Synthesis and biological evaluation of stilbene derivatives coupled to NO donors as potential antidiabetic agents.

ABSTRACT: The work is focused on the design of drugs that prevent and treat diabetes and its complications. A novel class of stilbene derivatives were prepared by coupling NO donors of alkyl nitrate and were fully characterised by NMR and other techniques. These compounds were tested in vitro activity, including α-glucosidase inhibitory activity, aldose reductase (AR) inhibitory activity and advanced glycation end products (AGEs) formation inhibitory activity. A class of modified compounds could play a significant effect for treatment of diabetic complications. Target compounds 3e and 7c offered a potential drug design concept for the development of therapeutic or preventive agents for diabetes and its complications.

Novel sulfonamide derivatives as multitarget antidiabetic agents: design, synthesis, and biological evaluation.

Project description:A series of new sulfonamide derivatives connected through an imine linker to five or seven membered heterocycles were designed and synthesized. All synthesized derivatives were characterized using a variety of spectroscopic methods, including IR, 1HNMR, and 13CNMR. In vitro α-glucosidase and α-amylase inhibition activities, as well as glucose uptake were assessed for each of the synthesized compounds. Four sulfonamide derivatives namely 3a, 3b, 3h and 6 showed excellent inhibitory potential against α-glucosidase with IC50 values of 19.39, 25.12, 25.57 and 22.02 μM, respectively. They were 1.05- to 1.39-fold more potent than acarbose. Sulfonamide derivatives 3g, 3i and 7 (EC50 values of 1.29, 21.38 and 19.03 μM, respectively) exhibited significant glucose uptake activity that were 1.62- to 27-fold more potent than berberine. Both α-glucosidase protein (PDB: 2QMJ) and α-amylase (PDB: 1XCW) complexed with acarbose were adopted for docking investigations for the most active synthesized compounds. The docked compounds were able to inhabit the same space as the acarviosin ring of acarbose. The docking of the most active compounds showed an analogous binding with the active site of α-glucosidase as acarbose. The superior activity of the synthesized compounds against α-glucosidase enzyme than α-amylase enzyme can be rationalized by the weak interaction with the α-amylase. The physiochemical parameters of all synthesized compounds were aligned with Lipinski's rule of five.

Amino acid ester-coupled caffeoylquinic acid derivatives as potential hypolipidemic agents: synthesis and biological evaluation.

Project description:Pandanus tectorius (L.) Parkins. (PTPs) is rich in caffeoylquinic acids and amino acids, especially some essential amino acids, such as valine, phenylalanine, and so forth. A series of novel amino acid ester-coupled caffeoylquinic acid derivatives have been designed and synthesized. Biological evaluation suggested that some amino acid ester-coupled derivatives exhibited varying degrees of lipid-lowering effects on oleic acid-elicited lipid accumulation in HepG2 liver cells. Particularly, derivatives 6c, 6d, 6e and 6f exhibited comparable potential lipid-lowering effect with the positive control simvastatin and chlorogenic acid. Further studies on the mechanism of 6c, 6d, 6e and 6f revealed that the lipid-lowering effects were related to their regulation of TG levels and mRNA levels of lipometabolic-modulating genes, and merit further investigation.

Synthesis, structural characterizations, in vitro biological evaluation and computational investigations of pyrazole derivatives as potential antidiabetic and antioxidant agents.

Project description:In this study, a two pyrazole derivatives; 2-(5-methyl-1H-pyrazole-3-carbonyl)-N-phenylhydrazine-1-carboxamide (Pyz-1) and 4-amino-5-(5-methyl-1H-pyrazol-3-yl)-4H-1,2,4-triazole-3-thiol (Pyz-2) were synthesized and characterized by 13C-NMR, 1H-NMR, FT-IR, and mass spectrometry. A complete molecular structures optimization, electronic and thermodynamic properties of Pyz-1 and Pyz-2 in gas phase and aqueous solution were predicted by using hybrid B3LYP method with the 6-311++G** basis sets. Pyz-1 and Pyz-2 were evaluated in vitro for their anti-diabetic, antioxidant and xanthine oxidase inhibition activities. For anti-diabetic activity, Pyz-1 and Pyz-2 showed a potent α-glucosidase and α-amylase inhibition with IC50 values of 75.62 ± 0.56, 95.85 ± 0.92 and 119.3 ± 0.75, 120.2 ± 0.68 µM, respectively, compared to Acarbose (IC50(α-glucosidase) = 72.58 ± 0.68 µM, IC50(α-amylase) = 115.6 ± 0.574 µM). In xanthine oxidase assay, Pyz-1 and Pyz-2 exhibited remarkable inhibitory ability with IC50 values 24.32 ± 0.78 and 10.75 ± 0.54 µM, respectively. The result of antioxidant activities showed that the title compounds have considerable antioxidant and radical scavenger abilities. In addition, molecular docking simulation was used to determine the binding modes and energies between the title compounds and α-glucosidase and α-amylase enzymes.

Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of Dipeptide-Based Stilbene Derivatives Bearing a Biheterocyclic Moiety as Potential Fungicides

Project description:The escalating demand for crop production, environmental protection, and food safety warrants the development of new fungicides with greater efficiency, environmental friendliness, and innocuous metabolites to fight against destructive phytopathogens. Herein, we report on the synthesis and antifungal activity of dipeptide-based stilbene derivatives bearing a thiophene-substituted 1,3,4-oxadiazole fragment for the first time. In vitro bioassay indicated that the target compounds had remarkable antifungal potency superior to previously reported counterparts without a dipeptidyl group, of which compound 3c exhibited the highest activity against Botrytis cinerea with EC50 values of 106.1 μg/mL. Moreover, the in vivo protective effect of compound 3c (59.1%) against tomato gray mold was more potent than that of carboxin (42.0%). Preliminary investigations on the mode of action showed that compound 3c induced marked hyphal malformations and increased the membrane permeability of B. cinerea as well as inhibiting mycelial respiration. These promising results suggest that this novel type of molecular framework has great potential to be further developed as alternative fungicides.

Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of Thalidomide Derivatives as Potential Anti-Psoriasis Agents.

Project description:Several thalidomide derivatives were synthesized and evaluated for their anti-inflammatory activity. Introduction of the benzyl group to the parent thalidomide is unfavorable in which 2-(1-benzyl-2,6-dioxopiperidin-3-yl)isoindoline-1,3-dione (4a) was inactivated. However, the inhibitory activities on TNF-α and IL-6 expression in HaCaT cells were improved by the substitution of a chloro- or methoxy- group at the phenyl position of 4a. The IL-6 inhibitory activity decreased in an order of 5c (69.44%) > 4c (48.73%) > 6c (3.19%) indicating the 3-substituted derivative is more active than the 4-substituted counterpart, which in turn is more active than the 2-substituted counterpart. Among them, 2-[1-(3-chlorobenzyl)-2,6-dioxopiperidin-3-yl]isoindoline-1,3-dione (5c) was found to inhibit TNF-α and IL-6 expression in HaCaT cells with a higher potency than thalidomide and no significant cell cytotoxicity was detected at 10 μM. In psoriasis, Compound 5c reduced IL-6, IL-8, IL-1β and IL-24 in imiquimod-stimulated models. Our results indicated that compound 5c is a potential lead of novel anti-psoriasis agents. Structural optimization of compound 5c and its in vivo assay are ongoing.

Synthesis and biological evaluation of esculetin derivatives as potential anti-HBV agents

Project description:Previous in vivo and in vitro studies revealed that esculetin (Fig. 1) has anti-hepatitis B virus (anti-HBV) activity as well as a protective effect on liver damage caused by duck hepatitis B virus. We designed and synthesized a series of esculetin derivatives, introduced side chains containing various amino groups into site 7 of the parent structure, and synthesized C-4 and C-8 substituted derivatives with the goal of investigating their anti-HBV activities. In vitro anti-HBV activity was performed against HepG2.2.15 cells by using Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay(ELISA) kit and cytotoxicity was determined by 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay with lamivudine as the positive control. The results demonstrated that several compounds showed moderate anti-HBV activity, while the introduction of morpholine groups could significantly inhibit the expression of hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg) and the introduction of the 2-methylimidazole group could significantly inhibit the expression of Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg). Among all tested compounds, compound 4a demonstrated the best anti-HBeAg activity (IC50 = 15.8 ± 4.2 μM), while compound 6d demonstrated the best anti-HBsAg activity (IC50 = 21.4 ± 2.8 μM). Compounds 6b and 6c showed moderate anti-HBV activity and HBsAg inhibition. Compounds 4b showed moderate anti-HBV activity and an inhibitory effect on HBeAg. In addition, compounds 4a, 4c, 4d, 6b, 6c and 6d showed improved metabolic stability. This study provides useful guidance for the discovery of anti-HBV drugs, which merits further investigation.

