Synthesis, Biological Evaluation, and Docking Studies of Open-chain Carbohydrate Amides as Acetylcholinesterase Inhibitors. Med Chem 2022; 19:570-577.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION:
Alzheimer’s disease is a multifactorial syndrome, which is not yet fully understood, causing memory loss, dementia, and, ultimately, death. Acetylcholinesterase inhibitors are the mainstay drugs that are used in disease-symptomatic treatment. In this work, we report a new synthetic route yielding sugar amides as low to moderate acetylcholinesterase inhibitors.
METHOD:
Commercially available diacetone glucose was converted into perbenzyl D-glucono-1,4-lactone, which reacted with aromatic or aliphatic amines to afford the corresponding new amides in a high isolated yield. Docking studies of the most promising hydroxybutylamide and benzylamide were performed to assign binding interactions with acetylcholinesterase and determine the key features for bioactivity.
RESULT:
The inhibitors are accommodated in enzyme gorge, blocking the access to Ser203 mainly due to π-π stacking interactions of sugar benzyl groups with the aromatic gorge residues, Tyr337 and Tyr341 for both inhibitors and Trp439 only for the hydroxybutylamide.
CONCLUSION:
Bonding is also significant through sugar interaction with the residues Tyr124 and Ser125-OH in both inhibitors. Flexibility of these open-chain structures seems to be quite relevant for the observed binding to acetylcholinesterase.

Abstract
The self-assembling processes underlining the capabilities of facially differentiated ("Janus") polycationic amphiphilic cyclodextrins (paCDs) as non-viral gene nanocarriers have been investigated by a pluridisciplinary approach. Three representative Janus paCDs bearing a common tetradecahexanoyl multitail domain at the secondary face and differing in the topology of the cluster of amino groups at the primary side were selected for this study. All of them compact pEGFP-C3 plasmid DNA and promote transfection in HeLa and MCF-7 cells, both in absence and in presence of human serum. The electrochemical and structural characteristics of the paCD-pDNA complexes (CDplexes) have been studied by using zeta potential, DLS, SAXS, and cryo-TEM. paCDs and pDNA, when assembled in CDplexes, render effective charges that are lower than the nominal ones. The CDplexes show a self-assembling pattern corresponding to multilamellar lyotropic liquid crystal phases, characterized by a lamellar stacking of bilayers of the CD-based vectors with anionic pDNA sandwiched among them. When exposed to human serum, either in the absence or in the presence of pDNA, the surface of the cationic CD-based vector becomes coated by a protein corona (PC) whose composition has been analyzed by nanoLC-MS/MS. Some of the CDplexes herein studied showed moderate-to-high transfection levels in HeLa and MCF-7 cancer cells combined with moderate-to-high cell viabilities, as determined by FACS and MTT reduction assays. The ensemble of data provides a detail picture of the paCD-pDNA-PC association processes and a rational base to exploit the protein corona for targeted gene delivery on future in vivo applications.

Abstract
The conformational properties and aggregation behavior of two selectively modified cyclomaltooligosaccharides (cyclodextrins, CDs) containing a double-linked 1,8-dimethylnaphthalene cap-like moiety at the secondary face, namely, 2(I),3(I)-O-(1,8-dimetylnaphthalene-α,α'-diyl)-per-O-Me-α- and -γ-cyclodextrins (NmαCD and NmγCD, respectively), in water and in organic solvents were investigated. Both CD derivatives self-associated in water to form dimer species, but the characteristics of the dimerization process and of the resulting dimer strongly depended on the size of the macrocycle. Dimerization constants, thermodynamic parameters upon association, and information about the preferred conformations of the monomer and dimer CD structures were obtained by using NMR, UV-vis, steady-state and time-resolved fluorescence, and circular dichroism experimental techniques, as well as molecular mechanics (MM) and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. The complexation of 1,8-di(methoxymethyl)naphathalene (oNy) and the heteroassociation of both NmCDs with their permethylated CD partners (mCDs), lacking the aromatic cap, were examined. In addition, the influence of the size of the chromophore moiety on the thermodynamics of self-association was also assessed by comparison of the results obtained for the new naphthalene derivatives with those of the 2(I),3(I)-O-(1,2-xylylene)-modified CD analogues (XmCDs).

