[PMID: 38999185 PMCID: PMC11243076 DOI: 10.3390/molecules29133234] [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: 06/15/2024] [Revised: 07/03/2024] [Accepted: 07/05/2024] [Indexed: 07/14/2024] Open
Abstract
The growing interest in Kv7.2/7.3 agonists originates from the involvement of these channels in several brain hyperexcitability disorders. In particular, Kv7.2/7.3 mutants have been clearly associated with epileptic encephalopathies (DEEs) as well as with a spectrum of focal epilepsy disorders, often associated with developmental plateauing or regression. Nevertheless, there is a lack of available therapeutic options, considering that retigabine, the only molecule used in clinic as a broad-spectrum Kv7 agonist, has been withdrawn from the market in late 2016. This is why several efforts have been made both by both academia and industry in the search for suitable chemotypes acting as Kv7.2/7.3 agonists. In this context, in silico methods have played a major role, since the precise structures of different Kv7 homotetramers have been only recently disclosed. In the present review, the computational methods used for the design of Kv.7.2/7.3 small molecule agonists and the underlying medicinal chemistry are discussed in the context of their biological and structure-function properties.

[PMID: 37503656 DOI: 10.1002/mas.21858] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/29/2022] [Revised: 06/02/2023] [Accepted: 06/25/2023] [Indexed: 07/29/2023]
Abstract
The role of mass spectrometry (MS) has become more important in most application domains in recent years. Pharmaceutical analysis is specific due to its stringent regulation procedures, the need for good laboratory/manufacturing practices, and a large number of routine quality control analyses to be carried out. The role of MS is, therefore, very different throughout the whole drug development cycle. While it dominates within the drug discovery and development phase, in routine quality control, the role of MS is minor and indispensable only for selected applications. Moreover, its role is very different in the case of analysis of small molecule pharmaceuticals and biopharmaceuticals. Our review explains the role of current MS in the analysis of both small-molecule chemical drugs and biopharmaceuticals. Important features of MS-based technologies being implemented, method requirements, and related challenges are discussed. The differences in analytical procedures for small molecule pharmaceuticals and biopharmaceuticals are pointed out. While a single method or a small set of methods is usually sufficient for quality control in the case of small molecule pharmaceuticals and MS is often not indispensable, a large panel of methods including extensive use of MS must be used for quality control of biopharmaceuticals. Finally, expected development and future trends are outlined.

Abstract
AbstractAntibiotic nanocomposite polymers show great promise in treating a variety of pathogens that cause widespread disease. Sodium alginate-grafted diphenylamine (NaAlg-g-DPA) embedded with different ratios of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) was fabricated and characterized through different techniques including FTIR, XRD, and SEM techniques for investigating the antimicrobial activity. XRD confirmed the crystallinity of these compounds, and the average crystal size of Na Alg-g-DPA/Ag was estimated to be 48.6 nm. Then it was applied as an antimicrobial agent and evaluated through two ways (inhibition zone and MIC techniques) against Staphylococcus aureus as gram-positive bacteria with an inhibition zone of 19.31.6 mm and 18.60.63 mm against Escherichia coli as gram-negative bacteria while with increasing the Ag ratio 2:1 there was an enhancement in their biological activity to be 21.90.69 mm against Staphylococcus aureus and with an inhibition zone of 21.32.1 mm against Escherichia coli. The outcomes of this investigation are important for the development of new composite materials with antibacterial properties for industrial applications.

Abstract
![]()
Neuronal Kv7 channels represent important pharmacological
targets
for hyperexcitability disorders including epilepsy. Retigabine is
the prototype Kv7 activator clinically approved for seizure treatment;
however, severe side effects associated with long-term use have led
to its market discontinuation. Building upon the recently described
cryoEM structure of Kv7.2 complexed with retigabine and on previous
structure–activity relationship studies, a small library of
retigabine analogues has been designed, synthesized, and characterized
for their Kv7 opening ability using both fluorescence- and electrophysiology-based
assays. Among all tested compounds, 60 emerged as a potent
and photochemically stable neuronal Kv7 channel activator. Compared
to retigabine, compound 60 displayed a higher brain/plasma
distribution ratio, a longer elimination half-life, and more potent
and effective anticonvulsant effects in an acute seizure model in
mice. Collectively, these data highlight compound 60 as
a promising lead compound for the development of novel Kv7 activators
for the treatment of hyperexcitability diseases.

