Abstract
As a progressive neuropathic condition, glaucoma can cause lifelong blindness if left untreated. Novel phenylpyridazine-tethered sulfonamides were designed as selective inhibitors for carbonic anhydrase (CA) isoform II to find effective therapeutic agents for glaucoma. Subsequently, the target inhibitors were synthesized and assessed for their inhibitory action against cytosolic CA I and II. Interestingly, the synthesized molecules poorly inhibited CA I while exhibiting low subnanomolar potency against CA II. Compound 7c disclosed the most potent activity (IC50 = 0.63 nM) with high selectivity against CA II (605-fold than acetazolamide selectivity). Moreover, compound 7c also showed significant in vivo IOP-reducing properties in the in vivo model of glaucoma. Furthermore, the binding of compound 7c to CA II was assessed at the molecular level, exploiting the molecular docking approach.

Abstract
Pyridazinone analogs possess diverse types of pharmacological activities, such as anticancer, antimicrobial, anticonvulsant, analgesic, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antihypertensive, antisecretory, antiulcer, and other useful pharmacological activities. They also possess cyclooxygenase (COX) inhibitors, dipeptidyl peptidase inhibitors, phosphodiesterase inhibitors, glutamate transporter activators, adenosine receptor antagonists, serotonin receptors antagonists, lipooxygenase, cholinesterase, vasodilator, and anesthetics. Pyridazine rings are the essential structure for some marketed drugs, such as pimobendan, levosimendan as a cardiotonic drug, and emorfozan as an analgesic and anti-inflammatory (Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug) agent. So, researchers all over the world have paid attention to synthesizing various pyridazinone compounds mainly due to the ease of design and synthesis of different analogs and variables in the pharmacological responses. This review article focuses on the pharmacological activities of different pyridazine analogs.

Abstract
Telomerase is an outstanding biological target for cancer treatment. BIBR1532 is a non-nucleoside selective telomerase inhibitor; however, it experiences ineligible pharmacokinetics. Herein, we aimed to design new BIBR1532-based analogues as promising telomerase inhibitors. Therefore, two novel series of pyridazine-linked to cyclopenta[b]thiophene (8a-f) and tetrahydro-1-benzothiophene (9a-f) were synthesized. A quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction was utilized to investigate the telomerase inhibitory activity of candidates. Notably, 8e and 9e exhibited the best inhibition profiles. Moreover, 8e showed strong antitumor effects against both MCF-7 and A549 cancer cell lines. The effects of 8e on the cell cycle and apoptosis were measured. Besides, 8e was evaluated for its in vivo antitumor activity using solid Ehrlich carcinoma. The reduction in both the tumor weight and volume was greater than doxorubicin. Also, molecular docking and ADME studies were performed. Finally, a SAR study was conducted to gain further insights into the different telomerase inhibition potentials upon variable structural modifications.

Abstract
Based on multitarget-directed ligands approach, through two rounds of screening, a series of 2-aminoalkyl-6-(2-hydroxyphenyl)pyridazin-3(2H)-one derivatives were designed, synthesized and evaluated as innovative multifunctional agents against Alzheimer's disease. In vitro biological assays indicated that most of the hybrids were endowed with great AChE inhibitory activity, excellent antioxidant activity and moderate Aβ1-42 aggregation inhibition. Taken both efficacy and balance into account, 12a was identified as the optimal multifunctional ligand with significant inhibition of AChE (EeAChE, IC50 = 0.20 μM; HuAChE, IC50 = 37.02 nM) and anti-Aβ activity (IC50 = 1.92 μM for self-induced Aβ1-42 aggregation; IC50 = 1.80 μM for disaggregation of Aβ1-42 fibrils; IC50 = 2.18 μM for Cu2+-induced Aβ1-42 aggregation; IC50 = 1.17 μM for disaggregation of Cu2+-induced Aβ1-42 fibrils; 81.7% for HuAChE-induced Aβ1-40 aggregation). Moreover, it was equipped with the potential to serve as antioxidant (3.03 Trolox equivalents), metals chelator and anti-neuroinflammation agent for synergetic treatment. Finally, in vivo study demonstrated that 12a, with suitable BBB permeability (log BB = -0.61), could efficaciously ameliorate cognitive dysfunction on scopolamine-treated mice by regulating cholinergic system and oxidative stress simultaneously. Altogether, these results highlight the potential of 12a as an innovative balanced multifunctional candidate for Alzheimer's disease treatment.

Abstract
Pain and inflammation are unpleasant experiences that usually occur as a result of tissue damage. Despite the number of existing analgesic drugs, side effects limit their use, stimulating the search for new therapeutic agents. In this sense, five hydrazone derivatives (H1, H2, H3, H4, and H5), with general structure R1R2C = NNR3R4, were synthesized with molecular modification strategies. In this paper, we describe the ability of hydrazone derivatives to attenuate nociceptive behavior and the inflammatory response in mice. Antinociceptive activity was evaluated through acetic acid-induced writhing and formalin-induced nociception tests. In both experimental models, the hydrazone with the greatest potency (H5) significantly (p < 0.05) reduced nociceptive behavior. Additionally, methods of acute and chronic inflammation induced by different chemicals (carrageenan and histamine) were performed to evaluate the anti-inflammatory effect of H5. Moreover, molecular docking analysis revealed that H5 can block the COX-2 enzyme, reducing arachidonic acid metabolism and consequently decreasing the production of prostaglandins, which are important inflammatory mediators. H5 also changes locomotor activity. In summary, H5 exhibited relevant antinociceptive and anti-inflammatory potential and acted on several targets, making it a candidate for a new multi-target oral anti-inflammatory drug.

