Synthesis of a series of novel cyano- and amidinobenzothiazole derivatives 3-31 is described. All studied amidino derivatives showed noticeable antiproliferative effect on several tumor cell lines. Cyano derivatives 11-17 showed considerably less pronounced activity because of their poor solubility in aqueous cell culture medium, which was confirmed by the principal components (PC) analysis. Compounds 21, 22, 28, and 29 were tested for their effects on the cell cycle and apoptosis, whereby 22 and 29, having methyl group at the C-6 position in pyridine ring, showed drastic cell cycle perturbations that were both concentration- and time-dependent and induced apoptosis. The QSAR modeling, based on the physicochemical descriptors and on the measured biological activities, indicated the relevance of molecular polarizability and particular distribution of pharmacophores on the molecular surface for activity. In conclusion, benzothiazoles containing either isopropylamidino or imidazolyl groups will be considered as starting compounds for further investigation on lead identification.

D012995 Solubility The ability of a substance to be dissolved, i.e. to form a solution with another substance. (From McGraw-Hill Dictionary of Scientific and Technical Terms, 6th ed) Solubilities
D017209 Apoptosis A regulated cell death mechanism characterized by distinctive morphologic changes in the nucleus and cytoplasm, including the endonucleolytic cleavage of genomic DNA, at regularly spaced, internucleosomal sites, i.e., DNA FRAGMENTATION. It is genetically programmed and serves as a balance to mitosis in regulating the size of animal tissues and in mediating pathologic processes associated with tumor growth.
