Assessment of anti-hyperglycemic and anti-hyperlipidemic effects of thiazolidine-2,4-dione derivatives in HFD-STZ diabetic animal model. Chem Biol Interact 2024; 391:110902. [PMID: 38367680 DOI: 10.1016/j.cbi.2024.110902] [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: 11/27/2023] [Revised: 01/25/2024] [Accepted: 02/05/2024] [Indexed: 02/19/2024]
Abstract
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a chronic endocrine/metabolic disorder characterized by elevated postprandial and fasting glycemic levels that result in disturbances in primary metabolism. In this study, we evaluated the metabolic effects of thiazolidine-2,4-dione derivatives in Wistar rats and Swiss mice that were fed a high-fat diet (HFD) for 4 weeks and received 90 mg/kg of streptozotocin (STZ) intraperitoneally as a T2DM model. The HFD consisted of 17% carbohydrate, 58% fat, and 25% protein, as a percentage of total kcal. The thiazolidine-2,4-dione derivatives treatments reduced fasting blood glucose (FBG) levels by an average of 23.98%-50.84%, which were also improved during the oral starch tolerance test (OSTT). Treatment with thiazolidine-2,4-dione derivatives also improved triglyceride (TG), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-c), and total cholesterol levels (P < 0.05). The treatment intake has also shown a significant effect to modulate the altered hepatic and renal biomarkers. Further treatment with thiazolidine-2,4-dione derivatives for 28 days significantly ameliorated changes in appearance and metabolic risk factors, including favorable changes in histopathology of the liver, kidney, and pancreas compared with the HFD/STZ-treated group, suggesting its potential role in the management of diabetes. Thiazolidine-2,4-dione derivatives are a class of drugs that act as insulin sensitizers by activating peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma (PPAR-γ), a nuclear receptor that regulates glucose and lipid metabolism. The results of this study suggest that thiazolidine-2,4-dione derivatives may be a promising treatment option for T2DM by improving glycemic control, lipid metabolism, and renal and hepatic function.

Abstract
Antimicrobial resistance is an increasing problem for global public health. One of the strategies to combat this issue is the synthesis of novel antimicrobials through rational drug design based on extensive structure-activity relationship studies. The thiazole nucleus is a prominent feature in the structure of many authorized antimicrobials, being clubbed with different heterocycles. The purpose of this review is to study the structure-activity relationship in antimicrobial thiazoles clubbed with various heterocycles, as reported in the literature between 2017 and 2023, in order to offer an overview of the last years in terms of antimicrobial research and provide a helpful instrument for future research in the field.

Abstract
This article presents the current state of knowledge regarding electrochemical methods for determining the active substances within drugs that are used in the treatment of type 1 and type 2 diabetes. Electrochemical methods of analysis, due to their sensitivity and easiness, are a great alternative to other, usually more expensive analytical assays. The determination of active substances mentioned in this review is based on oxidation or reduction processes on the surface of the working electrode. A wide variety of working electrodes, often modified with materials such as nanoparticles or conducting polymers, have been used for the highly sensitive analysis of antidiabetic drugs. The presented assays allow us to determine the compounds of interest in various samples, such as pharmaceutical products or different human bodily fluids.

Abstract
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder associated with a decline in memory deficits and neuropathological diagnosis with loss of cholinergic neurons in the brains of older adults. Based on these facts and an increasing number of involved people worldwide, this investigation aimed to study the improvement of memory and cognitive impairments via an anticholinergic approach of thiazolidine-2,4-diones (TZDs) in the scopolamine-induced model of Alzheimer type in adult male Wistar rats (n = 40). The results indicated data analysis obtained from in vivo and in vitro tests for (E)-5-(3-hydroxybenzylidene)-3-(2-oxo-2-phenylethyl)thiazolidine-2,4-dione (TZ3O) (2 and 4 mg/kg) with the meta-hydroxy group and (E)-5-(4-methoxybenzylidene)-3-(2-oxo-2-phenylethyl)thiazolidine-2,4-dione (TZ4M) (2 and 3 mg/kg) with the para-methoxy group showed a neuroprotective effect. TZ3O and TZ4M alleviated the scopolamine-induced cognitive decline of the Alzheimer model in adult male Wistar rats. These initial and noteworthy results could be assumed as a starting point for the evolution of new anti-Alzheimer agents.

Abstract
Mycobacterium tuberculosis uracil-DNA glycosylase (MtUng), a key DNA repair enzyme, represents an attractive target for the design of new antimycobacterial agents. However, only a limited number of weak MtUng inhibitors are reported, primarily based on the uracil ring, and hence, lack diversity. We report the first structure-based virtual screening (SBVS) using three separate libraries consisting of uracil and non-uracil small molecules, together with the FDA-approved drugs. Twenty diverse virtual hits with the highest predicted binding were procured and screened using a fluorescence-based assay to evaluate their potential to inhibit MtUng. Several of these molecules were found to inhibit MtUng activity at low mM and µM levels, comparable to or better than several other reported Ung inhibitors. Thus, these molecules represent a diverse set of scaffolds for developing next-generation MtUng inhibitors. The most active uracil-based compound 5 (IC50 = 0.14 mM) was found to be ∼15-fold more potent than the positive control, uracil. The binding stability and conformation of compound 5 in complex with the enzyme were further confirmed using molecular dynamics simulation.

Abstract
Abstract
Protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTP) regulate various cellular processes and represent important targets for therapeutic intervention in various diseases. Studies have shown that partial or total cessation of the PTP-1B gene in normal and diabetic mice has led to resistance to weight gain and improved insulin response. Also, a further study showed that inhibition of PTP-1B or a reduction in its cellular abundance in mice resulted in similar effects and, as such, provided a rationale for the treatment strategy for type 2 diabetes. Thiazolidinedione (TZD) derivatives have been identified as new PTP-1B inhibitors but the mechanism of interaction between TZD derivatives and PTP-1B is still elusive. In this study, a three-dimensional quantitative structure-activity relationship (3D-QSAR) analysis was performed, including multiple linear regression (MLR) and cross-validation, on a set of TZD derivatives as antidiabetic agents. MLR analysis was performed on 23 PTP-1B TZD derivatives to determine the relationships between physicochemical properties and antidiabetic properties of TZD derivatives. The training data set creates a QSAR model with a correlation coefficient (R
2) of 0.8516, a Q
2 (Leave-One-Out) cross-validation factor of 0.6473, r
2 (correlation coefficient) for the external dataset is 0.8367 while r
2 of predicted dataset is 0.8934 by the MLR Method. The MLR model was also validated by the standardization approach. We observed a high correlation between predicted and observed activity (experimental values), thus confirming and proving the high quality of QSAR models. Finally, molecular docking analysis was performed to better understand the interactions between the PTP-1B target and TZD derivatives. The model proposed in this project can be used to design new TZD derivatives with specific PTP-1B inhibitory activity.

Impact of Molecular Symmetry/Asymmetry on Insulin-Sensitizing Treatments for Type 2 Diabetes. Symmetry (Basel) 2022.

Abstract
Although the advantages and disadvantages of asymmetrical thiazolidinediones as insulin-sensitizers have been well-studied, the relevance of symmetry and asymmetry for thiazolidinediones and biguanides has scarcely been explored. Regarding symmetrical molecules, only one thiazolidinedione and no biguanides have been evaluated and proposed as an antihyperglycemic agent for treating type 2 diabetes. Since molecular structure defines physicochemical, pharmacological, and toxicological properties, it is important to gain greater insights into poorly investigated patterns. For example, compounds with intrinsic antioxidant properties commonly have low toxicity. Additionally, the molecular symmetry and asymmetry of ligands are each associated with affinity for certain types of receptors. An advantageous response obtained in one therapeutic application may imply a poor or even adverse effect in another. Within the context of general patterns, each compound must be assessed individually. The current review aimed to summarize the available evidence for the advantages and disadvantages of utilizing symmetrical and asymmetrical thiazolidinediones and biguanides as insulin sensitizers in patients with type 2 diabetes. Other applications of these same compounds are also examined as well as the various uses of additional symmetrical molecules. More research is needed to exploit the potential of symmetrical molecules as insulin sensitizers.

