The well-reported, but moderate antitumor activity of the acronycine alkaloid led us to synthesize a novel series of thioacridone compounds related to acronycine, as potential anticancer agents. Compounds were designed either as DNA intercalating agents, or as DNA intercalating agents with covalent bond forming potential. Bathochromic shifts of the compounds upon complexation with salmon testis DNA suggested intercalation as the mode of DNA binding. The binding interaction of the compounds was found to be approximately 10(2) M(-1), with that of the most potent compound 1-(2-dimethylaminoethylamino)-9(10H)-thioacridone, 10(4) M(-1). In vitro cytotoxic activity (IC50) against HL-60 cells was found to range between 3.5 and 22 microg/mL. QSAR analyses yielded a multiple linear regression equation with an r2 of 0.847 for DNA binding and an r2 of 0.575 for cytotoxicity. The physicochemical parameters used in the QSAR analyses were logP, polar surface area, and calculated molar refractivity. Docking studies were also performed to compare the binding of the most potent and least potent compounds in the study in order to predict desirable chemical characteristics for further exploitation in drug design efforts. The thioacridone compounds in this series demonstrate cytotoxic activity in vitro that merit future in vivo evaluation. 相似文献

Transthyretin (TTR) is one of thirty non-homologous proteins whose misfolding, dissociation, aggregation, and deposition is linked to human amyloid diseases. Previous studies have identified that TTR amyloidogenesis can be inhibited through stabilization of the native tetramer state by small molecule binding to the thyroid hormone sites of TTR. We have evaluated a new series of β-aminoxypropionic acids (compounds 5–21), with a single aromatic moiety (aryl or fluorenyl) linked through a flexible oxime tether to a carboxylic acid. These compounds are structurally distinct from the native ligand thyroxine and typical halogenated biaryl NSAID-like inhibitors to avoid off-target hormonal or anti-inflammatory activity. Based on an in vitro fibril formation assay, five of these compounds showed significant inhibition of TTR amyloidogenesis, with two fluorenyl compounds displaying inhibitor efficacy comparable to the well-known TTR inhibitor diflunisal. Fluorenyl 15 is the most potent compound in this series and importantly does not show off-target anti-inflammatory activity. Crystal structures of the TTR∶inhibitor complexes, in agreement with molecular docking studies, revealed that the aromatic moiety, linked to the sp2-hybridized oxime carbon, specifically directed the ligand in either a forward or reverse binding mode. Compared to the aryl family members, the bulkier fluorenyl analogs achieved more extensive interactions with the binding pockets of TTR and demonstrated better inhibitory activity in the fibril formation assay. Preliminary optimization efforts are described that focused on replacement of the C-terminal acid in both the aryl and fluorenyl series (compounds 22–32). The compounds presented here constitute a new class of TTR inhibitors that may hold promise in treating amyloid diseases associated with TTR misfolding. 相似文献

Oxadiazole derivatives were synthesized and evaluated for their ability to inhibit tubulin polymerization and to cause mitotic arrest in tumor cells. The most potent compounds inhibited tubulin polymerization at concentrations below 1 microM. Lead analogs caused mitotic arrest of A431 human epidermoid cells and cells derived from multi-drug resistant tumors (10, EC(50)=7.8 nM). Competition for the colchicine binding site and pharmacokinetic properties of selected potent compounds were also investigated and are reported herein, along with structure-activity relationships for this novel series of antimitotic agents. 相似文献

A directed screen of a relatively small number of compounds, selected for kinase ATP pocket binding potential, yielded a novel series of hit compounds (1). Hit explosion on two binding residues identified compounds 27 and 43 as the best leads for an optimization program having reduced secondary metabolism, as measured by in vitro rat hepatocytes incubation, leading to oral bio-availability. Structure-activity relationships and molecular modeling have suggested a binding mode for the most potent inhibitor 12. 相似文献

