Recent Attention

The Peroxisome proliferators-activated receptors (PPARs) are one of the nuclear fatty acid receptors, which contain a type II zincfinger DNA binding pattern and a hydrophobic ligand binding pocket. These receptors are thought to play an essential role in metabolic diseasessuch as obesity, insulin resistance, and coronary artery disease. Therefore Peroxisome Proliferators-Activated Receptor (PPARγ) activators havedrawn great recent attention in the clinical management of type 2 diabetes mellitus, prompting several attempts to discover and optimize newPPARγ activators. Objective: The aim of the study was to finding new selective human PPARγ (PPARγ) modulators that are able to improveglucose homeostasis with reduced side effects compared with TZDs and identify the specific molecular descriptor and structural constraint toimprove the agonist activity of PPARγ analogs. Material and Method: Software’s that was used for this study include S.P. Gupta QSARsoftware (QSAR analysis), Valstat (Comparative QSAR analysis and calculation of L-O-O, Q2, r2, Spress), BILIN (Comparative QSAR analysisand calculation of Q2, r, S, Spress, and F), etc., allowing directly performing statistical analysis. Then multiple linear regression based QSARsoftware (received from BITS-Pilani, India) generates QSAR equations. Result and Discussion: In this study, we explored the quantitativestructure–activity relationship (QSAR) study of a series of meta-substituted Phenyl-propanoic acids as Peroxisome Proliferators Gamma activatedreceptor agonists (PPARγ).The activities of meta-substituted Phenyl-propanoic acids derivatives correlated with various physicochemical, electronic and steric parameters.Conclusion: The identified QSAR models highlighted the significance of molar refractivity and hydrophobicity to the biological activity.

Damaging Effects

Background: More than 2,000 chemicals have been used in the tannery industry. Although some tannery chemicals have been reported to have harmful effects on both human health and the environment, only a few have been subjected to genotoxicity and cytotoxicity evaluations. Objective: This study focused on cytotoxicity and genotoxicity of ten tannery chemicals widely used in China. Materials and Methods: DNA-damaging effects were measured using the SOS/umu test with Salmonella typhimurium TA1535/pSK1002. Chromosome-damaging and cytotoxic effects were determined with the high-content in vitro Micronucleus test (MN test) using the human-derived cell lines MGC-803 and A549. Conclusion: The cytotoxicity of the ten tannery chemicals differed somewhat between the two cell assays, with A549 cells being more sensitive than MGC-803 cells. None of the chemicals induced DNA damage before metabolism, but one was found to have DNA-damaging effects on metabolism. Four of the chemicals, DY64, SB1, DB71 and RR120, were found to have chromosome-damaging effects. A Quantitative Structure-Activity Relationship (QSAR) analysis indicated that one structural feature favouring chemical genotoxicity, Hacceptor-path3-Hacceptor, may contribute to the chromosome-damaging effects of the four MN-test-positive chemicals.

Aims and Objectives: The aim of this study was to derive robust and reliable QSAR models for clarification and prediction of antioxidant activity of 43 heterocyclic and Schiff bases dipicolinic acid derivatives. According to the best obtained QSAR model, structures of new compounds with possible great activities should be proposed. Methods: Molecular descriptors were calculated by DRAGON and ADMEWORKS from optimized molecular structure and two algorithms were used for creating the training and test sets in both set of descriptors. Regression analysis and validation of models were performed using QSARINS. Results: The model with best internal validation result was obtained by DRAGON descriptors (MATS4m, EEig03d, BELm4, Mor10p), split by ranking method (R2 = 0.805; R2 ext = 0.833; F = 30.914). The model with best external validation result was obtained by ADMEWORKS descriptors (NDB, MATS5p, MDEN33, TPSA), split by random method (R2 = 0.692; R2 ext = 0.848; F = 16.818). Conclusion: Important structural requirements for great antioxidant activity are: low number of double bonds in molecules; absence of tertial nitrogen atoms; higher number of hydrogen bond donors; enhanced molecular polarity; and symmetrical moiety. Two new compounds with potentially great antioxidant activities were proposed.

Structure Activity

The scientists, and the researchers around the globe generate tremendous amount of information everyday; for instance, so far more than 74 million molecules are registered in Chemical Abstract Services. According to a recent study, at present we have around 1060 molecules, which are classified as new drug-like molecules. The library of such molecules is now considered as ‘dark chemical space’ or ‘dark chemistry.’ Now, in order to explore such hidden molecules scientifically, a good number of live and updated databases (protein, cell, tissues, structure, drugs, etc.) are available today. The synchronization of the three different sciences: ‘genomics’, proteomics and ‘in-silico simulation’ will revolutionize the process of drug discovery. The screening of a sizable number of drugs like molecules is a challenge and it must be treated in an efficient manner. Virtual screening (VS) is an important computational tool in the drug discovery process; however, experimental verification of the drugs also equally important for the drug development process. The quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) analysis is one of the machine learning technique, which is extensively used in VS techniques. QSAR is well-known for its high and fast throughput screening with a satisfactory hit rate. The QSAR model building involves (i) chemo-genomics data collection from a database or literature (ii) Calculation of right descriptors from molecular representation (iii) establishing a relationship (model) between biological activity and the selected descriptors (iv) application of QSAR model to predict the biological property for the molecules. All the hits obtained by the VS technique needs to be experimentally verified. The present mini-review highlights: the web-based machine learning tools, the role of QSAR in VS techniques, successful applications of QSAR based VS leading to the drug discovery and advantages and challenges of QSAR.

Aims: In this article we have developed an eco-friendly one-pot multi-component reaction methodology was employed for the green synthesis of functionalized pyrazole derivatives viz cyclo-condensation of aromatic aldehydes, ethyl acetoacetate and phenyl hydrazine and/or hydrazine hydrate in the presence of cetyltrimethylammoniumbromide (CTAB) at 90°C temperature in aqueous medium. Method: In the present protocol we developed a green method for the synthesis of functionalized pyrazole derivatives through one-pot, multi-component cyclo-condensation of aromatic aldehydes, phenyl hydrazine or hydrazine hydrate and ethyl acetoacetate using cetyltrimethylammoniumbromide (CTAB) as a catalyst in water as solvent. Our methodology confers advantages such as short reaction time, atom economy, purification of product without using column chromatographic and hazardous solvent. The reaction is being catalyzed by cetyltrimethylammoniumbromide (CTAB) and thus products are formed under the green reaction conditions. Results: Initially the reaction of benzaldehyde and phenylhydrazine with ethyl acetoacetate was carried out in water at room temperature in the absence of the catalyst; no product was obtained after 24 h (Table 1 entry 1). When the reaction was carried out using L-proline as catalyst in ethanol at 70°C the yield of product was 20. Conclusion: This research not only provides a green and efficient method for the synthesis of sulfinic esters but also shows new applications of electrochemistry in organic synthesis. We consider that this green and efficient synthetic protocol used to prepare sulfinic esters will have good applications in future. In conclusion, we have developed successfully a green and efficient one-pot multi-component methodology for the synthesis of substituted pyrazoles using CTAB as a catalyst in water as solvent with excellent yields. Purifications of compounds were achieved without the use of traditional chromatographic procedures. This methodology has advantages of operational simplicity, clean reaction profiles and relatively broad scope which make it more attractive for the diversity oriented synthesis of these heterocyclic libraries. In this methodology we suggest the further alternative possibility for formation of substituted pyrazoles. The compound 7h can be used as an anticancer drug in pharma industry.