Abstract
Novel derivatives of Mycosidine (3,5-substituted thiazolidine-2,4-diones) are synthesized by Knoevenagel condensation and reactions of thiazolidines with chloroformates or halo-acetic acid esters. Furthermore, 5-Arylidene-2,4-thiazolidinediones and their 2-thioxo analogs containing halogen and hydroxy groups or di(benzyloxy) substituents in 5-benzylidene moiety are tested for antifungal activity in vitro. Some of the synthesized compounds exhibit high antifungal activity, both fungistatic and fungicidal, and lead to morphological changes in the Candida yeast cell wall. Based on the use of limited proteomic screening and toxicity analysis in mutants, we show that Mycosidine activity is associated with glucose transport. This suggests that this first-in-class antifungal drug has a novel mechanism of action that deserves further study.

Abstract
In order to improve the potential of celastrol against non-small-cell lung cancer cells, the privileged structure, thiazolidinedione, was introduced into its C-20 carboxylic group with acetylpiperazine as a linker, and the thiazolidinedione-conjugated compounds 10a-10t were prepared. The target compounds were evaluated for their cytotoxic activities against the A549 cell line, and the results showed that most of the compounds 10a-10t displayed improved potency over celastrol, and compound 10b exhibited significant activity against the A549 cell line, with an IC50 value of 0.08 μM, which was 13.8-fold more potent than celastrol (IC50 = 1.10 μM). The mechanistic studies suggested that 10b could induce A549 cell apoptosis, as evidenced by Hoechst 33342 staining and annexin V-FITC/propidium iodide dual staining assays. Western blot analysis suggested that compound 10b could upregulate Bax expression, downregulate Bcl-2 expression, and activate the mitochondria-mediated apoptotic pathway. Furthermore, compound 10b could effectively inhibit tumor growth when tested in an A549 cell xenograft mouse model. Collectively, compound 10b is worthy of further investigation to support the discovery of effective agents against non-small-cell lung cancer.

Abstract
The renin angiotensin aldosterone system has a localized key regulatory action, especially in liver and body circulation. Furthermore, it accomplishes a significant role in the downregulation of the PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway that is involved in type II diabetes mellitus pathogenesis. The current study aimed to evaluate the effect of a synthetic pioglitazone analogue (benzenesulfonamide derivative) compared to the standard pioglitazone hypoglycemic drug on enhancing liver insulin sensitivity via ACE 2/Ang (1–7)/PI3K/AKT/mTOR in experimental STZ-induced diabetes. After the model was established, rats were distributed into the normal control group, diabetic group, pioglitazone group (20 mg/kg), and a benzenesulfonamide derivative group (20 mg/kg), with the last 2 groups receiving oral treatment for 14 consecutive days. Our results suggested enhancing liver insulin sensitivity against the ACE2/Ang (1–7)/PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway. Moreover, the synthetic compound produced a reduction in blood glucose levels, restored hyperinsulinemia back to normal, and enhanced liver glycogen deposition. In addition, it up regulated the ACE2/Ang (1–7)/PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway via increasing insulin receptor substrate 1 and 2 sensitivity to insulin, while it increased glucose transporter 2 expression in the rat pancreas. The study findings imply that the hypoglycemic effect of the benzenesulfonamide derivative is due to enhancing liver sensitivity to regulate blood glucose level via the ACE2/Ang (1–7)/PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway.

Abstract
Newly designed thiazolidine-2,4-diones 3–7a–c were synthesized, and their anticancer activities were screened against three cancer lines. They showed potent activities against HepG2 compared to the other HCT116 and MCF-7 tumor cell lines. Compounds 7c and 6c were detected as highly effective derivatives against MCF-7 (IC50 = 7.78 and 8.15 µM), HCT116 (IC50 = 5.77 and 7.11 µM) and HepG2 (IC50 = 8.82 and 8.99 µM). The highly effective derivatives 6a–c and 7a–c were tested against VERO normal cell lines. All derivatives were evaluated for their VEGFR-2 inhibitory actions and demonstrated high to low activities, with IC50 values varying from 0.08 to 0.93 µM. Moreover, derivatives 5a–c, 6a–c and 7a–c were assessed to verify their in vitro binding affinities to PPARγ and insulin-secreting activities. Finally, docking studies were performed to explore their affinities and binding modes toward both VEGFR-2 and PPARγ receptors.

