Tacrine is a known Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitors having hepatotoxicity as main liability associated with it. The present study aims to reduce its hepatotoxicity by synthesizing tacrine linked triazole glycoconjugates via Huisgen's [3 + 2] cycloaddition of anomeric azides and terminal acetylenes derived from tacrine. A series of triazole based glycoconjugates containing both acetylated (A-1 to A-7) and free sugar hydroxyl groups (A-8 to A-14) at the amino position of tacrine were synthesized in good yield taking aid from molecular docking studies and evaluated for their in vitro AChE inhibition activity as well as hepatotoxicity. All the hybrids were found to be non-toxic on HePG2 cell line at 200 μM (100 % cell viability) as compared to tacrine (35 % cell viability) after 24 h of incubation period. Enzyme kinetic studies carried out for one of the potent hybrids in the series A-1 (IC50 0.4 μM) revealed its mixed inhibition approach. Thus, compound A-1 can be used as principle template to further explore the mechanism of action of different targets involved in Alzheimer's disease (AD) which stands as an adequate chemical probe to be launched in an AD drug discovery program.

Background: Methotrexate (MTX) is the representative drug among the dis-ease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs. However, the conventional treatment with MTX showed many limitations and side effects. Objective: To strengthen the targeting ability and circulation time of MTX in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, the present study focused on developing a novel drug delivery system of methotrexate-loaded human serum albumin nanoparticles (MTX-NPs) modified by mannose, which are referred to as MTX-M-NPs. Methods: Firstly, mannose-derived carboxylic acid was synthesized and further modified on the surface of MTX-NPs to prepare MTX-M-NPs. The formulation of nanoparticles was optimized by the method of central composite design (CCD), with the drug lipid ra-tio, oil-aqueous ratio, and cholesterol or lecithin weight as the independent variables. The average particle size and encapsulation efficiency were the response variables. The response of different formulations was calculated, and the response surface diagram, con-tour diagram, and mathematical equation were used to relate the dependent and independent variables to predict the optimal formula ratio. The uptake of MTX-M-NPs by neu-trophils was studied through confocal laser detection. Further, MTX-M-NPs were subject-ed to assessment of the pharmacokinetics profile after intravenous injection with Sprague-Dawley rats. Results: This targeting drug delivery system was successfully developed. Results from Nuclear Magnetic Resonance and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy analysis can verify the successful preparation of this drug delivery system. Based on the optimized for-mula, MTX-M-NPs were prepared with a particle size of 188.17 ± 1.71 nm and an encapsulation rate of 95.55 ± 0.33%. MTX-M-NPs displayed significantly higher cellular uptake than MTX-NPs. The pharmacokinetic results showed that MTX-M-NPs could pro-long the in vivo circulation time of MTX. Conclusion: This targeting drug delivery system laid a promising foundation for the treatment of RA.
