Identification of dual-target isoxazolidine-isatin hybrids with antidiabetic potential: Design, synthesis, in vitro and multiscale molecular modeling approaches. Heliyon 2024; 10:e25911. [PMID: 38380049 PMCID: PMC10877290 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e25911] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/24/2023] [Revised: 01/08/2024] [Accepted: 02/05/2024] [Indexed: 02/22/2024] Open
Abstract
In the development of novel antidiabetic agents, a novel series of isoxazolidine-isatin hybrids were designed, synthesized, and evaluated as dual α-amylase and α-glucosidase inhibitors. The precise structures of the synthesized scaffolds were characterized using different spectroscopic techniques and elemental analysis. The obtained results were compared to those of the reference drug, acarbose (IC50 = 296.6 ± 0.825 μM for α-amylase & IC50 = 780.4 ± 0.346 μM for α-glucosidase). Among the title compounds, 5d exhibited impressive α-amylase and α-glucosidase inhibitory activity with IC50 values of 30.39 ± 1.52 μM and 65.1 ± 3.11 μM, respectively, followed by 5h (IC50 = 46.65 ± 2.3 μM; IC50 = 85.16 ± 4.25 μM) and 5f (IC50 = 55.71 ± 2.78 μM; IC50 = 106.77 ± 5.31 μM). Mechanistic studies revealed that the most potent derivative 5d bearing the chloro substituent attached to the oxoindolin-3-ylidene core, and acarbose, are a competitive inhibitors of α-amylase and α-glucosidase, respectively. Structure activity relationship (SAR) was examined to guide further structural optimization of the most appropriate substituent(s). Moreover, drug-likeness qualities and ADMET prediction of the most active analogue, 5d was also performed. Subsequently, 5d was subjected to molecular docking and dynamic simulation during the progression of 120 ns analysis to check the essential ligand-receptor patterns, and to estimate its stability. In silico studies were found in good agreement with the in vitro enzymatic inhibitions results. In conclusion, we demonstrated that most potent compound 5d could be exploited as dual potential inhibitor of α-amylase and α-glucosidase for possible management of diabetes.

Anticancer and Antiphytopathogenic Activity of Fluorinated Isatins and Their Water-Soluble Hydrazone Derivatives. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:15119.

Abstract
A series of new fluorinated 1-benzylisatins was synthesized in high yields via a simple one-pot procedure in order to explore the possible effect of ortho-fluoro (3a), chloro (3b), or bis-fluoro (3d) substitution on the biological activity of this pharmacophore. Furthermore, the new isatins could be converted into water-soluble isatin-3-hydrazones using their acid-catalyzed reaction with Girard's reagent P and its dimethyl analog. The cytotoxic action of these substances is associated with the induction of apoptosis caused by mitochondrial membrane dissipation and stimulated reactive oxygen species production in tumor cells. In addition, compounds 3a and 3b exhibit platelet antiaggregation activity at the level of acetylsalicylic acid, and the whole series of fluorine-containing isatins does not adversely affect the hemostasis system as a whole. Among the new water-soluble pyridinium isatin-3-acylhydrazones, compounds 7c and 5c,e exhibit the highest antagonistic effect against phytopathogens of bacterial and fungal origin and can be considered useful leads for combating plant diseases.

Abstract
Artemisinin is a natural compound extracted from Artemisia species belonging to the Asteraceae family. Currently, artemisinin and its derivatives are considered among the most significant small-molecule antimalarial drugs. Artemisinin and its derivatives have also been shown to possess selective anticancer properties, however, there are several limitations and gaps in knowledge that retard their repurposing as effective anticancer agents. Hybridization resulting from a covalent combination of artemisinin with one or more active pharmacophores has emerged as a promising approach to overcome several issues. The variety of hybridization partners allows improvement in artemisinin activity by tuning the ability of conjugated artemisinin to interact with various molecule targets involved in multiple biological pathways. This review highlights the current scenario of artemisinin-derived hybrids with potential anticancer activity. The synthetic approaches to achieve the corresponding hybrids and the structure-activity relationships are discussed to facilitate further rational design of more effective candidates.

