Abstract
BCL2, an antiapoptotic protein, is overexpressed in many cancers, making it a good cancer treatment target. In 30 years, few BCL2 targeting agents have shown clinical significance. This work designed new amide thiazolidine derived from isoniazid targeting BCL2 and tested them on cancer cell lines, for binding affinities, the novel candidates were docked to the BCL2 target receptor. IC50 of compound A8 46.67 ± 0.9 and 57.14 ± 0.88 μg/ml against PC3 and HEPG2 respectively with docking score −7.6 Kcal/mol with 6GL8 make it the best compound in this series. Melting point, FT-IR, elemental microanalysis (CHN), 1HNMR, and 13CNMR confirmed chemical structures.Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma
