The ROS generation activity has been studied by EPR spin trapping technique using A549, MDA-MB-231 cell lines, and T lymphoblast cell line MOLT-4. It was shown that Q1 is able to penetrate into these cells and participate in redox reactions with the formation of a semiquinone radical. Fe(III) chelate complex formation results in much slower kinetics of ROS generation compared with pure Q1, which could be connected with a lower penetration through the cell membrane.</p><h3>Graphical abstract</h3>\u0000<div><figure><div><div><picture><source><img></source></picture></div></div></figure></div></div>","PeriodicalId":491,"journal":{"name":"Biometals","volume":"37 6","pages":"1643 - 1656"},"PeriodicalIF":4.1,"publicationDate":"2024-09-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142278431","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Within this varied spectrum of illnesses, malaria and oxidative damage emerge as prominent obstacles that have persistently affected human health. The motivation for exploring the antioxidant potential of transition metal (II) complexes with tridentate Schiff base ligands is driven by the need for effective treatments against malaria and oxidative stress-related conditions. Both malaria and oxidative damage are significant global health concerns. Transition metal complexes can potentially offer enhanced anti-malarial and antioxidant activities, providing a dual benefit. To explore the aforementioned facts and examine the therapeutic potential, the previously synthesized pyrrolopyrimidinehydrazide-3-chlorobenzaldehyde, such as HPPHmCB ligand(1)andtheirMn(II),Fe(II),Co(II),Ni(II), Pd(II),Cu(II),Zn(II),Cd(II),Hg(II)complexes(2–10) of benzaldehydes and pyrrolopyrimidinehydrazide were proposed for in vitro anti-malarial and antioxidant investigation. These compounds were assessed for their anti-malarial efficacy against <i>Plasmodium falciparum</i> using a micro assay protocol, with IC₅₀ values indicating the concentration required to inhibit parasite maturation by 50%. The Hg(II) complex displays pronounced antimalarial activity with an IC₅₀ value of 1.98 ± 0.08 µM, closely aligning with the efficacy of quinine, whereas Zn(II), Cu(II), Pd(II) complexes demonstrates most significant anti-malarial activity, with IC₅₀ values close to the reference compound quinine. The antioxidant activity of the compounds was evaluated using the DPPH assay, with several metal complexes such as Cu(II)and Zn(II) showing strong potential in neutralizing oxidative stress. Furthermore, molecular docking simulations were conducted to explore the binding interactions of the compounds with PfNDH2, providing insights into their pharmacological potential. The study also examined the electronic properties, solubility, and potential hepatotoxicity of the compounds. The findings suggest that the metal complexes could be promising candidates for further development as anti-malarial agents, offering enhanced potency compared to the base compound.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":491,"journal":{"name":"Biometals","volume":"37 6","pages":"1713 - 1737"},"PeriodicalIF":4.1,"publicationDate":"2024-09-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142255450","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
