Design, synthesis and biological evaluation of new 2-aminothiazole scaffolds as phosphodiesterase type 5 regulators and COX-1/COX-2 inhibitors.

ABSTRACT: A new series of 2-aminothiazole derivatives was designed and prepared as phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) regulators and COX-1/COX-2 inhibitors. The screening of the synthesized compounds for PDE5 activity was carried out using sildenafil as a reference drug. Strikingly, compounds 23a and 23c were found to have a complete inhibitory effect on PDE5 (100%) at 10 μM without causing hypotension and the limited side effect of PDE5 inhibitors, suggest a distinctive therapeutic role of these derivatives in erectile dysfunction. On the other hand, compounds 5a, 17, 21 and 23b increased the PDE5 activity (PDE5 enhancers) at 10 μM. In addition, the study includes the screening of the COX-1/COX-2 inhibition induced by the synthesized compounds. All tested compounds have an inhibitory effect against COX-1 activity (IC₅₀ = 1.00-6.34 μM range) and COX-2 activity (IC₅₀ = 0.09-0.71 μM range). Moreover, a molecular docking study was implemented to reveal the binding interactions of potent compounds in the binding sites of PDE5 (PDB ID 2H42), COX-1 and COX-2 (PDB ID 3LN1) enzymes. For the interaction with the PDE5 enzyme, activator compounds had a strong binding mode (HB with Gln817:A) than inhibitory derivatives. Both types of compounds are considered as PDE5 regulators. This novel finding will encourage us to discover a new pharmacological application of small chemical entities as the PDE5 enhancer, or will lower side effects as PDE5 inhibitors. All active compounds adopted the Y-shape along the COX-2 active site.

Design, synthesis, and biological evaluation of novel urolithins derivatives as potential phosphodiesterase II inhibitors.

Project description:A series of urolithins derivatives were designed and synthesized, and their structures have been confirmed by 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and HR-MS. The inhibitory activity of these derivatives on phosphodiesterase II (PDE2) was thoroughly studied with 3-hydroxy-8-methyl-6H-benzo[C]chromen-6-one and 3-hydroxy-7,8,9,10-tetrahydro-6H-benzo[C] chromen-6-one as the lead compounds. The biological activity test showed that compound 2e had the best inhibitory activity on PDE2 with an IC50 of 33.95 μM. This study provides a foundation for further structural modification and transformation of urolithins to obtain PDE2 inhibitor small molecules with better inhibitory activity.

Design, Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of Novel Peptide-Like Analogues as Selective COX-2 Inhibitors.

Project description:A new series of peptide-like derivatives containing different aromatic amino acids and possessing pharmacophores of COX-2 inhibitors as SO2Me or N3 attached to the para position of an end phenyl ring was synthesized for evaluation as selective cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) inhibitors. The synthetic reactions were based on the solid phase peptide synthesis method using Wang resin. One of the analogues, i.e., compound 2d, as the representative of these series was recognized as the most effective and the highest selective COX-2 inhibitor with IC50 value of 0.08 μM and COX-2 selectivity index of 351.2, among the other synthesized compounds. Molecular docking study was operated to determine possible binding models of compound 2d to COX-2 enzyme. The study showed that the p-azido-phenyl fragment of 2d occupied inside the secondary COX-2 binding site (Arg513, and His90). The structure-activity relationships acquired disclosed that compound 2d with 4-(azido phenyl) group as pharmacophore and histidine as amino acid gives the essential geometry to provide inhibition of the COX-2 enzyme with high selectivity. Compound 2d can be a good candidate for the development of new hits of COX-2 inhibitors.

Design, synthesis and biological evaluation of novel benzodioxole derivatives as COX inhibitors and cytotoxic agents.

Project description:Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs are among the most used drugs. They are competitive inhibitors of cyclooxygenase (COX). Twelve novel compounds (aryl acetate and aryl acetic acid groups) were synthesized in this work in order to identify which one was the most potent and which group was most selective towards COX1 and COX2 by using an in vitro COX inhibition assay kit. The cytotoxicity was evaluated for these compounds utilizing MTS assay against cervical carcinoma cells line (HeLa). The synthesized compounds were identified using FTIR, HRMS, 1H-NMR, and 13C-NMR techniques. The results showed that the most potent compound against the COX1 enzyme was 4f with IC50 = 0.725 µM. The compound 3b showed potent activity against both COX1 and COX2 with IC50 = 1.12 and 1.3 µM, respectively, and its selectivity ratio (0.862) was found to be better than Ketoprofen (0.196). In contrast, compound 4d was the most selective with a COX1/COX2 ratio value of 1.809 in comparison with the Ketoprofen ratio. All compounds showed cytotoxic activity against the HeLa Cervical cancer cell line at a higher concentration ranges (0.219-1.94 mM), and the most cytotoxic compound was 3e with a CC50 value of 219 µM. This was tenfold more than its IC50 values of 2.36 and 2.73 µM against COX1 and COX2, respectively. In general, the synthesized library has moderate activity against both enzymes (i.e., COX1 and COX2) and ortho halogenated compounds were more potent than the meta ones.

