[PMID: 38763480 DOI: 10.1016/j.bmcl.2024.129800] [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: 04/12/2024] [Revised: 05/09/2024] [Accepted: 05/15/2024] [Indexed: 05/21/2024]
Abstract
In a quest to discover new antimalarial and antitubercular drugs, we have designed and synthesized a series of novel triazole-quinazolinone hybrids. The in vitro screening of the triazole-quinazolinone hybrid entities against the plasmodium species P. falciparum offered potent antimalarial molecules 6c, 6d, 6f, 6g, 6j & 6k owing comparable activity to the reference drugs. Furthermore, the target compounds were evaluated in vitro against Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) H37Rv strain. Among the screened compounds, 6c, 6d and 6l were found to be the most active molecules with a MIC values of 19.57-40.68 μM. The cytotoxicity of the most active compounds was studied against RAW 264.7 cell line by MTT assay and no toxicity was observed. The computational study including drug likeness and ADMET profiling, DFT, and molecular docking study was done to explore the features of target molecules. The compounds 6a, 6g, and 6k exhibited highest binding affinity of -10.3 kcal/mol with docked molecular targets from M. tuberculosis. Molecular docking study indicates that all the molecules are binding to the falcipain 2 protease (PDB: 6SSZ) of the P. falciparum. Our findings indicated that these new triazole-quinazolinone hybrids may be considered hit molecules for further optimization studies.

Cui J, Wang Y, Liang X, Zhao J, Ji Y, Tan W, Dong F, Guo Z. Synthesis, antimicrobial activity, antioxidant activity and molecular docking of novel chitosan derivatives containing glycine Schiff bases as potential succinate dehydrogenase inhibitors. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 267:131407. [PMID: 38582463 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.131407] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/08/2023] [Revised: 03/10/2024] [Accepted: 04/03/2024] [Indexed: 04/08/2024]
Abstract
Succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) is an important inner mitochondrial membrane-bound enzyme involved in redox reactions during the tricarboxylic acid cycle. Therefore, a series of novel chitosan derivatives were designed and synthesized as potential microbicides targeting SDH and precisely characterized by FTIR, 1H NMR and SEM. Their antifungal and antibacterial activities were evaluated against Botrytis cinerea, Fusarium graminearum, Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli. The bioassays revealed that these chitosan derivatives exerted significant antifungal effects, with four of the compounds achieving 100 % inhibition of Fusarium graminearum merely at a concentration of 0.5 mg/mL. Additionally, CSGDCH showed 79.34 % inhibition of Botrytis cinerea at a concentration of 0.1 mg/mL. In vitro antibacterial tests revealed that CSGDCH and CSGDBH have excellent Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli inhibition with MICs of 0.0156 mg/mL and 0.03125 mg/mL, respectively. Molecular docking studies have been carried out to explore the binding energy and binding mode of chitosan and chitosan derivatives with SDH. The analyses indicated that chitosan derivatives targeted the active site of the SDH protein more precisely, disrupting its normal function and ultimately repressing the growth of microbial cells. Furthermore, the chitosan derivatives were also evaluated biologically for antioxidation, and all of these compounds had a greater degree of reducing power, superoxide radical, hydroxyl radical and DPPH-radical scavenging activity than chitosan. This research has the potential for the development of agricultural antimicrobial agents.

Abstract
Since Alzheimer disease is one of the most prevalent types of dementia with a high mortality and disability rate, so development of multi-target drugs becomes the major strategy for battling AD. This study shows the development of a series of quinazolinone based derivatives as novel, multifunctional anti-AD drugs that exhibit both cholinesterase inhibitoryand anti-inflammatory properties. The preliminary results of the in vitro AChE inhibition activity showed that compounds 4b, 5a, 6f, 6h and 7b were better represented for further evaluation. Furthermore, in-vivo AChE inhibition activity and behavior Morris water maze test against donepezil as reference drug were evaluated. Additionally, hippocampal inflammatory markers; TNF-α, NFĸB, IL-1β and IL-6 and antioxidant markers; SOD and MDA were assessed to evaluate the efficacy of quinazolinone derivatives against AD hallmarks. The results showed that 6f, 6h and 7b have promising anti-acetylcholinesterase, anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activities thus, have a significant effect in treatment of AD. Moreover, Histopathological examination revealed that 6f, 6h and 7b derivatives have neuroprotective effect against neuronal damage caused by induced scopolamine model in mice. Finally, the binding ability of the synthesized derivatives to the target, AChE was investigated through molecular docking which reflected significant interactions to the target based on their docking binding scores. Hence, the newly designed quinazolinone derivatives possess promising anti-acetylcholinesterase activity and challenging for the management of AD in the future.

