Lysine specific demethylase 1 (LSD1) is a flavin-dependent amine oxidase that selectively removes one or two methyl groups from H3 at Lys4 and is recognized as a promising therapeutic target for cancer and other diseases. Here, a series of 3-oxoamino-benzenesulfonamides were synthesized and evaluated for their inhibitory activity against LSD1. Compounds 7b and 7h showed the most potent inhibition with the IC50 values of 9.5 and 6.9 μM, respectively. Furthermore, the LSD1 inhibition of 7b and 7h were reversible and selective. Docking study presented the possible binding mode between 7b, 7h and the LSD1 active site. Taken together, 3-oxoamino-benzenesulfonamides may represent a new class of reversible LSD1 inhibitors and 7b and 7h were two hit compounds deserved further structural optimization. 相似文献

We report the design, synthesis and biological evaluation of 17 novel 8-aryl-2-morpholino-3,4-dihydroquinazoline derivatives based on the standard model of DNA-PK and PI3K inhibitors. Novel compounds are sub-divided into two series where the second series of five derivatives was designed to have a better solubility profile over the first one. A combination of in vitro and in silico techniques suggested a plausible synergistic effect with doxorubicin of the most potent compound 14d on cell proliferation via DNA-PK and poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) inhibition, while alone having a negligible effect on cell proliferation. 相似文献

Inosine 5′-monophosphate dehydrogenase (IMPDH, EC 1.1.1.205) catalyzes a crucial step in guanine nucleotide biosynthesis, thereby governing cell proliferation. In contrast to mammalian IMPDHs, microbial IMPDHs are relatively less explored as potential targets for antimicrobial drug discovery. In continuation with our previous work, here we report the discovery of moderately potent and highly selective Helicobacter pylori IMPDH (HpIMPDH) inhibitors. The present study is mainly focused around our previously identified, modestly potent and relatively nonselective (for HpIMPDH over human IMPDH2) hit molecule IX (16i). In an attempt to optimize the selectivity for the bacterial enzyme, we screened a set of 48 redesigned new chemical entities (NCEs) belonging to 5-aminoisobenzofuran-1(3H)-one series for their in vitro HpIMPDH and human IMPDH2 inhibition. A total of 12 compounds (hits) demonstrated ≥70% HpIMPDH inhibition at 10 μM concentration; none of the hits were active against hIMPDH2. Compound 24 was found to be the most potent and selective molecule (HpIMPDH IC50 = 2.21 µM) in the series. The study reaffirmed the utility of 5-aminoisobenzofuran-1(3H)-one as a promising scaffold with great potential for further development of potent and selective HpIMPDH inhibitors. 相似文献

The present research was designed for the selective synthesis of novel bi-heterocyclic acetamides, 9a-n, and their tyrosinase inhibition to overwhelm the problem of melanogenesis. The structures of newly synthesized compounds were confirmed by spectral techniques such as 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and EI-MS along with elemental analysis. The inhibitory effects of these bi-heterocyclic acetamides (9a-n) were evaluated against tyrosinase and all these molecules were recognized as potent inhibitors relative to the standard used. The Kinetics mechanism was analyzed by Lineweaver-Burk plots which explored that compound, 9h, inhibited tyrosinase competitively by forming an enzyme-inhibitor complex. The inhibition constants Ki calculated from Dixon plots for this compound was 0.0027 µM. The computational study was coherent with the experimental records and these ligands exhibited good binding energy values (kcal/mol). The hemolytic analysis revealed their mild cytotoxicity towards red blood cell membranes and hence, these molecules can be pondered as nontoxic medicinal scaffolds for skin pigmentation and related disorders. 相似文献

A new series of nonquaternary conjugates for reactivation of both nerve agents and pesticides inhibited hAChE were described in this paper. It was found that substituted salicylaldehydes conjugated to aminobenzamide through piperidine would produce efficient reactivators for sarin, VX and tabun inhibited hAChE, such as L6M1R3, L6M1R5 to L6M1R7, L4M1R3 and L4M1R5 to L4M1R7. The in vitro reactivation experiment for pesticides inhibited hAChE of these new synthesized oximes were conducted for the first time. Despite they were less efficient than obidoxime, some of them were highlighted as equal or more efficient reactivators in comparison to 2-PAM. It was found that introduction of peripheral site ligands could increase oximes’ binding affinity for inhibited hAChE in most cases, which resulted in greater reactivation ability. 相似文献

