A series of 1, 4-dihydroindeno-[1,2-c] pyrazole linked oxindole conjugates have been synthesized by using Knoevenagel condensation method and further evaluated for their antiproliferative activity against HeLa, A549 and MDA-MB-231 human cancer cell lines along with HEK-293 (normal human embryonic kidney cells). Among the derivatives, compounds 12a, 12b, and 12d showed excellent cytotoxicity with IC50 values ranging between 1.33 to 4.33 μM. Furthermore, detailed biological assays showed that there was accumulation of mitotic cells in G2/M phase, disruption of microtubule network and increase in the G2/M checkpoint proteins (Cyclin B1 and CDK1). Moreover, compound 12d with IC50 value of 1.33 μM showed significant upregulation of tumor suppressor proteins like p53, p21 and pro-apoptotic Bax. The molecular docking analysis demonstrated that these congeners occupy the colchicine binding pocket of the tubulin.

1,4-二氢茚并[1,2- c ]吡唑连接的羟吲哚类似物的设计,合成及生物学评价
使用Knoevenagel缩合方法合成了一系列1,4-二氢茚并-[1,2- c ]吡唑连接的羟吲哚共轭物,并进一步评估了它们对HeLa,A549和MDA-MB-231人癌细胞系的抗增殖活性HEK-293(正常人胚胎肾细胞)。在衍生物中,化合物12a,12b和12d显示出优异的细胞毒性,IC 50值在1.33至4.33μM之间 。此外,详细的生物学分析表明,在G2 / M期有丝分裂细胞的积累,微管网络的破坏和G2 / M检查点蛋白(Cyclin B1和CDK1)的增加。此外,带IC的化合物12d50值1.33μM 显示出明显的肿瘤抑制蛋白上调,如p53,p21和促凋亡Bax。分子对接分析表明,这些同类物占据了微管蛋白的秋水仙碱结合口袋。
