- Antiproliferative and antibacterial activity of some glutarimide derivatives
-
Antiproliferative and antibacterial activities of nine glutarimide derivatives (1–9) were reported. Cytotoxicity of compounds was tested toward three human cancer cell lines, HeLa, K562 and MDA-MB-453 by MTT assay. Compound 7 (2-benzyl-2-azaspiro[5.11]heptadecane-1,3,7-trione), containing 12-membered ketone ring, was found to be the most potent toward all tested cell lines (IC50 = 9–27 μM). Preliminary screening of antibacterial activity by a disk diffusion method showed that Gram-positive bacteria were more susceptible to the tested compounds than Gram-negative bacteria. Minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) determined by a broth microdilution method confirmed that compounds 1, 2, 4, 6–8 and 9 inhibited the growth of all tested Gram-positive and some of the Gram-negative bacteria. The best antibacterial potential was achieved with compound 9 (ethyl 4-(1-benzyl-2,6-dioxopiperidin-3-yl)butanoate) against Bacillus cereus (MIC 0.625 mg/mL; 1.97 × 10?3mol/L). Distinction between more and less active/inactive compounds was assessed from the pharmacophoric patterns obtained by molecular interaction fields.

- A possible improvement for structure-based drug design illustrated by the discovery of a Tat HIV-1 inhibitor
-
The HIV-1 Tat protein is a promising target for AIDS therapy, due to its extra-cellular roles against the immune system. From the 2D-NMR structure of Tat, we have designed molecules, called TDS, able to bind to Tat and inhibit HIV-1 replication in vitro. This new family of antivirals is composed of a triphenylene aromatic ring substituted with at least one carbon chain bearing a succinimide group. These ligands are prepared from triphenylene or 2,6,10-trimethylphenylene in 3-6 steps depending on the target molecule.

- Computer-aided identification of new histone deacetylase 6 selective inhibitor with anti-sepsis activity
-
Histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors have been recognized as promising approaches to the treatment of various human diseases including cancer, inflammation, neurodegenerative diseases, and metabolic disorders. Several pan-HDAC inhibitors are currently approved only as anticancer drugs. Interestingly, SAHA (vorinostat), one of clinically available pan-HDAC inhibitors, shows an anti-inflammatory effect at concentrations lower than those required for inhibition of tumor cell growth. It was also reported that HDAC6 selective inhibitor tubastatin A has anti-inflammatory and anti-rheumatic effect. In our efforts to develop novel HDAC inhibitors, we rationally designed various HDAC inhibitors based on the structures of two hit compounds identified by virtual screening of chemical database. Among them, 9a ((E)-N-hydroxy-4-(2-styrylthiazol-4-yl)butanamide) was identified as a HDAC6 selective inhibitor (IC50 values of 0.199 μM for HDAC6 versus 13.8 μM for HDAC1), and it did not show significant cytotoxicity against HeLa cells. In vivo biological evaluation of 9a was conducted on a lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced mouse model of sepsis. The compound 9a significantly improved 40% survival rate (P = 0.0483), and suppressed the LPS-induced increase of TNF-α and IL-6 mRNA expression in the liver of mice. Our study identified novel HDAC6 selective inhibitor 9a, which may serve as a potential lead for the development of anti-inflammatory or anti-sepsis agents.

- Synthesis of 10,11-dihydroleukotriene B4 metabolites via a nickel- catalyzed coupling reaction of cis-bromides and trans-alkenyl borates
-
Synthesis of 10,11-dihydro-, 10,11,14,15-tetrahydro-, and 10,11-dihydro- 12-oxoleukotriene B4 compounds (2, 4, 5) was accomplished stereoselectively by using the nickel-catalyzed coupling reaction illustrated in Scheme 1. The C(1)-C(7) fragments, TBS ether 10a for 2 and 4 and ethyoxyethyl (EE) ether 10b for 5, were prepared in enantiomerically pure forms (>99% ee) by a modified literature procedure (ref 11a). On the other hand, boronate esters 11a and 11b, which correspond to the C(8)-C(20) parts of 2 and 4, respectively, were synthesized from (R)-epichlorohydrin of 99% ee. Briefly, 18 was converted into acetylenes 24 and 32 through epoxide ring-opening with LiC≡CC5H11/BF3·OEt2 or C7H15MgBr/CuCN. Hydroboration of these acetylenes with (+)-(Ipc)2BH followed by reaction with MeCHO afforded the corresponding diethyl boronates, which upon ligand exchange with Me2C(CH2OH)2 furnished boronate esters 11a and 11b in 75% and 77% yields, respectively. In a similar manner, racemic boronate ester rac-11a, an intermediate for synthesis of 5, was prepared from racemic epichlorohydrin. For synthesis of 2, borate 25 was generated from 11a (1.5 equiv) and MeLi (1.6 equiv). Without isolation, 25 was submitted to reaction with 10a (1 equiv) in the presence of a Ni(0) species at room temperature overnight to afford 26, which upon treatment with TBAF furnished 2 in 64% yield from 10a. Similarly, 11b and 10a furnished 4 in good yield. To synthesize 5, rac-11a and EE ether 10b were joined by the coupling reaction to produce 39, which was transformed into 40 by desilylation with TBAF. After hydrolysis of 40, oxidation with PDC followed by deprotection of the EE group furnished 5 in 36% yield from 40. In addition, 2 was converted into amide 3 in 92% yield.