Liquid chromatographic methods for determination of the new antiepileptic drugs stiripentol, retigabine, rufinamide and perampanel: A comprehensive and critical review. J Pharm Anal 2021; 11:405-421.

Abstract
The new antiepileptic drugs perampanel, retigabine, rufinamide and stiripentol have been recently approved for different epilepsy types. Being them an innovation in the antiepileptics armamentarium, a lot of investigations regarding their pharmacological properties are yet to be performed. Besides, considering their broad anticonvulsant activities, an extension of their therapeutic indications may be worthy of investigation, especially regarding other seizure types as well as other central nervous system disorders. Although different liquid chromatographic (LC) methods coupled with ultraviolet, fluorescence, mass or tandem-mass spectrometry detection have already been developed for the determination of perampanel, retigabine, rufinamide and stiripentol, new and more cost-effective methods are yet required. Therefore, this review summarizes the main analytical aspects regarding the liquid chromatographic methods developed for the analysis of perampanel, retigabine (and its main active metabolite), rufinamide and stiripentol in biological samples and pharmaceutical dosage forms. Furthermore, the physicochemical and stability properties of the target compounds will also be addressed. Thus, this review gathers, for the first time, important background information on LC methods that have been developed and applied for the determination of perampanel, retigabine, rufinamide and stiripentol, which should be considered as a starting point if new (bio)analytical techniques are aimed to be implemented for these drugs.

Abstract
We previously reported that P-retigabine (P-RTG), a retigabine (RTG) analogue bearing a propargyl group at the nitrogen atom in the linker of RTG, displayed moderate anticonvulsant efficacy. Recently, our further efforts led to the discovery of HN37 (pynegabine), which demonstrated satisfactory chemical stability upon deleting the ortho liable -NH2 group and installing two adjacent methyl groups to the carbamate motif. HN37 exhibited enhanced activation potency toward neuronal Kv7 channels and high in vivo efficacy in a range of pre-clinical seizure models, including the maximal electroshock test and a 6 Hz model of pharmacoresistant limbic seizures. With its improved chemical stability, strong efficacy, and better safety margin, HN37 has progressed to clinical trial in China for epilepsy treatment.

Abstract
The rising interest in Kv7 modulators originates from their ability to evoke fundamental electrophysiological perturbations in a tissue-specific manner. A large number of therapeutic applications are, in part, based on the clinical experience with two broad-spectrum Kv7 agonists, flupirtine and retigabine. Since precise molecular structures of human Kv7 channel subtypes in closed and open states have only very recently started to emerge, computational studies have traditionally been used to analyze binding modes and direct the development of more potent and selective Kv7 modulators with improved safety profiles. Herein, the synthetic and medicinal chemistry of small molecule modulators and the representative biological properties are summarized. Furthermore, new therapeutic applications supported by in vitro and in vivo assay data are suggested.

Abstract
Based on the potent Kv7 agonist RL-81, we prepared new lead structures with greatly improved selectivity for Kv7.2/Kv7.3 over related potassium channels, i.e., Kv7.3/Kv7.5, Kv7.4, and Kv7.4/7.5. RL-36 and RL-12 maintain an agonist EC2x of ca. 1 μM on Kv7.2/Kv7.3 in a high-throughput assay on an automated electrophysiology platform in HEK293 cells but lack activity on Kv7.3/Kv7.5, Kv7.4, and Kv7.4/7.5, resulting in a selectivity index SI > 10. RL-56 is remarkably potent, EC2x 0.11 ± 0.02 μM, and still shows an SI = 2.5. We also identified analogues with significant selectivity for Kv7.4/Kv7.5 over Kv7.2/Kv7.3. The extensive use of fluorine in iterative core structure modifications highlights the versatility of these substituents, including F, CF3, and SF5, to span orders of magnitude of potency and selectivity in medicinal chemistry lead optimizations.

