- 1,2,4-Triazole-3-thione compounds with a 4-ethyl alkyl/aryl sulfide substituent are broad-spectrum metallo-β-lactamase inhibitors with re-sensitization activity
-
Metallo-β-lactamases (MBLs) are important contributors of Gram-negative bacteria resistance to β-lactam antibiotics. MBLs are highly worrying because of their carbapenemase activity, their rapid spread in major human opportunistic pathogens while no clinically useful inhibitor is available yet. In this context, we are exploring the potential of compounds based on the 1,2,4-triazole-3-thione scaffold as an original ligand of the di-zinc active sites of MBLs, and diversely substituted at its positions 4 and 5. Here, we present a new series of compounds substituted at the 4-position by a thioether-containing alkyl chain with a carboxylic and/or an aryl group at its extremity. Several compounds showed broad-spectrum inhibition with Ki values in the μM to sub-μM range against VIM-type enzymes, NDM-1 and IMP-1. The presence of the sulfur and of the aryl group was important for the inhibitory activity and the binding mode of a few compounds in VIM-2 was revealed by X-ray crystallography. Importantly, in vitro antibacterial susceptibility assays showed that several inhibitors were able to potentiate the activity of meropenem on Klebsiella pneumoniae clinical isolates producing VIM-1 or VIM-4, with a potentiation effect of up to 16-fold. Finally, a selected compound was found to only moderately inhibit the di-zinc human glyoxalase II, and several showed no or only moderate toxicity toward several human cells, thus favourably completing a promising behaviour.

- 4-Amino-1,2,4-triazole-3-thione-derived Schiff bases as metallo-β-lactamase inhibitors
-
Resistance to β-lactam antibiotics in Gram-negatives producing metallo-β-lactamases (MBLs) represents a major medical threat and there is an extremely urgent need to develop clinically useful inhibitors. We previously reported the original binding mode of 5-substituted-4-amino/H-1,2,4-triazole-3-thione compounds in the catalytic site of an MBL. Moreover, we showed that, although moderately potent, they represented a promising basis for the development of broad-spectrum MBL inhibitors. Here, we synthesized and characterized a large number of 4-amino-1,2,4-triazole-3-thione-derived Schiff bases. Compared to the previous series, the presence of an aryl moiety at position 4 afforded an average 10-fold increase in potency. Among 90 synthetic compounds, more than half inhibited at least one of the six tested MBLs (L1, VIM-4, VIM-2, NDM-1, IMP-1, CphA) with Ki values in the μM to sub-μM range. Several were broad-spectrum inhibitors, also inhibiting the most clinically relevant VIM-2 and NDM-1. Active compounds generally contained halogenated, bicyclic aryl or phenolic moieties at position 5, and one substituent among o-benzoic, 2,4-dihydroxyphenyl, p-benzyloxyphenyl or 3-(m-benzoyl)-phenyl at position 4. The crystallographic structure of VIM-2 in complex with an inhibitor showed the expected binding between the triazole-thione moiety and the dinuclear centre and also revealed a network of interactions involving Phe61, Tyr67, Trp87 and the conserved Asn233. Microbiological analysis suggested that the potentiation activity of the compounds was limited by poor outer membrane penetration or efflux. This was supported by the ability of one compound to restore the susceptibility of an NDM-1-producing E. coli clinical strain toward several β-lactams in the presence only of a sub-inhibitory concentration of colistin, a permeabilizing agent. Finally, some compounds were tested against the structurally similar di-zinc human glyoxalase II and found weaker inhibitors of the latter enzyme, thus showing a promising selectivity towards MBLs.

- Design, Synthesis, and Pharmacological Evaluation of First-in-Class Multitarget N-Acylhydrazone Derivatives as Selective HDAC6/8 and PI3Kα Inhibitors
-
Targeting histone deacetylases (HDACs) and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinases (PI3Ks) is a very promising approach for cancer treatment. This manuscript describes the design, synthesis, in vitro pharmacological profile, and molecular modeling of a novel class of N-acylhydrazone (NAH) derivatives that act as HDAC6/8 and PI3Kα dual inhibitors. The surprising selectivity for PI3Kα may be related to differences in the conformation in the active site. Cellular studies showed that these compounds act in HDAC6 inhibition and the PI3/K/AKT/mTOR pathway. The compounds that are selective for inhibition of HDAC6/8 and inhibit PI3Kα show potential for the treatment of cancer.

