New hexahydropyrimido[1,2- a]azepine derivatives bearing functionalized aryl and heterocyclic moieties were synthesized as anti-inflammatory agents with better safety profiles. All synthesized compounds were assessed in vitro for their COX-1 and COX-2 inhibition activities. The most selective compounds, 2f, 5 and 6, were further evaluated for their in vivo anti-inflammatory activity and PGE2 inhibitory activity. To rationalize their selectivity, molecular docking within COX-1 and COX-2 binding sites was performed. Their physicochemical properties and drug-like nature profile were also calculated. The good activity and selectivity of compounds 2f, 5 and 6 were rationalized using a molecular docking study and supported by in vivo studies. These promising findings are encouraging for performing future investigations of these derivatives.

Anti Inflammatory

Aim: Currently, researchers have developed a lot of new active substances as anti-inflammatory agents. One of the target proteins for anti-inflammatory agents is the selective COX-2 active site. Selective COX-2 inhibition is the regulator of the inflammatory reaction cascade. In this research, 3, 4- Dihydropyrimidone derivatives were used to design the anti-inflammatory agent through a selective COX-2 inhibition. The potential activity of 3, 4- Dihydropyrimidone derivatives maybe increase due to the preparation of the Schiff base with aromatic aldehydes. Selective COX-2 inhibition was required to predict their anti-inflammatory activity so, the aim in the present study, molecular docking study of 3,4- dihydropyrimidone derivatives have performed using COX-2 enzyme active site. Methodology: The molecular docking of 3, 4-dihydropyrimidone derivatives were carried out using AutoDock vina Ver.1.1.2. Twenty 3,4-dihydropyrimidone derivatives were docked into the COX-2 active site with Protein data bank code 3LN1. The interactions were evaluated based on the docking score. Celecoxib was used as the reference standard for this study. Results: Twenty 3, 4- dihydropyrimidone derivatives showed the approximate docking score -8.4 to -10.1 kcal/mol. Fourteen 3,4-dihydropyrimidone derivatives have a greater docking score compared to celecoxib used as a standard compound. Derivative D-1 had higher binding energy than other 3,4-dihydropyrimidone derivatives because it has the smallest docking score. Conclusion: All new 3,4-dihydropyrimidone derivatives are feasible to synthesize and performed their in-vitro evaluation.

The third-generation ionic liquids (ILs), which are being used to produce double active pharmaceutical ingredients (d-APIs) with tunable biological activity along with novel performance, enhancement, and delivery options, have been revolutionizing the area of drug discovery since the past few decades. Herein we report the in vitro antibacterial and anti-inflammatory activity of benzalkonium ibuprofenate (BaIb) that are being used as in-house d-API, with a particular focus on its interaction with respective protein target through molecular docking study. The evaluation of the biological activity of BaIb with the antibacterial and anti-inflammatory target at the molecular level revealed that the synthesized BaIb could be designed as a potential double active drug since it retains the antibacterial and anti-inflammatory activity of its parent drugs, benzalkonium chloride (BaCl) and sodium ibuprofenate (NaIb), respectively.

Background: Melanogenesis is a process of melanin synthesis, which is a primary response for the pigmentation of human skin. Tyrosinase is a key enzyme, which catalyzes a ratelimiting step of the melanin formation. Natural products have shown potent inhibitors, but some of these possess toxicity. Numerous synthetic inhibitors have been developed in recent years may lead to the potent anti– tyrosinase agents. Objective: A number of 4-hydroxy-N'-methylenebenzohydrazide analogues with related structure to chalcone and tyrosine were constructed with various substituents at the benzyl ring of the molecule and evaluate as a tyrosinase inhibitor. In addition, computational analysis and metal chelating potential have been evaluated. Methods: Design and synthesized compounds were evaluated for activity against mushroom tyrosinase. The metal chelating capacity of the potent compound was examined using the mole ratio method. Molecular docking of the synthesized compounds was carried out into the tyrosine active site. Results: Novel 4-hydroxy-N'-methylenebenzohydrazide derivatives were synthesized. The two compounds 4c and 4g showed an IC50 near the positive control, led to a drastic inhibition of tyrosinase. Confirming in vitro results were performed via the molecular docking analysis demonstrating hydrogen bound interactions of potent compounds with histatidine-Cu+2 residues with in the active site. Kinetic study of compound 4g showed competitive inhibition towards tyrosinase. Metal chelating assay indicates the mole fraction of 1:2 stoichiometry of the 4g-Cu2+ complex. Conclusion: The findings in the present study demonstrate that 4-Hydroxy-N'- methylenebenzohydrazide scaffold could be regarded as a bioactive core inhibitor of tyrosinase and can be used as an inspiration for further studies in this area.

