Synthesis and Cytoprotective Characterization of 8-Hydroxyquinoline Betti Products.

ABSTRACT: The 8-hydroxyquinoline pharmacophore scaffold has been shown to possess a range of activities as metal chelation, enzyme inhibition, cytotoxicity, and cytoprotection. Based on our previous findings we set out to optimize the scaffold for cytoprotective activity for its potential application in central nervous system related diseases. A 48-membered Betti-library was constructed by the utilization of formic acid mediated industrial-compatible coupling with sets of aromatic primary amines such as anilines, oxazoles, pyridines, and pyrimidines, with (hetero)aromatic aldehydes and 8-hydroxiquinoline derivatives. After column chromatography and re-crystallization, the corresponding analogues were obtained in yields of 13⁻90%. The synthesized analogs were optimized with the utilization of a cytoprotection assay with chemically induced oxidative stress, and the most active compounds were further tested in orthogonal assays, a real time cell viability method, a fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS)-based assay measuring mitochondrial membrane potential changes, and gene expression analysis. The best candidates showed potent, nanomolar activity in all test systems and support the need for future studies in animal models of central nervous system (CNS) disorders.

Characterization of cytoprotective and toxic properties of iron chelator SIH, prochelator BSIH and their degradation products.

Project description:Free cellular iron catalyzes the formation of toxic hydroxyl radicals and therefore chelation of iron could be a promising therapeutic approach in pathological states associated with oxidative stress. Salicylaldehyde isonicotinoyl hydrazone (SIH) is a strong intracellular iron chelator with well documented potential to protect against oxidative damage both in vitro and in vivo. Due to the short biological half-life of SIH and risk of toxicity due to iron depletion, boronate prochelator BSIH has been designed. BSIH cannot bind iron until it is activated by certain reactive oxygen species to active chelator SIH. The aim of this study was to examine the toxicity and cytoprotective potential of BSIH, SIH, and their decomposition products against hydrogen peroxide-induced injury of H9c2 cardiomyoblast cells. Using HPLC, we observed that salicylaldehyde was the main decomposition products of SIH and BSIH, although a small amount of salicylic acid was also detected. In the case of BSIH, the concentration of formed salicylaldehyde consistently exceeded that of SIH. Isoniazid and salicylic acid were not toxic nor did they provide any antioxidant protective effect in H9c2 cells. In contrast, salicylaldehyde was able to chelate intracellular iron and significantly preserve cellular viability and mitochondrial inner membrane potential induced by hydrogen peroxide. However it was consistently less effective than SIH. The inherent toxicities of salicylaldehyde and SIH were similar. Hence, although SIH - the active chelating agent formed following the BSIH activation - undergoes rapid hydrolysis, its principal decomposition product salicylaldehyde accounts markedly for both cytoprotective and toxic properties.

Synthesis of 8-hydroxyquinoline derivatives as novel antitumor agents.

Project description:This letter describes the preparation of quinoline derivatives and their cytotoxic potentials toward human carcinoma cell lines. Among the selected compounds, 8-hydroxy-2-quinolinecarbaldehyde (3) showed the best in vitro cytotoxicity against the human cancer cell lines, including MDA231, T-47D, Hs578t, SaoS2, K562, SKHep1 (with a MTS50 range of 12.5-25 ?g/mL) and Hep3B (with a MTS50 range of 6.25±0.034 ?g/mL). The in vivo antitumor activity of compound 3 on subcutenaous Hep3B hepatocellular carcinoma xenograft in athymic nude mice was then studied. The results showed that the dose of 10 mg/kg/day of compound 3 with intraperitoneal injection for 9 days totally abolished the growth of the xenograft tumor of Hep3B with no histological damage on vital organs as compared with the control. The experimental results suggested that compound 3 has a good potential as an antitumor agent.

Synthesis and anti-phytopathogenic activity of 8-hydroxyquinoline derivatives.

Project description:Phytopathogenic fungi have become a serious threat to the quality of agricultural products, food security and human health globally, necessitating the need to discover new antifungal agents with de novo chemical scaffolds and high efficiency. A series of 8-hydroxyquinoline derivatives were designed and synthesized, and their antifungal activity was evaluated against five phytopathogenic fungi. In vitro assays revealed that most of the tested compounds remarkably impacted the five target fungi and their inhibitory activities were better than that of the positive control azoxystrobin. Compound 2, in particular, exhibited the highest potency among all the tested compounds, with an EC50 of 0.0021, 0.0016, 0.0124, 0.0059 and 0.0120 mM respectively against B. cinerea, S. sclerotiorum, F. graminearum, F. oxysporum and M. oryzae, followed by compound 5c. The morphological observations of optical microscopy and scanning electron microscopy revealed that compounds 2 and 5c caused mycelial abnormalities of S. sclerotiorum. Futhermore, the results of in vivo antifungal activity of compounds 2 and 5c against S. sclerotiorum showed that 5c possessed stronger protective and curative activity than that of 2, and the curative effects of 5c at 40 and 80 μg mL-1 (84.18% and 95.44%) were better than those of azoxystrobin (77.32% and 83.59%). Therefore, compounds 2 and 5c are expected to be novel lead structures for the development of new fungicides.

