Malaria parasites are a leading cause of worldwide mortality from infectious disease. Cysteine protease falcipain-2 (FP-2) and Plasmodium falciparum dihydrofolate reductase (PfDHFR) play vital roles, which are absolutely essential, in the parasite life cycle. In this study, based on the structures of uniform fragments of reported PfDHFR inhibitors and the first-generation dual inhibitors against FP-2 and PfDHFR, we identified a novel series of dual inhibitors through fragments assembly. Lead optimization led to the discovery of 24, which showed high potency against FP-2 (IC50 = 10.0 μM), PfDHFR (IC50 = 84.1 nM), P. falciparum 3D7 (IC50 = 53.1 nM), clinical isolated strains Fab9 (IC50 = 14.2 nM) and GB4 (IC50 = 23.4 nM). The in vivo inhibition assays against P. berghei in 10 days indicated 24 had a more beneficial effect on the growth inhibition of P. berghei than artemisinin and an identical effect with pyrimethamine. Additionally, 24 moderately inhibited the proliferation of chloroquine-resistant P. falciparum Dd2 strain. Collectively, these data revealed that 24 could be an excellent lead compound as FP-2 and PfDHFR dual inhibitor for the treatment of malaria.

In this paper, the design, synthesis and biological evaluation of a set of quinazoline-2,4,6-triamine derivatives (1-9) as trypanocidal, antileishmanial and antiplasmodial agents are explained. The compounds were rationalized basing on docking studies of the dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR from Trypanosoma cruzi, Leishmania major and Plasmodium vivax) and pteridin reductase (PTR from T. cruzi and L. major) structures. All compounds were in vitro screened against both bloodstream trypomastigotes of T. cruzi (NINOA and INC-5 strains) and promatigotes of Leishmania mexicana (MHOM/BZ/61/M379 strain), and also for cytotoxicity using Vero cell line. Against T. cruzi, three compounds (5, 6 and 8) were the most effective showing a better activity profile than nifurtimox and benznidazole (reference drugs). Against L. mexicana, four compounds (5, 6, 8, and 9) exhibited the highest activity, even than glucantime (reference drug). In the cytotoxicity assay, protozoa were more susceptible than Vero cells. In vivo Plasmodium berghei assay (ANKA strain), the compounds 1, 5, 6 and 8 showed a more comparable activity than chloroquine and pyrimethamine (reference drugs) when they were administrated by the oral route. The antiprotozoal activity of these substances, endowed with redox properties, represented a good starting point for a medicinal chemistry program aiming for chemotherapy of Chagas' disease, leishmaniosis and malaria.
