Molecular hybridization, synthesis, in vitro α-glucosidase inhibition, in vivo antidiabetic activity and computational studies of isatin based compounds. Bioorg Chem 2024; 153:107783. [PMID: 39255610 DOI: 10.1016/j.bioorg.2024.107783] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/18/2024] [Revised: 08/29/2024] [Accepted: 08/30/2024] [Indexed: 09/12/2024]
Abstract
In the pursuit of novel antidiabetic agents, a series of isatin-thiazole derivatives (7a-7j) were synthesized and characterized using a range of spectroscopic techniques. The enzyme inhibitory activities of the target analogues were assessed using both in vitro and in vivo assays. The tested compounds 7a-7j demonstrated In vitro inhibitory potential against α-glucosidase, as indicated by their IC50 values ranging from 28.47 to 46.61 µg/ml as compared to standard drug acarbose IC50 value of 27.22 ± 2.30 µg/ml. Additionally, compounds 7d and 7i were chosen for in vivo evaluation of their antidiabetic efficacy in streptozotocin-induced diabetic Wistar rats. These compounds exhibited significant antidiabetic activity both in vitro and in vivo, compound 7d produces therapeutic effects compared to standard pioglitazone by decreasing glycaemia and triglyceride levels in diabetic animals. Furthermore, a molecular docking study was conducted to elucidate the binding interactions of the compounds within the α-glucosidase enzyme binding pocket (PDB ID 3A47) and stability was confirmed by dynamics simulation trajectories. Thus, from the above findings, it may demonstrate that isatin-thiazole hybrids constitute promising candidates in the pursuit of developing newer oral antidiabetic agents.

Bioorg Chem 2024; 153:107766. [PMID: 39244969 DOI: 10.1016/j.bioorg.2024.107766] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/13/2024] [Revised: 07/29/2024] [Accepted: 08/26/2024] [Indexed: 09/10/2024]
Abstract
LSM-83177, a phenoxy acetic acid derivative, is a small molecule reported for its promising anti-tumor properties. Via inhibiting the interaction between MDM2 and p53, LSM-83177 can elevate the active p53 levels within cells, thereby promoting apoptosis and inhibiting tumor growth. Also, LSM-83177 has been shown to inhibit GST activity in colorectal cancer HT29 cells. In the current work, novel LSM-83177 hydrazone analogs 5a-f, 7a-b, 10a-e, and 13a-b have been designed according to the structure features of LSM-83177 and their binding mode in the active site of MDM2. The anti-cancer activity of the newly synthesized analogs is evaluated against the HT29 cell line. The most potent compounds, 7a and 10a, showed IC50 = 12.48 and 10.44 µg/ml, respectively, when compared with Cisplatin (IC50 = 11.32 µg/ml) as a reference drug. Compounds 7a and 10a were introduced for further inspection for p53-MDM2 protein-protein interaction, where they displayed IC50 values of 3.65 and 11.08 µg/ml, respectively. Furthermore, hydrazones 7a and 10a increased the p-53 expression levels by 3.22- and 4.25-fold, respectively; in addition, they effectively reduced the GST expression levels in HT29 cancer cells with 0.56- and 0.30-fold increments in comparison to the untreated control.

One-Pot Access to Functionalised Malamides via Organocatalytic Enantioselective Formation of Spirocyclic β-Lactone-Oxindoles and Double Ring-Opening. Molecules 2024; 29:3635. [PMID: 39125040 PMCID: PMC11313722 DOI: 10.3390/molecules29153635] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/28/2024] [Revised: 07/29/2024] [Accepted: 07/29/2024] [Indexed: 08/12/2024] Open
Abstract
Malamides (diamide derivatives of malic acid) are prevalent in nature and of significant biological interest, yet only limited synthetic methods to access functionalised enantiopure derivatives have been established to date. Herein, an effective synthetic method to generate this molecular class is developed through in situ formation of spirocyclic β-lactone-oxindoles (employing a known enantioselective isothiourea-catalysed formal [2+2] cycloaddition of C(1)-ammonium enolates and isatin derivatives) followed by a subsequent dual ring-opening protocol (of the β-lactone and oxindole) with amine nucleophiles. The application of this protocol is demonstrated across twelve examples to give densely functionalised malamide derivatives with high enantio- and diastereo-selectivity (up to >95:5 dr and >99:1 er).

Abstract
In this study, we investigated the in vitro antiproliferative activities and performed computational studies of newly synthesized fluorinated isatin-hydrazones. The chemical structures of the synthesized compounds were confirmed by FT-IR, 1D NMR (1H- and 13C NMR and APT), 2D NMR (HETCOR and HMBC), and elemental analysis. All compounds (1-15) were tested in human lung (A549) and liver (HepG2) cancer cell lines for 72 h. The compounds were screened against a healthy embryonic kidney cell line (HEK-293T) under the same conditions to determine their toxic effects. According to the results obtained, one of the compounds, in particular, compound 8 was effective at inhibiting the growth of cancerous cells, and its effects on both cancer cell lines were similar to IC50 values of 42.43 and 48.43 μM for A549 and HepG2, respectively. Compound 8, which was determined to be the best anticancer agent in vitro, was chosen to interact with the target via molecular docking. This selected ligand (compound 8) interacted with the targets 4HJO, 4ASD, 3POZ, and 7TZ7, and docked into the active sites. The docking score, Glide energy, and Glide emodel values were calculated and determined to be lower than those of the reference compound cisplatin. The pharmacokinetic properties, stability, and drug-likeness parameters of all designed compounds were estimated using SwissADME. Finally, the binding affinities of compound 8 for all four targets were calculated using the MM-GBSA method.

