Structure-Activity Relationship Studies of 3- or 4-Pyridine Derivatives of DS-6930.

ABSTRACT: Derivatization efforts were continued to discover backups for a potent selective PPAR? modulator, DS-6930. In this Letter, the replacement of 2-pyridine ring in DS-6930 with 3- or 4-pyridyl group is reported. As the introduction of substituents on the pyridine ring did not provide potent partial agonists, modifications of benzimidazole ring were explored to discover potent intermediate agonists. 4'-Alkoxy substituted benzimidazoles failed to show potent efficacy in vivo, whereas 7'-fluoro benzimidazole 3g (DS19161384) was found to result in robust plasma glucose reductions with excellent DMPK profiles.

Anti-dengue-virus activity and structure-activity relationship studies of lycorine derivatives.

Project description:Dengue is a systemic viral infection that is transmitted to humans by Aedes mosquitoes. No vaccines or specific therapeutics are currently available for dengue. Lycorine, which is a natural plant alkaloid, has been shown to possess antiviral activities against flaviviruses. In this study, a series of novel lycorine derivatives were synthesized and assayed for their inhibition of dengue virus (DENV) in cell cultures. Among the lycorine analogues, 1-acetyllycorine exhibited the most potent anti-DENV activity (EC50 =0.4 μM) with a reduced cytotoxicity (CC50 >300 μM), which resulted in a selectivity index (CC50 /EC50 ) of more than 750. The ketones 1-acetyl-2-oxolycorine (EC50 =1.8 μM) and 2-oxolycorine (EC50 =0.5 μM) also exhibited excellent antiviral activities with low cytotoxicity. Structure-activity relationships for the lycorine derivatives against DENV are discussed. A three-dimensional quantitative structure-activity relationship model was established by using a comparative molecular-field analysis protocol in order to rationalize the experimental results. Further modifications of the hydroxy group at the C1 position with retention of a ketone at the C2 position could potentially lead to inhibitors with improved overall properties.

Synthesis of ureidomuraymycidine derivatives for structure-activity relationship studies of muraymycins.

Project description:One of the key constituents of the muraymycins is the 6-membered cyclic guanidine, (2S,3S)-muraymycidine (or epi-capreomycidine). In order to diversify the structure of the oligopeptide moiety of the muraymycins for thorough structure-activity relationship studies, we have developed a highly stereoselective synthesis of ureidomuraymycidine derivatives with the lactone 4a.

Cinnamic Derivatives as Antitubercular Agents: Characterization by Quantitative Structure-Activity Relationship Studies.

Project description:Tuberculosis, caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), remains one of the top ten causes of death worldwide and the main cause of mortality from a single infectious agent. The upsurge of multi- and extensively-drug resistant tuberculosis cases calls for an urgent need to develop new and more effective antitubercular drugs. As the cinnamoyl scaffold is a privileged and important pharmacophore in medicinal chemistry, some studies were conducted to find novel cinnamic acid derivatives (CAD) potentially active against tuberculosis. In this context, we have engaged in the setting up of a quantitative structure-activity relationships (QSAR) strategy to: (i) derive through multiple linear regression analysis a statistically significant model to describe the antitubercular activity of CAD towards wild-type Mtb; and (ii) identify the most relevant properties with an impact on the antitubercular behavior of those derivatives. The best-found model involved only geometrical and electronic CAD related properties and was successfully challenged through strict internal and external validation procedures. The physicochemical information encoded by the identified descriptors can be used to propose specific structural modifications to design better CAD antitubercular compounds.

Structure-Activity Relationship Studies of 3-epi-Deoxynegamycin Derivatives as Potent Readthrough Drug Candidates.

Project description:(+)-Negamycin (1), a natural dipeptidic antibiotic bearing a hydrazide structure, exhibits a readthrough activity toward the nonsense mutation of the dystrophin gene and restores dystrophin expression in muscles of Duchenne muscular dystrophy model mdx mice. Herein to develop more potent readthrough compounds, we performed a structure-activity relationship (SAR) study of 3-epi-deoxynegamycin (2), which is also another natural readthrough compound with little antimicrobial activity, focusing on the main carbon chain length. We found that one carbon atom shorter derivative 9b shows a higher readthrough activity than 1 and 2. Further derivatization at the carboxylic acid part of 9b demonstrates that its meta-chlorobenzyl ester derivative 17e, which has a higher ClogP value, exhibits a more potent readthrough activity than 9b. Interestingly, in the cell-free protein expression system, the readthrough activity of 17e drastically decreases compared to that in the cell-based assay. These results suggest that benzyl ester-type derivatives enhance the hydrophobicity and function as prodrugs to produce active compound 9b in living cell systems.

Exploring Amantadine Derivatives as Urease Inhibitors: Molecular Docking and Structure-Activity Relationship (SAR) Studies.

