Triazolo Based-Thiadiazole Derivatives. Synthesis, Biological Evaluation and Molecular Docking Studies.

ABSTRACT: The goal of this research is to investigate the antimicrobial activity of nineteen previously synthesized 3,6-disubstituted-1,2,4-triazolo[3,4-b]-1,3,4-thiadiazole derivatives. The compounds were tested against a panel of three Gram-positive and three Gram-negative bacteria, three resistant strains, and six fungi. Minimal inhibitory, bactericidal, and fungicidal concentrations were determined by a microdilution method. All of the compounds showed antibacterial activity that was more potent than both reference drugs, ampicillin and streptomycin, against all bacteria tested. Similarly, they were also more active against resistant bacterial strains. The antifungal activity of the compounds was up to 80-fold higher than ketoconazole and from 3 to 40 times higher than bifonazole, both of which were used as reference drugs. The most active compounds (2, 3, 6, 7, and 19) were tested for their inhibition of P. aeruginosa biofilm formation. Among them, compound 3 showed significantly higher antibiofilm activity and appeared to be equipotent with ampicillin. The prediction of the probable mechanism by docking on antibacterial targets revealed that E. coli MurB is the most suitable enzyme, while docking studies on antifungal targets indicated a probable involvement of CYP51 in the mechanism of antifungal activity. Finally, the toxicity testing in human cells confirmed their low toxicity both in cancerous cell line MCF7 and non-cancerous cell line HK-2.

Synthesis, Biological Evaluation, and Molecular Modeling Studies of New Thiadiazole Derivatives as Potent P2X7 Receptor Inhibitors.

Project description:Twenty new 2-(1H-pyrazol-1-yl)-1,3,4-thiadiazole analogs were synthetized to develop P2X7 receptor (P2X7R) inhibitors. P2X7R inhibition in vitro was evaluated in mouse peritoneal macrophages, HEK-293 cells transfected with hP2X7R (dye uptake assay), and THP-1 cells (IL-1β release assay). The 1-(5-phenyl-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl)-1H-pyrazol-5-amine derivatives 9b, 9c, and 9f, and 2-(3,5-dimethyl-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)-5-(4-fluorophenyl)-1,3,4-thiadiazole (11c) showed inhibitory effects with IC50 values ranging from 16 to 122 nM for reduced P2X7R-mediated dye uptake and 20 to 300 nM for IL-1β release. In addition, the in vitro ADMET profile of the four most potent derivatives was determined to be in acceptable ranges concerning metabolic stability and cytotoxicity. Molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulation studies of the molecular complexes human P2X7R/9f and murine P2X7R/9f indicated the putative intermolecular interactions. Compound 9f showed affinity mainly for the Arg268, Lys377, and Asn266 residues. These results suggest that 2-(1H-pyrazol-1-yl)-1,3,4-thiadiazole analogs may be promising novel P2X7R inhibitors with therapeutic potential.

Biological Evaluation and Molecular Docking Studies of Dimethylpyridine Derivatives.

Project description:Cyclooxygenase inhibitors as anti-inflammatory agents can be used in chemoprevention. Many in vitro and in vivo studies on human and animal models have explained the mechanisms of the chemopreventive effect of COX inhibitors such as: induction of apoptosis, inhibition of neoplasia, angiogenesis suppression, induction of cell cycle inhibition and inhibition of the expression of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors. Here, biological evaluation of twelve different Schiff base derivatives of N-(2-hydrazine-2-oxoethyl)-4,6-dimethyl-2-sulfanylpyridine- 3-carboxamide are presented. Their in vitro anti-COX-1/COX-2, antioxidant and anticancer activities were studied. The molecular docking study was performed in order to understand the binding interaction of compounds in the active site of cyclooxygenases. Compounds PS18 and PS33 showed a significant inhibitory activity on COX-1 at lower concentrations compared to meloxicam and piroxicam. The IC50 of COX-1 of these compounds was 57.3 µM for PS18 and 51.8 µM for PS33. Out of the tested compounds, the highest therapeutic index was demonstrated by PS18, PS19, PS33, PS40 and PS41. Lower molar concentrations of these compounds inhibit the growth of cancer cells while not inhibiting the healthy cells. Compounds PS18, PS19 and PS33 simultaneously demonstrated a statistically-significant inhibition of COX-1 or COX-2. This opens up the possibility of applying these compounds in the chemoprevention of cancer.

