Click Inspired Synthesis of Novel Cinchonidine Glycoconjugates as Promising Plasmepsin Inhibitors.

ABSTRACT: Among all the malaria parasites, P. falciparum is the most predominant species which has developed drug resistance against most of the commercial anti-malarial drugs. Thus, finding a new molecule for the inhibition of enzymes of P. falciparum is the pharmacological challenge in present era. Herein, ten novel molecules have been designed with an amalgamation of cinchonidine, carbohydrate moiety and triazole ring by utilizing copper-catalyzed click reaction of cinchonidine-derived azide and clickable glycosyl alkynes. The molecular docking of developed molecules showed promising results for plasmepsin inhibition in the form of effective binding with target proteins.

Molecular design and synthesis of novel salicyl glycoconjugates as elicitors against plant diseases.

Project description:A new series of salicyl glycoconjugates containing hydrazide and hydrazone moieties were designed and synthesized. The bioassay indicated that the novel compounds had no in vitro fungicidal activity but showed significant in vivo antifungal activity against the tested fungal pathogens. Some compounds even had superior activity than the commercial fungicides in greenhouse trial. The results of RT-PCR analysis showed that the designed salicyl glycoconjugates could induce the expression of LOX1 and Cs-AOS2, which are the specific marker genes of jasmonate signaling pathway, to trigger the plant defense resistance.

Novel adamantyl clubbed iminothiazolidinones as promising elastase inhibitors: design, synthesis, molecular docking, ADMET and DFT studies.

Project description:Porcine Pancreatic Elastase (PPE) is a serine protease that is homologous to trypsin and chymotrypsin that are involved in various pathologies like inflammatory disease, Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), acute respiratory distress syndrome, cystic fibrosis, and atherosclerosis. PPE if remained uninhibited would lead to digestion of important connective tissue. We developed new structurally diverse series of adamantyl-iminothiazolidinone hybrids to divulge elastase inhibition assay. To identify potent derivatives, in silico screening was conducted and in vitro studies disclosed that the compounds 5a, 5f, 5g, and 5h showed excellent binding energies and low IC50 values. In silico studies including molecular docking, DFT studies (using the B3LYP/SVP basis set in the gas phase) drug likeness scores and molecular dynamic simulation studies were conducted to evaluate protein-ligand interactions and to determine the stability of top ranked conformation. In silico studies further supported the results of in vitro experiments and suggest these derivatives as novel inhibitors of elastase enzyme.

Design and Synthesis of New Withaferin A Inspired Hedgehog Pathway Inhibitors.

Project description:Withanolides constitute a well-known family of plant-based alkaloids characterised by widespread biological properties, including the ability of interfering with Hedgehog (Hh) signalling pathway. Following our interest in natural products and in anticancer compounds, we report here the synthesis of a new class of Hh signalling pathway inhibitors, inspired by withaferin A, the first isolated member of withanolides. The decoration of our scaffolds was rationally supported by in silico studies, while functional evaluation revealed promising candidates, confirming once again the importance of natural products as inspiration source for the discovery of novel bioactive compounds. A stereoselective approach, based on Brown chemistry, allowed the obtainment and the functional evaluation of the enantiopure hit compounds.

Click chemistry-assisted synthesis of triazolo linked podophyllotoxin conjugates as tubulin polymerization inhibitors.

Project description:A series of new triazolo linked 4β-amidopodophyllotoxin conjugates (9a-l) were synthesized using click chemistry and evaluated for their antitumor activity against four human cancer cell lines. Among them, two compounds (9c and 9j) showed significant anticancer activity with IC50 values of 0.9 and 0.07 μM, respectively. Biological studies are conducted into the cell-cycle distribution of these conjugates inducing G2/M-phase arrest, apart from an increase in the levels of caspase-3 proteins, followed by apoptotic cell death. A tubulin polymerization assay analysis showed that these compounds effectively inhibit microtubule assembly in HeLa cells and, moreover, Hoechst 33258 and Immunohistochemistry staining suggest that these compounds induce cell death by apoptosis. The docking studies showed that compounds 9c and 9j interact and bind efficiently with the tubulin protein at the colchicine site.

Synthesis of endohedral metallofullerene glycoconjugates by carbene addition.

