Previously, we demonstrated that certain heterocyclic compounds derived from 3-substituted-1,2,4-triazole-5-thiones had promising analgesic/anti-inflammatory activities together with low ulcerogenic properties. Therefore, we sought to design and synthesize new derivatives of triazol-5-thiones-fused heterocycles. In the present study, a series of novel bis-Mannich bases, namely 2,6-disubstituted-6,7-dihydro-5H-1,2,4-triazolo[3,2-b]-1,3,5-thiadiazines (1a–d, 2a–c, and 3a–d), were synthesized and characterized to assess their possible anti-inflammatory/analgesic properties. Additionally, their ability to induce gastric toxicity was also evaluated. Several of the condensed compounds produced a degree of analgesic activity comparable to reference drugs in both the hot plate and tail-flick tests. A strong anti-inflammatory effect was observed for the derivatives carrying a benzyl group at the second position (2a–c). The majority of the prepared compounds caused comparatively less gastrointestinal (GI) side effects than the reference drugs naproxen and indomethacin did. These results showed that 1,2,4-triazolo[3,2-b]-1,3,5-thiadiazine derivatives might afford a safer alternative to currently available analgesic/anti-inflammatory agents for the treatment and management of inflammatory disease and pain.

The recently resolved crystal structure of the neuropeptide Y Y1 receptor (Y1R), co-crystallized with the high-affinity (pKi: 10.11), argininamide-type Y1R antagonist UR-MK299 (2), revealed that the NΩ-carbamoyl substituent (van der Waals volume: 139 ?3) is deeply buried in the receptor, occupying a hydrophobic pocket. We synthesized and characterized a series of argininamides, structurally related to 2. Y1R affinity decreased with increasing size of the carbamoyl residue (minimal pKi: 5.67). Exceeding a critical size of the substituent (van der Waals volume: 212 ?3), the ligands bound in an inverted mode with the carbamoyl side chain located at the surface of the receptor, as suggested by induced-fit docking and MD simulations.

Deoxyuridine triphosphate derivatives (dUTPs) modified at the C5 position of the pyrimidine ring with various aromatic hydrocarbon substituents of different hydrophilicities have been synthesized. The aromatic hydrocarbon substituents were attached to dUTPs via a CH[dbnd]CH[sbnd]CH2[sbnd]NHCO[sbnd]CH2 linker. The efficiency of the PCR incorporation of modified dUMPs using Taq, Tth, Vent (exo-) and Deep Vent (exo-) polymerases and a model DNA template containing one, two and three adjacent adenine nucleotides at three different sites within the sequence was investigated. For all the polymerases used, the yield of the modified PCR product was significantly increased with increasing hydrophilicity of the aromatic hydrocarbon substituent. In particular, for the above polymerases, the efficiency of the incorporation of dUMPs modified with the most hydrophilic of the studied aromatic hydrocarbon substituents, a 4-hydroxyphenyl residue, was 60–85% of the efficiency of dTMP incorporation. At the same time, the relative efficiencies of the incorporation of dUMPs modified with 2-, 4-methoxyphenyl, phenyl and 4-nitrophenyl substituents ranged from 20 to 50% and were 2–18% for the 1-naphthalene and 4-biphenyl groups, which were the most hydrophobic of the studied aromatic hydrocarbon substituents.

