Abstract
Adenosine is an endogenous purine-based nucleoside expressed nearly in all body tissues. It regulates various body functions by activating four G-protein coupled receptors, A1, A2A, A2B, and A3. These receptors are widely acknowledged as drug targets for treating different neurological, metabolic, and inflammatory diseases. Although numerous adenosine receptor inhibitors have been developed worldwide, achieving target selectivity is still a big hurdle in drug development. However, the identification of specific radioligands-based affinity assay, fluorescent ligands, and MS-based ligand assay have contributed to the development of selective and potent adenosine ligands. In recent years various small heterocyclic-based molecules have shown some promising results. Istradefylline has been approved for treating Parkinson's in Japan, while preladenant, tozadenant, CVT-6883, MRS-1523, and many more are under different phases of clinical development. The present review is focused on the quest to develop potent and selective adenosine inhibitors from 2013 to early 2021 by various research groups. The review also highlights their biological activity, selectivity, structure-activity relationship, molecular docking, and mechanistic studies. A special emphsesis on drug designing strategies has been also given the manuscript. The comprehensive compilation of research work carried out in the field will provide inevitable scope for designing and developing novel adenosine inhibitors with improved selectivity and efficacy.

Titko T, Perekhoda L, Drapak I, Tsapko Y. Modern trends in diuretics development. Eur J Med Chem 2020; 208:112855. [PMID: 33007663 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejmech.2020.112855] [Citation(s) in RCA: 17] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/03/2020] [Revised: 09/06/2020] [Accepted: 09/15/2020] [Indexed: 01/02/2023]
Abstract
Diuretics are the first-line therapy for widespread cardiovascular and non-cardiovascular diseases. Traditional diuretics are commonly prescribed for treatment in patients with hypertension, edema and heart failure, as well as with a number of kidney problems. They are diseases with high mortality, and the number of patients suffering from heart and kidney diseases is increasing year by year. The use of several classes of diuretics currently available for clinical use exhibits an overall favorable risk/benefit balance. However, they are not devoid of side effects. Hence, pharmaceutical researchers have been making efforts to develop new drugs with a better pharmacological profile. High-throughput screening, progress in protein structure analysis and modern methods of chemical modification have opened good possibilities for identification of new promising agents for preclinical and clinical testing. In this review, we provide an overview of the medicinal chemistry approaches toward the development of small molecule compounds showing diuretic activity that have been discovered over the past decade and are interesting drug candidates. We have discussed promising natriuretics/aquaretics/osmotic diuretics from such classes as: vasopressin receptor antagonists, SGLT2 inhibitors, urea transporters inhibitors, aquaporin antagonists, adenosine receptor antagonists, natriuretic peptide receptor agonists, ROMK inhibitors, WNK-SPAK inhibitors, and pendrin inhibitors.