Abstract
This work reports on the antibacterial activity of two tetrandrine derivatives, with acridine (MAcT) and anthracene (MAnT) units, against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria of clinical importance by the broth microdilution method as well as their antioxidant activity against ABTS•+ and DPPH•+ radicals. Unlike natural tetrandrine, its derivatives inhibited bacterial growth, showing selectivity against Staphylococcus aureus with notable activity of MAnT (MIC = 0.035 μg/mL); this compound also has good activity against the ABTS•+ radical (IC50 = 4.59 μg/mL). Cell membrane integrity studies and reactive oxygen species (ROS) detection by fluorescent stains helped to understand possible mechanisms related to antibacterial activity, while electrophoretic mobility assays showed that the derivatives can bind to bacterial DNA plasmid. The results indicate that MAnT can induce a general state of oxidative stress in S. aureus and Escherichia coli, while MAcT induces an oxidative response in S. aureus. Complementary electrochemical studies were included.

Abstract
A series of 12 compounds was designed and synthesized, based on 2-mercaptobenzoxazole derivatives containing either the substituted benzenes 4a-d, substituted isatins 5a-f, or heterocycles 6a-b. The in vitro antiproliferative activity of the compounds was evaluated against hepatocellular carcinoma (HepG2), mammary gland cancer (MCF-7), breast cancer (MDA-MB-231), and the epithelioid cervix carcinoma (HeLa) cancer cell lines. Compounds 4b, 4d, 5d, and 6b had the most potent antiproliferative activity, with IC50 values ranging from 2.14 to 19.34 µM, compared to the reference drugs, doxorubicin and sunitinib. Compound 6b revealed a remarkably broad antitumor activity pattern against HepG2 (IC50 6.83 µM), MCF-7 (IC50 3.64 µM), MDA-MB-231 (IC50 2.14 µM), and HeLa (IC50 5.18 µM). In addition, compound 6b showed potent inhibitory activities against EGFR, HER2, VEGFR2, and the CDK2 protein kinase enzymes, with IC50 values of 0.279, 0.224, 0.565, and 0.886 µM, respectively. Moreover, compound 6b induced caspase-dependent apoptosis and cell cycle arrest at the G2/M phase. Finally, a molecular docking simulation was performed for compound 6b to predict the potential ligand-protein interactions with the active sites of the EGFR, HER2, and VEGFR2 proteins.

Abstract
Tumors are still one of the main causes of death; therefore, the search for new therapeutic agents that will enable the implementation of effective treatment is a significant challenge for modern pharmacy. One of the important factors contributing to the development of neoplastic diseases is the overexpression of enzymes responsible for the regulation of cell division processes such as cyclin-dependent kinases. Numerous studies and examples of already-developed drugs confirm that isatin is a convenient basis for the development of new groups of inhibitors for this class of enzyme. Therefore, in this work, a new group of potential inhibitors of the CDK2 enzyme, utilizing isatin derivatives and substituted benzoylhydrazines, has been designed based on the application of computational chemistry methods, such as docking and molecular dynamics, and their inhibiting ability was assessed. In the cases of the selected compounds, a synthesis method was developed, and the selected physicochemical properties of the newly synthesized derivatives were estimated. As part of the completed project, new compounds are developed which are potential inhibitors of the CDK2 enzyme.

Abstract
Monoamine oxidase (MAO) is a protein with a key function in the catabolism of neuroamines in both central and peripheral parts of the body. MAO-A and -B are two isozymes of this enzyme which have emerged to be considered as a drug target for the treatment of neurodenerative disorders such as Alzheimer's disease (AD) and Parkinson's disease (PD). Isatin is an endogenous small fragment, reversible inhibitor for MAO enzymes and is more selective for MAO-B than -A. Isatin is responsible for increasing the dopamine level in the brain by the inhibition of an MAO enzyme. The very few selective and reversible inhibitors existing for MAO proteins and the intensity of neurological diseases in humanity have opened a new door for researchers. Isatin has a polypharmacological profile in medicinal chemistry, is a reversible inhibitor for both the MAOs, and shows high selectivity potent inhibition for MAO-B. In this review, we discuss isatins and their analogues phthalide and phthalimide with structure-activity relationships (SARs), and this comprehensive information accelerates the ideas for design and development of a new class of MAO inhibitors for neurodegenerative diseases.

