C-2 derivatized 8-sulfonamidoquinolines as antibacterial compounds. Bioorg Med Chem 2021; 29:115837. [PMID: 33223463 DOI: 10.1016/j.bmc.2020.115837] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/03/2020] [Revised: 10/27/2020] [Accepted: 10/30/2020] [Indexed: 11/22/2022]
Abstract
A series of C-2 derivatized 8-sulfonamidoquinolines were evaluated for their antibacterial activity against the common mastitis causative pathogens Streptococcus uberis, Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli, both in the presence and absence of supplementary zinc (50 µM ZnSO4). The vast majority of compounds tested were demonstrated to be significantly more active against S. uberis when in the presence of supplementary zinc (MICs as low as 0.125 µg/mL were observed in the presence of 50 µM ZnSO4). Compounds 5, 34-36, 39, 58, 79, 82, 94 and 95 were shown to display the greatest antibacterial activity against S. aureus (MIC ≤ 8 µg/mL; both in the presence and absence of supplementary zinc), while compounds 56, 58 and 66 were demonstrated to also exhibit activity against E. coli (MIC ≤ 16 µg/mL; under all conditions). Compounds 56, 58 and 66 were subsequently confirmed to be bactericidal against all three mastitis pathogens studied, with MBCs (≥3log10 CFU/mL reduction) of ≤ 32 µg/mL (in both the presence and absence of 50 µM ZnSO4). To validate the sanitizing activity of compounds 56, 58 and 66, a quantitative suspension disinfection (sanitizer) test was performed. Sanitizing activity (>5log10 CFU/mL reduction in 5 min) was observed against both S. uberis and E. coli at compound concentrations as low as 1 mg/mL (compounds 56, 58 and 66), and against S. aureus at 1 mg/mL (compound 58); thereby validating the potential of compounds 56, 58 and 66 to function as topical sanitizers designed explicitly for use in non-human applications.

Abstract
A series of substituted sulfonamide bioisosteres of 8-hydroxyquinoline were evaluated for their antibacterial activity against the common mastitis causative pathogens Streptococcus uberis, Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli, both in the presence and absence of supplementary zinc. Compounds 9a-e, 10a-c, 11a-e, 12 and 13 were demonstrated to have MICs of 0.0625 µg/mL against S. uberis in the presence of 50 µM ZnSO4. Against S. aureus compounds 9g (MIC 4 µg/mL) and 11d (MIC 8 µg/mL) showed the greatest activity, whereas all compounds were found to be inactive against E. coli (MIC > 256 µg/mL); again in the presence of 50 µM ZnSO4. All compounds were demonstrated to be significantly less active in the absence of supplementary zinc. Compound 9g was subsequently confirmed to be bactericidal, with an MBC (≥3log10 cfu/mL reduction) of 0.125 µg/mL against S. uberis in the presence of 50 µM ZnSO4. To validate the sanitising activity of compound 9g in the presence of supplementary zinc, a quantitative suspension disinfection (sanitizer) test was performed. In this preliminary test, sanitizing activity (>5log10 reduction of CFU/mL in 5 min) was observed against S. uberis for compound 9g at concentrations as low as 1 mg/mL, validating the potential of this compound to function as a topical sanitizer against the major environmental mastitis-causing microorganism S. uberis.

Abstract
Alzheimer's Disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder that effects 50 million people worldwide. In this review, AD pathology and the development of novel therapeutic agents targeting AD were fully discussed. In particular, common approaches to prevent Aβ production and/or accumulation in the brain including α-secretase activators, specific γ-secretase modulators and small molecules BACE1 inhibitors were reviewed. Additionally, natural-origin bioactive compounds that provide AD therapeutic advances have been introduced. Considering AD is a multifactorial disease, the therapeutic potential of diverse multi target-directed ligands (MTDLs) that combine the efficacy of cholinesterase (ChE) inhibitors, MAO (monoamine oxidase) inhibitors, BACE1 inhibitors, phosphodiesterase 4D (PDE4D) inhibitors, for the treatment of AD are also reviewed. This article also highlights descriptions on the regulator of serotonin receptor (5-HT), metal chelators, anti-aggregants, antioxidants and neuroprotective agents targeting AD. Finally, current computational methods for evaluating the structure-activity relationships (SAR) and virtual screening (VS) of AD drugs are discussed and evaluated.

Abstract
Protein misfolding and aggregation have been associated with several human disorders, including Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s and Huntington’s diseases, as well as senile systemic amyloidosis and Type II diabetes. However, there is no current disease-modifying therapy available for the treatment of these disorders. In spite of extensive academic, pharmaceutical, medicinal and clinical research, a complete mechanistic model for this family of diseases is still lacking. In this review, we primarily discuss the different types of small molecular entities which have been used for the inhibition of the aggregation process of different amyloidogenic proteins under diseased conditions. These include small peptides, polyphenols, inositols, quinones and their derivatives, and metal chelator molecules. In recent years, these groups of molecules have been extensively studied using in vitro, in vivo and computational models to understand their mechanism of action and common structural features underlying the process of inhibition. A salient feature found to be instrumental in the process of inhibition is the balance between the aromatic unit that functions as the amyloid recognition unit and the hydrophilic amyloid breaker unit. The establishment of structure–function relationship for amyloid-modifying therapies by the various functional entities should serve as an important step toward the development of efficient therapeutics.

