4-Sulfamoylphenylalkylamides as Inhibitors of Carbonic Anhydrases Expressed in Vibrio cholerae.

ABSTRACT: A current issue of antimicrobial therapy is the resistance to treatment with worldwide consequences. Thus, the identification of innovative targets is an intriguing challenge in the drug and development process aimed at newer antimicrobial agents. The state-of-art of anticholera therapy might comprise the reduction of the expression of cholera toxin, which could be reached through the inhibition of carbonic anhydrases expressed in Vibrio cholerae (VchCAα, VchCAβ, and VchCAγ). Therefore, we focused our interest on the exploitation of sulfonamides as VchCA inhibitors. We planned to design and synthesize new benzenesulfonamides based on our knowledge of the VchCA catalytic site. The synthesized compounds were tested thus collecting useful SAR information. From our investigation, we identified new potent VchCA inhibitors, some of them displayed high affinity toward VchCAγ class, for which few inhibitors are currently reported in literature. The best interesting VchCAγ inhibitor (S)-N-(1-oxo-1-((4-sulfamoylbenzyl)amino)propan-2-yl)furan-2-carboxamide (40) resulted more active and selective inhibitor when compared with acetazolamide (AAZ) as well as previously reported VchCA inhibitors.

In Silico-Guided Identification of New Potent Inhibitors of Carbonic Anhydrases Expressed in Vibrio cholerae.

Project description:Carbonic anhydrases from Vibrio cholerae (VchCAs) play a significant role in bacterial pathophysiological processes. Therefore, their inhibition leads to a reduction of gene expression virulence and bacterial growth impairment. Herein, we report the first ligand-based pharmacophore model as a computational tool to study selective inhibitors of the β-class of VchCA. By a virtual screening on a collection of sulfonamides, we retrieved 9 compounds that were synthesized and evaluated for their inhibitory effects against VchCAβ as well as α- and γ-classes of VchCAs and selectivity over human ubiquitous isoforms hCA I and II. Notably, all tested compounds were active inhibitors of VchCAs. The N-(4-sulfamoylbenzyl)-[1,1'-biphenyl]-4-carboxamide (20e) stood out as the most exciting inhibitor toward the β-class (K i = 95.6 nM), also showing a low affinity against the tested human isoforms. By applying docking procedures, we described the binding mode of the inhibitor 20e within the catalytic cavity of the modeled open conformation of VchCAβ.

Benzoxaboroles: New Potent Inhibitors of the Carbonic Anhydrases of the Pathogenic Bacterium Vibrio cholerae.

Project description:A series of urea/thiourea substituted benzoxaboroles was investigated for the inhibition of the three carbonic anhydrases encoded by Vibrio cholerae (VchCAα, VchCAβ, and VchCAγ). In particular, benzoxaborole derivatives were here first assayed for the inhibition of a γ-class CA, extending the panel of CA classes that benzoxaboroles efficiently target beyond α and β. Inhibition profiles demonstrated that VchCAα was significantly more inhibited compared to VchCAγ and, in turn, more efficiently modulated than VchCAβ. Among the many selective benzoxaborole ligands detected against VchCAα over the off-target hCA II, compound 18, a p-NO2-phenylthiourea derivative, even exhibited a fully selective inhibition profile against the three VchCAs over hCA II. A comprehensive ligand/target interaction study was performed in silico for all three VchCA isoforms providing the first molecular modeling investigation with inhibitors of a γ-class CA to the best of our knowledge. The present study reinforces the rationale behind the use of benzoxaboroles as innovative antibacterial agents with a new mechanism of action, furnishing suggestions for the rational design of new potent and selective inhibitors targeting V. cholerae CAs over human off-target ones.

Benzenesulfonamide derivatives as Vibrio cholerae carbonic anhydrases inhibitors: a computational-aided insight in the structural rigidity-activity relationships.

Project description:Vibrio cholerae causes life-threatening infections in low-income countries due to the rise of antibacterial resistance. Innovative pharmacological targets have been investigated and carbonic anhydrases (CAs, EC: 4.2.1.1) encoded by V. cholerae (VchCAs) emerged as a valuable option. Recently, we developed a large library of para- and meta-benzenesulfonamides characterised by moieties with a different flexibility degree as CAs inhibitors. Stopped flow-based enzymatic assays showed strong inhibition of VchαCA for this library, while lower affinity was detected against the other isoforms. In particular, cyclic urea 9c emerged for a nanomolar inhibition of VchαCA (KI = 4.7 nM) and high selectivity with respect to human isoenzymes (SI≥ 90). Computational studies revealed the influence of moiety flexibility on inhibitory activity and isoform selectivity and allowed accurate SARs. However, although VchCAs are involved in the bacterium virulence and not in its survival, we evaluated the antibacterial activity of such compounds, resulting in no direct activity.

4-amino-substituted benzenesulfonamides as inhibitors of human carbonic anhydrases.

Project description:A series of N-aryl-β-alanine derivatives and diazobenzenesulfonamides containing aliphatic rings were designed, synthesized, and their binding to carbonic anhydrases (CA) I, II, VI, VII, XII, and XIII was studied by the fluorescent thermal shift assay and isothermal titration calorimetry. The results showed that 4-substituted diazobenzenesulfonamides were more potent CA binders than N-aryl-β-alanine derivatives. Most of the N-aryl-β-alanine derivatives showed better affinity for CA II while diazobenzenesulfonamides possessed nanomolar affinities towards CA I isozyme. X-ray crystallographic structures showed the modes of binding of both compound groups.

