- Synthesis and anti-Plasmodium activity of benzimidazole analogues structurally related to astemizole
-
A series of compounds structurally related to astemizole were designed and synthesized with the goal of determining their anti-Plasmodium activity. Several modifications of the astemizole structure, namely the removal of the 4-fluorobenzyl and/ or 4-methoxyphenethyl moieties, substitution of the benzene ring of the benzimidazole scaffold, replacement of the fluorine atom in the 4-fluorobenzyl group, and variation of the 4-aminopiperidine moiety, were explored. In vitro evaluation of the anti-Plasmodium activity of these compounds using the ItG strain showed that astemizole and some of its structurally similar derivatives have IC50 values in the nanomolar range and exhibit toxicity towards the parasite over Chinese ovarian hamster (CHO) cells with a selectivity as high as 200. The presence of a secondary cyclic amine at position 2 and substitution with chlorine at positions 4 and 5 in the benzimidazole moiety are two modifications that resulted in potent and selective antimalarials based on astemizole.

- Mepyramine-JNJ7777120-hybrid compounds show high affinity to hH 1R, but low affinity to hH4R
-
In literature, a synergism between histamine H1 and H 4 receptor is discussed. Furthermore, it was shown, that the combined application of mepyramine, a H1 antagonist and JNJ7777120, a H 4 receptor ligand leads to a synergistic effect in the acute murine asthma model. Thus, the aim of this study was to develop new hybrid ligands, containing one H1 and one H4 pharmacophor, connected by an appropriate spacer, in order to address both, H1R and H 4R. Within this study, we synthesized nine hybrid compounds, which were pharmacologically characterized at hH1R and hH4R. The new compounds revealed (high) affinity to hH1R, but showed only low affinity to hH4R. Additionally, we performed molecular dynamic studies for some selected compounds at hH1R, in order to obtain information about the binding mode of these compounds on molecular level.

- New antihistaminic N-heterocyclic 4-piperidinamines. 1. Synthesis and antihistaminic activity of N-(4-piperidinyl)-1H-benzimidazol-2-amines
-
The synthesis of a series N-(4-piperidinyl)-1H-benzimidazol-2-amines and the preliminary evaluation of their in vitro and in vivo antihistaminic activity are described. Cyclodesulfurization of (2-aminophenyl) thioureas with mercury(II) oxide resulted in 2-aminobenzimidazole intermediates, which were monoalkylated on the endo-nitrogen atom. After deprotection of the piperideine nitrogen atom with 48% aqueous hydrobromic acid solution, the title compounds were obtained by three different methods, viz. alkylation, reductive amination, or oxirane ring-opening reactions. The in vivo antihistaminic activity was evaluated by the compound 48/80 induced lethality test in rats and histamine-induced lethality test in guinea pigs after oral and/or subcutaneous administration. The duration of action, for a selected number of compounds, was studied in the guinea pig. The phenylethyl derivatives showed the most potent antihistamine properties after oral administration in both animal species.