Abstract
A HPLC-UV guided fractionation of the culture broth of Streptomyces sp. CNQ-617 has led to the isolation of a new quinazolinone derivative, actinoquinazolinone (1), as well as two known compounds, 7-hydroxy-6-methoxy-3,4-dihydroquinazolin-4-one (2) and 7-methoxy-8-hydroxy cycloanthranilylproline (3). The interpretation of 1D, 2D NMR, and MS spectroscopic data revealed the planar structure of 1. Furthermore, compound 1 suppressed invasion ability by inhibiting epithelial-mesenchymal transition markers (EMT) in AGS cells at a concentration of 5 µM. In addition, compound 1 decreased the expression of seventeen genes related to human cell motility and slightly suppressed the signal transducer and activator of the transcription 3 (STAT3) signal pathway in AGS cells. Together, these results demonstrate that 1 is a potent inhibitor of gastric cancer cells.

Abstract
Dipeptidyl peptidase III (DPP III) is a zinc-dependent enzyme that sequentially hydrolyzes biologically active peptides by cleaving dipeptides from their N-termini. Although its fundamental role is not been fully elucidated, human DPP III (hDPP III) has been recognized in several pathophysiological processes of interest for drug development. In this article 27 quinazolinone-Schiff's bases were studied for their inhibitory activity against hDPP III combining an in vitro experiment with a computational approach. The biochemical assay showed that most compounds exhibited inhibitory activity at the 100 μM concentration. The best QSAR model included descriptors from the following 2D descriptor groups: information content indices, 2D autocorrelations, and edge adjacency indices. Five compounds were found to be the most potent inhibitors with IC50 values below 10 µM, while molecular docking predicted that these compounds bind to the central enzyme cleft and interact with residues of the substrate binding subsites. Molecular dynamics simulations of the most potent inhibitor (IC50=0.96 µM) provided valuable information explaining the role of PHE109, ARG319, GLU327, GLU329, and ILE386 in the mechanism of the inhibitor binding and stabilization. This is the first study that gives insight into quinazolinone-Schiff's bases binding to this metalloenzyme.Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.

Synthesis, Characterization, Theoretical and Experimental Anticancer Evaluation of Novel Cocrystals of 5-Fluorouracil and Schiff Bases against SW480 Colorectal Carcinoma. Pharmaceutics 2023; 15:1929. [PMID: 37514115 PMCID: PMC10383612 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics15071929] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/30/2023] [Revised: 06/28/2023] [Accepted: 07/03/2023] [Indexed: 07/30/2023] Open
Abstract
The chemotherapeutic agent known as 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) is an artificial fluoropyrimidine antimetabolite that has been widely used for its antineoplastic properties. Cocrystals of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) with five different Schiff bases (benzylidene-urea (BU), benzylidene-aniline (BA), salicylidene-aniline (SA), salicylidene-phenylhydrazine (SPH), and para-hydroxy benzylideneaniline (HBA)) are reported in this study. The newly synthesized cocrystals were analyzed by FTIR and PXRD. In this study, we investigated the antitumor efficacy of 5-FU derivatives in SW480 colon cancer cells via MTT assay at varying dose concentrations. Molecular docking was performed to predict the binding mechanism of TS with various 5-FU complexes. FTIR revealed the presence of respective functional groups in the prepared cocrystals. The frequencies (v) of N-H (3220.24 cm-1) and carbonyl groups (1662.38 cm-1) in the spectrum of 5-FU shifted considerably in all derivative cocrystal new interactions. There was a noticeable transformation in the PXRD peak of 5-FU at 2θ = 28.37° in all derivatives. The novelty of the present study lies in the fact that 5-FU-BA showed an anticancer potential IC50 (6.4731) far higher than that of 5-FU (12.116), almost comparable to that of the reference drug doxorubicin (3.3159), against SW480 cancel cell lines, followed by 5-Fu-HBA (10.2174). The inhibition rates of 5-FU-BA and 5-FU-HBA were highest among the derivatives (99.85% and 99.37%, respectively) in comparison with doxorubicin (97.103%). The results revealed that the synthesized 5-FU cocrystals have promising antitumor efficacy compared with previously reported 5-FU and 5-FU. The activities of the cocrystals were rationalized by a molecular modeling approach to envisage binding modes with the target cancer protein.

