Thirty-eight disulfides containing N-arylacetamide were designed and synthesized in an effort to develop novel urease inhibitors. Biological evaluation revealed that some of the synthetic compounds exhibited strong inhibitory potency against both cell-free urease and urease in intact cell with low cytotoxicity to mammalian cells even at concentration up to 250 μM. Of note, 2,2′-dithiobis(N-(2-fluorophenyl)acetamide) (d7), 2,2′-dithiobis(N-(3,5-difluorophenyl)acetamide) (d24), and 2,2′-dithiobis(N-(3-fluorophenyl)acetamide) (d8) were here identified as the most active inhibitors with IC50 of 0.074, 0.44, and 0.81 μM, showing 32- to 355-fold higher potency than the positive control acetohydroxamic acid. These disulfides were confirmed to bind urease without covalent modification of the cysteine residue and to inhibit urease reversibly with a mixed inhibition mechanism. They also showed very good anti-Helicobacter pylori activities with d8 showing a comparable potency to the clinical used drug amoxicillin. The impressive in vitro biological profile indicated their immense potential as therapeutic agents to tackle H. pylori caused infections.

Abstract: In view of discovering novel bioactive molecules, 1-phenyl-1H-2-(1-aryl-5-methyl-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)-3-(N-aryl-carbamoylmethylthio)-1,2,4-triazoles (8a–n) were designed and synthesized in good yield. Preliminary antibacterial activity was tested against Chromobacterium violaceum and Xanthomonas campestris pv. Campestris (Xcc). Out of 14 derivatives, compound 8g selectively possessed antibacterial activity against C. violaceum. Further derivatives that possessed an electron-withdrawing group and halogen atoms in N-phenylacetamide moiety were moderately active against Xcc (plant pathogen). After observing the reduction of violacein production through plate assay, compounds 8a, 8c, 8h, 8i and 8m were subjected to quantification of quorum sensing inhibition. Compounds with the electron-withdrawing group in N-phenylacetamide moiety showed admirable activity with > 80% inhibition of violacein. Mainly compound 8c which was inactive against the growth of bacteria were identified as excellent QSI which could be a lead compound for further development.

Cellular tumor antigen p53 is significant for cancer prevention and its mutation is most documented genomic change in human cancers. Thus, restoration of p53 function by interruption of the p53-MDM2 interaction opens up a prospect for a nongenotoxic anticancer therapeutic strategy. A novel series of molecules comprising 1,2,4-triazole-3-thiol scaffold were successfully discovered by structure-based designing approach. In silico modules predicted that 5-(4-chlorophenyl)-4-phenyl-4H-1,2,4-triazole-3-thiol derivatives have draggability and ability to mimic critical binding residues of p53. All target compounds were assayed for their in vitro antiproliferative activity against A549, U87 and HL60 cell lines. Twelve out of sixteen compounds exhibited good in vitro inhibitory activity in micromolar range. Especially, compound 6h possessed acute antitumor activity with IC50 values 3.854, 4.151 and 17.522 μM against three tested cell lines. It represents as a promising lead for further optimization and a template for development of novel antitumor agents.

Butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) has been considered as a potential therapeutic target for Alzheimer's disease (AD) because of its compensation capacity to hydrolyze acetylcholine (ACh) and its close association with Aβ deposit. Here, we identified S06-1011 (hBChE IC50 = 16 nM) and S06-1031 (hBChE IC50 = 25 nM) as highly effective and selective BChE inhibitors, which were proved to be safe and long-acting. Candidate compounds exhibited neuroprotective effects and the ability to improve cognition in scopolamine- and Aβ1-42 peptide-induced cognitive deficit models. The best candidate S06-1011 increased the level of ghrelin, a substrate of BChE, which can function as improving the mental mood appetite. The weight gain of the S06-1011-treated group remarkably increased. Hence, BChE inhibition not only plays a protective role against dementia but also exerts a great effect on treating and nursing care.

