A new series of styrylquinolines was designed and synthesized as anticancer agents and tubulin polymerization inhibitors. The in vitro anticancer activity of the synthesized quinolines was evaluated against four human cancer cell lines including A-2780 (human ovarian carcinoma), A-2780/RCIS (cisplatin resistant human ovarian carcinoma), MCF-7 (human breast cancer cells), MCF-7/MX (mitoxantrone resistant human breast cancer cells) and normal Huvec cells. Generally, among the forty-eight newly synthesized quinolines, compounds possessing N-trimethoxy phenyl showed stronger cytotoxic activity with IC50 values ranging from 0.38 to 5.01 μM against all four cancer cell lines. Compounds 9VII-c and 9IV-c showed significant cytotoxic activity on A-2780 cancer cells, stronger than the other compounds and comparable to reference drug CA-4. Compound 9IV-c possessing 3,4-dimethoxystyryl and N-trimethoxy phenyl groups demonstrated potent cytotoxic effects with IC50 values ranging from 0.5 to 1.66 µM on resistant cancer cells as well as their parental cells. Annexin V binding staining assay in A-2780 and MCF-7/MX cancer cells, revealed that compound 9IV-c induced early and late apoptosis. Compounds 9IV-c and 9VII-b, inhibited tubulin polymerization similar to CA4. Finally, molecular docking studies of 9IV-c and 9VII-b into the colchicine-binding site of tubulin displayed the possible interactions of these compounds with tubulin.