Design, synthesis and biological evaluation of novel pyridine derivatives as anticancer agents and phosphodiesterase 3 inhibitors.

Project description:Two series of 4,6-diaryl-2-imino-1,2-dihydropyridine-3-carbonitriles and their isosteric 4,6-diaryl-2-oxo-1,2-dihydropyridine-3-carbonitriles were synthesized through a combinatorial approach. The prepared analogues were evaluated for their in vitro capacity to inhibit PDE3A and the growth of the human HT-29 colon adenocarcinoma tumor cell line. Compound 6-(4-bromophenyl)-4-(2-ethoxyphenyl)-2-imino-1,2-dihydropyridine-3-carbonitrile (Id) exhibited the strongest PDE3 inhibition when cGMP but not cAMP is the substrate with a IC(50)of 27microM, which indicates a highly selective mechanism of enzyme inhibition. On the other hand, compound 6-(1,3-benzodioxol-5-yl)-4-(2-ethoxyphenyl)-2-imino-1,2-dihydropyridine-3-carbonitrile (Ii) was the most active in inhibiting colon tumor cell growth with a IC(50) of 3microM. The electronic effects, steric effects and conformational aspects of Id seem to be the most crucial for the PDE3 inhibition. Meanwhile, steric factors and the H-bonding capability seem to be the most important factors for tumor cell growth inhibitory activity. Conversely, there is no direct correlation between PDE3 inhibition and anticancer activity for the prepared compounds. An in silico docking experiment indicates the potential involvement of other potential molecular targets such as PIM-1 kinase to explain its tumor cell growth inhibitory activity.

Design, Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of Isoxazole-Based CK1 Inhibitors Modified with Chiral Pyrrolidine Scaffolds.

Project description:In this study, we report on the modification of a 3,4-diaryl-isoxazole-based CK1 inhibitor with chiral pyrrolidine scaffolds to develop potent and selective CK1 inhibitors. The pharmacophore of the lead structure was extended towards the ribose pocket of the adenosine triphosphate (ATP) binding site driven by structure-based drug design. For an upscale compatible multigram synthesis of the functionalized pyrrolidine scaffolds, we used a chiral pool synthetic route starting from methionine. Biological evaluation of key compounds in kinase and cellular assays revealed significant effects of the scaffolds towards activity and selectivity, however, the absolute configuration of the chiral moieties only exhibited a limited effect on inhibitory activity. X-ray crystallographic analysis of ligand-CK1δ complexes confirmed the expected binding mode of the 3,4-diaryl-isoxazole inhibitors. Surprisingly, the original compounds underwent spontaneous Pictet-Spengler cyclization with traces of formaldehyde during the co-crystallization process to form highly potent new ligands. Our data suggests chiral "ribose-like" pyrrolidine scaffolds have interesting potential for modifications of pharmacologically active compounds.

Design, Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of New Imidazo[2,1-b]Thiazole Derivatives as Selective COX-2 Inhibitors.

Project description:A new series of imidazo[2,1-b]thiazole analogs containing a methyl sulfonyl COX-2 pharmacophore was synthesized and evaluated for their COX-2 inhibitory activity. According to in-vitro COX-1/COX-2 inhibition data, all compounds (6a-g) were selective inhibitors of COX-2 isoenzyme with IC50 values in the highly potent 0.08-0.16 µM range. These results indicated that both potency and selectivity of COX-2 inhibitory activity were affected by the type and size of amine on C-5 of imidazo[2,1-b]thiazole ring. Our data identified N,N-dimethyl-1-(6-(4-(methylsulfonyl)phenyl)imidazo[2,1-b]thiazol-5-yl)methanamine (6a) as a potent and selective COX-2 inhibitor (IC50 COX-1 >100 µM; IC50 COX-2 = 0.08 µM; selectivity index = 313.7). Our results indicated that both potency and selectivity of COX-2 inhibitory activity were affected by the type and size of amine on C-5 of imidazo[2,1-b]thiazole ring.

Design, Synthesis, and Evaluation of New Tripeptides as COX-2 Inhibitors.

