Design, synthesis, biological evaluation, QSAR analysis and molecular modelling of new thiazol-benzimidazoles as EGFR inhibitors

Heterocyclic rings such as thiazole and benzimidazole are considered as privileged structures, since they constitute several FDA-approved drugs for cancer treatment. In this work, a new set of 2-(2-(substituted) hydrazinyl)-4-(1-methyl-1H-benzo[d]imidazol-2-yl) thiazoles 4a-q were designed as epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) inhibitors and synthesized using concise synthetic methods. The new target compounds have been evaluated in vitro for their suppression activity against EGFR TK. Compounds 4n, 4h, 4i, 4a and 4d exhibited significant potency in comparison with erlotinib which served as a reference drug (IC50, 71.67–152.59 nM; IC50 erlotinib, 152.59 nM). Furthermore, MTT assay revealed that compounds 4j, 4a, 4f, 4h, 4n produced the most promising cytotoxic potency against the human breast cancer cell line (MCF-7) (IC50; 5.96–11.91 μM; IC50 erlotinib; 4.15 μM). Compound 4a showed promising activity as EGFR TK inhibitor as well as anti-breast cancer agent. In addition, 4a induced apoptotic effect and cell cycle arrest at G2/M phase preventing the mitotic cycle in MCF-7 cells. Moreover, 4a upregulated the oncogenic parameters; caspase-3, p53, Bax/Bcl-2 as well as it inhibited the level of PARP-1 enzyme. QSAR study was carried out for the new derivatives and it revealed the goodness of the models. Furthermore, molecular docking studies represented the binding modes of the promising compounds in the active pocket of EGFR.

Design, synthesis and biochemical evaluation of novel multi-target inhibitors as potential anti-Parkinson agents

New 4-(3-nitrophenyl)thiazol-2-ylhydrazone derivatives are proposed as dual-target-directed monoamine oxidase B (MAO-B) and acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitors, as well as antioxidant agents, for the treatment of neurodegenerative disorders such as Parkinson's disease. Rational molecular design, target recognition and predicted pharmacokinetic properties have been evaluated by means of molecular modelling. Based on these properties, compounds were synthesized and evaluated in vitro as MAO-B and AChE inhibitors, and compared to the activities at their corresponding isozymes, monoamine oxidase A (MAO-A) and butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE), respectively. Anti-oxidant properties, potentially useful in the treatment of neurodegenerative disorders, have been also investigated in vitro. Among the evaluated compounds, three inhibitors may be considered as promising dual inhibitors of MAO-B and AChE, in vitro. MAO-B inhibition was also shown to be competitive and reversible for compound 19.

Synthesis, biological evaluation and quantitative structure-active relationships of 1,3-thiazolidin-4-one derivatives. A promising chemical scaffold endowed with high antifungal potency and low cytotoxicity

With reference to recent studies reporting on the various biological properties of the thiazolidinone scaffold, we synthesized more than a hundred compounds characterized by a 1,3-thiazolidin-4-one nucleus derivatised at the C2 with a hydrazine bridge linked to (cyclo)aliphatic or hetero(aryl) moieties, and their N-benzylated derivatives. These molecules were assayed as potential anti-Candida agents and they were shown to possess comparable, and in some cases higher biological activity than well-established topical and systemic antimycotic drugs (i.e. clotrimazole, fluconazole, ketoconazole, miconazole, tioconazole, amphotericin B). Compounds endowed with the lowest MICs underwent further testing in order to assess their cytotoxic effect (CC50) on Hep2 cells, which demonstrated their relative safety. Finally, QSAR and 3-D QSAR models were used to predict putative chemical modifications of the 1,3-thiazolidin-4-one scaffold in order to design new and potential more active compounds against Candida spp.

Anti-Candida activity and cytotoxicity of a large library of new N-substituted-1,3-thiazolidin-4-one derivatives

On the basis of the recent findings about the biological properties of thiazolidinones and taking into account the encouraging results about the antifungal activity of some (thiazol-2-yl)hydrazines, new N-substituted heterocyclic derivatives were designed combining the thiazolidinone nucleus with the hydrazonic portion. In details, 1,3-thiazolidin-4-ones bearing (cyclo)aliphatic or (hetero)aromatic moieties linked to the N1-hydrazine at C2 were synthesized and classified into three series according to the aromatic or bicyclic rings connected to the lactam nitrogen of the thiazolidinone. These molecules were assayed for their anti-Candida effects in reference to the biological activity of the conventional topic (clotrimazole, miconazole, tioconazole) and systemic drugs (fluconazole, ketoconazole, amphotericin B). Finally, we investigated the selectivity against fungal cells by testing the compounds endowed with the best MICs on Hep2 cells in order to assess their cell toxicity (CC50) and we noticed that two derivatives were less cytotoxic than the reference drug clotrimazole. Moreover, a preliminary molecular modelling approach has been performed against lanosterol 14-α demethylase (CYP51A1) to rationalize the activity of the tested compounds and to specify the target protein or enzyme.