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most prevalent disease of old age leading to dementia. Complex AD pathogenesis involves multiple factors viz. amyloid plaque formation, neurofibrillary tangles and inflammation. Herein we report of a new series of quinoxaline-bisthiazoles as multitarget-directed ligands (MTDLs) targeting BACE-1 and inflammation concurrently. Virtual screening of a library of novel quinoxaline-bisthiazoles was performed by docking studies. The most active molecules from the docking library were taken up for synthesis and characterized by spectral data. Compounds 8a-8n showed BACE-1 inhibition in micro molar range. One of the compounds, 8n showed BACE-1 inhibition at IC50 of 3 ± 0.07 µM. Rat paw edema inhibition in acute and chronic models of inflammation were obtained at 69 ± 0.45% and 55 ± 0.7%, respectively. Compound 8n also showed noteworthy results in AlCl3 induced AD model. The treated rats exhibited excellent antiamnesic, antiamyloid, antioxidant, and neuroprotective properties. Behavioural parameters suggested improved cognitive functions which further validates the testimony of present study. Moreover, compound 8n was found to have inherent gastrointestinal safety. This new string of quinoxaline-bisthiazoles were identified as effective lead for the generation of potent MTDLs and compound 8n was found to showcase qualities to tackle AD pathogenesis. 相似文献

We previously showed that classical 6-substituted pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine antifolates bind to folate receptor (FR) α and the target purine biosynthetic enzyme glycinamide ribonucleotide formyltransferase (GARFTase) with different cis and trans conformations. In this study, we designed novel analogs of this series with an amide moiety in the bridge region that can adopt both the cis and trans lowest energy conformations. This provides entropic benefit, by restricting the number of side-chain conformations of the unbound ligand to those most likely to promote binding to FRα and the target enzyme required for antitumor activity. NMR of the most active compound 7 showed both cis and trans amide bridge conformations in ~1:1 ratio. The bridge amide group in the best docked poses of 7 in the crystal structures of FRα and GARFTase adopted both cis and trans conformations, with the lowest energy conformations predicted by Maestro and evidenced by NMR within 1 kcal/mol. Compound 7 showed ~3-fold increased inhibition of FRα-expressing cells over its non-restricted parent analog 1 and was selectively internalized by FRα over the reduced folate carrier (RFC), resulting in significant in vitro antitumor activity toward FRα-expressing KB human tumor cells. Antitumor activity of 7 was abolished by treating cells with adenosine but was incompletely protected by 5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide (AICA) at higher drug concentrations, suggesting GARFTase and AICA ribonucleotide formyltransferase (AICARFTase) in de novo purine biosynthesis as the likely intracellular targets. GARFTase inhibition by compound 7 was confirmed by an in situ cell-based activity assay. Our results identify a “first-in-class” classical antifolate with a novel amide linkage between the scaffold and the side chain aryl L-glutamate that affords exclusive selectivity for transport via FRα over RFC and antitumor activity resulting from inhibition of GARFTase and likely AICARFTase. Compound 7 offers significant advantages over clinically used inhibitors of this class that are transported by the ubiquitous RFC, resulting in dose-limiting toxicities. 相似文献

Protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B) has recently been identified as a potential target of Norathyriol. Unfortunately, Norathyriol is not a potent PTP1B inhibitor, which somewhat hinders its further application. Based on the fact that no study on the relationship of chemical structure and PTP1B inhibitory activity of Norathyriol has been reported so far, we attempted to perform structural optimization so as to improve the potency for PTP1B. Via structure-based drug design (SBDD), a rational strategy based on the binding mode of Norathyriol to PTP1B, we designed 26 derivatives with substitutions at the four phenolic hydroxyl groups of Norathyriol. By chemical synthesis and in vitro bioassay, we identified seven PTP1B inhibitors that were more potent than Norathyriol, of which XWJ24 showed the highest potency (IC50: 0.6 μM). We also found out that XWJ24 was a competitive inhibitor and showed the 4.5-fold selectivity over its close homolog, TC-PTP. Through molecular docking of XWJ24 against PTP1B, we highlighted the essential role of its hydrogen bond with Asp181 for PTP1B inhibition and identified a potential halogen bond with Asp48 that was not observed for Norathyriol. The current data indicate that our SBDD strategy is effective to discover potent PTP1B-targeted Norathyriol derivatives, and XWJ24 is a promising lead compound for further development. 相似文献

