Résumé :
T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia is an aggressive hematological malignancy originating from the malignant transformation of progenitor T cells at different stages of development. The treatment causes severe adverse effects and is associated with relapses and high morbidity and mortality rates. The present study aimed to evaluate the cytotoxic activity of 28 new compounds containing 3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl analogues on hematological neoplastic cells lines. Cytotoxicity screening by the MTT method revealed that compound 1d was the most promising. Cell viability of neoplastic cells decreased in a concentration- and time-dependent manner, with compound 1d not causing hemolysis or reducing peripheral blood mononuclear cells viability, suggesting a selective cytotoxicity. We also suggested that compound 1d induced apoptotic-like cell death with mitochondrial involvement in Jurkat cells.

Résumé :
Immune surveillance by cytotoxic lymphocytes against cancer has been postulated for decades, but direct evidence for the role of cytotoxic lymphocytes in protecting against spontaneous malignancy has been lacking. As the rejection of many experimental cancers by cytotoxic T lymphocytes and natural killer cells is dependent on the pore-forming protein perforin (pfp), we examined pfp-deficient mice for increased cancer susceptibility. Here we show that pfp-deficient mice have a high incidence of malignancy in distinct lymphoid cell lineages (T, B, NKT), indicating a specific requirement for pfp in protection against lymphomagenesis. The susceptibility to lymphoma was accentuated by simultaneous lack of expression of the p53 gene, mutations in which also commonly predispose to human malignancies, including lymphoma. In contrast, the incidence and age of onset of sarcoma was unaffected in p53-deficient mice. Pfp-deficient mice were at least 1,000-fold more susceptible to these lymphomas when transplanted, compared with immunocompetent mice in which tumor rejection was controlled by CD8+ T lymphocytes. This study is the first that implicates direct cytotoxicity by lymphocytes in regulating lymphomagenesis.

Résumé :
Background: Development of novel strategies to kill cancer by sparing normal cells is of utmost importance. Apart from their known antimicrobial activity, only limited information has been recorded regarding the antitumor potential of biocompatible silver oxide nanoparticles (AgONPs). There is a need to evaluate the anticancer potential of biocompatible AgONPs in vitro. Methods: A new approach of utilizing the leaf extract of Excoecaria agallocha was used to synthesize AgONPs. This was then characterized by ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometry, nanoparticle-tracking analysis, and ζ-potential analysis. Cytotoxicity and apoptotic potential were evaluated with an MTT assay and an annexin V-binding assay against the murine melanoma (B16F10), murine colon cancer (CT26), murine lung adenocarcinoma (3LL), and murine Ehrlich ascites carcinoma (EAC) cell lines. Cellular localization of AgONPs was evaluated on fluorescence microscopy. Results: UV peaks at 270 and 330 nm indicated the formation of nanoparticles (NPs) and the NP-tracking analyzer revealed them to have a size of 228 nm. AgONPs exerted initial cytotoxicity, specifically against all the experimental malignant cells by sparing the normal cell lines. Moreover, AgONPs exert apoptosis equally on all the malignant cells in vitro and ex vivo. This cytotoxicity possibly occurs via the nuclear translocation of AgONPs as analyzed in B16F10 cells. Conclusions: AgONPs utilizing natural sources would be a new medicinal approach against a broad spectrum of malignancy.

Résumé :
Reciprocal crosstalk between platelets and malignancies underscores the potential of antiplatelet therapy in cancer treatment. In this study, we found that human chronic myeloid leukemia K562 cell-differentiated megakaryocytes and murine platelets produced bioactive substances and these are released into the extracellular space, partly in their exosomal form. High-mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) is a type of exosomal cargo, and the antiplatelet drugs aspirin and dipyridamole interfered with its incorporation into the exosomes. Those released substances and exosomes, along with exogenous HMGB1, promoted cancer cell survival and protected cells from doxorubicin cytotoxicity. In a tumor-bearing model established using murine Lewis lung carcinoma (LLC) cells and C57BL/6 mice, the tumor suppressive effect of dipyridamole correlated well with decreased circulating white blood cells, soluble P-selectin, TGF-β1 (Transforming Growth Factor-β1), exosomes, and exosomal HMGB1, as well as tumor platelet infiltration. Exosome release inhibitor GW4869 exhibited suppressive effects as well. The suppressive effect of dipyridamole on cancer cell survival was paralleled by a reduction of HMGB1/receptor for advanced glycation end-products axis, and proliferation- and migration-related β-catenin, Yes-associated protein 1, Runt-related transcription factor 2, and TGF- β1/Smad signals. Therefore, exosomes and exosomal HMGB1 appear to have roles in platelet-driven cancer malignancy and represent targets of antiplatelet drugs in anticancer treatment.

