Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 256:128402. [PMID: 38035955 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.128402] [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: 08/04/2023] [Revised: 11/15/2023] [Accepted: 11/22/2023] [Indexed: 12/02/2023]
Abstract
Drug development process demands validation of specific drug target impeding the Multi Drug Resistance (MDR). DNA gyrase, as a bacterial target has been in trend for developing newer antibacterial candidates due to its absence in higher eukaryotes. The fluoroquinolones are the leading molecules in the drug discovery pipeline for gyrase inhibition due to its diversity. The fluoroquinolones like levofloxacin and moxifloxacin have been listed in class A drugs for treating MDR. Gatifloxacin and ciprofloxacin also proved its efficacy against MDR TB and MDR enteric fever in adults, whereas nemonoxacin can induce anti-MDR activity of other antibiotics already suggested by studies. Though fluoroquinolones already proved its effectiveness against gyrase, other molecules viz., benzothiazinone, phenyl pyrrolamide, substituted oxadiazoles, triazolopyrimidine, arylbenzothiazole, coumarinyl amino alcohols and ciprofloxacin uracil, can inhibit the target more precisely. The structure-activity-relationships of the different scaffolds along with their synthetic strategies have been deciphered in the current review. Also, the naturally occurring compounds along with their extraction procedure have also been highlighted as potent DNA gyrase inhibitors. In addition to fluoroquinolone, the natural compounds novobiocin and simocyclinone could also inhibit the gyrase, impressively which has been designed with the gyrase structure for better understanding. Herein, ongoing clinical development of some novel drugs possessing triazaacenaphthylenes, spiropyrimidinetriones, and oxazolidinone-quinolone hybrids have been highlighted which could further assist the future generation antibiotic development corroborating gyrase as a potential target against MDR pathogens.

Abstract
Antibiotic or antimicrobial resistance is an urgent global public health threat that occurs when bacterial or fungal infections do not respond to the drug regimen designed to treat these infections. As a result, these microbes are not evaded and continue to grow. Antibiotic resistance against natural and already-known antibiotics like Ciprofloxacin and Novobiocin can be overcome by developing an agent that can act in different ways. The success of agents like Zodiflodacin and Zenoxacin in clinical trials against DNA gyrase inhibitors that act on different sites of DNA gyrase has resulted in further exploration of this target. However, due to the emergence of bacterial resistance against these targets, there is a great need to design agents that can overcome this resistance and act with greater efficacy. This review provides information on the synthetic and natural DNA gyrase inhibitors that have been developed recently and their promising potential for combating antimicrobial resistance. The review also presents information on molecules that are in clinical trials and their current status. It also analysed the SAR studies and mechanisms of action of enlisted agents.

Abstract
Background: Due to the close relationship of diabetes with hypertension reported in various research, a set of pyridine derivatives with US FDA-approved drug cores were designed and integrated by artificial intelligence. Methods: Novel pyridines were designed and synthesized. Compounds MNS-1-MNS-4 were evaluated for their structure and were screened for their in vitro antidiabetic (α-amylase) activity and anticancer (HepG2) activity by methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium assay. Comparative 3D quantitative structure-activity relationship analysis and pharmacophore generation were carried out. Results: The study revealed MNS-1 and MNS-4 as good alternatives to acarbose as antidiabetic agents, and MNS-2 as a more viable, better alternative to doxorubicin in the methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium assay. Conclusion: This combination of studies identifies new and more active analogs of existing FDA-approved drugs for the treatment of diabetes.

Abstract
EGFR positive NSCLC due to primary mutation (EGFR DEL19 & L858R) has been recognized as a crucial mediator of tumor progression. This led to the development and approval of EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors which addresses EGFR mediated NSCLC but fail to show potency after initial months of therapy due to acquired resistance (EGFR T790M, EGFR C797S). Extensive research allowed identification of drugs for EGFR positive NSCLC, wherein the majority of compounds have a pyrimidine substructure offering marked therapeutic benefits compared to chemotherapy. This current review outlines the diverse pyrimidine derivatives with amino-linked and fused pyrimidine scaffolds such as furo-pyrimidine, pyrimido-pyrimidine, thieno-pyrimidine, highlighting pyrimidine EGFR TK inhibitors reported in research emphasizing structural aspects, design approaches, inhibition potential. selectivity profile towards mutant EGFR conveyed through biological evaluation studies. Furthermore, mentioning the in-silico interaction profile of synthesized compounds for evaluating the binding affinity with key amino acids. The epilogue of review focuses on the recent research that drives forward to aid in the discovery and development of substituted amino and fused scaffolds of pyrimidine that can counteract the mutations and effectively manage EGFR positive NSCLC.

