Abstract
The series of racemic kusunokinin derivatives were synthesized and their cytotoxic activities and cell viability on cancer cells including breast cancer (MCF-7, MDA-MB468), colon cancer (HT-29), cholangiocarcinoma (KKU-M213) and ovarian cancer (A2780) cells were investigated. The results showed that compounds 6aa, 6da, and 6de exhibited growth inhibition against breast cancer (MDA-MB468), cholangiocarcinoma (KKU-M213), colon cancer (HT-29), and ovarian cancer (A2780) cells with IC50 values (μM) 13.77 ± 0.38, 7.94 ± 0.45, and 4.22 ± 0.13 (MDA-MB468); 4.21 ± 0.21, 0.97 ± 0.03, and 0.09 ± 0.02 (KKU-M213); 22.66 ± 0.23, and 15.62 ± 0.06 (HT-29); 13.11 ± 0.37, 11.51 ± 0.43, and 1.87 ± 0.01 (A2780); respectively. Interestingly, a positive control, doxorubicin, showed less cytotoxicity than 6da and 6de on cholangiocarcinoma KKU-M213 and ovarian cancer A2780 cells. Moreover, these three synthetic compounds also exhibited less toxicity than doxorubicin on the normal cells, MMNK-1, Vero and L-929. The binding possibility towards CSF1R, 6de (−11.59 kcal/mol) and trans-(−)-kusunokinin (−11.75 kcal/mol) were similar in both docking energies and docking poses. 6de interacted with Trp550 via π-π stacking in the similar manner with trans-(−)-kusunokinin and trans-(+)-kusunokinin.