Résumé :
Abstract Activated killer cells, unrestricted by major histocompatibility (MHC) antigens circulate in the peripheral blood of patients who have undergone autologous and allogeneic bone marrow transplant (BMT) and may contribute to the reduced risk of leukemic relapse observed after these procedures. Interleukin-2 (IL-2) in vitro augments this cytotoxicity and used therapeutically might thereby promote the eradication of minimal residual disease. In order to assess whether these effects on cytotoxicity can be reproduced in vivo, we studied changes in number, phenotype, and MHC unrestricted cytotoxicity of peripheral blood mononuclear cells obtained from patients with hematologic malignancy receiving IL-2 infusions. Patients with acute myeloid leukemia and multiple myeloma were treated after cytotoxic chemotherapy or autologous BMT. IL-2 infusions produced an initial lymphopenia, followed by a progressive recovery in mononuclear cell numbers and a rebound lymphocytosis after the termination of treatment. This affected all lymphocyte subsets; in particular CD25 (IL-2 receptor) positive cell numbers rose sevenfold. Cells with the ability to kill a natural killer (NK)-resistant, lymphokine activated killer cell (LAK)-sensitive target appeared in the circulation during 16 of 19 infusions and mean LAK activity rose from 5.9% to 15.5% during infusion (E:T ratio, 50:1; P less than .001). During IL-2 infusion, cells present in the peripheral blood inhibited the growth of myeloid leukemia blasts in agar after overnight co-culture. Depletion experiments showed that LAK activity was mediated by cells of both CD3- CD16+ (NK derived) and CD3+ CD16- (T derived) subsets. LAK precursor activity in peripheral blood also significantly increased during IL-2 infusion. Increases in major histocompatibility complex (MHC) unrestricted cytotoxicity can be produced by IL-2 infusions in vivo and may result in improved relapse-free survival following chemotherapy or BMT.

Résumé :
Background: Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) can be life-threatening if not detected and treated appropriately. Diagnosing HLH can be confusing due to other similar febrile diseases that present with cytopenia. Although a decrease in natural-killer cell (NK)-cytotoxicity is an important diagnostic parameter for primary HLH, the role in adult HLH has not been well-defined. Aim: To identify the diagnostic relevance and the significant cut-off values for NK cytotoxic function, we focused on patients that presented with fever with either cytopenia or evidence of hemophagocytosis. NK cytotoxicity was calculated at the time of diagnosis and we tried to identify significant differences between the causes of disease. Finally, the overall treatment response and survival outcomes were also evaluated based on the level of NK cytotoxicity in several subgroup analyses. Methods: We prospectively enrolled 123 adult patients that presented with fever accompanied by either cytopenia in at least two lineages or marrow hemophagocytosis. A diagnosis of HLH was based on HLH-2004 criteria and treated based on HLH-94 protocol. HLH-suspected patients were initially treated with 10mg/BSA of dexamethasone, and etoposide was considered if clinical improvement was not observed within 7 days after dexamethasone. Patients other than HLH were treated with disease-specified therapy. NK-cytotoxicity was calculated at diagnosis by K562-cell direct lysis using flow-cytometry. Results: HLH (n=60) was determined to be caused by Epstein-Barr virus (EBV, n=11), infection other than EBV (n=16), malignancies (n=19), and unknown (n=14). Febrile diseases other than HLH (n=63) were diagnosed as rheumatologic disease (n=22), malignancies (n=21), infection (n=12), non-malignant hematological diseases (n=6), and unknown (n=2). The results revealed that an HLH diagnosis was significantly correlated with lower NK-cytotoxicity, compared to other diseases (12.1% vs. 26.2%, p<0.001), and a value less than 22% was a relevant cut-off for diagnosing HLH. Additionally, lower NK-cytotoxicity showed inferior 2-year overall survival in the non-malignancy subgroup (72.2% vs. 88.8%, p=0.038). Multivariate analysis showed that low NK-cytotoxicity, splenomegaly, and marrow hemophagocytosis were independent diagnostic parameters for HLH, and low NK-cytotoxicity and EBV-association were related with poor survival outcomes in non-malignant febrile diseases. Conclusion: We determined that decreased NK-cytotoxicity is a relevant marker that can be used for diagnosis of adult HLH compared with several similar febrile diseases and is also related to poor OS in non-malignant febrile diseases. Based on these results and other prospective studies, we hope that additional relevant diagnostic criteria for adult HLH can be identified in the near future.