Novel 1,3-thiazolidin-4-one derivatives as promising anti- Candida agents endowed with anti-oxidant and chelating properties

Pursuing our recent outcomes regarding the antifungal activity of N-substituted 1,3-thiazolidin-4-ones, we synthesized thirty-six new derivatives introducing aliphatic, cycloaliphatic and heteroaromatic moieties at N1-hydrazine connected with C2 position of the thiazolidinone nucleus and functionalizing the lactam nitrogen with differently substituted (NO2, NH2, Cl and F) benzyl groups. These compounds were tested to evaluate their minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) against several clinical Candida spp. with respect to topical and systemic reference drugs (clotrimazole, fluconazole, ketoconazole, miconazole, tioconazole, amphotericin B). Moreover, anti-oxidant properties were also evaluated by using different protocols including free radical scavenging (DPPH and ABTS), reducing power (CUPRAC and FRAP), metal chelating and phosphomolybdenum assays. Moreover, for the most active derivatives we assessed the toxicity (CC50) against Hep2 human cells in order to characterize them as multi-target agents for fungal infections.

Efficient "on water" green route heterocyclization of thiosemicarbazones with DMAD

A simple, efficient, and eco-friendly procedure for the synthesis of thiazolidin-4-one derivatives in water from cyclocondensation reaction of thiosemicarbazone derivatives and dimethylacetylene dicarboxylate (DMAD) in good yield is reported. The regiochemistry of the cyclized products is established by elemental analysis, IR, NMR, and mass spectral data. A single crystal X-ray diffraction study of a representative compound, 3f, is reported.

Thiazole compounds with activity against Cryptococcus gattii and Cryptococcus neoformans in vitro

Human cryptococcosis can occur as a primary or opportunistic infection and develop as an acute, subacute, or chronic, systemic infection involving different host organs. We evaluated the antifungal activity of thirteen compounds against Cryptococcus gattii and Cryptococcus neoformans in vitro, by assessing the toxicity of the compounds showing the greatest antifungal activity in VERO cells and murine macrophages. From these results, four compounds were considered promising for further studies because they displayed low cytotoxicity and significant antifungal activity. The heterocyclic compounds 1b, 1c, 1d, and 1m have antifungal activity levels between that of amphotericin B and fluconazole in vitro. The death curve of Cryptococcus spp. treated with these four compounds was similar to the curve obtained for amphotericin B, in that we observed a significant reduction in cell viability within the first 24 h of treatment. Additionally, we found that there was no effect when these compounds were combined with amphotericin and fluconazole, except for 1c, which antagonized the effect of amphotericin B against C. gattii, also reflected in the reduction of the post-antifungal effect (PAFE); however, this interaction did not alter the ergosterol content. The results shown in this paper reveal the discovery of novel thiazole compounds, which are easy to synthesize, and with potentially exhibit antifungal activity, and display low cytotoxicity in normal mammalian cells. These compounds can be used as prototypes for the design of new antifungal drugs against C. gattii and C. neoformans.

Synthesis and pharmacological screening of a large library of 1,3,4-thiadiazolines as innovative therapeutic tools for the treatment of prostate cancer and melanoma

Antimitotic agents are widely used in cancer chemotherapy but the numerous side effects and the onset of resistance limit their clinical efficacy. Therefore, with the purpose of discovering more selective and efficient anticancer agents to be administered alone or in combination with traditional drugs, we synthesized a large library of 1,3,4-thiadiazoline analogues, maintaining the pharmacophoric structure of an antiproliferative compound known as K858: this is a new inhibitor of kinesin Eg5, able to induce the mitotic arrest in colorectal cancer cells and in xenograft ovarian cancer cells. We screened 103 compounds to assess their antiproliferative activity on PC3 prostate cancer cell line. Two derivatives, compounds 32 (corresponding to K858) and 33, have shown to be the most effective against prostate tumor cells and also towards two melanoma cell lines (SK-MEL-5 and SK-MEL-28) at low micromolar concentrations, confirming the pharmacological activity of this scaffold and revealing the potential role of 1,3,4-thiadiazolines in the management of cancer.
