Derivatives of a new heterocyclic system - pyrano[3,4-c][1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-a]pyridines: synthesis, docking analysis and neurotropic activity.

ABSTRACT: 8-Hydrazino derivatives of pyrano[3,4-c]pyridines and derivatives of the new heterocyclic system 3-thioxopyrano[3,4-c][1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-a]pyridines on the basis of methanesulfonates of pyrano[3,4-c]pyridinium were synthesized by optimization of a previously used method. Derivatives of alkylsulfonyl pyrano[3,4-c][1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-a]pyridines were also synthesized. All compounds were evaluated for their neurotropic activity. Among all the compounds tested for anticonvulsant activity by pentylenetetrazole and maximal electric shock seizure (MES) tests, six compounds (5a, 5b, 5e, 5g, 5j, and 5p) appeared to be active. These compounds were also evaluated for their anxiolytic as well as antidepressant activities using "open field", "elevated plus maze" (EPM), and "forced swimming" tests, respectively. It should be mentioned that compounds tested by the "rotating rod" method did not affect neuromuscular coordination. The most active compound appeared to be 5g in all tests. Docking studies of the most active compounds were performed on the GABAA receptor, SERT and 5-HT1A receptor.

Project description:BackgroundHeterocyclic compounds and their fused analogs, which contain pharmacophore fragments such as pyridine, thiophene and pyrimidine rings, are of great interest due to their broad spectrum of biological activity. Chemical compounds containing two or more pharmacophore groups due to additional interactions with active receptor centers usually enhance biological activity and can even lead to a new type of activity. The search for new effective neurotropic drugs in the series of derivatives of heterocycles containing pharmacophore groups in organic, bioorganic and medical chemistry is a serious problem.MethodsModern methodology of drugs involves synthesis, physicochemical study, molecular modeling and selection of active compounds through virtual screening and experimental evaluation of the biological activity of new chimeric compounds with pharmacophore fragments. For the synthesis of new compounds, classical organic methods were used and developed. For the evaluation of neurotropic activity of new synthesized compounds, some biological methods were used according to indicators characterizing anticonvulsant, sedative and antianxiety activity as well as side effects. For docking analysis, various soft ware packages and methods were used.ResultsAs a result of multistep reactions, 11 new, tri- and tetracyclic heterocyclic systems were obtained. The studied compounds exhibit protection against pentylenetetrazole (PTZ) seizures as well as some psychotropic effects. The biological assays evidenced that nine of the eleven studied compounds showed a high anticonvulsant activity by antagonism with pentylenetetrazole. The toxicity of the compounds is low, and they do not induce muscle relaxation in the studied doses. According to the study of psychotropic activity, it was found that the selected compounds have an activating behavior and anxiolytic effects on the "open field" and "elevated plus maze" (EPM) models. The data obtained indicate the anxiolytic (antianxiety) activity of the derivatives of tricyclic thieno[2,3-b]pyridines and tetracyclic pyridothieno[3,2-d]pyrimidin-8-ones, especially pronounced in compounds 3b-f and 4e. The studied compounds increase the latent time of first immobilization on the "forced swimming" (FS) model and exhibit antidepressant effects; compounds 3e and 3f especially exhibit these effects, similarly to diazepam. Docking studies revealed that compounds 3c and 4b bound tightly in the active site of γ-aminobutyric acid type A (GABAA) receptors with a value of the scoring function that estimates free energy of binding (∆G) at -10.0 ± 5 kcal/mol. Compound 4e showed the best affinity ((∆G) at -11.0 ± 0.54 kcal/mol) and seems to be an inhibitor of serotonin (SERT) transporter. Compounds 3c-f and 4e practically bound with the groove of T4L of 5HT_1A and blocked it completely, while the best affinity observed was in compound 3f ((∆G) at -9.3 ± 0.46 kcal/mol).ConclusionsThe selected compounds have an anticonvulsant, activating behavior and anxiolytic effects and at the same time exhibit antidepressant effects.
