RESUMO

Herein, we report the design and synthesis of two series of pyrazole-tethered sulfamoyl phenyl acetamides and pyrazole-tethered sulfamoyl phenyl benzamides. The synthesized compounds were investigated for inhibiting two human carbonic anhydrases, human carbonic anhydrases (hCA) I and II, and those of the bacterial pathogen Mycobacterium tuberculosis, mtCA 1-3. The results indicate that, among the synthesized compounds, pyrazoles with 4-aminobenzene sulfonamide were more selective toward hCA I and II over mtCAs, and compounds with 3-aminobenzene sulfonamide were selective toward mtCA 1-3 over hCA I, II. Compound 6g showed significant and selective inhibition toward hCA I and II, with Ki values of 0.0366 and 0.0310 µM, respectively. Compound 5g exhibited the best inhibition toward mtCA 2, with a Ki value of 0.0617 µM. Among the benzamides, compound 9b exhibited significant activity toward mtCA 2, with a Ki value of 0.0696 µM. Selectivity of these compounds was further supported by docking studies. When tested for antitubercular activity, many compounds showed moderate to good inhibition against the Mtb H37Rv strain, with minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values in the range of 4-128 µg/mL.

RESUMO

The urgent development of newer alternatives has been deemed a panacea for tackling emerging antimicrobial resistance effectively. Herein, we report the design, synthesis, and biological evaluation of 1,3-diaryl substituted pyrazole-based urea and thiourea derivatives as antimicrobial agents. Preliminary screening results revealed that compound 7a (3,4-dichlorophenyl derivative) exhibited potent activity against S. aureus (MIC = 0.25 µg mL-1) and compound 7j (2,4-difluorophenyl derivative) against Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MIC = 1 µg mL-1). Compounds 7a and 7j were non-toxic to Vero cells with a favorable selectivity index of 40 and 200, respectively, and demonstrated good microsomal stability. Compound 7a exhibited equipotent activity (MIC = 0.25 µg mL-1) against various multidrug-resistant strains of S. aureus, which include various strains of MRSA and VRSA, and elicited bacteriostatic properties. In an enzymatic assay, 7a effectively inhibited DNA gyrase supercoiling activity at a concentration of 8 times MIC. Further, molecular modeling studies suggested that compound 7a binds at the active site of DNA gyrase with good affinity.

RESUMO

In our continued efforts to find potential chemotherapeutics active against drug-resistant (DR) Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), causative agent of Tuberculosis (TB) and to curb the current burdensome treatment regimen, herein we describe the synthesis and biological evaluation of urea and thiourea variants of 5-phenyl-3-isoxazolecarboxylic acid methyl esters as promising anti-TB agent. Majority of the tested compounds displayed potent in vitro activity not only against drug-susceptible (DS) Mtb H37Rv but also against drug-resistant (DR) Mtb. Cell viability test against Vero cells deemed these compounds devoid of significant toxicity. 3,4-Dichlorophenyl derivative (MIC 0.25 µg/mL) and 4-chlorophenyl congener (MIC 1 µg/mL) among urea and thiourea libraries respectively exhibited optimum potency. Lead optimization resulted in the identification of 1,4-linked analogue of 3,4-dichlorophenyl urea derivative demonstrating improved selectivity. Further, in silico study complemented with previously proposed prodrug like attributes of isoxazole esters. Taken together, this molecular hybridization approach presents a new chemotype having potential to be translated into an alternate anti-Mtb agent.

RESUMO

The efficacy of successful cancer therapies is frequently hindered by the development of drug resistance in the tumor. The term 'drug resistance' is used to illustrate the decreased effectiveness of a drug in curing a disease or alleviating the symptoms of the patient. This phenomenon helps tumors to survive the damage caused by a specific drug or group of drugs. In this context, studying the mechanisms of drug resistance and applying this information to design customized treatment regimens can improve therapeutic efficacy as well as the curative outcome. Over the years, numerous Multidrug Resistance (MDR) mechanisms have been recognized and tremendous effort has been put into developing agents to address them. The integration of data emerging from the elucidation of molecular and biochemical pathways and specific tumor-associated factors has shown tremendous promise within the oncology community for improving patient outcomes. In this review, we provide an overview of the utility of these molecular and biochemical signaling processes as well as tumor-associated factors associated with MDR, for the rational selection of cancer treatment strategies.
