Advances in drug design and therapeutic potential of selective or multitarget 5-HT1A receptor ligands. Med Res Rev 2024. [PMID: 38808959 DOI: 10.1002/med.22049] [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: 12/21/2023] [Revised: 03/14/2024] [Accepted: 05/03/2024] [Indexed: 05/30/2024]
Abstract
5-HT1A receptor (5-HT1A-R) is a serotoninergic G-protein coupled receptor subtype which contributes to several physiological processes in both central nervous system and periphery. Despite being the first 5-HT-R identified, cloned and studied, it still represents a very attractive target in drug discovery and continues to be the focus of a myriad of drug discovery campaigns due to its involvement in numerous neuropsychiatric disorders. The structure-activity relationship studies (SAR) performed over the last years have been devoted to three main goals: (i) design and synthesis of 5-HT1A-R selective/preferential ligands; (ii) identification of 5-HT1A-R biased agonists, differentiating pre- versus post-synaptic agonism and signaling cellular mechanisms; (iii) development of multitarget compounds endowed with well-defined poly-pharmacological profiles targeting 5-HT1A-R along with other serotonin receptors, serotonin transporter (SERT), D2-like receptors and/or enzymes, such as acetylcholinesterase and phosphodiesterase, as a promising strategy for the management of complex psychiatric and neurodegenerative disorders. In this review, medicinal chemistry aspects of ligands acting as selective/preferential or multitarget 5-HT1A-R agonists and antagonists belonging to different chemotypes and developed in the last 7 years (2017-2023) have been discussed. The development of chemical and pharmacological 5-HT1A-R tools for molecular imaging have also been described. Finally, the pharmacological interest of 5-HT1A-R and the therapeutic potential of ligands targeting this receptor have been considered.

Abstract
Molecular hybridization represents a new approach in drug discovery in which specific chromophores are strategically combined to create novel drugs with enhanced therapeutic effects. This innovative strategy leverages the strengths of individual chromophores to address complex biological challenges, synergize beneficial properties, optimize pharmacokinetics, and overcome limitations associated with single-agent therapies. Coumarins are documented to possess several bioactivities and have therefore been targeted for combination with other active moieties to create molecular hybrids. This review summarizes recent (2013-2023) trends in the synthesis of coumarins, as well as coumarin-chalcone and coumarin-triazole molecular hybrids. To cover the wide aspects of this area, we have included differently substituted coumarins, chalcones, 1,2,3- and 1,2,4-triazoles in this review and considered the point of fusion/attachment with coumarin to show the diversity of these hybrids. The reported syntheses mainly relied on well-established chemistry without the need for strict reaction conditions and usually produced high yields. Additionally, we discussed the bioactivities of the reported compounds, including antioxidative, antimicrobial, anticancer, antidiabetic, and anti-cholinesterase activities and commented on their IC50 where possible. Promising bioactivity results have been obtained so far. It is noted that mechanistic studies are infrequently found in the published work, which was also mentioned in this review to give the reader a better understanding. This review aims to provide valuable information to enable further developments in this field.

[PMID: 36111795 DOI: 10.1002/med.21923] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/14/2021] [Revised: 07/29/2022] [Accepted: 08/09/2022] [Indexed: 02/04/2023]
Abstract
Dopamine is a biologically active amine synthesized in the central and peripheral nervous system. This biogenic monoamine acts by activating five types of dopamine receptors (D1-5 Rs), which belong to the G protein-coupled receptor family. Antagonists and partial agonists of D2 Rs are used to treat schizophrenia, Parkinson's disease, depression, and anxiety. The typical pharmacophore with high D2 R affinity comprises four main areas, namely aromatic moiety, cyclic amine, central linker and aromatic/heteroaromatic lipophilic fragment. From the literature reviewed herein, we can conclude that 4-(2,3-dichlorophenyl), 4-(2-methoxyphenyl)-, 4-(benzo[b]thiophen-4-yl)-1-substituted piperazine, and 4-(6-fluorobenzo[d]isoxazol-3-yl)piperidine moieties are critical for high D2 R affinity. Four to six atoms chains are optimal for D2 R affinity with 4-butoxyl as the most pronounced one. The bicyclic aromatic/heteroaromatic systems are most frequently occurring as lipophilic appendages to retain high D2 R affinity. In this review, we provide a thorough overview of the therapeutic potential of D2 R modulators in the treatment of the aforementioned disorders. In addition, this review summarizes current knowledge about these diseases, with a focus on the dopaminergic pathway underlying these pathologies. Major attention is paid to the structure, function, and pharmacology of novel D2 R ligands, which have been developed in the last decade (2010-2021), and belong to the 1,4-disubstituted aromatic cyclic amine group. Due to the abundance of data, allosteric D2 R ligands and D2 R modulators from patents are not discussed in this review.

