Critical view on antimicrobial, antibiofilm and cytotoxic activities of quinazolin-4(3 H)-one derived schiff bases and their Cu(II) complexes. Heliyon 2024; 10:e29051. [PMID: 38601653 PMCID: PMC11004567 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e29051] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/14/2023] [Revised: 03/28/2024] [Accepted: 03/28/2024] [Indexed: 04/12/2024] Open
Abstract
A series of nine 2,3-disubstituted-quinazolin-4(3H)-one derived Schiff bases and their three Cu(II) complexes was prepared and tested for their antimicrobial activities against reference strains Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 29213 and Enterococcus faecalis ATCC 29212 and resistant clinical isolates of methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) and vancomycin-resistant E. faecalis (VRE). All the substances were tested in vitro against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Ra ATCC 25177, M. kansasii DSM 44162 and M. smegmatis ATCC 700084. While anti-enterococcal and antimycobacterial activities were insignificant, 3-[(E)-(2-hydroxy-5-nitrobenzylidene)amino]-2-(2-hydroxy-5-nitrophenyl)-2,3-dihydroquinazolin-4(1H)-one (SB3) and its Cu(II) complex (SB3-Cu) demonstrated bacteriostatic antistaphylococcal activity. In addition, both compounds, as well as the other two prepared complexes, showed antibiofilm activity, which resulted in a reduction of biofilm formation and eradication of mature S. aureus biofilm by 80% even at concentrations lower than the values of their minimum inhibitory concentrations. In addition, the compounds were tested for their cytotoxic effect on the human monocytic leukemia cell line THP-1. The antileukemic efficiency was improved by the preparation of Cu(II) complexes from the corresponding non-chelated Schiff base ligands.

Abstract
The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) lists Neisseria gonorrhoeae as one of the most urgent antibiotic-resistant threats in the United States. This is due to the emergence of clinical isolates that have developed resistance to nearly every antibiotic used to treat gonorrhea and highlights the critical need to find new therapeutics. The present study discovered salicylamide, an analgesic and antipyretic drug, has antibacterial activity against 40 different antibiotic-resistant strains of N. gonorrhoeae (MIC 8-32 μg/ml) with low frequency of resistance <2.4x10-9 Interestingly, salicylamide did not inhibit growth of bacterial species in the vaginal microflora involved in defense against gonococcal infections, such as Lactobacillus gasseri, L. jensenii, L. johnsonii, and L. crispatus A time-kill assay revealed that salicylamide is a rapidly bactericidal drug as it eradicated a high inoculum of N. gonorrhoeae within 10 hours. Salicylamide was superior to the drug of choice, ceftriaxone, in reducing the burden of intracellular N. gonorrhoeae by 97% in infected endocervical cells. Furthermore, salicylamide outperformed ceftriaxone in reducing expression of the pro-inflammatory cytokine IL-8 from endocervical cells infected with N. gonorrhoeae A checkerboard assay revealed that salicylamide exhibited a synergistic interaction with tetracycline and an additive relationship with azithromycin and ciprofloxacin, and ceftriaxone. A more in-depth investigation of the structure-activity-relationship of derivatives of salicylamide revealed the amide and hydroxyl groups are important for anti-gonorrheal activity. In conclusion, this study identified salicylamide as a promising candidate for further investigation as a novel treatment option for multidrug-resistant gonorrhea.

Abstract
A systematic study on sulfonamide derivatives with salicylamide core is presented for possible use in pharmaceutical applications. The molecular structure of eight different compounds has been investigated by FTIR in the frequency range 4000-400 cm-1 to recognize the possible geometrical shape of the molecules needed to uniquely identify the activity of molecule in cancer cell. The electronic charge distribution of these different compounds is further illustrated by UV-Vis spectroscopy in the frequency range 190-1100 nm. The theoretical results obtained from molecular modeling calculations showed that the hydrogen bonds between the OH, CO, NH, and/or CH groups vary from one compound to the other regarding their number and bond length. This confirms the experimental FTIR results regarding the position and broadening of the OH and NH groups due to free rotation of the amide group because of changing the compounds structure by adding different groups to the last phenyl ring. The hydrogen bonds take different directions and values from one compound to the other, which seems to be the most important factor regarding the activity of these different compounds in cancer cell. Both theoretical molecular modeling calculations and FTIR experimental results have strongly evaluated the relation between the chemical structure of 5-chloro-N (4-sulfamoylbenzyl) salicylamide derivatives and their biological activities.

