Abstract
The leishmaniases are NDTs (neglected tropical diseases) that affect people all over the world. They are brought on by protozoans from the genus Leishmania and disseminated by phlebotomine flies that are afflicted with the disease. The best option to manage and lower the incidence of these diseases has been thought by the creation of a safe and effective vaccination. This research used an in silico based mining approach to look for high potential epitopes that might bind to MHC Class I and MHC Class II molecules (mainly; HLA-A*02:01 & HLA-DRB1*03:01) from human population in order to promote vaccine development. Based on the presence of signal peptides, GPI anchors, antigenicity predictions, and a subtractive proteomic technique, we have screened 17 putative antigenic proteins from the 8083 total proteins of L. major. After that thorough immunogenic epitope prediction were done using IEDB-AR tools. We isolated five immunogenic epitopes (three 9-mer & two 15-mer) from five antigenic proteins through docking and MD simulation analysis. Finally, these five anticipated epitopes, viz., TLPEIPVNV, ELMAPVFGL, TLAAAVALL, NSINIRLDGVTSAGF and NVPLVVDASSLFRVA have considerably stronger binding potential with their respective alleles and may trigger immunological responses. The goal of this work was to identify MHC restricted epitopes for CD8+ and CD4+ T cells activation using immunoinformatics in order to identify potential vaccine candidates against L. major parasites.

Abstract
Bacterial infections cause a variety of life-threatening diseases, and the continuous evolution of drug-resistant bacteria poses an increasing threat to current antimicrobial regimens. Gram-positive bacteria (GPB) have a wide range of genetic capabilities that allow them to adapt to and develop resistance to practically all existing antibiotics. Oxazolidinones, a class of potent bacterial protein synthesis inhibitors with a unique mechanism of action involving inhibition of bacterial ribosomal translation, has emerged as the antibiotics of choice for the treatment of drug-resistant GPB infections. In this review, we discussed the oxazolidinone antibiotics that are currently on the market and in clinical development, as well as an updated synopsis of current advances on their analogues, with an emphasis on innovative strategies for structural optimization of linezolid, structure-activity relationship (SAR), and safety properties. We also discussed recent efforts aimed at extending the activity of oxazolidinones to gram-negative bacteria (GNB), antitumor, and coagulation factor Xa. Oxazolidinone antibiotics can accumulate in GNB by a conjugation to siderophore-mediated β-lactamase-triggered release, making them effective against GNB.

Abstract
Using density functional theory (DFT), we treat the reaction of coupling of CO2 with aziridine in gas phase, in the presence of water and of a green catalyst (NaBr). Computations show that, in gas phase, this ring-opening conversions to oxazolidinones initiates by coordinating a CO2 molecule to the nitrogen atom of the aziridine. Then, a nucleophilic interaction between one oxygen atom of the coordinated CO2 and the carbon atom of the aziridine occurs. For methyl substituted aziridine, two pathways are proposed leading either to 4-oxazolidinone or to 5-oxazolidinone. Besides, we show that the activation energy of this reaction reduces in aqueous solution, in the presence of a water molecule explicitly or NaBr catalyst. In addition, the corresponding reaction mechanisms and regioselectivity associated with this ring-opening conversions to oxazolidinones, in the presence of carbon dioxide are found to be influenced by solvent and catalyst. The present findings should allow better designing regioisomer oxazolidinones relevant for organic chemistry, medicinal and pharmacological applications.

Abstract
The preparation of 2-Oxazolidinones using CO2 offers opportunities for green chemistry, but multi-site activation is difficult for most catalysts. Here, A low-nuclear Ag4 catalytic system is successfully customized, which solves the simultaneous activation of acetylene (-C≡C) and amino (-NH-) and realizes the cyclization of propargylamine with CO2 under mild conditions. As expected, the Turnover Number (TON) and Turnover Frequency (TOF) values of the Ag4 nanocluster (NC) are higher than most of reported catalysts. The Ag4* NC intermediates are isolated and confirmed their structures by Electrospray ionization (ESI) and 1H Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (1H NMR). Additionally, the key role of multiple Ag atoms revealed the feasibility and importance of low-nuclear catalysts at the atomic level, confirming the reaction pathways that are inaccessible to the Ag single-atom catalyst and Ag2 NC. Importantly, the nanocomposite achieves multiple recoveries and gram scale product acquisition. These results provide guidance for the design of more efficient and targeted catalytic materials.

Abstract
Oxazolidinones represent a significant class of synthetic bacterial protein synthesis inhibitors that are primarily effective against Gram-positive bacteria. The commercial success of linezolid, the first FDA-approved oxazolidinone antibiotic, has motivated researchers to develop more potent oxazolidinones by employing various drug development strategies to fight against antimicrobial resistance, some of which have shown promising results. Thus, this Perspective aims to discuss the strategies employed in constructing oxazolidinone-based antibacterial agents and summarize recent advances in discovering oxazolidinone antibiotics to provide valuable insights for potentially developing next-generation oxazolidinone antibacterial agents or other pharmaceuticals.

