Synthesis Molecular Docking and Anticancer Activity of Diflunisal Derivatives as Cyclooxygenase Enzyme Inhibitors
(MDPI, 2018)
Cyclooxygenase enzymes play a vital role in inflammatory pathways in the human body. Apart from their relation with inflammation the additional involvement of COX-2 enzyme with cancer activity was recently discovered. In ...
New pyrazoline bearing 4(3H)-quinazolinone inhibitors of monoamine oxidase: Synthesis biological evaluation and structural determinants of MAO-A and MAO-B selectivity
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2009)
A new series of pyrazoline derivatives were prepared starting from a quinazolinone ring and evaluated for antidepressant anxiogenic and MAO-A and -B inhibitory activities by in vivo and in vitro tests respectively. Most ...
Histone Deacetylase Inhibition Activity and Molecular Docking of (E )-Resveratrol: Its Therapeutic Potential in Spinal Muscular Atrophy
(Wiley, 2009)
Spinal muscular atrophy is an autosomal recessive motor neuron disease that is caused by mutation of the survival motor neuron gene (SMN1) but all patients retain a nearly identical copy SMN2. The disease severity correlates ...
Synthesis and molecular modeling of some novel hexahydroindazole derivatives as potent monoamine oxidase inhibitors
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2009)
A novel series of 2-thiocarbamoyl-234567-hexahydro-1H-indazole and 2-substituted thiocarbamoyl-33a 4567-hexahydro-2H-indazoles derivatives were synthesized and investigated for the ability to inhibit the activity of the A ...
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 ...
A computational study on the amine-oxidation mechanism of monoamine oxidase: Insight into the polar nucleophilic mechanism
(Royal Soc Chemistry, 2006)
The proposed polar nucleophilic mechanism of MAO was investigated using quantum chemical calculations employing the semi-empirical PM3 method. In order to mimic the reaction at the enzyme's active site the reactions between ...
Synthesis of some novel hydrazone and 2-pyrazoline derivatives: Monoamine oxidase inhibitory activities and docking studies
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2014)
A novel series of 2-pyrazoline and hydrazone derivatives were synthesized and investigated for their human monoamine oxidase (hMAO) inhibitory activity. All compounds inhibited the hMAO isoforms (MAO-A or MAO-B) competitively ...
In silico identification of novel and selective monoamine oxidase B inhibitors
(SPRINGER WIEN, 2013)
Monoamine oxidases (MAO) A and B are flavin adenine dinucleotides containing enzymes bound to the mitochondrial outer membranes of the cells of the brain liver intestine and placenta as well as platelets. Recently selective ...
Exploration of the binding pocket of histone deacetylases: the design of potent and isoform-selective inhibitors
(Tübitak, 2017)
Histone deacetylases (HDACs) are enzymes that act on histone proteins to remove the acetyl group and thereby regulate the
chromatin state. HDACs act not only on histone protein but also nonhistone proteins that are key ...
Drug Design for CNS Diseases: Polypharmacological Profiling of Compounds Using Cheminformatic, 3D-QSAR and Virtual Screening Methodologies
(Frontiers Media Sa, 2016)
The diverse cerebral mechanisms implicated in Central Nervous System (CNS) diseases together with the heterogeneous and overlapping nature of phenotypes indicated that multitarget strategies may be appropriate for the ...