Abstract
Intramolecular electrophilic cyclization of a bisanthranilate afforded an angular cis-quinacridone compound, which condensed with hydrazine to give a phthalazine derivative. A [2+2+2] cyclization reaction occurred at the C-N double bond position of phthalazine when reacted with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate. The structures of these novel compounds were confirmed by crystallographic analysis. The phthalazine derivative decomposes back to quinacridone at ambient condition in the dark and as a solid with a half lifetime of about 22 months.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) present high prevalence rates in the current world. It is estimated that approximately one-third of the global deaths are related to CVDs, and thus there is still a need for novel drugs to treat these disorders. We serendipitously discovered that LINS01005 (5a) is a potent vasodilating agent in rat aorta, and therefore a set of analogues were evaluated for the vasodilating potency in Wistar and SHR rat thoracic aorta precontracted with norepinephrine, with endothelium intact (E+) or denuded (E-) aortic rings. Compounds 5a and 5b were the most potent, showing submicromolar potency for endothelium intact vessels (EC50 853 and 941 nM, respectively) and micromolar values for E- vessels (EC50 2.4 and 7.1 µM, respectively). These compounds were indeed significantly more potent vasodilating agents in SHR-derived aortic rings (p < 0.001), showing nanomolar potency for 5a [EC50 2.4 nM (E+) 9.0 nM (E-)] and 5b [EC50 20 nM (E+) 2.1 µM (E-)]. SAR analysis though PCA and HCA were performed, suggesting that N-phenylpiperazine is essential to the activity, while increasing volume in the substituted aromatic moiety is detrimental to the potency. This is the first report of the vasodilating properties of such compounds, and studies regarding the mechanism of action are in progress in our group.

Abstract
Aim: Hypertension is a major health problem worldwide resulting in high death rates due to its consequences and complications. Therefore, searching for new vasorelaxants is a must to find new vasodilators efficient for the treatment of different cardiovascular diseases. Methodology: Different 6-phenyl-3-pyridazinone based derivatives were synthesized and screened for their vasorelaxant activity according to the reported method using hydralazine as a standard. Results: The tested compounds revealed potent to mild activity with EC50 values 0.339–114.300 μM compared with hydralazine EC50 = 18.210 μM. Conclusion: The most active compounds were the acid 5, its ester analog 4 and 4-methoxyphenylhydrazide derivative 10c (EC50 = 0.339, 1.225 and 1.204 μM, respectively). Therefore, 6-phenylpyridazin-3(2 H)-one can be a hit for structural optimization to obtain promising vasorelaxants.

Abstract
Aim: Search for new anti-inflammatory agents with higher efficacy and lower toxicity is an urgent demand in drug discovery era. Methodology: Different pyrazoline derivatives 4a,b, 5a,b, 6a–h and 7a–f were prepared from the condensation reactions of 1,5-bis(5-methylfuran/thiophen-2-yl)penta-1,4-dien-3-ones 3a,b with different hydrazine derivatives. All compounds were screened for their anti-inflammatory activity using the carrageenan-induced paw edema method in rats and TNF-α inhibition assay. Results: Many compounds revealed promising anti-inflammatory activity relative to indomethacin especially compounds 4a, 5a, 5b, 6b, 6d, 6f and 7b. They were safe to the gastric mucosa and did not cause toxicity up to tenfolds the anti-inflammatory dose, in addition, all compounds inhibited TNF-α with IC50 values of 1.7–100 nM.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The Multidimensional quantitative structure-activity relationship (multidimensional-QSAR) method is one of the most popular computational methods employed to predict interesting biochemical properties of existing or hypothetical molecules. With continuous progress, the QSAR method has made remarkable success in various fields, such as medicinal chemistry, material science and predictive toxicology. Areas covered: In this review, the authors cover the basic elements of multidimensional -QSAR including model construction, validation and application. It includes and emphasizes the very recent developments of multidimensional -QSAR such as: HQSAR, G-QSAR, MIA-QSAR, multi-target QSAR. The advantages and disadvantages of each method are also discussed and typical examples of their application are detailed. Expert opinion: Although there are defects in multidimensional-QSAR modeling, it is still of enormous help to chemists, biologists and other researchers in various fields. In the authors' opinion, the latest more precise and feasible QSAR models should be further developed by integrating new descriptors, algorithms and other relevant computational techniques. Apart from being applied in traditional fields (e.g. lead optimization and predictive risk assessment), QSAR should be used more widely as a routine method in other emerging research fields including the modeling of nanoparticles(NPs), mixture toxicity and peptides.
