Abstract
Molecular hybridization is a widely employed technique in medicinal chemistry for drug modification, aiming to enhance pharmacological activity and minimize side effects. The combination of an indole ring and imidazole[2,1-b]thiazole has shown promising potential as a group that exhibits potent anti-inflammatory effects. In this study, we designed and synthesized a series of derivatives comprising indole-2-formamide benzimidazole[2,1-b]thiazole to evaluate their impact on LPS-induced production of pro-inflammatory cytokines NO, IL-6, and TNF-α release, as well as iron death in RAW264.7 cells. The findings revealed that most compounds effectively inhibited LPS-induced production of pro-inflammatory cytokines NO, IL-6, and TNF-α release in RAW264.7 cells. Compound 13b exhibited the most potent anti-inflammatory activity among the tested compounds. The results of the cytotoxicity assay indicated that compound 13b was nontoxic. Additionally, compound 13b was found to elevate the levels of ROS, MDA, and Fe2+, while reducing GSH content, thereby facilitating the iron death process. Consequently, compound 13b showed promise for future development as an anti-inflammatory drug.

Abstract
Mesosulfuron-methyl, an inhibitor of acetolactate synthase (ALS), has been extensively used in wheats. However, it can damage wheat (Triticum aestivum) and even lead to crop death. Herbicide safeners selectively shield crops from such damage without compromising weed control. To mitigate the phytotoxicity of mesosulfuron-methyl in crops, several purine derivatives were developed based on active substructure splicing. The synthesized title compounds underwent thorough characterization using infrared spectroscopy, 1H nuclear magnetic resonance (1H NMR), 13C nuclear magnetic resonance (13C NMR), and high-resolution mass spectrometry. We evaluated chlorophyll and glutathione contents as well as various enzyme activities to evaluate the safer activity of these compounds. Compounds III-3 and III-7 exhibited superior activity compared with the safener mefenpyr-diethyl. Molecular structure analysis, along with predictions of absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion, and toxicity, indicated that compound III-7 shared pharmacokinetic traits with the commercial safener mefenpyr-diethyl. Molecular docking simulations revealed that compound III-7 competitively bound to the ALS active site with mesosulfuron-methyl, elucidating the protective mechanism of the safeners. Overall, this study highlights purine derivatives as potential candidates for novel safener development.

Abstract
Thiosemicarbazide derivatives have been the focus of scientists owing to their broad biological activities such as anticancer, antimicrobial, and anti-inflammatory. Herein, we designed and synthesized a new thiosemicarbazide derivative (TS-1) and evaluated its antiproliferative potential against the human hepatocellular carcinoma cell line (HEPG2) and human umbilical vein endothelial cell line (ECV-304). Also, it was aimed to investigate the necroptotic and apoptotic cell death effects of TS-1 in HEPG2 cells, and these effects were supported by molecular docking. The new synthesized compound structure was characterized using various spectroscopic methods such as FT-IR, 1 H-NMR, 13 C-NMR, and elemental analysis. The cytotoxic activity of the tested compound was measured by the MTT assay. Apoptotic and necroptotic properties of the TS-1 were evaluated by indirect immunoperoxidase method using antibodies against Ki-67, Bax, Bcl-2, caspase-3, caspase-8, caspase-9, RIP3, and RIPK1. Apoptotic and necroptotic effects of TS-1 were supported by molecular docking. Compound TS-1 was synthesized as a pure compound with a high yield. The effective value of TS-1 was 10 μM in HEPG2 cells. TS-1 did not show any cytotoxic effect on ECV-304. Caspase-3 and RIPK1 immunoreactivities were significantly increased in HEPG2 cells after being treated with TS-1. As the results of the molecular docking studies, the molecular docking showed that the TS-1 exhibits H-bond interaction with various significant amino acid residues in the active site of both RIPK1. It could be concluded that TS-1 could be a promising novel therapeutic agent by inducing apoptosis rather than necroptosis in HEPG2 cells.