Application of Antisolvent Precipitation Method for Formulating Excipient-Free Nanoparticles of Psychotropic Drugs. Pharmaceutics 2022; 14:pharmaceutics14040819. [PMID: 35456653 PMCID: PMC9029518 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics14040819] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/11/2022] [Revised: 03/31/2022] [Accepted: 04/07/2022] [Indexed: 12/04/2022] Open
Abstract
The aim of the present study was to systematically examine the effects of variations in the process parameters of the antisolvent precipitation method employed in the preparation of excipient-free pure nanoparticles of five existing/potential psychotropic drugs, namely amitriptyline hydrochloride (AMI), coumarin 6 (COU), curcumin (CUR), nortriptyline hydrochloride (NOR), and prochlorperazine dimaleate (PRO). In the preparation protocols employed, AMI and NOR were expected to be charged enough to be identified as surface-active molecules. Through the employment of five different preparation protocols, the effects of varying the flow rate, the compound concentration in the solvent solution C0solvent, the solvent:antisolvent ratio (SAS-ratio), and pH of the antisolvent on the final size of the particles DHf were investigated in detail and the results were explained using available theories for the antisolvent precipitation method. We found that DHf increased with the average of the octanol-water partition coefficients (logP)av of the compound. Moreover, the average of the final particle sizes (DHf)av increased linearly with (logP)av. These findings are useful for predicting the size of nanodrugs prepared through the antisolvent precipitation method.

Abstract
A series of benzoisoxazoleylpiperidine derivatives were synthesized by using the multi-target strategies and their potent affinities for dopamine (DA), serotonin (5-HT) and human histamine H3 receptors have been evaluated. Of these compounds, the promising candidate 4w displayed high affinities for D2, D3, 5-HT1A, 5-HT2A and H3, a moderate affinity for 5-HT6, negligible effects on the human ether-a-go-go-related gene (hERG) channel, low affinities for off-target receptors (5-HT2C, adrenergic α1 and H1). In addition, the animal behavioral study revealed that, compared to risperidone, compound 4w significantly inhibited apomorphine-induced climbing and MK-801-induced movement behaviors with a high threshold for catalepsy and low liabilities for weight gain and hyperprolactinemia. Results from the conditioned avoidance response test and novel object recognition task demonstrated that 4w had pro-cognitive effects. Thus, the antipsychotic drug-like activities of 4w indicate that it may be a potential polypharmacological antipsychotic candidate drug.

Abstract
In this study, we designed and synthesized a novel series of multi-receptor ligands as polypharmacological antipsychotic agents by using a multi-receptor affinity strategy. Among them, 3w combines a multi-receptor mechanism with high mixed affinities for D2, 5-HT1A, 5-HT2A and H3 receptors, and low efficacy at the off-target receptors (5-HT2C, H1 and α1 receptor) and human ether-à-go-go-related gene (hERG) channel. In addition, compound 3w exhibits favorable antipsychotic drug-like activities in in vivo assessment. An animal behavioral study revealed that compound 3w significantly reverses apomorphine-induced climbing and MK-801-induced hyperactivity, and avoidance behavior in the CAR test, with a high threshold for catalepsy. Moreover, compound 3w demonstrates memory enhancement in a novel object recognition task and low liabilities for weight gain and hyperprolactinemia in a long-term metabolic adverse effects model. Thus, 3w was selected as an antipsychotic candidate for further development. In this study, we designed and synthesized a novel series of multi-receptor ligands as polypharmacological antipsychotic agents by using a multi-receptor affinity strategy.![]()

Biotechnological Potential of Eugenol and Thymol Derivatives Against Staphylococcus aureus from Bovine Mastitis. Curr Microbiol 2021; 78:1846-1855.

