Synthesis and Antinociceptive Effect of Some Thiazole-Piperazine Derivatives: Involvement of Opioidergic System in the Activity.

ABSTRACT: In this study, we aimed to design and synthesize novel molecules carrying both the thiazole and piperazine rings in their structures and to investigate their antinociceptive activity. Targeted compounds were obtained by reacting thiosemicarbazide derivative and appropriate 2-bromoacetophenone in ethanol. The structures of the obtained compounds were determined using data from various spectroscopic methods (IR, ¹H-NMR, ¹³C-NMR, and LCMSMS). Experimental data from in vivo tests showed that test compounds 3a-3c, 3f, and 3g (50 mg/kg) significantly prolonged reaction times of animals in tail-clip and hot-plate tests compared to the controls, indicating that these compounds possess centrally mediated antinociceptive activities. Furthermore, these compounds reduced the number of writhing behaviors in the acetic acid-induced writhing tests, showing that the compounds also possess peripheral antinociceptive activity. In the mechanistic studies, naloxone pre-treatments abolished the antinociceptive activities of compounds 3a-3c, 3f, and 3g, indicating that opioidergic mechanisms were involved in their antinociceptive effects. Molecular docking studies demonstrating significant interactions between the active compounds and µ- and δ-opioid receptor proteins supported the pharmacological findings. This study is the first showing that molecules designed to bear thiazole and piperazine moieties together on their structure exert centrally and peripherally mediated antinociceptive effects by activating the opioid system.

Antioxidant Action and In Vivo Anti-Inflammatory and Antinociceptive Activities of Myrciaria floribunda Fruit Peels: Possible Involvement of Opioidergic System.

Project description:This work evaluated the antioxidant properties and in vivo antinociceptive and anti-inflammatory effects of extracts obtained from fruit peels of Myrciaria floribunda (H. West ex Willd.) O. Berg (Myrtaceae). This plant is popularly known in Brazil as Cambuí or camboim. Different extracts were submitted to comparative analysis to determine the content of selected phytochemical classes (levels of total phenols, flavonoids, and monomeric anthocyanins) and the in vitro antioxidant potentials. The extract with higher potential was selected for in vivo evaluation of its antinociceptive and anti-inflammatory action. Finally, the chemical characterization of this extract was performed by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). MfAE (extract obtained using acetone as solvent) showed the higher levels of phenols (296?mg GAE/g) and anthocyanins contents (35.65?mg Cy-3-glcE/g) that were associated with higher antioxidant activity. MfAE also exhibited in vivo anti-inflammatory and analgesic propertiers. This fraction inhibited the inflammatory and neurogenic phases of pain, and this effect was reversed by naloxone (suggesting the involvement of opioidergic system). MfAE reduced the abdominal contortions induced by acetic acid. The HPLC analysis revealed the presence of gallic acid (and its derivatives) and ellagic acid. Taken together, these data support the use of M. floribunda fruit peels for development of functional foods and nutraceutics.

Synthesis and Anticandidal Activity Evaluation of New Benzimidazole-Thiazole Derivatives.

Project description:Azole-based antifungal agents constitute one of the important classes of antifungal drugs. Hence, in the present work, 12 new benzimidazole-thiazole derivatives 3a-3l were synthesized to evaluate their anticandidal activity against C.albicans, C.glabrata, C.krusei, and C.parapsilopsis. The structures of the newly synthesized compounds 3a-3l were confirmed by IR, ¹H-NMR, 13C-NMR, and ESI-MS spectroscopic methods. ADME parameters of synthesized compounds 3a-3l were predicted by an in-slico study and it was determined that all synthesized compounds may have a good pharmacokinetic profile. In the anticandidal activity studies, compounds 3c and 3d were found to be the most active compounds against all Candida species. In addition, cytoxicity studies showed that these compounds are nontoxic with a IC50 value higher than 500 µg/mL. The effect of compounds 3c and 3d on the ergosterol level of C.albicans was determined by an LC-MS-MS method. It was observed that both compounds cause a decrease in the ergosterol level. A molecular docking study including binding modes of 3c to lanosterol 14?-demethylase (CYP51), a key enzyme in ergosterol biosynthesis, was performed to elucidate the mechanism of the antifungal action. The docking studies revealed that there is a strong interaction between CYP51 and the most active compound 3c.

Synthesis and Biological Activity of Myricetin Derivatives Containing Pyrazole Piperazine Amide.