- Structure based discovery of novel hexokinase 2 inhibitors
-
Hexokinase 2 (HK2) is over-expressed in most of human cancers and has been proved to be a promising target for cancer therapy. In this study, based on the structure of HK2, we screened over 6 millions of compounds to obtain the lead. A total of 26 (E)-N′-(2,3,4-trihydroxybenzylidene) arylhydrazide derivatives were then designed, synthesized, and evaluated for their HK2 enzyme activity and IC50 values against two cancer cell lines. Most of the 26 target compounds showed excellently in vitro activity. Among them, compound 3j showed the strongest inhibitory effects on HK2 enzyme activity with an IC50 of 0.53 ± 0.13 μM and exhibited the most potent growth inhibition against SW480 cells with an IC50 of 7.13 ± 1.12 μM, which deserves further studies.

- Synthesis of N′-propylhydrazide analogs of hydroxamic inhibitors of histone deacetylases (HDACs) and evaluation of their impact on activities of HDACs and replication of hepatitis C virus (HCV)
-
N′-Propylhydrazide analogs of hydroxamic inhibitors of histone deacetylases (HDACs), including tubastatin A, vorinostat and belinostat, were synthesized. All prepared compounds inhibited HDAC1/2/3, but not HDAC6, except for one hydrazide analog of HDAC4/5/7 inhibitor that was completely inactive. A novel 4-substituted derivative of N′-propylbenzohydrazide with extremely high anti-HCV activity was discovered.

- Structure-Activity Relationships of Nitro-Substituted Aroylhydrazone Iron Chelators with Antioxidant and Antiproliferative Activities
-
Aroylhydrazone iron chelators such as salicylaldehyde isonicotinoyl hydrazone (SIH) protect various cells against oxidative injury and display antineoplastic activities. Previous studies have shown that a nitro-substituted hydrazone, namely, NHAPI, displayed markedly improved plasma stability, selective antitumor activity, and moderate antioxidant properties. In this study, we prepared four series of novel NHAPI derivatives and explored their iron chelation activities, anti- or pro-oxidant effects, protection against model oxidative injury in the H9c2 cell line derived from rat embryonic cardiac myoblasts, cytotoxicities to the corresponding noncancerous H9c2 cells, and antiproliferative activities against the MCF-7 human breast adenocarcinoma and HL-60 human promyelocytic leukemia cell lines. Nitro substitution had both negative and positive effects on the examined properties, and we identified new structure-activity relationships. Naphthyl and biphenyl derivatives showed selective antiproliferative action, particularly in the breast adenocarcinoma MCF-7 cell line, where they exceeded the selectivity of the parent compound NHAPI. Of particular interest is a compound prepared from 2-hydroxy-5-methyl-3-nitroacetophenone and biphenyl-4-carbohydrazide, which protected cardiomyoblasts against oxidative injury at 1.8 ± 1.2 μM with 24-fold higher selectivity than SIH. These compounds will serve as leads for further structural optimization and mechanistic studies.

- Aroylhydrazone iron chelators: Tuning antioxidant and antiproliferative properties by hydrazide modifications
-
Aroylhydrazones such as salicylaldehyde isonicotinoyl hydrazone (SIH) are tridentate iron chelators that may possess antioxidant and/or antineoplastic activities. Their main drawback, their low stability in plasma, has recently been partially overcome by exchanging the aldimine hydrogen for an unbranched alkyl group. In this study, ten analogs of methyl- and ethyl-substituted SIH derivatives with modified hydrazide scaffolds were synthesized to further explore their structure-activity relationships. Their iron-chelation efficiencies, anti- or pro-oxidant potentials, abilities to induce protection against model oxidative injury on the H9c2 cell line derived from rat embryonic cardiac tissue, cytotoxicities on the same H9c2 cells and antiproliferative activities on MCF-7 human breast adenocarcinoma and HL-60 human promyelotic leukemia cell lines were evaluated. Compounds derived from lipophilic naphthyl and biphenyl hydrazides displayed highly selective antiproliferative activities against both MCF-7 and HL-60 cell lines, and they showed markedly improved stabilities in plasma compared to SIH. Of particular interest is a hydrazone prepared from 2-hydroxypropiophenone and pyridazin-4-carbohydrazide that showed a considerable antiproliferative effect and protected cardiomyoblasts against oxidative stress with a five-fold higher selectivity compared to the parent compound SIH. Thus, this work highlighted new structure-activity relationships among antiproliferative and antioxidant aroylhydrazones and identified new lead compounds for further development.

