[PMID: 38005384 PMCID: PMC10674446 DOI: 10.3390/molecules28227662] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/02/2023] [Revised: 11/16/2023] [Accepted: 11/17/2023] [Indexed: 11/26/2023] Open
Abstract
Many new isomeric dipyridothiazine dimers have been presented as molecules with anticancer potential. These compounds were obtained in efficient syntheses of 1,6-, 1,8-, 2,7- and 3,6-diazaphenothiazines with selected alkylaromatic linkers. The structures of these compounds has been proven with two-dimensional spectroscopic techniques (COSY, NOESY, HSQC and HMBC) and high-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS). In silico analyses of probable molecular targets were performed using the Way2Drug server. All new dimers were tested for anticancer activity against breast cancer line MCF7 and colon cancer line SW480. Cytotoxicity was assessed on normal L6 muscle cells. The tested dimers had high anticancer potential expressed as IC50 and the selectivity index SI. The most active derivative, 4c, showed an IC50 activity of less than 1 µM and an SI selectivity index higher than 100. Moreover, the compounds were characterized by low toxicity towards normal cells, simultaneously indicating a high cytostatic potential.

Synthesis and Evaluation of Anticonvulsant Activity of Some Schiff Bases of 7-Amino-1,3-dihydro-2H-1,4-benzodiazepin-2-one. Chem Biodivers 2020; 17:e2000342.

Abstract
A variety of 1,3-dihydro-2H-1,4-benzodiazepin-2-one azomethines and 1,3-dihydro-2H-1,4-benzodiazepin-2-one benzamide were prepared, characterized and evaluated for the anticonvulsant activity in the rat using picrotoxin-induced seizure model. The prepared 1,3-dihydro-2H-1,4-benzodiazepin-2-one azomethine derivatives emerged potentially anticonvulsant molecular scaffolds exemplified by compounds, 7-{(E)-[(4-nitrophenyl)methylidene]amino}-5-phenyl-1,3-dihydro-2H-1,4-benzodiazepin-2-one, 7-[(E)-{[4-(dimethylamino)phenyl]methylidene}amino]-5-phenyl-1,3-dihydro-2H-1,4-benzodiazepin-2-one, 7-{(E)-[(4-bromo-2,6-difluorophenyl)methylidene]amino}-5-phenyl-1,3-dihydro-2H-1,4-benzodiazepin-2-one and 7-[(E)-{[3-(4-fluorophenyl)-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl]methylidene}amino]-5-phenyl-1,3-dihydro-2H-1,4-benzodiazepin-2-one. All these four compounds have shown substantial decrease in the wet dog shake numbers and grade of convulsions with respect to the standard drug diazepam. The most active compound, 7-[(E)-{[4-(dimethylamino)phenyl]methylidene}amino]-5-phenyl-1,3-dihydro-2H-1,4-benzodiazepin-2-one, exhibited 74 % protection against convulsion which was higher than the standard drug diazepam. Furthermore, to identify the binding mode of the interaction amongst the target analogs and binding site of the benzodiazepine receptor, molecular docking study and molecular dynamic simulation were carried out. Additionally, in silico pharmacokinetic and toxicity predictions of target compounds were carried out using AdmetSAR tool. Results of ADMET studies suggest that the pharmacokinetic parameters of all the target compounds were within the acceptable range to become a potential drug candidate as antiepileptic agents.