Abstract
The emergence of diverse infections worldwide, which is a serious global threat to human existence, necessitates the urgent development of novel therapeutic candidates that can combat these diseases with efficacy. Molecular hybridization has been established as an efficient technique in designing bioactive molecules capable of fighting infections. Isatin, a core nucleus of an array of compounds with diverse biological properties can be modified at different positions leading to the creation of novel drug targets, is an active area of medicinal chemistry. This review containing published articles from 2005 to 2022 highlights isatin hybrids which have been synthesized and reported in the literature alongside a discussion on their biological properties. The enriched structure-activity relationship studies discussed provides insights for the rational design of novel isatin hybrids with tailored biological properties as effective therapeutic candidates inspired by nature.

Abstract
Isatin derivatives have attracted a lot of interest for their potential in the development of new anticancer drugs. A library of 38 isatin derivatives, created through an Ugi four-component reaction, underwent an initial screening in a panel of six human solid tumor cell lines. The four most active derivatives were then selected for further testing. These compounds showed selectivity towards the non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cell line SW1573, whilst NSCLC A549 cells were barely affected. The combination of phenotypic assays, including wound healing, clonogenic and continuous live cell imaging provided a deeper understanding of the compounds' mode of action. In particular, the latter demonstrated that isatin derivatives were able to induce necroptosis in SW1573 cells. The kinetics of cell death showed that necroptosis appeared after 2.5 h of exposure, which could be delayed to 7 h when co-treated with necrostatin-1. Interaction between the isatin derivatives and the KRAS G12C protein variant was discarded after in silico studies. Further studies are warranted to identify the cellular target responsible for the observed selectivity among cell lines.

Abstract
Background and purpose Isatin derivatives have excited attention due to their biological attractions, especially, anticancer properties. Isatin analogs such as semaxanib and sunitinib were exposed to tyrosine kinase inhibitory properties. N-substituted isatins were reported to show cytotoxic activity. On the other, the extension of impressive and cost-effective agents against leishmaniasis is necessary in third-world countries. The capability of isatin derivatives to create novel anticancer and anti-leishmanial compounds has been identified in medicinal chemistry research. The current study aimed to synthesize N-alkyl-isatin-3-imino aromatic amine compounds and evaluate their biological effects. Experimental approach Synthesis started with the formation of 2-chloro-N-phenylacetamide derivatives by the reaction of aniline derivatives with chloroacetyl chloride. N-alkylation of isatin was performed in the presence of K2CO3 in N, N-dimethylformamide. Final products were prepared via the condensation of N-alkyl isatin derivatives with aromatic amines. Cell viability was checked out by using the MTT assay against cancer cells. Final compounds were screened for anti-leishmanial activity. The molecules were docked in the active sites of the epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase to define the possible interactions. Findings/Results Compounds 5c and 4d with IC50 value of 50 μΜ showed cytotoxic activity on the MCF-7 cell line. Compound 5b presented anti-leishmanial activity against promastigote form after 48 h (IC50:59 μΜ) and 72 h (IC50: 41 μΜ) incubations. The highest docking score was -7.33 kcal/mol for compound 4d. Conclusions and implications The nature of substitution in the N1 region of isatin seems to be able to influence the cytotoxic activity. Based on the obtained results of docking and cytotoxic tests, compound 4d seems to be a good compound for further investigations.

Abstract
CONTEXT A comparative study of the change in different properties of electronic and structural of the free 1H-indole-2,3-dione molecule and its complexes has been obtained. HOMA analysis was performed to investigate the effects of lithium sodium and potassium cations on the aromaticity of lithium sodium and potassium complexes of 1H-indole-2,3-dione. METHODS Several 1H-indole-2,3-dione complexes with lithium, sodium, and potassium cations were optimized at the B3LYP/6-311G(d,p) level. The cation and π interaction has been investigated from different aspects, including interaction energy calculations, charge transfer values, and changes in the aromaticity of the ring upon complexation. The charge transfer and natural population analysis for the complexes were performed with the natural bond orbital (NBO) analysis. The properties of bond critical points in complexes were studied by applying the quantum theory of atoms in molecules (QTAIM). Finally, the aromaticity change of phenyl induced upon complex formation was evaluated by applying the harmonic oscillator model of aromaticity (HOMA). [Li-INa]+ and [[Li-INb]+ were optimized with the wB97XD function using a version of Grimme's D2 dispersion model, and the absorption energy was compared with the calculation made with the B3LYP functional.

