Brain Res Bull 2024; 211:110943. [PMID: 38614408 DOI: 10.1016/j.brainresbull.2024.110943] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/08/2023] [Revised: 03/19/2024] [Accepted: 04/08/2024] [Indexed: 04/15/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Existing evidence suggests that the composition of the gut microbiota is associated with neuropathic pain (NP), but the mechanistic link is elusive. Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor α (PPARα) has been shown to be a pharmacological target for the treatment of metabolic disorders, and its expression is also involved in inflammatory regulation. The aim of this study was to investigate the important modulatory effects of PPARα on gut microbiota and spinal cord metabolites in mice subjected to chronic constriction injury. METHODS We analyzed fecal microbiota and spinal cord metabolic alterations in mice from the sham, CCI, GW7647 (PPARα agonist) and GW6471 (PPARα antagonist) groups by 16 S rRNA amplicon sequencing and untargeted metabolomics analysis. On this basis, the intestinal microbiota and metabolites that were significantly altered between treatment groups were analyzed in a combined multiomics analysis. We also investigated the effect of PPARα on the polarization fractionation of spinal microglia. RESULTS PPARα agonist significantly reduce paw withdrawal threshold and paw withdrawal thermal latency, while PPARα antagonist significantly increase paw withdrawal threshold and paw withdrawal thermal latency. 16 S rRNA gene sequencing showed that intraperitoneal injection of GW7647 or GW6471 significantly altered the abundance, homogeneity and composition of the gut microbiome. Analysis of the spinal cord metabolome showed that the levels of spinal cord metabolites were shifted after exposure to GW7647 or GW6471. Alterations in the composition of gut microbiota were significantly associated with the abundance of various spinal cord metabolites. The abundance of Licheniformes showed a significant positive correlation with nicotinamide, benzimidazole, eicosanoids, and pyridine abundance. Immunofluorescence results showed that intraperitoneal injection of GW7647 or GW6471 altered microglial activation and polarization levels. CONCLUSION Our study shows that PPARα can promote M2-type microglia polarization, as well as alter gut microbiota and metabolites in CCI mice. This study enhances our understanding of the mechanism of PPARα in the treatment of neuropathic pain.

Abstract
An [Et3NH][HSO4] ionic-liquid catalyzed, intermolecular C-N bond formation for 1,2-disubstituted benzimidazole synthesis was achieved by the reaction of OPD and substituted aldehydes at ambient reaction conditions. Operational simplicity, use of easily available substrate and reagents, good yields (74-95 %) in short reaction time (4-18 min), simple work-up, and column chromatographic free synthesis are the remarkable features of this new protocol. The applicability of [Et3NH][HSO4] ionic-liquid as a green and inexpensive catalyst with good recyclability and compatibility with a broad range of functional group having heteroatom, electron-withdrawing, and electron-releasing groups manifested the sustainability, eco-friendliness, and efficiency of the present methodology. Moreover, the antioxidant studies of the synthesized compounds using DPPH and ABTS assays were appealing and several synthesized compounds showed significant antioxidant activity.

Abstract
The control of potato virus Y (PVY) induced crop failure is a challengeable issue in agricultural chemistry. Although many anti-PVY agents are designed to focus on the functionally important coat protein (CP) of virus, how these drugs act on CP to inactivate viral pathogenicity, remains largely unknown. Herein, a PVY CP inhibitor -3j (S) is disclosed, which is accessed by developing unusually efficient (up to 99% yield) and chemo-selective (> 99:1 er in most cases) carbene-catalyzed [3+4] cycloaddition reactions. Compound -3j bears a unique arylimidazole-fused diazepine skeleton and shows chirality-preferred performance against PVY. In addition, -3j (S) as a mediator allows ARG191 (R191) of CP to be identified as a key amino acid site responsible for intercellular movement of virions. R191 is further demonstrated to be critical for the interaction between PVY CP and the plant functional protein NtCPIP, enabling virions to cross plasmodesmata. This key step can be significantly inhibited through bonding with the -3j (S) to further impair pathogenic behaviors involving systemic infection and particle assembly. The study reveals the in-depth mechanism of action of antiviral agents targeting PVY CP, and contributes to new drug structures and synthetic strategies for PVY management.

