"Hot loop" protein segments have variable structure and conformation and contribute crucially to protein-protein interactions. We describe a new hot loop mimicking modality, termed PepNats, in which natural product (NP)-inspired structures are incorporated as conformation-determining and-restricting structural elements into macrocyclic hot loop-derived peptides. Macrocyclic PepNats representing hot loops of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and human agouti-related protein (AGRP) were synthesized on solid support employing macrocyclization by imine formation and subsequent stereoselective 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition as key steps. PepNats derived from the iNOS DINNN hot loop and the AGRP RFF hot spot sequence yielded novel and potent ligands of the SPRY domain-containing SOCS box protein 2 (SPSB2) that binds to iNOS, and selective ligands for AGRP-binding melanocortin (MC) receptors. NP-inspired fragment absolute configuration determines the conformation of the peptide part responsible for binding. These results demonstrate that combination of NP-inspired scaffolds with peptidic epitopes enables identification of novel hot loop mimics with conformationally constrained and biologically relevant structure.

Adenylate cyclases (ACs), play a critical role in the conversion of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) into the second messenger cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP). Studies have indicated that adenylyl cyclase type 2 (AC2) is potential drug target for many diseases, however, up to now, there is no AC2-selective agonist reported. In this research, docking-based virtual screening with the combination of cell-based biological assays have been performed for discovering novel potent and selective AC2 agonists. Virtual screening disclosed a novel hit compound 8 as an AC2 agonist with EC50 value of 8.10 μM on recombinant human hAC2 + HEK293 cells. The SAR (structure activity relationship) based on the derivatives of compound 8 was further explored on recombinant AC2 cells and compound 73 was found to be the most active agonist with the EC50 of 90 nM, which is 160-fold more potent than the reported agonist Forskolin and could selectively activate AC2 to inhibit the expression of Interleukin-6. The discovery of a new class of AC2-selective agonists would provide a novel chemical probe to study the physiological function of AC2.

A series of 3,4-dihydro-2(1H)-quinolinone derivatives contained butenediamide fragment were designed and synthesized. Their inhibition potency against chitin synthase and antimicrobial activities were screened in vitro. The enzymatic assays showed that all the synthesized compounds had inhibition potency against chitin synthase at concentration of 300 μg/mL. Compound 2d displayed excellent potency with inhibition percentage (IP) value of 82.3%, while IP value of the control polyoxin B was 87.5%. Compounds 2b, 2e and 2s whose IP values were above 70% showed good inhibition potency against chitin synthase. Moreover, the IC50 value of 2b was comparable with that of polyoxin B (0.09 mM). The Ki of compound 2b was 0.12 mM and the result from Lineweaver-Burk plot showed that 2b was non-competitive inhibitor to bind chitin synthase. The antifungal experiment showed that these compounds had excellent antifungal activity against fungal strains, especially for candida albicans. The antifungal activities against C .albicans of compounds 2b, 2d, 2e and 2l were comparable with that of fluconazole and were superior to that of polyoxin B. Meanwhile, the other compounds against C. albicans showed better antifungal activity (MIC 2 μg/mL) than polyoxin B except for compound 2n (MIC 4 μg/mL). The trial of drug combination use showed that these synthesized compounds had synergistic effects with fluconazole and polyoxin B. It indicated that these compounds were not competing with polyoxin B to bind with chitin synthase, which was also consistence with the result of enzymatic assays. The antibacterial experiment showed that these compounds had no activity against selected strains including three Gram-positive and three Gram-negative bacteria. These results showed that the designed compounds were chitin synthase inhibitors and had selective antifungal activity.

A novel series of benzylidene-succinimide derivatives were synthesized, characterized and evaluated for their cytotoxicities against HCT116, and SW480 cancer cells and NCM460 normal human cells. Their antiangiogenic capabilities were evaluated using a chick chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) assay. The compound, XCF-37b, was selected as the most potent antiangiogenic inhibitor with noncytotoxicity to evaluate the pharmacological effects on human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) and cancer cells in vivo and in vitro. The results showed that XCF-37b inhibited HT29-cell colon tumor growth in vivo, without showing cytotoxicity against the five other cancer cell lines in vitro. Experiments confirmed that XCF-37b had obvious antiangiogenic activity by HUVEC migration and invasion and rat aortic ring angiogenesis ex vivo. Mechanism studies showed that XCF-37b inhibited the AKT/mTOR and VEGFR2 signaling pathways, as evidenced by decreased expressions of phosphor-AKT (p-AKT), p-mTOR, p-VEGFR2 (Tyr175), p-Src (Tyr416), p-FAK (Tyr925), and p-Erk1/2 (Thr202/Tyr204). Moreover, XCF-37b significantly decreased the protein expressions of matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2), MMP-9 and hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α). XCF-37b generally regulated angiogenic inhibition through several regulatory pathways, without significantly interfering with colorectal cancer cell growth.

When N-arylisomaleimides were transformed under enzymatic reaction conditions, the transformation reaction proved to be influenced by electronic effects. This was demonstrated qualitatively by 1H NMR spectroscopy and quantitatively by monitoring the kinetic of isomerization of N-phenylisomaleimide to N-phenylmaleimide. Subsequently, the first pseudo-order and activation energy (Ea) of the process were determined. The compounds showed in situ influence on AChE inhibition. The derivatives with electron-withdrawing groups exhibited a better effect than those having electron-donating groups. The in silico experiments show that the ligands evaluated established interactions with the CAS site. This suggests that these compounds could be useful for generating better reversible and competitive inhibitors of AChE.

A very low amount of organic dye (Alizarin red S) sensitized TiO2 and it was successfully used to catalyze cascade C(sp3)-H to C(sp2)-H bond formation/cyclization reactions under visible light irradiation. The modified TiO2 photocatalyst efficiently, for the first time, advanced [4+2] cyclization of N,N-dimethylanilines and maleimides to the corresponding tetrahydroquinolines in air atmosphere. The reaction proceeds through α-amino radicals without additional oxidant at ambient temperature to afford products in good to excellent yields.

Synthesis of highly substituted quinolines has been developed based on three-component radical cascade based on visible-light photoredox catalysis. This tandem coupling reaction has been coordinated to proceed with high chemoselectivity based on the differential electronic properties of coupling partners. Subjection of electron-rich β-aminoacrylates with electron-deficient halides and alkenes to the optimized conditions leads to the formation of quinolines in good yields after in situ oxidation of tetrahydroquinolines. Detailed mechanistic studies which reveal an unexpected reaction pathway is described. (Figure presented.).

A convenient and eco-friendly synthesis of various fused N-heterocyclic compounds through catalyst and additive-free 1,3 dipolar cycloadditions of quinolinium imides with olefins, maleimides, and benzynes in excellent yields and diastereoselectivities is reported. The thermally controlled diastereoselective [3 + 2] cycloaddition reaction between quinolinium imides and olefins provided cis-isomers at low temperature and trans-isomers at high temperature. A reaction between quinolinium imides with substituted maleimides gave four-ring-fused N-heterocyclic compounds in high yields as a single diastereomer. The aryne precursors also provided four-ring-fused N,N′-heterocyclic compounds in high yields. The in vitro antiplasmodial activity of selected molecules revealed that this class of molecules possesses potential for ongoing studies against malaria.