Résumé :
Abstract Interleukin-12 (IL-12) is a heterodimeric 70-kD cytokine that can enhance the activity of cytotoxic effector cells. Although IL-12 shares some functional properties with interleukin-2 (IL-2), it appears to act via a distinct mechanism. In this report, we examined the effects of IL- 12 on the cytolytic activity and proliferation of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) obtained from patients with malignant disease. PBMC from two groups of patients were evaluated. The first group consisted of 12 individuals with metastatic solid tumors. PBMC from these patients demonstrated a marked defect in their ability to lyse natural killer (NK)-sensitive targets (K562) compared with normal volunteers. Overnight incubation with IL-12 (35 pmol/L) corrected this defect. The effect of 35 pmol/L of IL-12 on cytotoxicity was similar to that of 3 nmol/L of IL-2. In contrast, this concentration of IL-12 had little effect on cytolytic activity against an NK-resistant cell line (COLO 205). When IL-12 was added to PBMC obtained from cancer patients who were being treated with low-dose IL-2 in vivo, a dramatic increase in cytolytic activity against both NK-sensitive and -resistant tumor targets was observed. Unlike IL-2, IL-12 failed to stimulate proliferation of resting PBMC from cancer patients significantly. The second group of patients we studied comprised 13 patients who had recently undergone allogeneic bone marrow transplantation (BMT) for hematologic malignancy. In resting PBMC from these transplant recipients, IL-12 was capable of enhancing cytotoxicity against both NK- sensitive and -resistant tumor targets. Our findings indicate that IL- 12 can restore defective NK activity of PBMC from patients with metastatic cancer, as well as enhance cytolytic function of PBMC from patients after allogeneic BMT. The clinical use of IL-12 as an immunomodulator in patients with malignancy merits further consideration.

Résumé :
Anthracene was attached to light activated, ruthenium-based DNA disruptors to probe their distribution in cancer cells. The objective of this research is to understand the photophysical properties (Chapter 2), photoreactivity toward DNA and proteins (Chapter 3), and localization within cancer cells (Chapter 4) of ruthenium complexes that demonstrate promise as photodynamic therapy (PDT) agents. [(AnthbpyMe)(bpy)Ru(dpp)]2+ (1) and [(AnthbpyMe)2Ru(dpp)]2+ (2) absorb visible light with metal-to-ligand charge transfer (MLCT) transitions at 459 nm (16,000 M-1 cm-1 ) and 461 nm (21,000 M-1 cm-1 ), respectively. These species exhibit 3 MLCT emissions at λem = 661 nm and λem = 663 nm for 1 and 2, respectively, while the anthracene show emissions at 450 – 560 nm. The anthracene unit(s) quench the 3 MLCT to give quantum yields (lifetime) of Φem = 0.0059 [398(1) ns] and Φem = 0.0011 [414(1) ns] for 1 and 2, respectively. Voltammetry shows an irreversible anthracene oxidation at 1.23 – 1.28 V, RuIII/II oxidation at 1.53 – 1.55 V, and quasi-reversible reduction couples attributed to dpp0/-1 at 0.98 V. DNA gel shift assays demonstrate that complexes 1 and 2 modify DNA in the presence and absence of 3 O2 upon light activation to convert supercoiled DNA to a mixture of open circular (OC) DNA and a species that exhibit sa distinctly different migration rate than either OC and linear DNA. Binding constants, Kb, for complexes 1 and 2, toward DNA are 3.50 × 105 (3.50 × 104 ) and 4.50 × 103 (4.50 × 102 ) respectively. SDS-PAGE assays show that the complexes 1 and 2 modify bovine serum albumin (BSA) through an 3 O2-dependent mechanism upon light iii activation. The localization and PDT potency of the anthracene-Ru-dpp complexes are tested against F98 cells, which are rat glioma cells that simulate the infiltrative patterns of growth in cancer. Confocal microscopy demonstrates that complexes 1 and 2 internalize and localize primarily along the cell membrane and associate with dot-like vesicles within the cytoplasm. Complexes 1 and 2 show IC50 values of 107 µM and 85 µM, respectively, after 15 min of drug exposure and 1 h of PDT-treatment (λPDT = 455 nm).