Abstract
The present study focuses on identifying the degradation profile and pathways of unknown impurities from beclomethasone dipropionate (BDP) topical cream formulation reported under accelerated stability conditions. Six degradation impurities were observed during the accelerated stability testing of BDP topical cream formulation, and these thermally labile degradation impurities were primarily identified using a simple, effective and mass compatible isocratic reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography with ultraviolet detection method. The degradation impurities found in this sample were of very low concentration levels, thus the concentration of these impurities in the sample was enriched by mimicking the thermal degradation conditions to structurally elucidate the unknown impurities. These BDP thermal degradation impurities were isolated using preparative liquid chromatography and followed by pre-concentration using rota-vapour. Further, the collected thermal degradation impurities were characterized using ESI-MS, and the major impurity was identified using 1H and C13 NMR spectroscopy, and DEPT technique. Plausible degradation pathway and mechanism of each impurity from BDP has been proposed based on the obtained mass and NMR spectral data. Thus, the present method is simple and suitable to be applied towards BDP assay in various formulations, and also to investigate the thermal stability and degradation kinetics of the final drug product.

Abstract
The highly structurally similar drugs flupirtine and retigabine have been regarded as safe and effective for many years but lately they turned out to exert intolerable side effects. While the twin molecules share the mode of action, both stabilize the open state of voltage-gated potassium channels, the form and severity of adverse effects is different. The analgesic flupirtine caused drug-induced liver injury in rare but fatal cases, whereas prolonged use of the antiepileptic retigabine led to blue tissue discoloration. Because the adverse effects seem unrelated to the mode of action, it is likely, that both drugs that occupied important therapeutic niches, could be replaced. Reasons for the clinically relevant toxicity will be clarified and future substitutes for these drugs presented in this review.

Abstract
Two new, simple, selective, and highly sensitive spectrofluorimetric methods were developed and validated for the determination of the antiepileptic drug; retigabine (RTG). The first method (Method-I) depends on enhancement of the weak native fluorescence of RTG via the use of an organized medium; sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) in acetate buffer (pH 3.74). The second method (Method-II) depends on the enhancement of RTG weak native fluorescence through complexation with a macromolecule; beta cyclodextrin (β-CD) in phosphate buffer (pH 3.20). A full study of different experimental parameters influencing the fluorescence intensity was carried out. In addition, a thorough investigation of the fluorescence quantum yield, fluorophore brightness and mechanism of fluorescence enhancement was performed. A seven-fold improvement in the fluorescence intensity was brought by the first method, whereas a six and half-fold enhancement of the fluorescence intensity was obtained by the second one. Linearity was achieved over wide ranges (0.05-12.5 μg mL-1) and (0.05-15 μg mL-1) with low limits of detection (LOD) of 10.6 and 14.3 ng mL-1, and limits of quantification (LOQ) of 32.0 and 43.2 ng mL-1 for (Method-I) and (Method-II), respectively. The proposed methods were validated according to ICH and US-FDA guidelines. The applicability of the proposed methods was tested for determination of RTG in its pharmaceutical dosage forms, and to study the stability of RTG under different stress conditions according to ICH guidelines including alkaline, acidic, oxidative, thermal, and photolytic stress conditions. Moreover, the high sensitivity achieved by the proposed methods permitted the determination and detection of RTG in both spiked and real rabbit plasma samples utilizing a simple protein precipitation step followed by liquid-liquid extraction method. Percentage recoveries from rabbit plasma samples were within the acceptable limits; (93.47-104.74%) and (91.33-105.70%) for (Method-I) and (Method-II), respectively.

Abstract
Currently available pharmacotherapies for treating alcohol use disorder (AUD) suffer from deleterious side effects and are not efficacious in diverse populations. Clinical and preclinical studies provide evidence that the Kcnq family of genes that encode KV7 channels influence alcohol intake and dependence. KV7 channels are a class of slowly activating voltage-dependent K+ channels that regulate neuronal excitability. Studies indicate that the KV7 channel positive modulator retigabine can decrease dopaminergic neuron firing, alter dopamine (DA) release, and reduce alcohol intake in heavy drinking rodents. Given the critical nature of ventral tegmental area (VTA) DA to the addiction process and predominant expression of Kcnq4 in DA neurons, we investigated the role of midbrain Kcnq genes and KV7 channels in the VTA of genetically diverse mice and long-term heavy drinking rats, respectively. Integrative bioinformatics analysis identified negative correlations between midbrain Kcnq4 expression and alcohol intake and seeking behaviors. Kcnq4 expression levels were also correlated with dopaminergic-related phenotypes in BXD strains, and Kcnq4 was present in support intervals for alcohol sensitivity and alcohol withdrawal severity QTLs in rodents. Pharmacological validation studies revealed that VTA KV7 channels regulate excessive alcohol intake in rats with a high-drinking phenotype. Administration of a novel and selective KV7.2/4 channel positive modulator also reduced alcohol drinking in rats. Together, these findings indicate that midbrain Kcnq4 expression regulates alcohol-related behaviors in genetically diverse mice and provide evidence that KV7.4 channels are a critical mediator of excessive alcohol drinking.