Abstract
:
To overcome the upsurge of antimicrobial resistance that has emerged in recent years,
there is a need for the development of newer hits having satisfying anti-infective activity. Hydrazides
incorporated with an azomethine hydrogen account for a cardinal class of molecules for the
development of newer derivatives. Hydrazide derivatives have gained considerable interest of medicinal
chemists owing to their diverse bioactivity. In the present review, we have attempted to
compile the recent trends in the synthesis of hydrazides and their substituted derivatives. The structural
features that lead to the desired antimicrobial activity are highlighted, which will lead the way
for synthetic and medicinal chemists to focus on newer designs in this arena.

Abstract
Novel complexes of type [Cu(N-N)(dmtp)2(OH2)](ClO4)2·dmtp ((1) N-N: 2,2'-bipyridine; (2) L: 1,10-phenantroline and dmtp: 5,7-dimethyl-1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine) were designed in order to obtain biologically active compounds. Complexes were characterized as mononuclear species that crystallized in the space group P-1 of the triclinic system with a square pyramidal geometry around the copper (II). In addition to the antiproliferative effect on murine melanoma B16 cells, complex (1) exhibited low toxicity on normal BJ cells and did not affect membrane integrity. Complex (2) proved to be a more potent antimicrobial in comparison with (1), but both compounds were more active in comparison with dmtp-both against planktonic cells and biofilms. A stronger antimicrobial and antibiofilm effect was noticed against the Gram-positive strains, including methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). Both electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and Saccharomyces cerevisiae studies indicated that the complexes were scavengers rather than reactive oxygen species promoters. Their DNA intercalating capacity was evidenced by modifications in both absorption and fluorescence spectra. Furthermore, both complexes exhibited nuclease-like activity, which increased in the presence of hydrogen peroxide.

Abstract
In the current study, we reported the tandem synthesis of two series of arene-linked pyrimidinone hybrids with related fused thieno[2,3-b]pyridine moiety. The target hybrids were prepared, in moderate to excellent yields, by the reaction of a ternary mixture of the appropriate of 3-aminothieno[2,3-b]pyridine-2-carboxylate, DMF-DMA, and a series of aryl amines in dioxane at 110 °C for 8 h. The antibacterial activity of the new hybrids was estimated against six susceptible ATCC strains. Hybrids 5g and 7g, linked to a sulfonamide unit, showed the best efficacy against S. aureus and E. faecalis strains with minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values of 1.7–1.8 μM, which exceed ciprofloxacin. Furthermore, some of new hybrids were examined as potential inhibitors of four different MRSA and VRE strains. Hybrids 5g and 7g demonstrated more potent efficacy than linezolid against MRSA strains with MIC values of 3.6/3.4 and 1.8/1.7 μM against ATCC:33591 and ATCC:43300 strains, respectively. The prior hybrids displayed a comparable efficacy with linezolid against VRE strains with MIC values of 7.3/6.9 and 3.6/3.4 μM against ATCC:51299 and ATCC:51575 strains, respectively. Additionally, some of the new hybrids were examined as potential COX-2 inhibitors using the reference celecoxib (IC50 of 0.117 µM). Hybrid 7g revealed more potent inhibitory efficacy than celecoxib with IC50 of 0.112 µM, whereas hybrid 5g showed almost inhibitory activity equivalent to celecoxib with IC50 of 0.121 µM. Molecular docking was performed to predict the possible binding interactions between hybrids 5g and 7g with the target COX-2 enzyme.

Abstract
Novel 5-amino-1,2,4-triazole derivatives and their cyclized 1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine analogues were designed, synthesized and evaluated for their antimicrobial activities. They were tested against five bacterial strains (Methicillin Resistant S. aureus (MRSA), E. coli, K. pneumoniae, A. baumannii and P. aeruginosa) using ciprofloxacin as a positive control and against two fungal strains (C. albicans and C. neoformans) using fluconazole and amphotericin B as positive controls. Compounds 9, 13a and 13b showed high to moderate antifungal activities against candida albicans (MIC values = 4-32 µg/ml), with considerable safety profiles; where no cytotoxicity against human embryonic kidney or red blood cells were detected at concentrations up to 32 µg/mL. Furthermore, compound 9 showed significant inhibitory activity against lansterol 14α-demethylase (IC50 = 0.27 µM), compared to the reference drug fluconazole (IC50 = 0.25 µM). Molecular docking of compound 9 into the active site of the cytochrome P450 enzyme revealed comparable binding modes and docking scores to those of fluconazole. Finally, in silico ADME studies prediction and drug-like properties of these compounds revealed favorable oral bioavailability results.

