Design,synthesis, in vitro and in silico studies of naproxen derivatives as dual lipoxygenase and α-glucosidase inhibitors

A series of 28 novel naproxen derivatives (4a-f, 5a-f, 6a-d, 7a-f, and 8a-f) have been designed, synthesized, and characterized. The synthesized derivatives were assessed as dual inhibitors for 15-lipoxygenase (LOX) and α-glucosidase enzymes and checked for cytotoxicity and ADME studies. The inhibitory potential of naproxen derivatives for 15- LOX was checked through two different methods, the UV absorbance method and the Chemiluminescence method. The biological activities result revealed that through the UV absorbance method, compound 4f (IC₅₀ 21.31 ± 0.32 µM) was found potent among the series followed by compounds 4e (IC₅₀ 36.53 ± 0.51 µM) and 4d (IC₅₀ 49.62 ± 0.12 µM) against standard drug baicalein (IC₅₀ 22.46 ± 1.32 µM) and quercetin (IC₅₀ 2.34 ± 0.35 µM), while through chemiluminescence method tested compounds showed significant 15-LOX inhibition at the range of IC₅₀ 1.13 ± 0.62 µM ?123.47 ± 0.37 µM. Among these compounds, 4e (IC₅₀ 1.13 ± 0.62 µM), 5b (IC₅₀ 1.19 ± 0.43 µM), 8c (IC₅₀ 1.23 ± 0.35 µM) were found most potent inhibitors against quercetin (IC₅₀ 4.86 ± 0.14 µM), and baicalein (IC₅₀ 2.24 ± 0.13 µM). The chemiluminescence method was found more sensitive than the UV method to identify 15-LOX inhibitors. Interestingly all synthesized compounds showed significant α-glucosidase inhibitory activity (IC₅₀ 1.0 ± 1.13 µM ? 367.2 ± 1.23 µM) even better than the standard drug acarbose (IC₅₀ 375.82 ± 1.76 µM), while compound 6c (IC₅₀ 1.0 ± 1.13 µM) and 7c (IC₅₀ 1.1 ± 1.17 µM) were found most potent compounds among the series even many folds better than the standard drug. The cell viability results showed that all compounds were less toxic, maintained cellular viability at the range of 99.8 ± 1.3% to 63.7 ± 1.5%. ADME and molecular docking studies supported drug-likeness and binding interactions of compounds with the targeted enzymes.

The structure of all the novel synthesized compounds was confirmed through the spectral studies (LC–MS, ¹H‐NMR, ¹³C‐NMR, and FTIR). Comparative evaluation of these compounds revealed that the compound 5b showed maximum inhibitory potential against α‐amylase and α‐glucosidase giving an IC₅₀ value of 0.28 ± 0.01 μM. Furthermore, binding affinities in terms of G score values and hydrogen bond interactions between all the synthesized compounds and the AA residues in the active site of the protein (PDB code: 3TOP) to that of Acarbose (standard drug) were explored with the help of molecular docking studies. Compound 5b was considered as promising candidate of this series.     

Stereochemistry of the Inhibition of δ-Chymotrypsin with Optically Active Bicyclic Organophosphates: 31P-NMR studies

The inhibition of δ-chymotrypsin with optically active, axially and equatorially substituted trans-3-(2,4-dini-trophenoxy)-2,4-dioxa-3λ⁵-phospbubicyclo[4.4.0]decan-3-ones ( = hexahydro-4H-1,3,2-benzodioxaphosphorin 3-oxides) was investigated. Their inhibitory power was determined by kinetic measurements, and the stereochemical course of the reaction of stoichiometric amounts of the enzyme and inhibitor was monitored with ³¹P-NMR spectroscopy at pH 7.8. The irreversible inhibitors show significant enantioselectivity (the (S_p)-enantiomer reacting faster) and yield diastereoisomeric, covalently phosphorylated derivatives of δ-chymotrypsin. ³¹P-NMR Spectroscopic studies of the inhibition by the axially substituted inhibitor revealed for the racemic (±) -2a first a resonance at –4.4 ppm and later, while inhibition proceeded, a second one at –4.5 ppm. The reaction with optically active (+) -2a showed only one signal at –4.4 ppm and its enantiomer (–) -2a only one signal at –4.5 ppm. Using the equatorially substituted racemic epimer (±) -2b , we observed the main resonance at –5.3 ppm and two minor ones at –4.4 and –4.5 ppm. The optically active compound (+) -2b showed two peaks at –4.5 and –5.3 ppm, whereas its antipode (–) -2b revealed two signals at –4.4 and –5.3 ppm. Comparing the ³¹P chemical shifts of the corresponding covalent phosphoserine derivatives 4a (-5.7 ppm, axial) and 4b (-4.5 ppm, equatorial) shows the inhibition with the axial compounds 2a to proceed via neat inversion of the configuration at the P-atom, whereas the equatorial epimers 2b with a higher conformational flexibility seem to follow a different stereochemical pathway which results in both inversion and retention.

