Abstract
A series of sulfonamides incorporating a 1,2,3-triazolyloxime substituted 1,2,3-triazolyl moiety were conceptualized and synthesized as human carbonic anhydrase (hCA) inhibitors. The synthesized small structures, denoted 7a through 7o, exhibited moderate inhibitory effects against the tumor-associated isoforms hCA IX and hCA XII compared to the well-known hCA inhibitor acetazolamide. In contrast, these molecules demonstrated higher potency and a diverse range of selectivity against the cytosolic isoforms hCA I and hCA II. Notably, the 4-hydroxyphenyl derivative (compound 7dversus cytosolic isoforms), the 4-acetylphenyl derivative (compound 7o), and the phenyl derivative (compound 7a) emerged as the most potent and selective inhibitors in this series, with inhibition constants (K I) of 47.1, 35.9, 170.0, and 149.9 nM, respectively, against hCA I, II, IX, and XII. Further cytotoxicity assays of compounds 7a-o against cancer cell lines Hep3B and A549, as well as normal cell line L929, were conducted to assess their selectivity towards malignant cells. Compounds 7d, 7g, and 7k exhibited selective cytotoxicity towards the Hep3B cell line, with reduced selectivity towards A549, whereas compound 7j demonstrated higher selectivity for the A549 cell line. Additionally, molecular docking studies were performed to elucidate the binding modes of these compounds within the active sites of hCAs, revealing crucial interactions that underpin their significant activity and selectivity for the tumor-specific isoforms.

Abstract
The α-class carbonic anhydrase (CA, EC 4.2.1.1) from the protozoan pathogen Trypanosoma cruzi, TcCA, was investigated earlier for its inhibition with anions, sulphonamides, thiols and hydroxamates, well-known classes of CA inhibitors (CAIs). Here we present the first inhibition study of this enzyme with phenols, which possess a diverse CA inhibition mechanism compared to the previously investigated compounds, which are all zinc binders. Indeed, phenols are known to anchor to the zinc coordinated water molecule within the enzyme active site. In a series of 22 diversely substituted phenols, the best inhibitors were simple phenol, pyrocatechol, salicylic acid, 3,5-difluorophenol, 3,4-dihydroxy-benzoic acid, 3,6- dihydroxy-benzoic acid, caffeic acid and its des-hydroxy analog, with KIs of 1.8 - 7.3 µM. The least effective TcCA inhibitor was 3-chloro-4-amino-phenol (KI of 47.9 µM). Although it is not yet clear whether TcCA can be considered as an anti-Chagas disease drug target, as no animal model for investigating the antiprotozoan effects is available so far, finding effective in vitro inhibitors may be a first relevant step towards new antiprotozoal agents.

Abstract
The α-class carbonic anhydrases (CAs, EC 4.2.1.1) from the bacterial pathogens Neisseria gonorrhoeae (NgCAα) and Vibrio cholerae (VchCAα) were investigated for their inhibition by a panel of phenols and phenolic acids. Mono-, di- and tri-substituted phenols incorporating additional hydroxyl/hydroxymethyl, amino, acetamido, carboxyl, halogeno and carboxyethenyl moieties were included in the study. The best NgCAα inhibitrs were phenol, 3-aminophenol, 4-hydroxy-benzylalcohol, 3-amino-4-chlorophenol and paracetamol, with KI values of 0.6–1.7 µM. The most effective VchCAα inhibitrs were phenol, 3-amino-4-chlorophenol and 4-hydroxy-benzyl-alcohol, with KI values of 0.7–1.2 µM. Small changes in the phenol scaffold led to drastic effects on the bacterial CA inhibitory activity. This class of underinvestigated bacterial CA inhibitors may thus lead to effective compounds for fighting drug resistant bacteria.

Abstract
AIMS Carbonic anhydrase (CA) in pregnancy plays an important part in gaseous exchange across the placenta. The aim of our study was to determine the relationship between zinc content and the CA activity in blood of anemic and normal pregnant women in their third trimester, in Turkey. METHODS The patients with hemoglobin values below 11 g/dL were accepted as anemic. CA enzyme activity and zinc levels in erythrocyte of anemic and non-anemic pregnant women were carried out in 27 non-anemic pregnant women and 31 anemic pregnant women. Mean corpuscular volume (MCV) levels of the participants were also tested. RESULTS Zinc levels were lower in the anemic group compared to the non-anemic group (P = 0.049). Total CA enzyme activity was also lower in the anemic group (P = 0.044). MCV levels were found to be lower in the anemic group (P = 0.007). The decrease in these values was statistically significant (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION This is the first study to evaluate the zinc content in red blood cells of anemic pregnant women in the third trimester and its relationship with carbonic anhydrase activity. CA isoenzymes to work healthily, providing iron and zinc supports is important for fetal development.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Human carbonic anhydrase I and II (hCAI, II) isoenzymes were purified from human erythrocyte. Kinetic interactions between the enzymes and memantine and donepezil, two different drugs used in Alzheimer's disease (AD) treatment, were investigated. MATERIALS AND METHODS The purification procedure was composed of preparation of homogenate (or hemolysate) and affinity chromatography on Sepharose 4B-L-tyrosine-sulfanilamide. RESULTS Both drug exhibited in vitro activator effects on hCAI and II enzymes activity. Strong activations were found for these compounds: The CA values of memantine and donepezil against hCAI were 0.013 µM and 1.8 µM, respectively. The KA values of memantine and donepezil against hCAII were 0.045 µM and 3.7 µM, respectively. CONCLUSION Since the levels of CA isoenzymes are low in patients with AD or in the older population, increasing activities of these isoenzymes are important for these patients. The effect of these drugs used in AD treatment was thought to be caused by positive changes in the levels of carbonic anhydrase isoenzymes.

Abstract
Phenols are among the largest and most widely distributed groups of secondary metabolites within the plant kingdom. They are implicated in multiple and essential physiological functions. In humans they play an important role as microconstituents of the daily diet, their consumption being considered healthy. The physical and chemical properties of phenolic compounds make these molecules versatile ligands, capable of interacting with a wide range of targets, such as the Carbonic Anhydrases (CAs, EC 4.2.1.1). CAs reversibly catalyze the fundamental reaction of CO2 hydration to bicarbonate and protons in all living organisms, being actively involved in the regulation of a plethora of patho/physiological processes. This review will discuss the most recent advances in the search of naturally occurring phenols and their synthetic derivatives that inhibit the CAs and their mechanisms of action at molecular level. Plant extracts or mixtures are not considered in the present review.
