TL;DR
Dihydroisoxazole derivative DHI9 modulated selected proteins involved in Wnt/β-catenin and Akt signalling pathways, apoptosis, and cell cycle regulation, and enhanced the cytotoxic activity of 5-fluorouracil, with predominantly synergistic interactions according to the Highest Single Agent model.
In vivo validation in PC-3 xenograft mice confirmed that 11 M exerted robust tumor growth suppression with low systemic toxicity, accompanied by DNMT3A downregulation and MAPK pathway activation, substantiating its multi-target therapeutic mechanism.
The increasing global incidence of cancer and the recurrent development of resistance to standard treatments require a rapid development of innovative, multi-targeted chemotherapeutic medicines. This study focused on the strategic design and synthesis of a range of new cyanopyridine derivatives (1a,b-5a,b) targeting th...