La therapie genique par transfert du gene de la thymidine kinase du virus de l'herpes simplex de type 1 (hsv1-tk) suivi d'un traitement avec la prodrogue ganciclovir (gcv) a ete utilisee pour le traitement de divers cancers. L'efficacite de cette therapie est en partie due a l'existence d'un effet de toxicite de voisinage : le traitement au ganciclovir entraine non seulement la mort des cellules exprimant hsv1-tk mais aussi celle des cellules adjacentes non transfectees. Nous avons entrepris une etude in vitro des mecanismes moleculaires de la toxicite de ce systeme enzyme/prodrogue sur des lignees issues de tumeurs cerebrales. Les resultats obtenus montrent que le couple hsv1-tk/gcv declenche deux reactions cellulaires differentes au stress cytotoxique, selon les lignees utilisees. Dans un premier cas, le traitement au ganciclovir entraine un blocage du cycle cellulaire en phase s rapidement suivi d'une mort cellulaire associant des phenomenes d'apoptose et de necrose. Dans le second cas, le couple hsv1-tk/gcv declenche une mort cellulaire tardive et atypique, sans reel arret du cycle cellulaire. Ce phenomene, associe a l'apparition de cellules geantes et polyploides, est appele catastrophe mitotique et pourrait impliquer la proteine p21. Ces deux modes de mort cellulaire semblent independants de la proteine p53 et impliquent une activation de la proteine pro-apoptotique bax. Le gene represseur de la mort cellulaire bcl-2 inhibe en partie le processus apoptotique declenche par le systeme hsv1-tk/gcv ; ce gene pourrait donc jouer un role dans certaines formes de resistance observees au cours de cette etude. Ainsi, cette etude demontre que le phenotype tumoral va conditionner le destin cellulaire apres le traitement et s'avere donc un determinant critique de la sensibilite a cette approche therapeutique.

Oral cancer is the fourth most common cancer type among men in Taiwan, and about 94% of oral cancers are oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). In cancer pathogenesis, epigenetic modification such as DNA methylation driven gene silencing of tumor suppressor genes is recognized as a key event. Therefore, we employed the Illumina GoldenGate Methylation array, which included 1,505 CpG sites covering 807 genes to analyze oral samples from OSCC patients. Among them, Fms-related tyrosine kinase 4 (FLT4) was highly methylated in most of the OSCC samples. In addition, we employed bisulfite pyrosequencing analysis to validate the methylation level of FLT4 in OSCC lines and patient samples. We found hyper-methylation levels were observed in OSCC lines. We also treated OSCC lines with 5-aza-dC, and found that the methylation level of FLT4 was reduced. Furthermore, we examined FLT4 methylation level in patient samples and found that FLT4 was significantly hyper-methylated in OSCC samples than in normal samples. Next, we used real-time PCR and found the expression level of FLT4 in OSCC lines and OSCC samples were low, but significantly higher expression of FLT4 was found in normal oral tissues. Taken DNA methylation and gene expression profiles together, we found FLT4 was hyper-methylated in oral cancer and thus it may hold diagnostic and predictive value as a biomarker. In addition to understanding the methylation profile of OSCC, we are also interested in exploring the methylation status of drug-resistant genes in glioblastoma multiforme (GBM). GBM is the most common form of primary brain tumor in adults and is difficult to completely resect by surgery. The chemotherapy drug temozolomide (TMZ) is often used to treat GBM, however, upregulated O6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT) in some GBM can neutralize the cytotoxic effect of TMZ. We were employed pyrosequencing assay, quantitative RT-PCR and western blotting to check the methylation status and expression level of MGMT in various GBM cell lines. In addition, we knock down MGMT expression with siRNA in GBM cell lines to confirm if TMZ resistance in the cells can be reduced. Moreover, we established the GBM-initiating cells (GICs) from parental GBM cell lines, and check the difference of MGMT methylation status between parental GBM cells and GICs. Then the GICs were determined the effect of TMZ on cell viability. In summary, we found MGMT can influence TMZ efficacy in GBM, and the MGMT expression level might be a therapeutic prediction of response to TMZ.