Mannich bases consisting of 1,3,4-oxadiazole-2-thione ( 3 a – 3 l ) bearing various substituents were synthesized and found potent jack bean urease inhibitors. The prepared compounds showed significantly good inhibitory activities with IC50 values from 9.45±0.05 to 267.42±0.23 μM. The compound 3 k containing 4-chlorophenyl (−R) and 4-hydroxyphenyl (−R′) was most active with IC50 9.45±0.05 μM followed by 3 e (IC50 22.52±0.15 μM) in which −R was phenyl and −R′ was isopropyl group. However, when both −R and −R′ were either 4-chlorophenyl groups ( 3 l ) or only −R′ was 4-nitrophenyl ( 3 i ), both compounds were found inactive. The detailed binding affinities of the produced compounds with protein were explored through molecular docking and data-supported in-vitro enzyme inhibition profiles. Drug likeness was confirmed by in silico ADME investigations and molecular orbital analysis (HOMO-LUMO) and electrostatic potential maps were got from DFT calculations. ESP maps exposed that there are two potential binding sites with the most positive and most negative parts. 相似文献

A series of novel rhodanine-based acylsulfonamide derivatives were designed, synthesized, and evaluated as small-molecule inhibitors of anti-apoptotic Bcl-2 protein. These compounds exhibit potent antiproliferative activity in three human tumor cell lines (Hep G2, PC-3 and B16-F10). Among them, the most potent compounds 10 and 11 bind to Bcl-2 with a K(i) of 20 and 25 nM, respectively. Docking studies demonstrated that these two compounds orient similarly at the binding site of Bcl-2, and the calculated binding affinities (Glide XP score) of compound 10 is more negative than that of compound 11. The binding interactions of compounds with high binding affinity to Bcl-2 protein were analyzed. 相似文献

MCSS and LeapFrog, two de novo drug design programs, were used for the novel indole-based PPARgamma ligands' study. The designed compounds were synthesized and tested for the PPARgamma protein binding activities in vitro. Out of the compounds that were synthesized, two molecules (compounds 14d and 7d) possessed potent PPARgamma protein binding activity close to rosiglitazone in vitro. 相似文献

A series of meperidine analogues was synthesized and the binding affinities for the dopamine and serotonin transporters were determined. The substituents on the phenyl ring greatly influenced the potency and selectivity of these compounds for the transporter binding sites. In general, meperidine (3) and its analogues were more selective for serotonin transporter binding sites and the esters 9 were more potent than the corresponding nitriles 8. The 3,4-dichloro derivative 9e was the most potent ligand of the series for dopamine transporter binding sites while the 2-naphthyl derivative 9g exhibited the most potent binding affinity and was highly selective for serotonin transporter binding sites. 相似文献

Pyridopyrimidine-based analogues are among the most highly potent and selective antagonists of cholecystokinin receptor subtype-1
(CCK1R) described to date. To better understand the structural and chemical features responsible for the recognition mechanism,
and to explore the binding pocket of these compounds, we performed automated molecular docking using GOLD2.2 software on some
derivatives with structural diversity, and propose a putative binding conformation for each compound. The docking protocol
was guided by the key role of the Asn333 residue, as revealed by site directed mutagenesis studies. The results suggest two
putative binding modes located in the same pocket. Both are characterized by interaction with the main residues revealed by
experiment, Asn333 and Arg336, and differ in the spatial position of the Boc-Trp moiety of these compounds. Hydrophobic contacts with residues Thr117, Phe107, Ile352 and Ile329 are also in agreement
with experimental data. Despite the poor correlation obtained between the estimated binding energies and the experimental
activity, the proposed models allow us to suggest a plausible explanation of the observed binding data in accordance with
chemical characteristics of the compounds, and also to explain the observed diastereoselectivity of this family of antagonists
towards CCK1R. The most reasonable selected binding conformations could be the starting point for future studies.