Abstract
In this work, two novel chalcone-based imidazothiazole derivatives ITC-1 and ITC-2 were synthesized and characterized by 1H NMR, 13C NMR and high-resolution mass spectrometry with electrospray ionization, and chemical structure of ITC-1 was confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Also, the anticancer activity of ITC-1 and ITC-2 was evaluated. First, antiproliferative activity tests were performed against cancer cells namely, human-derived breast adenocarcinoma (MCF-7), lung carcinoma (A-549), and colorectal adenocarcinoma (HT-29) cell lines, and mouse fibroblast healthy cell line (3T3-L1) by XTT assay. Afterward, mitochondrial membrane disruption (MMP), caspase activity, and apoptosis tests were performed on MCF-7 cells to elucidate the anticancer mechanism of action of the test compounds by flow cytometry analysis. XTT results revealed that both compounds exhibited a very high degree of antiproliferative effects on each tested cancer cell line with very low IC50 values while showing much lower antiproliferation on 3T3-L1 normal cells with much higher IC50 values. Besides, ITC-2 was determined to have a striking cytotoxic power competing with the chemotherapeutic drug carboplatin. Flow cytometry results demonstrated the mitochondrial-mediated apoptotic effects of both compounds through membrane disruption and multi-caspase activation in MCF-7 cells. Finally, molecular docking studies were performed to determine the structural understanding of the test compounds by their interactions on caspase-3 and DNA dodecamer enzymes, respectively. The interactions between the compound and the crystal structure were determined according to parameters such as free binding energies (ΔGBind), Glide score values, and determination of the active binding site. The obtained data suggest that ITC-1 and ITC-2 may be considered remarkable anticancer drug candidates. In addition to molecular docking via in silico approaches, the pharmacokinetic properties of compounds ITC-1 and ITC-2 were calculated using the Schrödinger 2021-2 Qikprop wizard.Communicated by Ramaswamy H.

Abstract
Neglected tropical diseases are a diverse group of communicable pathologies that mainly prevail in tropical and subtropical regions. Thus, the objective of this work was to evaluate the biological potential of eight 4-(4-chlorophenyl)thiazole compounds. Tests were carried out in silico to evaluate the pharmacokinetic properties, the antioxidant, cytotoxic activities in animal cells and antiparasitic activities were evaluated against the different forms of Leishmania amazonensis and Trypanosoma cruzi in vitro. The in silico study showed that the evaluated compounds showed good oral availability. In a preliminary in vitro study, the compounds showed moderate to low antioxidant activity. Cytotoxicity assays show that the compounds showed moderate to low toxicity. In relation to leishmanicidal activity, the compounds presented IC50 values that ranged from 19.86 to 200 µM for the promastigote form, while for the amastigote forms, IC50 ranged from 101 to more than 200 µM. The compounds showed better results against the forms of T. cruzi with IC50 ranging from 1.67 to 100 µM for the trypomastigote form and 1.96 to values greater than 200 µM for the amastigote form. This study showed that thiazole compounds can be used as future antiparasitic agents.

Abstract
The emergence of multidrug-resistant microbes and the propagation of cancer cells are global health issues. The unique properties of chitosan and its derivatives make it an important candidate for therapeutic applications. Herein, a new thiadiazole derivative, 4-((5-(butylthio)-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl) amino)-4-oxo butanoic acid (BuTD-COOH) was synthesized and used to modify the chitosan through amide linkages, forming a new thiadiazole chitosan derivative (BuTD-CH). The formation of thiadiazole and the chitosan derivative was confirmed by FT-IR, 1H/13C-NMR, GC-MS, TGA, Elemental analysis, and XPS. The BuTD-CH showed a high antimicrobial effect against human pathogens Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Bacillus subtilis, Staphylococcus aureus, and Candida albicans with low MIC values of 25-50 μg ml-1 compared to unmodified chitosan. The in-vitro cytotoxicity of BuTD-CH was evaluated against two cancer cell lines (MCF-7 and HepG2) and one normal cell (HFB4) using the MTT method. The newly synthesized derivatives showed high efficacy against cancerous cells and targeted them at low concentrations (IC50 was 178.9 ± 9.1 and 147.8 ± 10.5 μg ml-1 for MCF-7 and HepG2, respectively) compared with normal HFB4 cells (IC50 was 335.7 ± 11.4 μg ml-1). Thus, low concentrations of newly synthesized BuTD-CH could be safely used as an antimicrobial and pharmacological agent for inhibiting the growth of human pathogenic microbes and hepatocellular and adenocarcinoma therapy.

