Novel Heteroaryl Selenocyanates and Diselenides as Potent Antileishmanial Agents.
A series of new selenocyanates and diselenides bearing interesting bioactive scaffolds (quinoline, quinoxaline, acridine, chromene, furane, isosazole, etc.) was synthesized, and their in vitro leishmanicidal activities against Leishmania infantum amastigotes along with their cytotoxicities in human THP-1 cells were determined. Interestingly, most tested compounds were active in the low micromol...
متن کاملNovel Levofloxacin Derivatives as Potent Antibacterial Agents
In this report, a new series of fluoroquinolone agents which was derived from levofloxacin was synthesized and evaluated against Gram-positive (Bacillus subtillis, Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus epidermidis and Micrococcus luteus) and Gram-negative (Esherichio coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Serratia marcescens) organisms. The results showed that some of the synth...
متن کامل9-Anilinoacridines as potential antileishmanial agents.
A number of 1'-substituted 9-anilinoacridines were evaluated for their activities against promastigote and amastigote forms of Leishmania major and for their toxicities to human Jurkat leukemia cells. Several compounds possessing 1'-NH-alkyl substituents produced more than 80% growth inhibition of macrophage-infected L. major amastigotes at or below a concentration of 1 microM. 1'-Hexylamino-9-...
متن کاملN-cinnamoylated aminoquinolines as promising antileishmanial agents.
A series of cinnamic acid conjugates of primaquine and chloroquine were evaluated for their in vitro antileishmanial activities. Although primaquine derivatives had modest activity, chloroquine conjugates exhibited potent activity against both promastigotes (50% inhibitory concentration [IC50] = 2.6 to 21.8 μM) and intramacrophagic amastigotes (IC50 = 1.2 to 9.3 μM) of Leishmania infantum. Both...
متن کاملLiposomal Delivery of Antileishmanial Agents
Initially, the use of liposomes was mainly confined to model membrane systems, however, recently their use as vehicles for transfer of genetic and other materials into cells in cultures or for drug delivery to desired cellular and subcellular sites in a living system has been the subject of discussion. Liposomes can vary widely in size, chemical composition, and surface characteristics; they ca...