Abstract
Diabetes is one of the four major non-communicable diseases, and appointed by the world health organization as the seventh leading cause of death worldwide. The scientists have turned over every rock in the corners of medical sciences in order to come up with better understanding and hence more effective treatments of diabetes. The continuous research on the subject has elucidated the role of immune disorders and inflammation as definitive factors in the trajectory of diabetes, assuring that blood glucose adjustments would result in a relief in the systemic stress leading to minimizing inflammation. On a parallel basis, microbial infections usually take advantage of immunity disorders and propagate creating a pro-inflammatory environment, all of which can be reversed by antimicrobial treatment. Standing at the crossroads between diabetes, immunity and infection, we aim in this review at projecting the interplay between immunity and diabetes, shedding the light on the overlapping playgrounds for the activity of some antimicrobial and anti-diabetic agents. Furthermore, we focused on the anti-diabetic drugs that can confer antimicrobial or anti-virulence activities.

Abstract
A series of novel substituted phenyl 1, 3-thiazolidin-4-one sulfonyl derivatives 5 (a-t) were synthesized and screened for their in-vitro anti-microbial and anti-viral activity. The result of the anti-microbial assay demonstrated compounds 5d, 5f, 5g, 5h, 5i, 5j showed prominent inhibitory activity against all the tested Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacterial strains, while compounds 5g, 5j, 5o, 5p, 5q showed significant activity against the entire set of fungal strains as compared to standard drug Ampicillin and Clotrimazole, respectively. The antimicrobial study revealed that compounds having electron-withdrawing groups showed significant antimicrobial potency. The most active antibacterial compound 5j showed potent inhibition of S. aureus DNA Gyrase enzyme as a possible mechanism of action for antimicrobial activity. Moreover, the antiviral testing of selected compounds showed considerable activity against Herpes simplex virus-1(KOS), Herpes simplex virus-2 (G), Herpes simplex virus-1(TK- KOS ACVr), Vaccinia virus, Human Coronavirus (229E), Reovirus-1, Sindbis virus, Coxsackie virus B4, Yellow Fever virus and Influenza A, B virus. Compounds 5h exhibited low anti-viral activity against HIV-1(strain IIIB) and HIV-2 (strain ROD). The study clearly outlined that synthesized compounds endowed with good antimicrobial property together with considerable antiviral activity.

Abstract
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), triggered by the severe acute respiratory syndrome-coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), may lead to extrapulmonary manifestations like diabetes mellitus (DM) and hyperglycemia, both predicting a poor prognosis and an increased risk of death. SARS-CoV-2 infects the pancreas through angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2), where it is highly expressed compared to other organs, leading to pancreatic damage with subsequent impairment of insulin secretion and development of hyperglycemia even in non-DM patients. Thus, this review aims to provide an overview of the potential link between COVID-19 and hyperglycemia as a risk factor for DM development in relation to DM pharmacotherapy. For that, a systematic search was done in the database of MEDLINE through Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed, Embase, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), China Biology Medicine (CBM), and Wanfang Data. Data obtained underline that SARS-CoV-2 infection in DM patients is more severe and associated with poor clinical outcomes due to preexistence of comorbidities and inflammation disorders. SARS-CoV-2 infection impairs glucose homeostasis and metabolism in DM and non-DM patients due to cytokine storm (CS) development, downregulation of ACE2, and direct injury of pancreatic β-cells. Therefore, the potent anti-inflammatory effect of diabetic pharmacotherapies such as metformin, pioglitazone, sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2Is), and dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP4) inhibitors may mitigate COVID-19 severity. In addition, some antidiabetic agents and also insulin may reduce SARS-CoV-2 infectivity and severity through the modulation of the ACE2 receptor expression. The findings presented here illustrate that insulin therapy might seem as more appropriate than other anti-DM pharmacotherapies in the management of COVID-19 patients with DM due to low risk of uncontrolled hyperglycemia and diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). From these findings, we could not give the final conclusion about the efficacy of diabetic pharmacotherapy in COVID-19; thus, clinical trial and prospective studies are warranted to confirm this finding and concern.

Abstract
Pathogenic Candida and infections caused by those species are now considered as a serious threat to public health. The treatment of candidiasis is significantly complicated by the increasing resistance of pathogenic strains to current treatments and the stagnant development of new antimycotic drugs. Many species, such as Candida auris, have a wide range of resistance mechanisms. Among the currently used synthetic and semi-synthetic antifungal drugs, the most effective are azoles, echinocandins, polyenes, nucleotide analogs, and their combinations. However, the use of probiotic microorganisms and/or the compounds they produce is quite promising, although underestimated by modern pharmacology, to control the spread of pathogenic Candida species.

