Description
Summary:The emergence of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3Kα) in cancer development has accentuated its significance as a potential target for anticancer drug design. Twenty one derivatives of -phenyl-4-hydroxy-6-methyl-2-quinolone-3-carboxamide were synthesized and characterized using NMR ( H and C) and HRMS. The derivatives displayed inhibitory activity against human epithelial colorectal adenocarcinoma (Caco-2) and human colon cancer (HCT-116) cell lines: compounds (IC Caco-2 = 98 µM, IC HCT-116 = 337 µM) and (IC Caco-2 = 13 µM, IC HCT-116 = 240.2 µM). Results showed that compound significantly affected the gene encoding AKT, BAD, and PI3K. The induced-fit docking (IFD) studies against PI3Kα demonstrated that the scaffold accommodates the kinase domains and forms H-bonds with significant binding residues.
