Abstract: The present research paper reports the convenient synthesis, successful characterization, in vitro antibacterial, antifungal, antioxidant potency and biocompatibility of N-acyl-morpholine-4-carbothioamides (5a–5j). The biocompatible derivatives were found to be highly active against the tested bacterial and fungal strains. Moreover, some of the screened N-acyl-morpholine-4-carbothioamides exhibited excellent antioxidant potential. Docking simulation provided additional information about possibilities of their inhibitory potential against RNA. It has been predicted by in silico investigation of the binding pattern that compounds 5a and 5j can serve as the potential surrogate for design of novel and potent antibacterial agents. The results for the in vitro bioassays were promising with the identification of compounds 5a and 5j as the lead and selective candidate for RNA inhibition. Results of the docking computations further ascertained the inhibitory potential of compound 5a. Based on the in silico studies, it can be suggested that compounds 5a and 5j can serve as a structural model for the design of antibacterial agents with better inhibitory potential. Graphic abstract: Binding mode of compound 5j inside the active site of RNA in 3D space. 5j displayed highest antibacterial potential than the reference drug ampicillin with ZOI 10.50?mm against Staphylococcus aureus. 5j also displayed highest antifungal potential than the reference drug amphotericin B with ZOI 18.20?mm against Fusarium solani.[Figure not available: see fulltext.].

We describe the synthesis of a series of novel 1-aroyl/acyl-3-(3-aminosulfonylphenyl) thioureas (4a–k) acting as human carbonic anhydrase (hCA, EC 4.2.1.1) inhibitors. Reaction of alkyl/aryl isothiocyanates with 3-aminobenzenesulfonamide afforded a series of the title compounds incorporating a variety of short as well as highly lipophilic long tails. The newly synthesized sulfonamides were evaluated against 4 physiologically relevant CA isoforms (hCA I, II, IV, and IX). Several compounds showed interesting inhibitory activity. The tumor-associated hCA IX was the most sensitive isoform to inhibition with these compounds, with KIs in the range of 21.5–44.0 nM and selectivity ratios over the major cytosolic isoform hCA II in the range of 3.35–37.3. The sulfonamides incorporating the phenylacetylthioureido and pentadecanoylthioureido moieties were the most hCA IX-selective inhibitors detected in this work, making them of interest for further investigations.

Serine racemase (SRR) is an enzyme that produces D-serine from L-serine. D-Serine acts as an endogenous coagonist of NMDA-type glutamate receptors (NMDARs), which regulate many physiological functions. Over-activation of NMDARs induces excitotoxicity, which is observed in many neurodegenerative disorders and epilepsy states. In our previous works on the generation of SRR gene knockout (Srr-KO) mice and its protective effects against NMDA- and Aβ peptide-induced neurodegeneration, we hypothesized that the regulation of NMDARs’ over-activation by inhibition of SRR activity is one such therapeutic strategy to combat these disease states. In the previous study, we performed in silico screening to identify four compounds with inhibitory activities against recombinant SRR. Here, we synthesized 21 derivatives of candidate 1, one of four hit compounds, and performed screening by in vitro evaluations. The derivative 13J showed a significantly lower IC50 value in vitro, and suppressed neuronal over-activation in vivo.

Thiourea derivatives have drawn much attention for their latent capacities of biological activities. In this study, we designed acylthiourea compounds as polo-like kinase 1 (Plk1) polo-box domain (PBD) inhibitors. A series of acylthiourea derivatives without pan assay interference structure (PAINS) were synthesized. Four compounds with halogen substituents exhibited binding affinities to Plk1 PBD in low micromole range. The most potent compound (3v) showed selectivity over other subtypes of Plk PBDs and inhibited the kinase activity of full-length Plk1.

Human African trypanosomiasis (HAT) is one of the most neglected diseases in the tropic regions, which is fatal if not treated in time. There is an urgent need for new therapeutics, especially those in new chemical classes. Leucyl-tRNA synthetase (LeuRS) has been paid much attention as a recently clinically validated antimicrobial target. Our group has previously reported T. brucei LeuRS (TbLeuRS) inhibitors, including benzoxaboroles targeting the editing site and pyrrolinones targeting the synthetic site. Here we report the discovery of N-(4-sulfamoylphenyl)thioureas as a new class of TbLeuRS inhibitors. The R1 and R2 groups, reminiscent of the leucyl and adenyl regions of aa-AMP and aa-AMS, were optimized to result in a significant 13-fold increase of inhibitory activity (compound 19, IC 50 = 13.7 μM). Aided by ligand-protein docking, the 1,3-substitution at the central phenyl ring was predicted and proved to give significantly improved activity (59, IC50 = 1.1 μM). This work provided a new scaffold for the exploration of novel inhibitors against TbLeuRS, which may become potential therapeutics for the treatment of HAT.
