A series of 1‐acyl‐2‐pyrazoline derivatives derived from nonsteroidal anti‐inflammatory drugs was designed as potential anticancer agents. Synthesis of these compounds was carried out via the condensation reaction of chalcones and acid hydrazides under heating. The methodology did not require the use of any costly reagents or catalysts, and the acid hydrazide reactants were readily prepared from mefenamic acid or ibuprofen. A variety of 1‐acyl‐2‐pyrazolines was prepared in good to excellent yields. An N‐allylidene benzohydrazide intermediate was isolated during the reaction optimization study, the structure of which was confirmed unambiguously by X‐ray single crystal data. A range of N‐allylidene benzohydrazides were also prepared in good yields. Some of the compounds synthesized showed promising cytotoxic activities when tested against HCT‐15 human colon cancer cell line in vitro. 相似文献

Recognition of furanosides (five‐membered ring sugars) by proteins plays important roles in host–pathogen interactions. In comparison to their six‐membered ring counterparts (pyranosides), detailed studies of the molecular motifs involved in the recognition of furanosides by proteins are scarce. Here the first in‐depth molecular characterization of a furanoside–protein interaction system, between an antibody (CS‐35) and cell wall polysaccharides of mycobacteria, including the organism responsible for tuberculosis is reported. The approach was centered on the generation of the single chain variable fragment of CS‐35 and a rational library of its mutants. Investigating the interaction from various aspects revealed the structural motifs that govern the interaction, as well as the relative contribution of molecular forces involved in the recognition. The specificity of the recognition was shown to originate mainly from multiple CH–π interactions and, to a lesser degree, hydrogen bonds formed in critical distances and geometries. 相似文献

Testicular oxidative stress is one of the most common factors underlying male infertility. Welted thistle, Carduus crispus Linn., and its bioactive principles are attracting scientific interest in treating male reproductive dysfunctions. Here, the protective effects of apigenin isolated from C. crispus against oxidative damage induced by hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and dysregulation in spermatogenesis associated parameters in testicular sperm cells was investigated. Cell viabilities, ROS scavenging effects, and spermatogenic associated molecular expressions were measured by MTT, DCF-DA, Western blotting and real-time RT-PCR, respectively. A single peak with 100% purity of apigenin was obtained in HPLC conditions. Apigenin treated alone (2.5, 5, 10 and 20 µM) did not exhibit cytotoxicity, but inhibited the H2O2-induced cellular damage and elevated ROS levels significantly (p < 0.05 at 5, 10 and 20 µM) and dose-dependently. Further, H2O2-induced down-regulation of antioxidant (glutathione S-transferases m5, glutathione peroxidase 4, and peroxiredoxin 3) and spermatogenesis-associated (nectin-2 and phosphorylated-cAMP response element-binding protein) molecular expression in GC-2spd cells were attenuated by apigenin at both protein and mRNA levels (p < 0.05). In conclusion, our study showed that apigenin isolated from C. crispus might be an effective agent that can protect ROS-induced testicular dysfunctions. 相似文献

An operationally simple, mild and single-step method for the direct and metal-free synthesis of aryl carboxylate esters is described under a solvent free condition. The reaction of phenols including 2-naphthol (or 1-naphthol) with a variety of carboxylic acids in the presence of TFAA and 85% H3PO4 provided a range of aryl carboxylate esters in good yields within few minutes. 相似文献

Sulfoxonium ylides are the viable alternatives for diazo compounds as carbene precursors. Unlike diazo compounds, these are bench-stable and crystalline solids. However, the existing methods for the synthesis of sulfoxonium ylides have disadvantages related to the yields, substrate scope, and usage of expensive catalysts. Therefore, it is necessary to develop efficient and competitive protocols for the preparation of sulfoxonium ylides. In this study, we developed an economically affordable protocol for the synthesis of sulfoxonium ylides from diazo compounds using copper powder as a catalyst. This protocol leads to the efficient multigram-scale synthesis of a wide range of sulfoxonium ylides in good yields. Further, we demonstrated scandium triflate–catalyzed carbene insertion into the N−H bond from sulfoxonium ylide. A variety of anilines and sulfoxonium ylides with various functional groups reacted well and produced the corresponding α-amino esters in good yields. All the synthesized compounds were characterized using various standard spectroscopic and analytical techniques. We also used computational methods to understand the electronic structure of all the sulfoxonium ylides using geometry optimization, frequency calculation, molecular orbital and natural bond orbital analysis, and energy decomposition analysis. Our computational results revealed that the interaction between carbene and dimethyl sulfoxide is covalent in nature and stable enough to handle in the absence of any catalyst. 相似文献

Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic inflammatory skin disease caused by the dysregulation of cytokines and other immune mediators. JAK/STAT is a classical signal transduction pathway involved in various biological processes, and its dysregulation contributes to the key aspects of AD pathogenesis. Suppressor of cytokine signaling (SOCS) proteins negatively regulate the immune-related inflammatory responses mediated by the JAK/STAT pathway. JAK/STAT-mediated production of cytokines including IL-4, IL-13, IL-31, and TSLP inhibits the expression of important skin barrier proteins and triggers pruritus in AD. The expression of SOCS proteins regulates the JAK-mediated cytokines and facilitates maintaining the skin barrier disruptions seen in AD. STATs are crucial in dendritic-cell-activated Th2 cell differentiation in the skin, releasing inflammatory cytokines, indicating that AD is a Th2-mediated skin disorder. SOCS proteins aid in balancing Th1/Th2 cells and, moreover, regulate the onset and maintenance of Th2-mediated allergic responses by reducing the Th2 cell activation and differentiation. SOCS proteins play a pivotal role in inflammatory cytokine-signaling events that act via the JAK/STAT pathway. Therapies relying on natural products and derived biomolecules have proven beneficial in AD when compared with the synthetic regimen. In this review, we focused on the available literature on the potential natural-product-derived biomolecules targeting JAK/STAT/SOCS signaling, mainly emphasizing the SOCS family of proteins (SOCS1, SOCS3, and SOCS5) acting as negative regulators in modulating JAK/STAT-mediated responses in AD pathogenesis and other inflammatory disorders. 相似文献

Distal C?H bond functionalization of heterocycles remained extremely challenging with covalently attached directing groups (DG). Lack of proper site for DG attachment and inherent catalyst poisoning by heterocycles demand alternate routes for site selective functionalization of their distal C?H bonds. Utilizing non‐productive coordinating property to hold the heterocycle into the cavity of a template system in a host–guest manner, we report distal C?H alkylation (C‐5 of quinoline and thiazole, C‐7 of benzothiazole and benzoxazole) of heterocycles. Upon complexation with heterocyclic substrate, nitrile DG in template directs the metal catalyst towards close vicinity of the specific distal C?H bond of the heterocycles. Our hypothesized pathway has been supported by various X‐ray crystallographically characterized intermediates. 相似文献

We describe the synthesis, characterization, and in vitro antibacterial evaluation of a library of novel compounds based on 1,2,3-triazolo phosphonate framework along with the evaluation of DNA gyrase inhibitory potential of a promising molecule in silico. Preparation of these compounds was carried out via a multistep sequence comprising of the Abramov reaction followed by the Cu(I)-catalyzed azide–alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) as the key steps. Various α-hydroxyphosphonate derivatives containing either a secondary or tertiary alcohol at the α position were prepared. When screened for their antibacterial activities in vitro using a Gram-positive (Staphylococcus aureus) and three Gram-negative (Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae and Pseudomonas aeruginosa) strains, majority of these derivatives exhibited reasonable to good effects with the analogue 5k being active against all the strains. The SAR analysis indicated that the activity was influenced by the position of the α-hydroxyphosphonate moiety as well as the substituent present on the benzene ring attached to the 1,2,3-triazole ring. Moreover, the compound 5k showed strong interactions with the DNA active site when docked into the DNA gyrase in silico. Thus, the 1,2,3-triazolo phosphonate derivative 5k appeared to be a novel and promising hit molecule that deserves further study as a potential antibacterial agent. 相似文献

Docking algorithms that aim to be applicable to a broad range of ligands suffer reduced accuracy because they are unable to incorporate ligand‐specific conformational energies. Here, we develop a set of Carbohydrate Intrinsic (CHI) energy functions that quantify the conformational properties of oligosaccharides, based on the values of their glycosidic torsion angles. The relative energies predicted by the CHI energy functions mirror the conformational distributions of glycosidic linkages determined from a survey of oligosaccharide‐protein complexes in the protein data bank. Addition of CHI energies to the standard docking scores in Autodock 3, 4.2, and Vina consistently improves pose ranking of oligosaccharides docked to a set of anticarbohydrate antibodies. The CHI energy functions are also independent of docking algorithm, and with minor modifications, may be incorporated into both theoretical modeling methods, and experimental NMR or X‐ray structure refinement programs. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. 相似文献
