Abstract

In this paper, 41 hybrid compounds containing diaryl-1,5-diazole and morpholine structures acting as dual COX-2/5-LOX inhibitors have been designed, synthesized and biologically evaluated. Most of them showed potent antiproliferative activities and COX-2/5-LOX inhibitory in vitro. Among them, compound A33 displayed the most potency against cancer cell lines (IC50 = 6.43-10.97 μM for F10, HeLa, A549 and MCF-7 cells), lower toxicity to non-cancer cells than celecoxib (A33: IC50 = 194.01 μM vs.celecoxib: IC50 = 97.87 μM for 293T cells), and excellent inhibitory activities on COX-2 (IC50 = 0.17 μM) and 5-LOX (IC50 = 0.68 μM). Meanwhile, the molecular modeling study was performed to position compound A33 into COX-2 and 5-LOX active sites to determine the probable binding models. Mechanistic studies demonstrated that compound A33 could block cell cycle in G2 phase and subsequently induced apoptosis of F10 cells. Furthermore, compound A33 could significantly inhibit tumor growth in F10-xenograft mouse model, and pharmacokinetic study of compound A33 indicated that it showed better stability in vivo. In general, compound A33 could be a promising candidate for cancer therapy.
