Heliyon 2024; 10:e34561. [PMID: 39113987 PMCID: PMC11305329 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e34561] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/13/2024] [Revised: 05/06/2024] [Accepted: 07/11/2024] [Indexed: 08/10/2024] Open
Abstract
ISoXD2 are well explored among versatile and outstanding class of pharmacophores for the preparation and discovery of drugs. Herein, the electronic absorption and emission spectra of ISoXD2 were investigated in three different solvents. The observed transition was attributed to π-π* with charge transfer character. Changes in the excited state and shift of the absorption and emission peaks to longer wavelengths are observed as a result of increasing solvent polarity, due to the interactions between the ISoXD2 molecule and the solvent molecules surrounding it. Changing the solvent confirms its solvatochromic effect. UV-vis and fluorescence analysis revealed that ISoXD2 binds to deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) by intercalation mode, with a stoichiometric ratio of 1:1.5. Moreover, the fluorescence intensity of DNA bound to ethidium bromide (EB) in the presence of ISoXD2 was investigated. From this analysis, the Stern-Volmer quenching constant (Ksv), quenching rate constant (kq), binding constant (Kb) and binding sites number (n) were found to be 5.654 × 103 M-1, 2.827 × 1011 M-1 s-1, 3.81 × 104 M-1 and 1.225, respectively. The interaction between ISoXD2 and β-CD was investigated through absorption spectra analysis. Kb for this interaction was determined to be 4.9 × 104 M-1. The free radical-scavenging ability of the prepared ISoXD2, examined by DPPH and ABTS assays have shown a good antioxidant activity. Furthermore, modeling study was conducted to explore their plausible binding mechanism with ISoXD2 and to support the experimental results.

Abstract
Using Ni(II) as the catalyst, electron-deficient 3,5-dimethylacryloylpyrazole olefin was reacted with C,N-diarylnitrones alone for 10 min to prepare novel five-member heterocyclic products, 4-3,5-dimethylacryloylpyrazole isoxazolidines with 100% regioselectivity and up to 99% yield. And then, taking these cycloadducts as substrates, six kinds of derivatization reactions, like ring-opening, nucleophilic substitution, addition-elimination and reduction, were studied. Experimental results showed that all kinds of transformations could obtain the target products at a high conversion rate under mild conditions, a finding which provided the basic methods for organic synthesis methodology research based on an isoxazolidine skeleton.

Abstract
In this study, a new series of cis and trans 5-substituted-3-(dibenzyloxyphosphoryl)isoxazolidines 16a-g were synthesized by the 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction of N-benzyl-C-(dibenzyloxyphosphoryl)nitrone and selected N1-allyl-N3-benzylquinazoline-2,4-diones. All the obtained trans-isoxazolidines 16a-g and the samples enriched in respective cis-isomers were evaluated for anticancer activity against three tumor cell lines. All the tested compounds exhibited high activity against the prostate cancer cell line (PC-3). Isoxazolidines trans-16a and trans-16b and diastereoisomeric mixtures of isoxazolidines enriched in cis-isomer using HPLC, namely cis-16a/trans-16a (97:3) and cis-16b/trans-16b (90:10), showed the highest antiproliferative properties towards the PC-3 cell line (IC50 = 9.84 ± 3.69-12.67 ± 3.45 μM). For the most active compounds, induction apoptosis tests and an evaluation of toxicity were conducted. Isoxazolidine trans-16b showed the highest induction of apoptosis. Moreover, the most active compounds turned out safe in vitro as none affected the cell viability in the HEK293, HepG2, and HSF cellular models at all the tested concentrations. The results indicated isoxazolidine trans-16b as a promising new lead structure in the search for effective anticancer drugs.

JOURNAL OF ETHNOPHARMACOLOGY 2024; 324:117788.

Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE Shigella infection is a public health problem responsible for approximately 700,000 deaths annually. The management of this disease is impaired by the emergence of multidrug-resistant Shigella species, highlighting the urgent need to search for alternative treatment options. In this regard, investigating medicinal plants traditionally used for the treatment of dysentery, diarrheal infections, and/or associated symptoms in endemic regions might provide an opportunity to identify phytochemicals that could be further used as a basis for the development of future anti-shigella drug candidates. AIM OF THE STUDY This study was designed to investigate the anti-shigella and antioxidant-based ethnopharmacological potency of some Cameroonian medicinal plants with an emphasis on pharmacokinetic properties of the identified chemical pharmacophore. MATERIALS AND METHODS Briefly, plant species were selected and collected based on their ethnopharmacological uses and information reported in the literature. Crude aqueous, ethanolic, methanolic, and hydroethanolic (30:70, v/v) extracts from these plants were prepared and then screened for their anti-Shigella activity against four Shigella strains and cytotoxicity against Vero and Raw cell lines using microdilution and resazurin-based methods, respectively. The antioxidant activities of potent extracts were evaluated using DPPH, ABTS, NO, and FRAP scavenging assays. The chemical profile of potent extracts was performed using the UHPLC-LIT-MS/MS and the pharmacokinetic properties, druglikeness, and likely molecular targets of the chemical scaffolds identified were predicted using SwissADME and SwissTargetPredictor. RESULTS Thirty-nine (39) plants belonging to 26 plant families were harvested. Out of the 228 extracts tested, 18 extracts originating from 6 plants (15.38 %) were active (MICs 250-1000 μg/mL) and nontoxic toward Vero (CC50 129.25-684.55 μg/mL) and Raw cell lines (CC50 336.20 to >1000 μg/mL). Six potent extracts from the two plants exhibited moderate to potent DPPH (SC50 8.870-54.410 μg/mL), ABTS (SC50 12.020-27.36 μg/mL), and NO (SC50 0.02-195.85 μg/mL) scavenging activities. Later, these extracts showed interesting ferric iron-reducing power (1.28-12.14 μg equivalent NH2OH/g of extract). The shortest onset of action time (4 and 6 h) observed following inhibition kinetics studies was observed with extracts BFSHE, PMSE, and PMSM. The UHPLC-LIT-MS/MS and some databases (Mass Spectral Library (NIST 14), Human Metabolome Database (HMD), MassBank, SuperNatural 3.0, The Food Database (FooDB), and Chemical Entities of Biological Interest (ChEBI)) allowed the annotation of 18 and 17 metabolites in the extracts from stem bark of P. macrophylla and B. ferruginea respectively. Pharmacokinetic prediction of these chemicals showed that compound 6 (4,6a-bis(Hydroxymethyl)-9a-methyl-3-oxo-1a,1b,3,5,6,6a,7a,9a-octahydrobis (oxireno)[2',3':5,6; 2″,3'':9,10]cyclodeca[1,2-b]furan-5-yl methacrylate), compound 8 (Corynoxeine), and compounds 35 (Stachybotrydial acetate) demonstrated acceptable druglike and pharmacokinetic properties and might act through inhibition of kinase, transferase, protease, oxidoreductase, and family AG protein-linked receptors. CONCLUSION The findings from this investigation demonstrated that Cameroonian medicinal plants are suitable reservoirs of anti-Shigella and antioxidant agents with good drug candidate properties.

Identification of dual-target isoxazolidine-isatin hybrids with antidiabetic potential: Design, synthesis, in vitro and multiscale molecular modeling approaches. Heliyon 2024; 10:e25911. [PMID: 38380049 PMCID: PMC10877290 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e25911] [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: 11/24/2023] [Revised: 01/08/2024] [Accepted: 02/05/2024] [Indexed: 02/22/2024] Open
Abstract
In the development of novel antidiabetic agents, a novel series of isoxazolidine-isatin hybrids were designed, synthesized, and evaluated as dual α-amylase and α-glucosidase inhibitors. The precise structures of the synthesized scaffolds were characterized using different spectroscopic techniques and elemental analysis. The obtained results were compared to those of the reference drug, acarbose (IC50 = 296.6 ± 0.825 μM for α-amylase & IC50 = 780.4 ± 0.346 μM for α-glucosidase). Among the title compounds, 5d exhibited impressive α-amylase and α-glucosidase inhibitory activity with IC50 values of 30.39 ± 1.52 μM and 65.1 ± 3.11 μM, respectively, followed by 5h (IC50 = 46.65 ± 2.3 μM; IC50 = 85.16 ± 4.25 μM) and 5f (IC50 = 55.71 ± 2.78 μM; IC50 = 106.77 ± 5.31 μM). Mechanistic studies revealed that the most potent derivative 5d bearing the chloro substituent attached to the oxoindolin-3-ylidene core, and acarbose, are a competitive inhibitors of α-amylase and α-glucosidase, respectively. Structure activity relationship (SAR) was examined to guide further structural optimization of the most appropriate substituent(s). Moreover, drug-likeness qualities and ADMET prediction of the most active analogue, 5d was also performed. Subsequently, 5d was subjected to molecular docking and dynamic simulation during the progression of 120 ns analysis to check the essential ligand-receptor patterns, and to estimate its stability. In silico studies were found in good agreement with the in vitro enzymatic inhibitions results. In conclusion, we demonstrated that most potent compound 5d could be exploited as dual potential inhibitor of α-amylase and α-glucosidase for possible management of diabetes.

