- Discovery and evolution of 12N-substituted aloperine derivatives as anti-SARS-CoV-2 agents through targeting late entry stage
-
So far, there is still no specific drug against COVID-19. Taking compound 1 with anti-EBOV activity as the lead, fifty-four 12N-substituted aloperine derivatives were synthesized and evaluated for the anti-SARS-CoV-2 activities using pseudotyped virus model. Among them, 8a exhibited the most potential effects against both pseudotyped and authentic SARS-CoV-2, as well as SARS-CoV and MERS-CoV, indicating a broad-spectrum anti-coronavirus profile. The mechanism study disclosed that 8a might block a late stage of viral entry, mainly via inhibiting host cathepsin B activity rather than directly targeting cathepsin B protein. Also, 8a could significantly reduce the release of multiple inflammatory cytokines in a time- and dose-dependent manner, such as IL-6, IL-1β, IL-8 and MCP-1, the major contributors to cytokine storm. Therefore, 8a is a promising agent with the advantages of broad-spectrum anti-coronavirus and anti-cytokine effects, thus worthy of further investigation.

- 5-[2-(N-(Substituted phenyl)acetamide)]amino-1,3,4-thiadiazole-2-sulfonamides as Selective Carbonic Anhydrase II Inhibitors with Neuroprotective Effects
-
In this study, 22 novel compounds were designed and synthesized by acetamide bridge chains, among which 5 a–5 k were monosubstituted compounds, and 6 a–6 k were disubstituted. A series of biological evaluations was then carried out to determine the carbonic anhydrase inhibitory activity, neuroprotective effects and cytotoxicity of 5 a–5 k and 6 a–6 k. The results showed that some compounds could protect PC12 cells from sodium nitroprusside (SNP)-induced damage. In terms of the neuroprotection and inhibitory activity against carbonic anhydrase II, monosubstituted compounds were better than disubstituted. Compound 5 c exhibited better protective effect in PC12 cells than that of edaravone, and 5 c also showed less cytotoxicity. In addition, compound 5 c was found to be the most effective selective carbonic anhydrase II inhibitor (IC50=16.7 nM, CAI/CAII=54.3), which was similar to the inhibitory effect of acetazolamide. Moreover, the selectivity of compound 5 c was better than that of acetazolamide (IC50=12.0 nM, CAI/CAII=20.8). Molecular docking presented that the binding effect of compound 5 c with carbonic anhydrase II was superior to that of 5 c with carbonic anhydrase I and IX, which was consistent with the inhibitory results. Based on above findings, compound 5 c may be a potential candidate for selective carbonic anhydrase II inhibitor, and it had obviously neuroprotective effect and great advantages in drug safety.

In an attempt to discover potential cytotoxic agents, a series of novel (Z)-2-(3-(4-((3-benzyl-2,4-dioxothiazolidin-5-ylidene)methyl)-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazol-3-yl) phenoxy)-N-arylacetamide derivatives 11a-n were synthesized in varied steps with acceptable reaction procedures with good yields and characterized by 1H NMR, 13C NMR, IR and ESI-MS spectra. All the novel synthesized derivatives were assessed for their cytotoxic activity against human breast cell line (MCF-7) with different concentration of 0.625 μM, 1.25 μM, 2.5 μM, 5 μM and 10 μM respectively. Biological evaluation assay results were displayed in terms of percentage of cell viability reduction and IC50 values. Most of the screened derivatives demonstrated moderate to promising cytotoxic activity. Some of the derivatives, particularly compound 11d and 11n have shown promising cytotoxic activity with IC50 values 0.604 μM and 0.665 μM compared to standard drug cisplatin and compounds 11a, 11e and 11g also have shown considerable cytotoxic activity and the rest of the derivatives have shown moderate activity. Furthermore, molecular docking calculations and ADME properties of the synthesized molecules are in effective compliance with the cytotoxic evaluation results.

A series of novel 2-hydroxyphenyl substituted aminoacetamides was designed by molecular hybridization of the aminoacetamide scaffold and 2-hydroxyphenyl motif. The target compounds were synthesized and their fungicidal activities were evaluated. Some of the target compounds showed excellent antifungal activities against S. sclerotiorum and P. capsici. Significantly, compounds 5e displayed the most potent activity against S. sclerotiorum with EC50 = 2.89 μg/mL, which was lower than that of commercial chlorothalonil. The systematic studies provided strong confidence that the hydroxyl group and the carbonyl group are crucial for the fungicidal activity. Molecular docking studies suggest that SDH enzyme could be one of the potential action targets of our compounds.

