The antitrypanosomal activity of 10 already synthesized compounds was in silico predicted as well as in vitro and in vivo explored against Trypanosoma cruzi. For the computational study, an approach based on non-stochastic linear fingerprints to the identification of potential antichagasic compounds is introduced. Molecular structures of 66 organic compounds, 28 with antitrypanosomal activity and 38 having other clinical uses, were parameterized by means of the TOMOCOMD-CARDD software. A linear classification function was derived allowing the discrimination between active and inactive compounds with a confidence of 95%. As predicted, seven compounds showed antitrypanosomal activity (%AE>70) against epimastigotic forms of T. cruzi at a concentration of 100mug/mL. After an unspecific cytotoxic assay, three compounds were evaluated against amastigote forms of the parasite. An in vivo test was carried out for one of the studied compounds. 相似文献

Cryptolepine derivatives containing alkyldiamine side-chains, 2, with potent inhibitory activity against Trypanosoma brucei brucei are reported. Compounds 2 showed improved activity and selectivity to T. b. brucei when compared to the lead compound. The most selective compound, 2k, presents a selectivity index value of 6200 and an IC(50) of 10nM against the parasite. These derivatives are also potent inhibitors of the trypanosome papain-like cysteine proteases cruzain, which could, at least in part, explain their antitrypanosomal activity. Overall, these compounds with good antitrypanosomal activity and selectivity provide an encouraging starting point for the rational design of new and effective antitrypanosomal agents. 相似文献

A new application of TOPological Sub-structural MOlecular DEsign (TOPS-MODE) was carried out in anti-inflammatory compounds using computer-aided molecular design. Two series of compounds, one containing anti-inflammatory and the other containing nonanti-inflammatory compounds were processed by a k-means cluster analysis in order to design the training and prediction sets. A linear classification function to discriminate the anti-inflammatory from the inactive compounds was developed. The model correctly and clearly classified 88% of active and 91% of inactive compounds in the training set. More specifically, the model showed a good global classification of 90%, that is, (399 cases out of 441). While in the prediction set, they showed an overall predictability of 88% and 84% for active and inactive compounds, being the global percentage of good classification of 85%. Furthermore this paper describes a fragment analysis in order to determine the contribution of several fragments towards anti-inflammatory property, also the present of halogens in the selected fragments were analyzed. It seems that the present TOPS-MODE based QSAR is the first alternate general 'in silico' technique to experimentation in anti-inflammatory discovery. 相似文献

A Markov model based QSAR is introduced for the rational selection of anticancer compounds. The model discriminates 90.3% of 226 structurally heterogeneous anticancer/non-anticancer compounds in training series. External validation series were used to validate the model; the 91.8% containing 85 compounds, not considered to fit the model, were correctly classified. The model developed is afterwards used in a simulation of a virtual search for anticancer compounds never considered either in training or in predicting series. The 87.7% of the 213 anticancer compounds used in this simulated search were correctly classified. The model also shows high values for specificity (0.89), sensitivity (0.91), and Mathews correlation coefficient (0.79). In addition, the present model compares better-to-similar with respect to other four models elsewhere reported if one takes into consideration 26 comparison parameters. Finally, we exemplify the use of the model in practice with the design of a new series of carbanucleosides. The compounds evaluated with the model were synthesized and experimentally assayed for their antitumor effects on the proliferation of murine leukemia cells (L1210/0) and human T-lymphocyte cells (CEM/0 and Molt4/C8). The more interesting activity was detected for the compound 5a with a predicted probability of 80.2% and IC(50) = 27.0, 27.2, and 29.4 microM, respectively, against the above-mentioned cellular lines. These values are comparable to those for the control compound Ara-A. 相似文献

A novel method for in silico selection of fluckicidal drugs is introduced. Two QSARs that permit us to discriminate between fasciolicide and non-fasciolicide drugs (the first) and to outline some conclusions about the possible mechanism of action of a chemical (the second) are performed. The first model correctly classified 93.85% of compounds in the training series and 89.5% of the compounds in the predicting one. This model correctly classified 87.7, 93.8, 92.2 and 93.9% of compounds in leave- n-out cross validation procedures when n takes values from 2 to until 6. The model seems to be stable in around 92% of good classification in leave- n-out cross validation analysis when n>6. The second model correctly classified 70% of non-fasciolicide compounds, 85.71% of beta-tubulin inhibitors and 100% of proton ionophores in the training set. This model recognizes as proton ionophores 100% of any nitrosalicylanilides in the predicting series. Both models have a low p-level <0.05. Finally, the experimental assay of six organic chemicals by an in vivo test permit us to carry out an assessment of the model with a fairly good 100% agreement between experiment and theoretical prediction. 相似文献