Abstract
A novel isoxazolidine derivative (ISoXD) dye was successfully synthesized and comprehensively characterized. In this study, we conducted a thorough examination of its various properties, including optical characteristics, interactions with DNA and β-cyclodextrin (β-CD), molecular docking, molecular dynamic simulation, and density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Our investigation encompassed a systematic analysis of the absorption and emission spectra of ISoXD in diverse solvents. The observed variations in the spectroscopic data were attributed to the specific solvent's capacity to engage in hydrogen bonding interactions. Remarkably, the most pronounced intensities were observed in glycol, which can establish many hydrogen bonds with ISoXD. Furthermore, our study revealed a significant distinction in the fluorescence behavior of ISoXD when subjected to different solvents, particularly between CHCl3 and CDCl3. Moreover, we explored the fluorescence intensity of the ISoXD complex in the presence of various metals, both in ethanol and water. The ISoXD complex exhibited a substantial increase of fluorescence upon interaction with different metal ions. The utilization of DFT calculations allowed us to propose an intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) mechanism as a plausible explanation for this quenching phenomenon. The interaction of ISoXD with DNA and β-CD was studied using absorption spectra. The binding constant (K) and the standard Gibbs free energy change (ΔGo) for the interaction between DNA and β-CD with ISoXD were determined. In docking study, ISoXD exhibited significant docking scores (-6.511) and MM-GBSA binding free energies (-66.27 kcal/mol) within the PARP-1 binding cavity. Its binding pattern closely resembles to the co-crystal ligand veliparib, and during a 100ns MD simulation, ISoXD displayed strong stability and formed robust hydrogen bonds with key amino acids. These findings suggest ISoXD's potential as a PARP-1 inhibitor for further investigation in therapeutic development.

Abstract
Isoxazolidine derivatives were designed, synthesized, and characterized using different spectroscopic techniques and elemental analysis and then evaluated for their ability to inhibit both α-amylase and α-glucosidase enzymes to treat diabetes. All synthesized derivatives demonstrated a varying range of activity, with IC50 values ranging from 53.03 ± 0.106 to 232.8 ± 0.517 μM (α-amylase) and from 94.33 ± 0.282 to 258.7 ± 0.521 μM (α-glucosidase), revealing their high potency compared to the reference drug, acarbose (IC50 = 296.6 ± 0.825 µM and 780.4 ± 0.346 µM), respectively. Specifically, in vitro results revealed that compound 5d achieved the most inhibitory activity with IC50 values of 5.59-fold and 8.27-fold, respectively, toward both enzymes, followed by 5b. Kinetic studies revealed that compound 5d inhibits both enzymes in a competitive mode. Based on the structure-activity relationship (SAR) study, it was concluded that various substitution patterns of the substituent(s) influenced the inhibitory activities of both enzymes. The server pkCSM was used to predict the pharmacokinetics and drug-likeness properties for 5d, which afforded good oral bioavailability. Additionally, compound 5d was subjected to molecular docking to gain insights into its binding mode interactions with the target enzymes. Moreover, via molecular dynamics (MD) simulation analysis, it maintained stability throughout 100 ns. This suggests that 5d possesses the potential to simultaneously target both enzymes effectively, making it advantageous for the development of antidiabetic medications.

