Abstract
A new series of pyrano[2,3-d:6,5-d']dipyrimidine derivatives were synthesized and evaluated for their in vitro anticancer activity. The structures of all the synthesized compounds were confirmed by 1H NMR, 13C NMR, 15N NMR, HR-MS and FT-IR spectral analyses. The cytotoxic activities of these compounds against four human cancer (HeLa, SKBR-3, HepG2, and Caco-2) cell lines were determined. The synthesized compounds showed high selectivity, and four compounds (5e, 5f, 5g and 5i) showed excellent potent cytotoxicity against HeLa, SKBR-3, and HepG2 cancer cell lines. Furthermore, four other compounds (5a, 5c, 5b and 5d) have exhibited significant cytotoxicity activity in the SKBR-3 and HepG2 cell lines respectively, with moderate cytotoxicity seen in the HeLa cell line. Additionally, a molecular docking study was conducted to predict the anti-cancer behavior of the synthesized compounds via inhibition of the allosteric site of Human Kinesin Eg5.
Keywords: Synthesis, pyrimidines, pyranes, cytotoxicity activity, HeLa, SKBR-3, HepG2.

Induction of cell death in cancer cells by modulating telomerase activity using small molecule drugs
Telomeres are distinctive but short stretches present at the corners of chromosomes and aid in stabilizing chromosomal makeup. Resynthesis of telomeres supported by the activity of reverse transcriptase ribonucleoprotein complex telomerase. There is no any telomerase activity in human somatic cells, but the stem cells and germ cells undergone telomerase ...read more
