Quinamed (amonafide)

Our study demonstrates the utility of drug repositioning for identifying potential therapeutics for digestive system cancers. Amonafide and BX795 emerged as promising candidates in targeting both CRC and LIHC. Further in vivo studies and clinical trials are warranted to validate these findings.

Furthermore, our analysis revealed significant interactions between cells at different stages of PDAC and identified three promising therapeutic agents (XR-11576, Ixabepilone, and AMONAFIDE) based on correlated genes. Finally, molecular docking studies validated their potential by confirming stable binding with key protein targets. This study not only provides insights into the evolving TME of PDAC but also offers a new prognostic model and potential therapeutic strategies, contributing to improved management and treatment of this aggressive cancer.

Cell communication analysis among tumor-infiltrating immune cells reveals significant differences in the main signaling pathways at different stages of HCC progression. Finally, drug sensitivity analysis based on key genes identifies Acetalax, Allopurinol, and Amonafide as potential candidates for HCC treatment.

Potential therapeutic chemicals are alvocidib, AT-7519, kenpaullone, PHA-793887, JNJ-7706621, danusertibe, doxorubicin and analogues, mitoxantrone, podofilox, teniposide, and amonafide. This multi-omic study offers a comprehensive view of DEGs in HCC, shedding light on potential therapeutic targets and drug repurposing opportunities.

Finally, using cellMiner database and molecular docking, it was confirmed that UQCRB binds covalently to Amonafide via lysine at position 78 and threonine at position 82, while cellular assays showed that Amonafide inhibits glioma migration and invasion. Our three mitochondrial genomic composition-related features accurately predict Survival in glioma patients, and we also provide glioma chemotherapeutic agents that may be mitochondria-related targets.

The polyamine conjugate 13b displayed remarkably elevated anti-tumor and anti-metastatic effects (76.01% and 75.02%) than the positive control amonafide (46.91% and 55.77%) at 5 mg/kg in vivo...At last, 13b down-regulated the concentrations of Put, Spd and Spm by modulating polyamine metabolism key enzymes SSAT and PAO, which favored the suppression of fast growing tumor cells. Taken together, our study implies a promising strategy for naphthalimide conjugates to treat terminal cancer of HCC by targeting autophagy and tumor microenvironment with reduced toxicities and notable activities.