Ali R, Ghannay S, Messaoudi S, Alminderej FM, Aouadi K, Saleh SM. A Reversible Optical Sensor Film for Mercury Ions Discrimination Based on Isoxazolidine Derivative and Exhibiting pH Sensing. BIOSENSORS 2022; 12:1028. [PMID: 36421146 PMCID: PMC9688351 DOI: 10.3390/bios12111028] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/28/2022] [Revised: 11/11/2022] [Accepted: 11/12/2022] [Indexed: 06/16/2023]
Abstract
We developed a new optical sensor for tracing Hg(II) ions. The detection affinity examines within a concentration range of 0-4.0 µM Hg(II). The sensor film is based on Methyl 2-hydroxy-3-(((2S,2'R,3a'S,5R)-2-isopropyl-5,5'-dimethyl-4'-oxotetrahydro-2'H-spiro[cy-clohexane-1,6'-im-idazo[1,5-b]isoxazol]-2'-yl)methyl)-5-methylbenzoate (IXZD). The novel synthesized compound could be utilized as an optical turn-on chemosensor for pH. The emission intensity is highly enhanced for the deprotonated form concerning the protonated form. IXZD probe has a characteristic fluorescence peak at 481 nm under excitation of 351 nm with large Stocks shift of approximately 130 nm. In addition, the binding process of IXZD:Hg(II) presents a 1:1 molar ratio which is proved by the large quench of the 481 nm emission peak of IXZD and the growth of a new emission peak at 399 nm (blue shift). The binding configurations with one Hg(II) cation and its electronic characteristics were investigated by applying the Density Functional Theory (DFT) and the time-dependent DFT (TDDFT) calculations. Density functional theory (DFT) and the time-dependent DFT (TDDFT) theoretical results were provided to examine Hg(II)-IXZD structures and their electronic properties in solution. The developed chemical sensor was offered based on the intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) mechanism. The sensor film has a significantly low limit of detection (LOD) for Hg(II) of 0.025 μM in pH 7.4, with a relative standard deviation RSDr (1%, n = 3). Lastly, the IXZD shows effective binding affinity to mercury ions, and the binding constant Kb was estimated to be 5.80 × 105 M-1. Hence, this developed optical sensor film has a significant efficiency for tracing mercury ions based on IXZD molecule-doped sensor film.

Multifunctional Derivatives of Spiropyrrolidine Tethered Indeno-Quinoxaline Heterocyclic Hybrids as Potent Antimicrobial, Antioxidant and Antidiabetic Agents: Design, Synthesis, In Vitro and In Silico Approaches. Molecules 2022; 27:molecules27217248. [PMID: 36364077 PMCID: PMC9653804 DOI: 10.3390/molecules27217248] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/08/2022] [Revised: 10/12/2022] [Accepted: 10/17/2022] [Indexed: 12/04/2022] Open
Abstract
To combat emerging antimicrobial-resistant microbes, there is an urgent need to develop new antimicrobials with better therapeutic profiles. For this, a series of 13 new spiropyrrolidine derivatives were designed, synthesized, characterized and evaluated for their in vitro antimicrobial, antioxidant and antidiabetic potential. Antimicrobial results revealed that the designed compounds displayed good activity against clinical isolated strains, with 5d being the most potent (MIC 3.95 mM against Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 25923) compared to tetracycline (MIC 576.01 mM). The antioxidant activity was assessed by trapping DPPH, ABTS and FRAP assays. The results suggest remarkable antioxidant potential of all synthesized compounds, particularly 5c, exhibiting the strongest activity with IC50 of 3.26 ± 0.32 mM (DPPH), 7.03 ± 0.07 mM (ABTS) and 3.69 ± 0.72 mM (FRAP). Tested for their α-amylase inhibitory effect, the examined analogues display a variable degree of α-amylase activity with IC50 ranging between 0.55 ± 0.38 mM and 2.19 ± 0.23 mM compared to acarbose (IC50 1.19 ± 0.02 mM), with the most active compounds being 5d, followed by 5c and 5j, affording IC50 of 0.55 ± 0.38 mM, 0.92 ± 0.10 mM, and 0.95 ± 0.14 mM, respectively. Preliminary structure–activity relationships revealed the importance of such substituents in enhancing the activity. Furthermore, the ADME screening test was applied to optimize the physicochemical properties and determine their drug-like characteristics. Binding interactions and stability between ligands and active residues of the investigated enzymes were confirmed through molecular docking and dynamic simulation study. These findings provided guidance for further developing leading new spiropyrrolidine scaffolds with improved dual antimicrobial and antidiabetic activities.