We report comprehensive structure-activity relationship studies on a novel series of c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) inhibitors. Intriguingly, the compounds have a dual inhibitory activity by functioning as both ATP and JIP mimetics, possibly by binding to both the ATP binding site and to the docking site of the kinase. Several of such novel compounds display potent JNK inhibitory profiles both in vitro and in cell. 相似文献

Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) from the outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria belongs to the most potent activators of the mammalian immune system. Its lipid moiety, lipid A, the 'endotoxic principle' of LPS, carries two negatively charged phosphate groups and six acyl chain residues in a defined asymmetric distribution (corresponding to synthetic compound 506). Tetraacyl lipid A (precursor IVa or synthetic 406), which lacks the two hydroxylated acyl chains, is agonistically completely inactive, but is a strong antagonist to bioactive LPS when administered to the cells before LPS addition. The two negative charges of lipid A, represented by the two phosphate groups, are essential for agonistic as well as for antagonistic activity and no highly active lipid A are known with negative charges other than phosphate groups. We hypothesized that the phosphate groups could be substituted by other negatively charged groups without changing the endotoxic properties of lipid A. To test this hypothesis, we synthesized carboxymethyl (CM) derivatives of hexaacyl lipid A (CM-506 and Bis-CM-506) and of tetraacyl lipid A (Bis-CM-406) and correlated their physicochemical with their endotoxic properties. We found that, similarly to compounds 506 and 406, also for their carboxymethyl derivatives a particular molecular ('endotoxic') conformation and with that, a particular aggregate structure is a prerequisite for high cytokine-inducing capacity and antagonistic activity, respectively. In other parameters such as acyl chain melting behaviour, antibody binding, activity in the Limulus lysate assay, and partially the binding of 3-deoxy-D-manno-oct-2-ulosonic acid transferase, strong deviations from the properties of the phosphorylated compounds were observed. These data allow a better understanding of endotoxic activity and its structural prerequisites. 相似文献

Thymidine phosphorylase (TP) is an angiogenic enzyme. It plays an important role in angiogenesis, tumour growth, invasion and metastasis. In current research work, we study the effect of structural modification of dihydropyrimidine-2-ones (DHPM-2-ones) on TP inhibition. A series of eighteen new derivatives of 3,4-dihydropyrimidone-2-one were designed and synthesized through the structural modification at C-6 position. All these new derivatives were then assessed for in-vitro inhibition of thymidine phosphorylase (TP) from E. coli. Oxadiazole derivatives 4a-e exhibited excellent TP-inhibition at low micromolar concentration levels better than standard drug 7-deazaxanthine (7-DX). Among all these compounds, 4b was found to be the most potent with IC50 = 1.09 ± 0.004 μM. Anti-angiogenesis potential of representative compounds were also studied in a chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) assay. Here again, compound 4b was found to be the potent anti-angiogenesis compound in a CAM assay. Docking studies were also performed with Molecular Operating Environment (MOE) to further analyse the mode of inhibition of these compounds. Binding mode analysis of the most active inhibitors showed that these are well accommodated into the binding site of enzyme though stable hydrogen bonding and hydrophobic interactions. 相似文献

A series of hybrids containing tacrine linked to carbohydrate-based moieties, such as d-xylose, d-ribose, and d-galactose derivatives, were synthesized by the nucleophilic substitution between 9-aminoalkylamino-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroacridines and the corresponding sugar-based tosylates. All compounds were found to be potent inhibitors of both acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE) in the nanomolar IC50 scale. Most of the d-xylose derivatives (6a-e) were selective for AChE and the compound 6e (IC50?=?2.2?nM for AChE and 4.93?nM for BuChE) was the most active compound for both enzymes. The d-galactose derivative 8a was the most selective for AChE exhibiting an IC50 ratio of 7.6 for AChE over BuChE. Only two compounds showed a preference for BuChE, namely 7a (d-ribose derivative) and 6b (d-xylose derivative). Molecular docking studies indicated that the inhibitors are capable of interacting with the entire binding cavity and the main contribution of the linker is to enable the most favorable positioning of the two moieties with CAS, PAS, and hydrophobic pocket to provide optimal interactions with the binding cavity. This finding is reinforced by the fact that there is no linear correlation between the linker size and the observed binding affinities. The majority of the new hybrids synthesized in this work do not violate the Lipinski's rule-of-five according to FAF-Drugs4, and do not demonstrated predicted hepatotoxicity according ProTox-II. 相似文献