Abstract
2,4-Thiazolidinedione (2,4-TZD) is a versatile pharmacophore, a privileged scaffold, and a remarkable sulphur-containing heterocyclic compound with diverse pharmacological activities. The multifarious biological activities, due to different mechanisms of action, low cost, and easy availability of 2,4-TZD impressed medicinal chemists to integrate this moiety to develop various lead compounds with diverse therapeutic actions. This resulted in the swift development in the last decade for generating different new potential molecules bearing 2,4-TZD. In this review, the authors attempt to shape and present the latest investigations (2012 onwards) going on in generating promising 2,4-TZD containing lead compounds. The data has been collected and analyzed to develop the structure-activity relationship (SAR). The SAR and active pharmacophores of various leads accountable for antidiabetic, anticancer, antimicrobial, and antioxidant activities have also been illustrated. This review also highlighted some of the important chemical synthetic routes for the preparation of various 2,4-TZD derivatives. This review will definitely serve as a useful source of structural information to medicinal chemists and may be utilized for the strategic design of potent 2,4-TZD derivatives in the future.

Abstract
The anticancer activity of novel thiazolidine-2,4-diones was evaluated against HepG2, HCT-116, and MCF-7 cells. MCF-7 was the most sensitive cell line to the cytotoxicity of the new derivatives. In particular, compounds 18, 12, 17, and 16 were found to be the most potent derivatives over all the tested compounds against the cancer cell lines HepG2, HCT116, and MCF-7, with IC50 = 9.16 ± 0.9, 8.98 ± 0.7, 5.49 ± 0.5 µM; 9.19 ± 0.5, 8.40 ± 0.7, 6.10 ± 0.4 µM; 10.78 ± 1.2, 8.87 ± 1.5, 7.08 ± 1.6 µM; and 10.87 ± 0.8, 9.05 ± 0.7, 7.32 ± 0.4 µM, respectively. Compounds 18 and 12 have nearly the same activities as sorafenib (IC50 = 9.18 ± 0.6, 5.47 ± 0.3, and 7.26 ± 0.3 µM, respectively), against HepG2 cells, but slightly lower activity against HCT116 cells and slightly higher activity against the MCF-7 cancer cell line. Also, these compounds displayed lower activities than doxorubicin against HepG2 and HCT-116 cells but higher activity against MCF-7 cells (IC50 = 7.94 ± 0.6, 8.07 ± 0.8, and 6.75 ± 0.4 µM, respectively). In contrast, compounds 17 and 16 exhibited lower activities than sorafenib against HepG2 and HCT116 cells, but nearly equipotent activity against the MCF-7 cancer cell line. Also, these compounds displayed lower activities than doxorubicin against the three cell lines. All the synthesized derivatives 7-18 were evaluated for their inhibitory activities against VEGFR-2. The tested compounds displayed high to medium inhibitory activity, with IC50 values ranging from 0.17 ± 0.02 to 0.27 ± 0.03 µM. Compounds 18, 12, 17, and 16 potently inhibited VEGFR-2 at IC50 values of 0.17 ± 0.02, 0.17 ± 0.02, 0.18 ± 0.02, and 0.18 ± 0.02 µM, respectively, which are nearly more than half of that of the IC50 value for sorafenib (0.10 ± 0.02 µM).