Abstract
Bovine mastitis is an infectious disease that affects the mammary gland of dairy cattle with considerable economic losses. Staphylococcus aureus is the main microorganism involved in this highly contagious process, and the treatment is only using antibiotics. Currently, the search for new treatment and/or compounds is still in need due to microbial resistance. In this work, we evaluated the potential of eugenol and thymol derivatives against S. aureus strains from bovine mastitis. On that purpose, nine derivatives were synthesized from eugenol and thymol (1-9), and tested against 15 strains of S. aureus from subclinical bovine mastitis. Initially, the strains were evaluated for the biofilm production profile, and those with strong adherence were selected to the antimicrobial sensitivity determination in the Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) assays. Herein the compounds toxicity was also evaluated by in silico analysis using Osiris DataWarrior® software. The results showed that 60% of the strains were considered strongly adherent and three strains (S. aureus 4271, 4745 and 4746) were selected for the MIC tests. Among the nine eugenol and thymol derivatives tested, four were active against the evaluated strains (MIC = 32 µg mL-1) within CLSI standard values. In silico analysis showed that all derivatives had cLopP < 5, cLogS > - 4 and TPSA < 140 Å2, and similar theoretical toxicity parameters to some antibiotics currently on the market. These molecules also showed negative drug-likeness values, pointing to the originality of these structures and theoretical feasibility on escaping of resistance mechanism and act against resistant strains. Thus, these eugenol derivatives may be considered as promising for the development of new treatments against bovine mastitis and future exploring on this purpose.

Abstract
We have designed and synthesized a series of 60 new 5- and 7-hydroxycoumarin derivatives bearing the piperazine moiety with the expected binding to 5-HT1A and 5-HT2A receptors. Molecular docking of all investigated compounds revealed subnanomolar estimates of 5-HT1AR Ki for three ligands and 5-HT2AR Ki for one ligand as well as numerous low nanomolar estimates of Ki for both receptors. Intrigued by these results we synthesized all 60 new derivatives using microwave-assisted protocols. We show that three new compounds show a relatively high antagonistic activity against the 5HT1A receptor, although lower than the reference compound WAY-100635. These compounds also showed relatively low binding affinities to the 5-HT2A receptor. We also provide a detailed structure-activity analysis of this series of compounds and compare it with previously obtained results for an exhaustive series of coumarin derivatives.

Abstract
We report the optimisation of a series of novel amide-piperidine (piperazine) derivatives using the multiple ligand approach with dopamine and serotonin receptors. Of the derivatives, compound 11 exhibited high affinity for the D2, 5-HT1A, and 5-HT2A receptors, but low affinity for the 5-HT2C and histamine H1 receptors and human ether-a-go-go-related gene (hERG) channels. In vivo, compound 11 reduced apomorphine-induced climbing, MK-801-induced hyperactivity and DOI-induced head twitching without observable catalepsy, even at the highest dose tested. In addition, it exhibited suppression in a CAR test. Furthermore, in a novel object recognition task, it displayed procognition properties. Therefore, compound 11 is a promising candidate multi-target antipsychotic.

Molecules 2020; 25:molecules25184107. [PMID: 32911828 PMCID: PMC7571155 DOI: 10.3390/molecules25184107] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/17/2020] [Revised: 08/26/2020] [Accepted: 08/28/2020] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
The design of a series of novel flavone derivatives was synthesized as potential broad-spectrum antipsychotics by using multi-receptor affinity strategy between dopamine receptors and serotonin receptors. Among them, 7-(4-(4-(6-fluorobenzo[d]isoxazol-3-yl) piperidin- 1-yl) butoxy)-2,2-dimethylchroman-4-one (6j) exhibited a promising preclinical profile. Compound 6j not only showed high affinity for dopamine D2, D3, and serotonin 5-HT1A, 5-HT2A receptors, but was also endowed with low to moderate activities on 5-HT2C, α1, and H1 receptors, indicating a low liability to induce side effects such as weight gain, orthostatic hypotension and QT prolongation. In vivo behavioral studies suggested that 6j has favorable effects in alleviating the schizophrenia-like symptoms without causing catalepsy. Taken together, compound 6j has the potential to be further developed as a novel atypical antipsychotic.