New Urea Derivatives as Potential Antimicrobial Agents: Synthesis, Biological Evaluation, and Molecular Docking Studies.

Project description:A series of new urea derivatives, containing aryl moieties as potential antimicrobial agents, were designed, synthesized, and characterized by 1H NMR, 13C NMR, FT-IR, and LCMS spectral techniques. All newly synthesized compounds were screened in vitro against five bacterial strains (Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Acinetobacter baumannii, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Staphylococcus aureus) and two fungal strains (Candida albicans and Cryptococcus neoformans). Variable levels of interaction were observed for these urea derivatives. However, and of major importance, many of these molecules exhibited promising growth inhibition against Acinetobacter baumannii. In particular, to our delight, the adamantyl urea adduct 3l demonstrated outstanding growth inhibition (94.5%) towards Acinetobacter baumannii. In light of this discovery, molecular docking studies were performed in order to elucidate the binding interaction mechanisms of the most active compounds, as reported herein.

Novel phthalimide based analogues: design, synthesis, biological evaluation, and molecular docking studies.

Project description:Pyrazolylphthalimide derivative 4 was synthesized and reacted with different reagents to afford the target compounds imidazopyrazoles 5-7, pyrazolopyrimidines 9, 12, 14 and pyrazolotriazines 16, 17 containing phthalimide moiety. The prepared compounds were established by different spectral data and elemental analyses. Additionally, all synthesized derivatives were screened for their antibacterial activity against four types of Gram + ve and Gram-ve strains, and for antifungal activity against two fungi micro-organisms by well diffusion method. Moreover, the antiproliferative activity was tested for all compounds against human liver (HepG-2) cell line in comparison with the reference vinblastine. Moreover, drug-likeness and toxicity risk parameters of the newly synthesized compounds were calculated using in silico studies. The data from structure-actvity relationship (SAR) analysis suggested that phthalimide derivative bearing 3-aminopyrazolone moiety, 4 illustrated the best antimicrobial and antitumor activities and might be considered as a lead for further optimization. To investigate the mechanism of the antimicrobial and anticancer activities, enzymatic assay and molecular docking studies were carried out on E. coli topoisomerase II DNA gyrase B and VEGFR-2 enzymes.

Project description:Infectious diseases represent a significant global strain on public health security and impact on socio-economic stability all over the world. The increasing resistance to the current antimicrobial treatment has resulted in the crucial need for the discovery and development of novel entities for the infectious treatment with different modes of action that could target both sensitive and resistant strains. Compounds were synthesized using the classical organic chemistry methods. Prediction of biological activity spectra was carried out using PASS and PASS-based web applications. Pharmacophore modeling in LigandScout software was used for quantitative modeling of the antibacterial activity. Antimicrobial activity was evaluated using the microdilution method. AutoDock 4.2® software was used to elucidate probable bacterial and fungal molecular targets of the studied compounds. All compounds exhibited better antibacterial potency than ampicillin against all bacteria tested. Three compounds were tested against resistant strains MRSA, P. aeruginosa and E. coli and were found to be more potent than MRSA than reference drugs. All compounds demonstrated a higher degree of antifungal activity than the reference drugs bifonazole (6-17-fold) and ketoconazole (13-52-fold). Three of the most active compounds could be considered for further development of the new, more potent antimicrobial agents. Compounds 5b (Z)-3-(3-hydroxyphenyl)-5-((1-methyl-1H-indol-3-yl)methylene)-2-thioxothiazolidin-4-one and 5g (Z)-3-[5-(1H-Indol-3-ylmethylene)-4-oxo-2-thioxo-thiazolidin-3-yl]-benzoic acid as well as 5h (Z)-3-(5-((5-methoxy-1H-indol-3-yl)methylene)-4-oxo-2-thioxothiazolidin-3-yl)benzoic acid can be considered as lead compounds for further development of more potent and safe antibacterial and antifungal agents.

