Inhibition of the soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH) is a promising new therapeutic approach in the treatment of inflammation. Driven by the in-house database product lead 1, a hybridization strategy was utilized for the design of a series of novel benzo [d]thiazol derivatives. To our delight, D016, a byproduct of compound 9, was obtained with an extraordinarily low IC50 value of 0.1 nM but poor physical and chemical properties. After removal of a non-essential urea moiety or replacement of the urea group by an amide group, compounds 15a, 17p, and 18d were identified as promising sEH inhibitors, and their molecular binding modes to sEH were constructed. Furthermore, compounds 15a and 18d exhibited more effective in vivo anti-inflammatory effect than t-AUCB in carrageenan-induced mouse paw edema. Compound 15a also showed moderate metabolic stability with a half-time of 34.7 min. Although 18d was unstable in rat liver microsomes, it might be a “prodrug”. In conclusion, this study could provide valuable insights into discovery of new sEH inhibitors, and compounds 15a and 18d were worthy of further development as potential drug candidates to treat inflammation.

Ryanodine receptors (RyRs) are important ligand-gated Ca2+ channels; their excessive activation leads to Ca2+ leakage in the sarcoplasmic reticulum that may cause neurological diseases. In this study, three series of novel potent RyR1 inhibitors based on dantrolene and bearing semicarbazone and imidazolyl moieties were designed and synthesized, and their biological activity was evaluated. Using a single-cell calcium imaging method, the calcium overload inhibitory activities of 26 target compounds were tested in the R614C cell line, using dantrolene as a positive control. The preliminary investigation showed that compound 12a suppressed Ca2+ release as evidenced by store overload-induced Ca2+release (SOICR) (31.5 ± 0.1%, 77.2 ± 0.1%, 93.7 ± 0.2%) at 0.1 μM, 3 μM and 10 μM, respectively. Docking simulation results showed that compound 12a could bind at the active site of the RyR1 protein. The Morris water-maze test showed that compound 12a significantly improved the cognitive behavior of AD-model mice. Further studies on the structural optimization of this series of derivatives are currently underway in our laboratory.

Activation of AMPK emerges as a potential therapeutic approach to metabolic diseases. AdipoRon is claimed to be an adiponectin receptor agonist that activates AMPK through adiponectin receptor 1 (AdipoR1). However, AdipoRon also exhibits moderate inhibition of mitochondrial complex I, leading to increased risk of lactic acidosis. In order to find novel AdipoRon analogues that activate AMPK without inhibition of complex I, 27 analogues of AdipoRon were designed, synthesized and biologically evaluated. As results, benzyloxy arylamide B10 was identified as a potent AMPK activator without inhibition of complex I. B10 dose-dependently improved glucose tolerance in normal mice, and significantly lowered fasting blood glucose level and ameliorated insulin resistance in db/db diabetic mice. More importantly, unlike the pan-AMPK activator MK-8722, B10 did not cause cardiac hypertrophy, probably owing to its selective activation of AMPK in the muscle tissue but not in the heart tissue. Together, B10 represents a novel class of AMPK activators with promising therapeutic potential against metabolic disease.

A series of new sorafenib derivatives was designed and synthesized. The antiproliferative activity of the synthesized compounds against human lung cancer cell (A549), human pancreatic cancer cell (PC-3), human leukemia cell (K562), and human hepatoma cell (SMMC-7721) was evaluated by MTT assay. The results revealed that several compounds displayed more significant antitumor activities than commercial anticancer agent sorafenib against SMMC-7721. In addition, compounds 7a, 7g, 7l, 7m, and 7p represented obvious growth inhibition with IC50 values of 1-9 μM against four cancer cell lines, demonstrating more predominant activities against cancer cells as compared to sorafenib. Furthermore, some structure-activity relationships have also been established. Compounds containing indole and benzene ring substituted by halogen showed better activity than sorafenib. Wound healing assay suggested that cells would be targeted on their migratory capacity by 7g, potentially affecting the migration activity of these tumors. The effects of A549 and PC-3 cell apoptosis induced by compound 7g were significantly increased compared with sorafenib. Importantly, the result of western blot assay showed that 7g inhibited cell growth by suppressing the activity of EGFR, especially the expression of p-EGFR (Tyr1068).

We have discovered a spontaneous reaction of N,O-diaryl carbamates to afford symmetrical N,N′-diarylureas. Optimization of the conditions indicated that N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) was the best solvent and triethylamine (Et3N) was the best additive for this transformation. The reaction requires the presence of aryl groups on the nitrogen and oxygen atoms of carbamates. Substrates bearing an electron-donating methoxy group on either of the aryl groups reacted slowly under these conditions.

A novel series of N-aryl-3,4-dihydro-1′H-spiro[chromene-2,4′- piperidine]-1′-carboxamides was identified as transient receptor potential melastatin 8 (TRPM8) channel blockers through analogue-based rational design, synthesis and screening. Details of the synthesis, effect of aryl groups and their substituents on in-vitro potency were studied. The effects of selected functional groups on the 4-position of the chromene ring were also studied, which showed interesting results. The 4-hydroxy derivatives showed excellent potency and selectivity. Optical resolution and screening of alcohols revealed that (R)-(-)-isomers were in general more potent than the corresponding (S)-(+)-isomers. The isomer (R)-(-)-10e (IC50: 8.9 nM) showed a good pharmacokinetic profile upon oral dosing at 10 mg/kg in Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats. The compound (R)-(-)-10e also showed excellent efficacy in relevant rodent models of neuropathic pain.

The kinetics of the reactions of 4-methylphenyl, phenyl, and 4-chlorophenyl 2,4,6-trinitrophenyl carbonates (1, 2, and 3, respectively) with a series of anilines and secondary alicyclic (SA) amines has been carried out spectrophotometrically in 44 wt% ethanol-water, at 25.0°C, ionic strength 0.2 M. The BrAnsted plots (statistically corrected) for the reactions of carbonates 1-3 with anilines and SA amines were linear with slopes (βN) in the range of 0.69-0.78 and 0.45-0.48, respectively, attributed to a concerted mechanism. The negative values found for the sensitivity of log kN to the basicity of the nonleaving (βnlg) and leaving (βlg) groups are discussed. Anilines are more reactive than isobasic SA amines, probably because of the greater steric hindrance offered by the latter.

A series of novel artemisinin derivatives were synthesized from artemisinin and different anilines. All compounds were obtained as β-isomers. The target compounds were evaluated for inhibition activity against Plasmodium falciparum falcipain-2 in vitro, and most of them exhibited potent inhibition in the low micromolar range and proved to be new types of falcipain-2 inhibitors.
