Teneva Y, Simeonova R, Valcheva V, Angelova VT. Recent Advances in Anti-Tuberculosis Drug Discovery Based on Hydrazide-Hydrazone and Thiadiazole Derivatives Targeting InhA. Pharmaceuticals (Basel) 2023; 16:ph16040484. [PMID: 37111241 PMCID: PMC10140854 DOI: 10.3390/ph16040484] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/28/2023] [Revised: 03/15/2023] [Accepted: 03/21/2023] [Indexed: 04/29/2023] Open
Abstract
Tuberculosis is an extremely serious problem of global public health. Its incidence is worsened by the presence of multidrug-resistant (MDR) strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. More serious forms of drug resistance have been observed in recent years. Therefore, the discovery and/or synthesis of new potent and less toxic anti-tubercular compounds is very critical, especially having in mind the consequences and the delays in treatment caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. Enoyl-acyl carrier protein reductase (InhA) is an important enzyme involved in the biosynthesis of mycolic acid, a major component of the M. tuberculosis cell wall. At the same time, it is a key enzyme in the development of drug resistance, making it an important target for the discovery of new antimycobacterial agents. Many different chemical scaffolds, including hydrazide hydrazones and thiadiazoles, have been evaluated for their InhA inhibitory activity. The aim of this review is to evaluate recently described hydrazide-hydrazone- and thiadiazole-containing derivatives that inhibit InhA activity, resulting in antimycobacterial effects. In addition, a brief review of the mechanisms of action of currently available anti-tuberculosis drugs is provided, including recently approved agents and molecules in clinical trials.

Angelova VT, Pencheva T, Vassilev N, K-Yovkova E, Mihaylova R, Petrov B, Valcheva V. Development of New Antimycobacterial Sulfonyl Hydrazones and 4-Methyl-1,2,3-thiadiazole-Based Hydrazone Derivatives. Antibiotics (Basel) 2022; 11:antibiotics11050562. [PMID: 35625207 PMCID: PMC9137698 DOI: 10.3390/antibiotics11050562] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/16/2022] [Revised: 04/19/2022] [Accepted: 04/19/2022] [Indexed: 12/03/2022] Open
Abstract
Fifteen 4-methyl-1,2,3-thiadiazole-based hydrazone derivatives 3a–d and sulfonyl hydrazones 5a–k were synthesized. They were characterized by 1H-NMR, 13C NMR, and HRMS. Mycobacterium tuberculosis strain H37Rv was used to assess their antimycobacterial activity. All compounds demonstrated significant minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) from 0.07 to 0.32 µM, comparable to those of isoniazid. The cytotoxicity was evaluated using the standard MTT-dye reduction test against human embryonic kidney cells HEK-293T and mouse fibroblast cell line CCL-1. 4-Hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl substituted 1,2,3-thiadiazole-based hydrazone derivative 3d demonstrated the highest antimycobacterial activity (MIC = 0.0730 µM) and minimal associated cytotoxicity against two normal cell lines (selectivity index SI = 3516, HEK-293, and SI = 2979, CCL-1). The next in order were sulfonyl hydrazones 5g and 5k with MIC 0.0763 and 0.0716 µM, respectively, which demonstrated comparable minimal cytotoxicity. All compounds were subjected to ADME/Tox computational predictions, which showed that all compounds corresponded to Lipinski’s Ro5, and none were at risk of toxicity. The suitable scores of molecular docking performed on two crystallographic structures of enoyl-ACP reductase (InhA) provide promising insight into possible interaction with the InhA receptor. The 4-methyl-1,2,3-thiadiazole-based hydrazone derivatives and sulfonyl hydrazones proved to be new classes of lead compounds having the potential of novel candidate antituberculosis drugs.

Abstract
This research describes the synthesis and in vitro antimicrobial activity study of a series of 2,4,6-trimethylbenzenesulfonyl hydrazones. Twenty-five hydrazones (2–26) were synthesized on the basis of condensation reaction. The in vitro bioactivity study confirmed the potential application of obtained derivatives as antimicrobial agents. Among the tested compounds, the highest activity was discovered for derivative 24, which possessed minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) ranging from 7.81 to 15.62 µg/mL against Gram-positive reference bacterial strains. Synthesized benzenesulfonyl hydrazones can be applied as potential ligands for the synthesis of bioactive metal complexes.

Abstract
A highly regio- and stereoselective method was developed for the preparation of N-alkenylpyrazoles and chromenopyrazoles by the reaction of N-tosylhydrazones and salicyl N-tosylhydrazones with alkynes under neat conditions in the presence of La(OTf)3. The present study was found to be efficient and convenient for direct access to N-alkenylpyrazoles and chromenopyrazoles through C-C, C-N, and C-O bond forming reactions. Structure assignment of N-alkenylpyrazole compound 5c was confirmed by X-ray analysis.

Abstract
A library of thirty N-substituted tosyl N'-acryl-hydrazones was prepared with p-toluenesulfonyl hydrazide, methyl propiolate and different aldehydes in a one-pot synthesis via an aza-Michael reaction. The scope of the reaction was studied, including aliphatic, isoprenylic, aromatic and carbocyclic aldehydes. The prepared collection was tested against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv. Nine analogs of the collection showed Minimum Inhibitory Concentration ≤10 μM, of which the most active members (MIC of 1.25 μM) were exclusively E isomers. In order to validate the mechanism of action of the most active acrylates, we tested their activity on a M. tuberculosis InhA over-expressing strain obtaining MIC that consistently doubled those obtained on the wild type strain. Additionally, the binding mode of those analogs on M. tuberculosis InhA was investigated by docking simulations. The results displayed a hydrogen bond interaction between the sulfonamide and Ile194 and the carbonyl of the methyl ester with Tyr 158 (both critical residues in the interaction with the fatty acyl chain substrate), where the main differences on the binding mode relays on the hydrophobicity of the nitrogen substituent. Additionally, chemoinformatic analysis was performed to evaluate in silico possible cytotoxicity risk and ADME-Tox profile. Based on their simple preparation and interesting antimycobacterial activity profile, the newly prepared aza-acrylates are promising candidates for antitubercular drug development.