Abstract
Oxazolidinone is a five-member heterocyclic ring with several biological applications in medicinal chemistry. Among the three possible isomers, 2-oxazolidinone is the most investigated in drug discovery. Linezolid was pioneered as the first approved drug containing an oxazolidinone ring as the pharmacophore group. Numerous analogues have been developed since its arrival on the market in 2000. Some have succeeded in reaching the advanced stages of clinical studies. However, most oxazolidinone derivatives reported in recent decades have not reached the initial stages of drug development, despite their promising pharmacological applications in a variety of therapeutic areas, including antibacterial, antituberculosis, anticancer, anti-inflammatory, neurologic, and metabolic diseases, among other areas. Therefore, this review article aims to compile the efforts of medicinal chemists who have explored this scaffold over the past decades and highlight the potential of the class for medicinal chemistry.

Abstract
The rising prevalence of antibiotic resistance in Staphylococcus aureus calls for the development of innovative antimicrobial agents targeting novel pathways. S. aureus generates various virulence factors that compromise host defense mechanisms. Flavone, a core structure of flavonoids, has been shown to diminish the production of staphyloxanthin and alpha-hemolysin. Nonetheless, the influence of flavone on the majority of other virulence factors in S. aureus and its underlying molecular mechanism remain elusive. In this study, we examined the impact of flavone on the transcriptional profile of S. aureus using transcriptome sequencing. Our findings revealed that flavone substantially downregulated the expression of over 30 virulence factors implicated in immune evasion by the pathogen. Gene set enrichment analysis of the fold change-ranked gene list in relation to the Sae regulon indicated a robust association between flavone-induced downregulation and membership in the Sae regulon. Through the analysis of Sae target promoter-gfp fusion expression patterns, we observed a dose-dependent inhibition of Sae target promoter activity by flavone. Moreover, we discovered that flavone protected human neutrophils from S. aureus-mediated killing. Flavone also decreased the expression of alpha-hemolysin and other hemolytic toxins, resulting in a reduction in S. aureus' hemolytic capacity. Additionally, our data suggested that the inhibitory effect of flavone on the Sae system operates independently of its capacity to lower staphyloxanthin levels. In conclusion, our study proposes that flavone exhibits a broad inhibitory action on multiple virulence factors of S. aureus by targeting the Sae system, consequently diminishing the bacterium's pathogenicity.

Abstract
In this research, a series of 3-(pyridine-3-yl)-2-oxazolidinone derivatives was designed, synthesized, and evaluated for in vitro antibacterial activity, which included bacteriostatic, morphological, kinetic studies, and molecular docking. The results demonstrated that compounds 21b, 21d, 21e and 21f exhibited strong antibacterial activity similar to that of linezolid toward five Gram-positive bacteria. After observing the effect of the drug on the morphology and growth dynamics of the bacteria, the possible modes of action were predicted by molecular docking. Furthermore, the antibiofilm activity and the potential drug resistance assay was proceeded. These compounds exhibited universal antibiofilm activity and compound 21d showed significant concentration-dependent inhibition of biofilm formation. Compound 21d also showed a stable effect on S. pneumoniae (ATCC 49619) with less drug resistance growth for 15 days, which is much longer than that of linezolid. Overall, these results can be used to guide further exploration of novel antimicrobial agents.

Abstract
Modern medicine has increasingly higher requirements for antibacterial materials. To overcome this challenge, we use alkynyl monomers, amino monomers, formaldehyde, and acetic acid as raw materials to synthesize a series of poly-tetrahydropyrimidine (P-THP) polymers through multicomponent polymerizations (MCPs). P-THP polymers can effectively inhibit the growth of Gram-positive bacteria (Staphylococcus aureus, S. aureus) and Gram-negative bacteria (Escherichia. coli, E. coli), and can prevent bacteria from developing drug resistance within at least 16 generations. Besides, we prepared P-THP antibacterial coatings and explored their antibacterial properties. In vitro antibacterial experiments showed that P-THP coatings can prevent the formation of bacterial biofilms, and the coatings have a lasting killing effect on E. coli and S. aureus. The mouse wound infection experiments proved that P-THP polymers can significantly accelerate skin tissue regeneration and wound healing. Moreover, the P-THP textile obtained by electrospinning also has antibacterial properties and has great application prospects in the field of N95 masks. Generally speaking, P-THP polymers have considerable application potential in the field of treating bacterial infections and promoting wound healing.

