The multifactorial nature of cancer requires treatment that involves simultaneous targeting associated overexpressed proteins and cell signaling pathways, possibly leading to synergistic effects. Herein, we present a systematic study the inhibition human topoisomerases (hTopos) histone deacetylases (HDACs) by multitargeted quinoline-bridged hydroxamic acid derivatives. These compounds were rationally designed considering pharmacophoric features catalytic sites cross-talk proteins,...

The discovery of selective and potent inhibitors through de novo pathways is essential to combat drug resistance in chronic hepatitis B (CHB) infections. Recent studies have highlighted that neplanocin A (NepA) derivatives are biologically the virus (HBV). In this study, we designed, synthesized, evaluated various pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine-based NepA analogues (4a-h) for their anti-HBV activity. Notably, analogue 4g demonstrated significant activity against HBV replication, with EC50 (HBV...

Telmisartan (TLM), a nonpeptide angiotensin II antagonist, is widely prescribed for treating arterial hypertension and marketed by the innovator with trade name of Micardis plus. exhibits low aqueous solubility in pH range 3-7, which physiological pH. For addressing issue poor TLM, its commercial form makes use inorganic alkalinizers. The present work illustrates attempt to improve telmisartan via crystal engineering approach. A novel solid phthalic acid was obtained through solution...

A rapid and efficient synthesis of aminotetrazole from aryl azides, isocyanides, TMSN3 is developed. The reaction promoted by sequential Pd(0)/Fe(III) catalysis. sequence utilizes the Pd-catalyzed azide–isocyanide denitrogenative coupling to generate unsymmetric carbodiimide in situ, which reacts with presence FeCl3 a single pot. methodology has distinct advantages over traditional synthetic approaches where toxic Hg Pb salts are employed at stoichiometric scale.

Herpes genitalis, caused by HSV-2, is an incurable genital ulcerative disease transmitted sexual intercourse. The virus establishes life-long latency in sacral root ganglia and reported to have synergistic relationship with HIV-1 transmission. Till date no effective vaccine available, while the existing therapy frequently yielded drug resistance, toxicity treatment failure. Thus, there a pressing need for non-nucleotide antiviral agent from traditional source. Based on ethnomedicinal use we...

Several 7-deaza-6-benzylthioinosine analogues with varied substituents on aromatic ring were synthesized and evaluated against Toxoplasma gondii adenosine kinase (EC.2.7.1.20). Structure−activity relationships indicated that the nitrogen atom at 7-position does not appear to be a critical structural requirement. Molecular modeling reveals 7-deazapurine motif provided flexibility 6-benzylthio group as result of absence H-bonding between N7 Thr140. This allowed better fitting into hydrophobic...

Biophysical studies have shown that each molecule of calsequestrin 1 (CASQ1) can bind about 70–80 Ca2+ ions. However, the nature Ca2+-binding sites has not yet been fully characterized. In this study, we employed in silico approaches to identify binding and understand molecular basis CASQ1–Ca2+ recognition. We built protein model by extracting atomic coordinates for back-to-back dimeric unit from recently solved hexameric CASQ1 structure (PDB id: 3UOM) adding missing C-terminal residues...

The rapid synthesis of the isoindolinone skeleton has been accomplished by a palladium‐catalyzed one‐pot tandem process, which consists an isocyanide insertion/hydration (carboxamidation) and 5‐ exo ‐ dig cycloisomerization (hydroamidation) reaction sequence that afforded products in good to excellent yields. Preliminary mechanistic studies this sequential C–C/C–O/C–N bond formation process suggests carboxamidation step is palladium‐dependent, whereas hydroamidation solely mediated base...

Calsequestrin undergoes dynamic polymerization with increasing calcium concentration by front-to-front dimerization and back-to-back packing, forming wire-shaped structures. A recent finding that point mutation R33Q leads to lethal catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT) implies a crucial role for the N terminus. In this study, we demonstrate resides in highly conserved alternately charged residue cluster (DGKDR; 1) N-terminal end of calsequestrin. We further show...