Abstract
The efficient synthesis of amino acid Schiff base copper(II) complexes using a microfluidic device was successfully achieved. Schiff bases and their complexes are remarkable compounds due to their high biological activity and catalytic function. Conventionally, products are synthesized under reaction conditions of 40 °C for 4 h using a beaker-based method. However, in this paper, we propose using a microfluidic channel to enable quasi-instantaneous synthesis at room temperature (23 °C). The products were characterized using UV-Vis, FT-IR, and MS spectroscopy. The efficient generation of compounds using microfluidic channels has the potential to significantly contribute to the efficiency of drug discovery and material development due to high reactivity.

Abstract
Conventional strategies for treating inflammatory bowel disease merely relieve inflammation and excessive immune response, but fail to solve the underlying causes of IBD, such as disrupted gut microbiota and intestinal barrier. Recently, natural probiotics have shown tremendous potential for the treatment of IBD. However, probiotics are not recommended for IBD patients, as they may cause bacteremia or sepsis. Herein, for the first time, we constructed artificial probiotics (Aprobiotics) based on artificial enzyme-dispersed covalent organic frameworks (COFs) as the "organelle" and a yeast shell as the membrane of the Aprobiotics to manage IBD. The COF-based artificial probiotics, with the function of natural probiotics, could markedly relieve IBD by modulating the gut microbiota, suppressing intestinal inflammation, protecting the intestinal epithelial cells, and regulating immunity. This nature-inspired approach may aid in the design of more artificial systems for the treatment of various incurable diseases, such as multidrug-resistant bacterial infection, cancer, and others.

Abstract
The current research reports the synthesis of 14 para-substituted thiosemicarbazone derivatives in good to excellent yields using standard procedures. Initially, 4-ethoxybenzaldehyde (1) and 4-nitrobenzaldehyde (2) were refluxed with thiosemicarbazide in the presence of acetic acid in ethanol for 4-5 h. Then, various substituted phenacyl bromides were treated with the desired thiosemicarbazones (3 and 4) in the presence of triethylamine in ethanol with constant stirring for 5-6 h. The resulting derivatives were confirmed through electron impact mass spectrometry and 1H NMR spectroscopy and evaluated for anticholinesterase inhibitory activity. Among the series, four compounds, 19, 17, 7, and 6, showed potent inhibitory activity against the acetylcholinesterase (AChE) enzyme, having IC50 values of 110.19 ± 2.32, 114.57 ± 0.15, 140.52 ± 0.11, and 160.04 ± 0.02 μM, respectively, compared with standard galantamine (IC50 = 104.5 ± 1.20 μM). Similarly, compounds 19 (IC50 = 145.11 ± 1.03 μM), 9 (IC50 = 147.20 ± 0.09 μM), 17 (IC50 = 150.36 ± 0.18 μM), and 6 (IC50 = 190.21 ± 0.13 μM) were the most excellent inhibitors of butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) when compared with the standard drug galantamine (IC50 = 156.8 ± 1.50 μM). In silico studies were accomplished on the produced derivatives in order to explain the binding interface of compounds with the active sites of AChE and BChE enzymes.

