AB  - A series of 23 novel anthraquinone-chalcone hybrids containing amide function was synthesized and structurally characterized. Sixteen compounds exerted strong cytotoxic activities against K562, Jurkat and HL-60 leukemia cell lines and significantly lower cytotoxic effects against normal MRC-5 cells, indicating very high selectivity in their anticancer action. The compounds 6g, 6u and 6v activate apoptosis in K562 cells through the extrinsic and intrinsic apoptotic pathway. The compound 6e triggered apoptosis in K562 cells only through the extrinsic apoptotic pathway. Treatment of K562 cells with each of these four compounds caused decrease in the expression levels of MMP2, MMP9, and VEGF, suggesting their anti-invasive, antimetastatic and antiangiogenic properties. The compounds 6g and 6v downregulated expression levels of miR-155 in K562 cells, while compounds 6e and 6u upregulated miR-155 levels in treated cells, in comparison with control cells. The structure-based 3-D QSAR models for 6f, 6e, 6i and 6l describe pro-apoptotic activity against caspase-3. © 2018 Elsevier Ltd

AB  - Commercially available pesticides were examined as Mus musculus and Homo sapiens acetylcholinesterase (mAChE and hAChE) inhibitors by means of ligand-based (LB) and structure-based (SB) in silico approaches. Initially, the crystal structures of simazine, monocrotophos, dimethoate, and acetamiprid were reproduced using various force fields. Subsequently, LB alignment rules were assessed and applied to determine the inter synaptic conformations of atrazine, propazine, carbofuran, carbaryl, tebufenozide, imidacloprid, diuron, monuron, and linuron. Afterwards, molecular docking and dynamics SB studies were performed on either mAChE or hAChE, to predict the listed pesticides’ binding modes. Calculated energies of global minima (Eglob_min) and free energies of binding (∆Gbinding) were correlated with the pesticides’ acute toxicities (i.e., the LD50 values) against mice, as well to generate the model that could predict the LD50s against humans. Although for most of the pesticides the low Eglob_min correlates with the high acute toxicity, it is the ∆Gbinding that conditions the LD50 values for all the evaluated pesticides. Derived pLD50 = f(∆Gbinding) mAChE model may predict the pLD50 against hAChE, too. The hAChE inhibition by atrazine, propazine, and simazine (the most toxic pesticides) was elucidated by SB quantum mechanics (QM) DFT mechanistic and concentration-dependent kinetic studies, enriching the knowledge for design of less toxic pesticides.
