Development of disulfide-derived fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase (FBPase) covalent inhibitors for the treatment of type 2 diabetes

Fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase (FBPase), as a key rate-limiting enzyme in the gluconeogenesis (GNG) pathway, represents a practical therapeutic strategy for type 2 diabetes (T2D). Our previous work first identified cysteine residue 128 (C128) was an important allosteric site in the structure of FBPase, while pharmacologically targeting C128 attenuated the catalytic ability of FBPase. Herein, ten approved cysteine covalent drugs were selected for exploring FBPase inhibitory activities, and the alcohol deterrent disulfiram displayed superior inhibitory efficacy among those drugs. Based on the structure of lead compound disulfiram, 58 disulfide-derived compounds were designed and synthesized for investigating FBPase inhibitory activities. Optimal compound 3a exhibited significant FBPase inhibition and glucose-lowering efficacy in vitro and in vivo. Furthermore, 3a covalently modified the C128 site, and then regulated the N125–S124–S123 allosteric pathway of FBPase in mechanism. In summary, 3a has the potential to be a novel FBPase inhibitor for T2D therapy.

Novel pyrrolobenzoxaboroles: Design, synthesis, and biological evaluation against Trypanosoma brucei

Human African trypanosomiasis is a fatal parasitic infection caused by the protozoan Trypanosoma brucei. The development of novel antitrypanosomal agents is urgently needed. Here we report the synthesis and structure-activity relationship of a new class of benzoxaboroles as antitrypanosomal agents. These compounds showed antiparasitic IC50 values ranging from 4.02 to 0.03 μg/mL and satisfactory cytotoxicity profile. Three of the lead compounds were demonstrated to cure the parasitic infection in a murine acute infection model. The structure-activity relationship of the pyrrolobenzoxaboroles are also discussed.

Antidiabetic pyrrolecarboxylic acids

Certain pyrrolecarboxylic and pyrroleacetic acid derivatives substituted on the pyrrole ring with thioether groups, acyl groups, phenyl, substituted phenyl, phenoxy, substituted phenoxy, benzyl or halo and optionally substituted on the pyrrole nitrogen with alkyl, and the pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, are useful in lowering the blood glucose levels of hyperglycemic animals.

Electrophilic additions to allenes. VI. The role of steric versus electronic effects in the reactions of arenesulphenyl halides with allenes

The role of steric and electronic effects during the rate and product determining steps for the addition of arenesulphenyl chlorides to 1,3-disubstituted allenes has been briefly examined.Both effects appear to be generally of minimal importance during the rate determinig step.The available rate data indicate the presence of little, if any, build up of positive charge on sulphur.These results are interpreted in terms of an SN2 attack on bivalent sulphur leading to an alkylidenethiiranium ion intermediate.Steric effects are of greater importance in the product determinig step, particularly when the sulphenyl chlorides possess two bulky ortho substituents, as in the case of 2,4,6-triisopropylbenzenesulphenyl chloride.