Necrosis Factor

Background: Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune disorder of symmetric synovial joints which is characterized by the chronic inflammation with 0.5-1% prevalence in developed countries. Presence of persistent inflammation is attributed to the major contribution of key inflammatory cytokine and tumour necrosis factor- alpha (TNF- &#945;). Recent drug designing studies are developing TNF-&#945; blockers to provide relief from the symptoms of the disease such as pain and inflammation. Available blockers are showing certain limitations such as it may enhance the rate of tuberculosis (TB) occurrence, lymphoma risk, cost issues and certain infections are major concern. Discussed limitations implicated a need of development of some alternative drugs which exhibit fewer side effects with low cost. Therefore, we have identified anti-inflammatory compounds in an underutilized fruit of Baccaurea sapida (B.sapida) in our previous studies. Among them quercetin have been identified as the most potent lead compound for drug designing studies of RA. </P><P> Methods: In the present article, characterization of quercetin has been carried out to check its drug likeliness and molecular docking study has been carried out between TNF- &#945; and quercetin by using AutoDock 4.2.1 software. Further, inhibitory effect of B. sapida fruit extract on RA plasma has been analysed through immunological assay ELISA. </P><P> Results: Our in-silico analysis indicated that quercetin showed non carcinogenic reaction in animal model and it may also cross the membrane barrier easily. We have studied the ten different binding poses and best binding pose of TNF-&#945; and quercetin showed -6.3 kcal/mol minimum binding energy and 23.94 &#181;M inhibitory constant. In addition to this, ELISA indicated 2.2 down regulated expression of TNF-&#945; in RA compared to control. </P><P> Conclusion: This study may further be utilized for the drug designing studies to reduce TNF-&#945; mediated inflammation in near future. This attempt may also enhance the utilization of this plant worldwide.

AbstractIn an attempt to find novel, potent α-glucosidase inhibitors, a library of poly-substituted 3-amino-2,4-diarylbenzo[4,5]imidazo[1,2-a]pyrimidines 3a–ag have been synthesized through heating a mixture of 2-aminobenzimidazoles 1 and α-azidochalcone 2 under the mild conditions. This efficient, facile protocol has been resulted into the desirable compounds with a wide substrate scope in good to excellent yields. Afterwards, their inhibitory activities against yeast α-glucosidase enzyme were investigated. Showing IC50 values ranging from 16.4 ± 0.36 µM to 297.0 ± 1.2 µM confirmed their excellent potency to inhibit α-glucosidase which encouraged us to perform further studies on α-glucosidase enzymes obtained from rat as a mammal source. Among various synthesized 3-amino-2,4-diarylbenzo[4,5]imidazo[1,2-a]pyrimidines, compound 3k exhibited the highest potency against both Saccharomyces cerevisiae α-glucosidase (IC50 = 16.4 ± 0.36 μM) and rat small intestine α-glucosidase (IC50 = 45.0 ± 8.2 μM). Moreover, the role of amine moiety on the observed activity was studied through substituting with chlorine and hydrogen resulted into a considerable deterioration on the inhibitory activity. Kinetic study and molecular docking study have confirmed the in-vitro results.
