Inhibition of cyclooxygenase is the way of therapeutic activities for anti-inflammatory pharmaceuticals. Serum albumins are the major soluble protein able to bind and transport a variety of exogenous and endogenous ligands, including hydrophobic pharmaceuticals. In this study, a novel N-substituted 1H-pyrrolo[3–c]pyridine-1,3(2H)-diones derivatives were synthesized and biologically evaluated for their inhibitory activity against cyclooxygenases and interactions with BSA. In vitro, COX-1 and COX-2 inhibition assays were performed. Interaction with BSA was studied by fluorescence spectroscopy and circular dichroism measurement. The molecular docking study was conducted to understand the binding interaction of compounds in the active site of cyclooxygenases and BSA. The result of the COX-1 and COX-2 inhibitory studies revealed that all the compounds potentially inhibited COX-1 and COX-2. The IC50 value was found similar to meloxicam. The intrinsic fluorescence of BSA was quenched by tested compounds due to the formation of A/E–BSA complex. The results of the experiment and molecular docking confirmed the main interaction forces between studied compounds and BSA were hydrogen bonding and van der Waals force.

New hexahydropyrimido[1,2- a]azepine derivatives bearing functionalized aryl and heterocyclic moieties were synthesized as anti-inflammatory agents with better safety profiles. All synthesized compounds were assessed in vitro for their COX-1 and COX-2 inhibition activities. The most selective compounds, 2f, 5 and 6, were further evaluated for their in vivo anti-inflammatory activity and PGE2 inhibitory activity. To rationalize their selectivity, molecular docking within COX-1 and COX-2 binding sites was performed. Their physicochemical properties and drug-like nature profile were also calculated. The good activity and selectivity of compounds 2f, 5 and 6 were rationalized using a molecular docking study and supported by in vivo studies. These promising findings are encouraging for performing future investigations of these derivatives.

Isoindoline-1,3-dione derivatives constitute an important group of medicinal substances. In this study, nine new 1H-isoindole-1,3(2H)-dione derivatives and five potential pharmacophores were obtained in good yield (47.24–92.91%). The structure of the new imides was confirmed by the methods of elemental and spectral analysis: FT–IR, H NMR, and MS. Based on the obtained results of ESI–MS the probable path of the molecules decay and the hypothetical structure of the resulting pseudo-molecular ions have been proposed. The physicochemical properties of the new phthalimides were determined on the basis of Lipiński’s rule. The biological properties were determined in terms of their cyclooxygenase (COX) inhibitory activity. Three compounds showed greater inhibition of COX-2, three compounds inhibited COX-1 more strongly than the reference compound meloxicam. From the obtained results, the affinity ratio COX-2/COX-1 was calculated. Two compounds had a value greater than that of meloxicam. All tested compounds showed oxidative or nitrosan stress (ROS and RNS) scavenging activity. The degree of chromatin relaxation outside the cell nucleus was lower than the control after incubation with all test compounds. The newly synthesized phthalimide derivatives showed no cytotoxic activity in the concentration range studied (10–90 µM). A molecular docking study was used to determined interactions inside the active site of cyclooxygenases.

Cyclooxygenase inhibitors as anti-inflammatory agents can be used in chemoprevention. Many in vitro and in vivo studies on human and animal models have explained the mechanisms of the chemopreventive effect of COX inhibitors such as: induction of apoptosis, inhibition of neoplasia, angiogenesis suppression, induction of cell cycle inhibition and inhibition of the expression of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors. Here, biological evaluation of twelve different Schiff base derivatives of N-(2-hydrazine-2-oxoethyl)-4,6-dimethyl-2-sulfanylpyridine- 3-carboxamide are presented. Their in vitro anti-COX-1/COX-2, antioxidant and anticancer activities were studied. The molecular docking study was performed in order to understand the binding interaction of compounds in the active site of cyclooxygenases. Compounds PS18 and PS33 showed a significant inhibitory activity on COX-1 at lower concentrations compared to meloxicam and piroxicam. The IC50 of COX-1 of these compounds was 57.3 µM for PS18 and 51.8 µM for PS33. Out of the tested compounds, the highest therapeutic index was demonstrated by PS18, PS19, PS33, PS40 and PS41. Lower molar concentrations of these compounds inhibit the growth of cancer cells while not inhibiting the healthy cells. Compounds PS18, PS19 and PS33 simultaneously demonstrated a statistically-significant inhibition of COX-1 or COX-2. This opens up the possibility of applying these compounds in the chemoprevention of cancer.

Objective: The reaction of bis(4-amino-4H-1,2,4-triazole-3-thiol) with hydrazonoyl halides and α-halo-ketones gave a new series of bis-1,2,4-triazolo[3,4-b]thiadiazine derivatives. Methods: The structure of the new products was established on the basis of their elemental and spectral data (mass, 1H NMR, 13C NMR and IR) and an alternate method. Results: Several of the synthesized products were subjected to in vitro anticancer screening against human hepatocellular carcinoma (HepG-2) and the results showed that compounds 16, 14 and 12 have promising activities (IC50 value of 24.8±9.1, 28.3±0.5, and 31±2.9μM, respectively) compared with Harmine reference drug (IC50 value of 22.4±1.11 μM). Conclusion: Moreover, molecular docking studies were performed to analyze the binding modes of the discovered hits into the active site of DYRK1A using iGEMDOCK.

Background: Alzheimer is a major cause of dementia in the elderly and acetylcholinesterase inhibitors are used to treat the symptoms of this disease. Recently, chalcones have been reported as potential acetylcholinesterase inhibitors. Materials and methods: In this study, Claisen-Schmidt condensation reaction was applied to synthesize chalcones. Anti-acetylcholinesterase activity of these chalcones was determined by Ellman method. Molecular docking studies on acetylcholinesterase were performed to explain the interaction between these chalcone analogues and acetylcholinesterase active site at molecular level. Results: A total of twenty chalcones were synthesized and determined for in vitro anti-acetylcholinesterase activity. The results indicated that six compounds having IC50 value below 100 µM, three compounds having IC50 value in the range of 100 µM and 300 µM, the rest having IC50 value above 300 µM. Chalcone S17 (4’-amino-2-chlorochalcone) shows the strongest anti-acetylcholinesterase activity in the investigated group with IC50 value of 36.10 µM. In combination with the results of the in vitro anti-acetylcholinesterase activity, molecular docking study is used to explain the interaction between chalcone molecules and their active site, and the structure-activity relationship is abstracted. Conclusions: Our study indicated that the 2’-hydroxychalcones with halogen functional groups on B ring are strong acetylcholinesterase inhibitors. Chalcone S17 (4’-amino-2-chlorochalcone) could be considered as a potential lead compound for the development of new acetylcholinesterase inhibitors.