Synthesis and biological evaluation of novel aminoguanidine derivatives as potential antibacterial agents.

Project description:In an effort to identify novel antibacterial agents, we presented two series of aminoguanidine derivatives that were designed by incorporating 1,2,4-triazol moieties. All compounds exhibited strong in vitro antibacterial activity against a variety of testing strains. Compound 5f was identified as a potent antibacterial agent with a minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of 2-8 µg/mL against S. aureus, E. coli, S. epidermidis, B. subtilis, C. albicans, multi-drug resistant Staphylococcus aureus and multi-drug resistant Escherichia coli and low toxicity (Hela > 100 µM). Membrane permeability and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) image studies demonstrated that compound 5f permeabilized bacterial membranes, resulting in irregular cell morphology and the rapid death of bacteria. The results of the present study suggested that aminoguanidine derivatives with 1,2,4-triazol moieties were the intriguing scaffolds for the development of bactericidal agents.

Discovery of Hydrazine Clubbed Thiazoles as Potential Antidiabetic Agents: Synthesis, Biological Evaluation, and Molecular Docking Studies.

Project description:In this study, hydrazine clubbed thiazole derivatives (3a-3j) were obtained by Hantzsch thiazole synthesis and characterized by MS, 1H NMR, and 13C NMR. The inhibitory potentials of the derivatives against diabetes-related enzymes such as aldose reductase (AR), α-glycosidase (α-GLY), and α-amylase (α-AMY) were experimentally determined, and the results were supported by molecular docking. The results showed that the derivatives (3a-3j) displayed varied degree of potential inhibitory activity, with KI values covering the following ranges: 5.47 ± 0.53 to 23.89 ± 1.46 nM for AR and 1.76 ± 0.01 to 24.81 ± 0.15 μM for α-GLY, and with IC50 values 4.94-28.17 μM for α-AMY, as compared to standard epalrestat and acarbose (KI: 34.53 ± 2.52 nM for AR and 23.53 ± 2.72 μM for α-GLY, respectively). The selective activity of these derivatives on antidiabetic enzymes may be important for the treatment of diabetes and may lead to the development of alternative new compounds for this purpose.

Design, synthesis, and biological evaluation of biotinylated colchicine derivatives as potential antitumor agents.

Project description:Chemical drug design based on the biochemical characteristics of cancer cells has become an important strategy for discovering new anti-tumour drugs to improve tumour targeting effects and reduce off-target toxicities. Colchicine is one of the most prominent and historically microtubule-targeting drugs, but its clinical applications are hindered by notorious adverse effects. In this study, we presented a novel tumour-specific conjugate 9 that consists of deacetylcolchicine (Deac), biotin, and a cleavable disulphide linker. 9 was found to exhibit potent anti-tumour activity and exerted higher selectivity between tumour and nontarget cells than Deac. The targeting moiety biotin might enhance the transport capability and selectivity of 9 to tumour cells via biotin receptor-mediated endocytosis. The tubulin polymerisation activity of 9 (with DTT) was close to the parent drug Deac. These preliminary results suggested that 9 is a high potency and reduced toxicity antitumor agent and worthy of further investigation.

Synthesis and biological evaluation of 3-arylcoumarin derivatives as potential anti-diabetic agents.

Project description:A variety of substituted 3-arylcoumarin derivatives were synthesised through microwave radiation heating. The method has characteristics of environmental friendliness, economy, simple separation, and purification process, less by-products and high reaction yield. Those 3-arylcoumarin derivatives were screened for antioxidant, α-glucosidase inhibitory and advanced glycation end-products (AGEs) formation inhibitory. Most compounds exhibited significant antioxidant and AGEs formation inhibitory activities. Anti-diabetic activity studies showed that compounds 11 and 17 were equipotent to the standard drug glibenclamide in vivo. According to the experimental results, the target compound 35 can be used as a lead compound for the development of new anti-diabetic drugs. The whole experiment showed that anti-diabetic activity is prevalent in 3-arylcoumarins, which added a new natural skeleton to the development of anti-diabetic active drugs.
