- Possible anticancer agents: synthesis, pharmacological activity, and molecular modeling studies on some 5-N -Substituted-2-N-(substituted benzenesulphonyl)-L(+)Glutamines
-
On the basis of our earlier work, fortyone 5-N-substituted-2N-(substituted benzenesulphonyl)-L(+)glutamines were synthesized and screened for cancer cell inhibitory activity. The best active compounds showed 91% tumor cell inhibition, whereas other three compounds showed more than 80% inhibition. Two-dimensional quantitative structure–activity relationship modeling and three-dimensional quantitative structure–activity relationship k-nearest neighbor molecular field analysis studies were done to get an insight into structural requirements toward further improved anticancer activity. Considering the fact that these compounds are competitive inhibitors of glutaminase, a molecular docking study followed by molecular dynamic simulation analysis were performed. The work may help to develop new anticancer agents.

The synthesis of a series of five deuterium labeled phenethylamine derivatives, 4-bromo-2,5-[2H6]-dimethoxyphenethylamine (2C-B), 4-chloro-2,5-[2H6]-dimethoxyphenethylamine (2C-C), 2,5-[2H6]-dimethoxy-4-iodophenethylamine (2C-I), 2,5-[2H6]-dimethoxy-4-ethylthiophenethylamine (2C-T-2) and 2,5-[2H6]-dimethoxy-4-n-propylthiophenethylamine (2C-T-7) from 1,4-[2H6]-dimethoxybenzene is described. The isotopically labeled compounds are used as internal standards in gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) assays. Copyright

- Sulfur-substituted α-alkyl phenethylamines as selective and reversible MAO-A inhibitors: Biological activities, CoMFA analysis, and active site modeling
-
A series of phenethylamine derivatives with various ring substituents and with or without N-methyl and/or C-α methyl or ethyl groups was synthesized and assayed for their ability reversibly to inhibit monoamine oxidase A (MAO-A) and monoamine oxidase B (MAO-B). Several compounds showed potent and selective MAO-A inhibitory activity (IC50 in the submicromolar range) but none showed appreciable activity toward MAO-B. A three-dimensional quantitative structure-activity relationship study for MAO-A inhibition was performed on the series using comparative molecular field analysis (CoMFA). The resulting model gave a cross-validated q2 of 0.72 and showed that in this series of compounds steric properties of the substituents were more important than electrostatic effects. Molecular modeling based on the recently published crystal structure of inhibitor-bound MAO-A provided detailed evidence for specific interactions of the ligands with the enzyme, supported by previous references and consistent with results from the CoMFA. On the basis of these results, structural determinants for selectivity of substituted amphetamines for MAO-A are discussed.