PLANTS 2022; 11:plants11172236. [PMID: 36079620 PMCID: PMC9459890 DOI: 10.3390/plants11172236] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/31/2022] [Revised: 08/23/2022] [Accepted: 08/24/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022]
Abstract
Cuminum cyminum L. essential oil (cumin EO) was studied for its chemical composition, antioxidant and vibriocidal activities. Inhibition of biofilm formation and secretion of some virulence properties controlled by the quorum sensing system in Chromobacterium violaceum and Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains were also reported. The obtained results showed that cuminaldehyde (44.2%) was the dominant compound followed by β-pinene (15.1%), γ-terpinene (14.4%), and p-cymene (14.2%). Using the disc diffusion assay, cumin EO (10 mg/disc) was particularly active against all fifteen Vibrio species, and the highest diameter of growth inhibition zone was recorded against Vibrio fluvialis (41.33 ± 1.15 mm), Vibrio parahaemolyticus (39.67 ± 0.58 mm), and Vibrio natrigens (36.67 ± 0.58 mm). At low concentration (MICs value from 0.023–0.046 mg/mL), cumin EO inhibited the growth of all Vibrio strains, and concentrations as low as 1.5 mg/mL were necessary to kill them (MBCs values from 1.5–12 mg/mL). Using four antioxidant assays, cumin EO exhibited a good result as compared to standard molecules (DPPH = 8 ± 0.54 mg/mL; reducing power = 3.5 ± 0.38 mg/mL; β-carotene = 3.8 ± 0.34 mg/mL; chelating power = 8.4 ± 0.14 mg/mL). More interestingly, at 2x MIC value, cumin EO inhibited the formation of biofilm by Vibrio alginolyticus (9.96 ± 1%), V. parahaemolyticus (15.45 ± 0.7%), Vibrio cholerae (14.9 ± 0.4%), and Vibrio vulnificus (18.14 ± 0.3%). In addition, cumin EO and cuminaldehyde inhibited the production of violacein on Lauria Bertani medium (19 mm and 35 mm, respectively). Meanwhile, 50% of violacein inhibition concentration (VIC50%) was about 2.746 mg/mL for cumin EO and 1.676 mg/mL for cuminaldehyde. Moreover, elastase and protease production and flagellar motility in P. aeruginosa were inhibited at low concentrations of cumin EO and cuminaldehyde. The adopted in-silico approach revealed good ADMET properties as well as a high binding score of the main compounds with target proteins (1JIJ, 2UV0, 1HD2, and 3QP1). Overall, the obtained results highlighted the effectiveness of cumin EO to prevent spoilage with Vibrio species and to interfere with the quorum sensing system in Gram-negative bacteria by inhibiting the flagellar motility, formation of biofilm, and the secretion of some virulence enzymes.

Abstract
A series of novel compounds, mono-5-isoxazolidines, and bis (5-isoxazolidines) derivatives, were prepared as bicycloadducts. The new series of isoxazolidines were designed and synthesized via 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction of nitrones with 3,9-Divinyl-2,4,8,10-tetra oxaspiro (5-5) undecane in the context of new antimicrobial and antioxidant drugs discovery and were fully characterized by FT-IR, 13C-NMR, and 1H-NMR spectroscopy. The physicochemical properties of all the novel cycloadducts, like bioactivity score and lipophilicity, were predicted using calculative methods. Similarly, the pharmacokinetic properties such as metabolism, absorption, distribution, and excretion (ADME) were also predicted. Most of the tested compounds exhibited antimicrobial properties to varying degrees against various bacterial species, including the Gram-negative bacteria Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Escherichia coli, and the Gram-positive bacteria Streptococcus pyogenus and Staphylococcus aureus, Antifungal properties were also observed against the tested fungi like Candida albicans, Aspergillus niger, and Aspergillus clavatus. The activity data exhibited that most compounds have high activity as compared to the standard drugs. In the range of graded doses, the results of some selected compounds revealed that some are high antioxidants while others are moderate or weak antioxidants. As evidenced by the molecular docking studies, the synthesized compounds showed good binding mode better than a standard drug, against the protein of a Pantothenate Synthetase enzyme (PDB-2X3F).

