Abstract
Schistosomiasis, a neglected tropical disease (NTD), is one of the most prevalent parasitoses in the World. Certain freshwater snail species are the intermediate host in the life cycle of schistosome species. Controlling snails employing molluscicides is an effective, quick, and convenient intervention strategy to prevent the spread of Schistosoma species in endemic regions. Advances have been made in developing both synthetic molluscicides and molluscicides derived from plants. However, at present, the development of molluscicides is not adapted to the actual demand for snails and schistosoma controlling. We undertake a systematic review of exploitation and application of synthetic molluscicides and molluscicides derived from plants to combat intermediate host snails. The detailed molluscicidal activity, structure–activity relationship, structural feature, and possible mechanism of some molluscicides are also highlighted, which may afford an important reference for the design of new, more effective molluscicides with low environmental impact and realize the aim of controlling schistosome at transmission stages.

Synthesis, molecular docking and mosquitocidal efficacy of lawsone and its derivatives against the dengue vector Aedes aegypti L. (Diptera: Culicidae). Med Chem 2021; 18:170-180. [PMID: 34315380 DOI: 10.2174/1573406417666210727121654] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/24/2020] [Revised: 01/01/2021] [Accepted: 01/11/2021] [Indexed: 11/22/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Aedes aegypti is the primary dengue vector, a significant public health problem in many countries. Controlling the growth of Ae. aegypti is the biggest challenge in the mosquito control program, and there is a need for finding bioactive molecules to control Ae. aegypti in order to prevent dengue virus transmission. OBJECTIVE To assess the mosquitocidal property of lawsone and its 3-methyl-4H-chromen-3-yl-1-phenylbenzo[6,7]chromeno[2,3,c]pyrazole-dione derivatives (6a-6h) against various life stages of Ae. aegypti. Besides, to study the mode of action of the active compound by molecular docking and histopathological analysis. METHODS All derivatives were synthesized from the reaction between 2-hydroxy-1,4-naphthoquinone, chromene-3-carbaldehyde, and 1-phenyl-3-methyl-pyrazol-5-one by using one pot sequential multicomponent reaction. The mosquito life stages were subjected to diverse concentrations ranging from 1.25, 2.5, 5.0, and 10 ppm for lawsone and its derivatives. The structure of all synthesized compounds was characterized by spectroscopic analysis. Docking analysis was performed using autodock tools. Midgut sections of Ae. aegypti larvae were analyzed for histopathological effects. RESULTS Among the nine compounds screened, derivative 6e showed the highest mortality on Ae. aegypti life stages. The analyzed LC50 and LC90 results of derivative 6e were 3.01, 5.87 ppm, and 3.41, 6.28 ppm on larvae and pupae of Ae. aegypti, respectively. In the ovicidal assay, the derivative 6e recorded 47.2% egg mortality after 96-hour post-exposure to 10 ppm concentration. In molecular docking analysis, the derivative 6e confirmed strong binding interaction (-9.09 kcal/mol and -10.17 kcal/mol) with VAL 60 and HIS 62 of acetylcholinesterase 1 (AChE1) model and LYS 255, LYS 263 of kynurenine aminotransferase of Ae. aegypti, respectively. The histopathological results showed that the derivative 6e affected the columnar epithelial cells (CC) and peritrophic membrane (pM). CONCLUSION The derivative 6e is highly effective in the life stages of Ae. aegypti mosquito and it could be used in the integrated mosquito management programme.

Abstract
Historically, medicinal chemistry has been concerned with the approach of organic
chemistry for new drug synthesis. Considering the fruitful collections of new molecular entities,
the dedicated efforts for medicinal chemistry are rewarding. Planning and search for new
and applicable pharmacologic therapies involve the altruistic nature of the scientists. Since
the 19th century, notoriously applying isolated and characterized plant-derived compounds in
modern drug discovery and various stages of clinical development highlight its viability and
significance. Natural products influence a broad range of biological processes, covering transcription,
translation, and post-translational modification, being effective modulators of most
basic cellular processes. The research of new chemical entities through “click chemistry”
continuously opens up a map for the remarkable exploration of chemical space towards leading
natural products optimization by structure-activity relationship. Finally, in this review, we expect to gather a
broad knowledge involving triazolic natural product derivatives, synthetic routes, structures, and their biological activities.

