The medications in use for treating migraine are directed either towards inhibiting the characteristic migraine pain or towards preventing it from occurring. In this pursuit, ergotamine and sumatriptan class of 5-HT1B receptor agonists have been proved to be extremely effective. Further research into this field led us to design cyanopyridone derivatives that were synthesized through cyclization of 2-cyano-N-phenylacetamides with malonitrile and 2,3-dihydrobenzo[b][1,4]dioxine-6-carbaldehyde. The synthesized cyanopyridones analogs, when docked with active site of 5-HT1B receptor, showed better binding affinity compared to standard antimigraine medications. Additionally, in silico ADME prediction for drug-likeness and pharmacokinetics revealed that all compounds are safer and can be used as antimigraine medicine. The structure of the synthesized compounds has been elucidated on the basis of spectral analysis.

Development of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma translocation protein 1 (MALT1) inhibitors is of great value and significance in the treatment of neoplastic disorders and inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. However, there is a lack of effective MALT1 inhibitors in clinic. Herein, a novel class of potent 5-oxo-1-thioxo-4,5-dihydro-1H-thiazolo[3,4-a]quinazoline-based MALT1 inhibitors and their covalent derivatives were first identified and designed through high-throughput screening. We demonstrated that compounds 15c, 15e, and 20c effectively inhibited the MALT1 protease and displayed selective cytotoxicity to activated B cell-like diffuse large B cell lymphoma with low single-digit micromolar potency. Furthermore, compound 20c specifically repressed NF-κB signaling and induced cell apoptosis in MALT1-dependent TMD8 cells in a dose-dependent manner. More importantly, 20c showed good pharmacokinetic properties and antitumor efficacy with no significant toxicity in the TMD8 xenograft tumor model. Collectively, this study provides valuable lead compounds of MALT1 inhibitors for further structural optimization and antitumor mechanism study.

The first nickel-catalyzed oxidative domino Csp3-H/N-H double isocyanide insertion reaction of acetamides with isocyanides has been developed for the synthesis of pyrrolin-2-one derivatives. A wide range of acetamides bearing various functional groups are compatible with this reaction system by utilizing Ni(acac)2as a catalyst. In this transformation, isocyanide could serve as a C1 connector and insert into the inactive Csp3-H bond, representing an effective way to construct heterocycles.

Electron-rich arenes are oxidatively photochlorinated in the presence of catalytic amounts of bromide ions, visible light, and 4CzIPN as organic photoredox catalyst. The substrates are brominated in situ in a first photoredox-catalyzed oxidation step, followed by a photocatalyzed ipso-chlorination, yielding the target compounds in high ortho/para regioselectivity. Dioxygen serves as a green and convenient terminal oxidant. The use of aqueous hydrochloric acid as the chloride source reduces the amount of saline by-products.

Ion selectivity is a defining feature of a given ion channel and is considered immutable. Here we show that ion selectivity of the lysosomal ion channel TPC2, which is hotly debated (Calcraft et al., 2009; Guo et al., 2017; Jha et al., 2014; Ruas et al., 2015; Wang et al., 2012), depends on the activating ligand. A high-throughput screen identified two structurally distinct TPC2 agonists. One of these evoked robust Ca2+-signals and non-selective cation currents, the other weaker Ca2+-signals and Na+-selective currents. These properties were mirrored by the Ca2+- mobilizing messenger, NAADP and the phosphoinositide, PI(3,5)P2, respectively. Agonist action was differentially inhibited by mutation of a single TPC2 residue and coupled to opposing changes in lysosomal pH and exocytosis. Our findings resolve conflicting reports on the permeability and gating properties of TPC2 and they establish a new paradigm whereby a single ion channel mediates distinct, functionally-relevant ionic signatures on demand.

Aldo-keto reductase (AKR) 1C3 catalyzes the synthesis of active androgens that promote the progression of prostate cancer. AKR1C3 also contributes to androgen-independent cell proliferation and survival through the metabolism of prostaglandins and reactive aldehydes. Because of its elevation in castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) tissues, AKR1C3 is a promising therapeutic target for CRPC. In this study, we found a novel potent AKR1C3 inhibitor, N-(4-fluorophenyl)-8-hydroxy-2-imino-2H-chromene-3-carboxamide (2d), and synthesized its derivatives with IC50 values of 25-56 nM and >220-fold selectivity over other AKRs (1C1, 1C2, and 1C4). The structural factors for the inhibitory potency were elucidated by crystallographic study of AKR1C3 complexes with 2j and 2l. The inhibitors suppressed proliferation of prostate cancer 22Rv1 and PC3 cells through both androgen-dependent and androgen-independent mechanisms. Additionally, 2j and 2l prevented prostate tumor growth in a xenograft mouse model. Furthermore, the inhibitors significantly augmented apoptotic cell death induced by anti-CRPC drugs (abiraterone or enzalutamide).