These compounds exhibited significant fungicidal activities against S. scleotiorum and P. capsici with EC₅₀ values of 2.56–11.60 µg/mL , and compounds 6e and 7 h exhibited weak inhibition against the spore germination of S. scleotiorum , while the spore germination of P. capsici was strongly inhibited by compound 7 h solution. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM ) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM ) observation indicated that compound 7 h had a significant impact on the structure and function of the hyphal cell wall of P. capsici mycelium.

The biological evaluation of these derivatives against α-glucosidase and urease enzyme depicted some novel derivatives with potent inhibition against the said enzymes. All the derivatives exhibited potent inhibition against α-glucosidase enzymes with IC₅₀ ranging from 25.81 ± 1.63–113.61 ± 1.31 µM against standard drug acarbose (IC₅₀ = 375.82 ± 1.76 µM) while with respect to urease these derivatives possessed inhibitory potential varied between IC₅₀ = 8.04 ± 1.01–58.18 ± 1.03 µM against the standard thiourea (IC₅₀ = 21.0 ± 1.76 µM). The cell viability results revealed that all of the derivatives were found least cytotoxic. Furthermore, molecular docking studies of the most potent derivatives identify number of key features involved in binding interactions between potential inhibitors and the enzyme's active site.

A novel class of 3‐(4‐chlorophenyl)‐2‐(substituted)quinazolin‐4(3H)‐one derivatives were synthesized, and the structure of synthesized compounds was characterized by IR, ¹H NMR, and mass spectroscopy. The newly synthesized compounds ( 4a–g and 6a–g ) were tested for their in vitro cyclooxygenase (COX) inhibition activity.

The synthesized compounds were evaluated for their potential anti‐inflammatory activity as inhibitors of the proinflammatory cytokines IL‐6. Compounds 4d – g showed the highest level of inhibition among all the tested compounds. Thus, our data suggested that these compounds may represent a new class of potent anti‐inflammatory agents.

Abstract

Ketene dithioacetal mediated chemo- and regioselective synthesis of a series of novel 1,3,4,5-tetrasubstituted pyrazole derivatives (4a-l) integrated with a bioactive indole nucleus was achieved by reacting substituted 2-(1-methyl-1H-indole-3-carbonyl)-3,3-bis-(methylthio)-acrylonitrile (2) and substituted phenyl hydrazine hydrochloride (3) in the presence of a catalytic amount of anhydrous K₂CO₃ under reflux conditions. The structures were ascertained by ¹H NMR, NOESY, ¹³C NMR, FT-IR, and HRMS data. In vitro cytotoxicity evaluation of the synthesized compounds against MCF 7 (breast carcinoma) and normal Vero (monkey kidney) cell lines revealed that the compound 5-(5-Bromo-1-methyl-1H-indol-3-yl)-1-(4-cyano-phenyl)-3-methylsulfanyl-1H-pyrazole-4-carbonitrile (4k) showed significant cytotoxicity against MCF 7 (GI₅₀ = 15.6 µM) with low cytotoxicity against normal Vero cell line. Most of the synthesized compounds were also found to possess excellent anti-inflammatory and antioxidant (DPPH, NO, H₂O₂ and SOR) potential.

In vitro cytotoxic effects of the compounds against human oral squamous carcinomas and human normal oral cells were carried out via MTT. The compounds ( 1b-7b ) had Ki values of 36.87 ± 11.62-66.24 ± 2.99 μM (hCA I) and 22.66 ± 1.41-89.95 ± 6.25 μM (hCA II).