Abstract
Isatin (indol-2,3-dione), a secondary metabolite of tryptophan, has been used as the core structure to design several compounds that have been tested and identified as potent inhibitors of apoptosis, potential antitumor agents, anticonvulsants, and antiviral agents. In this work, several analogs of isatin hybrids have been synthesized and characterized, and their activities were established as inhibitors of both Aurora A kinase and severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) spike/host angiotensin-converting enzyme II (ACE2) interactions. Amongst the synthesized isatin hybrids, compounds 6a, 6f, 6g, and 6m exhibited Aurora A kinase inhibitory activities (with IC50 values < 5 μ M), with GScore values of -7.9, -7.6, -8.2 and -7.7 kcal/mol, respectively. Compounds 6g and 6i showed activities in blocking SARS-CoV-2 spike/ACE2 binding (with IC50 values in the range < 30 μ M), with GScore values of -6.4 and -6.6 kcal/mol, respectively. Compounds 6f, 6g, and 6i were both capable of inhibiting spike/ACE2 binding and blocking Aurora A kinase. Pharmacophore profiling indicated that compound 6g tightly fits Aurora A kinase and SARS-CoV-2 pharmacophores, while 6d fits SARS-CoV-2 and 6l fits Aurora A kinase pharmacophore. This work is a proof of concept that some existing cancer drugs may possess antiviral properties. Molecular modeling showed that the active compound for each protein adopted different binding modes, hence interacting with a different set of amino acid residues in the binding site. The weaker activities against spike/ACE2 could be explained by the small sizes of the ligands that fail to address the important interactions for binding to the ACE2 receptor site.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cancer is a disease characterized by the abnormal multiplication of cells and is the second leading cause of death in the world. The search for new effective and safe anticancer compounds is ongoing due to factors such as low selectivity, high toxicity, and multidrug resistance. Thus, heterocyclic compounds derived from isatin, thiazole and phthalimide that have achieved promising in vitro anticancer activity have been tested in vivo and in clinical trials. OBJECTIVE This review focused on the compilation of promising data from thiazole, isatin, and phthalimide derivatives, reported in the literature between 2015 and 2022, with in vivo anticancer activity and clinical trials. METHODS A bibliographic search was carried out in the PUBMED, MEDLINE, ELSEVIER, and CAPES PERIODIC databases, selecting relevant works for each pharmacophoric group with in vivo antitumor activity in the last 6 years. RESULTS In our study, 68 articles that fit the scope were selected and critically analyzed. These articles were organized considering the type of antitumor activity and their year of publication. Some compounds reported here demonstrated potent antitumor activity against several tumor types. CONCLUSION This review allowed us to highlight works that reported promising structures for the treatment of various cancer types and also demonstrated that the privileged structures thiazole, isatin and phthalimide are important in the design of new syntheses and molecular optimization of compounds with antitumor activity.

Isatin-based benzyloxybenzene derivatives as monoamine oxidase inhibitors with neuroprotective effect targeting neurogenerative disease treatment. RSC Adv 2023; 13:35240-35250. [PMID: 38053684 PMCID: PMC10694828 DOI: 10.1039/d3ra07035b] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/16/2023] [Accepted: 11/26/2023] [Indexed: 12/07/2023] Open
Abstract
Eighteen isatin-based benzyloxybenzaldehyde derivatives from three subseries, ISB, ISFB, and ISBB, were synthesized and their ability to inhibit monoamine oxidase (MAO) was evaluated. The inhibitory activity of all synthesized compounds was found to be more profound against MAO-B than MAO-A. Compound ISB1 most potently inhibited MAO-B with an IC50 of 0.124 ± 0.007 μM, ensued by ISFB1 (IC50 = 0.135 ± 0.002 μM). Compound ISFB1 most potently inhibited MAO-A with an IC50 of 0.678 ± 0.006 μM, ensued by ISBB3 (IC50 = 0.731 ± 0.028 μM), and had the highest selectivity index (SI) value (55.03). The three sub-parental compounds, ISB1, ISFB1, and ISBB1, had higher MAO-B inhibition than the other derivatives, indicating that the substitutions of the 5-H in the A-ring of isatin diminished the inhibition of MAO-A and MAO-B. Among these, ISB1 (para-benzyloxy group in the B-ring) displayed more significant MAO-B inhibition when compared to ISBB1 (meta-benzyloxy group in the B-ring). ISB1 and ISFB1 were identified to be competitive and reversible MAO-B inhibitors, having Ki values of 0.055 ± 0.010, and 0.069 ± 0.025 μM, respectively. Furthermore, in the parallel artificial membrane penetration assay, ISB1 and ISFB1 traversed the blood-brain barrier in the in vitro condition. Additionally, the current study found that ISB1 decreased rotenone-induced cell death in SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells. In docking and simulation studies, the hydrogen bonding formed by the imino nitrogen in ISB1 and the pi-pi stacking interaction of the phenyl ring in isatin significantly aided in the protein-ligand complex's stability, effectively inhibiting MAO-B. According to these observations, the MAO-B inhibitors ISB1 and ISFB1 were potent, selective, and reversible, making them conceivable therapies for neurological diseases.