Project description:Cyclooxygenase (COX) is a key enzyme in the biosynthetic pathway leading to the formation of prostaglandins, which are mediators of inflammation. It exists mainly in two isoforms COX-1 and COX-2. The conventional nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) have gastrointestinal side effects because they inhibit both isoforms. Recent data demonstrate that the overexpression of these enzymes, and in particular of cyclooxygenases-2, promotes multiple events involved in tumorigenesis; in addition, numerous studies show that the inhibition of cyclooxygenases-2 can delay or prevent certain forms of cancer. Agents that inhibit COX-2 while sparing COX-1 represent a new attractive therapeutic development and offer a new perspective for a further use of COX-2 inhibitors. The present study extends the evaluation of the COX activity to all 20(3) possible natural tripeptide sequences following a rational approach consisting in molecular modeling, synthesis, and biological tests. Based on data obtained from virtual screening, only those peptides with better profile of affinity have been selected and classified into two groups called S and E. Our results suggest that these novel compounds may have potential as structural templates for the design and subsequent development of the new selective COX-2 inhibitors drugs.

Multifunctional Isosteric Pyridine Analogs-Based 2-Aminothiazole: Design, Synthesis, and Potential Phosphodiesterase-5 Inhibitory Activity.

Project description:The elaboration of new small molecules that target phosphodiesterase enzymes (PDEs), especially those of type 5 (PDE5), is an interesting and emerging topic nowadays. A new series of heterocycle-based aminothiazoles were designed and synthesized from the key intermediate, 3-oxo-N-(thiazol-2-yl)butanamide (a PDE5 inhibitor that retains its amidic function), as an essential pharmacophoric moiety. The PDE5 inhibitors prevent the degradation of cyclic guanosine monophosphate, thereby causing severe hypotension as a marked side effect. Hence, an in vivo testing of the target compounds was conducted to verify its relation with arterial blood pressure. Utilizing sildenafil as the reference drug, Compounds 5, 10a, and 11b achieved 100% inhibitions of PDE5 without significantly lowering the mean arterial blood pressures (115.95 ± 2.91, 110.3 ± 2.84, and 78.3 ± 2.57, respectively). The molecular docking study revealed that the tested compounds exhibited docking poses that were similar to that of sildenafil (exploiting the amide functionality that interacted with GLN:817:A). The molecular shape and electrostatic similarity revealed a comparable physically achievable electrostatic potential with the reference drug, sildenafil. Therefore, these concomitant results revealed that the tested compounds exerted sildenafil-like inhibitory effects (although without its known drawbacks) on blood circulation, thus suggesting that the tested compounds might represent a cornerstone of beneficial drug candidates for the safe treatment for erectile dysfunction.

Design, synthesis, and biological evaluation of O-2-modified indenoisoquinolines as dual topoisomerase I-tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase I inhibitors.

Project description:Tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase I (TDP1) repairs stalled topoisomerase I (Top1)-DNA covalent complexes and has been proposed to be a promising and attractive target for cancer treatment. Inhibitors of TDP1 could conceivably act synergistically with Top1 inhibitors and thereby potentiate the effects of Top1 poisons. This study describes the successful design and synthesis of 2-position-modified indenoisoquinolines as dual Top1-TDP1 inhibitors using a structure-based drug design approach. Enzyme inhibition studies indicate that indenoisoquinolines modified at the 2-position with three-carbon side chains ending with amino substituents show both promising Top1 and TDP1 inhibitory activity. Molecular modeling of selected target compounds bound to Top1 and TDP1 was used to rationalize the enzyme inhibition results and structure-activity relationship analysis.

Synthesis, structural analysis, and biological evaluation of thioxoquinazoline derivatives as phosphodiesterase 7 inhibitors.

Project description:PDE7 inhibitors regulate pro-inflammatory and immune T-cell functions, and are a potentially novel class of drugs especially useful in the treatment of a wide variety of immune and inflammatory disorders. Starting from our lead family of thioxoquinazolines, we designed, synthesized, and characterized a novel series of thioxoquinazoline derivatives. Many of these compounds showed inhibitory potencies at sub-micromolar levels against the catalytic domain of PDE7A1 and at the micromolar level against PDE4D2. Cell-based studies showed that these compounds not only increased intracellular cAMP levels, but also had interesting anti-inflammatory properties within a therapeutic window. The in silico data predict that these compounds are capable of the crossing the blood-brain barrier. The X-ray crystal structure of the PDE7A1 catalytic domain in complex with compound 15 at a resolution of 2.4 A demonstrated that hydrophobic interactions at the active site pocket are a key feature. This structure, together with molecular modeling, provides insight into the selectivity of the PDE inhibitors and a template for the discovery of new PDE7 or PDE7/PDE4 dual inhibitors.