Ramaiah MJ, Karthikeyan D, Mathavan S, Yamajala RBRD, Ramachandran S, Vasavi PJ, Chandana NV. Synthesis, in vitro and structural aspects of benzothiazole analogs as anti-oxidants and potential neuroprotective agents. ENVIRONMENTAL TOXICOLOGY AND PHARMACOLOGY 2020; 79:103415. [PMID: 32470609 DOI: 10.1016/j.etap.2020.103415] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/06/2020] [Revised: 05/05/2020] [Accepted: 05/19/2020] [Indexed: 06/11/2023]
Abstract
Catalase, an important antioxidant enzyme, is known to have a neuroprotective role against neurodegenerative disorder. Earlier study has focussed on benzothiazole-triazole hybrid molecules that are larger in size and molecular weight and inhibit the amyloid β (Aβ)-catalase interaction thus aid in neuroprotection. Here we have synthesized the novel benzothiazole molecules with low molecular weight using One-pot methodology and assayed the neuroprotective effects of the synthesized compounds in the U87 MG cell line under H2O2 induced stressed condition and compared with other cell lines such as breast cancer (MCF-7) and macrophage (RAW-264.7) using cell viability assay. These analogs were found to enhance the neuronal cell viability and protect neuronal cells from the ROS mediated neuronal damage induced by H2O2. Furthermore, compounds 6a, 6b, 6c, 6d, and 7a modulate catalase and enhanced the catalase activity up to 90 % during the H2O2 exposure in the U87MG cell line. These analogs (6a, 6b, 6c and 6d) have exhibited strong binding energies of -7.39, -7.52, -6.5 and -7.1 as observed by molecular modeling studies using AutoDockTool-1.5.6. Lig Plot + program using potent analogs 6b and 6c and catalase enzyme indicated the presence of hydrophobic interactions in the catalytic site of catalase enzyme. Furthermore, a simulation study was conducted between ligand and catalase protein by DESMOND software that further strengthens these ligand and enzyme interactions. In silico ADMET study was conducted by the Swiss ADME program revealed the drug-likeliness of these analogs. The present study has identified benzothiazole analogs such as 6b, 6c and 6d have potential catalase modulating activity and is comparable with that of known drug Valproic acid, thus help in neuroprotection. This study can be further taken up for the in vivo animal model study for the possible therapy.

Abstract
Twelve benzylidene derivatives, one Baeyer-Villiger oxidative, six imine derivatives were successfully designed and synthesised from phyllanthone. In the search for potential new anti-diabetic agents, phyllanthone along with its benzylidene and oxidation analogues were evaluated for enzyme inhibition against α-glucosidase. In the benzylidene series, most analogues displayed stronger activity than the mother compound. Compound 1c revealed the strongest activity, outperforming the acarbose positive control with an IC50 value of 19.59 µM. Phyllanthone and its derivatives were then tested for cytotoxic activity against the K562 cell line. The imine analogues displayed the most powerful cytotoxic activity with 3cand 3d having IC50 values of 57.55 and 68.02 µM, respectively.

Abstract
Novel series of 5-benzylidenethiazolidine-2,4-dione derivatives 4a-c-8a-f were designed, synthesized and evaluated for anticancer activity against HepG2, HCT-116 and MCF-7 cell lines. MCF-7 was the most sensitive cell line to the influence of the new derivatives. In particular, compound 8f was found to be the most potent derivative overall the tested compounds against the three HepG2, HCT116 and MCF-7 cancer cell lines with IC50 = 11.19 ± 0.8, 8.99 ± 0.7 and 7.10 ± 0.4 µM respectively. Compound 8f exhibited lower activity than sorafenib, (IC50 = 9.18 ± 0.6, 8.37 ± 0.7 and 5.10 ± 0.4 µM respectively), against HepG2 and HCT116 but exhibited nearly the same activity against MCF-7 cancer cell lines respectively. Also, this compound displayed lower activity than doxorubicin, (IC50 = 7.94 ± 0.6, 8.07 ± 0.8 and 6.75 ± 0.4 µM respectively), against HepG2 and HCT116 but nearly the same activity against MCF-7cell lines respectively. The most active derivatives 6c,d,f,g and 8a-f were evaluated for their inhibitory activities against VEGFR-2. The elongation of the structures to have distal moieties enhanced anticancer and VEGFR-2 inhibitory activities as in compounds 8a-f. Among them, compounds 8f was found to be the most potent derivative that inhibited VEGFR-2 at IC50 value of 0.22 ± 0.02 µM, which is nearly the half as that of sorafenib IC50 value (0.10 ± 0.02 µM). Furthermore, molecular design was performed to investigate their binding mode and affinities towards VEGFR-2 receptor. The data obtained from docking studies were highly correlated with that obtained from the biological screening.

