Abstract
Thiosemicarbazones are promising classes of compounds with antitumor activity. For this study, six 2,4-dihydroxy-benzylidene-thiosemicarbazones compounds were synthesized. These compounds were submitted to different assays in silico, in vitro and in vivo to evaluate the toxicological, antioxidant and antitumor effects. The in silico results were evaluated by the SwissADME and pkCSM platforms and showed that all compounds had good oral bioavailability profiles. The in vitro and in vivo toxicity assays showed that the compounds showed low cytotoxicity against different normal cells and did not promote hemolytic effects. The single dose acute toxicity test (2000 mg/kg) showed that none of the compounds were toxic to mice. In in vitro antioxidant activity assays, the compounds showed moderate to low activity, with PB17 standing out for the ABTS radical capture assay. The in vivo antioxidant activity highlighted the compounds 1, 6 and 8 that promoted a significant increase in the concentration of liver antioxidant enzymes. Finally, all compounds showed promising antitumor activity against different cell lines, especially MCF-7 and DU145 lines, in addition, they inhibited the growth of sarcoma 180 at concentrations lower than 50 mg/kg. These results showed that the evaluated compounds can be considered as potential antitumor agents.

Abstract
The chemoselectivity of halo(het)arene sulfonyl halide aminations is studied thoroughly under parallel synthesis conditions, and the scope and limitations of the method are established. It is shown that SNAr-reactive sulfonyl halides typically undergo sulfonamide synthesis during the first step; the second amination is also possible provided that the SNAr-active center is sufficiently reactive. On the contrary, sulfonyl fluorides bearing an arylating moiety undergo selective transformation at the latter reactive center under proper control. Further sulfur-fluoride exchange (SuFEx) is also possible, which can be especially valuable for some sulfonyl halide classes. The developed two-step parallel double amination protocol provides access to a 6.67-billion compound synthetically tractable REAL-type chemical space (76% expected synthesis success rate).

Abstract
Due to the variability and ability of tumor to mutate, as well as the heterogeneity of tumor tissue, such drugs are sought that would act selectively and multidirectionally on the cancer cell. Therefore, two newly synthesized semicarbazide structured substances were evaluated for anticancer properties in our study: 1a and 1b. In order to evaluate the cytotoxicity and selectivity of the tested compounds, MTT and Neutral Red uptake assay on cell lines (HEK293, LN229, 769-P, HepG2 and NCI-H1563) and cell cycle analysis were performed. Acute toxicity and cardiotoxicity were also evaluated in the zebrafish model. The tested compounds (1a, 1b) showed cytotoxic activity, with the greatest selectivity noted against the glioblastoma multiforme cell line (LN229). However, compound 1b showed stronger selective activity than 1a. Both of compounds were shown to significantly affect the M phase of the cell cycle. Whereas, the conducted toxicological examination of newly synthesized thiosemicarbazide derivates showed, that direct exposition of Danio rerio embryos to compound 1a, but not 1b, causes a concentration-dependent increase in developmental malformations, indicating possible teratogenic effects.

Abstract
Insect nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) are a recognized target for insecticide design. In this work, we have identified, from a structure-based approach using molecular modeling tools, ligands with potential selective activity for pests versus pollinators. A high-throughput virtual screening with the Openeye software was performed using a library from the ZINC database, thiacloprid being used as the target structure. The top sixteen molecules were then docked in α6 cockroach and honeybee homomeric nAChRs to check from a theoretical point of view relevant descriptors in favor of pest selectivity. Among the selected molecules, one original sulfonamide compound has afterward been synthesized, together with various analogs. Two compounds of this family have been shown to behave as activators of the cockroach cholinergic synaptic transmission.

Abstract
A series of cytosine derivatives containing a sulfonamide moiety were designed and synthesized, and their antiviral activities against pepper mild mottle virus (PMMoV) were systematically evaluated. Then, a three-dimensional quantitative structure-activity relationship (3D-QSAR) model was constructed to study the structure-activity relationship according to the pEC50 of the compounds' protective activities. Next, compound A32 with preferable antiviral activity on PMMoV was obtained based on the CoMSIA and CoMFA models, with an EC50 of 19.5 μg/mL, which was superior to the template molecule A25 (21.3 μg/mL) and ningnanmycin (214.0 μg/mL). In addition, further studies showed that the antiviral activity of compound A32 against PMMoV was in accord with the up-regulation of proteins expressed in the defense response and carbon fixation in photosynthetic organisms. These results indicated that cytosine derivatives containing a sulfonamide moiety could be used as novel potential antiviral agents for further research and development.