A rapid, semiautomated microdilution method was developed to measure the antitrypanosomal activity of large numbers of compounds against blood form Trypanosoma rhodesiense at 37 C in vitro. Parasites harvested from infected rats were incubated for 3 hr in microtitration plates with serial dilutions of test compounds. Inhibition of uptake of radiolabeled thymidine and l-leucine by the parasites served as indicators of antitrypanosomal activity. Repeated measurements of the activity of ethidium bromide demonstrated the sensitivity and precision of the method. Several additional antitrypanosomal drugs were tested in vitro and all except tryparsamide (a pentavalent arsenical) and suramin (a complex polyanion) were consistent with in vivo activity. Antimicrobial agents which are not effective antitrypanosomal drugs failed to show activity in vitro. Other compounds active in vitro included allopurinol and a number of aromatic diamidines, carbamodithioic acid derivatives, and 2-acetylpyridine thiosemicarbazones. This in vitro microtest system was developed as a primary screen for the selection of active compounds in a new Antitrypanosomal Drug Development Program. 相似文献

There are many of pathogen parasite species with different susceptibility profile to antiparasitic drugs. Unfortunately, almost QSAR models predict the biological activity of drugs against only one parasite species. Consequently, predicting the probability with which a drug is active against different species with a single unify model is a goal of the major importance. In so doing, we use Markov Chains theory to calculate new multi-target spectral moments to fit a QSAR model that predict by the first time a mt-QSAR model for 500 drugs tested in the literature against 16 parasite species and other 207 drugs no tested in the literature using spectral moments. The data was processed by linear discriminant analysis (LDA) classifying drugs as active or non-active against the different tested parasite species. The model correctly classifies 311 out of 358 active compounds (86.9%) and 2328 out of 2577 non-active compounds (90.3%) in training series. Overall training performance was 89.9%. Validation of the model was carried out by means of external predicting series. In these series the model classified correctly 157 out 190, 82.6% of antiparasitic compounds and 1151 out of 1277 non-active compounds (90.1%). Overall predictability performance was 89.2%. In addition we developed four types of non Linear Artificial neural networks (ANN) and we compared with the mt-QSAR model. The improved ANN model had an overall training performance was 87%. The present work report the first attempts to calculate within a unify framework probabilities of antiparasitic action of drugs against different parasite species based on spectral moment analysis. 相似文献

Malaria is one of the most deadly diseases, affecting million of people especially in developing countries. Because of the rapidly increasing threat worldwide of malaria epidemics multidrugs resistant to therapies, there is an urgent global need to discover new classes of antimalarial compounds. In an effort to overcome this problem, we have investigated the use of structure-based classification models for the 'rational' selection/identification or design/optimization of new lead antimalarials from virtual combinatorial data sets. In this sense, TOpological MOlecular COMputer Design strategy (TOMOCOMD approach) has been introduced in order to obtain two quantitative models for the discrimination of antimalarials. A collected data set containing 597 antimalarial compounds is presented as a helpful tool not only for theoretical chemist but for other researchers in this area. The validated models (including non-stochastic and stochastic indices) classify correctly more than 90% of compounds in both training and external prediction data sets. They showed high Matthews' correlation coefficients; 0.87 and 0.82 for training and 0.86 and 0.79 for test set. The TOMOCOMD-CARDD approach implemented in this work was successfully compared with two of the most useful models for antimalarials selection reported so far. Thus we expect that these two QSAR models can be used in the identification of previously un-known antimalarials compounds. 相似文献

During the course of screening to discover antitrypanosomal compounds, 24 known plant terpenes (6 sesquiterpenes, 14 sesquiterpene lactones and 4 diterpenes) were evaluated for in vitro antitrypanosomal activity against Trypanosoma brucei brucei. Among them, 22 terpenes exhibited antitrypanosomal activity. In particular, α-eudesmol, hinesol, nardosinone and 4-peroxy-1,2,4,5-tetrahydro-α-santonin all exhibited selective and potent antitrypanosomal activities in vitro. Detailed here in an in vitro antitrypanosomal properties and cytotoxicities of the 24 terpenes compared with two therapeutic antitrypanosomal drugs (eflornithine and suramin). This finding represents the first report of promising trypanocidal activity of these terpenes. Present results also provide some valuable insight with regard to structure–activity relationships and the possible mode of action of the compounds. 相似文献
