Novel Dual Inhibitors of 5-Lipoxygenase and Thromboxane A2 Synthetase: Synthesis and Structure-Activity Relationships of 3-Pyridylmethyl-Substituted 2-Amino-6-hydroxybenzothiazole Derivatives
摘要:
As part of our search for novel antiinflammatory drug candidates, we have designed and synthesized a series of 3-pyridylmethyl-substituted 2-amino-6-hydroxybenzothiazoles. Introduction of a 3-pyridylmethyl group into the 2-amino group (type-A) or the benzene ring (type-B) of 2-amino-6-hydroxybenzothiazoles imparted dual inhibitory activity against the production by glycogen-induced peritoneal cells of rat (in vitro) of leukotriene B-4 (LTB(4)) and thromboxane A(2) (TXA(2)), while not significantly inhibiting that of prostaglandin E(2) (PGE(2)). The observed inhibition of the former two arachidonic acid metabolites was indicated to be the result of a direct action on 5-Lipoxygenase and TXA(2) synthetase by a cell-free in vitro assay. On the other hand, the inhibitory activities against PGE(2) production were for most compounds very weak, indicating that they did not inhibit cyclooxygenase. Structure-activity relationship studies concerning the position of the 3-pyridylmethyl group revealed that type-B compounds generally showed about 10-fold stronger inhibitory activity against TXA(2) synthetase than type-A compounds. The position of the 3-pyridylmethyl group played an important role in TXA(2) synthetase inhibition. When some of these compounds (8, 13a, 26a (E3040), 26b, 27b, and 28b) were orally administered in the rat TNB/ethanol-induced chronic colitis model (100 mg/ kg), the production of both LTB(4) and TXB(2) in the rat colon was reduced (ex vivo). In addition, one type-B compound, 6-hydroxy-5,7-dimethyl-2-(methylamino)-4 zole (26a), demonstrated a therapeutic effect at treatments of 100 mg/kg po once daily for 11 days and showed almost comparable activity to sulfasalazine at a dose of 500 mg/kg, the reference drug for inflammatory bowel diseases, in this in vivo model.
Synthesis, Cytotoxicity andIn VitroAntileishmanial Activity of Naphthothiazoles
摘要:
The leishmaniasis is a spectral disease caused by the protozoan Leishmania spp., which threatens millions of people worldwide. Current treatments exhibit high toxicity, and there is no vaccine available. The need for new lead compounds with leishmanicidal activity is urgent. Considering that many lead leishmanicidal compounds contain a quinoidal scaffold and the thiazole heterocyclic ring is found in a number of antimicrobial drugs, we proposed a hybridization approach to generate a diverse set of semi‐synthetic heterocycles with antileishmanial activity. We found that almost all synthesized compounds demonstrated potent activity against promastigotes of Leishmania (Viannia) braziliensis and reduced the survival index of Leishmania amastigotes in mammalian macrophages. Furthermore, the compounds were not cytotoxic to macrophages at fivefold higher concentrations than the EC50 for promastigotes. All molecules fulfilled Lipinski's Rule of Five, which predicts efficient orally absorption and permeation through biological membranes, the in silico pharmacokinetic profile confirmed these characteristics. The potent and selective activity of semi‐synthetic naphthothiazoles against promastigotes and amastigotes reveals that the 2‐amino‐naphthothiazole ring may represent a scaffold for the design of compounds with leishmanicidal properties and encourage the development of drug formulation and new compounds for further studies in vivo.
The present invention is directed to substituted naphthothiazolium, aromatic guanylhydrazones, and other compounds and compositions with anti-malarial activity useful for the treatment and prophylaxis of malaria. The compounds are provided for the treatment of malaria or the sequelae of malarial infection, for depolymerizing malaria pigment (hemozoin), and for ameliorating the adverse effects of hemozoin on host cells.