Leukocyte transendothelial migration is one of the most important step in launching an inflammatory immune response and chronic inflammation can lead to devastating diseases. Leukocyte migration inhibitors are considered as promising and potentially effective therapeutic agents to treat inflammatory and auto-immune disorders. In this study, based on previous trioxotetrahydropyrimidin based integrin inhibitors that suboptimally blocked leukocyte adhesion, twelve molecules with a modified scaffold were designed, synthesized, and tested in vitro for their capacity to block the transendothelial migration of immune cells. One of the molecules, namely, methyl 4-((2-(tert-butyl)-6-((2,4,6-trioxotetrahydropyrimidin-5(2H)-ylidene) methyl) phenoxy) methyl) benzoate, (compound 12), completely blocked leukocyte transendothelial migration, without any toxic effects on immune or endothelial cells (IC50 = 2.4 µM). In vivo, compound 12 exhibited significant therapeutic effects in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD)/Crohn’s disease, multiple sclerosis, fatty liver disease, and rheumatoid arthritis models. A detailed acute and chronic toxicity profile of the lead compound in vivo did not reveal any toxic effects. Such a type of molecule might therefore provide a unique starting point for designing a novel class of leukocyte transmigration blocking agents with broad therapeutic applications in inflammatory and auto-immune pathologies. 相似文献

Isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) is one of the key enzymes in the tricarboxylic acid cycle, and IDH mutations have been associated with many cancers, including glioblastoma, sarcoma, acute myeloid leukemia, etc. Three natural steroids 1–3 from Ganoderma sinense, a unique and rare edible-medicinal fungi in China, were found as potential IDH1 inhibitors by virtual ligand screening method. Among the three compounds, 3 showed the highest binding affinity to IDH1 with significant calculated binding free energy. Enzymatic kinetics demonstrated that 3 inhibited mutant enzyme in a noncompetitive manner. The half effective concentration of 3 for reducing the concentration of D-2HG in HT1080 cells was 35.97 μM. The levels of histone H3K9me3 methylation in HT1080 cells were reduced by treating with 3. Furthermore, knockdown of mutant IDH1 in HT1080 cells decreased the anti-proliferative sensitivity to 3. In short, our findings highlight that compound 3 may have clinical potential in tumor therapies as an effective inhibitor of mutant IDH1. 相似文献

Beside other pharmaceutical benefits, flavonoids are known for their potent α-glucosidase inhibition. In the present study, we investigated α-glucosidase inhibitory effects of structurally related 11 flavonols, among which quercetin-3-O-(3″-O-galloyl)-β-galactopyranoside (8) and quercetin 3-O-(6″-O-galloyl)-β-glucopyranoside (9) showed significant inhibition compared to the positive control, acarbose, with IC50 values of 0.97 ± 0.02 and 1.35 ± 0.06 µM, respectively. It was found that while sugar substitution to C3-OH of C ring reduced the α-glucosidase inhibitory effect, galloyl substitution to these sugar units increased it. An enzyme kinetics analysis revealed that 7 was competitive, whereas 1, 2, 8, and 9 were uncompetitive inhibitors. In the light of these findings, we performed molecular docking studies to predict their inhibition mechanisms at atomic level. 相似文献

A series of 2-acetylphenol-donepezil hybrids was designed and synthesized based on multi-target-directed ligands strategy. The biological activities were evaluated by AChE/BChE inhibition and MAO-A/MAO-B inhibition. The results revealed that the tertiary amines and methylene chain length significantly affected the eeAChE inhibitory potency, in particular, compound TM-14 showed the best eeAChE inhibitory activity with IC50 value of 2.9 μM, in addition, both kinetic analysis of AChE inhibition and docking study displayed that TM-14 could simultaneously bind to the catalytic active site and peripheral anionic site of AChE. Moreover, compound TM-14 was a selective metal chelator and could form 1:1 TM-14-Cu2+ complex. The structure-active-relationship also indicated that the O-alkylamine fragment remarkably decreased hMAO-B inhibitory activity, compound TM-2 exhibited potent hMAO-B inhibitory activity (IC50 = 6.8 μM), which was supported by the molecular docking study. More interestingly, compounds TM-14 and TM-2 could cross the blood-brain barrier in vitro. Therefore, the structure-active-relationship of 2-acetylphenol-donepezil hybrids could encourage the development of multifunction agents with selective AChE inhibition or selective MAO-B inhibition for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. 相似文献

