Design and Synthesis of New Dual Binding Site Cholinesterase Inhibitors: in vitro Inhibition Studies with in silico Docking
نویسندگان
چکیده
Cholinesterases (ChEs) play a vital role in the regulation of cholinergic transmission. The inhibition of ChEs is considered to be involved in increasing acetylcholine level in the brain and thus has been implicated in the treatment of Alzheimer's disease. We have designed and synthesized a series of novel indole derivatives and screened them for inhibition of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE). Most of the tested compounds exhibited inhibitory activity against AChE and BChE. Among them 4f and 6e showed the highest AChE inhibitory activity with IC50 91.21±0.06 and 68.52±0.04 μM, respectively. However compound 5a exhibited the highest inhibitory activity against BChE (IC50 55.21±0.12 μM).

In search of potent cholinesterase inhibitors, we have carried out the synthesis and biologically evaluation of various benzaldehyde based 2,3-dihydroquinazolin-4(1H)-one derivatives. In vitro assay results revealed that all the synthesized compounds showed activity against both enzymes (AChE and BChE) and in few cases, the inhibition activity was even higher than or comp...

The expression of heat shock protein 27 (Hsp27) as a chaperone protein, is increased in response to various stress stimuli such as anticancer chemotherapy. This phenomenon can lead to survive of the cells and causes drug resistance. In this study, a series of methanesulfonamide derivatives as dual Hsp27 and tubulin inhibitors in the treatment of cancer were applied to quantitative structure–act...

Alzheimer's disease is an irreversible and progressive brain disorder that slowly destroys memory and thinking skills and ultimately the ability to do the simplest things and can lead to death. Cholinesterases (ChEs) play an important role in controlling cholinergic transmission, and subsequently, by inhibiting CHEs, acetylcholine levels in the brain are elevated. Coumarins have been shown to e...
متن کاملDesign, Synthesis, Molecular Modeling, In Silico ADME Studies and Anti-HIV-1 Assay of New Diazocoumarin Derivatives
Some new diazo incorporated coumarin compounds were designed and synthesized to evaluate their anti-HIV activity. Overall, compounds were active against HIV at 100 μM. Additionally, no cytotoxic effect was observed at this concentration. The compound with 4-chlorobenzyl group indicated the best anti-HIV activity (52%). Docking studies using the later crystallographic data available for PFV inte...

Acetylcholinesterase has important role in synaptic cleft. It breaks down the acetylcholineatcholinergic synapsesand terminates the cholinergic effects. Some chemical agents likeorganophosphorus compounds (OPCs) including nerve agents and pesticides react withacetylcholinesteraseirreversibly. They inhibit normal biological enzyme action and resultin accumulation of acetylcholineand show toxic e...
