A Comprehensive Review of the Docking Studies of Chalcone for the Development of Selective MAO-B Inhibitors. CNS & NEUROLOGICAL DISORDERS DRUG TARGETS 2024; 23:697-714. [PMID: 37190818 DOI: 10.2174/1871527322666230515155000] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/16/2022] [Revised: 03/24/2023] [Accepted: 03/27/2023] [Indexed: 05/17/2023]
Abstract
Monoamine oxidase B is a crucial therapeutic target for neurodegenerative disorders like Alzheimer's and Parkinson's since they assist in disintegrating neurotransmitters such as dopamine in the brain. Pursuing efficacious monoamine oxidase B inhibitors is a hot topic, as contemporary therapeutic interventions have many shortcomings. Currently available FDA-approved monoamine oxidase inhibitors like safinamide, selegiline and rasagiline also have a variety of side effects like depression and insomnia. In the quest for a potent monoamine oxidase B inhibitor, sizeable, diverse chemical entities have been uncovered, including chalcones. Chalcone is a renowned structural framework that has been intensively explored for its monoamine oxidase B inhibitory activity.The structural resemblance of chalcone (1,3-diphenyl-2-propen-1-one) based compounds and 1,4-diphenyl- 2-butene, a recognized MAO-B inhibitor, accounts for their MAO-B inhibitory activity. Therefore, multiple revisions to the chalcone scaffold have been attempted by the researchers to scrutinize the implications of substitutions onthe molecule's potency. In this work, we outline the docking investigation results of various chalcone analogues with monoamine oxidase B available in the literature until now to understand the interaction modes and influence of substituents. Here we focused on the interactions between reported chalcone derivatives and the active site of monoamine oxidase B and the influence of substitutions on those interactions. Detailed images illustrating the interactions and impact of the substituents or structural modifications on these interactions were used to support the docking results.

Abstract
The incorporation of heterocyclic moieties into the standard chemical structure with a biologically active scaffold has become of crucial practice for the construction of pharmacologically potent candidates in the drug arena. Currently, numerous kinds of chalcones and their derivatives have been synthesized using the incorporation of heterocyclic scaffolds, especially chalcones bearing heterocyclic moieties that display improved efficiency and potential for drug production in pharmaceutical sectors. The current Review focuses on recent advances in the synthetic approaches and pharmacological activities such as antibacterial, antifungal, antitubercular, antioxidant, antimalarial, anticancer, anti-inflammatory, antigiardial, and antifilarial activities of chalcone derivatives incorporating N-heterocyclic moieties at either the A-ring or B-ring.

Abstract
Plasmodium falciparum is responsible for the most severe and deadliest human malaria infection. The most serious complication of this infection is cerebral malaria. Among the proposed hypotheses that seek to explain the manifestation of the neurological syndrome in cerebral malaria is the vascular occlusion/sequestration/mechanic hypothesis, the cytokine storm or inflammatory theory, or a combination of both. Unfortunately, despite the increasing volume of scientific information on cerebral malaria, our understanding of its pathophysiologic mechanism(s) is still very limited. In a bid to maintain its survival and development, P. falciparum exports a large number of proteins into the cytosol of the infected host red blood cell. Prominent among these are the P. falciparum erythrocytes membrane protein 1 (PfEMP1), P. falciparum histidine-rich protein II (PfHRP2), and P. falciparum heat shock proteins 70-x (PfHsp70-x). Functional activities and interaction of these proteins with one another and with recruited host resident proteins are critical factors in the pathology of malaria in general and cerebral malaria in particular. Furthermore, several neurological impairments, including cognitive, behavioral, and motor dysfunctions, are known to be associated with cerebral malaria. Also, the available evidence has implicated glutamate and glutamatergic pathways, coupled with a resultant alteration in serotonin, dopamine, norepinephrine, and histamine production. While seeking to improve our understanding of the pathophysiology of cerebral malaria, this article seeks to explore the possible links between host/parasite chaperones, and neurotransmitters, in relation to other molecular players in the pathology of cerebral malaria, to explore such links in antimalarial drug discovery.

Abstract
Chalcone derivatives are considered valuable species because they possess a ketoethylenic moiety, CO-CH=CH-. Due to the presence of a reactive α,β-unsaturated carbonyl group, chalcones and their derivatives possess a wide spectrum of antiproliferative, antifungal, antibacterial, antiviral, antileishmanial, and antimalarial pharmacological properties. Recent developments in heterocyclic chemistry have led to the synthesis of chalcone derivatives, which had been biologically investigated toward certain disease targets. The major aspect of this review is to present the most recent synthesis of chalcones bearing N, O, and/or S heterocycles, revealing their biological potential during the past decade (2010-2021). Based on a review of the literature, many chalcone-heterocycle hybrids appear to exhibit promise as future drug candidates owing to their similar or superior activities compared to those of the standards. Thus, this review may prove to be beneficial for the development and design of new potent therapeutic drugs based on previously developed strategies.