Project description:In this paper, a series of derivatives were synthesized by introducing the pharmacophore pyrazole ring and piperazine ring into the structure of the natural product myricetin through an amide bond. The structures were determined using carbon spectrum and hydrogen spectrum high-resolution mass spectrometry. Biological activities of those compounds against bacteria, including Xac (Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. Citri), Psa (Pseudomonas syringae pv. Actinidiae) and Xoo (Xanthomonas oryzae pv. Oryzae) were tested. Notably, D6 exhibited significant bioactivity against Xoo with an EC50 value of 18.8 μg/mL, which was higher than the control drugs thiadiazole-copper (EC50 = 52.9 μg/mL) and bismerthiazol (EC50 = 69.1 μg/mL). Furthermore, the target compounds were assessed for their antifungal activity against ten plant pathogenic fungi. Among them, D1 displayed excellent inhibitory activity against Phomopsis sp. with an EC50 value of 16.9 μg/mL, outperforming the control agents azoxystrobin (EC50 = 50.7 μg/mL) and fluopyram (EC50 = 71.8 μg/mL). In vitro tests demonstrated that D1 possessed curative (60.6%) and protective (74.9%) effects on postharvest kiwifruit. To investigate the active mechanism of D1, its impact on SDH activity was evaluated based on its structural features and further confirmed through molecular docking. Subsequently, the malondialdehyde content of D1-treated fungi was measured, revealing that D1 could increase malondialdehyde levels, thereby causing damage to the cell membrane. Additionally, the EC50 value of D16 on P. capsici was 11.3 μg/mL, which was superior to the control drug azoxystrobin (EC50 = 35.1 μg/mL), and the scanning electron microscopy results indicated that the surface of drug-treated mycelium was ruffled, and growth was significantly affected.

Synthesis and Antimicrobial Activity of New Heteroaryl(aryl) Thiazole Derivatives Molecular Docking Studies.

Project description:Herein, we report the design, synthesis, and evaluation of the antimicrobial activity of new heteroaryl (aryl) thiazole derivatives. The design was based on a molecular hybridization approach. The in vitro evaluation revealed that these compounds demonstrated moderate antibacterial activity. The best activity was achieved for compound 3, with MIC and MBC in the range of 0.23-0.7 and 0.47-0.94 mg/mL, respectively. Three compounds (2, 3, and 4) were tested against three resistant strains, namely methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus, P. aeruginosa, and E. coli, which showed higher potential than the reference drug ampicillin. Antifungal activity of the compounds was better with MIC and MFC in the range of 0.06-0.47 and 0.11-0.94 mg/mL, respectively. The best activity was observed for compound 9, with MIC at 0.06-0.23 mg/mL and MFC at 0.11-0.47 mg/mL. According to docking studies, the predicted inhibition of the E. coli MurB enzyme is a putative mechanism of the antibacterial activity of the compounds, while inhibition of 14a-lanosterol demethylase is probably the mechanism of their antifungal activity.

Design, Synthesis, and Anti-PVY Biological Activity of 1,3,5-Triazine Derivatives Containing Piperazine Structure.

Project description:In this study, a commercial agent with antivirus activity and moroxydine hydrochloride were employed to perform a lead optimization. A series of 1,3,5-triazine derivatives with piperazine structures were devised and synthesized, and an evaluation of their anti-potato virus Y (PVY) activity revealed that several of the target compounds possessed potent anti-PVY activity. The synthesis of compound C35 was directed by a 3D-quantitative structure-activity relationship that used the compound's structural parameters. The assessment of the anti-PVY activity of compound C35 revealed that its curative, protective, and inactivation activities (53.3 ± 2.5%, 56.9 ± 1.5%, and 85.8 ± 4.4%, respectively) were comparable to the positive control of ningnanmycin (49.1 ± 2.4%, 50.7 ± 4.1%, and 82.3 ± 6.4%) and were superior to moroxydine hydrochloride (36.7 ± 2.7%, 31.4 ± 2.0%, and 57.1 ± 1.8%). In addition, molecular docking demonstrated that C35 can form hydrogen bonds with glutamic acid at position 150 (GLU 150) of PVY CP, providing a partial theoretical basis for the antiviral activity of the target compounds.

New Series of Thiazole Derivatives: Synthesis, Structural Elucidation, Antimicrobial Activity, Molecular Modeling and MOE Docking.

Project description:Based on the extensive biological activities of thiazole derivatives against different types of diseases, we are interested in the effective part of many natural compounds, so we synthesized a new series of compounds containing di-, tri- and tetrathiazole moieties. The formation of such derivatives proceeded via reaction of 2-bromo-1-(4-methyl-2-(methylamino)thiazol-5-yl)ethan-1-one with heterocyclic amines, o-aminothiophenol and thiosemicarbazone derivatives. The structure and mechanistic pathways for all products were discussed and proved based on spectral results, in addition to conformational studies. Our aim after the synthesis is to investigate their antimicrobial activity against various types of bacteria and fungi species. Preceeding such an investigation, a molecular docking study was carried out with selected conformers, as representative examples, against three pathogen-proteins. This preliminary stage could support the biological application. The potency of these compounds as antimicrobial agents has been evaluated. The results showed that derivatives which have di- and trithiazole rings displayed high activity that exceeds the used standard antibiotic.