Abstract
A number of psychiatric disorders, including anxiety, schizophrenia, Parkinson's disease, depression and others CNS diseases are known to induce defects in the function of neural pathways sustained by the neurotransmitters, like dopamine and serotonin. N-arylpiperazine moiety is important for CNS-activity, particularly for serotonergic and dopaminergic activity. In the scientific literature there are many examples of coumarin-piperazine derivatives, particularly with arylpiperazines linked to a coumarin system via an alkyl liner, which can modulate serotonin, dopamine and adrenergic receptors. Numerous studies have revealed that the inclusion of a piperazine moiety could occasionally provide unexpected improvements in the bioactivity of various biologically active compounds. The piperazine analogs have been shown to have a potent antimicrobial activity and they can also act as BACE-1 inhibitors. On the other hand, arylpiperazines linked to coumarin derivatives have been shown to have antiproliferative activity against leukemia, lung, colon, breast, and prostate tumors. Recently, it has been reported that coumarin-piperazine derivatives exhibit a Fneuroprotective effect by their antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities and they also show activity as acetylcholinesterase inhibitors and antifilarial activity. In this work we provide a summary of the latest advances in coumarin-related chemistry relevant for biological activity.

Abstract
Two series of hybrid analogues were designed, synthesized, and evaluated as a novel class of selective ligands for the dopamine D3 receptor. Binding affinities of target compounds were determined (using the method of radioligand binding assay). Compared to comparator agent BP897, compounds 2a and 2c were found to demonstrate a considerable binding affinity and selectivity for D3 receptor, and especially compound 2h was similarly potent and more selective D3R ligand than BP897, a positive reference. Thus, they may provide valuable information for the discovery and development of highly potent dopamine D3 receptor ligands with outstanding selectivity.

Abstract
To further increase the energy and power densities of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs), monoclinic Li3 V2 (PO4 )3 attracts much attention. However, the intrinsic low electrical conductivity (2.4 × 10-7 S cm-1 ) and sluggish kinetics become major drawbacks that keep Li3 V2 (PO4 )3 away from meeting its full potential in high rate performance. Recently, significant breakthroughs in electrochemical performance (e.g., rate capability and cycling stability) have been achieved by utilizing advanced nanotechnologies. The nanostructured Li3 V2 (PO4 )3 hybrid cathodes not only improve the electrical conductivity, but also provide high electrode/electrolyte contact interfaces, favorable electron and Li+ transport properties, and good accommodation of strain upon Li+ insertion/extraction. In this Review, light is shed on recent developments in the application of 0D (nanoparticles), 1D (nanowires and nanobelts), 2D (nanoplates and nanosheets), and 3D (nanospheres) Li3 V2 (PO4 )3 for high-performance LIBs, especially highlighting their synthetic strategies and promising electrochemical properties. Finally, the future prospects of nanostructured Li3 V2 (PO4 )3 cathodes are discussed.

Abstract
One of the latest trends is search for the new anti-psychotic drugs among coumarin derivatives with piperazine moiety. Their therapeutic potential can be hampered by poor physico-chemical parameters as low brain penetration or limited transport in the body fluid. Herein, we predicted the drug likeness of six coumarins with high affinity towards 5-HT1A and 5-HT2A receptors. Subsequent experimental determination of their binding constants to human serum albumin (HSA) revealed the binding with a moderate strength (logK=4.8-5.8) at the Sudlow's site 1, which represents a possibility of temporary storage of tested coumarins on HSA. Computational mapping of the binding of coumarins - HSA complexes showed that the coumarin rings of all tested compounds were similarly located within the hydrophobic binding pocket of HSA, while the rest of molecules (composed with alkyl chains, piperazine and benzene rings) decided about the difference in binding modes by the hydrogen bonding interactions. The proton dissociation constants (pKa) of the compounds were also determined by UV-vis spectrophotometric titrations to obtain the distribution of the species in the different protonation states at physiological pH of 7.4. A good agreement of the computationally-determined free enthalpy values of the ligand - HSA complexes with the values determined by experimental fluorescence quenching data could be a promising prospect for proposed theoretical strategy.

