A new series of fluorene derivatives was designed and synthesized as novel retinoic acid receptor‐related orphan receptor gamma t (RORγt) inverse agonists utilizing a molecular hybridization approach. The new compounds 10 – 15 were evaluated for their RORγt activity using biochemical FRET and cellular reporter gene assays. Moreover, the inhibitory activity of the fluorene derivatives 10 – 15 in mouse Th17 cell differentiation assay was assessed. The hybrid compound 15 that combines both fluorene and arylsulfone moieties displayed promising RORγt activity with IC50 values of 68.6 and 99.5 nm in FRET and cellular assays, respectively. In addition, molecular modeling studies were employed to investigate potential binding mode of 15 to RORγt. These results render 15 a potential lead compound for development of therapeutics for Th17‐driven autoimmune diseases. 相似文献

A series of new imidazo[5,1-b]quinazoline derivatives (VII-IX) was designed, synthesized, and biologically evaluated for their in vivo hypotensive or hypertensive activities. The design of these compounds was based upon the molecular modeling simulation of the fitting values and conformational energy values of the best-fitted conformers to both the alpha(1)-adrenoceptor (alpha(1)-AR) agonist and alpha(1)-adrenoceptor (alpha(1)-AR) antagonist hypotheses. These hypotheses were generated from their corresponding lead compounds using CATALYST software. The simulation studies predicted that compounds IXa and IXe would have probable affinity for the alpha(1)-AR antagonist hypothesis, while compounds IXb, IXc, and IXg predicted a higher affinity for the alpha(1)-AR agonist hypothesis. In vivo biological evaluation of these compounds for their effects on the blood pressure of normotensive cats was consistent with the results of molecular modeling studies, where compounds IXa and IXe exhibited hypotensive activity, while compounds IXb, IXc, and IXg resulted in increasing the blood pressure of the experimental animals at different doses. 相似文献

A series of new 3-mercapto-2-methyl-propanoyl-pyrrolidine derivatives (V, VIa–e) were designed. A new validated ACE inhibitors pharmacophore model (hypothesis) was generated for the first time in this research from the biologically active (frozen) conformation of Lisinopril–Human ACE complex that was downloaded from PDB, using stepwise technique of CATALYST modules. The molecular modeling compare–fit study of the designed molecules (V, VIa–e), with such ACE inhibitors hypothesis was fulfilled, and several compounds showed significant high simulation fit values. The compounds with high fit values were synthesized and biologically evaluated in vivo as hypotensive agents. It appears that the in vivo hypotensive activity of compounds V, VIa, VIb, and VIe was consistent with their molecular modeling results, and compound VIe showed the highest activity in comparison to Captopril. 相似文献

A series of novel indoles were designed and their molecular modeling simulation study including fitting to a 3D pharmacophore model using CATALYST program and their docking into the NS3 active site was examined as HCV NS3 protease inhibitor. Several compounds showed significant high simulation docking score and fit values. The designed compounds were synthesized and biologically evaluated in vitro using an NS3 protease binding assay, where compounds 10a-k showed significant inhibitory activity (> or =67% inhibition at 100 microg/mL). Of these, compounds 10c and 10f demonstrated potent HCV NS3 protease inhibitors with IC(50) values of 15 and 13 microM, respectively. Enantio-selective Michael addition of an indole derivative in the presence of catalytic amount of AlCl(3) and quinine at room temperature afforded the adduct 7e in excellent yield with 73% ee. The product was converted into 10l, which showed lower activity than the mixture of the corresponding diastereoisomers. 相似文献

Different series of novel thieno [2,3-d]pyrimidine derivative (9a-d,10a-f,l,m and 15a-m) were designed, synthesized and evaluated for their ability to in vitro inhibit VEGFR-2 enzyme. Also, the cytotoxicity of the final compounds was tested against a panel of 60 different human cancer cell lines by NCI. The VEGFR-2 enzyme inhibitory results revealed that compounds 10d, 15d and 15 g are among the most active inhibitors with IC50 values of 2.5, 5.48 and 2.27 µM respectively, while compound 10a remarkably showed the highest cell growth inhibition with mean growth inhibition (GI) percent of 31.57%. It exhibited broad spectrum anti-proliferative activity against several NCI cell lines specifically on human breast cancer (T7-47D) and renal cancer (A498) cell lines of 85.5% and 77.65% inhibition respectively. To investigate the mechanistic aspects underlying the activity, further biological studies like flow cytometry cell cycle together with caspase-3 colorimetric assays were carried on compound 10a. Flow cytometric analysis on both MCV-7 and PC-3 cancer cells revealed that it induced cell-cycle arrest in the G0-G1phase and reinforced apoptosis via activation of caspase-3. Furthermore, molecular modeling studies have been carried out to gain further understanding of the binding mode in the active site of VEGFR-2 enzyme and predict pharmacokinetic properties of all the synthesized inhibitors. 相似文献