Abstract
A series of 116 small-molecule 1-hydroxynaphthalene-2-carboxanilides was designed based on the fragment-based approach and was synthesized according to the microwave-assisted protocol. The biological activity of all of the compounds was tested on human colon carcinoma cell lines including a deleted TP53 tumor suppressor gene. The mechanism of activity was studied according to the p53 status in the cell. Several compounds revealed a good to excellent activity that was similar to or better than the standard anticancer drugs. Some of these appeared to be more active against the p53 null cells than their wild-type counterparts. Intercalating the properties of these compounds could be responsible for their mechanism of action.

Abstract
A series of sixteen ring-substituted N-arylcinnamamides was prepared and characterized. Primary in vitro screening of all the synthesized compounds was performed against Staphylococcus aureus, three methicillin-resistant S. aureus strains, Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Ra, Fusarium avenaceum, and Bipolaris sorokiniana. Several of the tested compounds showed antistaphylococcal, antitubercular, and antifungal activities comparable with or higher than those of ampicillin, isoniazid, and benomyl. (2E)-N-[3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]-3-phenylprop-2-enamide and (2E)-3-phenyl-N-[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]prop-2-enamide showed the highest activities (MICs = 22.27 and 27.47 µM, respectively) against all four staphylococcal strains and against M. tuberculosis. These compounds showed an activity against biofilm formation of S. aureus ATCC 29213 in concentrations close to MICs and an ability to increase the activity of clinically used antibiotics with different mechanisms of action (vancomycin, ciprofloxacin, and tetracycline). In time-kill studies, a decrease of CFU/mL of >99% after 8 h from the beginning of incubation was observed. (2E)-N-(3,5-Dichlorophenyl)- and (2E)-N-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-3-phenylprop-2-enamide had a MIC = 27.38 µM against M. tuberculosis, while a significant decrease (22.65%) of mycobacterial cell metabolism determined by the MTT assay was observed for the 3,5-dichlorophenyl derivative. (2E)-N-(3-Fluorophenyl)- and (2E)-N-(3-methylphenyl)-3-phenylprop-2-enamide exhibited MICs = 16.58 and 33.71 µM, respectively, against B. sorokiniana. The screening of the cytotoxicity of the most effective antimicrobial compounds was performed using THP-1 cells, and these chosen compounds did not shown any significant lethal effect. The compounds were also evaluated for their activity related to the inhibition of photosynthetic electron transport (PET) in spinach (Spinacia oleracea L.) chloroplasts. (2E)-N-(3,5-dichlorophenyl)-3-phenylprop-2-enamide (IC50 = 5.1 µM) was the most active PET inhibitor. Compounds with fungicide potency did not show any in vivo toxicity against Nicotiana tabacum var. Samsun. The structure–activity relationships are discussed.

Abstract
A series of novel unique structural organophosphorus aminopyrimidines were developed as potential DNA-targeting membrane active inhibitors through an efficient one-pot procedure from aldehydes, phosphonate and aminopyrimidine. The biological assay revealed that some of the prepared compounds displayed antibacterial activities. In particular, imidazole derivative 2c exhibited more potent inhibitory activity against MRSA with an MIC value of 4 μg mL-1 in comparison with the clinical drugs chloromycin and norfloxacin. Experiments revealed that the active molecule 2c had the ability to rapidly kill the tested strains without obviously triggering the development of bacterial resistance, showed low toxicity to L929 cells and could disturb the cell membrane. The molecular docking study discovered that compound 2c could bind with DNA gyrase via hydrogen bonds and other weak interactions. Further exploration disclosed that the active molecule 2c could also effectively intercalate into MRSA DNA and form a steady 2c-DNA supramolecular complex, which might further block DNA replication to exert powerful antibacterial effects.