Abstract
AIM To develop novel compounds having potent anticancer and antibacterial activities. BACKGROUND Several studies have proved that benzylidene analogues of clinical 2,4-TZDs, such as troglitazone and ciglitazone, have more potent antiproliferative activity than their parent compounds. Literature studies also revealed that the attachment of more heterocyclic rings, containing nitrogen on 5th position of 2,4-TZD, can enhance the antimicrobial activity. Hence, attachment of various moieties on the benzylidene ring may produce safe and effective compounds in the future. OBJECTIVE The objective of the present study was to synthesize a set of novel benzylidene ring containing 5- and 3-substituted-2,4-thiazolidinedione derivatives and evaluate them for their anticancer and antibacterial activity. METHODS The synthesized compounds were characterized by IR, NMR, mass, and elemental studies. The in vitro cytotoxicity studies were performed for human breast cancer (MCF-7) and human lung cancer (A549) cells and HepG2 cell-line and compared to standard drug doxorubicin by MTT assay. Antimicrobial activity of the synthesized 2,4-thiazolidinediones derivatives was carried out using the cup plate method with slight modification. RESULTS The results obtained showed that TZ-5 and TZ-13 exhibited good antiproliferative activity against A549 cancer cell-line, whereas TZ-10 exhibited moderate antiproliferative activity against HepG2 cell-line when compared to standard drug doxorubicin. TZ-5 also exhibited reasonable activity against the MCF-7 cell-line with doxorubicin as standard. TZ-4, TZ-5, TZ-6, TZ-7, and TZ- 16 exhibited remarkable antibacterial activity against Gram positive and moderate activity against Gram negative bacteria with the standard drug ciprofloxacin. CONCLUSION Attachment of heterocyclic rings containing nitrogen as the hetero atom improves the anticancer and antimicrobial potential. Attachment of electronegative elements like halogens can also enhance the antimicrobial activity. Further structure modifications may lead to the development of more potent 2,4-TZD leads that can be evaluated for further advanced studies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cancer is the second leading cause of mortality worldwide. Despite several advances made in the treatment strategies, the cure for cancer remains still a challenge. Currently used treatment modalities pose several side effects and remain ineffective in the later stages. Thiazolidinediones (TZDs) have been shown to possess anti-cancer activity in several in vitro models. OBJECTIVES The objective of this study was to assess the effect of novel synthesized thiazolidinedione derivatives on three selected cancer cell lines viz., human breast adenocarcinoma cell line (MCF-7), lung adenocarcinoma (A549) and colorectal carcinoma (HT29). This study also aimed to evaluate the anti-inflammatory and DNA binding activity of the synthesized derivatives. METHODS The synthesized thiazolidinedione derivatives were screened for their in vitro anti-cancer activity on the human breast adenocarcinoma cell line (MCF-7), lung adenocarcinoma (A549) and colorectal carcinoma (HT29) using the Methyl Thaizolyl Tetrazolium (MTT) Assay. They were also evaluated for in vitro antiinflammatory activity using albumin denaturation method, DNA binding activity and hemocompatibility. RESULTS Compounds 5a, 5b, 5d, 6c and 6d showed IC50 of 30.19, 41.56, 65.97, 60.16 and 50.41μM respectively on breast adenocarcinoma (MCF-7), IC50 of 49.75, 51.42, 65.43, 61.94 and 56.80μM on lung adenocarcinoma (A549) and 38.11, 45.58, 71.24, 53.15 and 51.25μM on colorectal carcinoma (HT29). In the hemolysis assay, compounds 5a and 5b were found to be nontoxic and nonhemolytic to human erythrocytes. Five compounds possessed significant anticancer and anti-inflammatory activity. Three of them are Mannich bases, whereas the remaining two are aryl acyl derivatives. CONCLUSION The in vitro results (anticancer and anti-inflammatory) showed that the 4-chloro anilinomethyl substitution at third position and thiophenoethenyl at the fifth position of thiozolidinedione (5a) emerged as the most effective derivative on all the tested cancer cell lines. A higher DNA binding affinity of the test compounds was also found.

Abstract
Breast cancer is a major medical threat which cannot be sufficiently addressed by current therapies because of spontaneous or acquired treatment resistance. Besides, triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) tumors do not respond to targeted therapies, thus new therapeutic strategies are needed. In this context, we designed and prepared new desulfured troglitazone (TGZ)-derived molecules and evaluated them in vitro for their anti-proliferative activity, with a special focus on triple-negative breast cancer cell lines. Optimization of the synthetic strategies and deracemization of the lead compound were performed to give highly active compound 10 with low-micromolar potency. Further studies revealed that this compound triggers apoptosis rather than cell cycle arrest as observed with TGZ.

