The silver metal complexes containing benzimidazole nuclei, which are known to have a wide variety of biological activity properties, were prepared using benzimidazolium salts. The aim of the study was to seek out the antiproliferative effect of synthesized N-heterocyclic carbene complexes. The cytotoxicity of complexes was tested by using the MTT method with human breast epithelial adenocarcinomas (MDA-MB-231, and MCF-7), human colorectal adenocarcinoma (DLD-1), human prostate adenocarcinoma (PC-3), and mouse fibroblastic healthy (L929) cell lines. Ploxal-S was used as a positive control drug. The complexes (<strong>2a</strong>, <strong>2b</strong>) were found to be more effective than ploxal-S. Therefore, these metal complexes can be further investigated as potential anticancer agents. The wet-lab study uncovered the anticancer activity of the synthesized NHC-silver complexes. Molecular modeling methods were used to shed light on the probable mode of action for the detected potency. A study reported that NHC-silver complexes exhibited their anticancer activity by acting on apoptosis-inducing factors (AIF). Hence, computational methods were used to elucidate the binding potential of the synthesized NHC-silver complexes to AIF and thus form a stable complex with the protein. The docking study demonstrated that compounds <strong>2a</strong> and <strong>2b</strong> had the potential to bind to the AIF target. The molecular dynamics (MD) simulation study indicated that the two compounds formed a stable complex with the protein. Furthermore, the two compounds would remain inside the protein's binding pocket during the simulation period. The density functional theory (DFT) study disclosed that compound <strong>2b</strong> might have a slightly higher chemical stability relative to compound <strong>2a</strong>.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":17276,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the Indian Chemical Society","volume":"102 3","pages":"Article 101602"},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2025-01-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143146256","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
