Abstract
Recently, we have reported a series of isatin hydrazone, two of them, namely, 3-((2,6-dichlorobenzylidene)hydrazono)indolin-2-one (1) and 3-((2-chloro-6-fluorobenzylidene)hydrazono)indolin-2-one (2) having potent cytotoxicity, showing cyclin-dependent kinases (CDK2) inhibitory activity and bearing recommended drug likeness properties. Since both compounds (1 and 2) showed inhibitory activity against CDK2, we assumed it would also have multiple receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) inhibitory activity. Considering those points, here, above-mentioned two isatin hydrazone 1 and 2 were synthesized using previously reported method for further investigation of their potency on RTKs (EGFR, VEGFR-2 and FLT-3) inhibitory activity. As expected, Compound 1 exhibited excellent inhibitory activity against epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR, IC50 = 0.269 µM), vascular epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (VEGFR-2, IC50 = 0.232 µM) and FMS-like tyrosine kinase-3 (FLT-3, IC50 = 1.535 µM) tyrosine kinases. On the other hand, Compound 2 also exhibited excellent inhibitory activity against EGFR (IC50 = 0.369 µM), VEGFR-2 (IC50 = 0.266 µM) and FLT-3 (IC50 = 0.546 µM) tyrosine kinases. A molecular docking study with EGFR, VEGFR-2 and FLT-3 kinase suggested that both compounds act as type I ATP competitive inhibitors against EGFR and VEGFR-2, and type II ATP non-competitive inhibitors against FLT-3.

Ma Z, Li R, Hu R, Deng X, Xu Y, Zheng W, Yi J, Wang Y, Chen C. Brucella abortus BspJ Is a Nucleomodulin That Inhibits Macrophage Apoptosis and Promotes Intracellular Survival of Brucella. Front Microbiol 2020; 11:599205. [PMID: 33281799 PMCID: PMC7688787 DOI: 10.3389/fmicb.2020.599205] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/26/2020] [Accepted: 10/23/2020] [Indexed: 12/11/2022] Open
Abstract
To date, a variety of Brucella effector proteins have been found to mediate host cell secretion, autophagy, inflammation, and other signal pathways, but nuclear effector proteins have not yet been reported. We identified the first Brucella nucleomodulin, BspJ, and we screened out the BspJ interaction host proteins NME/NM23 nucleoside diphosphate kinase 2 (NME2) and creatine kinase B (CKB) through yeast two-hybrid and co-immunoprecipitation assays. These proteins are related to the host cell energy synthesis, metabolism, and apoptosis pathways. Brucella nucleomodulin BspJ will decrease the expression level of NME2 and CKB. In addition, BspJ gene deletion strains promoted the apoptosis of macrophages and reduced the intracellular survival of Brucella in host cells. In short, we found nucleomodulin BspJ may directly or indirectly regulate host cell apoptosis through the interaction with NME2 and CKB by mediating energy metabolism pathways in response to the intracellular circulation of Brucella infection, but the mechanism needs further study.

[PMID: 28955956 PMCID: PMC5613768 DOI: 10.1016/j.bbrep.2016.08.020] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/04/2016] [Revised: 08/15/2016] [Accepted: 08/18/2016] [Indexed: 10/29/2022] Open
Abstract
There are enormous evidences and previous reports standpoint that the enzyme of glyoxylate pathway malate synthase G (MSG) is a potential virulence factor in several pathogenic organisms, including Brucella melitensis 16M. Where the lack of crystal structures for best candidate proteins like MSG of B. melitensis 16M creates big lacuna to understand the molecular pathogenesis of brucellosis. In the present study, we have constructed a 3-D structure of MSG of Brucella melitensis 16M in MODELLER with the help of crystal structure of Mycobacterium tuberculosis malate synthase (PDB ID: 2GQ3) as template. The stereo chemical quality of the restrained model was evaluated by SAVES server; remarkably we identified the catalytic functional core domain located at 4th cleft with conserved catalytic amino acids, start at ILE 59 to VAL 586 manifest the function of the protein. Furthermore, virtual screening and docking results reveals that best leadmolecules binds at the core domain pocket of MSG catalytic residues and these ligand leads could be the best prospective inhibitors to treat brucellosis.
