Abstract
Malaria is still a complex and lethal parasitic infectious disease, despite the availability of effective antimalarial drugs. Resistance of malaria parasites to current treatments necessitates new antimalarials targeting P. falciparum proteins. The present study reported the design and synthesis of a series of a 2-(4-substituted piperazin-1-yl)-N-(5-((naphthalen-2-yloxy)methyl)-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl)acetamide hybrids for the inhibition of Plasmodium falciparum dihydrofolate reductase (PfDHFR) using computational biology tools followed by chemical synthesis, structural characterization, and functional analysis. The synthesized compounds were evaluated for their in vitro antimalarial activity against CQ-sensitive PfNF54 and CQ-resistant PfW2 strain. Compounds T5 and T6 are the most active compounds having anti-plasmodial activity against PfNF54 with IC50 values of 0.94 and 3.46 μM respectively. Compound T8 is the most active against the PfW2 strain having an IC50 of 3.91 μM. Further, these active hybrids (T5, T6, and T8) were also evaluated for enzyme inhibition assay against PfDHFR. All the tested compounds were non-toxic against the Hek293 cell line with good selectivity indices. Hemolysis assay also showed non-toxicity of these compounds on normal uninfected human RBCs. In silico molecular docking studies were carried out in the binding pocket of both the wild-type and quadruple mutant Pf-DHFR-TS to gain further insights into probable modes of action of active compounds. ADME prediction and physiochemical properties support their drug-likeness. Additionally, they were screened for antileishmanial activity against L. donovani promastigotes to explore broader applications. Thus, this study provides molecular frameworks for developing potent antimalarials and antileishmanial agents.

Evaluation of anti-parasitic activities of new quinolones containing nitrofuran moiety against Toxoplasma gondii. Exp Parasitol 2022; 240:108344. [PMID: 35931176 DOI: 10.1016/j.exppara.2022.108344] [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: 07/19/2021] [Revised: 07/24/2022] [Accepted: 07/25/2022] [Indexed: 11/04/2022]
Abstract
Toxoplasmosis is a disease with a worldwide prevalence that is caused by Toxoplasma gondii. Pyrimethamine and sulfadiazine are two pharmacological agents commonly used to treat of this infection. However, they are accompanied by some side effects. Therefore, the identifying of new drugs with low toxocytosis seems to be a matter of vital importance. Quinolones are DNA replication inhibitors, exerting inhibitory effects against many pathogens, including bacteria, mycoplasma, and protozoa. Given the importance of quinolones and their efficacy, the present in vitro study was conducted to investigate the antiparasitic activities of new quinolones (NFQ-2, NFQ-5, and NFQ-6) containing nitrofuran moiety against T. gondii. To this end, Vero cells were incubated with various concentrations of new quinolones and pyrimethamine (positive control) to determine their viability. Subsequently, they were infected with T. gondii (RH strain) and then subjected to drug treatment. The obtained IC50 values were 3.60, 4.84, 5.59, 3.44 and 2.75 μg/mL for NFQ-2, NFQ-5, NFQ-6, ciprofloxacin and pyrimethamine, respectively. The CC50 values for the NFQ-2, NFQ-5, and NFQ-6 were 25.20, 29.89, and 28.43 μg/mL, indicating the selectivity indexes more than 5 for these compounds. The anti-Toxoplasma efficiency was determined by evaluating infection index, number and size of plaques, and T. gondii intracellular proliferation. As the results indicated, the administration of new quinolone derivatives resulted in the reduction of intracellular proliferation, infection index, and the number and size of plaques in comparison to uninfected treated cells (P < 0.05). The results were indicative of a considerable synergetic effect when each of the derivatives was used in combination with pyrimethamine, compared to when used alone. Based on our results, the nitrofuran-derived quinolones can be considered as new leads for the design of new anti-Toxoplasma agents.

Abstract
In this paper, the 2,5-disubstituted furan derivatives containing 1,3,4-thiadiazole were synthesized and screened for their inhibitory activity against α-glucosidase and β-glucuronidases to obtain potent α-glucosidase inhibitor 9 (IC50 = 0.186 μM) and E. coli β-glucuronidase inhibitor 26 (IC50 = 0.082 μM), respectively. The mechanisms of the compounds were studied. The kinetic study revealed that compound 9 is a competitive inhibitor against α-glucosidase (Ki = 0.05 ± 0.003 μM) and molecular docking simulation showed several key interactions between 9 and the target including hydrogen bond and p-π stacking interaction. Derivative 26 (Ki = 0.06 ± 0.005 μM) displayed uncompetitive inhibition behavior against EcGUS. Furthermore, the result of docking revealed the furan ring of 26 may be a key moiety in obstructing the active domain of EcGUS. In addition, compound 15 exhibited significant inhibitory activity against these two enzymes, with potential therapeutic effects against diabetes and against CPT-11-induced diarrhea. At the same time, their low toxicity against normal liver tissue LO2 cells lays the foundation for in vivo studies and the development of bifunctional drug.

