Abstract
Dry age-related macular degeneration and Stargardt disease undergo a known toxic mechanism caused by carbonyl and oxidative stresses (COS). This is responsible for accumulation in the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) of A2E, a main toxic pyridinium bis-retinoid lipofuscin component. Previous studies have shown that carbonyl stress in retinal cells could be reduced by an alkyl-phloroglucinol-DHA conjugate (lipophenol). Here, we performed a rational design of different families of lipophenols to conserve anti-carbonyl stress activities and improve antioxidant properties. Five synthetic pathways leading to alkyl-(poly)phenol derivatives, with phloroglucinol, resveratrol, catechin and quercetin as the main backbone, linked to poly-unsaturated fatty acid, are presented. These lipophenols were evaluated in ARPE-19 cell line for their anti-COS properties and a structure-activity relationship study is proposed. Protection of ARPE-19 cells against A2E toxicity was assessed for the four best candidates. Finally, interesting anti-COS properties of the most promising quercetin lipophenol were confirmed in primary RPE cells.

Abstract
Studying noncanonical intermolecular interactions between a ligand and a protein constitutes an emerging research field. Identifying synthetically accessible molecular fragments that can engage in intermolecular interactions is a key objective in this area. Here, it is shown that so-called "π-hole interactions" are present between the nitro moiety in nitro aromatic ligands and lone pairs within protein structures (water and protein carbonyls and sulfurs). Ample structural evidence was found in a PDB analysis and computations reveal interaction energies of about -5 kcal mol-1 for ligand-protein π-hole interactions. Several examples are highlighted for which a π-hole interaction is implicated in the superior binding affinity or inhibition of a nitro aromatic ligand versus a similar non-nitro analogue. The discovery that π-hole interactions with nitro aromatics are significant within protein structures parallels the finding that halogen bonds are biologically relevant. This has implications for the interpretation of ligand-protein complexation phenomena, for example, involving the more than 50 approved drugs that contain a nitro aromatic moiety.