Abstract
The two synthesis of Schiff base SB (Indole-3-carboxalidene-1-phenylsemicarbazide) and organophosphorus Schiff base OPSB (Indole-3-carboxalidene diphenylphosphate-1-phenylsemicarbazide) have been prepared and characterized by elemental analyses, IR, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, UV–Vis and XRD. A series of complexes of the type [M(SB)2Cl2].2H2O and [M(OPSB)Cl.(H2O)2].Cl, where M = Cu(II), Ni(II) and Co(II) have been synthesized and the chemical structures of them were established by magnetic susceptibility, conductance measurements, elemental analyses, IR, UV–Vis. These results suggest that the metal complexes have octahedral geometry. X-ray powder diffraction analysis of ligands and SB complexes indicate that they are crystalline in nature and within nano range. The molecular docking of [Co(OPSB)Cl.(H2O)2].Cl is discussed using MOE software to understand the binding pattern of the investigated compound towards target proteins Bacillus subtilis (PDB ID: 2RHL), Staphylococcus aureus (PDB ID: 4URM), Escherichia coli (PDB ID: 4PRV), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PDB ID: 4JVI). All compounds have been evaluated for their antimicrobial. The ligands and OPSB complexes showed high antioxidant activity.

Abstract
Multidrug resistance and infectious disease have enormous spread despite drug discovery and development advancements. 1, 2, 4 -triazoles have been extensively studied, playing an imperative role in many pathologic conditions. A series of Schiff base triazoles; derived from Indole -3- acetic acid with substituted Benzaldehydes (5a-5g) were designed, synthesized, and evaluated through various Spectroanalytical techniques. SwissADME was used to assess physicochemical properties and pharmacokinetic drug-likeliness behavior. (5a-5g) were evaluated for their varied biological potential through antioxidant, antimicrobial, enzyme inhibition, and cytotoxic evaluation. Schiff bases express drug-like nature as they follow Lipinski's rule of five. 5b showed good antioxidant potential in total antioxidant capacity (TAC) and total reducing power (TRP) assays and was most active in the library in % free radical scavenging assay (%FRSA), showing 32% inhibition at 50 μg/mL concentration. Compounds showed antibacterial activity against various tested strains. 5e and 5f showed a minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) value of 3.12 μg/mL for P.aeruginosa and K.pneumoniae, respectively. In the antifungal assay, only 5e inhibited one strain with a zone of inhibition >6 mm. These synthetic molecules possess good cytotoxic potential in the Brine Shrimp Lethality screening; 5c, 5d, and 5f exhibited LC50 =5.7 μg/mL. In the protein kinase inhibition assay, 5a, 5b, and 5g demonstrated inhibitory potential, showcasing the zone of inhibition as 7.5-10.5 mm for the bald one and 6-7.5 for the clear zone. These findings suggest that the compounds have antibacterial and cytotoxic potential, and there is a chance for further research and development in this area.

Abstract
The development of hybrid molecules with significant human therapeutic properties is one of the main approaches of pharmaceutical research. One of the most important pharmacophores is the quinazolin-4(3H)-one heterocycle moiety, due to its wide range of biological activities. By its derivatization with polyphenolic compounds, in our previous research, it proved to possess a good antiradical activity of ortho-diphenolic derivatives of quinazolin-4(3H)-one. In this study, we developed two new series of compounds, with an additional phenolic group or with a methyl group on the thioacetohydrazone fragment. The methods used to evaluate the activity of the compounds were radical scavenging, reduction of oxidizing reagents and transition metals' ions chelation assays. Quantum descriptors were also calculated in order to evaluate the influence of substituents and their position on the activity of the compounds. The cytotoxic activity was evaluated using normal human foreskin fibroblast cells (BJ) and two cancerous cell lines, lung adenocarcinoma cells (A549) and prostate carcinoma cells (LNCaP). The results obtained for the pyrogallol derivatives showed a high antioxidant activity compared to ascorbic acid and Trolox. All the synthesized compounds displayed a higher cytotoxicity against the cancerous cell types and a high cytocompatibility with the normal cells. The antioxidant activity was deeply influenced by the addition of the third phenolic group in the synthesized molecules.

