Abstrakt: Novel 1,1-diaryl vinyl-sulfones analogues of combretastatin CA-4 were synthesized via Suzuki–Miyaura coupling method and screened for in-vitro antiproliferative activity against four human cancer cell lines: MDA-MB 231(breast cancer), HeLa (cervical cancer), A549 (lung cancer), and IMR-32 (neuroblast cancer), along with a normal cell line HEK-293 (human embryonic kidney cell) by employing 3-[4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl]-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay. The compounds synthesised had better cytotoxicity against the A549 and IMR-32 cell lines compared to HeLa and MDA-MB-231 cell lines. The synthesized compounds also showed significant activity on MDA-MB-231 cancer cell line with IC50 of 9.85–23.94 µM, and on HeLa cancer cell line with IC50 of 8.39–11.70 µM relative to doxorubicin having IC50 values 0.89 and 1.68 µM respectively for MDA-MB-231 and HeLa cell lines. All the synthesized compounds were not toxic to the growth of normal cells, HEK-293. They appear to have a higher binding affinity for the target protein, tubulin, PDB ID = 5LYJ (beta chain), relative to the reference compounds, CA4 (− 7.1 kcal/mol) and doxorubicin (− 7.2 kcal/mol) except for 4E, 4M, 4N and 4O. The high binding affinity for beta-tubulin did not translate into enhanced cytotoxicity but the compounds (4G, 4I, 4J, 4M, 4N, and 4R, all having halogen substituents) that have a higher cell permeability (as predicted in-silico) demonstrated an optimum cytotoxicity against the tested cell lines in an almost uniform manner for all tested cell lines. The in-silico study provided insight into the role that cell permeability plays in enhancing the cytotoxicity of this class of compounds and as potential antiproliferative agents.
