Popis: Ribavirin and its analogues exhibit an in vitro antiproliferative effect in cancer cells. In this work, we studied the biological activities of a number of alkyl/aryloxymethyl derivatives of ribavirin’s aglycon—1,2,4-triazole-3-carboxamide. Alkyl/arylxymethyl derivatives of 1,2,4-triazole-3-carboxamide with substitutions at the fifth or first position of the triazole ring, were synthesized and their antiproliferative and antimicrobial effects were assessed. For both series, the presence of an antiproliferative effect was investigated, and 1-alkyl/aryloxymethyl derivatives were shown an antimicrobial potential against a Gram-positive bacteria Micrococcus luteus and Gram-negative bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The obtained results showed that the n-decyloxymethyl derivatives induced leukemia cell death at low micromolar concentrations. We confirmed that n-decyloxymethyl derivatives of ribavirin inhibited the cell cycle progression and induced an accumulation of leukemia cells in the subG1-phase. The molecular docking results suggest that alkyl/aryloxymethyl derivatives may act by inhibiting translation initiation, due to interference with eIF4E assembly. The outcome results revealed that active derivatives (1- or 5-n-decyloxymethyl-1,2,4-triazole-3-carboxamides) can be considered as a lead compound for anticancer treatments.