Bioorg Chem 2024; 144:107133. [PMID: 38278047 DOI: 10.1016/j.bioorg.2024.107133] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/04/2023] [Revised: 12/22/2023] [Accepted: 01/11/2024] [Indexed: 01/28/2024]
Abstract
The staphylococcal nuclease also referred as micrococcal nuclease (MNase) is a key drug target as the enzyme degrades the neutrophil extracellular trap (NET) and empowers the pathogen to subvert the host innate immune system. To this end, the current study presents a critical evaluation of MNase inhibition rendered by benzimidazole-based ligands (C1 and C2) and probes its therapeutic implications. A nuclease assay indicated that MNase inhibition rendered by C1 and C2 was ∼ 55 % and ∼ 72 %, respectively, at the highest tested concentration of 10 µM. Studies on enzyme kinetics revealed that C2 rendered non-competitive inhibition and significantly reduced MNase turnover number (Kcat) and catalytic efficiency (Kcat/Km) with an IC50 value of ∼ 1122 nM. In CD spectroscopy, a notable perturbation in the β-sheet content of MNase was observed in presence of C2. Fluorescence-microscope analysis indicated that MNase inhibition by C2 could restore entrapment of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) in calf-thymus DNA (CT-DNA). Flow cytometry and confocal microscope analysis revealed that uptake of DNA-entrapped MRSA by activated THP-1 cells was reinstated by MNase inhibition rendered by C2. Inhibition of nuclease by the non-toxic ligand C2 holds therapeutic prospect as it has the potential to bolster the DNA-mediated entrapment machinery and mitigate MRSA infections.

Abstract
Protozoan parasites represent a significant risk for public health worldwide, afflicting particularly people in more vulnerable categories and cause large morbidity and heavy economic impact. Traditional drugs are limited by their toxicity, low efficacy, route of administration, and cost, reflecting their low priority in global health management. Moreover, the drug resistance phenomenon threatens the positive therapy outcome. This scenario claims the need of addressing more adequate therapies. Among the diverse strategies implemented, the medicinal chemistry efforts have also focused their attention on the benzimidazole nucleus as a promising pharmacophore for the generation of new drug candidates. Hence, the present review provides a global insight into recent progress in benzimidazole-based derivatives drug discovery against important protozoan diseases, such as malaria, leishmaniasis and trypanosomiasis. The more relevant chemical features and structure-activity relationship studies of these molecules are discussed for the purpose of paving the way towards the development of more viable drugs for the treatment of these parasitic infections.

Abstract
An organocatalytic atroposelective strategy for the construction of axially chiral compounds containing benzimidazole and quinoline rings is described. The enantioselective heteroannulation reaction of 2-alkynylbenzimidazoles with ortho-aminophenylketones proceeded smoothly in the presence of chiral phosphoric acid to provide axially chiral heterobiaryls with good yields and enantioselectivities. This is the first example of the combination of benzimidazole and quinoline rings at the 2- and 3-positions, respectively, into axially chiral heterobiaryls by this new strategy.

Abstract
Aim: The aim was synthesis of novel benzazoles bearing amidino and 2-hydroxyphenyl substituents to explore their biological activity. Methods: Condensation of 5-substituted salicylaldehydes and intermediates gave new benzazoles by previously published and developed procedures, which were tested for antibacterial and antiproliferative activity in vitro. Results: The best antibacterial activity showed benzimidazole with 2-imidazolinyl group 27 and benzothiazole with an unsubstituted amidine 48 (minimum inhibitory concentration 8 μg/ml). Benzothiazole 53 proved most potent at inhibiting proliferation of all cancer cells (IC50: 1.2-2.0 μM). Conclusion: Most active compounds have been recognized as lead compounds for additional optimization to improve their biological activity. The type of amidine moiety markedly influenced the biological activity. Benzothiazoles showed improved antiproliferative activity in comparison to benzimidazoles.

Abstract
Silver has a long history of antimicrobial activity and received an increasing interest in last decades owing to the rise in antimicrobial resistance. The major drawback is the limited duration of its antimicrobial activity. The broad-spectrum silver containing antimicrobial agents are well represented by N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) silver complexes. Due to their stability, this class of complexes can release the active Ag+ cations in prolonged time. Moreover, the properties of NHC can be tuned introducing alkyl moieties on N-heterocycle to provide a range of versatile structures with different stability and lipophilicity. This review presents designed Ag complexes and their biological activity against Gram-positive, Gram-negative bacteria and fungal strains. In particular, the structure-activity relationships underlining the major requirements to increase the capability to induce microorganism death are highlighted here. Moreover, some examples of encapsulation of silver-NHC complexes in polymer-based supramolecular aggregates are reported. The targeted delivery of silver complexes to the infected sites will be the most promising goal for the future.