Meagre and suboptimal therapeutic response along with the side effect profile associated with the existing anticancer therapy have necessitated the development of new therapeutic modalities to curb this disease. Bearing in mind the current scenario, a series of 1,2,3-triazole linked 3-(1,3-diphenyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)acrylates was synthesized following a multi-step reaction scheme. Initial screening for anticancer potential was done by in vitro sulforhodamine B assay against four human cancer cell lines- MCF-7 (breast), A549 (Lung) and HCT-116 and HT-29 (Colon). On evaluation, several compounds showed promising growth inhibition against all the cell lines, particularly compounds 6e, 6f and 6n. Among them, compound 6f displayed IC50 values of 1.962, 3.597, 1.764 and 4.496 µM against A549, HCT-116, MCF-7 and HT-29 cell lines respectively. Furthermore, the apoptosis inducing potential of the compounds was determined by Hoechst staining and DNA fragmentation assay. Colony formation inhibition assay was also carried out to determine the long term cytotoxic potential of the molecules. Moreover, compounds 6e, 6f and 6n were also evaluated for anti-inflammatory activity by protein albumin denaturation assay and red blood cell membrane stabilizing assay. 相似文献

The bromodomain and extraterminal (BET) family of proteins play a crucial role in promoting gene expression of critical oncogenes. Novel BET bromodomain inhibitors with excellent potency, drug metabolism and pharmacokinetics (DMPK) properties were in strong need for development. We reported a series of potential BET inhibitors through incorporation of imidazole into pyridine scaffold. Among them, a novel BET inhibitor with 7-methylimidazo[1,5-a]pyrazin-8(7H)-one core, compound 28, was considered to be the most promising for in-depth study. Compound 28 exhibited excellent BRD4-inhibitory activity with IC50 value of 33 nM and anti-proliferation potency with IC50 value of 110 nM in HL-60 (human promyelocytic leukemia) cancer cell lines. Western Blot indicated that compound 28 can effectively trigger apoptosis in BxPc3 cells by modulating the intrinsic apoptotic pathway. In conclusion, these results suggested that compound 28 has merely potential for leukemia treatment. 相似文献

Lambertellin (1) and ergosta-5,7,22-trien-3-ol (2) were isolated from the solid rice fermentation of the plant pathogenic fungus Pycnoporus sanguineus MUCL 51321. Their structures were elucidated using comprehensive spectroscopic methods. The isolated compounds were tested on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated RAW 264.7 macrophage cells. Lambertellin (1) exhibited promising inhibitory activity against nitric oxide (NO) production with IC50 value of 3.19 µM, and it significantly inhibited the expression of inducible NO synthase (iNOS) and cyclooxygenase 2 (COX-2). Lambertellin (1) also decreased the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-6 and IL-1β. The study of the mechanistic pathways revealed that lambertellin (1) exerts its anti-inflammatory effect in LPS-stimulated RAW 264.7 macrophage cells by modulating the activation of the mitogen activated protein kinase (MAPK) and nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) signaling pathways. Therefore, lambertellin (1) could be a promising lead compound for the development of new anti-inflammatory drugs. 相似文献

P-glycoprotein (P-gp)-mediated multidrug resistance (MDR) is a major impediment for clinical cancer therapy. 19 novel aromatic amides with triazole-core as MDR reversal agents were designed and synthesized via click chemistry to reverse MDR. Among them, compound 42 was identified as the most promising candidate with high potency (EC50 = 78.1 ± 5.4 nM), low cytotoxity (SI > 1282) and persistent duration in reversing doxorubicin (DOX) resistance in K562/A02 cells. 42 also enhanced the potency of other P-gp associated cytotoxic agents with different structures. In further study, remarkably increased intracellular accumulation of Rh123 and DOX in K562/A02 cells was achieved by compound 42, while CYP3A4 activity had no change by compound 42. These results indicate that compound 42 as a relatively safe modulator of P-gp-mediated MDR has good potential for further development. 相似文献