In an attempt to identify potential HCV NS3 protease inhibitors lead compounds, a series of novel indoles (10a-g) was designed. Molecular modeling study, including fitting to a 3D-pharmacophore model of the designed molecules (10a-g), with HCV NS3 protease hypothesis using catalyst program was fulfilled. Also, the molecular docking into the NS3 active site was examined using Discovery Studio 2.5 software. Several compounds showed significant high simulation docking score and fit values. The designed compounds with high docking score and fit values were synthesized and biologically evaluated in vitro using an NS3 protease binding assay. It appears that most of the tested compounds reveal promising inhibitory activity against NS3 protease. Of these, compounds 10a and 10b demonstrated potent HCV NS3 protease inhibitors with IC50 values of 9 and 12 ??g/mL, respectively. The experimental serine protease inhibitor activities of compounds 10a-g were consistent with their molecular modeling results. Inhibitors from this class have promising characteristics for further development as anti-HCV agents. 相似文献

New quinoline-3-carbonitrile derivatives were synthesized and evaluated for their potential antibacterial behavior. Compounds were obtained by a one-pot multicomponent reaction of appropriate aldehyde, ethyl cyanoacetate, 6-methoxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-naphthalin-1-one and ammonium acetate. Structures were established by different physical and spectroscopic techniques. The molecular geometry, vibration frequencies, HOMO–LUMO energy gap, molecular hardness (g), ionization energy (IE), electron affinity (EA), and total energy of these compounds was assessed by DFT studies, employing DFT/RB3LYP method. Preliminary antibacterial studies using both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacterial strains and cytotoxicity studies on mammalian cells revealed their promising antibacterial activity, without causing any severe host toxicity. All the compounds (QD1-QD5) in this study obeyed the ‘Lipinski’s Rule of Five’ with logP values <5 and HBA <10, hydrogen bond donor’s <5. The most active compound QD4 showed good interaction with the target DNA gyrase; target enzyme for quinoline class of antibiotics, which reveals its probable mechanism of action. Results of all these studies establish these compounds as important scaffolds with broad-spectrum antibacterial activity with no off-target toxicity. Having lower band gap energy of 3.40 eV and a low lying LUMO for compound QD4, this compound may be a valuable starting point for the development of quinoline-3-carbonitrile based broad-spectrum antibacterial agents. 相似文献

Judicial structural modifications of 5:7-fused ring-expanded nucleosides (RENs), based on molecular modeling studies with one of its known targets, human RNA helicase (hDDX3), led to the lead, novel, 5:7-5-fused tricyclic heterocycle (1). The latter exhibited promising broad-spectrum in vitro anti-cancer activity against a number of cancer cell lines screened. This paper describes our systematic, albeit limited, structure–activity relationship (SAR) studies on this lead compound, which produced a number of analogs with broad-spectrum in vitro anti-cancer activities against lung, breast, prostate, and ovarian cancer cell lines, in particular compounds 15i, 15j, 15m and 15n which showed IC50 values in submicromolar to micromolar range, and are worthy of further explorations. The SAR data also enabled us to propose a tentative SAR model for future SAR efforts for ultimate realization of optimally active and minimally toxic anti-cancer compounds based on the diimidazo[4,5-d:4′,5′-f][1,3]diazepine structural skeleton of the lead compound 1. 相似文献

Fourteen N-acetylated and non-acetylated 3,4,5-tri- or 2,5-dimethoxypyrazoline analogs of combretastatin-A4 (1) were synthesized. A non-acetylated derivative (5a) with the same substituents as CA-4 (1) was the most active compound in the series, with IC(50) values of 2.1 and 0.5 microM in B16 and L1210 cell lines, respectively. In contrast, a similar compound with an acetyl group at N1 of the pyrazoline ring (6g) showed poor activity in the cell lines studied. A cell-based assay indicated that compound 5a caused extensive microtubule depolymerization with an EC(50) value of 7.1 microM in A-10 cells while no activity was seen with the acetylated compound. Molecular modeling studies showed that these compounds possess a twisted conformation similar to CA-4 (1). 相似文献