Abstract
In the title compound, C20H28BrNO2, the indoline portion is almost planar and the 12-bromo-dodecyl chain adopts an all-trans conformation apart from the gauche terminal C-C-C-Br fragment. A micellar-like structure is generated in the crystal by C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds and π-stacking inter-actions between indolinedione head groups and inter-calation of the 12-bromo-dodecyl tails. The Hirshfeld surface analysis of the crystal structure indicates that the most important contributions for the crystal packing are from H⋯H (58.9%), H⋯O/O⋯H (17.9%) and H⋯Br/Br⋯H (9.5%) contacts. A density functional theory (DFT) optimized structure at the B3LYP/ 6-311 G(d,p) level shows good agreement with the experimentally determined mol-ecular structure in the solid state.

Abstract
Monoamine oxidase (MAO, EC 1.4.3.4) is responsible for the oxidative breakdown of both endogenous and exogenous amines and exists in MAO-A and MAO-B isomers. Eighteen indole-based phenylallylidene derivatives were synthesized via nucleophilic addition reactions comprising three sub-series, IHC, IHMC, and IHNC, and were developed and examined for their ability to inhibit MAO. Among them, compound IHC3 showed a strong MAO-B inhibitory effect with an IC50 (half-maximal inhibitory concentration) value of 1.672 μM, followed by IHC2 (IC50 = 16.934 μM). Additionally, IHC3 showed the highest selectivity index (SI) value of >23.92. The effectiveness of IHC3 was lower than the reference pargyline (0.14 μM); however, the SI value was higher than pargyline (17.16). Structurally, the IHC (-H in the B-ring) sub-series exhibited relatively stronger MAO-B inhibition than the others. In the IHC series, IHC3 (-F in the A-ring) exhibited stronger MAO-B suppression than the other substituted derivatives in the order -F > -Br > -Cl > -OCH3, -CH3, and -H at the 2-position in the A-ring. In the reversibility and enzyme kinetics experiments, IHC3 was a reversible inhibitor with a Ki value of 0.51 ± 0.15 μM for MAO-B. Further, it was observed that IHC3 greatly decreased the cell death caused by rotenone in SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells. A molecular docking study of the lead molecule was also performed to determine hypothetical interactions in the enzyme-binding cavity. These findings suggest that IHC3 is a strong, specific, and reversible MAO-B inhibitor that can be used to treat neurological diseases.

Abstract
Neuroinflammation plays a crucial role in the progression of Alzheimer's disease and other neurodegenerative disorders. Overactivated microglia cause neurotoxicity and prolong the inflammatory response in many neuropathologies. In this study, we have synthesised a series of isatin derivatives to evaluate their anti-neuroinflammatory potential using lipopolysaccharide activated microglia as a cell model. We explored four different substitutions of the isatin moiety by testing their anti-neuroinflammatory activity on BV2 microglia cells. Based on the low cytotoxicity and the activity in reducing the release of nitric oxide, pro-inflammatory interleukin 6 and tumour necrosis factor α by microglial cells, the N1-alkylated compound 10 and the chlorinated 20 showed the best results at 25 µM. Taken together, the data suggest that 10 and 20 are promising lead compounds for developing new neuroprotective agents.

Abstract
Diabetes is also known as a critical and noisy disease. Hyperglycemia, that is, increased blood glucose level is a common effect of uncontrolled diabetes, and over a period of time can cause serious effects on health such as blood vessel damage and nervous system damage. However, many attempts have been made to find suitable and beneficial solutions to overcome diabetes. Considering this fact, we synthesized a novel series of indoline-2,3-dione-based benzene sulfonamide derivatives and evaluated them against α-glucosidase and α-amylase enzymes. Out of the synthesized sixteen compounds (1-16), only three compounds showed better results; the IC50 value was in the range of 12.70 ± 0.20 to 0.90 ± 0.10 μM for α-glucosidase against acarbose 11.50 ± 0.30 μM and 14.90 ± 0.20 to 1.10 ± 0.10 μM for α-amylase against acarbose 12.20 ± 0.30 μM. Among the series, only three compounds showed better inhibitory potential such as analogues 11 (0.90 ± 0.10 μM for α-glucosidase and 1.10 ± 0.10 μM for α-amylase), 1 (1.10 ± 0.10 μM for α-glucosidase and 1.30 ± 0.10 μM for α-amylase), and 6 (1.20 ± 0.10 μM for α-glucosidase and 1.60 ± 0.10 μM for α-amylase). Molecular modeling was performed to determine the binding affinity of active interacting residues against these enzymes, and it was found that benzenesulfonohydrazide derivatives can be indexed as suitable inhibitors for diabetes mellitus.

