Abstract
Thiosemicarbazones (TSCNs) constitute a broad family of compounds (R1R2C=N-NH-C(S)- NR3R4), particularly attractive because many of them display some biological activity against a wide range of microorganisms and cancer cells. Their activity can be related to their electronic and structural properties, which offer a rich set of donor atoms for metal coordination and a high electronic delocalization providing different binding modes for biomolecules. Heterocycles such as pyrrole, imidazole and triazole are present in biological molecules such as Vitamine B12 and amino acids and could potentially target multiple biological processes. Considering this, we have explored the chemistry and biological properties of thiosemicarbazones series and their complexes bearing heterocycles such as pyrrole, imidazole, thiazole and triazole. We focus at the chemistry and cytotoxicity of those derivatives to find out the structure activity relationships, and particularly we analyzed those examples with the TSCN units in which the mechanism of action information has been profoundly studied and pathways determined, to promote future studies for heterocycle derivatives.

Abstract
As nitrogen-containing five-membered heterocyclic structural units, the substituted pyrazole derivatives have a broad spectrum of pharmacological activities, especially 4,5-dihydro-1H-pyrazoles that also commonly known as 2-pyrazolines. Since 2010, considerable studies have been found that the 2-pyrazoline derivatives possess potent anticancer activities. In the present review, it covers the pyrazoline derivatives reported by literature from 2010 till date (2010-2019). This review aims to establish the relationship between the anticancer activities variation and different substituents introduced into a 2-pyrazoline core, which could provide important pharmacophore clues for the discovery of new anticancer agents containing 2-pyrazoline scaffold.

1-[(4'-Chlorophenyl) carbonyl-4-(aryl) thiosemicarbazide derivatives as potent urease inhibitors: Synthesis, in vitro and in silico studies. Bioorg Chem 2018; 79:363-371.

Abstract
A series of 1-[(4'-chlorophenyl)carbonyl-4-(aryl)thiosemicarbazide derivatives 1-25 was synthesized and characterized by spectroscopic techniques such as EI-MS and 1H NMR. All compounds were screened for urease inhibitory activity in vitro and demonstrated excellent inhibitory activity in the range of IC50 = 0.32 ± 0.01-25.13 ± 0.13 μM as compared to the standard thiourea (IC50 = 21.25 ± 0.13 μM). Amongst the potent analogs, compounds 3 (IC50 = 2.31 ± 0.01 μM), 6 (IC50 = 2.14 ± 0.04 μM), 10 (IC50 = 1.14 ± 0.06 μM), 20 (IC50 = 2.15 ± 0.05 μM), and 25 (IC50 = 0.32 ± 0.01 μM) are many folds more active than the standard. Structure-activity relationship (SAR) was rationalized by looking at the effect of diversely substituted aryl ring on inhibitory potential which predicted that regardless of the nature of substituents, their positions on aryl ring is worth important for the potent activity. Furthermore, to verify these interpretations, in silico study was performed on all compounds and a good correlation was perceived between the biological evaluation and docking study of compounds.

Abstract
A large number of protozoans infect humans but Entamoeba histolytica is the only organism responsible for causing amoebiasis, a deadly disease after malaria. Numerous heterocycle-based antiamoebic agents have been previously synthesized as E. histolytica inhibitors and while some of these agents have shown moderate activity, the search for a novel and ideal antiamoebic compound is still ongoing. In this digest Letter, we present the latest data on antiamoebic agents from 2011 to 2016 based on the different classes of heterocyclic agents.

Abstract
An in-house database of 520 compounds was docked against Entamoeba histolytica thioredoxin reductase (EhTrR), a promising target for the treatment of amoebiasis. Amongst these, some metronidazole (MTZ)-triazole hybrids were ranked high, with docking scores from -10.23 to -7.56. Studies of the binding orientations and conformations show that the head groups of MTZ-triazole hybrids interact with the arginine residues within the binding pocket of EhTrR, making it clear that such is the optimal and most reliable orientation for this class of compounds. The top-ten MTZ-triazole hybrids were then selected for evaluation of their activity against the HM1:IMSS strain of amoeba. The most active compound, 2-pyridyl-(1,2,3-triazolyl)metronidazole 10, with an IC50 value of 8.4 nM, was significantly more active than the standard drug MTZ alone. Docking studies revealed that compound 10 may act as an EhTrR inhibitor with activity in the nanomolar range and satisfactory ADME properties; it is a suitable candidate to be carried forward as a potential lead in the discovery of drugs to combat amoebiasis.