Abstract
Thiazolidinediones (TZDs), used to treat type 2 diabetes mellitus, act as full agonists of the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma. Unfortunately, they produce adverse effects, including weight gain, hepatic toxicity, and heart failure. Our group previously reported the design, synthesis, in silico evaluation, and acute oral toxicity test of two TZD derivatives, compounds 40 (C40) and 81 (C81), characterized as category 5 and 4, respectively, under the Globally Harmonized System. The aim of this study was to determine whether C40, C81, and a new compound, C4, act as euglycemic and antioxidant agents in male Wistar rats with streptozotocin-induced diabetes. The animals were randomly divided into six groups (n = 7): the control, those with diabetes and untreated, and those with diabetes and treated with pioglitazone, C40, C81, or C4 (daily for 21 days). At the end of the experiment, tissue samples were collected to quantify the level of glucose, insulin, triglycerides, total cholesterol, and liver enzymes, as well as enzymatic and nonenzymatic antioxidant activity. C4, without a hypoglycemic effect, displayed the best antioxidant activity. Whereas C81 could only attenuate the elevated level of blood glucose, C40 generated euglycemia by the end of the treatment. All compounds produced a significant decrease in triglycerides.

Abstract
Pergularia tomentosa L. (P. tomentosa) has been largely used in Tunisian folk medicine as remedies against skin diseases, asthma, and bronchitis. The main objectives of this study were to identify phytochemical compounds that have antioxidant and antimicrobial properties from the stem, leaves, and fruit crude methanolic extracts of P. tomentosa, and to search for tyrosyl-tRNA synthetase (TyrRS), topoisomerase type IIA, and Candidapepsin-1 (SAP1) enzyme inhibitors through molecular docking study. Phytochemical quantification revealed that fruit and leaves extracts displayed the highest total flavonoids (582 mg QE/g Ex; 219 mg QE/g Ex) and tannins content (375 mg TAE/g Ex; 216 mg TAE/g Ex), also exhibiting significant scavenging activity to decrease free radicals for ABTS, DPPH, β-carotene, and FRAP assay with IC50 values (> 1 mg/mL). Additionally, promising antimicrobial activities towards different organs have been observed against several bacteria and Candida strains. From the liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) analysis, five polyphenolic compounds, namely digitoxigenin, digitonin glycoside and calactina in the leaves, kaempferol in the fruit, and calotropagenin in the stems, were identified. They were also analyzed for their drug likeliness, based on computational methods. Molecular docking study affirmed that the binding affinity of calactin and actodigin to the active site of TyrRS, topoisomerase type IIA, and SAP1 target virulence proteins was the highest among the examined dominant compounds. Therefore, this study indicated that P. tomentosa methanolic extracts displayed great potential to become a potent antimicrobial agent and might be a promising source for therapeutic and nutritional functions. These phytocompounds could be further promoted as a candidate for drug discovery and development.

[PMID: 33791384 PMCID: PMC7984888 DOI: 10.1155/2021/8889247] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/01/2020] [Revised: 01/26/2021] [Accepted: 03/01/2021] [Indexed: 11/18/2022]
Abstract
The obligate intracellular bacterium Chlamydia trachomatis is a group of worldwide human pathogens that can lead to serious reproductive problems. The frequent clinical treatment failure promoted the development of novel antichlamydial agents. Here, we firstly reported a group of pyrroloisoxazolidine-inhibited C. trachomatis in a dose-dependent manner in vitro. Among them, compounds 1 and 2 exhibited the strongest inhibitory activity with IC50 values from 7.25 to 9.73 μM. The compounds disturbed the whole intracellular life cycle of C. trachomatis, mainly targeting the middle reticulate body proliferation stages. Besides, the compounds partially inhibited the chlamydial infection by reducing elementary body infectivity at high concentration. Our findings suggest the potential of pyrroloisoxazolidine derivatives as promising lead molecules for the development of antichlamydial agents.