Abstract
Breast, cervical, and ovarian cancers are among the most serious cancers and the main causes of mortality in females worldwide, necessitating urgent efforts to find newer sources of safe anticancer drugs. The present study aimed to evaluate the anticancer potency of mycoendophytic Alternaria tenuissima AUMC14342 ethyl acetate extract on HeLa (cervical cancer), SKOV-3 (ovarian cancer), and MCF-7 (breast adenocarcinoma) cell lines. The extract showed potent effect on MCF-7 cells with an IC50 value of 55.53 μg/mL. Cell cycle distribution analysis of treated MCF-7 cells revealed a cell cycle arrest at the S phase with a significant increase in the cell population (25.53%). When compared to control cells, no significant signs of necrotic or apoptotic cell death were observed. LC-MS/MS analysis of Alternaria tenuissima extract afforded the identification of 20 secondary metabolites, including 7-dehydrobrefeldin A, which exhibited the highest interaction score (−8.0156 kcal/mol) in molecular docking analysis against human aromatase. Regarding ADME pharmacokinetics and drug-likeness properties, 7-dehydrobrefeldin A, 4’-epialtenuene, and atransfusarin had good GIT absorption and water solubility without any violation of drug-likeness rules. These findings support the anticancer activity of bioactive metabolites derived from endophytic fungi and provide drug scaffolds and substitute sources for the future development of safe chemotherapy.

Abstract
Oxidative stress is involved in the pathophysiology of multiple health complications, and it has become a major focus in targeted research fields. As known, black seeds are rich sources of bio-active compounds and widely used to promote human health due to their excellent medicinal and pharmaceutical properties. The present study investigated the antioxidant potency of various black seeds from plants and their derived mycoendophytes, and determined the total phenolic and flavonoid contents in different extracts, followed by characterization of major constituents by HPLC analysis. Finally, in silico docking determined their binding affinities to target myeloperoxidase enzymes. Ten dominant mycoendophytes were isolated from different black seed plants. Three isolates were then selected based on high antiradical potency and further identified by ITS ribosomal gene sequencing. Those isolated were Aspergillus niger TU 62, Chaetomium madrasense AUMC14830, and Rhizopus oryzae AUMC14823. Nigella sativa seeds and their corresponding endophyte A. niger had the highest content of phenolics in their n-butanol extracts (28.50 and 24.43 mg/g), flavonoids (15.02 and 11.45 mg/g), and antioxidant activities (90.48 and 81.48%), respectively, followed by Dodonaea viscosa and Portulaca oleracea along with their mycoendophytic R. oryzae and C. madrasense. Significant positive correlations were found between total phenolics, flavonoids, and the antioxidant activities of different tested extracts. The n-butanol extracts of both black seeds and their derived mycoendophytes showed reasonable IC50 values (0.81–1.44 mg/ml) compared to the control with significant correlations among their phytochemical contents. Overall, seventeen standard phenolics and flavonoids were used, and the compounds were detected in different degrees of existence and concentration in the examined extracts through HPLC analysis. Moreover, the investigation of the molecular simulation results of detected compounds against the myeloperoxidase enzyme revealed that, as a targeted antioxidant, rutin possessed a high affinity (−15.3184 kcal/mol) as an inhibitor. Taken together, the black seeds and their derived mycoendophytes are promising bio-prospects for the broad industrial sector of antioxidants with several valuable potential pharmaceutical and nutritional applications.

Abstract
Within the scope of this study, new 2-{2-[(5-nitrothiophen-2-yl)methylene]hydrazinyl}thiazole derivatives (2a-j) were synthesized and investigated for their potential anticancer and enzyme inhibition activities. Spectroscopic techniques were used to determine the structures of substances. The anticancer activities of compounds were detected in A549 human lung carcinoma and L929 murine fibroblast cell lines, determining cytotoxicity, apoptosis, mitochondrial membrane integrity, and caspase-3 activation. Compounds 2b bearing 4-nitrophenyl, 2c bearing phenyl, and 2d bearing 4-cyanophenyl moieties were specified with high anticancer activity, acting through an apoptotic pathway with an apoptosis ratio of 9.61%-15.59%. Mitochondrial membrane depolarization was determined to be 25.53% and 22.33% for compounds 2b and 2c, respectively. Furthermore, compound 2c exhibited excellent caspase-3 activation. A molecular docking study was realized with compound 2c on the caspase-3 enzyme. Furthermore, the electronic characteristics of the active compounds were investigated using density functional theory (DFT) at the B3LYP/6-31G (d, p) level. The frontier molecular orbital energy and atomic net charges were examined.

