Eur J Med Chem 2024; 275:116576. [PMID: 38861808 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejmech.2024.116576] [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: 03/31/2024] [Revised: 05/29/2024] [Accepted: 06/04/2024] [Indexed: 06/13/2024]
Abstract
Sepsis can quickly result in fatality for critically ill individuals, while liver damage can expedite the progression of sepsis, necessitating the exploration of new strategies for treating hepatic sepsis. PDE4 has been identified as a potential target for the treatment of liver damage. The scaffold hopping of lead compounds FCPR16 and Z19153 led to the discovery of a novel 7-methoxybenzofuran PDE4 inhibitor 4e, demonstrating better PDE4B (IC50 = 10.0 nM) and PDE4D (IC50 = 15.2 nM) inhibitor activity as a potential anti-hepatic sepsis drug in this study. Compared with FCPR16 and Z19153, 4e displayed improved oral bioavailability (F = 66 %) and longer half-life (t1/2 = 2.0 h) in SD rats, which means it can be more easily administered and has a longer-lasting effect. In the D-GalN/LPS-induced liver injury model, 4e exhibited excellent hepatoprotective activity against hepatic sepsis by decreasing ALT and AST levels and inflammatory infiltrating areas.

Development of White Cabbage, Coffee, and Red Onion Extracts as Natural Phosphodiesterase-4B (PDE4B) Inhibitors for Cognitive Dysfunction: In Vitro and In Silico Studies. Adv Pharmacol Pharm Sci 2024; 2024:1230239. [PMID: 38808119 PMCID: PMC11132833 DOI: 10.1155/2024/1230239] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/25/2023] [Revised: 04/15/2024] [Accepted: 04/25/2024] [Indexed: 05/30/2024] Open
Abstract
Human cognition fundamentally depends on memory. Alzheimer's disease exhibits a strong correlation with a decline in this factor. Phosphodiesterase-4 B (PDE4B) plays a crucial role in neurodegenerative disorders, and its inhibition is one of the promising approaches for memory enhancement. This study aimed to identify secondary metabolites in white cabbage, coffee, and red onion extracts and identify their molecular interaction with PDE4B by in silico and in vitro experiments. Crushed white cabbage and red onion were macerated separately with ethanol to yield respective extracts, and ground coffee was boiled with water to produce aqueous extract. Thin layer chromatography (TLC)-densitometry was used to examine the phytochemicals present in white cabbage, coffee, and red onion extracts. Molecular docking studies were performed to know the interaction of test compounds with PDE4B. TLC-densitometry analysis showed that chlorogenic acid and quercetin were detected as major compounds in coffee and red onion extracts, respectively. In silico studies revealed that alpha-tocopherol (binding free energy (∆Gbind) = -38.00 kcal/mol) has the strongest interaction with PDE4B whereas chlorogenic acid (∆Gbind = -21.50 kcal/mol) and quercetin (∆Gbind = -17.25 kcal/mol) exhibited moderate interaction. In vitro assay showed that the combination extracts (cabbage, coffee, and red onion) had a stronger activity (half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) = 0.12 ± 0.03 µM) than combination standards (sinigrin, chlorogenic acid, and quercetin) (IC50 = 0.17 ± 0.03 µM) and rolipram (IC50 = 0.15 ± 0.008 µM). Thus, the combination extracts are a promising cognitive enhancer by blocking PDE4B activity.

Abstract
Phosphodiesterases (PDEs) have become a promising therapeutic target for various disorders. PDEs are a vast and diversified family of enzymes that degrade cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) and cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP), which have several biochemical and physiological functions. Phosphodiesterase 4 (PDE4) is the most abundant PDE in the central nervous system (CNS) and is extensively expressed in the mammalian brain, where it catalyzes the hydrolysis of intracellular cAMP. An alteration in the balance of PDE4 and cAMP results in the dysregulation of different biological mechanisms involved in neurodegenerative diseases. By inhibiting PDE4 with drugs, the levels of cAMP inside the cells could be stabilized, which may improve the symptoms of mental and neurological disorders such as memory loss, depression, and Parkinson's disease (PD). Though numerous studies have shown that phosphodiesterase 4 inhibitors (PDE4Is) are beneficial in PD, there are presently no approved PDE4I drugs for PD. This review presents an overview of PDE4Is and their effects on PD, their possible underlying mechanism in the restoration/protection of dopaminergic cell death, which holds promise for developing PDE4Is as a treatment strategy for PD. Methods on how these drugs could be effectively delivered to develop as a promising treatment for PD have been suggested.