Abstract
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) represents around 85% of all known types of liver cancers and is estimated to be the fifth most common cause of cancer-related death worldwide. The current study assessed the preventive efficacy of isatin on diethylnitrosamine (DENA)/2-acetylaminofluorene (2-AAF)-induced hepatocarcinogenesis in male Wistar rats and investigated the underlying cellular and molecular mechanisms. HCC was initiated by intraperitoneal injection of DENA (150 mg/kg/week) for two weeks, followed by oral 2-AAF (20 mg/kg) every other day for three successive weeks. Oral isatin or vehicle (control) was administered at 25 mg/kg for 20 weeks during and following HCC induction. Isatin ameliorated the deleterious effects of DENA/2-AAF on liver function as evidenced by reduced serum levels of AST, ALT, total bilirubin, albumin, and liver tumor biomarkers (CA19.9 and AFP) compared to control DENA/2-AAF-treated rats. Histopathological evaluations demonstrated that isatin-mediated protection against hepatocarcinogenesis was accompanied by a decline in hepatic lipid peroxidation, a marker of oxidative stress, and enhanced antioxidant capacity, as evidenced by increased glutathione and superoxide dismutase expression. Isatin treatment also upregulated expression of the major stress-response transcription factor Nrf2 and the detoxifying enzymes NAD(P)H quinine oxidoreductase and glutathione-S-transferase alpha 2 and downregulated expression of the proliferation marker Ki67. Moreover, isatin significantly reduced the DENA/2-AAF-induced decrease in hepatic expression of anti-apoptotic Bcl2 and the DENA/2-AAF-induced increases in pro-inflammatory and pro-apoptotic factors (TNF-α, NF-κB p50, NF-κB p65, p53, and caspase 3). Thus, it can be concluded that isatin may protect against chemically induced hepatocarcinogenesis by enhancing cellular antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and detoxification mechanisms, in part through upregulation of the Nrf2 signaling pathway.

Abstract
Selected salicylidene imines were evaluated for their antioxidant and cytotoxic potentials. Several of them exerted potent scavenging capacity towards ABTS radical and hydrogen peroxide. The insight into the preferable antioxidative mechanism was reached employing density functional theory. In the absence of free radicals, the SPLET mechanism is dominant in polar surroundings, while HAT is prevailing in a non-polar environment. The results obtained for the reactions of the most active compounds with some medically relevant radicals pointed out competition between HAT and SPLET mechanisms. The assessment of their cytotoxic properties revealed inhibition of ER-a human breast adenocarcinoma cells or estrogen-independent prostate cancer cells. Molecular docking study with the cyclooxygenase (COX) 2 enzyme was performed to examine the most probable bioactive conformations and possible interactions between the tested derivatives and COX-2 binding pocket.

Abstract
Managing diabetes that is a global life-threatening problem, remains a challenge for the scientific community. The inhibition of α-amylase and α-glucosidase enzymes which are responsible for the digestion of dietary carbohydrates is an effective strategy to control postprandial hyperglycemia. Herein, we report the novel and highly potent inhibitors of α-amylase and α-glucosidase, namely isatin-hydrazide conjugates 1a - 1j that are easily accessed in two steps from simple and inexpensive commercially available isatin. The in vitro bio-evaluations of these compounds revealed that conjugates 1a, 1h and 1f are highly potent inhibitors of α-amylase with IC50 values of 19.6, 12.1 and 18.3 µg/ml, respectively as compared to the standard, acarbose (IC50 = 36.2 µg/ml). Similarly, the conjugates 1a, 1b, 1d, 1f and 1i showed significant activity against α-glucosidase with IC50 values of 14.8, 25.6, 13.2, 14.5 and 16.5 µg/ml, respectively as compared to the acarbose (IC50 = 34.5 µg/ml). Notably, the compounds 1a and 1f were found to be highly potent against both α-amylase and α-glucosidase enzymes, demonstrating about two-fold better inhibitory activity than the reference inhibitor. Molecular docking studies were performed to recognize the possible binding modes of the compounds with the active pocket of the enzymes. The results of this study divulge the potential of these compounds as powerful and inexpensive lead molecules for future investigations.