The development of SrtA inhibitors targeting the biothreat organism namely Bacillus anthracis was achieved by the combined approach of pharmacophore modeling, binding interactions, electron transferring capacity, ADME, and Molecular dynamics studies. In this study, experimentally reported Ba-SrtA inhibitors (pyridazinone and pyrazolethione derivatives) were considered for the development of enhanced pharmacophoric model. The obtained AAAHR hypothesis was a pure theoretical concept that accounts for common molecular interaction network present in experimentally active pyridazinone and pyrazolethione derivatives. Pharmacophore-based screening of AAAHR hypothesis provides several new compounds, and those compounds were treated with four phases of docking protocols with combined Glide-QPLD docking approach. In this approach, scoring and charge accuracy variations were seen to be dominated by QM/MM approach through the allocation of partial charges. Finally, we reported the best compounds from binding db, Chembridge db, and Toslab based on scoring values, energy parameters, electron transfer reaction, ADME, and cell adhesion inhibition activity. The dynamic state of interaction and binding energy assess that new compounds are more active inside the binding pocket and these compounds on experimental validations will survive as better inhibitors for targeting the cell adhesion mechanism of Ba-SrtA. 相似文献

Discovering a potential drug for HCV treatment is a challenging task in the field of drug research. This study initiates with computational screening and modeling of promising ligand molecules. The foremost modeling method involves the identification of novel compound and its molecular interaction based on pharmacophore features. A total of 197 HCV compounds for NS3/4A protein target were screened for our study. The pharmacophore models were generated using PHASE module implemented in Schrodinger suite. The pharmacophore features include one hydrogen bond acceptor, one hydrogen bond donor, and three hydrophobic sites. As a result, based on mentioned hypothesis the model ADHHH.159 corresponds to the CID 59533233. Furthermore, docking was performed using maestro for all the 197 compounds. Among these, the CID 59533313 and 59533233 possess the best binding energy of ?11.75 and ?10.40 kcal/mol, respectively. The interactions studies indicated that the CID complexed with the NS3/4A protein possess better binding affinity with the other compounds. Further the compounds were subjected to calculate the ADME properties. Therefore, it can be concluded that these two compounds could be a potential alternative drug for the development of HCV. 相似文献

Single enantiomers of the new 5-methyl-3-aryloxazolidine-2,4-diones have been obtained either by an asymmetric synthesis using the chiral pool strategy or by a semipreparative resolution of the racemic compound by HPLC on an optically active stationary phase. The single enantiomers were assayed for their in vitro monoamine oxidase (hMAO) inhibitory activity and selectivity. The most potent inhibitor among the studied compounds has been found as (5R)-3-phenyl-5-methyl-2,4-oxazolidinedione (compound 1-R) which appeared to be a good antidepressant drug candidate since it inhibited hMAO-A selectively, competitively and reversibly with Ki values in the micromolar range (0.16 ± 0.01 μM). To better understand the enzyme-inhibitor interaction and to explain the efficiency and selectivity of the compounds toward hMAOs, molecular modeling studies were carried out on new, high resolution hMAO-A and hMAO-B crystallographic structures. According to binding energies and inhibition constants obtained from molecular docking calculations, compound 1-R has been found as the most selective MAO-A inhibitor and its weak binding affinities to MAO-B (large Ki values) led to the enhancement in MAO-A selectivity. It bounded in close proximity to FAD in the active site of MAO-A and situated near the aromatic cage by means of π-alkyl interactions with Tyr407 and Phe352 whereas its position in MAO-B was 10 Å far from FAD and it was situated outside the Ile199 gate of the active site. None of the studied compounds showed any cytototoxicity on HepG2 cells at 1 and 5 µM concentrations. 相似文献

New monoamine oxidase inhibitors were synthesized as indole analogues of a previously reported pyrrole series. Several compounds were potent MAO-A (12, 17, 19-22, 31, 36, and 37) or MAO-B (14, 20, 24, 38, 44, and 46) inhibitors, and had K(i) values in the nanomolar concentration range. In particular, 22 (K(i)=0.00092 microM, and SI=68,478) was exceptionally potent and selective as MAO-A inhibitor. In molecular modeling studies, compounds 22, 24, 44, and 46 positioned the indole ring into an aromatic cavity of MAO-A, and established pi-pi stacking interactions with Tyr407, Tyr444, and FAD cofactor. However, only compound 22 was able to form hydrogen bonds with FAD, a finding which was in accordance with its potent anti-MAO-A activity. Conversely, 22/MAOB complex was highly unstable during the MD simulation. 相似文献

