    Cancer is one of the deadliest diseases in the world today, and the incidence of cancer is increasing. Leukemia is a type of blood cancer defined as the uncontrolled proliferation of abnormal leukocytes in the blood and bone marrow. The HL-60 (human promyelocytic leukemia) cell line, derived from a single patient with acute promyelocytic leukemia, provides a unique in vitro model system for studying the cellular and molecular events involved in the proliferation and differentiation of leukemic cells. In this study, antitumor activities on the HL-60 of some of the resynthesized benzoxazine derivatives (BXN-01 and BXN-02) were investigated. The results of in vitro studies obtained were compared a standard drug, etoposide. In vitro results showed that BXN-01 and BXN-02 were found to be extremely effective compared to etoposide (IC50 value: 10 mu M) with IC50 values of 5 nM and 25 nM, respectively. Furthermore, molecular docking studies were carried out for preliminary prediction of possible interaction modes between compounds and the active site of the target macromolecules, hTopo II alpha, HDAC2, and RXRA. Then, in silico ADME/Tox studies were performed to predict drug-likeness and pharmacokinetic properties of BXN-01 and BXN-02. Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma

    Common use of classical antibiotics has caused to the growing emergence of many resistant strains of pathogenic bacteria. Therefore, we aimed to synthesize a number of N-(2-hydroxy-(4 or 5)-nitrophenyl)benzamide derivatives as a new class of antimicrobial compounds. Moreover, our second goal is to predict the interaction between active structures and enzymes (DNA-gyrase and FtsA) in the binding mode. In this study, thirteen N-(2-hydroxy-(4 or 5-nitrophenyl)-substituted-benzamides were synthesized and determined for their antimicrobial activity using the microdilution method. According to this work, none of the compounds showed any activity against Candida albicans and its clinical isolate. Some of the benzamides (4N1, 5N1, 5N2) displayed very significant activity against Staphylococcus aureus and MSSA with < 4 mu g/ml MIC value, even they were found to be more potent than ceftazidime. 4N1 was also found to be more effective than gentamicin against Enterococcus faecalis clinical isolate. Molecular docking studies revealed that 4N1, 5N1, and 5N2 showed a good interactions with DNA-gyrase. Moreover, 5N1 has interacted with FtsA enzyme in the binding mode, as well. Only compound 5N4 displayed very good activity against Escherichia coli ATCC 25922. These findings showed us that 4N1, 5N1, 5N2, and 5N4 could be lead compounds to discover new antibacterial candidates against multidrug-resistant strains.