Abstract
Isatin (1H-indole-2,3-dione)-containing compounds have been shown to possess several remarkable biological activities. We had previously explored a few isatin-based imidazole derivatives for their predicted dual activity against both inflammation and cancer. We explored 47 different isatin-based derivatives (IBDs) for other potential biological activities using in silico tools and found them to possess anti-viral activity. Using AutoDock tools, the binding site, binding energy, inhibitory constant/Ki and receptor-ligand interactions for each of the compounds were analyzed against SARS-CoV-2 RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp). The partition coefficient (logP) values were predicted using MedChem Designer tool. Based on the best Ki, binding energy and the ideal range of logP (between 1.0 and 3.0), 10 out of total 47 compounds were deemed to be prospective RdRp inhibitors. Some of these compounds gave better Ki, binding energy and logP values when compared to standard RdRp inhibitors, such as remdesivir (REM) (Ki = 15.61 μM, logP = 2.2; binding energy = -6.95), a clinically approved RdRp inhibitor and nine other RdRp inhibitors. The results showed that the 10 selected IBDs could be further explored. Molecular dynamics simulations (MDSs) showed that the selected RdRp-IBD complexes were highly stable compared to the native RdRp and RdRp-REM complex during 100 ns time periods. DFT studies were performed for the compounds 16a, 24a, 28a, 38a and 40a, to evaluate the charge transfer mechanism for the interactions between the IBDs and the RdRp residues. Among these, ADME profiling revealed that 28a is a possible lead compound which can be explored further for anti-RdRp activity in vitro. Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.

Abstract
In this review we compare and discuss results of compounds already reported as anticancer agents based on isatin-derivatives, metalated as well as non-metallated. Isatin compounds can be obtained from plants, marine animals, and is also found in human fluids as a metabolite of amino acids. Its derivatives include imines, hydrazones, thiosemicarbazones, among others, already focused on numerous anticancer studies. Some of them have entered in pre-clinical and clinical tests as antiangiogenic compounds or inhibitors of crucial proteins. As free ligands or coordinated to metal ions, such isatin derivatives showed promising antiproliferative properties against different cancer cells, targeting different biomolecules or organelles. Binding to metal ions usually improves its biological properties, indicating a modulation by the metal and by the ligand in a synergistic process. They also reveal diverse mechanisms of action, being able of binding DNA, generating reactive species that cause oxidative damage, and inhibiting selected proteins. Strategies used to improve the efficiency and selectivity of these compounds comprise structural modification of the ligands, metalation with different ions, syntheses of mononuclear and dinuclear species, and use of inserted or anchored compounds in selected drug delivery systems.

Abstract
The intercalation DNA binding mode of the naproxen, a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug, has been reported previously. In this study, calf thymus deoxyribonucleic acid (CT-DNA) binding of zinc-naproxen complex, [Zn(naproxen)2(MeOH)2], at physiological pH has been investigated by multi-spectroscopic techniques and molecular docking. Zinc-naproxen complex displays significant binding property to the CT-DNA (Kb = 0.2 × 105 L.mol-1). All of the experimental results; relative increasing in viscosity of CT-DNA and fluorimetric studies using ethidium bromide (EB) and Hoechst 33258 probes, are indicative of groove binding mode of zinc-naproxen complex to CT-DNA. These results show that the coordination of naproxen to zinc metal switches the mode of binding from intercalation to groove. The molecular modeling also shows that the complex binds to the AT-rich region of minor groove of DNA. Structural and topography changes of DNA in interaction with the complex by atomic force microscopy (AFM) indicated that CT-DNA becomes swollen after interaction. The pUC18 plasmid DNA cleavage ability of zinc-naproxen complex by gel electrophoresis experiments revealed that zinc-naproxen complex cleaved supercoiled pUC18 plasmid DNA to nicked DNA. The cytotoxicity of the zinc complex performed by MTT method on HT29 and MCF7 cancer cell lines and on HEK 293 normal cell lines indicates that zinc complex has no cytotoxic effect on both HT29 and MCF7 cell lines but has better cytotoxicity effect on HEK 293 cell lines compared to cisplatin standard drug. The antimicrobial activity of the complex against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli bacteria revealed the high antimicrobial activity of the complex.Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.