Abstract
A new series of [1,2,4]-triazole bearing amino acid derivatives 2a-d-9a-d were synthesized under green chemistry conditions via multicomponent reaction using lemon juice as an acidic catalyst. The obtained compounds were characterized by different spectral and elemental analyses. The obtained candidates showed promising antibacterial activity against some standard bacteria and multidrug resistant (MDR) clinical isolates. In contrast to the reference drugs cephalothin and chloramphenicol, the tested compounds showed substantial better MIC values towards the tested MDR strains. The most active compounds 3c, 8a and 9d against MDR bacteria were tested for MBC and MIC index, the results indicted the bacteriostatic activity of these compounds. The most active compounds 2c, 2d, 3c, 8a, 8b, 9a, 9b, 9c and 9d showed a high selectivity index towards antimicrobial activity against K. pneumoniae and MRSA1 compared to mammalian cells, suggesting a good safety profile.

Abstract
We synthesized Schiff base and its complexes derivatives of chitosan (CS) in order to develop antibiotic compounds based on functionalized-chitosan against gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. IR, UV-Vis, AFM, SEM, Melting point, X-ray diffraction (XRD), elemental analysis, and 1H NMR techniques were employed to characterize the chemical structures and properties of these compounds. XRD, UV-Vis, and 1H NMR techniques confirmed the formation of Schiff base and its functionalized-chitosan to metals. Subsequently, our antibacterial studies revealed that antibacterial activities of [Zn(Schiff base)(CS)] against S. aureus bacteria increased compared to those of their compounds. In addition, hemolysis test of CS-Schiff base-Cu(II) demonstrated better hemolytic activity than vitamin C, CS-Schiff base, CS-Schiff base-Zn(II), and CS-Schiff base-Ni(II). In a computational strategy, we carried out the optimization of compounds with molecular mechanics (MM+), Semi-emprical (AM1), Abinitio (STO-3G), AMBER, BIO+(CHARMM), and OPLS. Frontier orbital density distributions (HOMO and LUMO), and the optimized computational UV of the compounds were assessed. The optimized computational UV-Vis was similar to the experimental UV-Vis. We applied the docking methods to predict the DNA binding affinity, Staphylococcus aureus enoyl-acyl carrier protein reductase (ENRs), and Staphylococcus aureus enoyl-acyl carrier protein reductase (saFabI). Ultimately, the obtained data herein suggested that Schiff base is more selective toward ENRs and saFabI compared to chitosan, its complexes, and metronidazole.

Abstract
The growing resistance of bacteria to many antibiotics that have been in use for several decades has generated the need to discover new antibacterial agents with structural features qualifying them to overcome the resistance mechanisms. Thus, novel pyridothienopyrimidine derivatives (2a,b-a,b) were synthesized by a series of various reactions, starting with 3-aminothieno[2,3-b]pyridine-2-carboxamides (1a,b). Condensation of compounds 1a,b with cyclohexanone gave 1'H-spiro[cyclohexane-1,2'-pyrido[3',2':4,5]thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidin]-4'(3'H)-ones (2a,b), which in turn were utilized to afford the target 4-substituted derivatives (3a,b-8a,b). In vitro antibacterial activity evaluations of all the new compounds (2a,b-8a,b) were performed against six strains of Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria. The target compounds showed significant antibacterial activity, especially against Gram-negative strains. Moreover, the compounds (2a,b; 3a,b; 4a,b; and 5a,b) that exhibited potent activity against Escherichia coli were selected to screen their inhibitory activity against Escherichia coli topoisomerase II (DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV) enzymes. Compounds 4a and 4b showed potent dual inhibition of the two enzymes with IC50 values of 3.44 µΜ and 5.77 µΜ against DNA gyrase and 14.46 µΜ and 14.89 µΜ against topoisomerase IV, respectively. In addition, docking studies were carried out to give insight into the binding mode of the tested compounds within the E. coli DNA gyrase B active site compared with novobiocin.