- Neutrophil-Selective Fluorescent Probe Development through Metabolism-Oriented Live-Cell Distinction
-
Human neutrophils are the most abundant leukocytes and have been considered as the first line of defence in the innate immune system. Selective imaging of live neutrophils will facilitate the in situ study of neutrophils in infection or inflammation events as well as clinical diagnosis. However, small-molecule-based probes for the discrimination of live neutrophils among different granulocytes in human blood have yet to be reported. Herein, we report the first fluorescent probe NeutropG for the specific distinction and imaging of active neutrophils. The selective staining mechanism of NeutropG is elucidated as metabolism-oriented live-cell distinction (MOLD) through lipid droplet biogenesis with the help of ACSL and DGAT. Finally, NeutropG is applied to accurately quantify neutrophil levels in fresh blood samples by showing a high correlation with the current clinical method.

- Molecularly Imprinted Polymers with Enhanced Selectivity Based on 4-(Aminomethyl)pyridine-Functionalized Poly(2-oxazoline)s for Detecting Hazardous Herbicide Contaminants
-
The detection of hazardous compounds is of importance to control (drinking) water quality. Here, we report the development of poly(2-oxazoline)-based molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) for the detection of 2,4,5-trichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4,5-T). In view of enhanced selectivity of the MIPs, it was hypothesized that incorporation of pyridine groups would lead to stronger interactions with 2,4,5-T. The synthesis of 4-(aminomethyl)pyridine (4-AMP)-functionalized poly(2-methoxycarbonylpropyl-2-oxazoline)s with various degrees of modification was, therefore, investigated via stoichiometric and kinetic control over the functionalization degree. The molecular imprinting of 2,4,5-T is performed by direct amidation of the methyl ester side chains with diethylenetriamine. The experimental data of 2,4,5-T adsorption were interpreted with various models to quantify the adsorption thermodynamics and kinetics. The best fit was obtained for a single-site Langmuir model, indicating uniform binding site energies. A further investigation shows that the maximum adsorption capacity is reached at low 4-AMP modification degrees, whereas greater adsorption energies and higher selectivities are observed for higher 4-AMP modification degrees. Finally, the developed 4-AMP-modified MIP adsorbents were successfully used for quantification of 2,4,5-T by direct analysis with ambient mass spectrometry. In comparison with the pure analyte solution, the detection limits decreased by three orders of magnitude.

- New compounds for a good old class: Synthesis of two Β-lactam bearing cephalosporins and their evaluation with a multidisciplinary approach
-
Antimicrobial resistance is spreading massively in the world and is becoming one of the main health threats of the 21st century. One of the possible strategies to overcome this problem is to modify the known classes of antibiotics in a rational way, with the aim of tuning their efficacy. In this paper, we present the synthesis and the evaluation of the biological activity of a series of two β-lactam bearing cephalosporin derivatives, in which an additional isolated azetidinone ring, bearing different substituents, is joined to the classical cephalosporanic nucleus by a chain of variable length. A computational approach has been also applied in order to predict the molecular interactions between some representative derivatives and selected penicillin-binding proteins, the natural targets of β-lactam antibiotics. All these derivatives are active against Gram-positive bacteria, with MIC100 comparable or even better than that of the reference antibiotic ceftriaxone, and show no or very low cytotoxic activity on different cell lines. Overall, these molecules appear to be able to exert their activity in particular against microorganisms belonging to some of the species more involved in the development of multidrug resistance.

