Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of Azamacrolide Comprising the Triazole Moiety as Quorum Sensing Inhibitors.

ABSTRACT: Novel azamacrolides comprising the triazole moiety were synthesized and evaluated for their quorum sensing inhibitor activities on the Agrobacterium tumefaciens. It was found that the inhibition rate of compound Z12-3 at 200 mg/L (0.45 mM) can reach 67%. The potential binding modes between these molecules and the TraR QS receptor was performed by molecular docking. The results showed that the two nitrogen atoms in the triazole ring of Z12-3 formed hydrogen bonds with GLN-2, and the carbonyl group (C=O) in the amide formed hydrogen bonds with water. It was worth noting that the carbonyl group on the macrolides formed hydrogen bonds with the G-106 base in the DNA. These azamacrolides may block quorum sensing expression through key amino acid residues or DNA bases in the TraR QS receptor by hydrogen-bonded.

Synthesis and biological evaluation of triazole-containing N-acyl homoserine lactones as quorum sensing modulators.

Project description:Many bacterial species are capable of assessing their local population densities through a cell-cell signaling mechanism termed quorum sensing (QS). This intercellular communication process is mediated by small molecule or peptide ligands and their cognate protein receptors. Numerous pathogens use QS to initiate virulence once they achieve a threshold cell number on a host. Consequently, approaches to intercept QS have attracted considerable attention as potential anti-infective therapies. Our interest in the development of small molecule tools to modulate QS pathways motivated us to evaluate triazole-containing analogs of natural N-acyl L-homoserine lactone (AHL) signals as non-native QS agonists and antagonists in Gram-negative bacteria. We synthesized 72 triazole derivatives of five broad structure types in high yields and purities using efficient Cu(I)-catalyzed azide-alkyne couplings. These compounds were evaluated for their ability to activate or inhibit two QS receptors from two prevalent pathogens - LasR from Pseudomonas aeruginosa and AbaR from Acinetobacter baumannii- using bacterial reporter strains. Several triazole derivatives were identified that were capable of strongly modulating the activity of LasR and AbaR. These compounds represent a new and synthetically accessible class of AHL analogs, and could find utility as chemical tools to study QS and its role in bacterial virulence.

N-Heterocycles Scaffolds as Quorum Sensing Inhibitors. Design, Synthesis, Biological and Docking Studies.

Project description:Quorum sensing is a communication system among bacteria to sense the proper time to express their virulence factors. Quorum sensing inhibition is a therapeutic strategy to block bacterial mechanisms of virulence. The aim of this study was to synthesize and evaluate new bioisosteres of N-acyl homoserine lactones as Quorum sensing inhibitors in Chromobacterium violaceum CV026 by quantifying the specific production of violacein. Five series of compounds with different heterocyclic scaffolds were synthesized in good yields: thiazoles, 16a-c, thiazolines 17a-c, benzimidazoles 18a-c, pyridines 19a-c and imidazolines 32a-c. All 15 compounds showed activity as Quorum sensing inhibitors except 16a. Compounds 16b, 17a-c, 18a, 18c, 19c and 32b exhibited activity at concentrations of 10 µM and 100 µM, highlighting the activity of benzimidazole 18a (IC50 = 36.67 µM) and 32b (IC50 = 85.03 µM). Pyridine 19c displayed the best quorum sensing inhibition activity (IC50 = 9.66 µM). Molecular docking simulations were conducted for all test compounds on the Chromobacterium violaceum CviR protein to gain insight into the process of quorum sensing inhibition. The in-silico data reveal that all 15 the compounds have higher affinity for the protein than the native AHL ligand (1). A strong correlation was found between the theoretical and experimental results.

Structure-Based Design, Synthesis, and Biological Evaluation of Triazole-Based smHDAC8 Inhibitors.

Project description:Schistosomiasis is a neglected tropical disease caused by parasitic flatworms of the genus Schistosoma, which affects over 200 million people worldwide and leads to at least 300,000 deaths every year. In this study, initial screening revealed the triazole-based hydroxamate 2?b (N-hydroxy-1-phenyl-1H-1,2,3-triazole-4-carboxamide) exhibiting potent inhibitory activity toward the novel antiparasitic target Schistosoma mansoni histone deacetylase 8 (smHDAC8) and promising selectivity over the major human HDACs. Subsequent crystallographic studies of the 2?b/smHDAC8 complex revealed key interactions between the inhibitor and the enzyme's active site, thus explaining the unique selectivity profile of the inhibitor. Further chemical modifications of 2?b led to the discovery of 4-fluorophenoxy derivative 21 (1-[5-chloro-2-(4-fluorophenoxy)phenyl]-N-hydroxy-1H-1,2,3-triazole-4-carboxamide), a nanomolar smHDAC8 inhibitor (IC50 =0.5??M), exceeding the smHDAC8 inhibitory activity of 2?b and SAHA (vorinostat), while exhibiting an improved selectivity profile over the investigated human HDACs. Collectively, this study reveals specific interactions between smHDAC8 and the synthesized triazole-based inhibitors and demonstrates that these small molecules represent promising lead structures, which could be further developed in the search for novel drugs for the treatment of schistosomiasis.

