RESUMO

Sirtuin 2 (SIRT2) is a member of the sirtuin protein family, which includes lysine deacylases that are NAD+-dependent and organize several biological processes. Different forms of cancer have been associated with dysregulation of SIRT2 activity. Hence, identifying potent inhibitors for SIRT2 has piqued considerable attention in the drug discovery community. In the current study, the Natural Products Atlas (NPAtlas) database was mined to hunt potential SIRT2 inhibitors utilizing in silico techniques. Initially, the performance of the employed docking protocol to anticipate ligand-SIRT2 binding mode was assessed according to the accessible experimental data. Based on the predicted docking scores, the most promising NPAtlas molecules were selected and submitted to molecular dynamics (MD) simulations, followed by binding energy computations. Based on the MM-GBSA binding energy estimations over a 200 ns MD course, three NPAtlas compounds, namely NPA009578, NPA006805, and NPA001884, were identified with better ΔGbinding towards SIRT2 protein than the native ligand (SirReal2) with values of - 59.9, - 57.4, - 53.5, and - 49.7 kcal/mol, respectively. On the basis of structural and energetic assessments, the identified NPAtlas compounds were confirmed to be steady over a 200 ns MD course. The drug-likeness and pharmacokinetic characteristics of the identified NPAtlas molecules were anticipated, and robust bioavailability was predicted. Conclusively, the current results propose potent inhibitors for SIRT2 deserving more in vitro/in vivo investigation.

RESUMO

The inhibition of glycogen synthase kinase 3ß (GSK3ß) activity through pharmacological intervention represents a promising approach for treating challenging neurodegenerative disorders like Alzheimer's disease. Similarly, abnormal tau aggregate accumulation in neurons is a hallmark of various neurodegenerative diseases. We introduced new dual GSK3ß/tau aggregation inhibitors due to the excellent clinical outcome of multitarget drugs. Compound (E)-2f stands out among the synthesized inhibitors as a promising GSK3ß inhibitor (IC50 1.7 µM) with a pronounced tau anti-aggregation effect in a cell-based model of tauopathy. Concurrently, (E)-2f was demonstrated to be non-toxic to normal cells, making it a promising neuroprotective lead compound that needs further investigation.

RESUMO

Sirtuin 2 (SIRT2) is a member of the human sirtuins, which regulates various biological processes and is deemed as a novel biomarker for different cancers. Depending on the tumor type, SIRT2 knockout leads to a controversial role in tumorigenesis, however, pharmacological inhibition of SIRT2 results exclusively in growth inhibition of various cancer cells. In this respect, selective SIRT2 inhibitors hold therapeutic promise in a wide range of tumors. The literature has a batch of successful stories of SIRT2 modulators discovery. This review presents our perspective on the up-to-date selective SIRT2 inhibitors and their antiproliferative activity.