Résumé :
No
A novel series of 1,4-disubstituted aminoanthraquinones were prepared by ipso-displacement of 1,4-difluoro-5,8-dihydroxyanthraquinones by hydroxylated piperidinyl- or pyrrolidinylalkyl-amino side chains. One aminoanthraquinone (13) was further derivatized to a chloropropyl-amino analogue by treatment with triphenylphosphine-carbon tetrachloride. The compounds were evaluated in the A2780 ovarian cancer cell line and its cisplatin-resistant variants (A2780/ cp70 and A2780/MCP1). The novel anthraquinones were shown to possess up to 5-fold increased potency against the cisplatin-resistant cells compared to the wild-type cells. Growth curve analysis of the hydroxyethylaminoanthraquinone 8 in the osteosarcoma cell line U-2 OS showed that the cell cycle is not frozen, rather there is a late cell cycle arrest consistent with the action of a DNA-damaging topoisomerase II inhibitor. Accumulative apoptotic events, using time lapse photography, indicate that 8 is capable of fully engaging cell cycle arrest pathways in G2 in the absence of early apoptotic commitment. 8 and its chloropropyl analogue 13 retained significant activity against human A2780/cp70 xenografted tumors in mice.

Résumé :
Large geographical and temporal differences in cancer incidence indicate that the causes of the majority of cases are a consequence of environmental and lifestyle factors. While many of these remain unknown, around half have known causes, and these include chemicals in air, water, and food, as well as products of industrial processes and of combustion. The major classes of chemical carcinogens and how they were discovered are described. A property shared by many of them is that they, or one or more of their metabolites, are electrophiles that can damage DNA in mammalian cells, leading to cellular responses including DNA repair, cytotoxicity, apoptosis, mutagenesis, and malignant transformation. Methods for predicting the carcinogenicity of new chemicals are part of the regulatory processes for safety assessment, and sensitive methods for monitoring human exposure to carcinogens provide insight into the aetiology of cancer. The mutational signatures that genotoxic carcinogens leave in the tumours they induce provide evidence of the chemicals that have caused them, and the approach has promise for shedding light on the many as-yet-unidentified cases of cancer worldwide.

Résumé :
Malignant brain tumor at its fourth stage (glioblastoma) is the most dangerous and an unsolved medical challenge till today. Present therapeutic strategies including chemo treatment, radiation along with surgery all together have not succeeded to control the progression of glioblastoma. Challenges in the early detection, unavailability of specific therapeutic strategy and severe cytotoxicity of available chemotherapeutics are the some of the prime causes of treatment failure. Especially presence of blood-brain barrier (BBB) highly limits pharmacological effect of conventional chemotherapy. In lieu of this, lipid based nanodrug carriers (LNCs) have now been evolved with great potential in improving the drug efficacy for the treatment of glioma. Further, LNCs engineered with specific targeting ligand might significantly reduce the dosage regimen, increase specificity, improve bioavailability and reduce off-target distribution. Such modified LNCs possess sufficient ability to cross BBB to deliver the loaded cargo(s) at target location inside the brain; thereby ensuring improved treatment outcome with less side effects than conventional treatment. This review primarily focuses on recent advancements in various engineered LNCs for the treatment of brain cancer. Also, the existing impediments for nanomedicines associated with their effective large scale synthesis or sufficient clinical application have also been highlighted.

Résumé :
( + )-Superstolide A 3, isolated from the New Caledonian sponge Neosiphonia superstes, shows interesting cytotoxicity against malignant cell lines at ~ 4 ng/mL concentration. The key transformation in the synthesis of 3 described (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2008, 130, 2722) by William R. Roush of Scripps Florida was the transannular Diels-Alder cyclization of 2, which established, in one step with high diastereocontrol, both the cis decalin and the macrolactone of 3. The octaene 1 was assembled from four stereodefined fragments. The first, the linchpin 6, was prepared from the stannyl aldehyde 4. Homologation gave the enyne 5, which on hydroboration and oxidation gave 6. Earlier, Professor Roush had optimized the crotylation of the protected alaninal 7. In this case, the Brown reagent 8 delivered the desired Felkin product 9. Protection followed by ozonolysis gave the aldehyde 10. Crotylation with the Roush-developed tartrate 11 then gave the alkene 12, setting the stage for conversion to the iodide 13. Coupling of 13 with 6 completed the preparation of 14. The third component of (+)-superstolide A 3, the phosphonium salt 21, was assembled by Brown allylation of the aldehyde 15, to give 17. Protecting group interchange followed by ozonolysis delivered 18, which via Still-Gennari homologation was carried on to 21. Condensation with the fourth component, the aldehyde 22 , and esterification with 14 then gave 1. Under high dilution Suzuki conditions 1 was converted to 2. Storage in CDCl3 for five days, or brief warming, cyclized 2 to a single diastereomer of the transannular Diels-Alder product, that was carried on to (+)-superstolide A 3. While acyclic trienes comparable to 2 could be induced to cyclize, the transannular Diels-Alder reaction proceeded with much higher diastereocontrol.