Abstract
This work reports the crystal structure of [(Z)-2-((E)-1-{6-[1-({[amino(sulfanidyl-κS)methylidene]amino}imino-κN)ethyl]pyridin-2-yl-κN}ethylidene)-1-cyanohydrazinido-κN(1)]copper(II), [Cu(C11H11N7S)], the first description of a copper(II) complex of 2,6-diacetylpyridine bis(thiosemicarbazone) showing partial conversion of a thioamide group to a nitrile group. The asymmetric ligand coordinates to the metal centre in an N,N',N'',S-tetradentate manner via the pyridine N atom, an imine N atom, the hydrazinide N atom and the sulfanidyl S atom, displaying a square-planar geometry. Ligand coordination results in two five-membered chelate rings and one six-membered chelate ring, and in crystal packing based on N-H···N hydrogen bonds of the cyanohydrazinide and hydrazinecarbothioamidate arms of the ligand. The correlation between the partial conversion upon metal complexation, H2S release and possible effects on the activity of bis(thiosemicarbazone)s as drug prototypes for Alzheimer's disease is also discussed.

Abstract
Mounting evidence suggests a pivotal role of metal imbalances in protein misfolding and amyloid diseases. As such, metal ions represent a promising therapeutic target. In this context, the synthesis of chelators that also contain complementary functionalities to combat the multifactorial nature of neurodegenerative diseases is a highly topical issue. We report two new 8-hydroxyquinoline-appended cyclodextrins and highlight their multifunctional properties, including their Cu(II) and Zn(II) binding abilities, and capacity to act as antioxidants and metal-induced antiaggregants. In particular, the latter property has been applied in the development of an effective assay that exploits the formation of amyloid fibrils when β-lactoglobulin A is heated in the presence of metal ions.

Abstract
Recent investigations have rekindled interest in 8-hydroxyquinolines as therapeutic agents for cancer, Alzheimer's disease, and other neurodegenerative disorders. Three new β-cyclodextrin conjugates of 8-hydroxyquinolines and their copper(II) and zinc(II) complexes have been synthesized and characterized spectroscopically. In addition to improving aqueous solubility, due to the presence of the cyclodextrin moiety, the hybrid systems have interesting characteristics including antioxidant activity, and their copper(II) complexes are efficient superoxide dismutase (SOD) mimics. The ligands and their copper(II) complexes show low cytotoxicity, attributed to the presence of the cyclodextrin moiety. These compounds have potential as therapeutic agents in diseases related both to metal dyshomeostasis and oxidative stress.

Abstract
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder that accounts for the major cause of dementia, and the increasing worldwide prevalence of AD is a major public health concern. Increasing epidemiological studies suggest that diet and nutrition might be important modifiable risk factors for AD. Dietary supplementation of antioxidants, B vitamins, polyphenols, and polyunsaturated fatty acids are beneficial to AD, and consumptions of fish, fruits, vegetables, coffee, and light-to-moderate alcohol reduce the risk of AD. However, many of the results from randomized controlled trials are contradictory to that of epidemiological studies. Dietary patterns summarizing an overall diet are gaining momentum in recent years. Adherence to a healthy diet, the Japanese diet, and the Mediterranean diet is associated with a lower risk of AD. This paper will focus on the evidence linking many nutrients, foods, and dietary patterns to AD.

Resveratrol inhibits β-amyloid-induced neuronal apoptosis through regulation of SIRT1-ROCK1 signaling pathway. PLoS One 2013; 8:e59888.

Abstract
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is characterized by the accumulation of β-amyloid peptide (Aβ) and loss of neurons. Recently, a growing body of evidences have indicated that as a herbal compound naturally derived from grapes, resveratrol modulates the pathophysiology of AD, however, with a largely unclear mechanism. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the protection of resveratrol against the neurotoxicity of β-amyloid peptide 25–35 (Aβ25–35) and further explore its underlying mechanism in the present study. PC12 cells were injuried by Aβ25–35, and resveratrol at different concentrations was added into the culture medium. We observed that resveratrol increased cell viability through the 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) colorimetric assays. Flow cytometry indicated the reduction of cell apoptosis by resveratrol. Moreover, resveratrol also stabilized the intercellular Ca2+ homeostasis and attenuated Aβ25–35 neurotoxicity. Additionally, Aβ25–35-suppressed silent information regulator 1 (SIRT1) activity was significantly reversed by resveratrol, resulting in the downregulation of Rho-associated kinase 1 (ROCK1). Our results clearly revealed that resveratrol significantly protected PC12 cells and inhibited the β-amyloid-induced cell apoptosis through the upregulation of SIRT1. Moreover, as a downstream signal molecule, ROCK1 was negatively regulated by SIRT1. Taken together, our study demonstrated that SIRT1-ROCK1 pathway played a critical role in the pathomechanism of AD.