A series of pyrazoles and pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyridazinones were synthesized and evaluated for their PDE4 inhibitory activity. All the pyrazoles were found devoid of activity, whereas some of the novel pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyridazinones showed good activity as PDE4 inhibitors. The most potent compounds in this series showed an IC50 in the nanomolar range. The ability to inhibit TNF-α release in human PBMCs was determined for two representative compounds, finding values in the sub-micromolar range. SARs studies demonstrated that the best arranged groups around the heterocyclic core are 2-chloro-, 2-methyl- and 3-nitrophenyl at position 2, an ethyl ester at position 4 and a small alkyl group at position 6. Molecular modeling studies performed on a representative compound allowed to define its binding mode to the PDE4B isoform. 相似文献

A number of novel indomethacin glycolamide esters were synthesized and tested for their cyclooxygenase (COX-1 and COX-2) inhibition properties in vitro. Many of these compounds proved to be selective COX-2 inhibitors, and subtle structural changes in the substituents on the glycolamide ester moiety altered the inhibitory properties as well as potencies significantly. Their in vitro data were rationalized through molecular modeling studies. Few of them displayed anti-inflammatory activity in vivo. Compound 32, [1-(4-chlorobenzoyl)-5-methoxy-2-methyl-1H-indol-3-yl]acetic acid 2-morpholin-4-yl-2-oxo ethyl ester, was identified as a promising compound in this class and its good anti-inflammatory activity was demonstrated in the in vivo model. 相似文献

A new series of tacrine-multialkoxybenzene hybrids (9a-9n) were designed, synthesized and evaluated as dual inhibitors of cholinesterases (ChEs) and self-induced β-amyloid (Aβ) aggregation. All the synthesized compounds had high acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE) inhibitory activity with IC?? values at the nanomolar range, which were much better than tacrine alone. A Lineweaver-Burk plot and molecular modeling study showed that these hybrids targeted both the catalytic active site (CAS) and the peripheral anionic site (PAS) of AChE. Besides, compounds 9a-9f with methylenedioxybenzene moiety showed higher self-induced Aβ aggregation inhibitory activity than a reference compound, curcumin. These compounds could be selected as multi-potent agents for further investigation to treat AD. 相似文献

In order to produce potent new leads for anticancer drugs, a new series of quinazoline analogs was designed to resemble methotrexate (MTX, 1) structure features and fitted with functional groups believed to enhance inhibition of mammalian DHFR activity. Molecular modeling studies were used to assess the fit of these compounds within the active site of human DHFR. The synthesized compounds were evaluated for their ability to inhibit mammalian DHFR in vitro and for their antitumor activity in a standard in vitro tissue culture assay panel. Compounds 28, 30, and 31 were the most active DHFR inhibitors with IC50 values of 0.5, 0.4, and 0.4 μM, respectively. The most active antitumor agents in this study were compounds 19, 31, 41, and 47 with median growth inhibitory concentrations (GI50) of 20.1, 23.5, 26.7, and 9.1 μM, respectively. Of this series of compounds, only compound 31 combined antitumor potency with potent DHFR inhibition; the other active antitumor compounds (19, 41, and 47) all had DHFR IC50 values above 15 μM, suggesting that they might exert their antitumor potency through some other mode of action. Alternatively, the compounds could differ significantly in uptake or concentration within mammalian cells. 相似文献

A group of N-benzylpiperidine-3/4-carbohydrazide-hydrazones were designed, synthesized and evaluated for acetylcholinesterase (AChE), butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE) activities, Aβ42 self-aggregation inhibitory potentials, and antioxidant capacities, in vitro. All of the compounds displayed eeAChE and huAChE inhibitory activity in a range of IC50 = 5.68–11.35 µM and IC50 = 8.80–74.40 µM, respectively and most of the compounds exhibited good to moderate inhibitory activity on BuChE enzyme. Kinetic analysis and molecular modeling studies were also performed for the most potent compounds (1g and 1j). Not only the molecular modeling studies but also the kinetic analysis suggested that these compounds might be able to interact with the catalytic active site (CAS) and the peripheral anionic site (PAS) of the enzymes. In the light of the results, compound 1g and compound 1j may be suggested as lead compounds for multifunctional therapy of AD. 相似文献
