Anti-Alzheimer activity of new coumarin-based derivatives targeting acetylcholinesterase inhibition.

ABSTRACT: New 2-oxo-chromene-7-oxymethylene acetohydrazide derivatives 4a-d were designed and synthesized with a variety of bioactive chemical fragments. The newly synthesized compounds were evaluated as acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitors and antioxidant agents in comparison to donepezil and ascorbic acid, respectively. Compound 4c exhibited a promising inhibitory impact with an IC₅₀ value of 0.802 μM and DPPH scavenging activity of 57.14 ± 2.77%. Furthermore, biochemical and haematological studies revealed that compound 4c had no effect on the blood profile, hepatic enzyme levels (AST, ALT, and ALP), or total urea in 4c-treated rats compared to the controls. Moreover, the histopathological studies of 4c-treated rats revealed the normal architecture of the hepatic lobules and renal parenchyma, as well as no histopathological damage in the examined hepatic, kidney, heart, and brain tissues. In addition, an in vivo study investigated the amelioration in the cognitive function of AD-rats treated with 4c through the T-maze and beam balance behavioural tests. Also, 4c detectably ameliorated MDA and GSH, reaching 90.64 and 27.17%, respectively, in comparison to the standard drug (90.64% and 35.03% for MDA and GSH, respectively). The molecular docking study exhibited a good fitting of compound 4c in the active site of the AChE enzyme and a promising safety profile. Compound 4c exhibited a promising anti-Alzheimer's disease efficiency compared to the standard drug donepezil.

Project description:Alzheimer's disease (AD) leads to gradual memory loss including other compromised cognitive abilities. Acetylcholinesterase (AChE), an important biochemical enzyme from the cholinesterase (ChE) family, is recognized as primary pharmacological target for treating AD. Currently marketed drugs for AD treatment are primarily AChE inhibitors and coumarin derivatives comprising a wide variety of pharmacological activities have proved their efficacy towards AChE inhibition. Ensaculin (KA-672 HCl), a compound that belong to the coumarin family, is a clinical trial candidate for AD treatment. Therefore, a ligand library was prepared with 60 reported coumarin derivatives for field-based 3D-QSAR and pharmacophore modelling. The field-based 3D-QSAR model obtained at partial least square (PLS) factor 7, was the best validated model that predicted activity closer to original activity for each ligand introduced. The contour maps demonstrated spatial distribution of favourable and unfavorable steric, hydrophobic, electrostatic and H-bond donor and acceptor contours around coumarin nucleus. The best pharmacophore model, ADHRR_1 exhibited five essential pharmacophoric features of four different traits for optimum AChE inhibition. Virtual screening through ADHRR_1 accompanied with molecular docking and MM/GBSA identified 10 HITs from a 4,00,000 coumarin derivatives from PubChem database. HITs comprised docking scores ranging from -12.096 kcal/mol to -8.271 kcal/mol and compared with the reference drug Donepezil (-8.271 kcal/mol). ADME properties analysis led into detecting two leads (HIT 1 and HIT 2) among these 10 HITs. Molecular Dynamics Simulation indicated thermodynamic stability of the complex of lead compounds with AChE protein. Finally, thorough survey of the experimental results from 3D-QSAR modelling, pharmacophore modelling and molecular docking interactions led us to develop the lead formula I for future advancements in treating AD through AChE inhibitors.
