Abstract
Background: Triazine ring is a prominent structural motif found in some azanucleosides whose efficiency improved many times in the research area of antitumor agents.
Objective: In this study, we have designed and synthesized novel 2-[(5,6-diphenyl-1,2,4-triazin-3-yl)thio]-N-(6- substituted benzo/(thiazol)-2-yl)acetamide (2a-d, 3a-f) derivatives using 1,2,4-triazine core along with two important heterocyles, thiazole and benzothiazole rings.
Method: The acquired ten final compounds were screened to investigate their antitumor activity against lung adenocarcinoma cell line, A549 and mouse fibroblast cell line, NIH/3T3. Five compounds with higher antiproliferative activity have been further studied to evaluate whether the cell death due to necrosis or apoptosis using flow cytometry.
Results and Conclusion: Compound 3b bearing 6-methylbenzothiazole moiety has been established as the most active antitumor compound with a selective profile and higher apoptotic cell level. All final componds were also screened against acetylcholine/butyrylcholinesterase enzymes to state their anticholinesterase activity.
Keywords: Triazine, thiazole, benzothiazole, antiproliferative activity, lung cancer, apoptosis.

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
