Background: Neurotic disturbances, anxiety, neurosis-like disorders, and stress situations are widespread. Benzodiazepine tranquillizers have been found to be among the most effective antianxiety drugs. The pharmacological action of benzodiazepines is due to their interaction with the supra-molecular membrane GABA-a-benzodiazepine receptor complex, linked to the Cl-ionophore. Benzodiazepines enhance GABA-ergic transmission and this has led to a study of the role of GABA in anxiety. The search for anxiolytics and anticonvulsive agents has involved glutamate-ergic, 5HT-ergic substances and neuropeptides. However, each of these well-known anxiolytics, anticonvulsants and cognition enhancers (nootropics) has repeatedly been reported to have many adverse side effects, therefore there is an urgent need to search for new drugs able to restore damaged cognitive functions without causing significant adverse reactions. Objective: Considering the relevance of epilepsy diffusion in the world, we have addressed our attention to the discovery of new drugs in this field Thus our aim is the synthesis and study of new compounds with antiepileptic (anticonvulsant) and not only, activity. Methods: For the synthesis of compounds classical organic methods were used and developed. For the evaluation of biological activity some anticonvulsant and psychotropic methods were used. Results: As a result of multistep reactions 26 new, five-membered heterocyclic systems were obtained. PASS prediction of anticonvulsant activity was performed for the whole set of the designed molecules and probability to be active Pa values were ranging from 0.275 to 0.43. The studied compounds exhibit protection against pentylenetetrazole (PTZ) seizures, anti-thiosemicarbazides effect as well as some psychotropic effect. The biological assays evidenced that some of the studied compounds showed a high anticonvulsant activity by antagonism with pentylenetetrazole. The toxicity of compounds is low and they do not induce muscle relaxation in the studied doses. According to the study of psychotropic activity it was found that the selected compounds have an activating behavior and anxiolytic effects on the models of “open field” and “elevated plus maze” (EPM). The data obtained indicate the anxiolytic (anti-anxiety) activity of the derivatives of pyrimidines, especially pronounced in compounds 6n, 6b, and 7c. The studied compounds increase the latent time of first immobilization on the model of “forced swimming” (FST) and exhibit some antidepressant effect similarly to diazepam. Docking studies revealed that compound 6k bound tightly in the active site of GABAA receptor with a value of the scoring function that estimates free energy of binding (ΔG) at −7.95 kcal/mol, while compound 6n showed the best docking score and seems to be dual inhibitor of SERT transporter as well as 5-HT1A receptor. Conclusions: Тhe selected compounds have an anticonvulsant, activating behavior and anxiolytic effects, at the same time exhibit some antidepressant effect. 相似文献

We provide a new upper bound for the α-domination number in terms of a parameter α, 0 < α ≤ 1, and graph vertex degrees. This
result generalises the well-known Caro-Roditty bound for the domination number of a graph. The same probabilistic construction
is used to generalise another well-known upper bound for the classical domination in graphs. Using a different probabilistic
construction, we prove similar upper bounds for the α-rate domination number, which combines the concepts of α-domination
and k-tuple domination. 相似文献

For a given graph consider a pair of disjoint matchings the union of which contains as many edges as possible. Furthermore, consider the ratio of the cardinalities of a maximum matching and the largest matching in those pairs. It is known that for any graph is the tight upper bound for this ratio. We characterize the class of graphs for which it is precisely . Our characterization implies that these graphs contain a spanning subgraph, every connected component of which is the minimal graph of this class. 相似文献

In this study, the mechanism by which second-sphere residues modulate the structural and electronic properties of substrate-analogue complexes of the Fe-dependent superoxide dismutase (FeSOD) has been explored. Both spectroscopic and computational methods were used to investigate the azide (N3(-)) adducts of Fe(3+)SOD (N3-Fe(3+)SOD) and its Q69E mutant, as well as Fe(3+)-substituted MnSOD (N3-Fe(3+)(Mn)SOD) and its Y34F mutant. Electronic absorption, circular dichroism, and magnetic circular dichroism spectroscopic data reveal that the energy of the dominant N3(-)-->Fe(3+) ligand-to-metal charge transfer (LMCT) transition decreases in the order N3-Fe(3+)(Mn)SOD>N3-Fe(3+)SOD>Q69E N3-Fe(3+)SOD. Intriguingly, the LMCT transition energies correlate almost linearly with the Fe(3+/2+) reduction potentials of the corresponding Fe(3+)-bound SOD species in the absence of azide, which span a range of approximately 1 V (see the preceding paper). To explore the origin of this correlation, combined quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics (QM/MM) geometry optimizations were performed on complete enzyme models. The INDO/S-CI computed electronic transition energies satisfactorily reproduce the experimental trend in LMCT transition energies, indicating that the QM/MM optimized active-site models are reasonable. Density functional theory calculations on these experimentally validated active-site models reveal that the differences in spectral and electronic properties among the four N 3(-) adducts arise primarily from differences in the hydrogen-bond network involving the conserved second-sphere Gln (mutated to Glu in Q69E FeSOD) and the solvent ligand. The implications of our findings with respect to the mechanism by which the second-coordination sphere modulates substrate-analogue binding as well as the catalytic properties of FeSOD are discussed. 相似文献

The reactivity of 4-cyano-1,3-dichloro-7-methyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-2,7-naphthyridine 1 with nucleophiles has been investigated. The different reactivity of the two chlorine atoms in 1 enabled us to obtain, by using different experimental conditions, the mono- and the di-amino-substituted derivatives of 5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-2,7-naphthyridines 2 and 3, respectively. Thus, by carrying out the reaction in a low-boiling solvent and in the presence of a quasi-stoichiometric amount of amine, the mono-substituted derivatives 2 were obtained, which under harsher conditions was transformed into the diamino derivatives 3 when using an excess of amine. During the synthesis of some diamino derivatives 3 a new rearrangement was observed with formation of 1-oxo derivatives of 3,4-dihydro-2,7-naphthyridines 4. The structure of the unexpected compounds 4 was confirmed by X-ray crystallography. A mechanism for the rearrangement is tentatively suggested. 相似文献