Abstract
Thiazolidin-4-ones is an important heterocyclic ring system of a pharmacophore and a privileged scaffold in medicinal chemistry. This review is focused on the latest scientific reports regarding biological activities of thiazolidin-4-ones published in 2020 and 2021. The review covers recent information about antioxidant, anticancer, anti-inflammatory, analgesic, anticonvulsant, antidiabetic, antiparasitic, antimicrobial, antitubercular and antiviral properties of thiazolidin-4-ones. Additionally, the influence of different substituents in molecules on their biological activity was discussed in this paper. Thus, this study may help to optimize the structure of thiazolidin-4-one derivatives as more efficient drug agents. Presented information may be used as a practical hint for rational design of new small molecules with biological activity, especially among thiazolidin-4-ones.

Abstract
An efficient diastereoselective route is developed to get access to novel spiropyrrolo[1,2-a]isoquinoline-oxindole skeletons by a one-pot three-component [3 + 2] cycloaddition reaction of (Z)-5-arylidene-1,3-thiazolidine-2,4-diones, isatin derivatives, and 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline (THIQ). Interestingly, the regioselectivity of the reaction is both temperature- and solvent-dependent, allowing the synthesis of two regioisomeric endo-dispiropyrrolo[2,1-a]isoquinolineoxindoles in excellent yield. Unprecedentedly, each isomeric dispiropyrrolo[2,1-a]isoquinolineoxindole endured retro-1,3-dipolar cycloaddition/recycloaddition reactions under thermal or catalytic conditions to regenerate the corresponding regioisomeric counterpart. In addition, DFT calculations were performed at the M062X/6-31++g(d,p) level of theory to unravel the origin of the reversal of regioselectivity and endo-stereoselectivity of the title 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reactions. Upon treatment of Isatin, THIQ with (Z)-4-arylidene-5-thioxo-thiazolidin-2-ones as dipolarophiles, unusual rhodanine analogues were formed, along with smaller amounts of a dispirooxindole-piperazine. The structure and the relative configuration of these N-heterocycles were unambiguously assigned by spectroscopic techniques and confirmed by four single-crystal structures. In vitro and in vivo studies reveal that the novel rhodanine derivatives exert antidiabetic activity. The binding affinity with the active site of the enzyme α-amylase was studied by molecular docking. Furthermore, the bioavailability assessed through virtual ADME parameters (Absorption, Distribution, Metabolism, Elimination pharmacokinetics) and the excellent fit with the Lipinski and Veber rules predict good drug-likeness properties for a bromo-substituted 2-sulfanylidene-1,3-thiazolidin-4-one.

Abstract
Novel series of imidazo[2,1-b]thiazole analogs were designed, synthesized, and biologically evaluated as indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO1) inhibitors. Imidazo[2,1-b]thiazoles 6, 7, and 8 showed inhibitory profiles against IDO1 at IC50 values of 68.48, 82.39, and 48.48 nM, respectively, compared with IDO5L at IC50 67.40 nM. Benzo[d]imidazo[2,1-b]thiazoles 17, 20, and 22 showed promising IDO1 inhibition at IC50 values of 53.58, 53.16, and 57.95 nM, respectively. Compound 7 showed a growth-inhibitory profile at GI of 39.33% against the MCF7 breast cancer cell line, while 8 proved lethal to ACHN renal cancer cells. Cells treated with compounds 17 and 22 showed a typical apoptosis pattern of DNA fragments that reflected the G0/G1, S, and G2/M phases of the cell cycle, together with a pre-G1 phase corresponding to apoptotic cells, which indicates that cell growth arrest occurred at the S phase. Molecular modeling simulations validated the potential of benzo[d]imidazo[2,1-b]thiazole analogs to chelate iron(III) within the IDO1 binding pocket and, hence, to have a better binding affinity via hydrophobic-hydrophobic interactions.