A set of 19 oxadiazolone (OX) derivatives have been investigated for their antimycobacterial activity against two pathogenic slow-growing mycobacteria, Mycobacterium marinum and Mycobacterium bovis BCG, and the avirulent Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. tb) mc26230. The encouraging minimal inhibitory concentrations (MIC) values obtained prompted us to test them against virulent M. tb H37Rv growth either in broth medium or inside macrophages. The OX compounds displayed a diversity of action and were found to act either on extracellular M. tb growth only with moderated MIC50, or both intracellularly on infected macrophages as well as extracellularly on bacterial growth. Of interest, all OX derivatives exhibited very low toxicity towards host macrophages. Among the six potential OXs identified, HPOX, a selective inhibitor of extracellular M. tb growth, was selected and further used in a competitive labelling/enrichment assay against the activity-based probe Desthiobiotin-FP, in order to identify its putative target(s). This approach, combined with mass spectrometry, identified 18 potential candidates, all being serine or cysteine enzymes involved in M. tb lipid metabolism and/or in cell wall biosynthesis. Among them, Ag85A, CaeA, TesA, KasA and MetA have been reported as essential for in vitro growth of M. tb and/or its survival and persistence inside macrophages. Overall, our findings support the assumption that OX derivatives may represent a novel class of multi-target inhibitors leading to the arrest of M. tb growth through a cumulative inhibition of a large number of Ser- and Cys-containing enzymes involved in various important physiological processes. 相似文献

Two new diastereomeric lignan amides (4 and 5) serving as dimeric caffeic acid-l-DOPA hybrids were synthesized. The synthesis involved the FeCl3-mediated phenol oxidative coupling of methyl caffeate to afford trans-diester 1a as a mixture of enantiomers, protection of the catechol units, regioselective saponification, coupling with a suitably protected l-DOPA derivative, separation of the two diastereomers thus obtained by flash column chromatography and finally global chemoselective deprotection of the catechol units. The effect of hybrids 4 and 5 and related compounds on the proliferation of two breast cancer cell lines with different metastatic potential and estrogen receptor status (MDA-MB-231 and MCF-7) and of one epithelial lung cancer cell line, namely A-549, was evaluated for concentrations ranging from 1 to 256 μM and periods of treatment of 24, 48 and 72 h. Both hybrids showed interesting and almost equipotent antiproliferative activities (IC50 64–70 μM) for the MDA-MB-231 cell line after 24–48 h of treatment, but they were more selective and much more potent (IC50 4–16 μM) for the MCF-7 cells after 48 h of treatment. The highest activity for both hybrids and both breast cancer lines was observed after 72 h of treatment (IC50 1–2 μM), probably as the result of slow hydrolysis of their methyl ester functions. 相似文献

Cholinergic hypothesis of Alzheimer’s disease has been advocated as an essential tool in the last couple of decades for the drug development. Here in, we report de novo fragment growing strategy for the design of novel 3,5-diarylpyrazoles and hit optimization of spiropyrazoline derivatives as acetyl cholinesterase inhibitors. Both type of scaffolds numbering forty compounds were synthesized and evaluated for their potencies against AChE, BuChE and PAMPA. Introduction of lipophilic cyclohexane ring in 3,5-diarylpyrazole analogs led to spiropyrazoline derivatives, which facilitated and improved the potencies. Compound 44 (AChE = 1.937 ± 0.066 µM; BuChE = 1.166 ± 0.088 µM; hAChE = 1.758 ± 0.095 µM; Pe = 9.491 ± 0.34 × 10−6 cm s1) showed positive results, which on further optimization led to the development of compound 67 (AChE = 0.464 ± 0.166 µM; BuChE = 0.754 ± 0.121 µM; hAChE = 0.472 ± 0.042 µM; Pe = 13.92 ± 0.022 × 10−6 cm s1). Compounds 44 and 67 produced significant displacement of propidium iodide from the peripheral anionic site (PAS) of AChE. They were found to be safer to MC65 cells and decreased metal induced Aβ1-42 aggregation. Further, in-vivo behavioral studies, on scopolamine induced amnesia model, the compounds resulted in better percentage spontaneous alternation scores and were safe, had no influence on locomotion in tested animal groups at dose of 3 mg/kg. Early pharmacokinetic assessment of optimized hit molecules was supportive for further drug development. 相似文献