Abstract
Quinazoline is an essential scaffold, known to be linked with various biological activities. Some of the prominent biological activities of this system are analgesic, anti-inflammatory, anti-hypertensive, anti-bacterial, anti-diabetic, anti-malarial, sedative–hypnotic, anti-histaminic, anti-cancer, anti-convulsant, anti-tubercular, and anti-viral activities. This diversity in the pharmacological response of the quinazoline system has encouraged medicinal chemists to study and discover this system and its multitude of potential against several biological activities. Many of these studies have successfully investigated the structure–activity relationship to explore the specific structural features of their biological targets. The developing understanding of quinazoline derivatives and their biological targets presents opportunities for the discovery of novel therapeutics. This review represents different aspects of medicinal chemistry, including drug design, structure–activity relationship, and the mode of action of some analgesic and anti-inflammatory quinazoline compounds. It pays comprehensive attention to the analgesic and anti-inflammatory activities of quinazolines from the viewpoint of drug discovery and its development.

Abstract
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a multifactorial disorder strongly involving the formation of amyloid-β (Aβ) oligomers, which subsequently aggregate into the disease characteristic insoluble amyloid plaques, in addition to oxidative stress, inflammation and increased acetylcholinesterase activity. Moreover, Aβ oligomers interfere with the expression and activity of Glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK3) and Protein kinase B (PKB), also known as AKT. In the present study, the potential multimodal effect of two synthetic isatin thiosemicarbazones (ITSCs), which have been previously shown to prevent Aβ aggregation was evaluated. Both compounds resulted in fully reversing the Aβ-mediated toxicity in SK-NS-H cells treated with exogenous Aβ peptides at various pre-incubation time points and at 1 μM. Cell survival was not recovered when compounds were applied after Aβ cell treatment. The ITSCs were non-toxic against wild type and 5xFAD primary hippocampal cells. They reversed the inhibition of Akt and GSK-3β phosphorylation in 5xFAD cells. Finally, they exhibited good antioxidant potential and moderate lipoxygenase and acetylcholinesterase inhibition activity. Overall, these results suggest that isatin thiosemicarbazone is a suitable scaffold for the development of multimodal anti-AD agents.

Abstract
Aiming to discover new antihyperlipidemic agents, a new set of quinazolinone-fibrate hybrids 9a-r bearing the essential features for peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-α (PPARα) agonistic activity was synthesized and the structures were confirmed by different spectral data. All the target compounds were screened for their PPARα agonistic activity. Compounds 9o and 9q exhibited potent activity, with EC50 values better than that of fenofibrate by 8.7- and 27-fold, respectively. Molecular docking investigations were performed for all the newly synthesized compounds in the active site of the PPARα receptor to study their interactions and energies in the receptor. Moreover, the antihyperlipidemic and antioxidant activities of compounds 9o and 9q were determined using Triton WR-1339-induced hyperlipidemic rats. Compound 9q exhibited effective hypolipidemic activity in a dose-dependent manner, where it significantly reduced the serum levels of total cholesterol, triglycerides, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and very-low-density lipoprotein cholesterol and increased the level of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol. Furthermore, it possesses a powerful antioxidant profile where it significantly elevated the levels of reduced glutathione as well as the total antioxidant capacity and significantly decreased the malondialdehyde level. The histopathological studies revealed that compound 9q improved the aortic architecture and hepatic steatosis. These findings support that compound 9q could be a promising lead compound for the development of new antihyperlipidemic agents.

Abstract
Quinazolinones represent an important scaffold in medicinal chemistry with diverse biological activities. Here, two series of 2-substituted quinazolin-4(3H)-ones were synthesized and evaluated for their antioxidant properties using three different methods, namely DPPH, ABTS and TEACCUPRAC, to obtain key information about the structure-antioxidant activity relationships of a diverse set of substituents at position 2 of the main quinazolinone scaffold. Regarding the antioxidant activity, ABTS and TEACCUPRAC assays were more sensitive and gave more reliable results than the DPPH assay. To obtain antioxidant activity of 2-phenylquinazolin-4(3H)-one, the presence of at least one hydroxyl group in addition to the methoxy substituent or the second hydroxyl on the phenyl ring in the ortho or para positions is required. An additional ethylene linker between quinazolinone ring and phenolic substituent, present in the second series (compounds 25a and 25b), leads to increased antioxidant activity. Furthermore, in addition to antioxidant activity, the derivatives with two hydroxyl groups in the ortho position on the phenyl ring exhibited metal-chelating properties. Our study represents a successful use of three different antioxidant activity evaluation methods to define 2-(2,3-dihydroxyphenyl)quinazolin-4(3H)-one 21e as a potent antioxidant with promising metal-chelating properties.

