An essential target for COVID-19 is the main protease of SARS-CoV-2 (Mpro). With objective targeting this receptor, a novel set pyrido[1,2-a]pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidines with terminal carboxamide fragments was designed, synthesized, and considered as an initial motif creation effective pan-coronavirus inhibitors. Accordingly, nine derivatives (21-29) have been introduced in vitro assay to evaluate their antiviral activity cytotoxicity effect against virus using Vero cells. The obtained data revealed that majority these showed potent cellular anti-COVID-19 prevent viral growth by more than 90% at two different concentrations weak or even no detectable cytotoxic on Extensive molecular docking simulations highlighted proper non-covalent interaction new compounds within binding pocket Mpro potential activity. In all synthesized indicated 25 29 promising inhibitory IC50 values low micromolar concentrations. dynamic simulation results predicted stability compound cavity hence supported high shown assay.

COVID-19 infection is now considered one of the leading causes human death. As an attempt towards discovery novel medications for pandemic, nineteen compounds containing 1,2,3-triazole side chains linked to phenylpyrazolone scaffold and terminal lipophilic aryl parts with prominent substituent functionalities were designed synthesized via a click reaction based on our previous work. The assessed using in vitro effect growth SARS-CoV-2 virus-infested Vero cells different compound concentrations: 1 10 μM. data revealed that most these derivatives showed potent cellular anti-COVID-19 activity inhibited viral replication by more than 50% no or weak cytotoxic harboring cells. In addition, assay employing SARS-CoV-2-Main protease inhibition was done test inhibitors' ability block common primary virus as mode action. obtained results show non-linker analog 6h two amide-based linkers 6i 6q active IC50 values 5.08, 3.16, 7.55 μM, respectively, against comparison selective antiviral agent GC-376.

Inhibition of α-glucosidase and α-amylase are key tactics for managing blood glucose levels. Currently, stronger, more accessible inhibitors needed to treat diabetes. Indeno[1,2-b] quinoxalines-carrying thiazole hybrids 1–17 were created described using NMR. All analogues tested hypoglycaemic effect against STZ-induced diabetes in mice. Compounds 4, 6, 8, 16 the most potent among synthesised analogues. These examined their effects on plasma insulin, urea, creatinine, GSH, MDA, ALT, AST, total cholesterol.

Treatment options for the management of breast cancer are still inadequate. This inadequacy is attributed to lack effective targeted medications, often resulting in recurrence metastatic disorders. Cumulative evidence suggests that epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR-TK) and cyclin-dependent kinases-9 (CDK-9) overexpression correlates with worse overall survival patients. Pyranopyrazole pyrazolone privileged development anticancer agents. Inspired by this proven scientific fact, we report here synthesis two new series suggested molecules incorporating both heterocycles together their characterization IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR-DEPT, X-ray diffraction methods. An attempt get pyranopyrazole-gold complexes was conducted but unexpectedly yielded benzylidene-2,4-dihydro-3H-pyrazol-3-one instead. unexpected result confirmed crystallographic analysis. All newly synthesized compounds were assessed anti-proliferative activity against different human cells, obtained results compared reference drug Staurosporine. The target revealed variable cytotoxicity IC50 at a low micromolar range superior selectivity indices. Target enzyme EGFR-TK CDK-9 assays showed 22 23 effectively inhibited biological targets values 0.143 0.121 µM, respectively. Molecular docking experiments molecular dynamics simulation also further rationalize vitro results.Communicated Ramaswamy H. Sarma.

All the previously reported phenylpyrazoles as carbonic anhydrase inhibitors (CAIs) were found to have small sizes and high levels of flexibility, hence showed low selectivity profiles toward a particular isoform CA. Herein, we report development more rigid ring system bearing sulfonamide hydrophilic head lipophilic tail develop novel molecules that are suggested better special CA isoform. Accordingly, three sets pyrano[2,3-c]pyrazoles attached with aryl hydrophobic synthesized enhance specific human anhydrases (hCAs). The impact both attachments on potency has been extensively discussed in terms vitro cytotoxicity evaluation under hypoxic conditions, structure-activity relationship enzyme assay. new candidates displayed good cytotoxic activities against breast colorectal carcinomas. Results assay demonstrated preferential compounds 22, 24 27 inhibit IX hCAs selectively. Wound-healing also performed revealed potential decrease wound closure percentage MCF-7 cells.
