Myslivecek J. Dopamine and Dopamine-Related Ligands Can Bind Not Only to Dopamine Receptors. Life (Basel) 2022; 12:life12050606. [PMID: 35629274 PMCID: PMC9147915 DOI: 10.3390/life12050606] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/21/2022] [Revised: 04/11/2022] [Accepted: 04/17/2022] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
The dopaminergic system is one of the most important neurotransmitter systems in the central nervous system (CNS). It acts mainly by activation of the D1-like receptor family at the target cell. Additionally, fine-tuning of the signal is achieved via pre-synaptic modulation by the D2-like receptor family. Some dopamine drugs (both agonists and antagonists) bind in addition to DRs also to α2-ARs and 5-HT receptors. Unfortunately, these compounds are often considered subtype(s) specific. Thus, it is important to consider the presence of these receptor subtypes in specific CNS areas as the function virtually elicited by one receptor type could be an effect of other—or the co-effect of multiple receptors. However, there are enough molecules with adequate specificity. In this review, we want to give an overview of the most common off-targets for established dopamine receptor ligands. To give an overall picture, we included a discussion on subtype selectivity. Molecules used as antipsychotic drugs are reviewed too. Therefore, we will summarize reported affinities and give an outline of molecules sufficiently specific for one or more subtypes (i.e., for subfamily), the presence of DR, α2-ARs, and 5-HT receptors in CNS areas, which could help avoid ambiguous results.

Abstract
AbstractA series of tetrazole-linked dibenzo[b,f][1,4]oxazepines is synthesized through a short sequence involving an Ugi tetrazole reaction. The intermediate tetrazole undergoes a potassium carbonate mediated SNAr cyclization, followed by oxidation to afford the target tricyclic heterocyclic scaffold. The optimization, scope and limitations of this two-step and efficient methodology are investigated. A 1000-member library of tetrazole-linked dibenzo[b,f][1,4]oxazepines is generated and the physicochemical properties are analyzed. great

Abstract
Many medium ring-sized heterocyclic motifs are found in naturally occurring compounds
of significant biological activity which led to the investigation of the biological activity of simpler
heterocyclic compounds accommodating these ring systems. Therefore, the development of newer
synthetic methodologies to access such ring systems has remained an important activity over the last
few decades. However, common methods of their synthesis are usually associated with thermodynamic
disadvantages. Many metal-mediated transformations e.g., Heck reaction, Suzuki reaction, etc.
tend to overcome some of these effects but at the cost of environmental disadvantages. In recent
years, several green chemical techniques have found useful applications in the synthesis of such ring
systems. In particular, the use of microwave technology has provided better opportunities. The present
review attempts to highlight many synthetic approaches developed for the synthesis of such heterocyclic
scaffolds of pharmacological interest involving condensation reaction, coupling reaction,
Multi-component reaction, Cyclo-addition reaction, Dipolar cycloaddition reaction, etc. An emphasis
has also been given on the distinct advantages offered by microwave application over classical approaches,
wherever such knowledge is available.

Identification of Mycobacterial Genes Involved in Antibiotic Sensitivity: Implications for the Treatment of Tuberculosis with β-Lactam-Containing Regimens. Antimicrob Agents Chemother 2017; 61:AAC.00425-17. [PMID: 28438925 DOI: 10.1128/aac.00425-17] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/28/2017] [Accepted: 04/09/2017] [Indexed: 12/25/2022] Open
Abstract
In a Mycobacterium smegmatis mutant library screen, transposon mutants with insertions in fhaA, dprE2, rpsT, and parA displayed hypersusceptibility to antibiotics, including the β-lactams meropenem, ampicillin, amoxicillin, and cefotaxime. Sub-MIC levels of octoclothepin, a psychotic drug inhibiting ParA, phenocopied the parA insertion and enhanced the bactericidal activity of meropenem against Mycobacterium tuberculosis in combination with clavulanate. Our study identifies novel factors associated with antibiotic resistance, with implications in repurposing β-lactams for tuberculosis treatment.

Abstract
This review describes the recent advances in the microwave-assisted synthesis of 7-membered and larger heterocyclic compounds. Several types of reaction for the cyclization step are discussed: Ring Closing Metathesis (RCM), Heck and Sonogashira reactions, Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling, dipolar cycloadditions, multi-component reactions (Ugi, Passerini), etc. Green syntheses and solvent-free procedures have been introduced whenever possible. The syntheses discussed herein have been selected to illustrate the huge potential of microwave in the synthesis of highly functionalized molecules with potential therapeutic applications, in high yields, enhanced reaction rates and increased chemoselectivity, compared to conventional methods. More than 100 references from the recent literature are listed in this review.
