In this paper, a series of thiosemicarbazone derivatives containing different aromatic heterocyclic groups were synthesized and the tridentate donor system of the lead compound was optimized. Most of the target compounds showed improved antiproliferative activity against MGC803 cells. SAR studies revealed that compound 5d displayed significant advantages in inhibition effect with an IC50 value of 0.031 μM, and better selectivity between cancer and normal cells than 3-AP and DpC (about 15- and 5-fold improved respectively). Besides, compound 5d showed selective antiproliferative activity in not only other cancer cells but also different gastric cancer cell lines. In-depth mechanism studies showed that compound 5d could induce mitochondria-related apoptosis which might be related to the elevation of intracellular ROS level, and cause cell cycle arrest at S phase. Moreover, 5d could evidently suppress the cell migration and invasion by blocking the EMT (epithelial–mesenchymal transition) process. Consequently, our studies provided a lead optimization strategy of thiosemicarbazone derivatives which would contribute to discover high-efficiency and low-toxicity agents for the treatment of gastric cancer.

A new class of triazinoindole-bearing thiosemicarbazides (1-25) was synthesized and evaluated for α-glucosidase inhibitory potential. All synthesized analogs exhibited excellent inhibitory potential, with IC50 values ranging from 1.30 ± 0.01 to 35.80 ± 0.80 μM when compared to standard acarbose (an IC50 value of 38.60 ± 0.20 μM). Among the series, analogs 1 and 23 were found to be the most potent, with IC50 values of 1.30 ± 0.05 and 1.30 ± 0.01 μM, respectively. The structure- activity relationship (SAR) was mainly based upon bringing about different substituents on the phenyl rings. To confirm the binding interactions, a molecular docking study was performed.

With the aim to explore the interest of the thiosemicarbazide scaffold for the inhibition of the indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO), a promising therapeutic target for anticancer immunotherapy, a series of 32 phenylthiosemicarbazide derivatives was prepared and their IDO inhibition evaluated. Our study demonstrated that among these derivatives, compound 14 characterized with a 4-cyanophenyl group on the thiosemicarbazide was the more potent IDO inhibitor in this series being endowed with an IC50 of 1.2 μM. The SAR depicted showed that substitution in the 3- and 4-position relative to the phenylthiosemicarbazide are very promising whereas substitution in the 2-position always leads to less potent or inactive derivatives. In fact the study highlighted a novel interesting scaffold for IDO inhibition for further development.
