Abstract
Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disease characterized by high blood glucose levels and usually associated with several chronic pathologies. Aldose reductase and protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B enzymes have identified as two novel molecular targets associated with the onset and progression of type II diabetes and related comorbidities. Although many inhibitors against these enzymes have already found in the field of diabetic mellitus, the research for discovering more effective and selective agents with optimal pharmacokinetic properties continues. In addition, dual inhibition of these target proteins has proved as a promising therapeutic approach. A variety of diverse scaffolds are presented in this review for the future design of potent and selective inhibitors of aldose reductase and protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B based on the most important structural features of both enzymes. The discovery of novel dual aldose reductase and protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B inhibitors could be effective therapeutic molecules for the treatment of insulin-resistant type II diabetes mellitus. The methods used comprise a literature survey and X-ray crystal structures derived from Protein Databank (PDB). Despite the available therapeutic options for type II diabetes mellitus, the inhibitors of aldose reductase and protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B could be two promising approaches for the effective treatment of hyperglycemia and diabetes-associated pathologies. Due to the poor pharmacokinetic profile and low in vivo efficacy of existing inhibitors of both targets, the research turned to more selective and cell-permeable agents as well as multi-target molecules.

Abstract
Aldose Reductase 2 (ALR2), the rate-limiting enzyme of the polyol pathway, plays an important role in detoxification of some toxic aldehydes. Under hyperglycemia, this enzyme overactivates and causes diabetic complications (DC). Therefore, ALR2 inhibition has been established as a potential approach to manage these complications. Several ALR2 inhibitors have been reported, but none of them could reach US FDA approval. One of the main reasons is their poor selectivity over ALR1, which leads to the toxicity. The current review underlines the molecular connectivity of ALR2 with DC and comparative analysis of the catalytic domains of ALR2 and ALR1, to better understand the selectivity issues. This report also discusses the key features required for ALR2 inhibition and to limit toxicity due to off-target activity.

Abstract
Aim: Targeting aldose reductase and oxidative stress with quinoxalin-2(1 H)-one derivatives having a 1-hydroxypyrazole head as the bioisosteric replacement of carboxylic acid. Methodology & results: Aldose reductase inhibition, selectivity and antioxidant potency of all the synthesized compounds were evaluated, and binding modes were studied by molecular docking. Most of the derivatives showed potent and selective aldose reductase inhibition, and among them 13d was the most active (IC50 = 0.107 μM), suggesting success of the bioisosteric strategy. Phenolic 3,4-dihydroxyl compound 13f showed strong antioxidant ability even comparable to that of the well-known antioxidant Trolox. Conclusion: The present study identified the excellent bioisostere of the 1-hydroxypyrazole head group along with phenolic hydroxyl and vinyl spacer in C3 side chain on constructing quinoxalinone-based multifunctional aldose reductase inhibitors.

Abstract
To develop multifunctional aldose reductase (AKR1B1) inhibitors for anti-diabetic complications, a novel series of 2-phenoxypyrido[3,2-b]pyrazin-3(4H)-one derivatives were designed and synthesised. Most of the derivatives were found to be potent and selective against AKR1B1, and 2-(7-chloro-2-(3,5-dihydroxyphenoxy)-3-oxopyrido[3,2-b]pyrazin-4(3H)-yl) acetic acid (4k) was the most active with an IC50 value of 0.023 µM. Moreover, it was encouraging to find that some derivatives showed strong antioxidant activity, and among them, the phenolic 3,5-dihydroxyl compound 4l with 7-bromo in the core structure was proved to be the most potent, even comparable to that of the well-known antioxidant Trolox. Thus the results suggested success in the construction of potent and selective AKR1B1 inhibitors with antioxidant activity.

Abstract
Aldose reductase (AKR1B1) has been considered as a significant target for designing drugs to counteract the development of diabetic complications. In the present study, molecular dynamics (MD) simulations and molecular mechanics generalized Born surface area (MM-GB/SA) calculations were performed to make sure which tautomer is the preferred one among three tautomeric forms (Mtia1, Mtia2, and Mtia3) of 3-Mercapto-5H-1,2,4-triazino[5,6-b]indole-5-acetic acid (Mtia) for binding to AKR1B1. The overall structural features and the results of calculated binding free energies indicate that Mtia1 and Mtia2 have more superiority than Mtia3 in terms of binding to AKR1B1. Furtherly, the local active site conformational characteristics and non-covalent interaction analysis were identified. The results indicate that the combination of Mtia2 and AKR1B1 is more stable than that of Mtia1. Furthermore, two extra hydrogen bonds between AKR1B1 and Mtia2 are found with respect to Mtia1. In addition, Mtia2 makes slightly stronger electrostatic interaction with the positively charged nicotinamide group of NADP+ than Mtia1. Based on the results above, Mtia2 is the preferred tautomeric form among the three tautomers. Our study can provide an insight into the details of the interaction between AKR1B1 and Mtia at the atomic level, and will be helpful for the further design of AKR1B1 inhibitors.

Abstract
A series of novel curcumin analogues has been designed, synthesized and tested in vitro/in vivo as potential multi-target agents. Their anti-proliferative and anti-inflammatory activities were studied. Compounds 1b and 2b were stronger inhibitors of soybean lipoxygenase (LOX) than curcumin. Analogue 1b was also the most potent aldose reductase (ALR2) inhibitor. Two compounds, (1a and 1f) exhibited in vivo anti-inflammatory activity comparable to that of indomethacin, whereas derivative 1i exhibited even higher activity. The derivatives were also tested for their anti-proliferative activity using three different human cancer cell lines. Compounds 1a, 1b, 1d and 2b exhibited significant growth inhibitory activity as compared to curcumin, against all three cancer cell lines. Lipophilicity was determined as R(M) values using RPTLC and theoretically. The results are discussed in terms of the structural characteristics of the compounds. Docking simulations were performed on LOX and ALR2 inhibitor 1b and curcumin. Compound 1b is well fitted in the active site of ALR2, binding to the ALR2 enzyme in a similar way to curcumin. Allosteric interactions may govern the LOX-inhibitor binding.
