Colorectal cancer (CRC) is closely associated with chronic inflammation, and the NF-κB pathway acts as a central regulator of the inflammatory response that promotes tumor progression. In this study, we examined the anticancer and anti-inflammatory potential of anilino-1,4-naphthoquinone derivatives (compounds 3, 8, an...

Findings establish compound 12 as a promising lead candidate for the development of new anti-colorectal cancer agents and provide mechanistic insights into the interplay between COX-2 inhibition, inflammatory modulation, and apoptosis induction in inflammation-associated colorectal carcinogenesis.
DNA topoisomerase IIα (Topo IIα) is essential for maintaining genomic stability during DNA replication and mitosis and is highly expressed in cancer cells, making it a promising target for anticancer therapy. In this study, bis-thiourea derivatives were investigated for their Topo IIα inhibitory activity and anticancer...