Abstract
We exploited bacterial infection assays using the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster to identify anti-infective compounds that abrogate the pathological consequences in the infected hosts. Here, we demonstrated that a pyridine-3-N-sulfonylpiperidine derivative (4a) protects Drosophila from the acute infections caused by bacterial pathogens including Pseudomonas aeruginosa. 4a did not inhibit the growth of P. aeruginosa in vitro, but inhibited the production of secreted toxins such as pyocyanin and hydrogen cyanide, while enhancing the production of pyoverdine and pyochelin, indicative of iron deprivation. Based on its catechol moiety, 4a displayed iron-chelating activity in vitro toward both iron (II) and iron (III), more efficiently than the approved iron-chelating drugs such as deferoxamine and deferiprone, concomitant with more potent antibacterial efficacy in Drosophila infections and unique transcriptome profile. Taken together, these results delineate a Drosophila-based strategy to screen for antipathogenic compounds, which interfere with iron uptake crucial for bacterial virulence and survival in host tissues.

Abstract
Rab27A is a small GTPase, which mediates transport and docking of secretory vesicles at the plasma membrane via protein-protein interactions (PPIs) with effector proteins. Rab27A promotes the growth and invasion of multiple cancer types such as breast, lung and pancreatic, by enhancing secretion of chemokines, metalloproteases and exosomes. The significant role of Rab27A in multiple cancer types and the minor role in adults suggest that Rab27A may be a suitable target to disrupt cancer metastasis. Similar to many GTPases, the flat topology of the Rab27A-effector PPI interface and the high affinity for GTP make it a challenging target for inhibition by small molecules. Reported co-crystal structures show that several effectors of Rab27A interact with the Rab27A SF4 pocket ('WF-binding pocket') via a conserved tryptophan-phenylalanine (WF) dipeptide motif. To obtain structural insight into the ligandability of this pocket, a novel construct was designed fusing Rab27A to part of an effector protein (fRab27A), allowing crystallisation of Rab27A in high throughput. The paradigm of KRas covalent inhibitor development highlights the challenge presented by GTPase proteins as targets. However, taking advantage of two cysteine residues, C123 and C188, that flank the WF pocket and are unique to Rab27A and Rab27B among the >60 Rab family proteins, we used the quantitative Irreversible Tethering (qIT) assay to identify the first covalent ligands for native Rab27A. The binding modes of two hits were elucidated by co-crystallisation with fRab27A, exemplifying a platform for identifying suitable lead fragments for future development of competitive inhibitors of the Rab27A-effector interaction interface, corroborating the use of covalent libraries to tackle challenging targets.

BHMPS Inhibits Breast Cancer Migration and Invasion by Disrupting Rab27a-Mediated EGFR and Fibronectin Secretion. Cancers (Basel) 2022; 14:cancers14020373.

Abstract
Simple Summary Numerous studies targeting Rab GTPases and its multiple effectors have been attempted since exocytosis has been shown to alter tumor malignancy by modulating cancer cell behavior and tumor microenvironment. Here, we demonstrated that BHMPS inhibits migration and invasion of breast cancer cells by blocking the interaction between Rab27a and Slp4. BHMPS interfered with vesicle trafficking and secretion by decreasing FAK and JNK activation. In addition, BHMPS suppressed tumor growth in Rab27a-overexpressing MDA-MB-231 xenograft mice. This study highlighted the importance of understanding the mechanisms of Rab27a-mediated metastasis in improving the therapeutic options for metastatic cancers. Abstract Our previous work demonstrated that (E)-N-benzyl-6-(2-(3, 4-dihydroxybenzylidene) hydrazinyl)-N-methylpyridine-3-sulfonamide (BHMPS), a novel synthetic inhibitor of Rab27aSlp(s) interaction, suppresses tumor cell invasion and metastasis. Here, we aimed to further investigate the mechanisms of action and biological significance of BHMPS. BHMPS decreased the expression of epithelial-mesenchymal transition transcription factors through inhibition of focal adhesion kinase and c-Jun N-terminal kinase activation, thereby reducing the migration and invasion of breast cancer. Additionally, knockdown of Rab27a inhibited tumor migration, with changes in related signaling molecules, whereas overexpression of Rab27a reversed this phenomenon. BHMPS effectively prevented the interaction of Rab27a and its effector Slp4, which was verified by co-localization, immunoprecipitation, and in situ proximity ligation assays. BHMPS decreased the secretion of epidermal growth factor receptor and fibronectin by interfering with vesicle trafficking, as indicated by increased perinuclear accumulation of CD63-positive vesicles. Moreover, administration of BHMPS suppressed tumor growth in Rab27a-overexpressing MDA-MB-231 xenograft mice. These findings suggest that BHMPS may be a promising candidate for attenuating tumor migration and invasion by blocking Rab27a-mediated exocytosis.