Project description:This article describes the design and synthesis of a series of novel amantadine-thiourea conjugates (3a-j) as Jack bean urease inhibitors. The synthesized hybrids were assayed for their in vitro urease inhibition. Accordingly, N-(adamantan-1-ylcarbamothioyl)octanamide (3j) possessing a 7-carbon alkyl chain showed excellent activity with IC50 value 0.0085 ± 0.0011 µM indicating that the long alkyl chain plays a vital role in enzyme inhibition. Whilst N-(adamantan-1-ylcarbamothioyl)-2-chlorobenzamide (3g) possessing a 2-chlorophenyl substitution was the next most efficient compound belonging to the aryl series with IC50 value of 0.0087 ± 0.001 µM. The kinetic mechanism analyzed by Lineweaver-Burk plots revealed the non-competitive mode of inhibition for compound 3j. Moreover, in silico molecular docking against target protein (PDBID 4H9M) indicated that most of the synthesized compounds exhibit good binding affinity with protein. The compound 3j forms two hydrogen bonds with amino acid residue VAL391 having a binding distance of 1.858 Å and 2.240 Å. The interaction of 3j with amino acid residue located outside the catalytic site showed its non-competitive mode of inhibition. Based upon these results, it is anticipated that compound 3j may serve as a lead structure for the design of more potent urease inhibitors.

Structure activity relationship of brevenal hydrazide derivatives.

Project description:Brevenal is a ladder frame polyether produced by the dinoflagellate Karenia brevis. This organism is also responsible for the production of the neurotoxic compounds known as brevetoxins. Ingestion or inhalation of the brevetoxins leads to adverse effects such as gastrointestinal maladies and bronchoconstriction. Brevenal shows antagonistic behavior to the brevetoxins and shows beneficial attributes when administered alone. For example, in an asthmatic sheep model, brevenal has been shown to increase tracheal mucosal velocity, an attribute which has led to its development as a potential treatment for Cystic Fibrosis. The mechanism of action of brevenal is poorly understood and the exact binding site has not been elucidated. In an attempt to further understand the mechanism of action of brevenal and potentially develop a second generation drug candidate, a series of brevenal derivatives were prepared through modification of the aldehyde moiety. These derivatives include aliphatic, aromatic and heteroaromatic hydrazide derivatives. The brevenal derivatives were tested using in vitro synaptosome binding assays to determine the ability of the compounds to displace brevetoxin and brevenal from their native receptors. A sheep inhalation model was used to determine if instillation of the brevenal derivatives resulted in bronchoconstriction. Only small modifications were tolerated, with larger moieties leading to loss of affinity for the brevenal receptor and bronchoconstriction in the sheep model.

Bis-(imidazole/benzimidazole)-pyridine derivatives: synthesis, structure and antimycobacterial activity.

Project description:Aim: Over the last decades, few significant achievements have been made in tuberculosis (TB) therapy. As a result, there is an urgent need for new anti-TB drugs. Results: Two new classes of bis-(imidazole/benzimidazole)-pyridine derivatives were designed, synthesized and evaluated for their antimycobacterial activity. Conclusion: The synthesis is efficient and straightforward, involving only two successive N-alkylations. The anti-TB assay reveal that our compounds have an excellent anti-TB activity against both replicating and nonreplicating Mtb, are not cytotoxic, exhibited a very good intracellular activity and are active against drug-resistant Mtb strains, some compounds have a bactericidal mechanism. The absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion and toxicity studies performed for one compound are promising, indicating that it is a good candidate for a future drug.

Structure-activity relationship studies of lipophilic teicoplanin pseudoaglycon derivatives as new anti-influenza virus agents.

Project description:Six series of semisynthetic lipophilic glycopeptide antibiotic derivatives were evaluated for in vitro activity against influenza A and B viruses. The new teicoplanin pseudoaglycon-derived lipoglycopeptides were prepared by coupling one or two side chains to the N-terminus of the glycopeptide core, using various conjugation methods. Three series of derivatives bearing two lipophilic groups were synthesized by attaching bis-alkylthio maleimides directly or through linkers of different lengths to the glycopeptide. Access to the fourth and fifth series of compounds was achieved by click chemistry, introducing single alkyl/aryl chains directly or through a tetraethylene glycol linker to the same position. A sixth group of semisynthetic derivatives was obtained by sulfonylation of the N-terminus. Of the 42 lipophilic teicoplanin pseudoaglycon derivatives tested, about half showed broad activity against influenza A and B viruses, with some of them having reasonable or no cytotoxicity. Minor differences in the side chain length as well as lipophilicity appeared to have significant impact on antiviral activity and cytotoxicity. Several lipoglycopeptides were also found to be active against human coronavirus.

Structure-activity relationship studies of SETD8 inhibitors.

Project description:SETD8 (also known as SET8, PR-SET7, or KMT5A (lysine methyltransferase 5A)) is the only known lysine methyltransferase that catalyzes monomethylation of histone H4 lysine 20 (H4K20). In addition to H4K20, SETD8 monomethylates non-histone substrates such as the tumor suppressor p53 and proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA). Because of its role in regulating diverse biological processes, SETD8 has been pursued as a potential therapeutic target. We recently reported the first substrate-competitive SETD8 inhibitor, UNC0379 (1), which is selective for SETD8 over 15 other methyltransferases. We characterized this inhibitor in a battery of biochemical and biophysical assays. Here we describe our comprehensive structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies of this chemical series. In addition to 2- and 4-substituents, we extensively explored 6- and 7-substituents of the quinazoline scaffold. These SAR studies led to the discovery of several new compounds, which displayed similar potencies as compound 1, and interesting SAR trends.
