Ligand based approach to L-type calcium channel by imidazo[2,1-b]thiazole-1,4-dihydropyridines: from heart activity to brain affinity.

چکیده
The synthesis, characterization, and functional in vitro assay in cardiac and smooth muscle (vascular and nonvascular) of a series of 4-imidazo[2,1-b]thiazole-1,4-dihydropyridines are reported. To define the calcium blocker nature of the imidazo[2,1-b]thiazole-1,4-DHPs and their selectivity on Cav1.2 and Cav1.3 isoforms, we performed binding studies on guinea pig atrial and ventricular membranes on intact cells expressing the cloned Cav1.2a subunit and on rat brain cortex. To get major insights into the reasons for the affinity for Cav1.2 and/or Cav1.3, molecular modeling studies were also undertaken. Some physicochemical and pharmacokinetic properties of selected compounds were calculated and compared. All the biological data collected and reported herein allowed us to rationalize the structure-activity relationship of the 4-imidazo[2,1-b]thiazole-1,4-DHPs and to identify which of these enhanced the activity at the central level.

Cystic Fibrosis: A New Target for 4-Imidazo[2,1-b]thiazole-1,4-dihydropyridines
The pharmacology of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) Cl(-) channel has attracted significant interest in recent years with the aim to search for rational new therapies for diseases caused by CFTR malfunction. Mutations that abolish the function of CFTR cause the life-threatening genetic disease cystic fibrosis (CF). The most common cause of CF is the deletion of ph...

Objective(s): The structure- activity relationship of a series of 36 molecules, showing L-type calcium channel blocking was studied using a QSAR (quantitative structure–activity relationship) method. Materials and Methods: Structures were optimized by the semi-empirical AM1 quantum-chemical method which was also used to find structure-calcium channel blocking activity trends. Several types of ...
متن کاملDesign, Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of New Imidazo[2,1-b]Thiazole Derivatives as Selective COX-2 Inhibitors
A new series of imidazo[2,1-b]thiazole analogs containing a methyl sulfonyl COX-2 pharmacophore was synthesized and evaluated for their COX-2 inhibitory activity. According to in-vitro COX-1/COX-2 inhibition data, all compounds (6a-g) were selective inhibitors of COX-2 isoenzyme with IC50 values in the highly potent 0.08-0.16 mM range. These results indicated that both potency and selectivity o...