Abstract
Biofouling is responsible for structural and economic damage to man-made surfaces. Antifouling paints with biocides have been applied to structures to avoid organism adhesion; however, they have high toxicity and are not able to prevent all biofouling processes, necessitating the periodic mechanical removal of organisms and paint reapplication. Thus, there is an urgent demand for novel, effective, and environmentally friendly antifouling alternatives. As isonitrosoacetanilide is the precursor for many compounds with antibacterial activity, we believe that it could have antifouling activity against microfouling and, consequently, against macrofouling. The aim of this work was to investigate the antifouling potential of six isonitrosoacetanilide compounds and their toxicity. The compounds were employed at different concentrations (0.625-1.25-2.5-5-10 µg mL-1) in this study. The biofilm and planktonic bacteria inhibition and biofilm eradication potential were evaluated by crystal violet assay, while Amphibalus amphitrite barnacle settlement was evaluated by cyprid settlement assay. Toxicity evaluation (LC50 and EC50) was performed with A. amphitrite nauplii II and cyprid larvae. At least one of the tested concentrations of 4-Br-INA, 4-CH3-INA, and 2-Br-INA compounds showed nontoxic antifouling activity against microfouling (antibiofilm) and macrofouling (antisettlement). However, only 4-CH3-INA and 2-Br-INA also showed biofilm eradication potential. These compounds with antibiofilm activity and nontoxic effects could be combined with acrylic base paint resin or added directly into commercial paints in place of toxicant biocides to cover artificial structures as friendly antifouling agents.

Abstract
Two series of 1,3,4-thiadiazole (40a-o) and 1,2,4-triazole-5-thione (41a-l) derivatives bearing a 2-pentyl-5-phenyl-1,2,4-triazole-3-one ring were synthesized and then studied for their urease inhibitory activities using thiourea as a standard drug. Among the two groups, the first group (40a-o) did not show good activity while the second group (41a-l) showed excellent activity. Compound 41j (1091.24 ± 14.02 µM) of the second series of compounds showed lower activity than thiourea, while the remaining 11 compounds (41a-i, k, and l) showed better activity than thiourea (183.92 ± 13.14 µM). Among the 11 compounds, 41b (15.96 ± 2.28 µM) having the 3-F group on the phenyl ring showed the highest inhibitory activity. Urease kinetic studies of 41b, which is the most active compound, determined it to have an un-competitive inhibition potential. Moreover, in silico analysis against urease from jack bean with 27 new heterocyclic compounds and the reference molecule was carried out to see the necessary interactions responsible for urease activity. The docking calculations of all compounds supported stronger binding to the receptor than the reference molecule, with high inhibition constants. In addition, compound 40m was characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. X-ray analysis reveals that the structures of the compound 40m crystallize in the monoclinic P21/c space group with the cell parameters: a = 10.2155(9) Å, b = 22.1709(18) Å, c = 21.4858(17) Å, β = 99.677(8)°, V = 4797.0(7) Å3 . X-ray diffraction analyses were also performed to gain insights into the role of weak intermolecular interactions and C-H…X (halogen) interactions in compound 40m that influence the crystal packing.

Synthesis and Evaluation of Antiproliferative Activity, Topoisomerase IIα Inhibition, DNA Binding and Non-Clinical Toxicity of New Acridine-Thiosemicarbazone Derivatives. Pharmaceuticals (Basel) 2022; 15:ph15091098. [PMID: 36145320 PMCID: PMC9506480 DOI: 10.3390/ph15091098] [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: 07/06/2022] [Revised: 08/16/2022] [Accepted: 08/30/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
In this study, we report the synthesis of twenty new acridine–thiosemicarbazone derivatives and their antiproliferative activities. Mechanisms of action such as the inhibition of topoisomerase IIα and the interaction with DNA have been studied for some of the most active derivatives by means of both in silico and in vitro methods, and evaluations of the non-clinical toxicities (in vivo) in mice. In general, the compounds showed greater cytotoxicity against B16-F10 cells, with the highest potency for DL-08 (IC50 = 14.79 µM). Derivatives DL-01 (77%), DL-07 (74%) and DL-08 (79%) showed interesting inhibition of topoisomerase IIα when compared to amsacrine, at 100 µM. In silico studies proposed the way of bonding of these compounds and a possible stereoelectronic reason for the absence of enzymatic activity for CL-07 and DL-06. Interactions with DNA presented different spectroscopic effects and indicate that the compound CL-07 has higher affinity for DNA (Kb = 4.75 × 104 M−1; Ksv = 2.6 × 103 M−1). In addition, compounds selected for non-clinical toxicity testing did not show serious signs of toxicity at the dose of 2000 mg/kg in mice; cytotoxic tests performed on leukemic cells (K-562) and its resistant form (K-562 Lucena 1) identified moderate potency for DL-01 and DL-08, with IC50 between 11.45 and 17.32 µM.

Isatin Counteracts Diethylnitrosamine/2-Acetylaminofluorene-Induced Hepatocarcinogenesis in Male Wistar Rats by Upregulating Anti-Inflammatory, Antioxidant, and Detoxification Pathways. Antioxidants (Basel) 2022; 11:antiox11040699.