Ethionamide and Prothionamide Based Coumarinyl-Thiazole Derivatives: Synthesis, Antitubercular Activity, Toxicity Investigations and Molecular Docking Studies.

Project description:The goal of this research work was to prepare and evaluate the antitubercular (anti-TB) activity of ethionamide (ETH) and prothionamide (PTH) based coumarinyl-thiazole derivatives. ETH and PTH were reacted with coumarin intermediates (3a-3e) to provide the target compounds (4a-4e and 4f-4j, respectively). Spectral studies confirmed the assigned structures of 4a-4j. The Microplate Alamar Blue Assay was utilized to evaluate the anti-TB activity of compounds 4a-4j against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv strain in comparison to ETH, PTH, isoniazid (INH), and pyrazinamide (PYZ) as standard drugs. The cytotoxicity studies were carried out versus HepG2 and Vero cell lines. In addition. molecular docking studies of 4a-4j concerning the DprE1 enzyme and the in-silico evaluation of physicochemical and pharmacokinetic parameters were performed. Compounds 4a, 4b, 4f, and 4g displayed equal minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values in comparison to INH (3.125 μg/ml) and PYZ (3.125 μg/ml), whereas 4c-4e and 4h-4j displayed better MIC values (1.562 μg/mL) than INH and PYZ. All compounds presented better anti-TB potential than ETH (6.25 μg/mL) and PTH (6.25 μg/mL). The studies of toxicity revealed that 4a-4j were safe up to 300 μg/mL concentration versus Vero and HepG2 cell lines. The molecular docking studies suggested that 4a-4j could possess anti-TB activity through the inhibition of the DprE1 enzyme. The in silico studies showed that 4a-4j followed Lipinski's rule (drug-likeliness) and exhibited better gastrointestinal absorption than BTZ043 and macozinone. In conclusion, the ETH and PTH-based coumarinyl-thiazole template can help developing selective DprE1 enzyme inhibitors as potent anti-TB agents.

Novel 2,4-Disubstituted-1,3-Thiazole Derivatives: Synthesis, Anti-Candida Activity Evaluation and Interaction with Bovine Serum Albumine.

Project description:Herein we report the synthesis of two novel series of 1,3-thiazole derivatives having a lipophilic C4-substituent on account of the increasing need for novel and versatile antifungal drugs for the treatment of resistant Candida sp.-based infections. Following their structural characterization, the anti-Candida activity was evaluated in vitro while using the broth microdilution method. Three compounds exhibited lower Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) values when compared to fluconazole, being used as the reference antifungal drug. An in silico molecular docking study was subsequently carried out in order to gain more insight into the antifungal mechanism of action, while using lanosterol-C14α-demethylase as the target enzyme. Fluorescence microscopy was employed to further investigate the cellular target of the most promising molecule, with the obtained results confirming its damaging effect towards the fungal cell membrane integrity. Finally, the distribution and the pharmacological potential in vivo of the novel thiazole derivatives was investigated through the study of their binding interaction with bovine serum albumin, while using fluorescence spectroscopy.

Design, synthesis, anticancer activity and docking studies of novel quinazoline-based thiazole derivatives as EGFR kinase inhibitors.

Project description:The in vitro anticancer efficacy of a new series of quinazoline-based thiazole derivatives was explored. Three cancer cell lines, MCF-7, HepG2, and A548, as well as the normal Vero cell lines, were tested employing the synthesized quinazoline-based thiazole compounds (4a-j). All of these compounds showed a moderate to significant cytotoxic impact that would have been noticeable and, in some cases, much more pronounced than the widely used drug erlotinib. For the MCF-7, HepG2, and A549 cell lines, respectively, the IC50 values of compound 4i were 2.86, 5.91, and 14.79 μM while those of compound 4j were 3.09, 6.87, and 17.92 μM. For their in vitro inhibitory effects against different EGFR kinases, such as the wild-type, L858R/T790 M, and L858R/T790 M/C797S, all the synthesized compounds were tested. The IC50 values for compound 4f against the wild-type, L858R/T790 M, and L858R/T790 M/C797S mutant EGFR kinases were 2.17, 2.81, and 3.62 nM, respectively. Investigations on the molecular docking of significant molecules indicated potential mechanisms of binding into the EGFR kinase active sites. By using in-silico simulations, compounds' putative drug-like qualities were verified. Finally, it has been shown that the newly synthesized compounds 4i and 4j are good candidates and beneficial for future design, optimization, and research to build more potent and selective EGFR kinase inhibitors with higher anticancer activity.