Abstract
New substituted pyrazolone and dipyrazolotriazine derivatives have been synthesized, designed and well characterized as promising dual antimicrobial/antioxidant agents to overcome multidrug resistant bacteria (MDR), oxidative stress and their related diseases. Among all strains, S. aureus was found to be the most susceptible for all compounds except 10b and 12b. Out of the three investigated series, sulfonamide analogues 5a-c displayed excellent antibacterial activity with 5b (MIC = 7.61 μM) and 5a (MIC = 8.98 μM) displaying activity that exceeds the reference drug tetracycline (MIC = 11.77 μM). The same sulfonamide derivatives 5a-c demonstrates high ABTS scavenging capacity comparable to standard. Moreover, the structure-activity relationship (SAR) revealed that benzenesulfonamide is a crucial group for enhancing activity. Molecular docking studies of the potent analogues were performed by targeting the crystal structures of S. aureus tyrosyl-tRNA synthetase and human peroxiredoxin-5 enzymes and the obtained results supported well the in vitro data revealing stronger binding interactions. Pharmacokinetics prediction together with modeling outcomes suggests that our sulfonamide derivatives may serve as useful lead compounds for the treatment of infectious disease.

Abstract
In an effort to explore a new class of antidiabetic inhibitors, a new series of isoxazolidine and C-alkyl imine oxide derivatives scaffolds were designed, synthesized and fully characterized. The newly synthesized analogues were evaluated for their human pancreatic α-amylase (HPA) and human lysosomal acid-α-glucosidase (HLAG) inhibitory activities and have shown a higher potency than acarbose. The compounds 7b (23.1 ± 1.1 μM) and 7a (36.3 ± 1.6 μM) were identified as the potent HPA and HLAG inhibitors with inhibitory effect up to 9 and 21-fold higher than acarbose, respectively. Antihyperglycemic activity results were supported by molecular docking approach of the most potent compounds 7b and 7a showing stronger interactions with the active site of HPA and HLAG as well as by in silico absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion and toxicity (ADMET) profile suggesting their satisfactory oral druglikeness without toxic effect. Therefore, it can be concluded that both 7b and 7a can be used as effective lead molecules for the development of HPA and HLAG inhibitors for the management of T2DM.

Abstract
A series of enantiopure isoxazolidines (3a-c) were synthesized by 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition between a (-)-menthone-derived nitrone and various terminal alkenes. The screened compounds were evaluated for their antioxidant activity by two in vitro antioxidant assays, including β-carotene/linoleic acid bleaching, and inhibition of lipid peroxidation (thiobarbituric acid reactive species, TBARS). The results revealed that compound 3b (EC50 = 0.55 ± 0.09 mM) was the most potent antioxidant as compared to the standard drug (EC50 = 2.73 ± 0.07 mM) using the TBARS assay. Furthermore, the antimicrobial activity was assessed using disc diffusion and microdilution methods. Among the synthesized compounds, 3c was found to be the most potent antimicrobial agent as compared to the standard drug. Subsequently, the acute toxicity study has also been carried out for the newly synthesized compounds and the experimental studies revealed that all compounds were safe up to 500 mg/kg and no death of animals were recorded. The cytotoxicity of these compounds was assessed by the MTT cell proliferation assay against the continuous human cell lines HeLa and compound 3c (GI50 = 46.2 ± 1.2 μM) appeared to be more active than compound 3a (GI50 = 200 ± 2.8 μM) and 3b (GI50 = 1400 ± 7.8 μM). Interestingly, all tested compounds displayed a good α-amylase inhibitory activity in competitive manner with IC50 values ranging between 23.7 and 64.35 μM when compared to the standard drug acarbose (IC50 = 282.12 μM). In addition, molecular docking studies were performed to understand the possible binding and the interaction of the most active compounds to the α-amylase pocket.