Abstract
Given the distinctive characteristics of both epilepsy and antiepileptic drugs (AEDs), therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) can make a significant contribution to the field of epilepsy. The measurement and interpretation of serum drug concentrations can be of benefit in the treatment of uncontrollable seizures and in cases of clinical toxicity; it can aid in the individualization of therapy and in adjusting for variable or nonlinear pharmacokinetics; and can be useful in special populations such as pregnancy. This review examines the potential for TDM of newer AEDs such as eslicarbazepine acetate, felbamate, gabapentin, lacosamide, lamotrigine, levetiracetam, perampanel, pregabalin, rufinamide, retigabine, stiripentol, tiagabine, topiramate, vigabatrin, and zonisamide. We describe the relationships between serum drug concentration, clinical effect, and adverse drug reactions for each AED as well as the different analytical methods used for serum drug quantification. We discuss retrospective studies and prospective data on the serum drug concentration-efficacy of these drugs and present the pharmacokinetic parameters, oral bioavailability, reference concentration range, and active metabolites of newer AEDs. Limited data are available for recent AEDs, and we discuss the connection between drug concentrations in terms of clinical efficacy and nonresponse. Although we do not propose routine TDM, serum drug measurement can play a beneficial role in patient management and treatment individualization. Standardized studies designed to assess, in particular, concentration-efficacy-toxicity relationships for recent AEDs are urgently required.

Abstract
Vildagliptin is a member of a new class of oral anti-diabetic drug. One unknown impurity was identified in the range of 0.01-0.06% in different laboratory batches of vildagliptin along with known impurities by HPLC analysis. The structure of unknown impurity was proposed as (2S)-1-[2-[(3-hydroxyadamantan-1-yl)imino]acetyl]pyrrolidine-2-carbonitrile (Impurity-E) using LC/ESI-MS(n) study. The unknown impurity was found to be unstable in diluent (H2O:CH3CN) and degrading into another stable impurity. The degraded stable impurity was isolated from enriched reaction crude sample by semi preparative liquid chromatography. The structure of stable impurity was established using FT-IR, NMR ((1)H, (13)C and DEPT), 2D NMR (HSQC, HMBC and COSY) and mass spectral data as (8aS)-3-hydroxy-octahydropyrrolo[1,2-a]piperazine-1,4-dione (Impurity-F). Impurity identification, abnormal behaviour of impurity-E, isolation of impurity-F, fragmentation mechanism and structural elucidation were also discussed.

Abstract
In search of new leads toward potent antimicrobial agent, an array of novel derivatives of 2-hydrazinyl–N-N, diphenyl acetamide has been synthesized from the chloroacetylation reaction of diphenylamine (DPA). For this, a series of DPA derivatives were prepared by replacing chlorine with hydrazine hydrate in alcoholic medium and 2-hydrazino-N, N-diphenylacetamide was synthesized. The 2-hydrazino-N, N-diphenylacetamide was further subjected to reaction with various aromatic aldehydes in presence of glacial acetic acid in methanol. The synthesized compounds were characterized by their IR, 1HNMR spectral data and elemental analysis. The compounds were screened for antibacterial and antifungal activity by cup plate method. 2-(2-Benzylidenehydrazinyl)-N, N-diphenylacetamide (A1); 2-(2-(3-methylbenzylidene) hydrazinyl)-N, N-diphenyl-acetamide (A5) and 2-(2-(2-nitrobenzylidine) hydrazinyl)-N, N-diphenyl-acetamide compounds (A7) showed significant antimicrobial as well as antifungal activity. Diphenylamine compounds may be explored as potent antimicrobial and antifungal compounds.