Abstract
Antibiotic-resistant bacteria represent a serious threat to modern medicine and human life. Only a minority of antibacterial agents are active against Gram-negative bacteria. Hence, the development of novel antimicrobial agents will always be a vital need. In an effort to discover new therapeutics against Gram-negative bacteria, we previously reported a structure-activity-relationship (SAR) study on 1,2-disubstituted benzimidazole derivatives. Compound III showed a potent activity against tolC-mutant Escherichia coli with an MIC value of 2 μg/mL, representing a promising lead for further optimization. Building upon this study, herein, 49 novel benzimidazole compounds were synthesized to investigate their antibacterial activity against Gram-negative bacteria. Our design focused on three main goals, to address the low permeability of our compounds and improve their cellular accumulation, to expand the SAR study to the unexplored ring C, and to optimize the lead compound (III) by modification of the methanesulfonamide moiety. Compounds (25a-d, 25f-h, 25k, 25l, 25p, 25r, 25s, and 26b) exhibited potent activity against tolC-mutant E. coli with MIC values ranging from 0.125 to 4 μg/mL, with compound 25d displaying the highest potency among the tested compounds with an MIC value of 0.125 μg/mL. As its predecessor, III, compound 25d exhibited an excellent safety profile without any significant cytotoxicity to mammalian cells. Time-kill kinetics assay indicated that 25d exhibited a bacteriostatic activity and significantly reduced E. coli JW55031 burden as compared to DMSO. Additionally, combination of 25d with colistin partially restored its antibacterial activity against Gram-negative bacterial strains (MIC values ranging from 4 to 16 μg/mL against E. coli BW25113, K. pneumoniae, A. baumannii, and P. aeruginosa). Furthermore, formulation of III and 25d as lipidic nanoparticles (nanocapsules) resulted in moderate enhancement of their antibacterial activity against Gram-negative bacterial strains (A. Baumannii, N. gonorrhoeae) and compound 25d demonstrated superior activity to the lead compound III. These findings establish compound 25d as a promising candidate for treatment of Gram-negative bacterial infections and emphasize the potential of nano-formulations in overcoming poor cellular accumulation in Gram-negative bacteria where further optimization and investigation are warranted to improve the potency and broaden the spectrum of our compounds.

Novel tetrahydropyrimidinyl-substituted benzimidazoles and benzothiazoles: synthesis, antibacterial activity, DNA interactions and ADME profiling. RSC Med Chem 2022; 13:1504-1525. [PMID: 36561067 PMCID: PMC9749923 DOI: 10.1039/d2md00143h] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/09/2022] [Accepted: 07/12/2022] [Indexed: 12/25/2022] Open
Abstract
A series of tetrahydropyrimidinyl-substituted benzimidazoles attached to various aliphatic or aromatic residues via phenoxymethylene were synthesised to investigate their antibacterial activities against selected Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. The influence of the type of substituent at the C-3 and C-4 positions of the phenoxymethylene linker on the antibacterial activity was observed, showing that the aromatic moiety improved the antibacterial potency. Of all the evaluated compounds, benzoyl-substituted benzimidazole derivative 15a was the most active compound, particularly against the Gram-negative pathogens E. coli (MIC = 1 μg mL-1) and M. catarrhalis (MIC = 2 μg mL-1). Compound 15a also exhibited the most promising antibacterial activity against sensitive and resistant strains of S. pyogenes (MIC = 2 μg mL-1). Significant stabilization effects and positive induced CD bands strongly support the binding of the most biologically active benzimidazoles inside the minor grooves of AT-rich DNA, in line with docking studies. The predicted physico-chemical and ADME properties lie within drug-like space except for low membrane permeability, which needs further optimization. Our findings encourage further development of novel structurally related 5(6)-tetrahydropyrimidinyl substituted benzimidazoles in order to optimize their antibacterial effect against common respiratory pathogens.