Project description:Endohedral metallofullerene glycoconjugates were synthesized under mild conditions by carbene addition using appropriate glycosylidene-derived diazirine with La(2)@I(h)-C(80). NMR spectroscopic studies revealed that the glycoconjugate consists of two diastereomers of [6,6]-open mono-adducts. The electronic properties were characterized using Vis/NIR absorption spectroscopy and electrochemical measurements. This study demonstrates that glycosylidene carbene is useful to incorporate carbohydrate moieties onto endohedral metallofullerene surfaces.

Synthesis of Novel Phthalazinedione-Based Derivatives with Promising Cytotoxic, Anti-bacterial, and Molecular Docking Studies as VEGFR2 Inhibitors.

Project description:The parent ester methyl-3-[2-(4-oxo-3-phenyl-3,4-dihydro-phthalazin-1-yloxy)-acetylamino] has 18 compounds. The starting material for alkanoates, their corresponding hydrazides, hydrazones, and dipeptides were produced by chemoselective O-alkylation of 2-phenyl-2,3-dihydrophthalazine-1,4-dione with ethyl chloroacetate(4-oxo-3-phenyl-3,4-dihydro-phthalazin-1-yloxy) acetic acid methyl ester. The starting ester was hydrazinolyzed, then azide coupled with amino acid ester hydrochloride to produce several parent esters, and then hydrazinolyzed to produce parent hydrazides. These hydrazides were used to make a series of dipeptides by reacting them with amino acid ester hydrochloride under azide coupling conditions, and they were also condensed with a number of aldehydes to make the hydrazones. These derivatives were subjected to cytotoxicity against HCT-116 and MDA-MB-231 cells and anti-bacterial and molecular docking studies. Results indicated that the tested compounds, especially 7c and 8b with the phenyl phthalazinone moieties, had promising cytotoxicity against the HCT-116 cells with IC50 values of 1.36 and 2.34 μM, respectively. Additionally, the promising compounds 7c and 8b exhibited poor cytotoxicity against WISH cells with much higher IC50 values, so they were safe against normal cells. Compound 8c exhibited potent anti-bacterial activity with inhibition zones of 12 and 11 mm against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli, respectively. The molecular docking results of compounds 7c and 8b revealed a good binding disposition and the ligand-receptor interactions like the co-crystallized ligand of the VEGFR2 protein, which may be the proposed mode of action. Finally, compounds 7c and 8b exhibited good ADME pharmacokinetics with good drug-likeness parameters. Hence, detailed studies for the mechanism of action of such compounds are highly recommended for the development of new potent anti-cancer and anti-bacterial agents.

Bis-thiobarbiturates as Promising Xanthine Oxidase Inhibitors: Synthesis and Biological Evaluation.

Project description:Xanthine oxidase (XO) is the enzyme responsible for the conversion of endogenous purines into uric acid. Therefore, this enzyme has been associated with pathological conditions caused by hyperuricemia, such as the disease commonly known as gout. Barbiturates and their congeners thiobarbiturates represent a class of heterocyclic drugs capable of influencing neurotransmission. However, in recent years a very large group of potential pharmaceutical and medicinal applications have been related to their structure. This great diversity of biological activities is directly linked to the enormous opportunities found for chemical change off the back of these findings. With this in mind, sixteen bis-thiobarbiturates were synthesized in moderate to excellent reactional yields, and their antioxidant, anti-proliferative, and XO inhibitory activity were evaluated. In general, all bis-thiobarbiturates present a good antioxidant performance and an excellent ability to inhibit XO at a concentration of 30 µM, eight of them are superior to those observed with the reference drug allopurinol (Allo), nevertheless they were not as effective as febuxostat. The most powerful bis-thiobarbiturate within this set showed in vitro IC50 of 1.79 μM, which was about ten-fold better than Allo inhibition, together with suitable low cytotoxicity. In silico molecular properties such as drug-likeness, pharmacokinetics, and toxicity of this promising barbiturate were also analyzed and herein discussed.

Synthesis of carbohydrate-scaffolded thymine glycoconjugates to organize multivalency.

Project description:Multivalency effects are essential in carbohydrate recognition processes as occurring on the cell surface. Thus many synthetic multivalent glycoconjugates have been developed as important tools for glycobiological research. We are expanding this collection of molecules by the introduction of carbohydrate-scaffolded divalent glycothymine derivatives that can be intramolecularily dimerized by [2 + 2] photocycloaddition. Thus, thymine functions as a control element that allows to restrict the conformational flexibility of the scaffolded sugar ligands and thus to "organize" multivalency. With this work we add a parameter to multivalency studies additional to valency.