Abstract: A series of 21 amide linked 1,4-disubstituted-1,2,3-triazoles were achieved via one-pot synthesis through Cu(I) catalyzed click reaction between terminal alkynes and 2-azido-N-substituted acetamides. Newly formed triazoles were characterized by various spectroscopic techniques (FT-IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR spectroscopy, and HRMS) and investigated for in vitro antitubercular evaluation against bacteria, i.e., Mycobacterium tuberculosis and antimicrobial evaluation against Bacillus subtilis, Staphylococcus epidermidis, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Candida albicans, and Aspergillus niger. Some of the synthesized triazole derivatives were found to exhibit moderate inhibitory activity against the tested antitubercular strain, whereas one compound displayed a significant inhibitory activity against most of the tested microbial strains.

- Synthesis, crystal structure and antimicrobial activity of 2-((2-(4-(1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)phenyl)quinazolin-4-yl)oxy)-N-phenylacetamide derivatives against phytopathogens
-
Abstract: A total of eighteen 2-((2-(4-(1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)phenyl)quinazolin-4-yl)oxy)-N-phenylacetamide derivatives were designed and synthesized, via hybrid pharmacophore approach. Among these compounds, chemical structure of compound 4a was unambiguously confirmed by means of single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. All the compounds were evaluated in vitro for their inhibition activity against several important phytopathogenic bacteria and fungi in agriculture. The obtained results indicated that several compounds demonstrated potent antibacterial activity against Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo). For example, compounds 4c, 4g and 4q had EC50 values of 35.0, 36.5 and 32.4 μg/mL toward this bacterium, respectively, around 1.5 times more active than commercial bactericide bismerthiazol (EC50 = 89.8 μg/mL). Additionally, compounds 4j and 4p were found to display comparable antifungal activity against Gloeosporium fructigenum at 50 μg/mL, to commercial fungicide hymexazol. Finally, the relationships between antibacterial activities and molecular structures of this class of compounds were discussed in detail. Graphical abstract: [Figure not available: see fulltext.].

- 12N-substituted matrinol derivatives inhibited the expression of fibrogenic genes via repressing integrin/FAK/PI3K/Akt pathway in hepatic stellate cells
-
Twenty new 12N-substituted matrinol derivatives were synthesized and evaluated for their inhibitory effects on collagen α1 (I) (COL1A1) promotor in human hepatic stellate LX-2 cells. The structure-activity relationship (SAR) revealed that introducing a 12N-benzeneaminoacylmethyl substitution might significantly enhance the activity. Compound 8a exhibited the highest inhibitory potency against COL1A1, and its inhibition activity against COL1A1 was further confirmed on both the mRNA and protein levels. It also effectively inhibited the expression of α smooth muscle actin (α-SMA), fibronectin and transforming growth factor β1 (TGFβ1), indicating an extensive inhibitory effect on the expression of fibrogenic genes. The primary mechanism study indicated that it might take action via the Integrin/FAK/PI3K/Akt signaling pathway. The results provided powerful information for further structure optimization, and compound 8a was selected as a novel anti-fibrogenic lead for further investigation.

- 3-Aminomethyl pyridine chalcone derivatives: Design, synthesis, DNA binding and cytotoxic studies

Herein we report design, synthesis, and anticancer activity of compounds 6a–h and 11a–j. Compounds 6a–f were designed based on 3-aminomethyl pyridine attached to different acetamide derivatives and in compounds 6g–h it was attached to coumarin moiety. Coumarin containing compounds 6g–h showed very poor anticancer activity against both A549 (Lungs cancer cell line), and MCF-7 (Breast cancer cell line) cell lines in MTT assay. Compounds 11a–j were designed as derivatives of 3-aminomethyl pyridine and 4-amino chalcones. A series of chalcone derivatives of 3-aminomethyl pyridine 11a–j have been synthesized and screened for their in vitro anticancer activity and DNA binding affinity. Most of the compounds showed very good antimitotic activity against A549 cell line as compared to fluorouracil. Compounds 11g and 11i were selected for DNA-binding studies as they showed excellent activity against cancer cell lines in MTT assay. CT-DNA binding affinity of compounds 11g and 11i have been investigated by UV based DNA titration and fluorescence emission study against DNA-EtBr complex. Interestingly, compound 11i has displayed excellent antiproliferative activity, with IC50 0.0067?±?0.0002?μm, against MCF-7 cell line. Compound 11i has been studied for its cytotoxicity using MTT, LDH, as well as EtBr/AO assay and was found to induce apoptosis in the cancerous cell line.