Abstract
TZDs, an important pharmacophore in the treatment of diabetes. Various analog-based synthetic strategies and biological significance are discussed. Clinical studies using TZDs along with other antidiabetic agents are also highlighted. SAR has been discussed to suggest the interactions between derivatives and receptor sites. Pyrazole, chromone, and acid-based TZDs can be considered as potential lead molecules.
Diabetes or diabetes mellitus is a complex or polygenic disorder, which is characterized by increased levels of glucose (hyperglycemia) and deficiency in insulin secretion or resistance to insulin over an elongated period in the liver and peripheral tissues. Thiazolidine-2,4-dione (TZD) is a privileged scaffold and an outstanding heterocyclic moiety in the field of drug discovery, which provides various opportunities in exploring this moiety as an antidiabetic agent. In the past few years, various novel synthetic approaches had been undertaken to synthesize different derivatives to explore them as more potent antidiabetic agents with devoid of side effects (i.e., edema, weight gain, and bladder cancer) of clinically used TZD (pioglitazone and rosiglitazone). In this review, an effort has been made to summarize the up to date research work of various synthetic strategies for TZD derivatives as well as their biological significance and clinical studies of TZDs in combination with other category as antidiabetic agents. This review also highlights the structure-activity relationships and the molecular docking studies to convey the interaction of various synthesized novel derivatives with its receptor site.

Abstract
Thiazolidinedione is a five-membered heterocycle that is widely used in drug discovery endeavors. In this study, we report the design, synthesis, and biological evaluation of a series of thiazolidinedione-based HDAC6 inhibitors. In particular, compound 6b exerts an excellent inhibitory activity against HDAC6 with an IC50 value of 21 nM, displaying a good HDAC6 selectivity over HDAC1. Compound 6b dose-dependently induces the acetylation level of α-tubulin via inhibition of HDAC6 in human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cell line. Moreover, compound 6b efficiently reverses methamphetamine-induced morphology changes of SH-SY5Y cells via regulating acetylation landscape of α-tubulin. Collectively, compound 6b represents a novel HDAC6-isoform selective inhibitor and demonstrates promising therapeutic potential for the treatment of methamphetamine addiction.

Abstract
Water molecules play a vital role in efficient drug binding to its target. Thiazolidinediones (TZDs), a class of anti-diabetic drugs, are widely used for treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus. In the present study, the possible contribution of water molecules to the binding of TZDs to catalase, a potential target in the liver, was investigated by different experimental and theoretical methods. These studies indicated that TZDs could significantly improve the catalase catalytic function with a significant contribution from water molecules. As a probe for the differential number of released water molecules during the catalase transition from E to E* states, the activity of TZDs-catalase complexes was demonstrated to be mainly dependent on water activity. However, free catalase decomposed the substrate more independently. In addition, the spectrofluorimetry studies showed that the binding of TZDs to catalase needed the release of water molecules from the enzyme's binding pocket. The thermodynamic studies indicated that the binding enthalpy and entropy of TZDs for catalase were decreased with lower water activity. The favorable process contributes to release of water molecules from the binding pocket through the formation of hydrophobic interactions between catalase and TZDs in an enthalpic manner. Molecular docking simulations confirmed that the depletion of water molecules from the binding cavity is essential for effective interactions between TZDs and catalase.

Abstract
Series of new thiazolidine-2,4-dione-based chlorophenylthiosemicarbazone hybrids (17–40) were synthesized by the reaction of condensation chlorophenylthiosemicarbazides with formylphenyl 2-(2,4-dioxothiazolidin-5-yl/ylidene)acetates. New compounds were tested on reference strains of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. The antibacterial activity of target compounds was determined by broth dilution method. Most active compounds possess minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) = 3.91 mg/L. These compounds were non-toxic at concentrations close to their antibacterial effect. The antibacterial activity of some compounds was similar to or higher than the activity of used reference drugs such as oxacillin and cefuroxime. The structure–activity relationships (SARs) analysis collectively suggests that at least two different molecular mechanisms of their antibacterial activity should be expected.