Abstract
Trypanosoma cruzi (T. cruzi) is a parasite that affects humans and other mammals. T. cruzi depends on glycolysis as a source of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) supply, and triosephosphate isomerase (TIM) plays a key role in this metabolic pathway. This enzyme is an attractive target for the design of new trypanocidal drugs. In this study, a ligand-based virtual screening (LBVS) from the ZINC15 database using benzimidazole as a scaffold was accomplished. Later, a molecular docking on the interface of T. cruzi TIM (TcTIM) was performed and the compounds were grouped by interaction profiles. Subsequently, a selection of compounds was made based on cost and availability for in vitro evaluation against blood trypomastigotes. Finally, the compounds were analyzed by molecular dynamics simulation, and physicochemical and pharmacokinetic properties were determined using SwissADME software. A total of 1604 molecules were obtained as potential TcTIM inhibitors. BP2 and BP5 showed trypanocidal activity with half-maximal lytic concentration (LC50) values of 155.86 and 226.30 µM, respectively. Molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulation analyzes showed a favorable docking score of BP5 compound on TcTIM. Additionally, BP5 showed a low docking score (−5.9 Kcal/mol) on human TIM compared to the control ligand (−7.2 Kcal/mol). Both compounds BP2 and BP5 showed good physicochemical and pharmacokinetic properties as new anti-T. cruzi agents.

Abstract
Introduction. Compounds based on fused imidazole derivatives can become the basis for the development of a new generation of clinical therapeutic agents for more effective treatment of resistant human bacterial infections. This requires research, including the design, synthesis, and screening of biologically active compounds of this group.The aim. To study the effect of polyfunctional benzimidazole derivatives on the survival of Escherichia coli AB1157 culture and its ability to form biofilms.Methods. The antibacterial activity of the studied compounds was evaluated using the serial dilution method. Modeling of the formation of biofilms was carried out in the wells of an immunological plate with subsequent staining of the biomass with crystal violet.Results. The inhibitory activity of some of the studied compounds on the formation of biofilms by the Gram-negative bacterium E. coli AB1157 was demonstrated. The most pronounced inhibitory effect on E. coli AB1157 biofilms was exerted by 5-bromo-2-(trifluoromethyl)-1-H-benzimidazole. The level of biofilm formation decreased by 2–4 times in the area of concentrations of 15–60 µg/ml and by 8–10 times at concentrations of 125 µg/ml and above.Conclusion. The presented work expands the knowledge about the biological activity of benzimidazoles. The obtained results show that benzimidazole derivatives are good candidates for the development of new drugs against biofilms. The data obtained are of practical interest and need further study.

N-methyl Benzimidazole Tethered Cholic Acid Amphiphiles Can Eradicate S. aureus-Mediated Biofilms and Wound Infections. Molecules 2022; 27:molecules27113501.

Abstract
Infections associated with Gram-positive bacteria like S. aureus pose a major threat as these bacteria can develop resistance and thereby limit the applications of antibiotics. Therefore, there is a need for new antibacterials to mitigate these infections. Bacterial membranes present an attractive therapeutic target as these membranes are anionic in nature and have a low chance of developing modifications in their physicochemical features. Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) can disrupt the microbial membranes via electrostatic interactions, but the poor stability of AMPs halts their clinical translation. Here, we present the synthesis of eight N-methyl benzimidazole substituted cholic acid amphiphiles as antibacterial agents. We screened these novel heterocyclic cholic acid amphiphiles against different pathogens. Among the series, CABI-6 outperformed the other amphiphiles in terms of bactericidal activity against S. aureus. The membrane disruptive property of CABI-6 using a fluorescence-based assay has also been investigated, and it was inferred that CABI-6 can enhance the production of reactive oxygen species. We further demonstrated that CABI-6 can clear the pre-formed biofilms and can mitigate wound infection in murine models.

Abstract
Coumarin and benzimidazole are privileged structures in medicinal chemistry and are widely used in drug discovery and development due to their vast biological properties. The pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties of the individual scaffolds can be improved by developing coumarin-benzimidazole chimeric molecules via molecular hybridization approach. The three major classes of coumarin-benzimidazole hybrids are merged, fused and spacer-linked hybrids. Depending on the substitution position, fused hybrids and spacer-linked hybrids can be further classified as coumarin-C3 hybrids, coumarin-C4 hybrids and coumarin-C5/6/7/8 hybrids. Most of the coumarin-benzimidazole hybrid molecules exhibited potent anticancer, antiviral, antimicrobial, antitubercular, anthelmintic, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, anticonvulsant and carbonic anhydrase inhibitory activities. The fused coumarin-C3 hybrid (2), thiomethylene-linked coumarin-C3 hybrid (45), N-glucoside substituted thiomethylene-linked coumarin-C3 hybrid (37c), amide-linked coumarin-C3 hybrid (50a), and sulfonylmethylene-linked coumarin-C4 hybrid (63) were identified as the representative potent anticancer, antimicrobial, antiviral, antioxidant and antitubercular agents respectively. The biological properties of the different classes of coumarin-benzimidazole hybrids with their structure-activity relationship studies and the mechanism of action studies were presented in this review, aiming to help the researchers across the globe to generate future hybrid molecules as potential drug candidates.

