Product Description
Benzothiazole is a natural heterocyclic nucleus. Benzothiazole heterocyclic core has various bioactivities such as anti-cancer, anti-bacterial, anti-diabetic, anti-inflammatory, anti-viral and anti-leishmania.
Benzothiazole is a heterocyclic compound consisting of a benzene ring fused to a thiazole ring. Benzothiazole-based compounds play significant roles in modern therapeutic chemistry owing to their significant effects and integration into various pharmaceutical agents. They exhibit a wide range of biological and pharmacological actions, including anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory, anti-viral, anti-malarial, anti-tubercular, anti-diabetic, and neuroprotective activities. Benzothiazole derivatives have been investigated for the synthesis of agents targeting various diseases.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Benzothiazole derivatives target a diverse array of molecular targets. They have shown promise as GPR183 antagonists for inflammatory bowel disease, as strong inhibitors of phosphoinositide 3-kinase γ (PI3Kγ) linked to inflammatory and autoimmune diseases, and as RIPK1 inhibitors for cell death-related disorders. Benzothiazole derivatives also target Hsp90, TRPC3/6, androgen receptors, glutathione peroxidase, and kinases including SCD and CLK in cancer. They modulate EGFR, JAK/STAT, ERK/MAPK, and PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathways.
ln Vitro
Benzothiazole derivatives exhibit potent in vitro anticancer activity. Compound 7m showed significant anticancer activity with IC50 values of 2.32±0.03 µM against MCF-7, 3.57±0.05 µM against PC-3, and 2.93±0.05 µM against HeLa cancer cell lines. Compound 7d demonstrated antiproliferative effects with IC50 values of 10.83 μM (MCF-7), 12.68 μM (HeLa), and 106.75 μM (HUVEC). Benzothiazole derivatives also exhibit antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and antiviral activities.
ln Vivo
In vivo activity of benzothiazole derivatives has been demonstrated, with some showing enhanced in vivo efficacy through optimal structural alterations. Benzothiazole-based DHFR inhibitors have shown promise in bacterial infections. Compounds targeting HSV-1, HCV, USP7, NS3/4A, and SARS-CoV-2 have been identified. Further in vivo studies are needed to fully characterize the therapeutic potential of specific benzothiazole derivatives.
Enzyme Assay
In vitro enzyme assays for benzothiazole derivatives involve measuring their inhibition of various targets, including kinases, PI3Kγ, RIPK1, and DHFR. The assays typically use purified recombinant enzymes and measure enzymatic activity in the presence of the compound. IC50 values are determined from dose-response curves. Binding affinity can be assessed using surface plasmon resonance or isothermal titration calorimetry.
Cell Assay
In vitro cellular assays for benzothiazole derivatives involve treating cancer cell lines (e.g., MCF-7, HeLa, PC-3, A549) with varying concentrations of the compound. Cell viability is assessed using MTT or other assays. Apoptosis is evaluated by Annexin V staining, caspase activity assays, or DNA fragmentation analysis. Antimicrobial activity is assessed using standard bacterial and fungal growth inhibition assays.
Animal Protocol
In vivo animal experiments for benzothiazole derivatives would typically involve administering the compound to tumor-bearing mouse models for anticancer studies, or to models of inflammatory or infectious diseases. Efficacy is evaluated by measuring tumor growth inhibition, inflammatory markers, or pathogen load. The compound's pharmacokinetic properties and safety profile are also assessed in these studies.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Pharmacokinetic data for benzothiazole derivatives vary depending on the specific compound. Many benzothiazole-based compounds have been developed as orally active drugs. Their absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion properties are influenced by the substituents on the benzothiazole scaffold. The heterocyclic framework allows interaction with a variety of molecular targets.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Volume (End) box and choose the correct unit (mL)