Inhibition of Staphylococcus aureus TetK and MsrA efflux pumps by hydroxyamines derived from lapachol and norlachol. J Bioenerg Biomembr 2021; 53:149-156.

Abstract
The present study aimed to evaluate the in vitro efflux pump inhibitory capacity of hydroxyamines derived from lapachol and norlachol, where compounds 3, 4, and 5 were tested against the S. aureus strains: RN4220 carrying the pUL5054 plasmid; and IS-58, endowed with the PT181 plasmid. The substances were synthesized from 2-hydroxy-quinones, lapachol and nor-lapachol obtaining the corresponding 2-methoxylated derivatives via dimethyl sulfate alkylation in a basic medium, which then reacted chemoselectively with 2-ethanolamine and 3-propanolamine to form the corresponding amino alcohols. The antibacterial action of the substances was quantified by determining the Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC), while a microdilution assay was carried out to ascertain efflux pump inhibition of Staphylococcus aureus strains carrying the MsrA macrolide and the TetK tetracycline efflux pumps with the substances at a sub-inhibitory concentration. The results were subjected to statistical analysis by an ANOVA test and Bonferroni post hoc test. The MIC from the substances exhibited a value ≥ 1024 µg/mL. However, a significant reduction (p < 0.0001) of the erythromycin, tetracycline and ethidium bromide MIC was demonstrated when these were in combination with the substances, with this effect being due to a supposed efflux pump inhibition. The tested substances demonstrated effectiveness at decreasing the MIC of erythromycin, tetracycline and ethidium bromide, potentially by inhibiting the MsrA macrolide and the TetK tetracycline efflux pumps present in the tested S. aureus strains.

Abstract
The aim of this research was to investigate the pharmacological properties of 2-(2-hydroxyethylamine)-3-(3-methyl-2-butenyl)-1,4-dihydro-1,4-naphthalenedione, 2-(2-hydroxy-ethylamine)-3-(2-methyl-propenyl)-[1,4]naphthoquinone and 2-(3-hydroxy-propylamine)-3-(3-methyl-2-butenyl)-[1,4]naphthoquinone using computational prediction models, in addition to evaluating the in vitro antibacterial and modulatory activity of these compounds against bacterial ATCC strains and clinical isolates. The substances were synthesized from 2-hydroxy-quinones, lapachol and nor-lapachol obtaining the corresponding 2-methoxylated derivatives via dimethyl sulfate alkylation in a basic medium, these then reacted chemoselectively with 2-ethanolamine and 3-propanolamine to form the corresponding amino alcohols. The antibacterial activity and modulatory activity of the substances were assayed by broth microdilution method to determine the Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC). The molecular structures were analyzed using the ChEMBL database to predict possible pharmacological targets, which pointed to the molecule 2- (2-hydroxy-ethylamine)-3-(2-methyl-propenyl)-[1,4]naphthoquinone as a probable antibacterial agent for the proteins Replicative DNA helicase and RecA. The compounds had a low molecular weight and a small number of rotatable bonds. The MICs of the substances were not clinically significant, however, the association with gentamicin and amikacin reduced the MICs of these antibiotics. In conclusion, the combination of these substances with aminoglycosides may be a therapeutic alternative to bacterial resistance and the reduction of side effects.