Abstract
The benzisoxazole analogs represent one of the privileged structures in medicinal chemistry and there has been an increasing number of studies on benzisoxazole-containing compounds. The unique benzisoxazole scaffold also exhibits an impressive potential as antimicrobial, anticancer, anti-inflammatory, anti-glycation agents and so on. This review examines the state of the art in medicinal chemistry as it relates to the comprehensive and general summary of the different benzisoxazole analogs, their use as starting building blocks of multifarious architectures on scales sufficient to drive human drug trials. The number of reports describing benzisoxazole-containing highly active compounds leads to the expectation that this scaffold will further emerge as a potential candidate in the field of drug discovery.

Abstract
A series of 18 new 5-[3-(4-aryl-1-piperazinyl)propoxy]coumarin derivatives from the corresponding bromoalkyl derivatives have been designed and synthesized by us using a microwave-assisted protocol. Radioligand binding assays of this series of compounds as well as a previously synthesized series of 17 structurally-similar compounds showed that six systems have very high affinities to the 5-HT1A receptor (0.3-1.0 nM) and good selectivity against the 5-HT2A receptor. Molecular docking, structural studies and structure-activity relationship studies were used to gain more insight into the atomistic details of ligand binding and rationalize the obtained results.

Abstract
We synthesized a series of aryl/heteroarylpiperazinyl derivatives of 8-acetyl-7-hydroxy-4-methylcoumarin and evaluated their antidepressant-like activity. We used a fast, microwave-assisted synthesis protocol and 1H, 13C NMR and HRMS spectrometry to confirm the structure of all compounds. We also used radioligand binding assays to determine the affinities towards 5-HT1A and 5-HT2A receptors and performed molecular docking studies to rationalize obtained results. Among the evaluated compounds seven displayed high affinity to the 5-HT1A (3a-1.3 nM, 5a-1.6 nM, 10a-1.6 nM, 11a-1.0 nM, 3b-1.0 nM, 5b-0.8 nM and 11b-1.5 nM) as well as significant 5-HT1A antagonist profiles. The equilibrium dissociation constant values of tested compounds shown differential intrinsic activity (3a-190 nM, 3b-28 nM, 5a-48 nM, 5b-23 nM, 10b-180 nM, 11a-99 nM, 11b-38 nM) of antagonist mode. Molecular docking studies using a homology model of 5-HT1A revealed that ligand 5b is stabilized mainly by hydrogen bonds to Ser190.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Benzisoxazoles represent a class of heterocyclic compounds of great importance for the preparation of biologically active compounds. Benzisoxazoles are an important structure and some benzisoxazole-based medicines have been approved for human clinical use, including atypical antipsychotics (risperidone, paliperidone and iloperidone) and an anticonvulsant (zonisamide). AREAS COVERED This review puts emphasis on the recent progress in therapeutically attractive benzisoxazole derivatives especially 1,2-benzisoxazoles, which were published in the patent literature between 2009 and 2014. As for the class of medicines, the main focus is on atypical antipsychotics and potential therapeutic treatments for other CNS disorders. This review also covers the examples of benzisoxazole-based kinase inhibitors. Moreover, novel benzisoxazoles with significant therapeutic interest are also mentioned. EXPERT OPINION More recent examples of structural modification of existing drugs led to the discovery of some promising benzisoxazoles for antipsychotic use. The design of multi-target ligands is important for the manipulation of pharmacological properties and safety profiles for the use of antipsychotics. Benzisoxazoles have been widely used as pharmacophores in the search for novel drug candidates in a variety of therapeutic area. It is fair to assume that the wide and frequent use of benzisoxazoles in drug discovery and development will continue into the future.
