The mosquito Aedes aegypti is the vector of arboviruses such as Zika, Chikungunya, dengue and yellow fever. These infectious diseases have a major impact on public health. The unavailability of effective vaccines or drugs to prevent or treat most of these

In this study, a series of phenyl-1,2,4-oxadiazole derivatives were synthesized and evaluated for anti-allodynic activity. Structure–activity relationship studies identified 1-{4-[3-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)-1,2,4-oxadiazol-5-yl]butyl}piperidine (39) with excellent affinity for the σ1 receptor and selectivity for the σ2 receptor, with poor activity to other central nervous system neurotransmitter receptors and transporters associated with pain. Compound 39 exhibited dose-dependent efficacy in suppressing the formalin-induced flinching and attenuating mechanical allodynia in chronic constriction injury-induced neuropathic rats. These results suggest that compound 39 exerts potent antihyperalgesic activity and could be considered as a promising candidate for treating neuropathic pain.

We have identified 5-(3-chlorothiophen-2-yl)-3-(4-trifluoromethylphenyl)-1, 2,4-oxadiazole (1d) as a novel apoptosis inducer through our caspase- and cell-based high-throughput screening assay. Compound 1d has good activity against several breast and colorectal cancer cell lines but is inactive against several other cancer cell lines. In a flow cytometry assay, treatment of T47D cells with 1d resulted in arrest of cells in the G1 phase, followed by induction of apoptosis. SAR studies of Id showed that the 3-phenyl group can be replaced by a pyridyl group, and a substituted five-member ring in the 5-position is important for activity. 5-(3-Chlorothiophen-2-yl)-3-(5- chloropyridin-2-yl)-1,2,4-oxadiazole (41) has been found to have in vivo activity in a MX-1 tumor model. Using a photoaffinity agent, the molecular target has been identified as TIP47, an IGFII receptor binding protein. Therefore, our cell-based chemical genetics approach for the discovery of apoptosis inducers can identify potential anticancer agents as well as their molecular targets.

A series of 5-thiocyanatomethyl- and 5-alkyl-3-aryl-1,2,4-oxadiazoles were synthesized and evaluated for their activity against kinetoplastid parasites. Formation of the oxadiazole ring was accomplished through the reaction of benzamidoximes with acyl chlorides, while the thiocyanate group was inserted by reacting the appropriate 5-halomethyl oxadiazole with ammonium thiocyanate. The thiocyanate-containing compounds possessed low micromolar activity against Leishmania donovani and Trypanosoma brucei, while the 5-alkyl oxadiazoles were less active against these parasites. 3-(4-Chlorophenyl)-5-(thiocyanatomethyl)-1, 2,4-oxadiazole (compound 4b) displayed modest selectivity for L. donovani axenic amastigote-like parasites over J774 macrophages, PC3 prostate cancer cells, and Vero cells (6.4-fold, 3.8-fold, and 9.1-fold, respectively), while 3-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-5-(thiocyanatomethyl)-1,2,4-oxadiazole (compound 4h) showed 30-fold selectivity against Vero cells but was not selective against PC3 cells. In a murine model of visceral leishmaniasis, compound 4b decreased liver parasitemia caused by L. donovani by 48% when given in five daily i.v. doses at 5mg/kg and by 61% when administered orally for 5days at 50mg/kg. These results indicate that aromatic thiocyanates hold promise for the treatment of leishmanial infections if the selectivity of these compounds can be improved.
Substituted 3-aryl-5-aryl-[1,2,4]-oxadiazoles and analogs as activators of caspases and inducers of apoptosis and the use thereof

The present invention is directed to substituted 3-aryl-5-aryl-[1,2,4]-oxadiazoles and analogs thereof, represented by the Formula I: wherein Ar1, Ar3, A, B and D are defined herein. The present invention also relates to the discovery that compounds having Formula I are activators of caspases and inducers of apoptosis. Therefore, the activators of caspases and inducers of apoptosis of this invention may be used to induce cell death in a variety of clinical conditions in which uncontrolled growth and spread of abnormal cells occurs.