Abstract
Nitrogen heterocyclic rings have participated to constitute most of the drugs and several pharmacologically related compounds. The existence of such hetero atoms/groups in heterocyclic systems privileged specificities in their biological objectives. Particularly, quinazoline and triazole are biologically imperative platforms known to be linked with various pharmacological activities. Some of the prominent pharmacological responses ascribed to these systems are analgesic, antiinflammatory, anticonvulsant, hypnotic, antihistaminic, antihypertensive, anticancer, antimicrobial, antitubercular, antiviral and antimalarial activities. This diversity in the pharmacological outputs for both triazole and quinazoline systems has encouraged the medicinal chemistry researchers to create several chemical routes aiming at the incorporation of two rings in one molecule named triazoloquinazoline system. This system has shown multiple potential activities against numerous targets. Correlation the specific structural features of triazoloquinazoline system with its pharmacological purposes has successively been achieved by performing several pharmacological examinations and structure-activity relationship studies. The development of triazoloquinazoline derivatives and the understanding of their pharmacological targets offer opportunities for novel therapeutics. This review mainly emphases on the medicinal chemistry aspects of triazoloquinazolines including synthesis, reactivity, biological activity and structure activity relationship studies (SARs). Moreover, this review collates literature reported by researchers on triazoquinazolines and provides detailed attention on their analogs pharmacological activities in the perspective of drug development and discovery.

Bioorg Med Chem Lett 2021; 42:128002. [PMID: 33811990 DOI: 10.1016/j.bmcl.2021.128002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/12/2020] [Revised: 03/23/2021] [Accepted: 03/23/2021] [Indexed: 12/18/2022]
Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) play an integral role in the pathogenesis of most diseases. This work presents the design and synthesis of fourteen new diiodoquinazolinone derivatives bearing benzenesulfonamide moiety with variable acetamide tail and evaluation of their ability to activate nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) using its classical target NAD(P)H: quinone oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1) in Hepa1c1c7 murine hepatoma cells. The N-(2-chloropyridin-3-yl)-2-((6,8-diiodo-4-oxo-3-(4-sulfamoylphenyl)-3,4-dihydroquinazolin-2-yl)thio) acetamide 17 was the most potent NQO1 inducer (CD = 25 µM) with free radical scavenging activity (IC50 = 28 µM) and in vivo median lethal dose (LD50) of 500 mg/Kg. The possible radioprotective activity of compound 17 was evaluated in (7 Gy) irradiated mice. Compound 17 showed a reduction in radiation induced oxidative stress as evidenced by the lower levels of ROS, malondialdehyde (MDA) and NQO1 in liver tissues. Moreover, compound 17 showed improvement in the complete blood count (CBC) of irradiated mice and decreased mortality over 30 days following irradiation. Additionally, docking studies inside the Nrf2-binding site of Kelch-like ECH associated protein 1 (Keap1), the main negative regulator of Nrf2, confirmed that 17 revealed the same interactions with the key amino acids as those of the co-crystallized ligand. This study identifies 17 as a novel antioxidant that protects against the harmful effect of radiation.

Abstract
CONTEXT Quinazolines are a common class of nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffolds exhibiting a broad spectrum of pharmacological activities. OBJECTIVE In the present study, quinazoline and quinazolin-4-one derivatives were prepared, characterized to evaluate their biological which may pave the way for possible therapeutic applications. MATERIALS & METHODS A new derivative of quinazoline and quinazolin-4-one derivatives was prepared and tested for antiulcerogenic, anti-inflammatory and hepatoprotective activity. RESULTS The synthesized compounds were characterized by elemental analysis and spectral data. Also, the median lethal doses (LD50s) of compounds 1-3 in rats were 1125, 835 and 1785 mg/kg b.w., respectively. IC50 values of compounds (1-3) as measured by ABTS+ radical method was 0.8, 0.92 and 0.08 mg/mL, respectively. Antiulcerogenic activities at dose 1/20 LD50 in albino rats were 47.94, 24.60 and 56.45%, respectively. Anti-inflammatory effect at dose 1/20 LD50 of compounds (1-3) induced edema model after 120 min. The prepared compounds possess hepato gastric mucosa protective activity against ibuprofen-induced ulceration and LPS-induced liver toxicity, respectively in rats via normalization of oxidative stress biomarkers and inflammatory mediators were inhibited in peritoneal macrophage cells at concentration of 100 µg/L. Molecular docking suggested that the most active compounds 1 and 2 can be positioned within the active sites of COX-2 at Arg121 & Tyr356 similar to ibuprofen (Arg-120, Glu-524, and Tyr-355). The compound 3-COX-2 complex generated by docking revealed intricate interactions with a COX-2 channel. CONCLUSION These findings suggest that compounds 1-3 exhibited good antioxidant, antiulcer, anti-inflammatory activity and safe on liver enzymes in rats.