Abstract
Neglected tropical diseases affect the lives of a billion people worldwide. Among them, the parasitic infections caused by protozoan parasites of the Trypanosomatidae family have a huge impact on human health. Leishmaniasis, caused by Leishmania spp., is an endemic parasitic disease in over 88 countries and is closely associated with poverty. Although significant advances have been made in the treatment of leishmaniasis over the last decade, currently available chemotherapy is far from satisfactory. The lack of an approved vaccine, effective medication and significant drug resistance worldwide had led to considerable interest in discovering new, inexpensive, efficient and safe antileishmanial agents. 1,3,4-Thiadiazole rings are found in biologically active natural products and medicinally important synthetic compounds. The thiadiazole ring exhibits several specific properties: it is a bioisostere of pyrimidine or benzene rings with prevalence in biologically active compounds; the sulfur atom increases lipophilicity and combined with the mesoionic character of thiadiazoles imparts good oral absorption and good cell permeability, resulting in good bioavailability. This review presents synthetic 2-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazole derivatives with antileishmanial activity. Many reported derivatives can be considered as lead compounds for the synthesis of future agents as an alternative to the treatment of leishmaniasis.

Abstract
In the present study, anti-leishmanial evaluation of twenty four structurally diverse compounds based on benzopiperidine, benzopyridine and phenylpiperazine nucleuses against Leishmania infantum has been reported. Cytotoxicity studies of all the compounds were performed on murine non-infected splenocytes. Tested compounds exhibited weak to potent activity against promastigote (IC50 3.21 ± 1.40 to >100 μM) as well as amastigote (IC50 6.84 ± 2.5 to 92.47 ± 17.61 μM) forms of tested strains. Moreover, two compounds F13 and F15 exhibited potent activity (IC50 < 10 μM) against both forms of the parasite with selectivity index ranges from 11.40 to 22.10. Overall, the current study afforded few hits with novel anti-leishmanial activity in low micromolar concentration, further hit optimization studies can be performed to get more potent candidates against the selected species of parasite.

The synthesis process involved protection of hydroxyl group followed by the reaction of the intermediate with primary amines and finally deprotection. All compounds were evaluated for in vitro activities against the amastigote and promastigote forms of Leishmania major. Most of the synthesized compounds exhibited good antileishmanial activity against both forms of L. major. IC50 values of the most active compounds; 9d, 9d and 9e, after 24, 48 and 72 h against amastigote model were 15, 12.5 and 5.5 μg/mL, respectively. 9e, 11 and 9e inhibited the promastigote form of parasite after 24, 48 and 72 h with IC50 values of 10, 2 and 1 μg/mL, respectively.

Abstract
A series of arylamidines 3a-j was designed, synthesized and investigated for antimicrobial activity. Structures of the compounds were confirmed by IR, 1H-NMR and 13C-NMR and a 2D spectroscopic study was performed. A preliminary screening of the antimicrobial tests clearly showed that three out of ten arylamidines, viz, 3f, 3g and 3i, were effective against all the gram-negative bacteria: Klebsiella pneumoniae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Salmonella enteric; and against the yeast, candida albicans. Further, the Minimum Inhibitory Concentrations (MIC) against the bacteria and yeast were determined. All compounds 3a-d, 3f, 3g, 3i and 3j were also investigated for their low cytotoxic effects on tested cell lines. Compounds 3d and 3f were the most effective derivatives against HL-60 and HEp-2 cells, respectively, with IC50 value (2µg/mL), and low normal cells toxicity.

