- Design, synthesis, and cytotoxic activity of novel 2H-imidazo[1,2-c]pyrazolo[3,4-e]pyrimidine derivatives
-
In this study, a series of novel 2H-imidazo [1, 2-c] pyrazolo [3, 4-e] pyrimidine derivatives were designed, synthesized, and evaluated for their cytotoxic activities. The in vitro cell growth inhibition assay of the target compounds indicated their selectivity in inhibiting the proliferation of blood tumor cells (K562, U937) and solid tumor cells (HCT116, HT-29). Compound 9b exhibited the highest antiproliferative activities against K562 (IC50 = 5.597 μM) and U937 (IC50 = 3.512 μM). Based on the flow cytometry assays, compound 9b caused obvious induction of cell apoptosis and cell arrest at the S phase. Furthermore, western blot analysis revealed that compound 9b upregulated the expression of Bax, downregulated the levels of Bcl-2, and further activated caspase-3 in K562 cells. Therefore, compound 9b may be a potential anticancer agent that deserves further investigation.

- Natural products as sources of new fungicides (V): Design and synthesis of acetophenone derivatives against phytopathogenic fungi in vitro and in vivo
-
A series of acetophenone derivatives (10a–10i, 11, 12a–12g, 13a–13g, 14a–14d and 15a–15l) were designed, synthesized and evaluated for antifungal activities in vitro and in vivo. The antifungal activities of 53 compounds were tested against several plant pathogens, and their structure–activity relationship was summarized. Compounds 10a–10f displayed better antifungal effects than two reference fungicides. Interestingly, the most potent compound 10d exhibited antifungal properties against Cytospora sp., Botrytis cinerea, Magnaporthe grisea, with IC50 values of 6.0–22.6 μg/mL, especially Cytospora sp. (IC50 = 6.0 μg/mL). In the in vivo antifungal assays, 10d displayed the significant protective efficacy of 55.3% to Botrytis cinerea and 73.1% to Cytospora sp. The findings indicated that 10d may act as a potential pesticide lead compound that merits further investigation.

- Probing the 'bipolar' nature of the carbonic anhydrase active site: Aromatic sulfonamides containing 1,3-oxazol-5-yl moiety as picomolar inhibitors of cytosolic CA I and CA II isoforms
-
Abstract A series of potent inhibitors of human carbonic anhydrase (CA) isoforms I and II has been prepared via a direct, chemoselective sulfochlorination of a range of 1,3-oxazolyl benzenes and thiophenes, followed by primary sulfonamide synthesis. The latter functionality is a known zinc-binding group (ZBG) responsible for anchoring the inhibitors to the CA's zinc metal ion. The compound's periphery as well as the overall scaffold geometry was designed to enable optimal interactions with the two distinct sides of the enzyme's active site, one of which is lined with hydrophobic residues and while the other is predominantly hydrophilic. As a result, several compounds inhibiting the therapeutically important cytosolic CA I and CA II in picomolar range have been identified. These compounds are one of the most potent CA inhibitors identified to-date. Not only the remarkable (>10 000-fold), cytosolic CA I and CA II selectivity vs. the membrane-bound CA IX and CA XII isoforms, but also the pronounced CA II/I selectivity observed in some cases, allow considering this series as a set of isoform-selective chemical biology tools and promising starting points for drug candidate development.

- Design, synthesis and biological activity evaluation of 2,5-diphenyl-1,3,4-oxadiazole derivatives as novel inhibitors of fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase
-
Fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase (FBPase), an important gluconeogenic enzyme, catalyzes the hydrolysis of fructose 1,6-bisphosphate to fructose 6-phosphate. The effort to discover new FBPase inhibitors was carried out by high-throughput screening (HTS) of a library of 56,000 lead-like compounds, and a 2,5-diphenyl-1,3,4-oxadiazole (3a, IC50 = 15.45 μM) which bearing no phosphate group was identified as a potential FBPase inhibitor for the first time. Structure-activity-relationship (SAR) research of a series of analogues obtained by modifying the substituent groups and replacing the 1,3,4-oxadiazole with several other heterocycles disclosed the key structure and substituent groups related to the binding with FBPase.