Abstract
This work presents a new catalytic application of 4,4′-trimethylenedipiperidine for the efficient synthesis of a series of dihydro-[1,2,4] triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines. According to the principles of green chemistry, the reaction was performed (a) in a solvent mixture comprised of water and ethanol (1:1 v/v) at reflux temperature and (b) solvent-free grinding in a mortar by a pestle. The organocatalyst could be reused up to 10 runs, and no reduction of catalytic activity was detected. A variety of substituted dihydro-[1,2,4] triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines were obtained in good to excellent yields under eco-friendly conditions. 4,4′-Trimethylenedipiperidine is commercially available and easy to handle, and it also shows high thermal stability and good solubility in water. This work revealed that this organocatalyst, a hydrogen bond donor to active carbonyl groups and simultaneously a Lewis base through the nitrogen atom of second piperidine moiety, could play a vital role in the promotion of the one-pot multi-component reactions. The main merits of the current methodology include short reaction time, wide substrate scope, use of a metal-free catalyst and green solvents, and simple work-up process. Furthermore, this organocatalyst can be an alternative to piperidine for organic transformations.

Abstract
Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) has developed numerous mechanisms of virulence and strategies to evade the human immune system, and it can be transmitted between humans, animals, and the environment. Thus, MRSA is an important cause of morbidity and mortality in both hospitals and in the community, creating an urgent demand for the development of novel anti-MRSA candidates. The 1,2,4-triazole nucleus is a bioisostere of amide, ester, and carboxylic acid, and the 1,2,4-triazole ring is found in many compounds with diverse biological effects. 1,2,4-Triazole derivatives could exert their antibacterial activity through inhibition of efflux pumps, filamentous temperature-sensitive protein Z, penicillin-binding protein, DNA gyrase, and topoisomerase IV, and they play an important role in the discovery of novel antibacterial agents. Among them, 1,2,4-triazole hybrids, which have the potential to exert dual/multiple mechanisms of action, possess a promising broad-spectrum antibacterial activity against a panel of clinically important drug-resistant pathogens including MRSA. This review outlines the recent developments of 1,2,4-triazole hybrids with a potential anti-MRSA activity, covering articles published between 2010 and 2020. The mechanisms of action, critical aspects of their design, and structure-activity relationships are also discussed.

Abstract
Herein, novel three series of benzimidazole scaffold bearing hydrazone, 1,2,4-triazole and 1,3,4-oxadiazole moieties 1-3, 4a-j, 6a-c and 7 derivatives were designed, synthesized and evaluated for their antimicrobial activity. The structures of the prepared compounds were assigned using different spectroscopic techniques such as IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR and elemental analyses. Compounds 3, 4a, 4e and 4f exhibited remarkable antifungal activity against C. albicans and C. neoformans var. grubii with MIC values ranging from 4 to 16 μg/mL. Furthermore, they were not cytotoxic against red blood cells and human embryonic kidney cells at concentration up to 32 μg/mL. The study was expanded to forecast the mechanism of action of the prepared compounds and determine sterol quantitation method (SQM) by spectrophotometric assay. On the other hand, compound 4e showed the highest inhibitory activity against lanosterol 14α-demethylase (CYP51) with IC50 value = 0.19 μg/mL compared to fluconazole as reference IC50 value = 0.62 μg/mL. Also, compounds 4d and 4f exhibited mild to moderate antibacterial activity. Moreover, molecular docking of the active target compound 4e in active site of lanosterol 14α-demethylase (CYP51) revealed that docking scores and binding mode are comparable to that of co-crystallized ligand confirming their antifungal activity. In silico ADME prediction investigations also forecasting the drug-like characters of these compounds.

Abstract
A new ionic liquid containing a 1H,4H-piperazine-diium ring and chlorosulfonate as a 1,4-dicationic core and counter ion, respectively, was designed and synthesised. The structure elucidation of this ionic liquid was conducted by 1D and 2D NMR, FT-IR, Raman, and mass spectrum analysis. The physical properties of this ionic liquid were determined and reported. Furthermore, the dual solvent–catalyst activity of piperazine-1,4-diium dichlorosulfonate was investigated for the synthesis of new dihydro[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines through a one-pot three-component reaction. The ionic liquid was retrieved and reused several times without reducing its catalytic efficiency.