- Development of Allosteric Hydrazide-Containing Class i Histone Deacetylase Inhibitors for Use in Acute Myeloid Leukemia
-
One of the biggest hurdles yet to be overcome for the continued improvement of histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors is finding alternative motifs equipotent to the classic and ubiquitously used hydroxamic acid. The N-hydroxyl group of this motif is highly subject to sulfation/glucoronidation-based inactivation in humans; compounds containing this motif require much higher dosing in clinic to achieve therapeutic concentrations. With the goal of developing a second generation of HDAC inhibitors lacking this hydroxamate, we designed a series of potent and selective class I HDAC inhibitors using a hydrazide motif. These inhibitors are impervious to glucuronidation and demonstrate allosteric inhibition. In vitro and ex vivo characterization of our lead analogues' efficacy, selectivity, and toxicity profiles demonstrate that they possess low nanomolar activity against models of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and are at least 100-fold more selective for AML than solid immortalized cells such as HEK293 or human peripheral blood mononuclear cells.

- Acid Chloride Synthesis by the Palladium-Catalyzed Chlorocarbonylation of Aryl Bromides
-
We report a palladium-catalyzed method to synthesize acid chlorides by the chlorocarbonylation of aryl bromides. Mechanistic studies suggest the combination of sterically encumbered PtBu3 and CO coordination to palladium can rapidly equilibrate the oxidative addition/reductive elimination of carbon-halogen bonds. This provides a useful method to assemble highly reactive acid chlorides from stable and available reagents, and can be coupled with subsequent nucleophilic reactions to generate new classes of carbonylated products. The Good, the Bad and the Bulky! By employing a sterically encumbered phosphine ligand, tri-tert-butyl phosphine, under palladium catalysis inert aryl bromides are chlorocarbonylated to create reactive acid chlorides by reversible carbon-halogen bond reductive elimination. This general platform allows for an expanded scope of the Heck carbonylation reaction to include previously incompatible nucleophiles.

- Designing and exploring active N′-[(5-nitrofuran-2-yl) methylene] substituted hydrazides against three Trypanosoma cruzi strains more prevalent in Chagas disease patients
-
Chagas disease affects around 8 million people worldwide and its treatment depends on only two nitroheterocyclic drugs, benznidazole (BZD) and nifurtimox (NFX). Both drugs have limited curative power in chronic phase of disease. Nifuroxazide (NF), a nitroheterocyclic drug, was used as lead to design a set of twenty one compounds in order to improve the anti-Trypanosoma cruzi activity. Lipinski's rules were considered in order to support drug-likeness designing. The set of N′-[(5-nitrofuran-2-yl) methylene] substituted hydrazides was assayed against three T. cruzi strains, which represent the discrete typing units more prevalent in human patients: Y (TcII), Silvio X10 cl1 (TcI), and Bug 2149 cl10 (TcV). All the derivatives, except one, showed enhanced trypanocidal activity against the three strains as compared to BZD. In the Y strain 62% of the compounds were more active than NFX. The most active compound was Ng€2-((5-nitrofuran-2-yl) methylene)biphenyl-4-carbohydrazide (C20), which showed IC50 values of 1.17 ± 0.12 μM; 3.17 ± 0.32 μM; and 1.81 ± 0.18 μ4M for Y, Silvio X10 cl1, and Bug 2149 cl10 strains, respectively. Cytotoxicity assays with human fibroblast cells have demonstrated high selectivity indices for several compounds. Exploratory data analysis indicated that primarily topological, steric/geometric, and electronic properties have contributed to the discrimination of the set of investigated compounds. The findings can be helpful to drive the designing, and subsequently, the synthesis of additional promising drugs against Chagas disease.

