However, their mechanism of action remains unclear. Studies using fluorogenic edAF derivatives suggest that the ferrocenyl moiety undergoes oxidation or decomposition within cells, resulting in the formation of unknown products. Interestingly, this process is not significantly facilitated by H2O2, indicating that this intracellular oxidant does not alter edAFs in the cellular environment. To identify alternative endogenous oxidants, NO is investigated as a potential candidate. Under aerobic conditions, NO is found to efficiently induce the oxidation and decomposition of edAFs. This transformation is mediated by an electrophilic nitrosation reaction, followed by nitroso-oxime tautomerism and subsequent degradation of the ferrocenyl moiety with the release of ligand-derived oxime 7 and iron ions. These findings suggest that NO may play a key role in the intracellular modification of edAFs, potentially contributing to their anticancer activity or their metabolism or both. Building on this mechanism, an effective probe is developed for detecting NO in living cells and identifying sites of inflammation in vivo. These probes are based on a modular design that enables facile substitution of the fluorescent dye, allowing straightforward customization for diverse applications both in cellulo and in vivo.","PeriodicalId":147,"journal":{"name":"ChemMedChem","volume":" ","pages":"e202500356"},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2025-08-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144937245","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The CCP was synthesized and characterized using spectroscopic and analytical techniques, demonstrating stability under physiological conditions and controlled release of chrysin in reducing environments, as confirmed by HPLC, LC-MS, and 1H NMR studies. Biomolecular interaction studies demonstrated its binding to BSA and ctDNA. In vitro cytotoxicity assays in HeLa cells revealed that CCP effectively masked chrysin's activity, exhibiting an IC50 value > 100 µM compared to free chrysin (IC50 = 15 ± 2 µM). The activation of CCP with sodium ascorbate reduced its IC50, confirming its ability to release chrysin in a biologically relevant context. Live-dead assays validated the selective cytotoxicity of activated CCP, with increased cell death observed under reducing conditions. These findings highlight CCP as a promising prodrug system, combining the pharmacological benefits of chrysin with the advantages of metal-drug conjugates for hypoxia-activated cancer therapy.","PeriodicalId":147,"journal":{"name":"ChemMedChem","volume":" ","pages":"e202500232"},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2025-08-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144881788","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To optimize its inhibitory activity, a series of 35 indoline derivatives are synthesized and evaluated.

Mechanistic investigations reveal that compound 14 functions as a novel radical-trapping antioxidant, exhibiting lipid peroxidation scavenging capacity comparable to that of Fer-1.

Traditional methods of wound healing are prone to several limitations, like infections, oxidative stress, and development of secondary wounds. Management of oxidative stress is an interesting platform to deal with chronic wounds. For this study, novel derivatives of protocatechuic acid, a naturally occurring phenolic acid, were designed by modifying the carboxylic acid moiety while preserving the hydroxyl groups for radical scavenging. So, a series of amide conjugates were synthesized by incorporating various amine moieties. Glucose conjugates were obtained through both click chemistry and direct coupling strategies and a chlorinated derivative was also prepared. The antioxidant potential of the compounds was screened using DPPH assay, followed by in vitro DCFDA assay on HEK-293T cell line. Top 5 lead molecules were checked for biocompatibility through MTT assay, which provided us with top 2 leads, Compounds 12 and 17 which were examined for a wound healing study on Wistar rats along with the starting compound 1. It was observed that Compound 17 demonstrated excellent wound tissue regeneration on day 12, as compared to the control group, suggesting the promising role of triazole and glucose moieties conjugation for relieving oxidative stress and wound management.","PeriodicalId":147,"journal":{"name":"ChemMedChem","volume":"20 18","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2025-08-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144870578","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