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
In our search for novel small molecules activating procaspase-3, we have designed and synthesized two series of novel (E)-N'-arylidene-2-(2-oxoindolin-1-yl)acetohydrazides (4) and (Z)-2-(5-substituted-2-oxoindolin-1-yl)-N'-(2-oxoindolin-3-ylidene)acetohydrazides (5). Cytotoxic evaluation revealed that the compounds showed notable cytotoxicity toward three human cancer cell lines: colon cancer SW620, prostate cancer PC-3, and lung cancer NCI-H23. Especially, six compounds, including 4f–h and 4n–p, exhibited cytotoxicity equal or superior to positive control PAC-1, the first procaspase-3 activating compound. The most potent compound 4o was three- to five-fold more cytotoxic than PAC-1 in three cancer cell lines tested. Analysis of compounds effects on cell cycle and apoptosis demonstrated that the representative compounds 4f, 4h, 4n, 4o and 4p (especially 4o) accumulated U937 cells in S phase and substantially induced late cellular apoptosis. The results show that compound 4o would serve as a template for further design and development of novel anticancer agents.

Abstract
Breast cancer is a complex and multi-drug resistant (MDR) disease, which could result in the failure of many chemotherapeutic clinical agents. Discovering effective molecules from natural products or by derivatization from known compounds is the interest of many research studies. The first objective of the present study is to investigate the cytotoxic combinatorial, chemosensitizing, and apoptotic effects of an isatin derived compound (5,5-diphenylimidazolidine-2,4-dione conjugated with 5-substituted isatin, named HAA2021 in the present study) against breast cancer cells (MCF7) and breast cancer cells resistant to doxorubicin (MCF7/ADR) when combined with doxorubicin. The second objective is to investigate the binding mode of HAA2021 withP-glycoprotein (P-gp) and heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90), and to determine whether their co-inhibition by HAA2021 contribute to the increase of the chemosensitization of MCF7/ADR cells to doxorubicin. The combination of HAA2021, at non-toxic doses, with doxorubicin synergistically inhibited the proliferation while inducing significant apoptosis in MCF7 cells. Moreover, HAA2021 increased the chemosensitization of MCF7/ADR cells to doxorubicin, resulting in increased cytotoxicity/selectivity and apoptosis-inducing efficiency compared with the effect of doxorubicin or HAA2021 alone against MCF7/ADR cells. Molecular modeling showed that two molecules of HAA2021 bind to P-gp at the same time, causing P-gp inhibitory effect of the MDR efflux pump, and accumulation of Rhodamine-123 (Rho123) in MCF7/ADR cells. Furthermore, HAA2021 stably interacted with Hsp90α more efficiently compared with 17-N-allylamino-17-demethoxygeldanamycin (17-AAG), which was confirmed with the surface plasmon resonance (SPR) and molecular modeling studies. Additionally, HAA2021 showed multi-target effects via the inhibition of Hsp90 and nuclear factor kappa B (NF-𝜅B) proteins in MCF7 and MCF7/ADR cells. Results of real time-PCR also confirmed the synergistic co-inhibition of P-gp/Hsp90α genes in MCF7/ADR cells. Further pharmacokinetic and in vivo studies are warranted for HAA2021 to confirm its anticancer capabilities.

Abstract
Hybridization is an important strategy to design molecules that can be effectively used to treat fatal diseases known to mankind. Molecular hybrids and their pharmacological investigations aided in discovering several potent isatin (Indole 2, 3 dione) derivatives with anti-HIV, antimalarial, antitubercular, antibacterial, and anticancer activities. Indole-2,3-dione and their derivatives have diverse pharmacological properties and have a prominent role in the discovery of new drugs. To understand the various approaches for designing new molecules based on isatin nucleus analysis of various pharmacophore hybrids, spacers/linkers between pharmacophores and isatin for hybridization and their biological activities are important. This review discusses the progress in developing isatin hybrids as biologically effective agents and their crucial aspects of design and structure-activity relationships.

Abstract
Hen egg white lysozyme (HEWL) is a structural homolog of human lysozyme and is widely used as a model protein to investigate protein aggregation. The effect of N-benzylisatin on stress-induced aggregation of HEWL has been investigated in the present study. Interaction of the isatin derivative with HEWL induced changes in protein secondary and tertiary structural conformation as evident from different biophysical and spectroscopic studies. In addition, modification with N-benzylisatin was found to increase the conformational stability of HEWL and afford considerable resistance to the protein to stress-induced aggregation as indicated from subsequent experimental studies, including thioflavin T fluorescence, microscopic imaging and dynamic light scattering analysis. Protein modification was analysed and confirmed by MALDI-TOF and ESI-MS studies. The results highlight possible clinical implications of isatin derivative in the treatment of protein misfolding and conformational disorders.

Abstract
In recent years, spiro compounds have attracted significant interest in medicinal chemistry due to their numerous biological activities attributed primarily to their versatility and structural similarity to important pharmacophore centers. Currently, the development of drugs with potential antioxidant activities is of great importance since numerous investigations have shown that oxidative stress is involved in the development and progression of numerous diseases such as cancer, senile cataracts, kidney failure, diabetes, high blood pressure, cirrhosis, and neurodegenerative diseases, among others. This article provides an overview of the synthesis and various antioxidant activities found in naturally occurring and synthetic spiro compounds. Among the antioxidant activities reviewed are DPPH, ABTS, FRAP, anti-LPO, superoxide, xanthine oxidase, peroxide, hydroxyl, and nitric oxide tests, among others. Molecules that presented best results for these tests were spiro compounds G14, C12, D41, C18, C15, D5, D11, E1, and C14. In general, most active compounds are characterized for having at least one oxygen atom; an important number of them (around 35%) are phenolic compounds, and in molecules where this functional group was absent, aryl ethers and nitrogen-containing functional groups such as amine and amides could be found. Recent advances in the antioxidant activity profiles of spiro compounds have shown that they have a significant position in discovering drugs with potential antioxidant activities.

