RESUMEN
In this study, a series of 18 histone deacetylases inhibitors (HDACis), derived from our in-house anti-cancer trans-β-arylacryl 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline-based scaffold, were designed, synthesized, and antitumor evaluated. HDAC1 inhibitory activity assay showed that compounds 13d-13f and 13m-13o demonstrated attractive enzymatic activity with IC50 at single-digit nanomolar or subnanomolar level.In addition, 13o exerted superior anti-proliferative activity (A549, IC50 = 0.89 μmol·L-1; HCT116, IC50 = 0.49 μmol·L-1) to that of vorinostat (SAHA).Besides,13e, with the most potent HDAC1 enzymatic activity (IC50 = 3.8 nmol·L-1), also displayed attractive cellular activity (A549, IC50 = 1.74 μmol·L-1; HCT116, IC50 = 2.43 μmol·L-1). The Western blot analysis illustrated that 13e treatment increased the acetylation of H3 and α-tubulin in a dose-dependent manner in A549 cells. In summary, 13e and 13o deserve further functional investigation.
RESUMEN
Electronic tongue is one kind of bionic detection technologies, which can objectively reflect the taste of drugs based on electrochemical principle. In this paper, the development histories of electronic tongue both of potential type and voltammetry type were introduced, including their detection principles and key innovation technologies. In order to comprehensively improve the understanding of electronic tongue, its technological progresses, such as the study of dedicated sensors or biosensors for specific tastes, and the development of miniaturized or hybrid devices, were also discussed in detail. And the challenges and countermeasures in the application of electronic tongue were analyzed to provide some suggestions for its further technology promotion.