Abstract
Cell invasion is associated with numerous patho-physiologic states including cell development and metastatic dissemination. This process couples the activation of cell motility with the capacity to degrade the extracellular matrix, thereby permitting cells to pass through basal membranes. Invasion is sustained by the actions of invadosomes, an ensemble of subcellular structures with high functional homology. Invadosomes are 3D acto-adhesive structures that can also mediate local extracellular matrix degradation through the controlled delivery of proteases. Intracellular RHO GTPases play a central role in the regulation of invadosomes where their complex interplay regulates multiple invadosome functions. This review aims to provide an overview of the synergistic activities of the small GTPases in invadosome biology. This broad-based review also reinforces the importance of the spatiotemporal regulation of small GTPases and the impact of this process on invadosome dynamics.

Abstract
Tobacco mosaic virus coat protein (TMV CP) plays an important role in viral replication, translation, and intracellular and intercellular movements. Thus, TMV CP could be regarded as a potential target for antiviral agents. In this study, in order to find out whether dithioacetal derivatives act on the CP target, a series of dithioacetal derivatives containing sulfonamide moiety was first designed and synthesized. Bioassay results demonstrated that Y14, Y18, and Y21 exhibited excellent activities against TMV, with half-maximal effective concentrations (EC50) of the curative, protective, and inactivate activities being 183.0 ± 3.2, 252.3 ± 2.6, and 63.8 ± 1.2 μg/mL, 270.6 ± 3.7, 249.7 ± 3.5, and 57.7 ± 1.4 μg/mL, and 329.5 ± 1.5, 269.2 ± 3.7, and 48.1 ± 2.0 μg/mL for Y14, Y18, and Y21, respectively, which were higher than those for the control agents ningnanmycin (331.0 ± 2.8, 271.0 ± 2.8, and 77.4 ± 1.3 μg/mL, respectively) and d2 (471.5 ± 1.4, 447.2 ± 2.1, and 91.7 ± 1.8 μg/mL, respectively). Transmission electron microscopy showed that the particle morphology of TMV was destroyed by Y21, and microscale thermophoresis (MST) showed that Y21 bonded to CP with a dissociation constant (K d) of 9.7 ± 1.7 μM. Then, molecular docking and MST further illustrated that Y21 had a weak binding affinity with the TMV mutant protein (K d = 561.3 ± 83.2 μM). Thus, we deduced that the dithioacetal derivative Y21 may inhibit TMV activity by binding TMV CP. This work provides some new insights for the design and optimization of novel anti-TMV agents.

Abstract
The amount of ion channels and transporters present at the plasma membrane is a crucial component of the overall regulation of ion transport. The number of channels present result from an intricate network of proteins that controls the late events of channel trafficking, such as endocytosis, recycling and targeting to lysosomal degradation. Small GTPases of the Rab family are key players in these processes thus contributing to regulation of fluid secretion and ion homeostasis. In epithelia, this involves mainly the balance between the chloride channel CFTR and the sodium channel ENaC, whose misfunction is a hallmark of cystic fibrosis - the commonest recessive disorder in Caucasians. Here, we review the role of GTPases in regulating trafficking of ion channels and transporters, comparing what is known for CFTR and ENaC with other types of channels. We also discuss how feasible would be to target the Rab machinery to handle a disorder such as CF.