Characterization of the 8-hydroxyquinoline scaffold for inhibitors of West Nile virus serine protease.

Project description:West Nile virus (WNV) is a mosquito-borne member of flaviviruses that causes significant morbidity and mortality especially among children. There is currently no approved vaccine or antiviral therapeutic for human use. In a previous study, we described compounds containing the 8-hydroxyquinoline (8-HQ) scaffold as inhibitors of WNV serine protease (NS2B/NS3pro) in a high throughput screen (HTS) using the purified WNV NS2B/NS3pro as the target. In this study, we analyzed potencies of some commercially available as well as chemically synthesized derivatives of 8-HQ by biochemical assays. An insight into the contribution of various substitutions of 8-HQ moiety for inhibition of the protease activity was revealed. Most importantly, the substitution of the N1 of the 8-HQ ring by -CH- in compound 26 significantly reduced the inhibition of the viral protease by this naphthalen-1-ol derivative. The kinetic constant (K(i)) for the most potent 8-HQ inhibitor (compound 14) with an IC(50) value of 2.01 ± 0.08 ?M using the tetra-peptide substrate was determined to be 5.8 ?M. This compound inhibits the WNV NS2B/NS3pro by a competitive mode of inhibition which is supported by molecular modeling.

Antioxidant and Cytoprotective Properties of Plant Extract from Dry Flowers as Functional Dyes for Cosmetic Products.

Project description:Nowadays, natural dyes are expected by the cosmetic and food industries. In contrast to synthetic dyes, colorants derived from natural sources are more environmentally friendly and safer for human health. In this work, plant extracts from Gomphrena globasa L., Clitoria ternatea L., Carthamus tinctorius L., Punica granatum L. and Papaver rhoeas L. as the natural and functional dyes for the cosmetics industry were assessed. Cytotoxicity on keratinocyte and fibroblast cell lines was determined as well as antioxidant and anti-aging properties by determining their ability to inhibit the activity of collagenase and elastase enzymes. In addition, the composition of the extracts was determined. The obtained extracts were also applied in face cream formulation and color analyses were performed. It has been shown that the obtained extracts were characterized by no cytotoxicity and a high antioxidant potential. The extracts also show strong ability to inhibit the activity of collagenase and moderate ability to inhibit elastase and provide effective and long-lasting hydration after their application on the skin. Application analyses showed that the extracts of P. rhoeas L., C. ternatea L. and C. tinctorius L. can be used as effective cosmetic dyes that allow for attainment of an intense and stable color during the storage of the product. The extracts of P. granatum L. and G. globasa L., despite their beneficial effects as active ingredients, did not work effectively as cosmetic dyes, because cosmetic emulsions with these extracts did not differ significantly in color from emulsions without the extract.

Green Synthesis of 8-Hydroxyquinoline Barium as Visible-Light-Excited Luminescent Material Using Mechanochemical Activation Method.

Project description:Using high-energy UV-light to excite 8-hydroxyquinoline barium (BaQ2) is a short slab for this emerging area of organic luminescent materials. However, using visible light to excite BaQ2 has not been reported. To solve this problem, this study proposes the mechanochemical activation method to synthesize luminescent material of visible-light-excited BaQ2. This research applies infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive spectroscopy, and fluorescence spectrometry to analyze the structure and luminescence properties. XRD shows that BaQ2 has a high crystallinity, small crystalline size, and high purity. According to the Scherrer equation, the mean particle size is 56 nm. The results of fluorescence spectrometry show that the excitation spectrum of the product is red-shifted, and the maximum excitation wavelength is 408 nm. According to these results, the product has a high fluorescence and can be excited under visible light. This research explains the high efficiency of the mechanochemical-activation method by thermodynamic and dynamic principles. This research also exemplifies luminescence theory of BaQ2 and at the microlevel explains the theory of visible-light-excited theory and the principle of luminescent intensity enhancement from the point of crystallography.

Synthesis of red-shifted 8-hydroxyquinoline derivatives using click chemistry and their incorporation into phosphorylation chemosensors.

