The present manuscript pertains to the design and synthesis of a series of 3-hydroxyindole-substituted β-carbolines/tetrahydro-β-carbolines with an aim to explore their antiproliferative structure-activity relationship against breast cancer. The conjugate with an optimum combination of a flexible tetrahydro-β-carboline core, a tertiary alcoholic group along with a chloro substituent on the indole ring, proved to be the most active compound. It displayed IC values of 13.61 and 22.76 μM against MCF-7 (ER+) and MDA-MB-231 (ER-) cells, respectively. The docking studies were found to be consistent with experimental results owing to the stronger binding affinity of the synthesized conjugates via hydrophobic and H-bonding interactions.
本手稿涉及一系列3-羟基吲哚取代的β-咔啉/四氢-β-咔啉的设计与合成,旨在探索它们对乳腺癌的抗增殖构效关系。具有柔性四氢-β-咔啉核心、叔醇基团以及吲哚环上氯取代基的最佳组合的共轭物被证明是最具活性的化合物。它对MCF-7(ER+)和MDA-MB-231(ER-)细胞的IC值分别为13.61和22.76 μM。由于合成的共轭物通过疏水和氢键相互作用具有更强的结合亲和力,对接研究结果与实验结果一致。
