The invention relates to the field of medicines, and particularly discloses a BuChE-IDO1 inhibitor as well as a preparation method and application thereof. The 7-chlorine-3-substituted benzothiophene part of sertaconazole is chemically modified, the influence of the 7-chlorine-3-substituted benzothiophene part of sertaconazole on the in-vitro inhibitory activity of AChE, BuChE and IDO1 is explored, the target compound is further optimized, and the technical problems that an existing BuChE-IDO1 inhibitor is poor in pertinence and safety are solved. What is explored is that an appropriate substituent group introduced to a 2-benzothiazole ring can form additional interaction with surrounding amino acids and heme iron, so that the binding affinity of the analogue with BuChE and IDO1 is increased, and a new idea is broadened for more efficient and targeted treatment of advanced AD diseases.

Recent advances in cholinesterase inhibitors opened new venues for the treatment of cognitive disorders like Alzheimer's disease. Certain azole antifungals like miconazole were reported to have cholinesterase inhibitory effects and hence ameliorate cognitive deficits. In this study, we tested a set of azole antifungal derivatives selected through virtual screening of an inhouse library for their acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) inhibitory effects. Compound 61 showed potent and selective AChE inhibition (IC50 = 8.77 μM). The study also yielded dual AChE/BChE inhibitors in addition to a number of potent AChE inhibitors. Enzyme kinetics assays revealed that AChE inhibitors were competitive inhibitors. All the active compounds were imidazole derivatives and the modeling study showed that imidazole at protonated state contributed greatly to the binding interactions with some key residues of AChE and BChE active site. The active derivatives had negligible cytotoxic effects on murine fibroblast viability. According to our results, compounds featuring the classical scaffold of azole antifungal drugs could hold high potential for anticholinesterase drug design.

Azole antifungals are potent inhibitors of fungal lanosterol 14α demethylase (CYP51) and have been used for eradication of systemic candidiasis clinically. Herein we report the design, synthesis, and biological evaluation of a series of 1-phenyl/1-(4-chlorophenyl)-2-(1H-imidazol-1-yl)ethanol esters. Many of these derivatives showed fungal growth inhibition at very low concentrations. Minimal inhibition concentration (MIC) value of 15 was 0.125?μg/mL against Candida albicans. Additionally, some of our compounds, such as 19 (MIC: 0.25?μg/mL), were potent against resistant C.?glabrata, a fungal strain less susceptible to some first-line antifungal drugs. We confirmed their antifungal efficacy by antibiofilm test and their safety against human monocytes by cytotoxicity assay. To rationalize their mechanism of action, we performed computational analysis utilizing molecular docking and dynamics simulations on the C.?albicans and C.?glabrata CYP51 (CACYP51 and CGCYP51) homology models we built. Leu130 and T131 emerged as possible key residues for inhibition of CGCYP51 by 19.
