Based on the Warburg effect and the increased demand for glucose by tumor cells, a targeted drug delivery strategy was developed. A series of new glycoconjugates with increased ability to interact with GLUT transporters, responsible for the transport of sugars to cancer cells, were synthesized. Glycoconjugation was performed using the C-6 position in the sugar unit, as the least involved in the formation of hydrogen bonds with various aminoacids residues of the transporter. The carbohydrate moiety was connected with the 8-hydroxyquinoline scaffold via a 1,2,3-triazole linker. For the obtained compounds, several in vitro biological tests were performed using HCT-116 and MCF-7 cancer cells as well as NHDF-Neo healthy cells. The highest cytotoxicity of both cancer cell lines in the MTT test was noted for glycoconjugates in which the triazole-quinoline was attached through the triazole nitrogen atom to the d-glucose unit directly to the carbon at the C-6 position. These compounds were more selective than the analogous glycoconjugates formed by the C-1 anomeric position of d-glucose. Experiments with an EDG inhibitor have shown that GLUTs can be involved in the transport of glycoconjugates. The results of apoptosis and cell cycle analyses by flow cytometry confirmed that the new type of glycoconjugates shows pro-apoptotic properties, without significantly affecting changes in the distribution of the cell cycle. Moreover, glycoconjugates were able to decrease the clonogenic potential of cancer cells, inhibit the migration capacity of cells and intercalate with DNA.