Abstract
A series of Schiff bases 3, 5, 7 and hydrazones 9 were achieved via reaction of 5-(morpholinosulfonyl)indol-2,3-dione (1) with appropriate amines and/or hydrazide derivatives. Representative compounds of the synthesized products were tested and evaluated as antimicrobial agents. According to MIC and MBC results from compounds 9a, 9c, 7a, 3b, 3c, and 5b were able to exhibit significant antibacterial activity against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria together with moderate antifungal activities. Also, a multi-drug resistance study (MDRS) was carried out to evaluate the activity of most potent compounds, and these compounds showed considerable results compared with Norfloxacin and Tetracycline which observed no results against strains used in this study. The inhibitory activity of most potent compounds (3b, 3c, 5b, 7a, 9a, and 9c) against DNA gyrase isolated from S. aureus was examined. The results indicated that all of these derivatives inhibiting DNA gyrase and therefore lead to separate bacterial DNA and inhibit cell division. Compounds 3b, 9c showed to be very potent inhibitors towards S. aureus DNA gyrase with IC50 values (18.75 ± 1.2 and 19.32 ± 0.99 µM) respectively, compared with Ciprofloxacin (26.43 ± 0.64 µM). Molecular docking studies indicated that the synthesized compounds observed good binding with the enzyme and showed lower binding energy of the most promising compounds than a standard drug used, and enabled a better understanding of their structural features.

Abstract
Eight novel Schiff bases derived from benzil dihydrazone (BDH) or benzil monohydrazone (BMH) and four fused-ring carbonyl compounds (3-formylindole, FI; 3-acetylindole, AI; 3-formyl-1-methylindole, MFI; 1-formylnaphthalene, FN) were synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, ESI-QTOF-MS, 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy, as well as single-crystal X-ray diffraction. They are (1Z,2Z)-1,2-bis{(E)-[(1H-indol-3-yl)methylidene]hydrazinylidene}-1,2-diphenylethane (BDHFI), C32H24N6, (1Z,2Z)-1,2-bis{(E)-[1-(1H-indol-3-yl)ethylidene]hydrazinylidene}-1,2-diphenylethane (BDHAI), C34H28N6, (1Z,2Z)-1,2-bis{(E)-[(1-methyl-1H-indol-3-yl)methylidene]hydrazinylidene}-1,2-diphenylethane (BMHMFI) acetonitrile hemisolvate, C34H28N6·0.5CH3CN, (1Z,2Z)-1,2-bis{(E)-[(naphthalen-1-yl)methylidene]hydrazinylidene}-1,2-diphenylethane (BDHFN), C36H26N4, (Z)-2-{(E)-[(1H-indol-3-yl)methylidene]hydrazinylidene}-1,2-diphenylethanone (BMHFI), C23H17N3O, (Z)-2-{(E)-[1-(1H-indol-3-yl)ethylidene]hydrazinylidene}-1,2-diphenylethanone (BMHAI), C24H19N3O, (Z)-2-{(E)-[(1-methyl-1H-indol-3-yl)methylidene]hydrazinylidene}-1,2-diphenylethanone (BMHMFI), C24H19N3O, and (Z)-2-{(E)-[(naphthalen-1-yl)methylidene]hydrazinylidene}-1,2-diphenylethanone (BMHFN) C25H18N2O. Moreover, the in vitro cytotoxicity of the eight title compounds was evaluated against two tumour cell lines (A549 human lung cancer and 4T1 mouse breast cancer) and two normal cell lines (MRC-5 normal lung cells and NIH 3T3 fibroblasts) by MTT assay. The results indicate that four (BDHMFI, BDHFN, BMHMFI and BMHFN) are inactive and the other four (BDHFI, BDHAI, BMHFI and BMHAI) show severe toxicities against human A549 and mouse 4T1 cells, similar to the standard cisplatin. All the compounds exhibited weaker cytotoxicity against normal cells than cancer cells. The Swiss Target Prediction web server was applied for the prediction of protein targets. After analyzing the differences in frequency hits between these active and inactive Schiff bases, 18 probable targets were selected for reverse docking with the Surflex-dock function in SYBYL-X 2.0 software. Three target proteins, i.e. human ether-á-go-go-related (hERG) potassium channel, the inhibitor of apoptosis protein 3 and serine/threonine-protein kinase PIM1, were chosen as the targets. Finally, the ligand-based structure-activity relationships were analyzed based on the putative protein target (hERG) docking results, which will be used to design and synthesize novel hERG ion channel inhibitors.

