Isoniazid-N-acylhydrazones as promising compounds for the anti-tuberculosis treatment. Tuberculosis (Edinb) 2023; 141:102363. [PMID: 37311289 DOI: 10.1016/j.tube.2023.102363] [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: 03/28/2023] [Revised: 05/29/2023] [Accepted: 06/05/2023] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
Tuberculosis (TB), a disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex, still presents significant numbers of incidence and mortality, in addition to several cases of drug resistance. Resistance, especially to isoniazid, which is one of the main drugs used in the treatment, has increased. In this context, N-acylhydrazones derived from isoniazid have shown important anti-Mycobacterium tuberculosis activity. Hence, this work aimed to determine the anti-TB potential of 11 isoniazid-N-acylhydrazones (INH-acylhydrazones). For this purpose, the determination of minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) against M. tuberculosis H37Rv and clinical isolates was carried out. Drug combination, minimum bactericidal concentration, cytotoxicity, and in silico parameters were also performed. INH-acylhydrazones (2), (8), and (9) had MIC for M. tuberculosis H37Rv similar to or lower than isoniazid, and bactericidal activity was observed. In addition, these compounds showed low cytotoxicity, with a selectivity index greater than 3,000. Interesting results were also obtained in the drug combination assay, with synergistic combinations with isoniazid, ethambutol, and rifampicin. In the in silico study, INH-acylhydrazones behaved similarly to INH, but with improvements in some aspects. Based on these findings, it is concluded that compounds (2), (8), and (9) are considered promising scaffolds and warrant further investigation for designing future antimicrobial drugs.

[PMID: 37110587 PMCID: PMC10143858 DOI: 10.3390/molecules28083354] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/02/2023] [Revised: 03/31/2023] [Accepted: 04/07/2023] [Indexed: 04/29/2023] Open
Abstract
Contemporary pharmacology dating back to the late 19th/early 20th centuries has benefitted largely from the incorporation of metal complexes. Various biological attributes have been successfully realized using metal/metal complex-based drugs. Among anticancer, antimicrobial, and antiviral applications, anticancer applications have extracted the maximum benefit from the metal complex, Cisplatin. The following review has compiled the various antiviral benefits harnessed through inputs from metal complexes. As a result of exploiting the pharmacological aspects of metal complexes, the anti-COVID-19 deliverables have been summarized. The challenges ahead, the gaps in this research area, the need to improvise incorporating nanoaspects in metal complexes, and the need to test metal complex-based drugs in clinical trials have been discussed and deliberated. The pandemic shook the entire world and claimed quite a percentage of the global population. Metal complex-based drugs are already established for their antiviral property with respect to enveloped viruses and extrapolating them for COVID-19 can be an effective way to manipulate drug resistance and mutant issues that the current anti-COVID-19 drugs are facing.

Abstract
In recent years, the study of metal complexes and metal-based nanomaterials has aroused particular interest, leading to the promotion of new effective systems for the abatement of various viral diseases. Starting from the analysis of chemical properties, this review focuses on the employment of metal-based nanoparticles as antiviral drugs and how this interaction leads to a substantial enhancement in antiviral activity. The use of metal-based antiviral drugs has also spread for the formulation of antiviral vaccines, thanks especially to the remarkable adjuvant activities of some of the metal complexes. In particular, the small size and inert nature of Au- and Ag-based nanoparticles have been exploited for the design of systems for antiviral drug delivery, leading to the development of specific and safe therapies that lead to a decrease in side effects.