Abstract
Schiff base derivatives with anthracene- and pyrene-based units,
A1-A6
and
P1-P6
were synthesized (89%–99% yields). Schiff base derivatives were designed to possess an heterocyclic moiety on one side to enhance the coordination ability towards metals. To investigate the biological assay of the newly synthesized compounds, their DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl) radical scavenging, metal chelating, reducing power, antibacterial and DNA binding activities were tested.
A6
(63.1%) showed the maximum free radical scavenging activity among all. However, compound
P3
at concentration of 200 μg/mL possessed the highest metal chelating (45.8%) activity and power of reduction. In addition,
P3
and
A6
showed antibacterial activity against all bacteria tested and both compounds were very well bound to CT-DNA. Density functional theory method with B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p) basis set was performed to get information about the structural and electronic properties of the present compounds. In addition, the metal coordination properties of the dimers of the parent Schiff bases were investigated through interactions with Zn2+.

Abstract
The evaluation of antioxidant compounds that counteract the mutagenic effects caused by the direct action of reactive oxygen species on DNA molecule is of considerable interest. Therefore, a series of 2,3-substituted quinazolinone derivatives (Q1-Q8) were investigated by different assays, and the relationship between their biological properties and chemical structure was examined. Genotoxicity and the potential DNA-protective effects of Q1-Q8 were evaluated by comet assay and DNA topology assay. Antioxidant activity was examined by DPPH-radical-scavenging, reducing-power, and total antioxidant status (TAS) assays. The cytotoxic effect of compounds was assessed in human renal epithelial cells (TH-1) and renal carcinoma cells (Caki-1) by MTT assay. Analysis of the structure-activity relationship disclosed significant differences in the activity depending on the substitution pattern. Derivatives Q5-Q8, bearing electron-donating moieties, were the most potent members of this series. Compounds were not genotoxic and considerably decreased the levels of DNA lesions induced by oxidants (H2O2, Fe2+ ions). Furthermore, compounds exhibited higher cytotoxicity in Caki-1 compared to that in TH-1 cells. Substantial antioxidant effect and DNA-protectivity along with the absence of genotoxicity suggested that the studied quinazolinones might represent potential model structures for the development of pharmacologically active agents.

Abstract
In this study, novel quinazolinone derivatives 7a-n were synthesized and evaluated against metabolic enzymes including α-glycosidase, acetylcholinesterase, butyrylcholinesterase, human carbonic anhydrase I, and II. These compounds exhibited high inhibitory activities in comparison to used standard inhibitors with Ki values in the range of 19.28-135.88 nM for α-glycosidase (Ki value for standard inhibitor = 187.71 nM), 0.68-23.01 nM for acetylcholinesterase (Ki value for standard inhibitor = 53.31 nM), 1.01-29.56 nM for butyrylcholinesterase (Ki value for standard inhibitor = 58.16 nM), 10.25-126.05 nM for human carbonic anhydrase I (Ki value for standard inhibitor = 248.18 nM), and 13.46-178.35 nM for human carbonic anhydrase II (Ki value for standard inhibitor = 323.72). Furthermore, the most potent compounds against each enzyme were selected in order to evaluate interaction modes of these compounds in the active site of the target enzyme. Cytotoxicity assay of the title compounds 7a-n against cancer cell lines MCF-7 and LNCaP demonstrated that these compounds do not show significant cytotoxic effects.