Background: Clinical drugs for herpesvirus exhibit high toxicity and suffer from significant drug resistance. The development of new, effective, and safe anti-herpesvirus agents with different mechanisms of action is greatly required. Objective: Novel inhibitors against herpesvirus with different mechanisms of action from that of clinical drugs. Methods: A series of novel 5-(benzylamino)-1H-1,2,3-triazole-4-carboxamides were efficiently synthesized and EC50 values against Human Cytomegalovirus (HCMV), Varicella-Zoster Virus (VZV) and Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV) were evaluated in vitro. Results: Some compounds present antiviral activity. Compounds 5s and 5t are potent against both HCMV and VZV. Compounds 5m, 5n, 5s, and 5t show similar EC50 values against both TK+ and TK? VZV strains. Conclusion: 5-(Benzylamino)-1H-1, 2,3-triazole-4-carboxamides are active against herpesviruses and their activity is remarkably affected by the nature and the position of substituents in the benzene ring. The results indicate that these derivatives are independent of the viral thymidine kinase (TK) for activation, which is indispensable for current drugs. Their mechanisms of action may differ from those of the clinic anti-herpesvirus drugs.

Chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection represents a major health threat. Current FDA-approved drugs do not cure HBV. Targeting HBV core protein (Cp) provides an attractive approach toward HBV inhibition and possibly infection cure. We have previously identified and characterized a 5-amino-3-methylthiophene-2,4-dicarboxamide (ATDC) compound as a structurally novel hit for capsid assembly effectors (CAEs). We report herein hit validation through studies on absorption, distribution, metabolism and excretion (ADME) properties and pharmacokinetics (PK), and hit optimization via analogue synthesis aiming to probe the structure-activity relationship (SAR) and structure-property relationship (SPR). In the end, these medicinal chemistry efforts led to the identification of multiple analogues strongly binding to Cp, potently inhibiting HBV replication in nanomolar range without cytotoxicity, and exhibiting good oral bioavailability (F). Two of our analogues, 19o (EC50 = 0.11 μM, CC50 > 100 μM, F = 25%) and 19k (EC50 = 0.31 μM, CC50 > 100 μM, F = 46%), displayed overall lead profiles superior to reported CAEs 7–10 used in our studies.

In-depth study of structure-based drug designing can provide vital leads for the development of novel, clinically active molecules. In this present study, twenty six novel pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine analogues (6a-6z) were designed using molecular docking studies. The designed molecules were synthesized in good yields. Structural elucidation of the synthesized molecules was carried out using IR, MS, 1H NMR and 13C NMR spectroscopy. All the synthesized compounds were evaluated for their in-vitro anti-tubercular activity against H37Rv strain by Alamar Blue assay method. Most of the synthesized compounds displayed potent anti-tubercular activities. Amongst all the tested compounds 6p, 6g, 6n and 6h exhibited promising anti-tubercular activity. Further, these potent compounds were gauged for MDR-TB, XDR-TB and cytotoxic study. None of these compounds exhibited potent cytotoxicity. Stability of protein ligand complex was further evaluated by molecular dynamics simulation for 10 ns. All these results indicate that the synthesized compounds could be potential leads for further development of new potent anti-tubercular agents.

The paper focussed on a step-by-step structural modification of a cycloheptathiophene-3-carboxamide derivative recently identified by us as reverse transcriptase (RT)-associated ribonuclease H (RNase H) inhibitor. In particular, its conversion to a 2-aryl-cycloheptathienoozaxinone derivative and the successive thorough exploration of both 2-aromatic and cycloheptathieno moieties led to identify oxazinone-based compounds as new anti-RNase H chemotypes. The presence of the catechol moiety at the C-2 position of the scaffold emerged as critical to achieve potent anti-RNase H activity, which also encompassed anti-RNA dependent DNA polymerase (RDDP) activity for the tricyclic derivatives. Benzothienooxazinone derivative 22 resulted the most potent dual inhibitor exhibiting IC50s of 0.53 and 2.90 μM against the RNase H and RDDP functions. Mutagenesis and docking studies suggested that compound 22 binds two allosteric pockets within the RT, one located between the RNase H active site and the primer grip region and the other close to the DNA polymerase catalytic centre.