A library of novel 1,3,4-oxadiazole and 2-4-thiazolidinedione based bis-heterocycles 7 (a-r) has been synthesized which exhibited significant PPAR-?3 transactivation and blood glucose lowering effect comparable with the standard drugs Pioglitazone and Rosiglitazone. Compounds 7m and 7r did not cause body weight gain and were found to be free from hepatotoxic and cardiotoxic side effects. Compounds 7m and 7r increased PPAR-?3 gene expression by 2.10 and 2.00 folds, respectively in comparison to the standard drugs Pioglitazone (1.5 fold) and Rosiglitazone (1.0 fold). Therefore the compounds 7m and 7r may be considered as potential candidates for development of new antidiabetic agents.

- Discovery and mechanism study of SIRT1 activators that promote the deacetylation of fluorophore-labeled substrate
-
SIRT1 is an NAD+-dependent deacetylase, whose activators have potential therapeutic applications in age-related diseases. Here we report a new class of SIRT1 activators. The activation is dependent on the fluorophore labeled to the substrate. To elucidate the activation mechanism, we solved the crystal structure of SIRT3/ac-RHKKac-AMC complex. The structure revealed that the fluorophore blocked the H-bond formation and created a cavity between the substrate and the Rossmann fold. We built the SIRT1/ac-RHKK ac-AMC complex model based on the crystal structure. Km and Kd determinations demonstrated that the fluorophore decreased the peptide binding affinity. The binding modes of SIRT1 activators indicated that a portion of the activators interacts with the fluorophore through π-stacking, while the other portion inserts into the cavity or interacts with the Rossmann fold, thus increasing the substrate affinity. Our study provides new insights into the mechanism of SIRT1 activation and may aid the design of novel SIRT1 activators.

- Characterization of amide bond conformers for a novel heterocyclic template of N-acylhydrazone derivatives
-
Herein we describe NMR experiments and structural modifications of 4-methyl-2-phenylpyrimidine-N-acylhydrazone compounds (aryl-NAH) in order to discover if duplication of some signals in their 1H- and 13C-NMR spectra was related to a mixture of imine double bond stereoisomers (E/Z) or CO-NH bond conformers (syn and anti-periplanar). NMR data from NOEdiff, 2D-NOESY and 1H-NMR spectra at different temperatures, and also the synthesis of isopropylidene hydrazone revealed the nature of duplicated signals of a 4-methyl-2-phenylpyrimidine-N-acylhydrazone derivative as a mixture of two conformers in solution. Further we investigated the stereoelectronic influence of substituents at the ortho position on the pyrimidine ring with respect to the carbonyl group, as well as the electronic effects of pyrimidine by changing it to phenyl. The conformer equilibrium was attributed to the decoplanarization of the aromatic ring and carbonyl group (generated by an ortho-alkyl group) and/or the electron withdrawing character of the pyrimidine ring. Both effects increased the rotational barrier of the C-N amide bond, as verified by the ΔG≠ values calculated from dynamic NMR. As far as we know, it is the first description of aryl-NAH compounds presenting two CO-NH bond-related conformations.

A series of novel N-[5-(arylidene)-2-(aryl)-4-oxo-thiazolidin-3-yl]-4- biphenylcarboxamide derivatives was synthesized and evaluated for analgesic and anti-inflammatory activity. In this study, biphenyl-4-carboxylic acid hydrazide was converted to the corresponding aryl hydrazones using aryl aldehydes in the presence of catalytic amount of glacial acetic acid. The aryl hydrazones on reaction with thioglycolic acid in the presence of anhydrous zinc chloride yielded N-[2-(aryl)-4-oxo-thiazolidin-3-yl]-4-biphenylcarboxamide which further on reaction with aromatic aldehydes in the presence of anhydrous sodium acetate and glacial acetic acid furnished the title compounds. All compound exhibited anti-inflammatory activity at the dose 10 mg/kg. The structures of all these newly synthesized compounds were confirmed by their elemental analyses (C, H, N) and spectral data (IR and 1H NMR). Springer Science+Business Media, LLC 2011.

