Biomed Chromatogr 2024; 38:e5867.

Abstract
Fourteen donepezil-like acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitors from our library were analyzed using reversed-phase thin-layer chromatography to assess their lipophilicity and blood-brain barrier permeability. Compounds possessed N-benzylpiperidine and N,N-diarylpiperazine moieties connected via a short carboxamide or amine linker. Retention parameters RM 0, b, and C0 were considered as the measures of lipophilicity. Besides, logD of the investigated compounds was determined chromatographically using standard compounds with known logPow and logD values at pH 11. Experimentally obtained lipophilicity parameters correlated well with in silico generated results, and the effect of the nature of the linker between two pharmacophores and substituents on the arylpiperazine part of the molecule was observed. As a result of drug-likeness analysis, both Lipinski's rule of five and Veber's rule parameters were determined, suggesting that examined compounds could be potential candidates for further drug development. Principal component analysis was performed to obtain an insight into a grouping of compounds based on calculated structural descriptors, experimentally obtained values of lipophilicity, and AChE inhibitory activity.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) such as heart failure, stroke, and hypertension affect 64.3 million people worldwide and are responsible for 30% of all deaths. Primary inhibition of the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) is significant in the management of CVD. In the present study, the genetic algorithm-multiple linear regressions (GA-MLR) method is used to generate highly predictive and statistically significant (R2 = 0.70-0.75, Q2LOO=0.67-0.73, Q2LMO=0.66-0.72, CCCex=0.70-0.78) quantitative structure-activity relationships (QSAR) models conferring to OECD requirements using a dataset of 255 structurally diverse and experimentally validated ACE inhibitors. The models contain simply illustratable Padel, Estate, and PyDescriptors that correlate structural scaffold requisite for ACE inhibition. Also, constraint-based molecular docking reveals an interaction profile between ligands and enzymes which is then correlated with the essential structural features associated with the QSAR models. The QSAR-based virtual screening was utilized to find novel lead molecules from a designed database of 102 thiadiazole derivatives. The Applicability domain (AD), Molecular Docking, Molecular dynamics, and ADMET analysis suggest two compound D24 and D40 are inflexibly linked to the protein binding site and follows drug-likeness properties.Communicated by Ramaswamy H.

Abstract
The minimal inhibitory concentrations (pMIC) are a valuable measure of the biological activity of polypeptides. Numerical data on the pMIC are necessary to systematize knowledge on polypeptides' biochemical behaviour. The model of negative decimal logarithm of pMIC of polypeptides in the form of a mathematical function of a sequence of amino acids is suggested. The suggested model is based on the so-called correlation weights of amino acids together with the correlation weights of fragments of local symmetry (FLS). Three kinds of the FLS are considered: (i) three-symbol fragments '…xyx…', (ii) four-symbol fragments '…xyyx…', and (iii) five-symbol fragments '…xyzyx…'. The models built using the Monte Carlo technique improved by applying the index of ideality of correlation (IIC) and correlation intensity index (CII).

Abstract
The skin permeability of steroids, as investigated in this study, is important because some of these compounds are, or could, be used in preparations applied topically. Several models of skin permeability, involving thin layer chromatographic and calculated descriptors, were generated and validated using Kp reference values obtained in silico and then tested on a group of solutes whose experimental Kp values could be found (log Kpexp). The study established that the most applicable log Kp model is based on RP-18 thin layer chromatographic data (RM) and the calculated descriptors VM (molar volume) and PSA (polar surface area). Two less efficient, yet simple, equations based on PSA or VM combined with HD (H-donor count) can be used with caution for rapid, rough estimations of compounds’ skin permeability prior to their chemical synthesis.

Abstract
Hydantois have been identified as constituents of a number of pharmacologically active molecules. In the present study, we have examined in vitro antiproliferative activity against human colon cancer cell lines HCT-116 of three series of 3-(4-substituted benzyl)-hydantoins with various substituent attached in position 5 of the hydantoin ring. Since the investigated compounds have recently been synthesized and show antiproliferative activity, a good understanding of the properties of the potential drug responsible for their pharmacokinetics is an important goal for their further development. One of the important properties is lipophilicity. Lipophilicity has been assessed by reversed-phase liquid chromatography (high-performance thin-layer chromatography and high-pressure liquid chromatography) by means of direct and indirect (using calibration curve) methods. Chromatographic lipophilicity indices in addition to calculated logP values were compared by hierarchical cluster analysis. The linear solvation energy relationship approach was used to understand and compare the types and relative strength of the molecular interactions that occur in the chromatographic as well as in the n-octanol-water partitioning systems. Finally, correlation between in silico pharmacokinetic predictors and antiproliferative activity was examined. Preliminary quantitative structure-activity relationship modeling indicates that pharmacokinetic predictors capture only one-quarter of all chemical features that are important for antiproliferative activity itself. Among selected descriptors are chromatographic lipophilicity indices.