Résumé :
Prostate cancer (PCa) is the second most frequently diagnosed malignancy, as well as a leading cause of cancer-related mortality in men globally. Despite the initial response to hormonal targeted therapy, the majority of patients ultimately progress to a lethal form of the disease, castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC). Therefore, the objective of this study was to discover and develop novel treatment modalities for CRPC. Chalcones are among the highly attractive scaffolds being investigated for their antitumor activities. A library of 26 chalcone analogs were designed, synthesized and evaluated as potential therapies for CRPC. The design was guided by in-silico ADMET prediction in which analogs with favorable drug-likeness properties were prioritized. The new compounds were synthesized, purified and characterized by extensive structural elucidation studies. The compounds in vitro cytotoxicity was evaluated against two androgen receptor (AR)-negative prostate cancer cell lines (PC3 and DU145). Among the tested compounds, pyridine containing analogs (13, 15 and 16) showed potent antiproliferative activities with IC50 values ranging between 4.32-6.47 µM against PC3 and DU145 cell lines. Detailed biological studies of the lead molecule 16 revealed that it can significantly induce apoptosis through upregulation of Bax and downregulation of Bcl-2. In addition, compound 16 potently inhibited colony formation and reduced cell migration of AR-negative PCa cell lines (PC3 and DU145). The molecular pathway analysis showed that the anticancer activity of compound 16 is associated with blocking of ERK1/2 and Akt activities. Furthermore, compound 16 inhibited angiogenesis in the chick chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) model as compared to control. Structure-activity relationship study revealed that the cytotoxicity could dramatically improve via changing the methoxylation pattern by more than 2-folds (IC50 << 2.5 μM). These results indicate that pyridine-based chalcones could serve as promising lead molecules for the treatment of CRPC; thus, further in vitro and in vivo studies are warranted.

Résumé :
Prostate cancer (PCa) is the second most frequently diagnosed malignancy, as well as a leading cause of cancer-related mortality in men globally. Despite the initial response to hormonal targeted therapy, the majority of patients ultimately progress to a lethal form of the disease, termed as castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC), which currently lacks curative therapeutic options and is associated with poor prognosis. Therefore, the development of novel treatment modalities for PCa is urgently needed. Chalcones, also known as 1,3-diphenyl-2-propen-1-ones, are among the highly attractive scaffolds being investigated for their antitumor activities. Three series of 18 cyclic (tetralone-based) and two acyclic chalcone analogs, in which ring B was either substituted with nitrogen mustard or replaced by pyrrole or pyridine heterocyclic rings, were designed, synthesized and evaluated as potential therapies for CRPC. Compounds were synthesized by Claisen-Schmidt condensation reaction, purified using columnchromatography or recrystallization and characterized by 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR and LC-MS. The compounds' in-vitro cytotoxicity was evaluated against three prostate cancer cell lines (PC3, DU145, and LNCaP). Among the tested compounds, OH14, OH19 and OH22 showed potent antiproliferative activities at low micromolar levels with IC50 values ranging between 4.4 and 10 µM against PC3 and DU145 cell lines. Detailed biological studies of the lead molecule OH19 revealed that it significantly induces apoptosis through upregulation of Bax and downregulation of BCL-2. In addition, OH19 potently inhibits colony formation and reduces cell migration of androgen-independent PCa cell lines (PC3 and DU145). The molecular pathway analysis show that the anticancer activity of OH19 is associated with attenuation in the phosphorylation of Akt and ERK. Furthermore, OH19 inhibits blood vessel formation in the chick chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) model as compared to control. These results indicate that OH19 could serve as a potential promising lead molecule for the treatment of CRPC and thus, further in-vitro and invivo studies are warranted.
