Abstract
A series of sulfonate and sulfamate derivatives bearing benzofuran or benzothiophene scaffold exhibited potent inhibitory effect on urease enzyme. Most of the derivatives exhibited significantly higher potency than thiourea, the standard inhibitor. Compound 1s was identified as the most potent urease inhibitor with an IC50 value of 0.42 ± 0.08 μM, which is 53-fold more potent than thiourea, positive control (IC50 = 22.3 ± 0.031 μM). The docking results further revealed the binding interactions towards the urease active site. Phenotypic screening revealed that compounds 1c, 1d, 1e, 1f, 1j, 1n, and 1t exhibit high potency against H. pylori with MIC values ranging from 0.00625 to 0.05 mM and IC50 values ranging from 0.0031 to 0.0095 mM, much more potent than the positive control, acetohydroxamic acid (MIC and IC50 values were 12.5 and 7.38 mM, respectively). Additional studies were performed to investigate the toxicity of these compounds against the gastric epithelial cell line (AGS) and their selectivity profile against E. coli, and five Lactobacillus species representative of the gut microflora. Permeability characteristics of the most promising derivatives were investigated in Caco-2 cell line. The results indicate that the compounds could be targeted in the GIT only without systemic side effects.

Exploration of morpholine-thiophene hybrid thiosemicarbazones for the treatment of ureolytic bacterial infections via targeting urease enzyme: Synthesis, biochemical screening and computational analysis. Front Chem 2024; 12:1403127.

Abstract
An important component of the pathogenicity of potentially pathogenic bacteria in humans is the urease enzyme. In order to avoid the detrimental impact of ureolytic bacterial infections, the inhibition of urease enzyme appears to be an appealing approach. Therefore, in the current study, morpholine-thiophene hybrid thiosemicarbazone derivatives (5a-i) were designed, synthesized and characterized through FTIR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry. A range of substituents including electron-rich, electron-deficient and inductively electron-withdrawing groups on the thiophene ring was successfully tolerated. The synthesized derivatives were evaluated in vitro for their potential to inhibit urease enzyme using the indophenol method. The majority of compounds were noticeably more potent than the conventional inhibitor, thiourea. The lead inhibitor, 2-(1-(5-chlorothiophen-2-yl)ethylidene)-N-(2-morpholinoethyl)hydrazinecarbothioamide (5g) inhibited the urease in an uncompetitive manner with an IC50 value of 3.80 ± 1.9 µM. The findings of the docking studies demonstrated that compound 5g has a strong affinity for the urease active site. Significant docking scores and efficient binding free energies were displayed by the lead inhibitor. Finally, the ADME properties of lead inhibitor (5g) suggested the druglikeness behavior with zero violation.

New acetylphenol-based acyl thioureas broaden the scope of drug candidates for urease inhibition: synthesis, in vitro screening and in silico analysis. Int J Biol Macromol 2022; 198:157-167.

Abstract
Helicobacter pylori urease remains a validated drug target for the eradication of pervasive chronic stomach infection that leads to severe human health diseases such as gastritis and stomach cancer. The increased failure of current treatment protocols because of resistance to broadband antibiotics, severe side effects and low compliance underscore the need for a targeted eradication therapy. Therefore, in the present research, we have developed a new series of acetylphenol-based acyl thioureas that can potentially provide a new template for drug candidates to inhibit urease enzyme. Newly synthesized compounds 7a-j were evaluated for urease inhibitory strength using thiourea as a positive control. In vitro inhibitory results revealed that all the tested compounds were significantly potent than the standard drug. The most active lead 7f competitively inhibited the enzyme and displayed an IC50 value of 0.054 ± 0.002 μM, a ~413-fold strong inhibitory potential than thiourea (IC50 = 22.3 ± 0.031 μM). Various insightful structure-activity relationships were developed showing the key structural requirements for potent inhibitory effects. Molecular docking analysis of 7f inside the active pocket of urease suggested several important interactions with amino acid residues such as ILE411, MET637, ARG439, GLN635, ALA636 and ALA440. Finally, pharmacokinetic properties suggested that the tested derivatives are safe to develop as low-molecular-weight drugs to treat ureolytic bacterial infections.

Abstract
The discovery of life-changing medicines continues to be the driving force for the rapid exploration and expansion of chemical space, enabling access to innovative small molecules of medicinal importance. These small molecules remain the backbone for modern drug discovery. In this context, the treatment of ureolytic bacterial infections inspires the identification of potent and effective inhibitors of urease, a promising and highly needed target for H. pylori eradication. The present study explores the evaluation of sulfamate derivatives for the inhibition of urease enzyme. The tested compounds showed remarkable inhibitory effect and high level of potency. Compound 1q emerged as the lead inhibitor with an IC50 value of 0.062 ± 0.001 µM, ∼360-fold more potent than thiourea (IC50 = 22.31 ± 0.031 µM). The assessment of various contributing factors towards the inhibition profile allowed for the establishment of diverse structure-activity relationships. Kinetics studies revealed the competitive mode of inhibition of compound 1q while molecular modeling analysis identified various crucial binding interactions with ARG609, ARG439, HIS519, HIS492, HIS593, ALA440, and ALA636 in the active pocket of the enzyme. Finally, the calculated pharmacokinetic properties suggest a promising profile of our potent sulfamate-based urease inhibitors.

Abstract
We report herein, the design, synthesis and study of anticancer properties of sulfenylated 2-phenylimidazo[1,2-a]pyridines and their analogues. A set of twenty sulfenylated imidazo[1, 2-a]pyridine derivatives were synthesized. Whereby elusive amendments to the imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine motif confer dramatic changes in functional affinity of a novel action to modulate anticancer activity in seven different human cancer cell lines i.e.: MDA MB 231 (breast), HepG2 (liver), Hela (cervical), A549 (lung), U87MG (glioblastoma), SKMEL-28 (skin melanoma) and DU-145 (prostate) by employing MTT assay. Among the series, compounds 4e (naphthalene), 4f (styrene) and 4h (thiomethyl) showed potent activity towards human liver cancer cells HepG2. Cell cycle analysis results revealed that these compounds arrested the cell cycle at G2/M phase and induced apoptosis in human liver cancer cells HepG2. It was further confirmed by Hoechst staining, Measurement of mitochondrial membrane potential (ΔΨm) and Annexin V-FITC assay.

Abstract
Ureases are enzymes that hydrolyze urea into ammonium and carbon dioxide. They have received considerable attention due to their impacts on living organism health, since the urease activity in microorganisms, particularly in bacteria, are potential causes and/or factors contributing to the persistence of some pathogen infections. This review compiles examples of the most potent antiurease organic substances. Emphasis was given to systematic screening studies on the inhibitory activity of rationally designed series of compounds with the corresponding SAR considerations. Ureases of Canavalia ensiformis, the usual model in antiureolytic studies, are emphasized. Although the active site of this class of hydrolases is conserved among bacteria and vegetal ureases, the same is not observerd for allosteric site. Therefore, inhibitors acting by participating in interactions with the allosteric site are more susceptible to a potential lack of association among their inhibitory profile for different ureases. The information about the inhibitory activity of different classes of compounds can be usefull to guide the development of new urease inhibitors that may be used in future in small molecular therapy against pathogenic bacteria.