Novel Indole-Based Hydrazones as Potent Inhibitors of the α-class Carbonic Anhydrase from Pathogenic Bacterium Vibrio cholerae.

Project description:Due to the increasing resistance of currently used antimicrobial drugs, there is an urgent problem for the treatment of cholera disease, selective inhibition of the α-class carbonic anhydrases (CA, EC 4.2.1.1) from the pathogenic bacterium Vibrio cholerae (VcCA) presents an alternative therapeutic target. In this study, a series of hydrazone derivatives, carrying the 2-(hydrazinocarbonyl)-3-phenyl-1H-indole-5-sulfonamide scaffold, have been evaluated as inhibitors of the VcCA with molecular modeling studies. The results suggest that these compounds may bind to the active site of VcCA. To verify this, VcCA enzyme inhibition studies were performed and as predicted most of the tested compounds displayed potent inhibitory activities against VcCA with three compounds showing KI values lower than 30 nM. In addition, all these compounds showed selectivity for VcCA and the off-targets hCA I and II.

Polyamines and α-Carbonic Anhydrases.

Project description:Natural products represent a straightforward source for molecular structures bearing a vast array of chemical features and potentially useful for biomedical purposes. Recent examples of this type include the discovery of the coumarins and the polyamine natural products as atypical chemotypes for the inhibition of the metalloenzymes carbonic anhydrases (CAs; EC 4.2.2.1). CA enzymes are established pharmacological targets for important pathologies, which, among others, include glaucoma, hypoxic tumors, and central nervous system (CNS)-affecting diseases. Moreover, they are expressed in many bacteria, fungi and helminths which are the etiological agents of the majority of infectious diseases. In this context, natural products represent the ideal source of new and selective druggable CA modulators for biomedical purposes. Herein we report the state of the art on polyamines of natural origin as well as of synthetic derivatives as inhibitors of human CAs.

Saccharin sulfonamides as inhibitors of carbonic anhydrases I, II, VII, XII, and XIII.

Project description:A series of modified saccharin sulfonamides have been designed as carbonic anhydrase (CA) inhibitors and synthesized. Their binding to CA isoforms I, II, VII, XII, and XIII was measured by the fluorescent thermal shift assay (FTSA) and isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC). Saccharin bound the CAs weakly, exhibiting the affinities of 1-10 mM for four CAs except CA I where binding could not be detected. Several sulfonamide-bearing saccharines exhibited strong affinities of 1-10 nM towards particular CA isoforms. The functional group binding Gibbs free energy additivity maps are presented which may provide insights into the design of compounds with increased affinity towards selected CAs.

Beta and Gamma Amino Acid-Substituted Benzenesulfonamides as Inhibitors of Human Carbonic Anhydrases.

Project description:A series of novel benzenesulfonamide derivatives were synthesized bearing para-N β,γ-amino acid or para-N β-amino acid and thiazole moieties and their binding to the human carbonic anhydrase (CA) isozymes determined. These enzymes are involved in various illnesses, such as glaucoma, altitude sickness, epilepsy, obesity, and even cancer. There are numerous compounds that are inhibitors of CA and used as pharmaceuticals. However, most of them bind to most CA isozymes with little selectivity. The design of high affinity and selectivity towards one CA isozyme remains a significant challenge. The beta and gamma amino acid-substituted compound affinities were determined by the fluorescent thermal shift assay and isothermal titration calorimetry for all 12 catalytically active human carbonic anhydrase isozymes, showing the full affinity and selectivity profile. The structures of several compounds were determined by X-ray crystallography, and the binding mode in the active site of CA enzyme was shown.

Thermostable Carbonic Anhydrases in Biotechnological Applications.

Project description:Carbonic anhydrases are ubiquitous metallo-enzymes which catalyze the reversible hydration of carbon dioxide in bicarbonate ions and protons. Recent years have seen an increasing interest in the utilization of these enzymes in CO2 capture and storage processes. However, since this use is greatly limited by the harsh conditions required in these processes, the employment of thermostable enzymes, both those isolated by thermophilic organisms and those obtained by protein engineering techniques, represents an interesting possibility. In this review we will provide an extensive description of the thermostable carbonic anhydrases so far reported and the main processes in which these enzymes have found an application.

α-Carbonic Anhydrases Possess Thioesterase Activity.

Project description:The α-carbonic anhydrases (CAs, EC 4.2.1.1) show catalytic versatility acting as esterases with carboxylic, sulfonic, and phosphate esters. Here we prove by kinetic, spectroscopic, and MS studies that they also possess thioesterase activity with a dithiocarbamate ester as a substrate (PhSO2NHCSSMe). Its CA-mediated hydrolysis leads to benzenesulfonamide, methyl mercaptan, and COS. The CA thioesterase activity may be useful for designing prodrug enzyme inhibitors, whereas some CA isoforms may use this activity for modulating physiologic/pathologic processes, which are possibly amenable to drug discovery of agents with multiple mechanisms of action.
