Zika virus (ZIKV) has become a public health concern worldwide due to its association with congenital abnormalities and neurological diseases. To date, no effective vaccines or antiviral drugs have been approved for the treatment of ZIKV infection, and ne

Importance of extracellular nucleotides is widely understood. These nucleotides act as ligand for P2X and P2Y receptors and modulate a variety of biological functions. However, their extracellular concentration is maintained by a chain of enzymes termed as ecto-nucleotidases. Amongst them, nucleoside triphosphate diphosphohydrolases (NTPDases) is an important enzyme family responsible for the dephosphorylation of these nucleotides. Overexpression of NTPDases leads to many pathological conditions such as cancer and thrombosis. So far, only a few NTPDase inhibitors have been reported. Considering this scarcity of (NTPDase) inhibitors, a number of thiadiazole amide derivatives were synthesized and screened against human (h)-NTPDases. Several compounds showed promising inhibitory activity; compound 5a (IC50 (μM); 0.05 ± 0.008) and 5g (IC50 (μM); 0.04 ± 0.006) appeared to be the most distinguished molecules corresponding to h-NTPDase1 and -2. However, h-NTPDase3 was the least susceptible isozyme and only three compounds (5d, 5e, 5j) strongly inhibited h-NTPDase3. Interestingly, compound 5e was recognized as the most active compound that showed dual inhibition against h-NTPDase3 as well as against h-NTPDase8. For better comprehension of binding mode of these inhibitors, most potent inhibitors were docked with their respective isozyme.

Being the important organic reaction intermediates and biological scaffolds, a series of 2-alkyl/aralkyl/heterocyclyl sulfanyl-5-amino/methyl-1,3,4-thiadiazoles have been synthesized by suitable synthetic route and characterized by analytical and spectral data. The evaluation of these compounds for their bioefficacy against two phyto-pathogenic fungi revealed their fungicidal potency against Rhizoctonia bataticola (ED50 values, 3.9–300.4 μg/mL) and Rhizoctonia solani (ED50 values, 4.2–228.5 μg/mL). To further augment their fungicidal efficacy, the potent five fungicidal compounds were nano-sized. The protocol for preparing 1,3,4-thiadiazole based nano-fungicide employing polyethylene glycol was developed and standardized. Characterization of nano-forms of 1,3,4-thiadiazole derivatives by particle size analyzer and electron microscopy (TEM) techniques confirmed the 100 nm average particle sizes of all nano-fungicides. The 2–4 times higher fungicidal activity was observed with nano-forms than the corresponding conventional sized 1,3,4-thiadiazole derivatives against phytopathogenic fungi, namely, Rhizoctonia solani and R. bataticola.