In order to find new and highly effective anti-tumor drugs with targeted therapeutic effects, a series of novel 4-aminoquinazoline derivatives containing N-phenylacetamide structure were designed, synthesized and evaluated for antitumor activity against four human cancer cell lines (H1975, PC-3, MDA-MB-231 and MGC-803) using MTT assay. The results showed that the compound 19e had the most potent antiproliferative activity against H1975, PC-3, MDA-MB-231 and MGC-803 cell lines. At the same time, compound 19e could significantly inhibit the colony formation and migration of H1975 cells. Compound 19e also arrested the H1975 cell cycle in the G1 phase and mediated cell apoptosis, promoted the accumulation of ROS in H1975 cells. Furthermore, compound 19e exerted antitumor effect in vitro by reducing the expression of anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-2 and increasing the pro-apoptotic protein Bax and p53. Mechanistically, compound 19e could significantly decreased the phosphorylation of EGFR and its downstream protein PI3K in H1975 cells. Which indicated that compound 19e targeted H1975 cell via interfering with EGFR-PI3K signaling pathway. Molecular docking showed that compound 19e could bind into the active pocket of EGFR. Those work suggested that compound 19e would have remarkable implications for further design of anti-tumor agents.

In our overall goal to overcome the limitations associated with natural products for the management of Alzheimer's disease and to develop in-vivo active multifunctional cholinergic inhibitors, we embarked on the development of ferulic acid analogs. A systematic SAR study to improve upon the cholinesterase inhibition of ferulic acid with analogs that also had lower logP was carried out. Enzyme inhibition and kinetic studies identified compound 7a as a lead molecule with preferential acetylcholinesterase inhibition (AChE IC50 = 5.74 ± 0.13 μM; BChE IC50 = 14.05 ± 0.10 μM) compared to the parent molecule ferulic acid (% inhibition of AChE and BChE at 20 μM, 15.19 ± 0.59 and 19.73 ± 0.91, respectively). Molecular docking and dynamics studies revealed that 7a fits well into the active sites of AChE and BChE, forming stable and strong interactions with key residues Asp74, Trp286, and Tyr337 in AChE and with Tyr128, Trp231, Leu286, Ala328, Phe329, and Tyr341 in BChE. Compound 7a was found to be an efficacious antioxidant in a DPPH assay (IC50 = 57.35 ± 0.27 μM), and it also was able to chelate iron. Data from atomic force microscopy images demonstrated that 7a was able to modulate aggregation of amyloid β1-42. Upon oral administration, 7a exhibited promising in-vivo activity in the scopolamine-induced AD animal model and was able to improve spatial memory in cognitive deficit mice in the Y-maze model. Analog 7a could effectively reverse the increased levels of AChE and BChE in scopolamine-treated animals and exhibited potent ex-vivo antioxidant properties. These findings suggest that 7a can act as a lead molecule for the development of naturally-inspired multifunctional molecules for the management of Alzheimer's and other neurodegenerative disorders.

With the surge in the cases of Alzheimer's disease (AD) over the years, several targets have been explored to curb the disease. Cholinesterases, namely acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE), remain to be the available targets that are amendable to currently approved treatments. In this study, a series of novel compounds based on tramiprosate, a highly specific amyloid beta (Aβ) inhibitor, was designed to inhibit AChE, BuChE, and Aβ aggregation. In particular, the addition of a pyridinium/isoquinolinium ring to the tramiprosate moiety (to give compounds 3a–j) led to an increase in the binding affinity for the catalytic active site of cholinesterase, which was hampered by the presence of sulfonic acid. Exclusion of the sulfonic acid moiety led to a novel but effective class of cholinesterase inhibitors (9a–w). in vitro Aβ aggregation inhibition assay indicated that compounds 3a–j, 9e–f, 9i–l, 9q, 9r, 9u–w, and 12 could inhibit over 10% Aβ aggregation at 1 mM concentration. Cholinesterase inhibition assay suggested that compounds 9g, 9h, 9o, and 9q–t exhibit over 70% inhibition on both AChE and BuChE at a concentration of 100 μM. Amongst the designed molecules, compound 9r (ca 18% at 1 mM) showed comparable inhibitory effect on the inhibition of Aβ aggregation with tramiprosate (ca 20% at 1 mM), along with impressive cholinesterase inhibitory potential (AChE IC50 = 13 μM and BuChE IC50 = 12 μM), acceptable toxicity and ability to pass through blood brain barrier, which could be used to ameliorate the phenotypes of AD in preclinical models.
