The CC chemokine receptor-1 (CCR1) is a prime therapeutic target for treating autoimmune diseases. Through high capacity screening followed by chemical optimization, we identified novel non-peptide CCR1 antagonist, R-<i>N</i>-[5-chloro-2-[2-[4-[(4-fluorophenyl)methyl]-2-methyl-1-piperazinyl]-2-oxoethoxy]phenyl]urea hydrochloric acid salt (BX 471). Competition binding studies revealed that BX 471 was able to displace the ligands macrophage inflammatory protein-1α (MIP-1α), RANTES, and...
The CC chemokines macrophage inflammatory protein-1α (MIP-1α) and RANTES (regulated on activation normal T cell expressed) have been implicated in rheumatoid arthritis multiple sclerosis. Since their effects are mediated through the CCR1 chemokine receptor, we set up a small molecule antagonist program to search for inhibitors. Through high capacity screening discovered number of 4-hydroxypiperidine compounds with activity report synthesis <i>in vitro</i> pharmacology here. Scatchard...
A series of novel 24 phenylhydrazono phenoxyquinoline derivatives were synthesized with moderate to excellent yield and screened for their efficacy against the α-amylase enzyme through in silico studies. The structures characterized using spectroscopic techniques such as 1HNMR, 13CNMR, HREI-MS. Comprehensive computational studies including, drug-likeness ADMET profiling, quantum chemical calculations, molecular docking, dynamics (MD) simulation studies, performed. density functional theory...
Assembling molecular machines into crystals provides a way to harness their power on large length scales, but the development of crystal analogue motor remains challenge. The molecule (

Neuropeptide Y (NPY) receptors belong to the G-protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) superfamily and mediate several physiological responses, such as blood pressure, food intake, sedation memory retention. To understand interactions between NPY Y1 subtype its ligands, computer modeling was applied natural peptide agonist, a small molecule antagonist, BIBP3226. An agonist antagonist binding domain elucidated using mutagenesis data for well other GPCR families. The ligands which were investigated...
Abstract Pyridinium chlorochromate (PCC) has been found to be selective reagent for the oxidative cleavage of enol ethers esters or keto lactones in high yields.
Ligands for the CCR1 receptor (MIP-1alpha and RANTES) have been implicated in a number of chronic inflammatory diseases, most notably multiple sclerosis rheumatoid arthritis. Because these ligands share common receptor, CCR1, we sought to discover antagonists this as an approach treating disorders. A novel series 4-hydroxypiperidines has discovered by high throughput screening (HTS) which potently inhibits binding MIP-1alpha RANTES recombinant human chemokine receptor. The structure-activity...

Cinnamalmalononitrile (CM) derivatives have been shown to exhibit a strong photomechanical response in the crystal form. In this paper, effects of fluorine substitution on molecular properties, packing, and solid-state photochemical reactivity family photochromes are explored. The addition fluorines shifts S0 – S1 gap higher energy up 0.4 eV. Fluorination also enables polymorphism some that effectively controls whether or not they can undergo [2 + 2] photodimerization. Depending pattern,...
In this study, a focused library of oxime ester derivatives 2,4-dichloro-5-sulfamoylbenzoic acid (lasamide) containing Schiff bases was synthesized and tested in vitro for their ability to inhibit the cytosolic human carbonic anhydrases (hCAs) I II, as well transmembrane tumor-associated IX XII isoforms. As result, we obtained first line knowledge on lasamide potentially useful development CA inhibitors (CAIs). particular, our attention derivative 11, which selective toward hCAs over...