Design, synthesis and biological evaluation of N-sulfonyl homoserine lactone derivatives as inhibitors of quorum sensing in Chromobacterium violaceum.

Project description:A novel series of N-sulfonyl homoserine lactone derivatives 5a-l has been designed, synthesized and evaluated for quorum sensing inhibitory activities towards violacein production. Of the compounds synthesized, compound 5h was found to possess an excellent level of enantiopurity (99.2% e.e.). The results indicated that compounds bearing an ortho substituent on their phenyl ring exhibited excellent levels of inhibitory activity against violacein production. Compounds 5h and 5k in particular, with IC?? values of 1.64 and 1.66 µM, respectively, were identified as promising lead compounds for further structural modification.

Synthesis and biological evaluation of selective phosphonate-bearing 1,2,3-triazole-linked sialyltransferase inhibitors.

Project description:The critical role of sialyltransferase (ST) enzymes in tumour cell growth and metastasis, as well as links to multi-drug and radiation resistance, has seen STs emerge as a target for potential antimetastatic cancer treatments. One promising class of ST inhibitors that improve upon the pharmacokinetic issues of previous inhibitors is the 1,2,3-triazole-linked transition-state analogues. Herein, we present the design and synthesis of a new generation of 1,2,3-triazole-linked sialyltransferase inhibitors, along with their biological evaluation demonstrating increased potency for phosphonate bearing compounds. The six most promising inhibitors presented in this work exhibited a greater number of binding modes for hST6Gal I over hST3Gal I, with K i ranging from 3-55 μM. This work highlights phosphonate bearing triazole-linked compounds as a promising class of synthetically accessible ST inhibitors that warrant further investigation.

Synthesis and biological evaluation of novel N-?-haloacylated homoserine lactones as quorum sensing modulators.

Project description:Novel N-?-haloacylated homoserine lactones, in which a halogen atom was introduced at the ?-position of the carbonyl function of the N-acyl chain, have been studied as quorum sensing (QS) modulators and compared with a library of natural N-acylated homoserine lactones (AHLs). The series of novel analogues consists of ?-chloro, ?-bromo and ?-iodo AHL analogues. Furthermore, the biological QS activity of the synthetic AHL analogues compared to the natural AHLs was evaluated. Halogenated analogues demonstrated a reduced activity in the Escherichia coli JB523 bioassay, with the ?-iodo lactones being the less active ones and the ?-chloro AHLs the most potent QS agonists. Most of the ?-haloacylated analogues did not exhibit a significant reduction when tested in the QS inhibition test. Therefore, these novel analogues could be utilized as chemical probes for QS structure-activity studies.

Design, synthesis and biological evaluation of tacrine-1,2,3-triazole derivatives as potent cholinesterase inhibitors.

Project description:We report herein the design and synthesis of a series of 11 novel tacrine-1,2,3-triazole derivatives via a Cu(i)-catalyzed alkyne-azide 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition (CuAAC) reaction. The newly synthesized compounds were evaluated for their inhibition activity against Electrophorus electricus acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and horse serum butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) as potential drug targets for Alzheimer's disease (AD). Among the designed compounds, compound 8a2 exhibited potent inhibition against AChE and BChE with IC50 values of 4.89 ?M and 3.61 ?M, respectively. Further structure-activity relationship (SAR) and molecular modeling studies may provide valuable insights into the design of better tacrine-triazole analogues with potential therapeutic applications for AD.

Design, synthesis, and biological evaluation of abiotic, non-lactone modulators of LuxR-type quorum sensing.

Project description:Quorum sensing (QS) is a cell-cell signaling mechanism that allows bacteria to monitor their population size and alter their behavior at high cell densities. Gram-negative bacteria use N-acylated L-homoserine lactones (AHLs) as their primary signals for QS. These signals are susceptible to lactone hydrolysis in biologically relevant media, and the ring-opened products are inactive QS signals. We have previously identified a range of non-native AHLs capable of strongly agonizing and antagonizing QS in Gram-negative bacteria. However, these abiotic AHLs are also prone to hydrolysis and inactivation and thereby have a relatively short time window for use (?12-48 h). Non-native QS modulators with reduced or no hydrolytic instability could have enhanced potencies and would be valuable as tools to study the mechanisms of QS in a range of environments (for example, on eukaryotic hosts). This study reports the design and synthesis of two libraries of new, non-hydrolyzable AHL mimics. The libraries were screened for QS modulatory activity using LasR, LuxR, and TraR bacterial reporter strains, and several new, abiotic agonists and antagonists of these receptors were identified.

Design, synthesis and biological evaluation of sulfamide and triazole benzodiazepines as novel p53-MDM2 inhibitors.

Project description:A series of sulfamide and triazole benzodiazepines were obtained with the principle of bioisosterism. The p53-murine double minute 2 (MDM2) inhibitory activity and in vitro antitumor activity were evaluated. Most of the novel benzodiazepines exhibited moderate protein binding inhibitory activity. Particularly, triazole benzodiazepines showed good inhibitory activity and antitumor potency. Compound 16 had promising antitumor activity against the U-2 OS human osteosarcoma cell line with an IC50 value of 4.17 ?M, which was much better than that of nutlin-3. The molecular docking model also successfully predicted that this class of compounds mimicked the three critical residues of p53 binding to MDM2.