Abstract
Novel Schiff bases (SBs) were synthesized by condensation of 2-(1-Amino benzyl) benzimidazole with heterocyclic and aromatic carbonyl compounds. The structural characterization was done using 1H, 13C NMR, FTIR and ES-MS spectroscopic techniques. The in silico pharmacokinetics showed that nearly all compounds obeyed Lipinski rule of 5 with low toxicity and metabolic stability. The global reactivity descriptors were calculated using DFT approach. The molecular docking result of SBs with ct-DNA suggested interaction via groove binding mode. The antibacterial activity was tested against S. aureus and E. coli, indicated significant inhibition than reference drug. The compound 4d gave best results at 50 μg ml-1 concentrations. UV/Vis and Fluorescence spectroscopy tools were used to evaluate ct-DNA binding ability of compounds 4a-e through hypochromic shift. The steady state fluorescence predicted a moderate binding constant of 1.12 × 104 for 4d, indicative of non-intercalative mode.

Abstract
Dapsone is a sulfone drug mainly used as anti-microbial and anti-inflammatory agent for the treatment of various diseases including leprosy. Recently, its interaction with protein (bovine serum albumin) is evidenced. But, the binding propensity of this anti-mycobacterial drug towards DNA is still unknown. Also, the mode of dapsone-DNA interaction (if any) is still an unknown quantity. In this study, we have taken a thorough attempt to understand these two unknown aspects using various biophysical and in silico molecular docking techniques. Both UV-visible and fluorescence titrimetric studies indicated that dapsone binds to CT-DNA with a binding constant in order of 104 M-1. Circular dichroism, thermal denaturation and viscosity experiments revealed that dapsone binds to the grooves of CT-DNA. Competitive DNA binding studies clearly indicated the minor groove binding property of this anti-mycobacterial drug. Molecular docking provided detailed information about the formation of hydrogen bonding in the dapsone-DNA complex. This in silico study further revealed that dapsone binds to the AT-rich region of the minor groove of DNA having a relative binding energy of -6.22 kcal mol-1. Overall, all these findings evolved from this study can be used for better understanding the medicinal importance of dapsone.

Abstract
Isatin (1H-indole-2,3-dione) and its derivatives represent an important class of heterocyclic compounds that can be used as precursors for drug synthesis. Since its discovery, a lot of research work has been done regarding the synthesis, chemical properties, and biological and industrial applications of isatin. In this review, we have reported several novel methods for the synthesis of N-, C2-, and C3-substituted and spiro derivatives of isatin. The isatin moiety also shows important chemical reactions such as oxidation, ring expansion, Friedel-Crafts reaction and aldol condensation. These reactions, in turn, produce several biologically viable compounds like 2-oxindoles, tryptanthrin, indirubins, and many more. We have also summarized some recently reported biological activities exhibited by isatin derivatives, like anti-cancer, anti-bacterial, anti-diabetic and others. Special attention has been paid to their anti-cancer activity, and various anti-cancer targets such as histone deacetylase, carbonic anhydrase, tyrosine kinase, and tubulin have been discussed in detail. Other applications of isatin derivatives, such as in the dye industry and in corrosion prevention, have also been discussed.
