Abstract
(Thio)ureas ((T)Us) and benzothiazoles (BTs) each have demonstrated to have a great variety of biological activities. When these groups come together, the 2-(thio)ureabenzothizoles [(T)UBTs] are formed, improving the physicochemical as well as the biological properties, making these compounds very interesting in medicinal chemistry. Frentizole, bentaluron and methabenzthiazuron are examples of UBTs used for treatment of rheumatoid arthritis and as wood preservatives and herbicides in winter corn crops, respectively. With this antecedent, we recently reported a bibliographic review about the synthesis of this class of compounds, from the reaction of substituted 2-aminobenzothiazoles (ABTs) with iso(thio)cyanates, (thio)phosgenes, (thio)carbamoyl chlorides, 1,1'-(thio)carbonyldiimidazoles, and carbon disulfide. Herein, we prepared a bibliographic review about those features of design, chemical synthesis, and biological activities relating to (T)UBTs as potential therapeutic agents. This review is about synthetic methodologies generated from 1968 to the present day, highlighting the focus to transform (T)UBTs to compounds containing a range substituents, as illustrated with 37 schemes and 11 figures and concluded with 148 references. In this topic, the scientists dedicated to medicinal chemistry and pharmaceutical industry will find useful information for the design and synthesis of this interesting group of compounds with the aim of repurposing these compounds.

Abstract
Transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) activation by capsaicin binding increased intracellular calcium influx and stimulated adipocyte-to-adipocyte communication, leading to lipolysis. Generally, enhancement of π-stacking capabilities improves certain binding interactions. Notably, nitroarenes exhibit strong binding interactions with aromatic amino acid side chains in proteins. New capsaicinoid analogs were designed by substitution of the OCH3 group with a nitrogen dioxide (NO2) group on the vanillyl ring to investigate how π-stacking interactions in capsaicinoid analogs contribute to lipolysis. Capsaicinoid analogs, nitro capsaicin (5), and nitro dihydrocapsaicin (6) were prepared in moderate yields via coupling of a nitroaromatic amine salt and fatty acids. Oil Red O staining and triglyceride assays with 10 µM loading of capsaicin (CAP), dihydrocapsaicin (DHC), 5, and 6 were performed to investigate their effect on lipolysis in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. Both assay results indicated that 5 and 6 decreased lipid accumulation by 13.6% and 14.7%, respectively, and significantly reduced triglyceride content by 26.9% and 28.4%, respectively, in comparison with the control experiment. Furthermore, the decrease in triglyceride content observed in response to nitroarene capsaicinoid analogs was approximately 2-folds higher than that of CAP and DHC. These results arose from the NO2 group augmented π-π stacking with Tyr511 and the attractive charge interaction with Glu570 affecting binding interactions with TRPV1 receptors.

Abstract
A series of TRPV1 agonists with amide, reverse amide, and thiourea groups in the B-region and their corresponding α-methylated analogues were investigated. Whereas the α-methylation of the amide B-region enhanced the binding affinities and potencies as agonists, that of the reverse amide and thiourea led to a reduction in receptor affinity. The analysis indicated that proper hydrogen bonding as well as steric effects in the B-region are critical for receptor binding.

Abstract
The transient receptor potential vanilloid member 1 (TRPV1), an integrator of multiple pain-producing stimuli, is regarded nowadays as an important biological target for the discovery of novel analgesics. Here, we describe the first experimental evidence for the behavior of an old family of analgesic dipeptides, namely Xaa-Trp(Nps) and Trp(Nps)-Xaa (Xaa=Lys, Arg) derivatives, as potent TRPV1 channel blockers. We also report the synthesis and biological investigation of a series of new conformationally restricted Trp(Nps)-dipeptide derivatives with improved TRPV1/NMDA selectivity. Compound 15 b, which incorporates an N-terminal 2S-azetidine-derived Arg residue, was the most selective compound in this series. Collectively, a new family of TRPV1 channel blockers emerged from our results, although further modifications are required to fine-tune the potency/selectivity/toxicity balance.

Abstract
Activation of the capsaicin receptor (VR1 or TRPV1) in bronchial epithelial cells by capsaicinoids and other vanilloids promotes pro-inflammatory cytokine production and cell death. The purpose of this study was to investigate the role of TRPV1-mediated calcium flux from extracellular sources as an initiator of these responses and to define additional cellular pathways that control cell death. TRPV1 antagonists and reduction of calcium concentrations in treatment solutions attenuated calcium flux, induction of interleukin-6 and 8 gene expression, and IL-6 secretion by cells treated with capsaicin or resiniferatoxin. Most TRPV1 antagonists also attenuated cell death, but the relative potency and extent of protection did not directly correlate with inhibition of total calcium flux. Treatment solutions with reduced calcium content or chelators had no effect on cytotoxicity. Inhibitors of arachidonic acid metabolism and cyclo-oxygenases also prevented cell death indicating that TRPV1 agonists disrupted basal arachidonic acid metabolism and altered cyclo-oxygenase function via a TRPV1-dependent mechanism in order to produce toxicity. These data confirm previous results demonstrating calcium flux through TRPV1 acts as a trigger for cytokine production by vanilloids, and provides new mechanistic insights on mechanisms of cell death produced by TRPV1 agonists in respiratory epithelial cells.

Abstract
In a continuing effort to elucidate the structure-activity relationships of the lead antagonist N-[2-(3,4-dimethylbenzyl)-3-pivaloyloxypropyl]-N'-[4-(methylsulfonylamino)benzyl]thiourea (1), the distances between the proposed four pharmacophores in 1 have been varied by insertion or deletion of one carbon to optimize their fit to the receptor. In addition, the acyloxy group of the C region was replaced with amide and N-hydroxy amide to identify the pharmacophoric importance of the ester group in the C2 region. The results indicated that the pharmacophoric arrangement of 1 was optimal for receptor binding affinity and antagonism, and the ester of the C2 region was significant for receptor binding. Among the derivatives, compound 19 showed distinct behavior with a 2-fold improvement in antagonism but a 13-fold reduction in binding affinity compared to 1. The partial separation of pharmacophoric requirements of these two assays has been noted before and compound 19 is thus selective for the calcium entry-linked receptor population. The conformational analysis of 1 generated three distinct conformers having different types of hydrophobic interactions, which will be utilized for exploring the active conformation of the VR1 ligand.