Abstract
The SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus outbreak continues to spread at a rapid rate worldwide. The main protease (Mpro) is an attractive target for anti-COVID-19 agents. Unexpected difficulties have been encountered in the design of specific inhibitors. Here, by analyzing an ensemble of ∼30 000 SARS-CoV-2 Mpro conformations from crystallographic studies and molecular simulations, we show that small structural variations in the binding site dramatically impact ligand binding properties. Hence, traditional druggability indices fail to adequately discriminate between highly and poorly druggable conformations of the binding site. By performing ∼200 virtual screenings of compound libraries on selected protein structures, we redefine the protein's druggability as the consensus chemical space arising from the multiple conformations of the binding site formed upon ligand binding. This procedure revealed a unique SARS-CoV-2 Mpro blueprint that led to a definition of a specific structure-based pharmacophore. The latter explains the poor transferability of potent SARS-CoV Mpro inhibitors to SARS-CoV-2 Mpro, despite the identical sequences of the active sites. Importantly, application of the pharmacophore predicted novel high affinity inhibitors of SARS-CoV-2 Mpro, that were validated by in vitro assays performed here and by a newly solved X-ray crystal structure. These results provide a strong basis for effective rational drug design campaigns against SARS-CoV-2 Mpro and a new computational approach to screen protein targets with malleable binding sites.

Abstract
Pain and inflammation are symptoms of various diseases, and they can be modulated by different pathways, thus highlighting the importance of investigating the therapeutic effects of novel compounds. Previous studies have shown that isatin-thiosemicarbazone exhibits antitumor, antifungal antibacterial and other biological properties. Based on the wide range of biological effects of these compounds, the aim of the present study was to investigate the central nervous system (CNS) performance, and the anti-nociceptive and anti-inflammatory activity of (Z)-2-(5-nitro-2-oxoindolin-3-ilidene)-N-hydroazinecarbothioamide (PA-Int5) in treated mice. Three doses of PA-Int5 were tested orally (1.0, 2.5 and 5.0 mg/kg) in the nociceptive and inflammatory animal models. Additionally, the potential sedative effects of PA-Int5 (5 mg/kg, oral gavage) were investigated using an open field and rotarod tests, to exclude any possible unspecific effects of the nociceptive assays. Anti-nociceptive activity was assessed using the acetic acid-induced abdominal contortion and formalin tests, whereas anti-inflammatory activity was assessed using a carrageenan-induced paw edema and zymosan-induced air-pouch models. PA-Int5 (5 mg/kg) induced anti-nociceptive activity in the abdominal contortion model. In the formalin test, PA-Int5 (at 2.5 and 5 mg/kg) reduced nociception in the second phase. At the higher dose tested, PA-Int5 did not affect spontaneous locomotion or motor coordination. The data revealed that at all doses tested, the compound significantly reduced paw edema following carrageenan administration. In the zymosan-induced air-pouch model, PA-Int5 potently inhibited leukocyte migration and protein levels at the site of inflammation. When combined, the results revealed, for the first time, that PA-Int5 exhibited anti-nociceptive and anti-inflammatory activities, and highlights its potential, as well that of other derivatives, as novel candidates for pain relief.

Abstract
In this study, a series of new isatin aroylhydrazones (5a-e and 6a-e) was synthesized and evaluated for their anticonvulsant activities. The (Z)-configuration of compounds was confirmed by 1H NMR. In vivo studies using maximal electroshock (MES) and pentylenetetrazole (PTZ) models of epilepsy in mice revealed that while most of compounds had no effect on chemically-induced seizures at the higher dose of 100 mg/kg but showed significant protection against electrically-induced seizures at the lower dose of 5 mg/kg. Certainly, N-methyl analogs 6a and 6e were found to be the most effective compounds, displaying 100% protection at the dose of 5 mg/kg. Protein binding and lipophilicity(logP) of the selected compounds (6a and 6e) were also determined experimentally. In silico evaluations of title compounds showed acceptable ADME parameters, and drug-likeness properties. Distance mapping and docking of the selected compounds with different targets proposed the possible action of them on VGSCs and GABAA receptors. The cytotoxicity evaluation of 6a and 6e against SH-SY5Y and Hep-G2 cell lines indicated safety profile of compounds on the neuronal and hepatic cells.