Abstract
Alcohol use disorder (AUD) results in numerous disabilities and approximately 3 million deaths annually, caused mainly by alcoholic liver disease (ALD). Phosphodiesterase IV (PDE4) has emerged as an attractive molecular target for a new treatment for AUD and ALD. In this study, we describe the identification of 5-azaindazole analogues as PDE4 inhibitors against AUD and ALD. System optimization studies led to the discovery of ZL40 (IC50 = 37.4 nM) with a remarkable oral bioavailability (F = 94%), satisfactory safety, and a lower emetogenic potency than the approved PDE4 inhibitors roflumilast and apremilast. Encouragingly, ZL40 exhibited AUD therapeutic effects by decreasing alcohol intake and improving acute alcohol-induced sedation and motor impairment. Meanwhile, ZL40 displayed the potential to alleviate alcoholic liver injury and attenuate inflammation in the NIAAA mice model. These results showed that ZL40 is a promising compound for future drug development to treat alcohol-related diseases.

Abstract
Phosphodiesterase-4, the primary enzyme responsible for cAMP degradation in the majority of immune and inflammatory cells, plays a critical role in the regulation of intracellular cAMP levels. Consequently, small molecular entities capable of inhibiting PDE4 have been employed in the treatment of inflammation-associated disorders, such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), psoriasis, atopic dermatitis (AD), inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD), rheumatic arthritis (RA). In the present investigation, a multi-faceted approach was employed to identify novel PDE4 inhibitors, utilizing the co-crystallization structure of PDE4B available in the Protein Data Bank (PDB) database, drug-like screening, false positive filtration, similarity and ADMET screen, as well as molecular docking via multiple software platforms, in conjunction with bioactivity assays. A thiazol-3-propanamides derivative, designated MR9, was discovered to inhibit PDE4B activity with IC50 values of 2.12 μM and suppress cellular inflammatory factor TNF-α release with an EC50 value of 3.587 μM. These findings suggest that the innovative active scaffold of MR9 offers a promising foundation for further structural refinement aimed at developing more potent PDE4 inhibitors.

Abstract
Clinicians and researchers are exploring safer and novel treatment strategies for treating the ever-prevalent Parkinson's disease (PD) across the globe. Several therapeutic strategies are used clinically for PD, including dopamine replacement therapy, DA agonists, MAO-B blockers, COMT blockers, and anticholinergics. Surgical interventions such as pallidotomy, particularly deep brain stimulation (DBS), are also employed. However, they only provide temporal and symptomatic relief. Cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) is one of the secondary messengers involved in dopaminergic neurotransmission. Phosphodiesterase (PDE) regulates cAMP and cGMP intracellular levels. PDE enzymes are subdivided into families and subtypes which are expressed throughout the human body. PDE4 isoenzyme- PDE4B subtype is overexpressed in the substantia nigra of the brain. Various studies have implicated multiple cAMP-mediated signaling cascades in PD, and PDE4 is a common link that can emerge as a neuroprotective and/or disease-modifying target. Furthermore, a mechanistic understanding of the PDE4 subtypes has provided perceptivity into the molecular mechanisms underlying the adverse effects of phosphodiesterase-4 inhibitors (PDE4Is). The repositioning and development of efficacious PDE4Is for PD have gained much attention. This review critically assesses the existing literature on PDE4 and its expression. Specifically, this review provides insights into the interrelated neurological cAMP-mediated signaling cascades involving PDE4s and the potential role of PDE4Is in PD. In addition, we discuss existing challenges and possible strategies for overcoming them.

Abstract
Nineteen TH03 analogues were designed and synthesized as tubulin colchicine-binding site inhibitors with potent antiproliferative activities. Among these compounds, 3,5-dimethoxyphenylpyridines 8j bearing a 4-methoxybenzyl aniline side-chain displayed the best antiproliferative activities against glioma (U87MG and U251). In addition, the trimethoxyphenylpyridine 8o bearing a 4-methyl-N-methyl aniline side-chain showed the best antiproliferative activities against colon carcinoma and lung cancer with the lowest IC50 value (0.09 µM < IC50 < 0.86 µM). Compared with CA-4, Compounds 8j and 8o displayed lower cytotoxicities toward normal cells but higher antiproliferative activities against RKO (IC50 = 0.15 µM and 0.09 µM respectively), NCI-H1299 (IC50 = 0.73 µM and 0.14 µM respectively), and A549 cells (IC50 = 0.86 µM and 0.37 µM respectively). Further investigations revealed that 8o shows higher tubulin polymerization inhibitory activity (IC50 = 3.1 ± 0.5 µM) than colchicine (IC50 = 8.6 ± 0.2 µM), and induced cell cycle arrest at the G2/M phase and cellular apoptosis through disrupting the microtubule network.
