Discovery of Novel Coumarin Analogs against the ?-Glucosidase Protein Target of Diabetes Mellitus: Pharmacophore-Based QSAR, Docking, and Molecular Dynamics Simulation Studies.

ABSTRACT: Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a chronic metabolic disease, the third killer of mankind. The finding of potent drugs against diabetes remains challenging. In the present study, coumarin derivatives with known biological activity against diabetic protein have been used to predict functional groups' positions on coumarin derivatives. ?-Glucosidase is a brush border membrane-bound lysosomal enzyme from the hydrolase enzyme family. It plays an important role in the metabolism of glycoproteins. Inhibitors of lysosomal ?-glucosidase can reduce postprandial hyperglycemia. Due to this, lysosomal ?-glucosidase is a good therapeutic target for drugs. A total of 116 coumarin derivatives with IC50 values against lysosomal ?-glucosidase were selected for a CADD (computer-aided drug design) approach to identify more potent drugs. Pharmacophore modeling and atom-based 3-QSAR of 116 active compounds against lysosomal ?-glucosidase were performed and identified positions and types of groups to increase activity. We performed molecular docking of 116 coumarin derivatives against the lysosomal ?-glucosidase enzyme, and three compounds (isorutarine, 10_, and 36) resulted in a docking score of -7.64, -7.12, and -6.86 kcal/mol. The molecular dynamics simulation of the above three molecules and protein complex performed for 100 ns supported the interaction stability of isorutarine, 10_, and 36 with the lysosomal binding site ?-glucosidase.

Project description:Alzheimer's disease (AD) leads to gradual memory loss including other compromised cognitive abilities. Acetylcholinesterase (AChE), an important biochemical enzyme from the cholinesterase (ChE) family, is recognized as primary pharmacological target for treating AD. Currently marketed drugs for AD treatment are primarily AChE inhibitors and coumarin derivatives comprising a wide variety of pharmacological activities have proved their efficacy towards AChE inhibition. Ensaculin (KA-672 HCl), a compound that belong to the coumarin family, is a clinical trial candidate for AD treatment. Therefore, a ligand library was prepared with 60 reported coumarin derivatives for field-based 3D-QSAR and pharmacophore modelling. The field-based 3D-QSAR model obtained at partial least square (PLS) factor 7, was the best validated model that predicted activity closer to original activity for each ligand introduced. The contour maps demonstrated spatial distribution of favourable and unfavorable steric, hydrophobic, electrostatic and H-bond donor and acceptor contours around coumarin nucleus. The best pharmacophore model, ADHRR_1 exhibited five essential pharmacophoric features of four different traits for optimum AChE inhibition. Virtual screening through ADHRR_1 accompanied with molecular docking and MM/GBSA identified 10 HITs from a 4,00,000 coumarin derivatives from PubChem database. HITs comprised docking scores ranging from -12.096 kcal/mol to -8.271 kcal/mol and compared with the reference drug Donepezil (-8.271 kcal/mol). ADME properties analysis led into detecting two leads (HIT 1 and HIT 2) among these 10 HITs. Molecular Dynamics Simulation indicated thermodynamic stability of the complex of lead compounds with AChE protein. Finally, thorough survey of the experimental results from 3D-QSAR modelling, pharmacophore modelling and molecular docking interactions led us to develop the lead formula I for future advancements in treating AD through AChE inhibitors.

Project description:Dipeptidyl peptidase-IV (DPP-IV) rapidly breaks down the incretin hormones glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and glucose-dependent insulinotropic peptide (GIP). Thus, the use of DPP-IV inhibitors to retard the degradation of endogenous GLP-1 is a possible mode of therapy correcting the defect in incretin-related physiology. The aim of this study is to find a new small molecule and explore the inhibition activity to the DPP-IV enzyme using a computer aided simulation. In this study, the predicted compounds were suggested as potent anti-diabetic candidates. Chosen structures were applied following computational strategies: The generation of the three-dimensional quantitative structure-activity relationship (3D QSAR) pharmacophore models, virtual screening, molecular docking, and de novo Evolution. The method also validated by performing re-docking and cross-docking studies of seven protein systems for which crystal structures were available for all bound ligands. The molecular docking experiments of predicted compounds within the binding pocket of DPP-IV were conducted. By using 25 training set inhibitors, ten pharmacophore models were generated, among which hypo1 was the best pharmacophore model with the best predictive power on account of the highest cost difference (352.03), the lowest root mean squared deviation (RMSD) (2.234), and the best correlation coefficient (0.925). Hypo1 pharmacophore model was used for virtual screening. A total of 161 compounds including 120 from the databases, 25 from the training set, 16 from the test set were selected for molecular docking. Analyzing the amino acid residues of the ligand-receptor interaction, it can be concluded that Arg125, Glu205, Glu206, Tyr547, Tyr662, and Tyr666 are the main amino acid residues. The last step in this study was de novo Evolution that generated 11 novel compounds. The derivative dpp4_45_Evo_1 by all scores CDOCKER_ENERGY (CDOCKER, -41.79), LigScore1 (LScore1, 5.86), LigScore2 (LScore2, 7.07), PLP1 (-112.01), PLP2 (-105.77), PMF (-162.5)-have exceeded the control compound. Thus the most active compound among 11 derivative compounds is dpp4_45_Evo_1. Additionally, for derivatives dpp4_42_Evo_1, dpp4_43_Evo2, dpp4_46_Evo_4, and dpp4_47_Evo_2, significant upward shifts were recorded. The consensus score for the derivatives of dpp4_45_Evo_1 from 1 to 6, dpp4_43_Evo2 from 4 to 6, dpp4_46_Evo_4 from 1 to 6, and dpp4_47_Evo_2 from 0 to 6 were increased. Generally, predicted candidates can act as potent occurring DPP-IV inhibitors given their ability to bind directly to the active sites of DPP-IV. Our result described that the 6 re-docked and 27 cross-docked protein-ligand complexes showed RMSD values of less than 2 Å. Further investigation will result in the development of novel and potential antidiabetic drugs.
