A series of novel isoflavone analogs were designed, synthesized, and evaluated as multitarget-directed ligands for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease. In vitro evaluations revealed that some ligands had multifunctional profiles, including potent blockage of histamine 3 receptor (H3R), excellent inhibition of acetylcholinesterase (AChE), neuroprotective effects and anti-neuroinflammatory properties. Among these derivatives, compound 9b exhibited the highest ability to block H3R (IC50 = 0.27 μM) and good inhibitory activity against AChE (IC50 = 0.08 μM). Additionally, compound 9b showed obvious neuroprotective effect on SH-SY5Y by preventing copper-induced neuronal damage and potent anti-neuroinflammatory activity by inhibiting the production of inflammatory factors on BV-2 cells. A molecular modeling study revealed that 9b acts as a mixed-type inhibitor that interacts simultaneously with H3R and AChE. Moreover, in vivo data revealed that compound 9b did not cause acute toxicity in mice at doses up to 1000 mg/kg, and had desirable pharmacokinetic properties, as well as a good blood-brain barrier (BBB) permeability (log BB = 1.24 ± 0.07). Further studies demonstrated that chronic oral treatment with 9b significantly improved cognitive dysfunction in scopolamine-induced AD mice in the step-down passive avoidance test. Taken together, the present study showed that compound 9b is a promising multifunctional drug candidate for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease.

A series of didzein derivatives were synthesized and assessed for stimulation of osteoblast differentiation using primary cultures of rat calvarial osteoblasts. Data suggested that three synthetic analogs, 1c, 3a and 3c were several folds more potent than daidzein in stimulating differentiation and mineralization of osteoblasts. Further, these three compounds did not show any estrogen agonistic activity, however had mild estrogen antagonistic effect. Out of the three compounds, 3c was found to maximally increase the mineralization of bone marrow osteoprogenitor cells. Compound 3c also robustly increased the mRNA levels of osteogenic genes including bone morphogenetic protein-2 and osteocalcin in osteoblasts. Unlike daidzein, 3c did not inhibit osteoclastogenesis. Collectively, we demonstrate osteogenic activity of daidzein analogs at significantly lower concentrations than daidzein.
