Multi-target-directed triazole derivatives as promising agents for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease
摘要:
A novel series of triazole-based compounds have been designed, synthesised and evaluated as multi-targetdirected ligands (MTDLs) against Alzheimer disease (AD). The triazole-based compounds have been designed to target four major AD hallmarks that include A beta aggregation, metal-induced A beta aggregation, metal dys-homeostasis and oxidative stress. Among the synthesised compounds, 6n having o-CF3 group on the phenyl ring displayed most potent inhibitory activity (96.89% inhibition, IC50 = 8.065 +/- 0.129 mu M) against A beta(42) aggregation, compared to the reference compound curcumin (95.14% inhibition, IC50 = 6.385 +/- 0.009 mu M). Compound 6n disassembled preformed A beta(42) aggregates as effectively as curcumin. Furthermore, 6n displayed metal chelating ability and significantly inhibited Cu2+-induced A beta(42) aggregation and disassembled preformed Cu2+-induced A beta(42) aggregates. 6n successfully controlled the generation of the reactive oxygen species (ROS) by preventing the copper redox cycle. In addition, 6n did not display cytotoxicity and was able to inhibit toxicity induced by A beta(42) aggregates in SH-SY5Y cells. The preferred binding regions and key interactions of 6n with A beta(42) monomer and A beta(42) protofibril structure was evaluated with molecular docking. Compound 6n binds preferably to the C-terminal region of A beta(42) that play a critical role in A beta(42) aggregation. The results of the present study highlight a novel triazole-based compound, 6n, as a promising MTDL against AD.

The enantioselective synthesis of aminoindan carboxylic acid (Aic) derivatives was achieved by Rh-catalyzed intramolecular [2+2+2] cycloaddition of amino-acid-tethered triynes. This reaction, along with recrystallization, gave chiral tethered Aic derivatives with excellent enantiomeric excess. Subsequent hydrolysis of the tethered Aic compounds afforded chiral Aic derivatives, which were further transformed
Amyloid-β (Aβ) aggregation plays a key role in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Along with this, the presence of redox-active metals like Cu2+ further enhances Aβ aggregation, oxidative stress, and cellular toxicity. In this study, we have rationallydesigned, synthesized, and evaluated a series of triazole–peptide conjugates as potential promiscuous ligands capable of targeting different
Indane-based peptides are biologically important compounds. Here, we carried out late stage modification of dipeptides containing 2-aminoindan-2-carboxylic acid (Aic) via Sonogashira coupling, [2+2+2] cyclotrimerization, sultine formation, Diels–Alder reaction and Suzuki–Miyaura cross coupling as key steps.