Background: The 18 kDa translocator protein (TSPO), previously known as the peripheral- type benzodiazepine receptor, plays a key role for the synthesis of neurosteroids by promoting transport of cholesterol from the outer to the inner mitochondrial membrane, which is the ratelimiting step in neurosteroid biosynthesis. Neurosteroids interact with nonbenzodiazepine site of GABAa receptor causing an anxiolytic effect without the side effects. Methods: Using the original peptide drug-based design strategy, the first putative dipeptide ligand of the TSPO N-carbobenzoxy-L-tryptophanyl-L-isoleucine amide (GD-23) was obtained. Molecular docking of GD-23 in the active pocket of the TSPO receptor using Glide software was carried out. The lead compounds GD-23 and its analogues were synthesized using activated succinimide esters coupling method. The anxiolytic activity of GD-23 and its analogues was investigated in vivo, using two validated behavioral tests, illuminated open field and elevated plus-maze. Results: The in vivo studies revealed that the following parameters are necessary for the manifestation of anxiolytic activity of new compounds: the L-configuration of tryptophan, the presence of an amide group at the C-terminus, the specific size of the N-acyl substituent at the Nterminus. Compound GD-23 (N-carbobenzoxy-L-tryptophanyl-L-isoleucine amide) demonstrated a high anxiolytic-like effect in the doses of 0.05-1.0 mg/kg i.p. comparable with that of diazepam. Compound GD-23 was also active in the open field test when was administered orally in the doses of 0.1-5.0 mg/kg. The involvement of TSPO receptor in the mechanism of anxiolytic-like activity of new compounds was proved by the antagonism of compound GD-23 with TSPO selective inhibitor PK11195 as well as with inhibitors of enzymes which are involved in the biosynthesis of neurosteroids, trilostane and finasteride. Conclusion: A series of N-acyl-tryptophanyl-containing dipeptides were designed and synthesized as 18 kDa translocator protein (TSPO) ligands. Using a drug-based peptide design method a series of the first dipeptide TSPO ligands have been designed and synthesized and their anxiolytic activity has been evaluated. In general, some of the compounds displayed a high level of anxiolytic efficacy comparable with that of diazepam. The involvement of TSPO receptor in the mechanism of anxiolytic activity of new compounds was proved using two methods. On this basis, the N-acyl-Ltryptophanyl- isoleucine amides could potentially be a novel class of TSPO ligands with anxiolytic activity.

Human tissue transglutaminase (hTG2) is a multifunctional enzyme. It is primarily known for its calcium-dependent transamidation activity that leads to formation of an isopeptide bond between glutamine and lysine residues found on the surface of proteins, but it is also a GTP binding protein. Overexpression and unregulated hTG2 activity have been associated with numerous human diseases, including cancer stem cell survival and metastatic phenotype. Herein, we present a series of targeted covalent inhibitors (TCIs) based on our previously reported Cbz-Lys scaffold. From this structure-activity relationship (SAR) study, novel irreversible inhibitors were identified that block the transamidation activity of hTG2 and allosterically abolish its GTP binding ability with a high degree of selectivity and efficiency (kinact/KI > 105 M-1 min-1). One optimized inhibitor (VA4) was also shown to inhibit epidermal cancer stem cell invasion with an EC50 of 3.9 μM, representing a significant improvement over our previously reported "hit" NC9.

A study of the structure - activity relationships of 5′-O-[N- (salicyl)sulfamoyl]adenosine (6), a potent inhibitor of the bifunctional enzyme salicyl-AMP ligase (MbtA, encoded by the gene Rv2384) in Mycobacterium tuberculosis, is described, targeting the salicyl moiety. A systematic series of analogues was prepared exploring the importance of substitution at the C-2 position revealing that a hydroxy group is required for optimal activity. Examination of a series of substituted salicyl derivatives indicated that substitution at C-4 was tolerated. Consequently, a series of analogues at this position provided 4-fluoro derivative, which displayed an impressive MIC 99 of 0.098 μM against whole-cell M. tuberculosis under iron-limiting conditions. Examination of other heterocyclic, cycloalkyl, alkyl, and aminoacyl replacements of the salicyl moiety demonstrated that these nonconserative modifications were poorly tolerated, a result consistent with the fairly strict substrate specificities of related non-ribosomal peptide synthetase adenylation enzymes.

The synthesis of methionine-containing peptide-oligonucleotide hybrids has been found to be best accomplished by a stepwise solid-phase approach in which peptide assembly using the sulfoxide derivative of methionine is followed by elongation of the oligonucleotide chain using the phosphite triester methodology, ammonia deprotection, and reduction of the sulfoxide to thioether by reaction with N-methylmercaptoacetamide. Quantitative amino acid incorporation yields could not always be achieved when the order of assembly of the two moieties was reversed, i.e. by elongating the peptide chain on a resin-linked oligonucleotide in order to avoid exposure of the thioether function to oxidizing conditions.