Eight derivatives of tetrahydropyrimidine scaffold were designed and prepared as hybrid compounds possessing the structural features of both monastrol as an anticancer drug and nifedipine as a fascin blocking agent. All of the compounds were evaluated for their cytotoxic potency and the ability to inhibit 4T1 breast cancer cells migration. Then, they were investigated in silico for their ability to inhibit the fascin protein using molecular docking simulation. The most potent compound was 4d and the weakest one was 4a according to the in vitro cytotoxicity assay. The corresponding IC50 values were 193.70 and 248.75 μm , respectively. The least cytotoxic compound ( 4a ) was one of the strongest ones in binding to the fascin binding site according to the molecular docking results. 4a and 4e inhibited the 4T1 cells migration better than other compounds. They were more potent than nifedipine in inhibiting the migration process. In silico studies proved 4h to be the most potent fascin inhibitor in terms of ΔGbind although it was not inhibiting migration. The controversy between the in vitro and in silico results may cancel the theory of the involvement of the fascin inhibition in the migration inhibition. However, the considerable antimigratory effects of some of the synthesized compounds encourage performing further in vivo experiments to introduce novel tumor metastasis inhibitors. 相似文献

S-Nitrosoglutathione (GSNO) undergoes spontaneous degradation that generates several nitrogen-containing compounds and oxidized glutathione derivatives. We identified glutathione sulfonic acid, glutathione disulfide S-oxide (GS(O)SG), glutathione disulfide S-dioxide, and GSSG as the major decomposition products of GSNO. Each of these compounds and GSNO were tested for their efficacies to modify rat brain neurogranin/RC3 (Ng) and neuromodulin/GAP-43 (Nm). Among them, GS(O)SG was found to be the most potent in causing glutathiolation of both proteins; four glutathiones were incorporated into the four Cys residues of Ng, and two were incorporated into the two Cys residues of Nm. Ng and Nm are two in vivo substrates of protein kinase C; their phosphorylations by protein kinase C attenuate the binding affinities of both proteins for calmodulin. When compared with their respective unmodified forms, the glutathiolated Ng was a poorer substrate and glutathiolated Nm a better substrate for protein kinase C. Glutathiolation of these two proteins caused no change in their binding affinities for calmodulin. Treatment of [(35)S]cysteine-labeled rat brain slices with xanthine/xanthine oxidase or a combination of xanthine/xanthine oxidase with sodium nitroprusside resulted in an increase in cellular level of GS(O)SG. These treatments, as well as those by other oxidants, all resulted in an increase in thiolation of proteins; among them, thiolation of Ng was positively identified by immunoprecipitation. These results show that GS(O)SG is one of the most potent glutathiolating agents generated upon oxidative stress. 相似文献

COVID-19 is a progressing pandemic of coronavirus disease-2019, which had drowned the whole world in a deep sorrow sea. Uncountable deaths were extending the list of deaths every single day. The present research was aimed to study the multi-target interaction of coumarins against COVID-19 using molecular docking analysis. The structure of coumarin compounds was checked for ADME and Lipinski rule of five by using SwissADME, an online tool. SARS-CoV-2 proteins such as RdRp, PLpro, Mpro and spike protein were collected from the Protein Data Bank. The molecular docking study was performed in the PyRx tool, and the molecular interactions were visualised by Discovery Studio Visualizer. All the coumarin compounds used in the study were obeyed Lipinski’s rule of 5 without any violations. All the three designed derivatives of phenprocoumon, hymecromone, and psoralen were showed high binding affinity and prominent interactions with the drug target. The presence of –OH groups in the compound, His41, a catalytic dyad in Mpro, number of and the distance of hydrogen bond interactions with SARS-CoV-2 targets was accountable for the high binding attractions. The modified drug structures possess better binding efficacy towards at least three targets compared to their parent compounds. Further, molecular dynamic studies can be suggested to find the ligand–protein complex stability. The present study outcome reveals that the designed coumarins can be synthesised and examined as a potent inhibitory drug of SARS-CoV-2. 相似文献