Abstract
A series of new 6-aryl-1-(3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl)-1H-benzo[d]imidazoles as tubulin polymerization inhibitors targeting the colchicine-binding site were designed to restrict bioactive configuration of (Z,E)-vinylogous CA-4. All of the target compounds were synthesized and then evaluated for their in vitro antiproliferative activities. Among them, 2a exhibited the most potent activities against three cancer cell lines with IC50 values in the range of 0.037-0.20 μM. Further mechanism studies revealed that 2a inhibited tubulin polymerization, disrupted cell microtubule networks, arrested the cell cycle at G2/M phase, induced apoptosis and hindered cancer cell migration. Moreover, 2a displayed significant in vivo antitumor efficacy in 4T1-xenograft mice model with tumor growth inhibition rate of 52% at the dose of 2.5 mg/kg. Colchicine competition assay and the docking model of 2a in complex with tubulin showed that 2a acted at the colchicine-binding site.

Abstract
Herein, we report the synthesis, characterisation and preliminary biological evaluation of two novel silver(i) complexes of type [AgL2](NO3)3 (3 and 4) with ionic N-donor benzimidazoles. The complexes have been synthesized by the reaction of 1.5 equivalents of silver nitrate and N-donor benzimidazoles containing an imidazolium core at the 2-position (1 and 2) in ethanol. The X-ray analysis of 4 shows that it has two free imidazolium cores and the charge is balanced with three nitrate anions. A study by the combination of NMR, IR, LC-MS and elemental analysis techniques also suggests that the complexes have this structure both in the solid-state and solution. The complexes are highly soluble and stable in water. Cytotoxicity evaluation against four cancerous human cells and one non-cancerous human cell revealed that the complexes have no significant anti-growth effect. However, the complexes showed a remarkable antimicrobial effect at normalized minimum inhibitory concentrations (normalized MICs) in the range of 33-268 μM against a panel of microorganisms consisting of Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria, and fungi.

Abstract
A series of new N-1-(β-d-ribofuranosyl) benzimidazole derivatives has been designed using in silico methods and synthesized as probable antimicrobial agents. Further, the compounds were assessed for their antibacterial and antifungal activity. Antibacterial screening was done by employing broth micro-dilution method and compounds exhibited excellent inhibitory activity (MIC, 50-1.56 µg/mL) against different human pathogenic bacteria, viz. B. cerus, B. subtilis, S. aureus, E. coli and P. aeruginosa and drug resistant strain (DRS) of E. coli. A great synergistic effect was observed during evaluation of ∑FIC, where a combination study was performed using standard references, viz. chloramphenicol and kanamycin. The MIC data obtained from different methods of combination approach revealed 4-128 fold more potency compared to compounds tested alone. The results clearly indicated the possibility of these compounds as active ingredients of drug regimen used against MDR strains. Antifungal screening were also performed employing two different methods, viz. serial dilution method and zone inhibition method, clearly indicated that compounds were also potentially active against several species of pathogenic fungal strains, viz. A. flavus, A. niger, F. oxysporum and C. albicans. The assessment of structure activity relationship (SAR) clearly revealed that presence of less polar and more hydrophobic substituents positively favours the antibacterial activity, conversely, more polar and hydrophilic substituents favours the antifungal activities. Thus, the results positively endorsed the compounds as potent antibacterial and antifungal agents which could be developed as possible drug regimens.

Abstract
1,2-Substituted benzimidazoles were prepared by simply stirring a mixture of copper catalysts, N-substituted o-phenylenediamines, sulfonyl azides and terminal alkynes. Particularly, the intermediate N-sulfonylketenimine occurred with two nucleophilic addition and the sulfonyl group was eliminated via cyclization. In a way, sulfonyl azides and copper catalysts activated the terminal alkynes to synthesize benzimidazoles.