- Synthesis of novel 1,2,4-triazole derivatives containing the quinazolinylpiperidinyl moiety and: N -(substituted phenyl)acetamide group as efficient bactericides against the phytopathogenic bacterium Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae
-
A series of novel 1,2,4-triazole derivatives (7a-7p) containing the quinazolinylpiperidinyl moiety and N-(substituted phenyl)acetamide group were designed, synthesized and evaluated for their antimicrobial activities in vitro. These compounds were fully characterized by 1H NMR, 13C NMR, HRMS and IR spectra. Notably, the structure of compound 7p was further confirmed through the single-crystal X-ray diffraction method. The obtained bioassay results indicated that most of these compounds exhibited good to excellent antibacterial activities against the rice bacterial pathogen Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo). For example, compounds 7e, 7g, 7n, 7l, 7i, 7k, 7a and 7h had EC50 (half-maximal effective concentration) values of 34.5, 38.3, 39.0, 46.0, 47.5, 54.6, 55.0 and 58.2 μg mL-1 against the bacterium, respectively, which were significantly lower than the control agent Bismerthiazol (85.6 μg mL-1). Additionally, antifungal experiments demonstrated that all the compounds did possess weak inhibition capabilities against three phytopathogenic fungi at 50 μg mL-1, except in the cases of compounds 7e and 7p against the fungus Gibberella zeae. The above experimental results proved that 1,2,4-triazole derivatives bearing both a quinazolinylpiperidinyl fragment and N-(substituted phenyl)acetamide unit are promising candidates for the development of new agricultural bactericides against the pathogenic bacterium Xoo, deserving further investigation in the future.

- 2-(Quinolin-4-yloxy)acetamides Are Active against Drug-Susceptible and Drug-Resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis Strains
-
2-(Quinolin-4-yloxy)acetamides have been described as potent in vitro inhibitors of Mycobacterium tuberculosis growth. Herein, additional chemical modifications of lead compounds were carried out, yielding highly potent antitubercular agents with minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values as low as 0.05 μM. Further, the synthesized compounds were active against drug-resistant strains and were devoid of apparent toxicity to Vero and HaCat cells (IC50s ≥ 20 μM). In addition, the 2-(quinolin-4-yloxy)acetamides showed intracellular activity against the bacilli in infected macrophages with action similar to rifampin, low risk of drug-drug interactions, and no sign of cardiac toxicity in zebrafish (Danio rerio) at 1 and 5 μM. Therefore, these data indicate that this class of compounds may furnish candidates for future development to, hopefully, provide drug alternatives for tuberculosis treatment.

- Searching for New Leads for Tuberculosis: Design, Synthesis, and Biological Evaluation of Novel 2-Quinolin-4-yloxyacetamides
-
In this study, a new series of more than 60 quinoline derivatives has been synthesized and evaluated against Mycobacterium tuberculosis (H37Rv). Apart from the SAR exploration around the initial hits, the optimization process focused on the improvement of the physicochemical properties, cytotoxicity, and metabolic stability of the series. The best compounds obtained exhibited MIC values in the low micromolar range, excellent intracellular antimycobacterial activity, and an improved physicochemical profile without cytotoxic effects. Further investigation revealed that the amide bond was the source for the poor blood stability observed, while some of the compounds exhibited hERG affinity. Compound 83 which contains a benzoxazole ring instead of the amide group was found to be a good alternative, with good blood stability and no hERG affinity, providing new opportunities for the series. Overall, the obtained results suggest that further optimization of solubility and microsomal stability of the series could provide a strong lead for a new anti-TB drug development program.

- SAR and identification of 2-(quinolin-4-yloxy)acetamides as Mycobacterium tuberculosis cytochrome bc 1 inhibitors
-
A previous phenotypic screen by GSK identified 2-(quinolin-4-yloxy)acetamides as potent growth inhibitors of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb). We report the results of a preliminary structure-activity relationship (SAR) study of the compound class which has yielded more potent inhibitors. An Mtb cytochrome bd oxidase deletion mutant (cydKO) was found to be hypersensitive to most members of the compound library, while strains carrying single-nucleotide polymorphisms of the qcrB gene, which encodes a subunit of the menaquinol cytochrome c oxidoreductase (bc1) complex, were resistant to the library. These results identify that the 2-(quinolin-4-yloxy)acetamide class of Mtb growth inhibitors can be added to the growing number of scaffolds that target the M. tuberculosis bc1 complex.