Abstract
A new class of compounds formed by the linkage of -C(O)-NH- with pyridine and thiazole moieties was designed, synthesized, and characterized by various spectral approaches. The newly characterized compounds were evaluated for their antimicrobial as well as anti-inflammatory properties. The in vitro anti-inflammatory activity of these compounds was evaluated by denaturation of the bovine serum albumin method and showed inhibition in the range of IC50 values-46.29-100.60 μg/mL. Among all the tested compounds, compound 5l has the highest IC50 value and compound 5g has the least IC50 value. On the other hand, antimicrobial results revealed that compound 5j showed the lowest MIC values and compound 5a has the highest MIC values. Furthermore, molecular docking of the active compounds demonstrated a better docking score and interacted well with the target protein. Physicochemical parameters of the titled compounds were found suitable in the reference range only. The in silico molecular docking study revealed their COX-inhibitory action. Compound 5j emerged as a significant bioactive molecule among the synthesized analogues.

Abstract
In order to discover a new compound having anti-inflammatory activity, a nitro-Schiff base was evaluated. The compound was synthesized and characterized by 1H NMR and 13C NMR. The cytotoxic activity was evaluated in vitro by hemolysis and MTT cell viability assay. To evaluate genotoxicity, the micronucleus assay was performed in vivo. The anti-inflammatory effects of the compound were examined using in vivo models of inflammation such as neutrophil migration assay, paw edema, and exudation assay. The production of NO was also estimated in vivo and in vitro. The data showed that the compound did not induce hemolysis at all the tested concentrations. Similarly, the compound did not induce cytotoxicity and genotoxicity to the cells. The neutrophil migration assay showed that the compound reduced the number of neutrophils recruited to the peritoneal cavity by approximately 60% at all the tested concentrations. In the exudation assay, the compound showed a reduction in extravasation by 24%. The paw edema model demonstrated a significant reduction in the paw volume at all the evaluated time points. The production of NO was decreased both in vitro and in vivo. These results suggest that the nitro-Schiff base compound efficiently inhibited inflammation and might be a good candidate for the treatment of inflammatory-associated conditions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Accounting for mortality nearly one in four of human and second highest leading cause of death worldwide. Every year, about 10 million new cancers are diagnosed and causing major health issues in both developing and developed countries. METHODS A series of new dihydrazones were synthesized and screened for in vitro anticancer activity against three different MDA-MB-231, A546 and MCF7 cell lines and validated by DNA binding and molecular docking approaches. RESULT In the present investigations, synthesized compounds 21, 22, 23 and 24 exhibited potent anticancer activity against tested cancer cell lines and DNA binding study using methyl green comparing to Doxorubicin and ethidium bromide as a positive control respectively. CONCLUSION The Structure Activity Relationship (SAR) showed that the electron withdrawing groups (-Cl, -NO2, - F, and -Br) favored the DNA binding studies and anticancer activity whereas, electron donating groups (-OH and - OCH3) showed moderate activity. In the molecular docking study, binding interactions of the most active compounds 21, 22, 23 and 24 stacked with A-T rich regions of the DNA minor groove by surface binding interactions were confirmed. Further, the tuning of active analogs for targeted therapy was warranted.

Abstract
EPR and NMR experiments on a quinazolinone-based Schiff's base in DMSO solution showed that irradiation with UV light (365 nm) leads to photochemically-induced isomerization from the anti- to the higher-energy syn-form around the -N-N[double bond, length as m-dash] linkage. The anti- to syn-isomerization was relatively fast, and the maximum amount of conversion detected (25%) was reached within 10 min; thermodynamic equilibrium re-established itself in about 15 min. DFT calculations were performed on the investigated compound and small model systems, and reproduced the experimental fact of the anti-conformer being lower in energy than the syn. Theoretical analysis of excited states, including visualisation of natural transition orbitals, identified possible pathways for syn-anti isomerisation, although the details vary with π-system size, making the use of small models of limited utility. The investigated compound probably isomerises through the third singlet excited state (S3), a π-π* excitation, relaxing through S2, also a π-π* state.