Abstract
DNA gyrase and Topoisomerase IV are promising antibacterial drug targets as they regulate bacterial DNA replication and topology. In a quest for novel DNA topoisomerase inhibitors, a multidisciplinary approach was adopted that involves computational prediction of binding sites and molecular modelling followed by green synthesis and biological evaluation of antibacterial activity of spirobenzimidazo quinazolines derivatives. Using basic quantum chemistry principles, we evaluated spirobenzimidazo quinazolines derivatives with their pharmacokinetic profiles. Based on the results of the aforesaid in-silico studies, we synthesized a series of titled compounds using green synthetic methodology that were validated as potential antimicrobial agents. Quantum chemoinformatics based predicted activity for the synthesized compounds 9b, 9c, and 9j was concomitant with biological evaluation of broadspectrum antibacterial activity. Biological evaluation revealed that inhibition of biofilm formation was due to their potential antibacterial activity. We believe that the novel spirobenzimidazo quinazolines have the potential to be alternatives to aminocoumarins and classical quinazolines upon detailed target specific biological studies.

Abstract
A class of binuclear N-fused hybrid scaffolds was constructed by the reaction of 2-(2-bromoaryl)- and 2-(2-bromovinyl)benzimidazoles with aryl isocyanates as building blocks in the presence of a base under microwave irradiation. A nucleophilic addition followed by an unprecedented transition-metal-free C(sp2)-N coupling is proposed as a reaction pathway of this green process.

Abstract
Long-term substantial application of fungicides in greenhouse cultivation led to residual pollution in soils and then altered soil microbial community. However, it is unclear whether residual fungicides could affect the diversity and abundance of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in greenhouse soils. Here, the dissipation of fungicides and its impact on the abundance of ARGs were determined using shotgun metagenomic sequencing in the greenhouse and mountain soils under laboratory conditions. Our results showed the greenhouse soils harbored more diverse and abundant ARGs than the mountain soils. The application of carbendazim, azoxystrobin, and chlorothalonil could increase the abundance of total ARGs in the greenhouse soils, especially for those dominant ARG subtypes including sul2, sul1, aadA, tet(L), tetA(G), and tetX2. The abundant ARGs were significantly correlated with mobile genetic elements (MGEs, e.g. intI1and R485) in the greenhouse soils but no significant relationship in the mountain soils. Meanwhile, the co-occurrence patterns of ARGs and MGEs, e.g., sul2 and R485, sul1 and transposase, were further verified via the genetic arrangement of genes on the metagenome-assembled contigs in the greenhouse soils. Additionally, host tracking analysis indicated that ARGs were mainly carried by enterobacteria in the greenhouse soils but actinomyces in the mountain soils. These findings confirmed that some fungicides might serve as the co-selectors of ARGs and elevated their abundance via MGEs-mediated horizontal gene transfer in the greenhouse soils.

Abstract
The present study describes the investigation of the binding modes of potential anti-cancerous nitrophenyl derivatives of 2-(x-nitrophenyl)-5-nitrobenzimidazole with calf thymus DNA. The -2-(x-nitrophenyl)-5-nitrobenzimidazoles under investigation differ only in position x of nitro group in nitrophenyl substituent relative to benzimidazole moiety leading to 1-NPNB (x = 2), 2-NPNB (x = 3) and 3-NPNB (x = 4). The DFT calculations predicted that derivatives were electrochemically reducible which was then confirmed by cyclic voltammetry. In cyclic voltammetry, the second reversible peak was dependent on first irreversible reduction. This revealed that electrochemical irreversible process was governed by some other process which was then followed by reversible second electron transfer. Thus, ECE (electron transfer leading to coupled chemical reaction followed by another electron transfer process) mechanism was attributed for electrochemical reduction. Experimental results based on UV-Vis spectroscopy vaguely showed intercalation of 1-NPNB, 2-NPNB and 3-NPNB into DNA which was assisted by cyclic voltammetry. However, thermal melting and florescence spectroscopy unambiguously established intercalation for all three compounds. Molecular docking analysis ascertained in pocket stacking of 5-nitrobenzimidazole moiety in 1-NPNB and 2-NPNB while nitro phenyl substitution in 3-NPNB stacks between DNA base pair during intercalation which was in agreement with DFT computed molecular geometry. Therefore, the relative positions of nitro group and 5-nitrobenzimidazole moieties in 2-(x-nitrophenyl)- 5-nitrobenzimidazole influenced the DNA binding pattern of compounds during intercalation. The cytotoxicity of these compounds was comparable to standard drug doxorubicin against both cancerous (MCF-7) and normal (MCF-10A) breast cells which depicts their anti-cancerous potential.