Project description:Protein phosphorylation is a ubiquitous post-translational modification, and protein kinases, the enzymes that catalyze the phosphoryl transfer, are involved in nearly every aspect of normal, as well as aberrant, cell function. Here we describe the synthesis of novel, red-shifted 8-hydroxyquinoline-based fluorophores and their incorporation into peptidyl kinase activity reporters. Replacement of the sulfonamide group of the sulfonamido-oxine (1, Sox) chromophore, which has been previously used in kinase sensing, by a 1,4-substituted triazole moiety prepared via click chemistry resulted in a significant bathochromic shift in the fluorescence excitation (15 nm) and emission (40 nm) maxima for the Mg(2+) chelate. Furthermore, when a click derivative was incorporated into a chemosensor for MK2, the kinase accepted the new substrate as efficiently as the previously reported Sox-based sensor. Taken together, these results extend the utility range of kinase sensors that are based on chelation-enhanced fluorescence (CHEF).

Characterization of the membrane-inserted C-terminus of cytoprotective BCL-XL.

Project description:BCL-XL is a dominant inhibitor of apoptosis and a significant anti-cancer drug target. Endogenous BCL-XL is integral to the mitochondrial outer membrane (MOM). BCL-XL reconstituted in detergent-free lipid bilayer nanodiscs is anchored to the nanodisc lipid bilayer membrane by tight association of its C-terminal tail, while the N-terminal head retains the canonical structure determined for water-soluble, tail-truncated BCL-XL, with the surface groove solvent-exposed and available for BH3 ligand binding. To better understand the conformation and dynamics of this key region of BCL-XL we have developed methods for isolating the membrane-embedded C-terminal tail from its N-terminal head and for preparing protein suitable for structural and biochemical studies. Here, we outline the methods for sample preparation and characterization and describe previously unreported structural and dynamics features. We show that the C-terminal tail of BCL-XL forms a transmembrane ?-helix that retains a significant degree of conformational dynamics. We also show that the presence of the intact C-terminus destabilizes the soluble state of the protein, and that the small fraction of soluble recombinant protein produced in Escherichia coli is susceptible to proteolytic degradation of C-terminal residues beyond M218. This finding impacts the numerous previous studies where recombinant soluble BCL-XL was presumed to be full-length. Nevertheless, the majority of recombinant BCL-XL produced in E. coli is insoluble and protected from proteolysis. This protein retains the complete C-terminal tail and can be reconstituted in lipid bilayers in a folded and active state.

Synthesis, antioxidant and cytoprotective activity evaluation of C-3 substituted indole derivatives.

Project description:A series of fifteen indole derivatives substituted at the C-3 position were synthesized and characterized. The antioxidant activity of all derivatives was investigated by three in vitro antioxidant assays, and the derivative with pyrrolidinedithiocarbamate moiety was the most active as a radical scavenger and Fe3+-Fe2+ reducer. It can be stated that possible hydrogen and electron transfer mechanism is suggested for the quenching of the free radical. Moreover, the indolyl radical stabilization and the presence of unsubstituted indole nitrogen atom are mandatory for the observed antioxidant activity, which strongly depends on the type of the substituent directly connected to the methylene group at the C-3 position. Human red blood cells (RBC) have been used as a cell model to study derivatives interaction with the cell membrane. Haemolytic activity and RBC shape transformation were observed for certain derivatives in a concentration-dependent manner. However, most of the derivatives at sublytic concentration showed high cytoprotective activity against oxidative haemolysis induced by 2,2'-azobis(2-methylpropionamidine) dihydrochloride (AAPH). The cytoprotective properties of derivatives can be explained mostly due to their interactions with the RBC membrane components. Taking together, theoretical estimations and experimental data confirm the beneficial interactions between the selected C-3 substituted indole derivatives and the RBC membrane under oxidative stress conditions. These results encourage us to further structural optimization of C-3 substituted indole derivatives as potent antioxidant compounds.

Crystallization-Induced Diastereoisomer Transformation of Dihydroartemisinic Aldehyde with the Betti Base.

Project description:Artemisinin is an important drug to fight malaria. It is produced either by extraction or via a semisynthetic route involving enzyme engineering. A key intermediate to produce artemisinin by the enzymatic route is dihydroartemisinic aldehyde (DHAAl). However, control of the absolute configuration of the stereocenter ? to the aldehyde is highly challenging. Herein we report a protocol that allows the diastereomeric enrichment of a mixture of (11R)/(11S)-DHAAl to the desired (11R)-DHAAl by utilizing a crystallization-induced diastereomer transformation induced by the Betti base. In addition, the Betti base can be quantitatively recovered and reused after the reaction.