Abstract
Naphthoquinones are of key importance in organic synthesis and medicinal chemistry. In the last few years, various synthetic routes have been developed to prepare bioactive compounds derived or based on lapachones. In this sense, this review is mainly focused on the synthetic aspects and strategies used for the design of these compounds on the basis of their biological activities for the development of drugs against the neglected diseases leishmaniases and Chagas disease and also cancer. Three strategies used to develop bioactive quinones are discussed and categorized: (i) C-ring modification, (ii) redox centre modification and (iii) A-ring modification. Framed within these strategies for the development of naphthoquinoidal compounds against T. cruzi. Leishmania and cancer, reactions including copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (click chemistry), palladium-catalysed cross couplings, C-H activation reactions, Ullmann couplings and heterocyclisations reported up to July 2019 will be discussed. The aim of derivatisation is the generation of novel molecules that can potentially inhibit cellular organelles/processes, generate reactive oxygen species and increase lipophilicity to enhance penetration through the plasma membrane. Modified lapachones have emerged as promising prototypes for the development of drugs against leishmaniases, Chagas disease and cancer.

Abstract
AIMS The aims of this study were to design, synthesize and to evaluate 2-hydroxy-3-phenylsulfanylmethyl-[1,4]-naphthoquinones against Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacterial strains, including methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and its biofilm, to probe for potential lead structures. METHODS AND RESULTS Thirty-six new analogues were prepared with good yields using a simple, fast, operational three-procedure reaction and a thiol addition to an ο-quinone methide using microwave irradiation. All compounds were tested against Escherichia coli ATCC 25922, Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC 27853, Proteus mirabilis ATCC 15290, Serratia marcescens ATCC 14756, Klebsiella pneumoniae ATCC 4352, Enterobacter cloacae ATCC 23355, Enterococcus faecalis ATCC 29212, S. aureus ATCC 25923, Staphylococcus simulans ATCC 27851, Staphylococcus epidermidis ATCC 12228 and a hospital strain of MRSA. Their antibacterial activity was determined using the disc diffusion method, revealing the activity of 19 compounds, mainly against Gram-positive strains. Interestingly, the minimal inhibitory concentration ranges detected for the hit molecules (32-128 μg ml-1 ) were within Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute levels. Promisingly, compound 15 affected the MRSA strain, with a reduction of up to 50% in biofilm formation, which is better than vancomycin as biofilm forms a barrier against the antibiotic that avoids its action. CONCLUSIONS After probing 36 naphthoquinones for a potential antibacterial lead structure against the bacterial biofilm, we found that compound 15 should be explored further and also should be structurally modified in the near future to test against Gram-negative strains. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY Since vancomycin is one of the last treatment options currently available, and it is unable to inhibit biofilm, the research of new antimicrobials is urgent. In this context, 2-hydroxy-3-phenylsulfanylmethyl-[1,4]-naphthoquinones proved to be a promising lead structure against MRSA and bacterial biofilm.

Abstract
Naphthoquinoidal compounds are of great interest in medicinal chemistry. In recent years, several synthetic routes have been developed to obtain bioactive molecules derived from lapachones. In this mini-review, we focus on the synthetic aspects and strategies used to design these compounds and on the biological activities of these substances for the development of drugs against the neglected diseases leishmaniasis and Chagas disease as well as malaria, tuberculosis and cancer. Three strategies used to develop bioactive naphthoquinoidal compounds are discussed: (i) C-ring modification, (ii) redox centre modification and (iii) A-ring modification. Among these strategies, reactions such as copper-catalysed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (click chemistry), palladium-catalysed cross couplings, and heterocyclisations will be discussed for the development of naphthoquinoidal compounds against Trypanosoma cruzi, Leishmania and cancer. The aim of derivatisation is the generation of novel molecules that inhibit cellular organelles/processes, generate reactive oxygen species (ROS) and increase lipophilicity to enhance penetration through the plasma membrane. Modified lapachones have emerged as promising prototypes for the development of drugs against neglected diseases and cancer.