In this paper, a series of N-(4-substituted phenyl) acetamide derivatives bearing 1,3,4-oxadiazole moiety were synthesised. Preliminary bioassays revealed that these compounds not only exhibited favourable antiviral activities toward tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) but also demonstrated sustained inhibition activities against plant pathogenic bacteria, including Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae, Ralstonia solanacearum, and Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. citri. Among the derivatives, TC8and TC20exerted the strongest curative activities against TMV, with half-maximal effective concentration (EC50) values of 239.5 and 236.2 μg/mL, respectively, which were comparable to that of ningnanmycin (EC50=273.2 μg/mL). Given their simple synthesis, the target compounds can serve as alternative antiviral candidates.

-
Using an orthologue-based design approach, we synthesized and assayed a series of thiazolyl-1H-benzo[d]imidazole derivatives as inhibitors of Mycobacterium tuberculosis inosine 5′-monophosphate dehydrogenase (MtIMPDH). From these experiments, a benzo[d] imidazole compound was described to inhibit the enzyme in the low micromolar range (KiIMP = 0.55 ± 0.02 μM), which places this compound among the most potent in vitro MtIMPDH inhibitors developed to date. In addition, steady-state kinetic measurements and docking simulations were employed to determine its inhibition and interaction modes. The results described herein may be useful for the design and development of novel alternative therapeutics for tuberculosis that target MtIMPDH, a predicted to be essential (for optimal in vitro bacillus growth), druggable and assayable molecular target.

-
In recent years, clinical symptoms resulting from West Nile virus (WNV) infection have worsened in severity, with an increased frequency in neuroinvasive diseases among the elderly. As there are presently no successful therapies against WNV for use in humans, continual efforts to develop new chemotherapeutics against this virus are highly desired. The viral NS2B-NS3 protease is a promising target for viral inhibition due to its importance in viral replication and its unique substrate preference. In this study, a WNV NS2B-NS3 protease inhibitor with a 2-{6-[2-(5-phenyl-4H-[1,2,4]triazol-3-ylsulfanyl)acetylamino]benzothiazol-2-ylsulfanyl}acetamide scaffold was identified during screening. Optimization of this initial hit by synthesis and screening of a focused compound library with this scaffold led to the identification of a novel uncompetitive inhibitor (1a24, IC50=3.4±0.2μM) of the WNV NS2B-NS3 protease. Molecular docking of 1a24 into the WNV protease showed that the compound interferes with productive interactions of the NS2B cofactor with the NS3 protease and is an allosteric inhibitor of the WNV NS3 protease.

- Structure-activity relationship study of selective benzimidazole-based inhibitors of Cryptosporidium parvum IMPDH
-
Cryptosporidium parasites are important waterborne pathogens of both humans and animals. The Cryptosporidium parvum and Cryptosporidium hominis genomes indicate that the only route to guanine nucleotides is via inosine 5′-monophosphate dehydrogenase (IMPDH). Thus the inhibition of the parasite IMPDH presents a potential strategy for treating Cryptosporidium infections. A selective benzimidazole-based inhibitor of C. parvum IMPDH (CpIMPDH) was previously identified in a high throughput screen. Here we report a structure-activity relationship study of benzimidazole-based compounds that resulted in potent and selective inhibitors of CpIMPDH. Several compounds display potent antiparasitic activity in vitro.

The antidepressant screening against DA, NE, and serotonin neurotransmitter uptake inhibition was carried out using the Neurotransmitter Transporter Uptake Assay Kit. The compounds in Series B showed relatively higher reuptake inhibitory activity for SERT, NET, and DAT than those in Series A. The length of spacer between the central piperazine core and the terminal phenyl ring substituted at the piperazine ring in Series B seems to exert an important role in the activity.

- 1,3-Dipropyl-8-(1-phenylacetamide-1H-pyrazol-3-yl)-xanthine derivatives as highly potent and selective human A2B adenosine receptor antagonists
-
A new series of 1,3-dipropyl-8-(1-phenylacetamide-1H-pyrazol-3-yl)-xanthine derivatives has been identified as potent A2B adenosine receptor antagonists. The products have been evaluated for their binding affinities for the human A2B, A1, A2A, and A3 adenosine receptors. N-(4-chloro-phenyl)-2-[3-(2,6-dioxo-1,3-dipropyl-2,3,6,7-tetrahydro-1H-purin-8-yl)-5-methyl-pyrazol-1-yl] (11c) showed a high affinity for the human A2B adenosine receptor Ki = 7 nM and good selectivity (A1, A2A, A3/A2B > 140). Synthesis and SAR of this novel class of compounds is presented herein.