Abstract
Psoriasis is a chronic autoimmune skin disorder that involves keratinocyte hyperproliferation and inflammatory cell recruitment. A strategy to mitigate psoriatic lesions is to induce keratinocyte apoptosis for proliferation suppression. Herein we designed a nanoformulation capable of treating psoriasis via hyperthermia-induced apoptosis in response to near-infrared (NIR) irradiation. To this end, gold nanorods (GNRs) and isatin, which is an anti-inflammatory agent for synergizing antipsoriatic activity, were loaded into a poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) matrix to form the nanocomplexes. The physicochemical and photothermal properties of the nanocomplexes were determined in terms of size, surface charge, NIR-absorbing feature, isatin release, keratinocyte uptake, and cytotoxicity. The nanocomplexes showed a spherical shape with an average size of about 180 nm. The GNR-loaded nanoparticles can efficiently convert NIR light at 0.42 W/cm2 into heat with an increased temperature of 10 °C. When combined with NIR exposure, the nanocomplexes were internalized into keratinocyte cytoplasm with an inhibition of keratinocyte viability to about 60%. Live/dead cell assay and flow cytometry confirmed that the nanocomplexes could serve as NIR-absorbers to specifically elicit keratinocyte apoptosis through caspase and poly ADP-ribose polymerase (PARP) pathways. The in vivo psoriasiform murine model indicated that the combined nanocomplexes and NIR inhibited epidermal hyperplasia and neutrophil infiltration. The overexpressed cytokines in the lesion could be recovered to normal baseline level after the photothermal management. The subcutaneous nanocomplexes remained in the skin for at least 5 days. The nanocomposites produced a negligible toxicity in the skin or liver of healthy mice. The photothermal nanosystems, as designed in this study, shed new light on the therapeutic approach against psoriasis.

Abstract
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), is a rapidly growing health care emergency across the world. One of the viral proteases called main protease or Mpro, plays a crucial role in the replication of SARS-CoV-2. As the structure of Mpro of SARS-CoV-2 is similar to the Mpro of SARS-CoV-1 (responsible for SARS outbreak between 2002 and 2004), we hypothesize that the inhibitors of SARS-CoV-1 Mpro can also inhibit the Mpro of SARS-CoV-2. To test this hypothesis, a total of 79 isatin derivatives, which inhibited Mpro activity under in vitro conditions, were selected from the literature, and then screened through AutoDock Vina. The chemical features of the top 5 isatin derivatives with low binding energies (-8.5 to -8.2 kcal/mol) were used to screen similar types of compounds from several small-molecule libraries containing 15856508 compounds. A total of 1,609 compounds with similarity score ≥ 6 were screened and then subjected to docking as well as ADME analysis. Among the compounds screened, 4 ligands form Zinc drug-like library (ZINC000008848565, ZINC000009513563, ZINC000036759789 and ZINC000046053855) showed good ADMET properties, low binding energy (-8.4 to -8.6 kcal/mol), low interaction energy (-72.62 to -50.01 kcal/mol) and high structural stability with Mpro. Hence, the selected ligands might serve as the lead candidates for further wet laboratory validation, optimization and development.Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.

Abstract
The structure-based design of some CDK2 inhibitors with a 3-(benzylidene)indolin-2-one scaffold as potential anticancer agents was realized. Target compounds were obtained as E/Z mixtures and were resolved to corresponding E- and Z-diastereomers. In silico studies using MOE 2019.01 software revealed better docking on the targeted enzyme for the Z-diastereomer compared to the E-one. A time-dependent kinetic isomerization study was carried out for the inversion of E/Z diastereomers in DMSO-d6 at room temperature, and were found to obey the first order kinetic reactions. Furthermore, a determination of the kinetic inter-conversion rate order by graphical analysis method and calculation of the rate constant and half-life of this kinetic process were carried out. For the prediction of the stability of the diastereomer(s), a good multiple regression equation was generated between the reaction rates of isomerization and some QM parameters with significant p value.

Abstract
Meloidogyne incognita is an economically dominant pathogen infesting a wide range of crops curbing their growth and productivity. Deregistration of frontline nematicides has necessitated exploration of innovative and novel class of structurally diverse nematicides with streamlined activity. In this context, N-alkylated derivatives of isatin known for their remarkable biological profile were synthesized, characterized and evaluated in vitro for their antinemic character followed by in silico studies for their mode of action and toxicological studies for their fitness as agrochemical. The antinemic evaluation was carried by egg hatch inhibition and juvenile mortality and its effect on egg hatching. Compounds 1 and 2a exhibited nematicidal potential and significantly decreased egg hatching and increased juvenile mortality. For egg hatch inhibition LC50 and LC95 values for 1 were found to be 0.125 and 1.380 mg/ml and for compound 2a, 0.457 and 8.511 mg/ml respectively. For juvenile mortality LC50 and LC95 values for 1 were found to be 0.109 and 0.776 mg/ml and for 2a, 0.190 and 1.380 mg/ml respectively. For insights into the mode of action of the synthesized molecules, in silico studies for the targeted effects were conducted which revealed novel interaction with pathogenic protein - Aspartyl protease. Computational studies on the drug-ability and potential toxicity of the selected compounds revealed they belonged to class IV and are safe. With good reasons, our compounds hold value for their exploration in agrochemical industry and thus, this study identifies a new scaffold with useful level of nematicidal activity for its use in agriculture industry.