Abstract
The molluscicidal profile and brine-shrimp bio-activity of the ethanolic extracts of plants from the Bignoniaceae family were determined. The six extracts investigated were of the stems of Melloa quadrivalvis and Tabebuia aurea, and whole plants of Adenocalymma comosum, Arrabidaea parviflora, Cuspidaria argentea and Clytostoma binatum. When tested in the laboratory, with Biomphalaria glabrata as the test snail, all six extracts gave median lethal concentrations (9-54 microg/ml) that fell well below the upper threshold, of 100 mug/ml, set for a potential molluscicide by the World Health Organization.

Abstract
Various spectroscopy techniques (UV-Vis, DRS, FT-IR, (1)H NMR, LC-MS) and theoretical computations have been employed to investigate the mechanism of the nucleophilic substitution reaction of 2,3-dichloronaphthoquinone (DCNQ) with para-substituted anilines in solid state under base- and solvent-free conditions against traditional synthetic routes. The initial formations of electron donor acceptor (EDA) adduct between DCNQ and aniline was found to be the driving force for the substitution reaction to occur in solid phase.

Based on the molluscicidal activity of ginkgolic acids (GAs) isolated from Ginkgo biloba L, a series of Z/E isomers of GA analogues were prepared and evaluated for their molluscicidal activities against the host snail Oncomelania hupensis. The results and analysis of the structure-activity relationship revealed that the E-isomers showed better molluscicidal activities than their Z-isomers. Molluscicidal activities decreased with the shortening of the alkenyl chain lengths.

Abstract
The toxic profile of lawsone (2-hydroxy-[1,4]naphthoquinone) and a series of [1,4]naphthoquinone derivatives was evaluated against the brine shrimp Artemia salina and against the mollusk Biomphalaria glabrata, the main transmitting vector of schistosomiasis in Brazil. Of the seventeen compounds tested nine fell below the threshold of 100 µg/mL set for potential molluscicidal activity by the World Health Organization. As a general rule derivatives with non-polar substituents presented the highest molluscicidal activities. These substances showed significant toxicity in A. salina lethality bioassay.

Abstract
Several arylamino derivatives of nor-beta-lapachone were synthesized in moderate to high yields and found to show very potent cytotoxicity against six neoplastic cancer cells: SF-295 (central nervous system), HCT-8 (colon), MDAMB-435 (breast), HL-60 (leukaemia), PC-3 (prostate), and B-16 (murine melanoma), with IC(50) below 1 microg/mL. Their cytotoxicities were compared to doxorubicin and with their synthetic precursors, beta-lapachone and nor-beta-lapachone. The activity against a normal murine fibroblast L-929 showed that some of the compounds were selective against cancer cells. The absence of hemolytic activity (EC(50)>200 microg/mL), performed with erythrocyte suspensions, suggests that the cytotoxicity of the compounds was not related to membrane damage of mouse erythrocytes. For comparison purposes, one isomeric compound based on nor-alpha-lapachone was also synthesized and showed lower activity than the related ortho-derivative. The modified arylamino quinones appear as interesting new lead compounds in anti-cancer drug development.

Abstract
Starting from alpha- and beta-lapachones, in this work we compared the biological and theoretical profile of several oxyran derivatives of lapachone as potential trypanocidal agents. Our biological results showed that the oxyrans tested act as trypanocidal agents against Trypanosoma cruzi with minimal cytotoxicity in the VERO cell line compared to naphthoquinones. The oxyran derivative of alpha-lapachone (7a) showed to be one of the most potent compounds. In our molecular modeling study, we analyzed the C-ring moiety and the redox center of beta-lapachone molecule as the moieties responsible for the trypanocidal and cytotoxic effects on mammalian cell line. The computational methods used to delineate the structural requirements for the trypanocidal profile pointed out that the transposition of the C-ring moiety of beta-lapachone, combined with its oxyran ring, introduced important molecular requirements for trypanocidal activity in the HOMO energy, HOMO orbital coefficient, LUMO density, electrostatic potential map, dipole moment vector, and calculated logP (clogP) parameter. This study could lead to the development of new antichagasic medicines based on alpha-lapachone analogs.
