Synthesis and in vitro antiproliferative evaluation of novel hybrids from 1,3,4-thiadiazole and benzisoselenazolone.
Novel hybrids from 1,3,4-thiadiazole and benzisoselenazolone were designed, synthesized and evaluated for their in vitro antiproliferative activities by CCK-8 assay against three types of human cancer cell lines, SMMC-7721, MCF-7 and A549 cells. The preliminary bioassay results demonstrated that all tested compounds 4a-p showed potent antiproliferative activities, and some compounds exhibited better effects than positive control ethaselen and 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) against various cancer cell lines. Furthermore, compound 4g showed significant antiproliferative activities against SMMC-7721 cells with an IC50 value of 2.08 µM. Compounds 4b and 4m displayed highly effective biological activities against MCF-7 cells with an IC50 values of 2.03 and 2.06 µM, respectively. Compound 4i exhibited the best inhibitory effect against A549 cells with an IC50 value of 1.03 µM.

Inhibition of thioredoxin reductase by a novel series of bis-1,2-benzisoselenazol-3(2H)-ones: Organoselenium compounds for cancer therapy.
Thioredoxin reductase (TrxR) is critical for cellular redox regulation and is involved in tumor proliferation, apoptosis and metastasis. Its C-terminal redox-active center contains a cysteine (Cys497) and a unique selenocysteine (Sec498), which are exposed to solvent and easily accessible. Thus, it is becoming an important target for anticancer drugs. Selective inhibition of TrxR by 1,2-(bis-1,2-benzisoselenazol-3(2H)-one)ethane (4a) prevents proliferation of several cancer cell lines both in vivo and in vitro. Using the structure of 4a as a starting point, a series of novel bis-1,2-benzisoselenazol-3(2H)-ones was designed, prepared and tested to explore the structure-activity relationships (SARs) for this class of inhibitor and to improve their potency. Notably, 1,2-(5,5'-dimethoxybis(1,2-benzisoselenazol-3(2H)-one))ethane (12) was found to be more potent than 4a in both in vitro and in vivo evaluation. Its binding sites were confirmed by biotin-conjugated iodoacetamide assay and a SAR model was generated to guide further structural modification.
