Synthesis anticancer activity and molecular modeling of etodolac-thioether derivatives as potent methionine aminopeptidase (type II) inhibitors
(Wiley, 2018)
A series of (RS)-1-{[5-(substituted)sulfanyl-4-substituted-4H-124-triazole-3-yl]methyl}-18-diethyl-1349-tetrahydropyrano[34-b]indoles (5a-v) were designed and synthesized using a five-step synthetic protocol that involves ...
Synthesis and Screening of Human Monoamine Oxidase-A Inhibitor Effect of New 2-Pyrazoline and Hydrazone Derivatives
(Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH, 2015)
A group of 35-diaryl-2-pyrazoline and hydrazone derivatives was prepared via the reaction of various chalcones with hydrazide compounds in ethanol. Twenty original compounds were synthesized. Ten of these original compounds ...
New azole derivatives showing antimicrobial effects and their mechanism of antifungal activity by molecular modeling studies
(Elsevier France-Editions Scientifiques Medicales Elsevier, 2017)
Azole antifungals are potent inhibitors of fungal lanosterol 14 alpha demethylase (CYP51) and have been used for eradication of systemic candidiasis clinically. Herein we report the design synthesis and biological evaluation ...
Assessing protein-ligand binding modes with computational tools: the case of PDE4B
(Springer, 2017)
In a first step in the discovery of novel potent inhibitor structures for the PDE4B family with limited side effects we present a protocol to rank newly designed molecules through the estimation of their IC values. Our ...
Molecular modifications on carboxylic acid derivatives as potent histone deacetylase inhibitors: Activity and docking studies
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2009)
In the light of known HDAC inhibitors 33 carboxylic acid derivatives were tested to understand the structural requirements for HDAC inhibition activity. Several modifications were applied to develop the structure-activity ...
Identification of potential inhibitors of human methionine aminopeptidase (type II) for cancer therapy: Structure-based virtual screening, ADMET prediction and molecular dynamics studies
(Elsevier, 2020)
Methionine Aminopeptidases MetAPs are divalent-cofactor dependent enzymes that are responsible for the cleavage of the initiator Methionine from the nascent polypeptides. MetAPs are classified into two isoforms: namely, ...
Homology modeling andin silicodesign of novel and potential dual-acting inhibitors of human histone deacetylases HDAC5 and HDAC9 isozymes
(2020)
Histone deacetylases (HDACs) are a group of enzymes that have prominent and crucial effect on various biological systems, mainly by their suppressive effect on transcription. Searching for inhibitors targeting their ...
Homology modeling of human histone deacetylase 10 and design of potential selective inhibitors
(Taylor & Francis Inc, 2019)
Histone deacetylases (HDACs) are implicated in the pathology of various cancers, and their pharmacological blockade has proven to be promising in reversing the malignant phenotypes. However, lack of crystal structures of ...
Synthesis Molecular Modelling and Antibacterial Activity Against Helicobacter pylori of Novel Diflunisal Derivatives as Urease Enzyme Inhibitors
(Bentham Science Publ Ltd, 2019)
Background: The main factor for the prolongation of the ulcer treatment in the gastrointestinal system would be Helicobacter pylori infection which can possibly lead to gastrointestinal cancer. Triple therapy is the treatment ...
Flavonoids from Sideritis Species: Human Monoamine Oxidase (hMAO) Inhibitory Activities Molecular Docking Studies and Crystal Structure of Xanthomicrol
(MDPI, 2015)
The inhibitory effects of flavonoids on monoamine oxidases (MAOs) have attracted great interest since alterations in monoaminergic transmission are reported to be related to neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson's ...