Abstract
The azole antifungal drugs are an important class of chemotherapeutic agents with broad-spectrum of activity against yeasts and filamentous fungi, act in the ergosterol biosynthetic pathway through inhibition of the cytochrome P450-dependent enzyme sterol 14α-demethylase. Azole antifungals have also been repurposed for treatment of tropical protozoan infections including human leishmaniasis. Recent advances in molecular biology and computational chemistry areas have increased our knowledge about sterol biochemical pathway in Leishmania parasites. Based on the importance of sterol biosynthetic pathway in Leishmania parasites, we reviewed all studies reported on azoles for potential antileishmanial therapy along their structural and biological aspects. This review may help medicinal chemists for design of new azole-derived antileishmanial drugs.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Four isomeric structures of thiadiazole motifs have outstanding pharmacological inhibitory applications are reported in this review. Thiadiazole nucleus is present in several biologically active natural products and commercial drugs. Most of thiadiazoles reported herein are emphasized to have broad spectrum of medicinal activities. Areas covered: This review represents the recent inhibitory activities of thiadiazole isomeric scaffolds and their broad-spectrum biological applications published as full texts during 2010-2016 as well as the patents published during 2005-2016. The inhibition areas covered included anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, antitumor, antioxidant, antitubercular, antiviral, antileishmanial, anticonvulsant, herbicidal and algicidal activities in addition to enzymes, human platelet aggregation and neuroprotective inhibitors. Expert opinion: This survey revealed very interesting data about the applications of thiadiazoles, where some synthetic or natural thiadiazole derivatives were components of drugs available in the market. Many thiadiazole derivatives can be considered as lead compounds for drug synthesis. The most inhibitory active 1,3,4-thiadiazole compounds are those incorporating secondary alkyl(aryl)amido- and/or benzylthio(mercapto) groups at positions 2 and 5. Several thiadiazole derivatives demonstrated higher antibacterial, antitumor and antiviral activities than the standard drugs. Some thiadiazole derivatives exhibited high selective enzymes inhibitory activities based on the electronic properties of the substituents at positions 2 or 5.

Abstract
In the present study, we have reported synthesis and biological evaluation of a series of fifteen 1-(thiophen-2-yl)-9H-pyrido[3,4-b]indole derivatives against both promastigotes and amastigotes of Leishmania parasites responsible for visceral (L. donovani) and cutaneous (L. amazonensis) leishmaniasis. Among these reported analogues, compounds 7b, 7c, 7f, 7g, 7i, 7j, 7m, 7o displayed potent activity (15.55, 7.70, 7.00, 3.80, 14.10, 9.25, 3.10, 4.85μM, respectively) against L. donovani promastigotes than standard drugs miltefosine (15.70μM) and pentamidine (32.70μM) with good selectivity index. In further, in-vitro evaluation against amastigote forms, two compounds 7g (8.80μM) and 7i (7.50μM) showed significant inhibition of L. donovani amastigotes. Standard drug amphotericin B is also used as control to compare inhibition potency of compounds against both promastigote (0.24μM) and amastigote (0.05μM) forms.

Abstract
A series of 2,5-disubstituted-1,3,4-thiadiazoles were synthesized using Lawesson’s reagent by an efficient approach under microwave irradiation in good yields. Their structures were characterized by MS, IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and elemental analysis. Their in vitro and in vivo fungicidal activities revealed that the title compounds exhibited considerable activity against five selected fungi, especially to Phytophthora infestans. In order to illustrate the mechanism of title compounds against P. infestans, scanning electron micrographs (SEM) and transmission electron micrographs (TEM) were applied. The morphological and ultrastructural studies demonstrated that compound I18 led to swelling of hyphae, thickening and proliferating multilayer cell walls, excessive septation and accumulation of dense bodies. The bioassay results indicated compound I18 might act on cell wall biosynthesis, and blocked the nutrition transportation and led to cells senescence and death. Meanwhile, compound I18 had broad fungicidal activity against other twenty different kinds of fungi. These results suggested that title compounds were eligible to be development candidates and compound I18 as a promising lead compound was worthy to be further discovery, especially against P. infestans.

Abstract
A series of 2,5-disubstituted-1,3,4-thiadiazole derivatives 5a-5l, 7a-7e and 9 have been synthesised and screened for in vitro antimycobacterial activity against Mycobacterium smegmatis MC-155. In addition these compounds have also been screened for cytotoxic activity against cancer cell lines HT-29, MDA-MB-231 by MTT colorimetric assay. The compounds are well characterized by spectral analysis viz. (1)H NMR, (13)C NMR, FT-IR, mass and HRMS. Screening results indicate that compounds 5g, 7a possess good antitubercular activity with MIC value 65.74 and 40.86, respectively, compounds 5g, 7a, 7b, 7d, 7e and 9 displayed promising cytotoxic activity against the cell lines tested. 5g and 7a stand out to be potent antimycobacterial and anticancer agents among the tested series. Further the title compounds were also tested on human normal cells HEK293T and are found to be safer with lesser cytotoxicity. It is interesting to observe that compound 5g has come out to be safer, potent anticancer and antimycobacterial agent.

Abstract
Eighteen novel benzamidine derivatives containing 1,2,3-triazole moieties were synthesized. The in vitro and in vivo fungicidal acitivities of the title compounds and the arylamidine intermediates against Colletotrichum lagenarium and Botrytis cinerea were tested. The synthesized benzamidines exhibited weak antifungal activities in vitro against the tested fungi, but some of the compounds showed excellent activities in vivo to the same strains. Among the compounds tested, 9b showed 79% efficacy in vivo against C. lagenarium at a concentration of 200 μg/mL, and the efficacy of compound 16d (90%) toward the same strain was even superior than that of the commercial fungicide carbendazim (85%).

