Hybrid systems containing pyrazole moiety show a wide spectrum of biological activities. To access novel hybrids with pyrazole ring, in this work we synthesized twenty pyrazole-carboxylic acids and twenty pyrazole-carboxamides, using simple synthetic methods, to be used as building blocks in the development of new structures.

Sustained vascular smooth muscle hypercontractility promotes hypertension and cardiovascular disease. The etiology of hypercontractility is not completely understood. New therapeutic targets remain vitally important for drug discovery. Here we report that Pim kinases, in combination with DAPK3, regulate contractility and control hypertension. Using a co-crystal structure of lead molecule (HS38) in complex with DAPK3, a dual Pim/DAPK3 inhibitor (HS56) and selective DAPK3 inhibitors (HS94 and HS148) were developed to provide mechanistic insight into the polypharmacology of hypertension. In vitro and ex vivo studies indicated that Pim kinases directly phosphorylate smooth muscle targets and that Pim/DAPK3 inhibition, unlike selective DAPK3 inhibition, significantly reduces contractility. In vivo, HS56 decreased blood pressure in spontaneously hypertensive mice in a dose-dependent manner without affecting heart rate. These findings suggest including Pim kinase inhibition within a multi-target engagement strategy for hypertension management. HS56 represents a significant step in the development of molecularly targeted antihypertensive medications. Carlson et al. use crystal structure-guided medicinal chemistry techniques to develop a dual Pim/DAPK3 inhibitor (HS56) that reduces myosin phosphorylation and contractility in smooth muscle. Their findings reveal the contribution of Pim kinases to the pathology of hypertension, suggesting a novel multi-target engagement strategy for molecularly targeted antihypertensive medications.
Synthesis of 3H-pyrazolo[3,4-c]isoquinolines and thieno[3,2-c]isoquinolines via cascade imination/intramolecular decarboxylative coupling

A general approach for the synthesis of 3H-pyrazolo[3,4-c]isoquinolines and thieno[3,2-c]isoquinolines is described involving the implementation of a cascade imination/intramolecular decarboxylative coupling between potassium 2-amino(hetero)benzoates and 2-haloarylaldehydes. The reactions of pyrazole-based substrates require a Pd-Cu bimetallic system for superior yields whereas the thienyl-based substrates afford the products in excellent yields with a Pd-catalyst only.
