Abstract
An unprecedented protocol has been developed for the synthesis of 3,4-heterocycle-fused coumarins from 4-aminocoumarins and aurones through iodine-catalyzed cascade reactions. Dihydropyridine-fused coumarin, pyridine-fused coumarin, and pyrrole-fused coumarin derivatives were achieved in good yields with high selectivity when CH3CN, AcOH, and DMSO were used as the solvent, respectively. This protocol provides several advantages, such as easily available starting materials, high atom economy, friendly environment, and simple procedure.

Design, synthesis and in vitro evaluation of novel thiazole-coumarin hybrids as selective and potent human carbonic anhydrase IX and XII inhibitors. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 268:131548. [PMID: 38642682 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.131548] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/16/2023] [Revised: 03/13/2024] [Accepted: 04/10/2024] [Indexed: 04/22/2024]
Abstract
The coumarin is one of the most promising classes of non-classical carbonic anhydrase (CA, EC 4.2.1.1) inhibitors. In continuation of our ongoing work on search of coumarin based selective carbonic anhydrase inhibitors, a new series of 6-aminocoumarin based 16 novel analogues of coumarin incorporating thiazole (4a-p) have been synthesized and studied for their hCA inhibitory activity against a panel of human carbonic anhydrases (hCAs). Most of these newly synthesized compounds exhibited interesting inhibition constants in the nanomolar range. Among the tested compounds, the compounds 4f having 4-methoxy substitution exhibited activity at 90.9 nM against hCA XII isoform. It is noteworthy to see that all compounds were specifically and selectively active against isoforms hCA IX and hCA XII, with Ki under 1000 nM range. It is anticipated that these newly synthesized coumarin-thiazole hybrids (4a-p) may emerge as potential leads candidates against hCA IX and hCA XII as selective inhibitors compared to hCA I and hCA II.

Abstract
Yellowhorn (Xanthoceras sorbifolium Bunge) is a unique oilseed tree in China with high edible and medicinal value. However, the application potential of yellowhorn has not been adequately explored. In this study, widely targeted metabolomics (HPLC-MS/MS and GC-MS) and network pharmacology were applied to investigate the nutritional potential of yellowhorn leaves and flowers. The widely targeted metabolomics results suggested that the yellowhorn leaf contains 948 non-volatile metabolites and 638 volatile metabolites, while the yellowhorn flower contains 976 and 636, respectively. A non-volatile metabolite analysis revealed that yellowhorn leaves and flowers contain a variety of functional components beneficial to the human body, such as terpenoids, flavonoids, alkaloids, lignans and coumarins, phenolic acids, amino acids, and nucleotides. An analysis of volatile metabolites indicated that the combined action of various volatile compounds, such as 2-furanmethanol, β-icon, and 2-methyl-3-furanthiol, provides the special flavor of yellowhorn leaves and flowers. A network pharmacology analysis showed that various components in the flowers and leaves of yellowhorn have a wide range of biological activities. This study deepens our understanding of the non-volatile and volatile metabolites in yellowhorn and provides a theoretical basis and data support for the whole resource application of yellowhorn.

Abstract
Thrombosis, or the formation of blood clots, can lead to serious medical conditions such as stroke, heart attack, and deep vein thrombosis. The purinoreceptor P2Y12 plays a critical role in the thrombotic pathway and is targeted for therapy to prevent clot formation. However, it is essential to balance the regulation of thrombosis to avoid adverse situations. This study focuses on the P2Y12 receptor and aims to discern the protein residue network and differentiate residues based on their intramolecular interactions. The study utilized a statistical analysis to characterize the significant residues involved in ligand interaction, which helps to identify critical residues that are essential for the function of the receptor. A parametric analysis of interactions of residues in the intraprotein interaction was conducted, which revealed significant residue-based contacts that facilitate protein interactions. By examining the interactions between residues, the mechanisms underlying protein interactions were studied and the importance of specific residues in facilitating these interactions was determined. This research provides important information on P2Y12, and the findings based on the network based significance of interacting residues may contribute to the development of new therapies that target the receptor to prevent clot formation while maintaining a balance in thrombosis regulation to avoid adverse outcomes. Ultimately, this study could lead to improved treatments for thrombotic disorders and better patient outcomes.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disorder and more than 90% of diabetic patients suffer from type-2 diabetes, which is characterized by hyperglycemia. α-Glucosidase inhibition has become an appropriate approach to tackle high blood glucose levels. The current study was focused on synthesizing coumarin-hydrazone hybrids (7a-i) by using facile chemical reactions. The synthesized compounds were characterized by using 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, and IR. To evaluate their anti-diabetic capability, all of the conjugates were screened for in vitro α-glucosidase inhibitory activity to reveal their therapeutic importance. All of the compounds (except 7b) demonstrated significant enzyme inhibitory potential with IC50 values ranging between 2.39-57.52 μM, as compared to the standard inhibitor, acarbose (IC50 = 873.34 ± 1.67 μM). Among them, compound 7c is the most potent α-glucosidase inhibitor (IC50 = 2.39 ± 0.05 μM). Additionally, molecular docking was employed to scrutinize the binding pattern of active compounds within the α-glucosidase binding site. The in silico analysis reflects that hydrazone moiety is an essential pharmacophore for the binding of compounds with the active site residues of the enzyme. This study demonstrates that compounds 7c and 7f deserve further molecular optimization for potential application in diabetic management.