Abstract
Imidazole and thiadiazole derivatives display an extensive application in pharmaceutical chemistry, and they have been investigated as bioactive molecules for medicinal chemistry purposes. Classical carbonic anhydrase (CA) inhibitors are based on sulfonamide groups, but inhibiting all CA isoforms nonspecifically, thereby causing undesired side effects, is the main drawback of these types of inhibitors. Here we reported an investigation of novel 2,6-disubstituted imidazo[2,1-b][1,3,4]thiadiazole derivatives (9a-k, 10a, and 11a) and 2,5,6-trisubstituted imidazo[2,1-b][1,3,4]thiadiazole derivatives (12a-20a) that do not possess the zinc-binding sulfonamide group for the inhibition of human carbonic anhydrase (hCA, EC 4.2.1.1) I and II isoforms and also of acetylcholinesterase (AChE, EC 3.1.1.7). Imidazo[2,1-b][1,3,4]thiadiazoles demonstrated low nanomolar inhibitory activity against hCA I, hCA II, and AChE (KIs are in the range of 23.44-105.50 nM, 10.32-104.70 nM, and 20.52-54.06 nM, respectively). Besides, compound 9b inhibit hCA I up to 18-fold compared to acetazolamide, while compound 10a has a 5-fold selectivity towards hCA II. The synthesized compounds were also evaluated for their cytotoxic effects on the L929 mouse fibroblast cell line. Molecular docking simulations were performed to elucidate these inhibitors' potential binding modes against hCA I and II isoforms and AChE. The novel compounds reported here can represent interesting lead compounds, and the results presented here might provide further structural guidance to discover and design more potent hCA and AChE inhibitors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Isoxaflutole (IXF), as a kind of 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (HPPD) inhibitor, has been widely used in many kinds of plants. IXF can cause injury in corn including leaf and stem bleaching, plant height reduction or stunting, and reduced crop stand. Safeners are co-applied with herbicides to protect crops without compromising weed control efficacy. With the ultimate goal of addressing Zea mays injury caused by IXF, a series of novel substituted dichloroacetylphenyl sulfonamide derivatives was designed on the basis of scaffold hopping and active substructure splicing. RESULTS A total of 35 compounds were synthesized via acylation reactions. All the compounds were characterized by infrared (IR), proton and carbon-13 nuclear magnetic resonance (1 H-NMR and 13 C-NMR), and high-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS). The configuration of compound II-1 was confirmed by single crystal X-ray diffraction. The bioassay results showed that all the title compounds displayed remarkable protection against IXF via improved content of carotenoid. Especially compound II-1 which possessed better glutathione transferases (GSTs) activity and carotenoid content than the contrast safener cyprosulfamide (CSA). All the satisfied parameters suggested that the Comparative Molecular Field Analysis (CoMFA) model was reliable and stable [with a cross-validated coefficient (q2 ) = 0.527, r2 = 0.995, r2 pred = 0.931]. The molecular docking simulation indicated that the compound II-1 and CSA could compete with diketonitrile (DKN) at the active site of HPPD, which is a hydrolyzed product of IXF in plants, causing the herbicide to be ineffective. CONCLUSIONS The present work revealed that the compound II-1 deserves further attention as the candidate structure of safeners. © 2020 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
A series of 30-diethylphosphate derivatives of betulin were synthesized and evaluated for their in vitro cytotoxic activity against human cancer cell lines, such as amelanotic melanoma (C-32), glioblastoma (SNB-19), and two lines of breast cancer (T47D, MDA-MB-231). The molecular structure and activities of the new compounds were also compared with their 29-phosphonate analogs. Compounds 7a and 7b showed the highest activity against C-32 and SNB-19 cell lines. The IC50 values for 7a were 2.15 and 0.91 μM, and, for 7b, they were 0.76 and 0.8 μM for the C-32 and SNB-19 lines, respectively. The most potent compounds, 7a and 7b, were tested for their effects on markers of apoptosis, such as H3, TP53, BAX, and BCL-2. For the whole series of phosphate derivatives, a lipophilicity study was performed, and the ADME parameters were calculated. The most active products were docked to the active site of the EGFR protein. The relative binding affinity of selected phosphate betulin derivatives toward EGFR was compared with standard erlotinib on the basis of ChemScore and KDEEP score. Positively, all derivatives docked inside the cavity and showed significant interactions. Moreover, a molecular dynamics study also reveals that ligands 7a,b form stable complexes and the plateau phase started after 7 ns.