The estrogen receptor (ER) has played an important role in breast cancer development and progression and is a central target for anticancer drug discovery. In order to develop novel selective ERα modulators (SERMs), we designed and synthesized 18 novel 3-aryl-4-anilino-2H-chromen-2-one derivatives based on previously reported lead compounds. The biological results indicated that most of the compounds presented potent ERα binding affinity and possessed better anti-proliferative activities against MCF-7 and Ishikawa cell lines than the positive control tamoxifen. The piperidyl substituted compounds such as 16d and 18d demonstrated strong ERα binding affinities and excellent anti-proliferative activities respectively. Compound 18d displayed the most potent ERα binding affinity with RBA value of 2.83%, while 16d exhibited the best anti-proliferative activity against MCF-7 cells with IC50 value of 4.52 ± 2.47 μM. Further molecular docking studies were also carried out to investigate binding pattern of the newly synthesized compounds with ERα. All these results together with the structure–activity relationships (SARs) indicated that these 3-aryl-4-anilino-2H-chromen-2-one derivatives with basic side chain could serve as promising leads for further optimization as novel SERMs. 相似文献

A series of novel chalcone derivatives have been designed and synthesized, and their biological activities were also evaluated as potential inhibitors of tubulin. These compounds were assayed for growth-inhibitory activity against MCF-7 and A549 cell lines in vitro. Compound 3d showed the most potent antiproliferative activity against MCF-7 and A549 cell lines with IC(50) values of 0.03 and 0.95 μg/mL and exhibited the most potent tubulin inhibitory activity with IC(50) of 1.42 μg/mL. Docking simulation was performed to insert compound 3d into the crystal structure of tubulin at colchicines binding site to determine the probable binding model. Based on the preliminary results, compound 3d with potent inhibitory activity in tumor growth may be a potential anticancer agent. 相似文献

The biphenyl amides (BPAs) are a series of p38α MAP kinase inhibitors. Compounds are able to bind to the kinase in either the DFG-in or DFG-out conformation, depending on substituents. X-ray, binding, kinetic and cellular data are shown, providing the most detailed comparison to date between potent compounds from the same chemical series that bind to different p38α conformations. DFG-out-binding compounds could be made more potent than DFG-in-binding compounds by increasing their size. Unexpectedly, compounds that bound to the DGF-out conformation showed diminished selectivity. The kinetics of binding to the isolated enzyme and the effects of compounds on cells were largely unaffected by the kinase conformation bound. 相似文献

Three series of N6-substituted adenosine derivatives were synthesized, having in common an unbranched alkyl chain with lengths varying from 2 to 12 methylene units, but differing in their omega-alkyl substituents: N6-n-alkyladenosines (I), N6-omega-amino-alkyladenosines (II) and alpha omega,di-(adenosin-N6-yl)alkanes (III). The compounds of the latter series combine two functional groups in one molecule. A1-receptor affinity of these compounds was measured as inhibition of [3H]PIA binding to calf brain membranes. With relatively short chain lengths, compounds in series I are the most potent. In this series, optimum activity is reached with N6-n-pentyladenosine (Ki = 0.50 nM). With short chain lengths, compounds in series II and III are 6-20-fold less potent than their congeners in series I. The potency order however is reversed with higher chain lengths. While affinity in series II and III increases strongly, reaching an optimum with the nonyl derivatives, affinity in series I decreases sharply with alkyl chains larger than 8 methylene units. Highest affinity is found with 9-amino-nonyladenosine (Ki = 0.32 nM). In general, the omega-aminoalkyl derivatives are somewhat more potent than the corresponding di-adenosinyl derivatives. Implications for the possible topography of the N6 region of the A1-receptor and the area further removed from N6 are discussed. 相似文献