Abstract
On the basis of the global warming effect, it is of great significance to convert CO2 into the high value-added products oxazolidinones, but investigations on main-group-based metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) as heterogeneous catalysts still have not been reported so far. In this work, a quadruple-interpenetrated porous indium-based MOF, {[NH2(CH3)2][In(CPT)2]·3CH3CN·3DMA}n (1), is constructed from the organic ligand 3,5-bis(4'-carboxyphenyl)-1,2,4-triazole through solvothermal reactions, and N2 adsorption proves that the framework has a high Brunauer-Emmett-Teller surface areas with 2024 m2/g. The catalytic research on CO2 conversion reveals that compound 1 has high reactivity for the cycloaddition of CO2 with aziridines, and the product 3-ethyl-5-phenyloxazolidin-2-one can be obtained with a yield of 99% under mild conditions. In addition, 1 exhibits excellent activity for different kinds of substrates and can be reused at least five cycles without any significant deactivation, suggesting that 1 is a potential candidate for the chemical conversion of CO2 and aziridines. Mechanistic explorations indicate that the high efficiency of 1 is attributed to the indium center in the framework as a Lewis acid site, and the large porosity can enrich substrates. Importantly, 1 behaved as the first main-group MOF-based catalyst in the reported coupling reaction of CO2 with aziridines.

Abstract
The widespread use of antibiotics has made the problem of bacterial resistance increasingly serious, and the study of new drug-resistant bacteria has become the main direction of antibacterial drug research. Among antibiotics, the fully synthetic oxazolidinone antibacterial drugs linezolid and tedizolid have been successfully marketed and have achieved good clinical treatment effects. Oxazolidinone antibacterial drugs have good pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic characteristics and unique antibacterial mechanisms, and resistant bacteria are sensitive to them. This Perspective focuses on reviewing oxazolidinones based on the structural modification of linezolid and new potential oxazolidinone drugs in the past 10 years, mainly describing their structure, antibacterial activity, safety, druggability, and so on, and discusses their structure-activity relationships, providing insight into the reasonable design of safer and more potent oxazolidinone antibacterial drugs.

Microwave-Assisted Synthesis, Structural Characterization and Assessment of the Antibacterial Activity of Some New Aminopyridine, Pyrrolidine, Piperidine and Morpholine Acetamides. Molecules 2021; 26:molecules26030533. [PMID: 33498526 PMCID: PMC7864198 DOI: 10.3390/molecules26030533] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/28/2020] [Revised: 11/09/2020] [Accepted: 11/11/2020] [Indexed: 11/23/2022] Open
Abstract
A series of new acetamide derivatives 22–28 of primary and secondary amines and para-toluene sulphinate sodium salt have been synthesized under microwave irradiation and assessed in vitro for their antibacterial activity against one Gram-positive and two Gram-negative bacterial species such as S. pyogenes, E. coli, and P. mirabilis using the Mueller-Hinton Agar diffusion (well diffusion) method. The synthesized compounds with significant differences in inhibition diameters and MICs were compared with those of amoxicillin, ampicillin, cephalothin, azithromycin and doxycycline. All of the evaluated acetamide derivatives were used with varying inhibition concentrations of 6.25, 12.5, 37.5, 62.5, 87.5, 112.5 and 125 µg/mL. The results show that the most important antibacterial properties were displayed by the synthetic compounds 22 and 24, both of bear a para-chlorophenyl moiety incorporated into the 2-position moiety of acetamide 1. The molecular structures of the new compounds were determined using the FT-IR and 1H-NMR techniques.

Int J Mol Sci 2018; 19:ijms19103116. [PMID: 30314336 PMCID: PMC6213879 DOI: 10.3390/ijms19103116] [Citation(s) in RCA: 17] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/06/2018] [Revised: 09/13/2018] [Accepted: 10/03/2018] [Indexed: 12/18/2022] Open
Abstract
Novel representatives of the important group of biologically-active, dehydroabietic acid-bearing oxazolidinone moiety were synthesized to explore more efficacious and less toxic antitumor agents. Structures of all the newly target molecules were confirmed by IR, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, and HR-MS. The inhibitory activities of these compounds against different human cancer cell lines (MGC-803, CNE-2, SK-OV-3, NCI-H460) and human normal liver cell line LO2 were evaluated and compared with the commercial anticancer drug cisplatin, using standard MTT (methyl thiazolytetrazolium) assay in vitro. The pharmacological screening results revealed that most of the hybrids showed significantly improved antiproliferative activities over dehydroabietic acid and that some displayed better inhibitory activities compared to cisplatin. In particular, compound 4j exhibited promising cytotoxicity with IC50 values ranging from 3.82 to 17.76 µM against all the test cell lines and displayed very weak cytotoxicity (IC50 > 100 µM) on normal cells, showing good selectivity between normal and malignant cells. Furthermore, the action mechanism of the representative compound 4j was preliminarily investigated by Annexin-V/PI dual staining, Hoechst 33258 staining, which indicated that the compound can induce cell apoptosis in MGC-803 cells in a dose-dependent manner and arrest the cell cycle in G1 phase. Therefore, 4j may be further exploited as a novel pharmacophore model for the development of anticancer agents.