Novel quercetin and apigenin-acetamide derivatives: design, synthesis, characterization, biological evaluation and molecular docking studies.

Project description:Flavonoids exhibit essential but limited biological properties which can be enhanced through chemical modifications. In this study, we designed, synthesized, and characterized two novel flavonoid derivatives, quercetin penta-acetamide (1S3) and apigenin tri-acetamide (2S3). These compounds were confirmed using (1H, 13C) NMR, UV-Vis, and FT-IR characterizations. Their interaction with fish sperm DNA (FS-DNA) at physiological pH was investigated by UV-Vis and fluorescence spectrophotometry. The binding constant (K b) for the UV-Vis experiment was found to be 1.43 ± 0.3 × 104 M-1 for 1S3 and 2.08 ± 0.2 × 104 M-1 for 2S3. The binding constants (K SV) for the fluorescence quenching experiment were 1.83 × 104 M-1 and 1.96 × 104 M-1 for 1S3 and 2S3, respectively. Based on molecular modeling and docking studies, the binding affinities were found to be -7.9 and -9.1 kcal mol-1, for 1S3 and 2S3, respectively. The compound-DNA docked model correlated with our experimental results, and they are groove binders. Furthermore, mutagenicity potential was examined. 1S3 and its metabolites showed no mutagenic activity for both TA98 and TA100 strains. 2S3 did not show any mutagenic activity for the strain TA 98, while its metabolites were only active at high doses. Both 2S3 and its metabolites showed mutagenic activity in the TA100 strain.

Indole Derivatives as Cyclooxygenase Inhibitors: Synthesis, Biological Evaluation and Docking Studies.

Project description:A new series of 2-(5-methoxy-2-methyl-1H-indol-3-yl)-N?-[(E)-(substituted phenyl) methylidene] acetohydrazide derivatives (S1?S18) were synthesized and evaluated for their anti-inflammatory activity, analgesic activity, ulcerogenic activity, lipid peroxidation, ulcer index and cyclooxygenase expression activities. All the synthesized compounds were in good agreement with spectral and elemental analysis. Three synthesized compounds (S3, S7 and S14) have shown significant anti-inflammatory activity as compared to the reference drug indomethacin. Compound S3 was further tested for ulcerogenic index and cyclooxygenase (COX) expression activity. It was selectively inhibiting COX-2 expression and providing the gastric sparing activity. Docking studies have revealed the potential of these compounds to bind with COX-2 enzyme. Compound S3 formed a hydrogen bond between OH of Tyr 355 and NH? of Arg 120 with carbonyl group and this hydrogen bond was similar to that formed by indomethacin. This study provides insight for compound S3, as a new lead compound as anti-inflammatory agent and selective COX-2 inhibitor.

Germacrone derivatives: synthesis, biological activity, molecular docking studies and molecular dynamics simulations.

Project description:Germacrone is one of the major bioactive components in the Curcuma zedoaria oil product, which is extracted from Curcuma zedoaria Roscoe, known as zedoary. The present study designed some novel germacrone derivatives based on combination principles, synthesized these compounds, and investigated their inhibitions on Bel-7402, HepG2, A549 and HeLa cells. Meanwhile, the study evaluated inhibitions of these derivatives on c-Met kinase, which has been detected in a number of cancers. The results suggested that the majority of the compounds showed stronger inhibitory effect on cancers and c-Met kinase than germacrone. Furthermore, our docking experiments analyzed the results and explained the molecular mechanism. Molecular dynamics simulations were then applied to perform further evaluation of the binding stabilities between compounds and their receptors.