Abstract
A series of coumarin derivatives were designed, synthesized, and evaluated for their antiproliferative activity. Compound 3e exhibited significant antiproliferative activity and was further evaluated at five doses at the National Cancer Institute. It effectively inhibited vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-2 (VEGFR-2) with an IC50 value of 0.082 ± 0.004 µM compared with sorafenib. While compound 3e significantly downregulated total VEGFR-2 and its phosphorylation, it markedly reduced the HUVEC's migratory potential, resulting in a significant disruption in wound healing. Furthermore, compound 3e caused a 22.51-fold increment in total apoptotic level in leukemia cell line HL-60(TB) and a 6.91-fold increase in the caspase-3 level. Compound 3e also caused cell cycle arrest, mostly at the G1/S phase. Antibacterial activity was evaluated against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacterial strains. Compound 3b was the most active derivative, with the same minimum inhibitory concentration and minimum bactericidal concentration value of 128 μg/mL against K. pneumonia and high stability in mammalian plasma. Moreover, compounds 3b and 3f inhibited Gram-negative DNA gyrase with IC50 = 0.73 ± 0.05 and 1.13 ± 0.07 µM, respectively, compared to novobiocin with an IC50 value of 0.17 ± 0.02 µM. The binding affinity and pattern of derivative 3e toward the VEGFR-2 active site and compounds 3a-c and 3f in the DNA gyrase active site were evaluated using molecular modeling. Overall, ADME studies of the synthesized coumarin derivatives displayed promising pharmacokinetic properties.

Abstract
Due to the need for new chemical entities for cardiovascular diseases, we have synthesized a new series of nitrate-coumarins and evaluated their vasorelaxant activity in contraction-relaxation studies using rat aorta rings precontracted with phenylephrine or by depolarization with a high concentration of potassium chloride. Four of the new compounds were able to relax smooth vascular muscle with a similar profile and potency to glyceryl trinitrate (IC50 =12.73 nM) and sodium nitroprusside (IC50 =4.32 nM). Coumarin-7-yl-methyl nitrate (4), the best compound within the series, was able to relax smooth vascular muscle in the low nanomolar range (IC50 =1.92 nM). The mechanisms of action have been explored, being the activation of sGC and the opening of K+ channels involved. Our studies indicate that the new nitrate derivatives are reversible and not deleterious for aortic rings, suggesting that these compounds have a potential interest for the development of new and highly efficient vasodilator drugs.

Abstract
Coumarins is a huge family of phenolic compounds containing a common structure of 2 H -1-benzopyran-2-one. Nowadays, more than 1,300 natural-based coumarins have been identified in a variety of plants, bacteria and fungi, many of them exhibited promising biomedical performance. Daphnetin (7,8-dihydroxycoumarin) is a typical coumarin associated with a couple of bioactivities such as anti-cancer, antibacterial, anti-inflammatory and anti-arthritis. In the treatment of diseases, it has been verified that daphnetin has outstanding therapeutic effects on diabetes, arthritis, transplant rejection, cancer and even on central nervous system diseases. Herein, we summarized the chemical synthetic methodologies, bioactivities, therapeutic potentials and structure-activity relationships of daphnetin and its derivatives. Hopefully, this review would be beneficial for the discovery of new coumarin-based biomedicine in the near future.

Abstract
Introduction Inflammation is a fundamental response of the immune system during tissue damage or pathogen infection to protect and maintain tissue homeostasis. However, inflammation may lead to life-threatening conditions. The most common treatment of inflammation is non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). Nowadays, the development of safer new NSAIDs is critical as most of the existing NSAIDs have serious adverse effects, such as gastrointestinal (GI) toxicity and cardiotoxicity. In the present study, four compounds as Schiff base derivatives of 7-hydroxy-4-formyl coumarin and 7-methoxy-4-formyl coumarin were designed and synthesized aiming to develop a lead compound that exhibits anti-inflammatory activity and circumvents the side effects of NSAIDs, especially GI toxicity. Materials and Methods Lipinski’s rule of five was applied for each designed molecule to evaluate the drug-likeness properties. Molecular docking studies were performed using the ligands and the cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) protein to select the best-scored molecule using AutoDock 4.2.6. The molecules were then synthesized and characterized. An in vitro anti-inflammatory assay of the compounds against the COX-2 receptor was realized through a protein denaturation assay. Results and Discussion All four synthesized ligands passed Lipinski’s rule of five and exhibited higher binding free energy compared to the positive standard control (ibuprofen), and the Ki values of compounds 5, 7, and 8 were in the nanomolar range. However, only compounds 6 and 7 obtained a higher percentage of inhibition of protein denaturation relative to ibuprofen. Conclusion The present study suggested that compound 7 may be a lead molecule because this ligand not only exhibited the best computational and experimental results but also exhibited the strongest correlation between the concentration and percentage of protein denaturation (R = 0.986 and R2 = 0.972) with the lowest P-value (0.014).
