[PMID: 38356501 PMCID: PMC10864903 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e25168] [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: 09/11/2023] [Revised: 01/21/2024] [Accepted: 01/22/2024] [Indexed: 02/16/2024] Open
Abstract
Anthraquinones and coumarins have excellent pharmacological activities and are an important class of natural plant metabolites with various biological activities. In this study, anthraquinone-9,10-dione and coumarin derivatives were combined to develop a novel anthraquinone-connected coumarin-derivative sequence. The synthesised novel anthraquinone-connected coumarin derivatives (1a-t) were screened for in vitro antibacterial, antioxidant, and tyrosinase inhibitory activities. The antibacterial activities of the synthesised compounds (1a-t) were tested against both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. Specifically, compound 1t was more active against E. aerogenes than ciprofloxacin. With regard to antioxidant activity, compound 1o (50.68 % at 100 μg/mL) was highly active compared to the other compounds, whereas it was less active than the standard BHT (76.74 % at 100 μg/mL). In terms of compound 1r (9.31 ± 0.45 μg/mL) was highly active against tyrosinase inhibitory activity compared with kojic acid (10.42 ± 0.98 μg/mL). In the molecular docking study, compound 1r had a higher docking score (-8.8 kcal mol-1) than kojic acid (-1.7 kcal mol-1). DFT calculations were performed to determine the energy gap of highly active compound 1r (ΔE = 0.11) and weakly active compound 1a (ΔE = 0.12). In this study, we found that every molecule displayed significant antibacterial, antioxidant, and tyrosinase inhibitory properties. Based on these reports, compounds 1r and 1t may act as multi-target agents.

Abstract
This review summarizes and systematizes the literature on the anti-HIV activity of plant coumarins with emphasis on isolation and the mechanism of their antiviral action. This review summarizes the information on the anti-HIV properties of simple coumarins as well as annulated furano- and pyranocoumarins and shows that coumarins of plant origin can act by several mechanisms: inhibition of HIV reverse transcriptase and integrase, inhibition of cellular factors that regulate HIV-1 replication, and transmission of viral particles from infected macrophages to healthy ones. It is important to note that some pyranocoumarins are able to act through several mechanisms or bind to several sites, which ensures the resistance of these compounds to HIV mutations. Here we review the last two decades of research on the anti-HIV activity of naturally occurring coumarins.

Abstract
Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) includes over ten thousand herbal medicines, some of which were introduced from outside countries and territories. The Silk Road enabled the exchange of merchandise such as teas, silks, carpets, and medicines between the East and West of the Eurasia continent. During this time, the ‘Compendium of Materia Medica’ (CMM) was composed by a traditional medicine practitioner, Shizhen Li (1,518–1,593) of the Ming Dynasty. This epoch-making masterpiece collected knowledge of traditional medical materials and treatments in China from the 16th century and before in utmost detail, including the origin where a material was obtained. Of 1892 medical materials from the CMM, 46 came from Persia (now Iran). In this study, the basic information of these 46 materials, including the time of introduction, the medicinal value in TCM theory, together with the current status of these medicines in China and Iran, are summarized. It is found that 20 herbs and four stones out of the 46 materials are registered as medicinal materials in the latest China Pharmacopoeia. Now most of these herbs and stones are distributed in China or replacements are available but saffron, ferula, myrrh, and olibanum are still highly dependent on imports. This study may contribute to the further development, exchange, and internationalization of traditional medicine of various backgrounds in the world, given the barriers of transportation and language are largely eased in nowadays.

Discovery, optimization, and target identification of novel coumarin derivatives as HIV-1 reverse transcriptase-associated ribonuclease H inhibitors. Eur J Med Chem 2021; 225:113769.

Abstract
Despite significant advances in antiretroviral therapy, acquired immunodeficiency syndrome remains as one of the leading causes of death worldwide. New antiretroviral drugs combined with updated treatment strategies are needed to improve convenience, tolerability, safety, and antiviral efficacy of available therapies. In this work, a focused library of coumarin derivatives was exploited by cell phenotypic screening to discover novel inhibitors of HIV-1 replication. Five compounds (DW-3, DW-4, DW-11, DW-25 and DW-31) showed moderate activity against wild-type and drug-resistant strains of HIV-1 (IIIB and RES056). Four of those molecules were identified as inhibitors of the viral RT-associated RNase H. Structural modification of the most potent DW-3 and DW-4 led to the discovery of compound 8a. This molecule showed increased potency against wild-type HIV-1 strain (EC50 = 3.94 ± 0.22 μM) and retained activity against a panel of mutant strains, showing EC50 values ranging from 5.62 μM to 202 μM. In enzymatic assays, 8a was found to inhibit the viral RNase H with an IC50 of 12.3 μM. Molecular docking studies revealed that 8a could adopt a binding mode similar to that previously reported for other active site HIV-1 RNase H inhibitors.