Abstract
Cyclomaltooligosaccharides (cyclodextrins, CDs) comprise a family of biocompatible cage devices which have been developed during the last thirty years in order to improve the solubility, stability and the bioavailability of drugs. Chemical modification usually improves the solubility and solubilisation properties and generally alleviates the renal toxicity of native cyclodextrins. Red cell lysis, which is ascribed to membrane interactions is also monitored. Selective and commercially accessible functionalisation processes are now available which avoid the problems of heterogeneity commonly found with the existing industrial approaches. These allow a convenient access to modular structures which could fit the molecular characteristics of the host ("bouquet" and dimeric CDs). Grafting of saccharide ligands which are recognised by membrane proteins is another promising aspect for the transport and targeting of drugs and the control of cell interactions. Several topological aspects of ligand presentation toward a membrane lectin have been assessed with concanavalin A and mannosyl CD-dendrimers and the results have been extended to molecular targeting to macrophages. Advantage has been taken of the autoassociation properties of amphiphilic derivatives of cyclodextrins for the preparation of stable nanoparticles of interest for the transport and targeting of drugs and macromolecular systems.

Abstract
A practical synthesis of polyhydroxylated 6-oxa-nor-tropanes incorporating the essential structural features of calystegine B(2) from 5-deoxy-5-thioureido and 5-ureido-L-idofuranose precursors is presented. The methodology relies on the ability of pseudoamide-type nitrogen atoms (thiourea, urea, and carbamate) to undergo nucleophilic addition to the masked aldehyde group of the monosaccharide. The generated hemiaminal functionality may further undergo in situ intramolecular glycosidation to give the bicyclic aminoacetal compounds, the whole process being favored by the anomeric effect. A series of derivatives bearing different substituents at nitrogen has been prepared and screened against several glycosidases in comparison with xylonojirimycin-type piperidine analogues. Interestingly, strong and highly specific inhibition of bovine liver beta-glucosidase was observed for 6-oxacalystegine B(2) analogues incorporating aromatic pseudoaglyconic groups. On the basis of these data, a 1-azasugar inhibition mode is proposed for this family of glycomimetics.

Abstract
The binding properties of multitopic sugar thiourea receptors toward dicarboxylate and monosaccharide guests have been examined taking glutarate and octyl beta-D-glucopyranoside as model ligands. For the anionic hydrogen bond acceptor, both the complex stoichiometry and the association constants (K(as)) were found to be strongly dependent on the relative disposition of recognition elements in the host. In contrast, for the glucoside guest a 1:1 stoichiometry was observed in all cases, the K(as) values being largely independent of the unbound state provided that geometrically equivalent supramolecular topologies can be achieved.

Abstract
A series of aminoketalic castanospermine analogues incorporating a stereoelectronically anchored axial hydroxy group at the pseudoanomeric stereocenter (C-5) have been synthesized to satisfy the need for glucosidase inhibitors that are highly selective for alpha-glucosidases. The polyhydroxylated bicyclic system was built from readily available hexofuranose derivatives through a synthetic scheme that involved (i) the construction of a five-membered cyclic (thio)carbamate or (thio)urea moiety at the nonreducing end and (ii) the intramolecular nucleophilic addition of the heterocyclic thiocarbamic nitrogen atom to the masked aldehyde group of the monosaccharide. A biological screening of the resulting reducing 2-oxa- and 2-azaindolizidines against several glycosidase enzymes is reported.

Abstract
6,6'-Dideoxy-6,6'-diisothiocyanato-alpha,alpha'-trehalose (4), 6-deoxy-6-isothiocyanato-alpha-D-fructo-furanose beta-D-fructopyranose 1,2':2,1'-dianhydride (11), 6,6'-dideoxy-6,6'-diisothiocyanatosucrose (16), and per(6-deoxy-6-isothiocyanato)-cyclomaltohexaose (23), -cyclomaltoheptaose (27), and -cyclomaltooctaose (31) have been prepared in high yield by reaction of the corresponding amino sugars with thiophosgene. In the absence of base, all isothiocyanates were stable and could be stored and acetylated without decomposition. In the presence of triethylamine, 6,6'-dideoxy-6,6'-diisothiocyanato-alpha,alpha'-trehalose underwent intramolecular cyclisation involving HO-4 to give the corresponding bis(cyclic thiocarbamate). The product of cyclisation at a single glucopyranosyl unit was obtained in the treatment of the above diisothiocyanate with mixed (H+, HO-) ion-exchange resin. Under identical reaction conditions, 6,6'-dideoxy-6,6'-diisothiocyanatosucrose yielded exclusively the product of intramolecular cyclisation at the D-glucopyranosyl moiety, while derivatives of alpha-D-fructofuranose beta-D-fructopyranose 1,2':2,1'-dianhydride and cyclomaltooligosaccharides remained unchanged.
