clearly associated with carcinogenesis and COX-2 as a possible target has long been exploited for cancer therapy. In this work, we described the design and synthesis of a series of diarylpyrazole derivatives integrating with chrysin. Among them, compound e9 exhibited the most potent inhibitory activity against COX-2 and antiproliferative activity against Hela cells with IC50 value of 1.12 μM. Further investigation revealed that e9 could induce apoptosis of Hela cells by mitochondrial depolarization and block the G1 phase of cell cycle in a dose-dependent manner. Besides, molecular docking simulation results was further confirmed that e9 could bind well with COX-2. In summary, compound e9 may be promising candidates for cancer therapy.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