Abstract
One hundred ten compounds of diverse structures (actives and excipients used in pharmaceutical preparations) were studied by RP-18 HPLC with acetonitrile-pH 7.4 phosphate buffer 1 : 1 (v/v) as the mobile phase. The relationships between the BBB permeation coefficients and the chromatographic parameters log k and (log k)/PSA were compared to those between the blood-brain barrier (BBB) permeation parameters and the RP-18 TLC descriptors Rf and Rf/PSA known from our earlier studies. It was found that the correlations between the BBB permeability and the HPLC data are slightly worse than those achieved for the thin-layer chromatographic data. MLR analysis based upon the physicochemical data confirmed the value of the molecular descriptors, related to the CNS bioavailability. These variables, combined with the HPLC data, made it possible to generate computational models, explaining 70–96% of the total variance of the CNS bioavailability. Contrary to TLC Rf, the advantage of the modification of HPLC log k with PSA (polar surface area) has not been confirmed and the results obtained with log k are superior to those obtained after a novel (log k)/PSA parameter has been introduced. Establishing a firm threshold limit of (log k)/PSA, log k, or even k and k/PSA to distinguish between the CNS+ and CNS− compounds was impossible. On the other hand, discriminant function analyses involving log k and (log k)/PSA as discriminating variables separated the CNS+ and CNS− compounds with the success rate ca. 90%. On the basis of these results, it was concluded that the RP-18 HPLC analytical models are entirely successful in studies and predictions of the BBB permeability.

Abstract
AbstractThe Blood-Brain Barrier (BBB) permeability is an important factor governing a drug’s ability to act upon the Central Nervous System. The measure of the BBB permeability used throughout this study is the log BB (the blood/brain partitioning coefficient) measured in vivo or calculated. Useful yet simple models of the BBB permeability were developed by Stepwise Multiple Regression Analysis based on the chromatographic parameters Rf and Rf/PSA obtained by RP-18 TLC with acetonitrile - pH 7.4 phosphate buffered saline 70:30 (v/v) as mobile phase, combined with descriptors - the number of H-bond donors (HD), the number of H-bond acceptors (HA), energy of the highest occupied molecular orbital – (eH), energy of the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (eL). The ability of the solutes to cross the BBB has been studied qualitatively using Discriminant Function Analysis. Almost all compounds with the known BB vivo parameter were correctly classified as CNS+/-. The classification functions based on Rf/PSA have been verified using an external group. The results of the chromatographic analysis proposed in this study (RP-18 TLC) are a source of valuable information on the BBB permeability of compounds available even on a very small scale.

Williams LM, He X, Vaid TM, Abdul‐Ridha A, Whitehead AR, Gooley PR, Bathgate RA, Williams SJ, Scott DJ. Diazepam is not a direct allosteric modulator of α 1-adrenoceptors, but modulates receptor signaling by inhibiting phosphodiesterase-4. Pharmacol Res Perspect 2019; 7:e00455. [PMID: 30619611 PMCID: PMC6306559 DOI: 10.1002/prp2.455] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/10/2018] [Revised: 11/30/2018] [Accepted: 12/04/2018] [Indexed: 12/19/2022] Open
Abstract
α1A- and α1B-adrenoceptors (ARs) are G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) that are activated by adrenaline and noradrenaline to modulate smooth muscle contraction in the periphery, and neuronal outputs in the central nervous system (CNS). α1A- and α1B-AR are clinically targeted with antagonists for hypertension and benign prostatic hyperplasia and are emerging CNS targets for treating neurodegenerative diseases. The benzodiazepines midazolam, diazepam, and lorazepam are proposed to be positive allosteric modulators (PAMs) of α1-ARs. Here, using thermostabilized, purified, α1A- and α1B-ARs, we sought to identify the benzodiazepine binding site and modulatory mechanism to inform the design of selective PAMs. However, using a combination of biophysical approaches no evidence was found for direct binding of several benzodiazepines to purified, stabilized α1A- and α1B-ARs. Similarly, in cell-based assays expressing unmodified α1A- and α1B-ARs, benzodiazepine treatment had no effect on fluorescent ligand binding, agonist-stimulated Ca2+ release, or G protein activation. In contrast, several benzodiazepines positively modulated phenylephrine stimulation of a cAMP response element pathway by α1A- and α1B-ARs; however, this was shown to be caused by off-target inhibition of phosphodiesterases, known targets of diazepam. This study highlights how purified, stabilized GPCRs are useful for validating allosteric ligand binding and that care needs to be taken before assigning new targets to benzodiazepines.
