- New 3-(1H-benzo[d]imidazol-2-yl)quinolin-2(1H)-one-based triazole derivatives: Design, synthesis, and biological evaluation as antiproliferative and apoptosis-inducing agents
-
A series of 1,2,3-triazole derivatives based on the quinoline–benzimidazole hybrid scaffold was designed, synthesized, and screened against a panel of NCI-60 humanoid cancer cell lines for in vitro cytotoxicity evaluation, which revealed that compound Q6 was the most potent cytotoxic agent with excellent GI50, TGI, and LC50 values on multiple cancer cell lines. Q6 was tested further on the BT-474 breast cancer line to evaluate the mechanism of action. Preliminary screening studies based on the 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide assay revealed that compound Q6 had an excellent antiproliferative effect against human breast cancer cells, BT-474, with IC50 values of 0.59 ± 0.01 μM. The detailed study based on the acridine orange/ethidium bromide staining (AO/EB) and the 4′,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI) assay suggested that the antiproliferative activity shown was due to the induction of apoptosis on exposure to Q6. Further, DCFDA staining showed the generation of reactive oxygen species, altering the mitochondrial potential and leading to the initiation of apoptosis. This was further supported by JC-1 staining, indicating that this scaffold can contribute to the development of more potent derivatives.

- Synthesis and antidiabetic evaluation of benzimidazole-tethered 1,2,3-triazoles
-
Some novel benzimidazole-tethered 1,2,3-triazole derivatives (4a–r) were synthesized by a click reaction between 2-substituted 1-(prop-2-yn-1-yl)-1H-benzo[d]imidazole and in situ azide. The structures of the synthesized compounds were confirmed by spectroscopic studies (one- and two-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance, Fourier transform infrared, and high-resolution mass spectra). The synthesized compounds were evaluated for their antidiabetic activity. Compounds 4a–r exhibited a good-to-moderate α-amylase and α-glucosidase inhibitory activity, with IC50 values ranging from 0.0410 to 0.0916 μmol/ml and 0.0146 to 0.0732 μmol/ml, respectively. Compounds 4e, 4g, and 4n were found to be most active. Furthermore, the binding conformation of the most active compounds was ascertained by docking studies.

- Design, synthesis, fungicidal activity and molecular docking studies of novel 2-((2-hydroxyphenyl)methylamino)acetamide derivatives
-
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.

- Substituted Pyridazin-3(2 H)-ones as Highly Potent and Biased Formyl Peptide Receptor Agonists
-
Herein we describe the development of a focused series of functionalized pyridazin-3(2H)-one-based formyl peptide receptor (FPR) agonists that demonstrate high potency and biased agonism. The compounds described demonstrated biased activation of prosurvival signaling, ERK1/2 phosphorylation, through diminution of the detrimental FPR1/2-mediated intracellular calcium (Cai2+) mobilization. Compound 50 showed an EC50 of 0.083 μM for phosphorylation of ERK1/2 and an approximate 20-fold bias away from Cai2+ mobilization at the hFPR1.

- 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.].

- Synthesis and antiproliferative activity of 2-chlorophenyl carboxamide thienopyridines
-
3-Amino-2-arylcarboxamide-thieno[2,3-b]pyridines are a known class of antiproliferative compounds with activity against the phospholipase C enzyme. To further investigate the structure activity relationships of these derivatives a series of analogues were prepared modifying key functional groups. It was determined that modification of the 3-amino and 2-aryl carboxamide functionalities resulted in complete elimination of activity, whilst modification at C-5 allowed compounds of greater activity to be prepared.

Seventy nine derivatives of thieno[2,3-b]quinolines, tetrahydrothieno[2,3-b]quinoline, dihydrocyclopenta[b]thieno[3,2-e]pyridine, cyclohepta[b]thieno[3,2-e]pyridine and hexahydrocycloocta[b]thieno[3,2-e]pyridine were either synthesized or obtained commercially and tested for their antiproliferative activity against HCT116, MDA-MB-468 and MDA-MB-231 human cancer cell lines. The most potent eight compounds were active against all cell lines with IC50 values in the 80–250 nM range. In general hexahydrocycloocta[b]thieno[3,2-e]pyridines were most active with increasing activity observed as larger cycloalkyl rings were fused to the pyridine ring.

- 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.

- 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.

-
Cryptosporidium inosine 5′-monophosphate dehydrogenase (CpIMPDH) has emerged as a therapeutic target for treating Cryptosporidium parasites because it catalyzes a critical step in guanine nucleotide biosynthesis. A 4-oxo-[1]benzopyrano[4,3-c]pyrazole derivative was identified as a moderately potent (IC50 = 1.5 μM) inhibitor of CpIMPDH. We report a SAR study for this compound series resulting in 8k (IC50 = 20 ± 4 nM). In addition, an X-ray crystal structure of CpIMPDH·IMP·8k is also presented.

- 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.

A series of compounds were designed as T-type calcium channel blocker containing 6 or 5 pharmacophore features from structure-based virtual screening. To optimize the suggested structure, over 130 derivatives were synthesized and their inhibitory activities on T-type calcium channel were assayed using in vitro screening system with α1G and α1H clones. For the compounds with higher activities in FDSS assay system, the efficacy was measured by patch-clamp method. Among the library with 5 features, alkaneamide derivatives (7b, 9j, 11b, 11g, 11h) with 4-arylsubstituted piperazine showed better IC50 values than Mibefradil.

A novel sulfanyltriazole was discovered as an HIV-1 non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor via HTS using a cell-based assay. Chemical modifications and molecular modeling studies were carried out to establish its SAR and understand its interactions with the enzyme. These modifications led to the identification of sulfanyltriazoles with low nanomolar potency for inhibiting HIV-1 replication and promising activities against selected NNRTI resistant mutants. These novel and potent sulfanyltriazoles could serve as advanced leads for further optimization.