Anti-tuberculosis evaluation and conformational study of N-acylhydrazones containing the thiophene nucleus. Arch Pharm (Weinheim) 2014; 347:432-48. [PMID: 24616002 DOI: 10.1002/ardp.201300417] [Citation(s) in RCA: 23] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/05/2013] [Revised: 12/10/2013] [Accepted: 12/11/2013] [Indexed: 01/01/2023]
Abstract
A series of N-acylhydrazonyl-thienyl derivatives (compounds 2 and 3), mainly of the type 2-(aryl-CH=N-NHCOCH2 )-thiene (2: aryl = substituted-phenyl; 3: aryl = heteroaryl) were evaluated against Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Particularly active compound was 3 (heteroaryl = 5-nitrothien-2-yl or 5-nitrofuran-2-yl) with MIC values of 8.5 and 9.0 μM, respectively. Moderately active compounds were compound 3 (heteroaryl = pyridin-2-yl) and compound 2 containing aryl = 2- or 4-hydroxyphenyl groups, with MIC values between 170 and 408 μM. Compound 2 containing OMe, H, F, Cl, Br, CN, and NO2 substituents and compound 3 (heteroaryl = furan-2-yl, thien-2-yl, pyrrol-2-yl, imidazol-2-yl, pyridin-3-yl, and pyridin-4-yl) were all inactive. Clearly, there is no correlation of activity with the electronic effects of the substituents. The activities suggest different modes of biological action of the compounds having nitro-heteroaryl groups, on the one hand, and the 2-hydroxyphenyl or pyridin-2-yl substituents, on the other hand. Compounds having 2- or 4-hydroxyphenyl, 2-hydroxy-5-nitrophenyl, or 4-hydroxy-3-chlorophenyl were less cytotoxic than ethambutol. It is important to notice that compound 3 (aryl = 5-NO2 -furan-2-yl) exhibited a promising therapeutic index (TI = 1093.90), with a value 4.4 less than that of ethambutol. Compounds 2 and 3 exist in DMSO or MeOD solutions as mixtures of EC(O)N /EC=N and ZC(O)N /EC=N conformers.

Abstract
The 1,3,4-thiadiazole nucleus is one of the most important and well-known heterocyclic nuclei, which is a common and integral feature of a variety of natural products and medicinal agents. Thiadiazole nucleus is present as a core structural component in an array of drug categories such as antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, analgesic, antiepileptic, antiviral, antineoplastic, and antitubercular agents. The broad and potent activity of thiadiazole and their derivatives has established them as pharmacologically significant scaffolds. In this study, an attempt has been made with recent research findings on this nucleus, to review the structural modifications on different thiadiazole derivatives for various pharmacological activities.

Abstract
The series of novel N-R-2-[(3-R-2-oxo-2H-[1,2,4]triazino[2,3-c]quinazolin-6-yl)thio]acetamides with thiazole and thiadiazole fragments in a molecule were obtained by alkylation of potassium salts 1.1–1.4 by N-hetaryl-2-chloroacetamides and by aminolysis of activated acids 2.1–2.4 with N,N’-carbonyldiimidazole (CDI). The structures of compounds were determined by IR, 1H NMR, MS, and EI-MS analysis. The results of cytotoxicity evaluated by the bioluminescence inhibition of bacterium Photobacterium leiognathi, Sh1 showed that the compounds have considerable cytotoxicity. The synthesized compounds were tested for anticancer activity in NCI against 60 cell lines. Among the highly active compounds 3.1, 3.2, and 6.5, 2-[(3-methyl-2-oxo-2H-[1,2,4]triazino[2,3-c]quinazolin-6-yl)thio]-N-(1,3-thiazol-2-yl)acetamide (3.1) was found to be the most active anticancer agent against the cell lines of colon cancer (GI50 at 0.41–0.69 μM), melanoma (GI50 0.48–13.50 μM), and ovarian cancer (GI50 0.25–5.01 μM). The structure-activity relationship (SAR-analysis) was discussed.

Abstract
A novel series of 5-(5-nitrofuran-2-yl)-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-amines were synthesized by introducing N-[(1-benzyl-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)methyl] moiety as a new functionality on the C-2 amine of thiadiazole ring via click chemistry. The title compounds namely, N-[(1-benzyl-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)methyl]-5-(5-nitrofuran-2-yl)-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-amines (3a-n) were characterized by IR, NMR and MS spectra. These compounds were evaluated for their in vitro anti-leishmanial activity against promostigote form of the Leishmania major. Most compounds exhibited good anti-leishmanial activity against the promastigote form of L. major. The most active compound against promostigotes was found to be 4-methylbenzyl analog 3i, which significantly decreases the number of intracellular amastigotes per macrophage, percentage of macrophage infectivity and infectivity index.