- Design, synthesis and biological evaluation of novel indazole-based derivatives as potent HDAC inhibitors via fragment-based virtual screening
-
Based on fragment-based virtual screening and bioisoterism strategies, novel indazole and pyrazolo[3,4-b] pyridine derivatives as HDACs inhibitors were designed, synthesized and evaluated. Most of these compounds displayed good to excellent inhibitory activities against HDACs, especially compounds 15k and 15m were identified as potent inhibitors of HDAC1 (IC50 = 2.7 nM and IC50 = 3.1 nM), HDAC2 (IC50 = 4.2 nM and IC50 = 3.6 nM) and HDAC8 (IC50 = 3.6 nM and IC50 = 3.3 nM). Further anti-proliferation assays revealed that compounds 15k and 15m showed better anti-proliferative activities against HCT-116 and HeLa cells than positive control SAHA. The western blot analysis results indicated that compounds 15k and 15m noticeably up-regulated the level of acetylated α-tubulin and histone H3. In addition, the two compounds 15k and 15m could arrest cell cycle in G2/M phase and promote cell apoptosis, which was similar as the reference compound SAHA. Through the molecular docking and dynamic studies, the potent HDAC inhibitory activities mainly caused by van der Waals and electrostatic interactions with the HDACs.

- Optimization of gefitinib analogues with potent anticancer activity
-
The interactions of gefitinib (Iressa) in EGFR are hydrogen bonding and van der Waals forces through quinazoline and aniline rings. However the morpholino group of gefitinib is poorly ordered due to its weak electron density. A series of novel piperazino analogues of gefitinib where morpholino group substituted with various piperazino groups were designed and synthesized. Most of them indicated significant anti-cancer activities against human cancer cell lines. In particular, compounds 52-54 showed excellent potency against cancer cells. Convergent synthetic approach has been developed for the synthesis of gefitinib intermediate which can lead to gefitinib as well as numerous analogues.

Recently, the structure of BAY 58-2667 bound to the Nostoc sp. H-NOX domain was published. On the basis of this structural information, we designed BAY 58-2667 derivatives and tested their effects on soluble guanylyl cyclase (sGC) activity. Derivative 20 activated sGC 4.8-fold more than BAY 58-2667. Co-crystallization of 20 with the Ns H-NOX domain revealed that the increased conformational distortion at the C-terminal region of αF helix containing 110-114 residues contributes to the higher activation triggered by 20.

- Discovery of LFF571: An investigational agent for Clostridium difficile infection
-
Clostridium difficile (C. difficile) is a Gram positive, anaerobic bacterium that infects the lumen of the large intestine and produces toxins. This results in a range of syndromes from mild diarrhea to severe toxic megacolon and death. Alarmingly, the prevalence and severity of C. difficile infection are increasing; thus, associated morbidity and mortality rates are rising. 4-Aminothiazolyl analogues of the antibiotic natural product GE2270 A (1) were designed, synthesized, and optimized for the treatment of C. difficile infection. The medicinal chemistry effort focused on enhancing aqueous solubility relative to that of the natural product and previous development candidates (2, 3) and improving antibacterial activity. Structure-activity relationships, cocrystallographic interactions, pharmacokinetics, and efficacy in animal models of infection were characterized. These studies identified a series of dicarboxylic acid derivatives, which enhanced solubility/efficacy profile by several orders of magnitude compared to previously studied compounds and led to the selection of LFF571 (4) as an investigational new drug for treating C. difficile infection.

- Structure-activity relationships of α-ketooxazole inhibitors of fatty acid amide hydrolase
-
A systematic study of the structure-activity relationships of 2b (OL-135), a potent inhibitor of fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH), is detailed targeting the C2 acyl side chain. A series of aryl replacements or substituents for the terminal phenyl group provided effective inhibitors (e.g., 5c, aryl = 1-napthyl, K, - 2.6 nM), with 5hh (aryl -3-ClPh, Ki = 900 pM) being 5-fold more potent than 2b. Conformationally restricted C2 side chains were examined, and many provided exceptionally potent inhibitors, of which 11j (ethylbiphenyl side chain) was established to be a 750 pM inhibitor. A systematic series of heteroatoms (O, NMe, S), electron-withdrawing groups (SO, SO2), and amides positioned within and hydroxyl substitutions on the linking side chain were investigated, which typically led to a loss in potency. The most tolerant positions provided effective inhibitors (12p, 6-position S, Ki = 3 nM, or 13d, 2-position OH, Ki = 8 nM) comparable in potency to 2b. Proteome-wide screening of selected inhibitors from the systematic series of >100 candidates prepared revealed that they are selective for FAAH over all other mammalian serine proteases.

-
1,1-Dicarbonyl- (ester, ketone, lactone) substituted alkenes are prepared from the corresponding saturated 1-phenylsulfinyl derivatives.These are formed from precursor sulfides, which can be efficiently prepared either by oxidation of β-hydroxy-α-phenylsulfenylcarbonyl compounds or direct acylation of α-phenylsulfenyl enolate anions with acid chlorides.Some of the title compounds can be isolated and then reacted while others are generated and reacted in situ in a Diels-Alder fashion with cyclopentadiene.Endo-exo selectivities are discussed.