- Discovering potent inhibitors against the β-hydroxyacyl-acyl carrier protein dehydratase (FabZ) of helicobacter pylori: Structure-based design, synthesis, bioassay, and crystal structure determination
-
The discovery of HpFabZ inhibitors is now of special interest in the treatment of various gastric diseases. In this work, three series of derivatives (compounds 3, 4, and 5) were designed, synthesized, and their biological activities were investigated as potential HpFabZ inhibitors in a two phased manner. First, we designed and synthesized two series of derivatives (3a-r and 4a-u) and evaluated the enzyme-based assay against HpFabZ. Five compounds (3i-k, 3m, and 3q) showed potential inhibitory activity, with IC50 values less than 2 μM. Second, a focused combinatorial library containing 280 molecules was designed employing the LD1.0 program. Twelve compounds (5a-l) were selected and synthesized. The activity of the most potent compound 5h (IC 50) 0.86 μM) was 46 times higher than that of the hit 1. The high hit rate and the potency of the new HpFabZ inhibitors demonstrated the efficiency of the strategy for the focused library design and virtual screening.

- Discovery of 4,5-diphenyl-1,2,4-triazole derivatives as a novel class of selective antagonists for the human V(1A) receptor.
-
In the search for a novel class of selective antagonists for the human V(1A) receptor, high-throughput screening (HTS) of the Yamanouchi chemical library using CHO cells expressing the cloned human V(1A) (hV(1A)) receptor led to the discovery of 5-(4-biphenyl)-4-(2-methoxyphenyl)-3-methyl-1,2,4-triazole (3) which possessed the novel 4,5-diphenyl-1,2,4-triazole structure. Subsequent structure-activity relationships studies on a series of the 4,5-diphenyl-1,2,4-triazole derivatives related to 3 revealed that the 4,5-diphenyl-1,2,4-triazole structure played an essential role in exerting high affinity for the hV(1A) receptor and that introduction of a basic amine moiety to the methoxy part of the 4-phenyl ring was effective in the improvement of both affinity for the hV(1A) receptor and selectivity versus the hV(2) receptor. Compound 3 and the 2-(morphorino)ethoxy derivative (11b) were shown to be antagonists for the hV(1A) receptor, from their effects on AVP-induced [Ca(2+)](i) response in CHO cells expressing the hV(1A) receptor.

- Aromatic hydrazides as specific inhibitors of bovine serum amine oxidase
-
New hydrazides were synthesized in search for specific inhibitors of bovine serum amine oxidase: a series of benzoic and phenylacetic acid hydrazides containing the 1H-imidazol-1-yl or the 1H-imidazol-1-ylmethyl group as (o,m,p)-substituent in the phenyl ring; an analogous series of p-substituted phenylhydrazides with 5 or 6-membered heterocyclic ring as substituent, and a series of similar phenylpropionic hydrazides. The longer and more flexible phenylacetic hydrazides, and to a somewhat lesser extent the phenylpropionic ones, were better specific inhibitors of bovine serum amine oxidase than the benzoic hydrazides, which were also bound by the enzyme with high affinity, but at a slow rate. Derivatives with p- and m-substituents were more reactive than the o-substituted ones. The chemical nature of the substituent was less important than its position in the phenyl ring and the presence of methylene spacers. These data point to the presence of a hydrophobic site at short distance from the protein carbonyl cofactor, so that simultaneous interaction of the 2 ends of the inhibitor molecule can occur at the 2 sites. The presence of the hydrophobic site was confirmed by the capability of some molecule deprived of the hydrazidic group to act as mild inhibitors. All hydrazides were less reactive by 2-3 orders of magnitude towards pig kidney diamine oxidase and FAD-dependent monoamine oxidase from rat brain mitochondria, while the other compounds showed similar inhibition power against all proteins. The specificity for the bovine enzyme seems therefore to be related to the concerted action of the 2 moieties of the inhibitor molecule.