Abstract
2-Aminobenzimidazoles are widely present in a number of bioactive molecules. Generally, the preparation of these molecules could be realized by the mono-substitution of 2-halobenzimidazoles with amines. However, rare examples were reported for the di-substituted products and the selectivity of mono- vs. di-substitution was relatively low. Considering the potential values of the di-substituted products, we accomplished the first selective diheteroarylation of amines with 2-halobenzimidazoles. Notably, this Pd-catalyzed transformation was realized under ligand-free conditions. Accordingly, numerous target products were efficiently produced from various aromatic or aliphatic amines and 2-halobenzimidazoles. It was worth noting that two representative products were further confirmed by X-ray crystallography. More significantly, this catalytic process could be applied to the synthesis and discovery of new bioactive compounds, which demonstrated the synthetic usefulness of this newly developed approach.

Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of Structurally Diverse Benzimidazole Scaffolds as Potential Chemotherapeutic Agents. Anticancer Agents Med Chem 2019; 20:301-314. [PMID: 31746304 DOI: 10.2174/1871520619666191028101506] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/09/2019] [Revised: 09/25/2019] [Accepted: 09/25/2019] [Indexed: 11/22/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Drug resistance and adverse effects are immense healthcare challenges in cancer therapy. Benzimidazole ring-based small molecules have been effective anticancer agents in drug development. In an effort to develop novel chemotherapeutics, we synthesized and assessed the anticancer and antibacterial activities of a small library of structurally unique benzimidazoles. METHODS The benzimidazoles were derived from indole, N-alkyl indole, fatty acid, and alpha-amino acid scaffolds providing a panel of diverse structures. The compounds were tested in three different cancer cell lines for cytotoxicity: HepG2 (human hepatocellular carcinoma), HeLa (human cervical carcinoma), and A549 (human lung carcinoma). Mechanism of cell death induced by benzimidazoles was evaluated using fluorescent dye-based apoptosis-necrosis assay, immunoblotting for active caspases, topoisomerase-II activity assay, and cell cycle assay. RESULTS Cell viability testing revealed that indole- and fatty acid-based benzimidazoles were most potent followed by the amino acid derivatives. Many compounds induced cytotoxicity in a concentration-dependent manner with cellular cytotoxicity (CC50) <20μM in the cell lines tested. Most compounds exhibited cytotoxicity via apoptosis through the intrinsic pathway. Inhibition of topoisomerase activity and cell cycle alterations were not the primary mechanisms of cytotoxicity. In addition, several compounds showed promising activity against S. aureus and S. epidermidis (Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) of as low as 0.04μmol/mL). CONCLUSION The reported benzimidazole derivatives possess promising anticancer and antibacterial properties. Additionally, we discovered apoptosis to be the primary mechanism for cancer cell death induced by the tested benzimidazoles. Our findings suggest that further development of these scaffolds could provide drug leads towards new chemotherapeutics.

Development of benzimidazole-based derivatives as antimicrobial agents and their synergistic effect with colistin against gram-negative bacteria. Eur J Med Chem 2019; 186:111850. [PMID: 31735572 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejmech.2019.111850] [Citation(s) in RCA: 31] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/17/2019] [Revised: 10/17/2019] [Accepted: 11/03/2019] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
Gram-negative bacteria pose a distinctive risk worldwide, especially with the evolution of major resistance to carbapenems, fluoroquinolones and colistin. Therefore, development of new antibacterial agents to target Gram-negative infections is of utmost importance. Using phenotypic screening, we synthesized and tested thirty-one benzimidazole derivatives against E. coli JW55031 (TolC mutant strain). Compound 6c showed potent activity with MIC value of 2 μg/ml, however, it lacked activity against several Gram-negative microbes with intact efflux systems, including E. coli BW25113 (wild-type strain). Combination of 6c with colistin partially restored its antibacterial activity against wild strains (MIC range, 8-16 μg/ml against E. coli, K. pneumoniae, A. baumannii, and P. aeruginosa). 6c exhibited no cytotoxicity against two mammalian cell lines. Therefore, compound 6c represents a promising lead for further optimization to overcome Gram-negative resistance alone or in combination therapy.
