- Discovery of benzenesulfonamide derivatives as carbonic anhydrase inhibitors with effective anticonvulsant action: Design, synthesis, and pharmacological evaluation
-
Two series of novel benzenesulfonamide derivatives were synthesized and evaluated for their human carbonic anhydrase (CA, EC 4.2.1.1) inhibitory activity against four isoforms, hCA I, hCA II, hCA VII, and hCA IX. It was found that compounds of both series

- Symmetric molecules with 1,4-triazole moieties as potent inhibitors of tumour-associated lactate dehydrogenase-A
-
A series of symmetric molecules incorporating aryl or pyridyl moieties as central core and 1,4-substituted triazoles as a side bridge was synthesised. The new compounds were investigated as lactate dehydro-genase (LDH, EC 1.1.1.27) inhibitors. The cancer associated LDHA isoform was inhibited with IC50 = 117–174?μM. Seven compounds exhibited better LDHA inhibition (IC50 117–136?μM) compared to known LDH inhibitor–galloflavin (IC50 157?μM).

- Discovery of New Sulfonamide Carbonic Anhydrase IX Inhibitors Incorporating Nitrogenous Bases
-
Incorporation of the purine/pyrimidine moieties as tails to classical benzenesulfonamide scaffolds afforded two series of human (h) carbonic anhydrase (CA, EC 4.2.1.1) inhibitors. The compounds were designed according to the molecular hybridization approach, in order to modulate the interaction with different CA isozymes and exploit the antitumor effect of uracil and adenine derivatives in parallel and synergic mode to the inhibition of the tumor-associated hCA IX. The sulfonamides were investigated as inhibitors of four isoforms, cytosolic hCA I/II and transmembrane hCA IV/IX. The inhibitory profiles were dependent on the length and positioning of the spacer connecting the two pharmacophores. X-ray crystallography demonstrated the binding mode of an inhibitor to hCA II and hCA IX-mimic. Compounds endowed with the best hCA IX inhibitory efficacy were evaluated for antiproliferative activity against HT-29 colon cancer cell lines. The in vitro results suggest multiple mechanisms of action are responsible for the compounds' cytotoxic efficacy.

- Discovery of Potent Carbonic Anhydrase Inhibitors as Effective Anticonvulsant Agents: Drug Design, Synthesis, and in Vitro and in Vivo Investigations
-
Two sets of benzenesulfonamide-based effective human carbonic anhydrase (hCA) inhibitors have been developed using the tail approach. The inhibitory action of these novel molecules was examined against four isoforms: HCA I, hCA II, hCA VII, and hCA XII. Most of the molecules disclosed low to medium nanomolar range inhibition against all tested isoforms. Some of the synthesized derivatives selectively inhibited the epilepsy-involved isoforms hCA II and hCA VII, showing low nanomolar affinity. The anticonvulsant activity of selected sulfonamides was assessed using the maximal electroshock seizure (MES) and subcutaneous pentylenetetrazole (sc-PTZ) in vivo models of epilepsy. These potent CA inhibitors effectively inhibited seizures in both epilepsy models. The most effective compounds showed long duration of action and abolished MES-induced seizures up to 6 h after drug administration. These sulfonamides were found to be orally active anticonvulsants, being nontoxic in neuronal cell lines and in animal models.

- Synthesis of benzensulfonamides linked to quinazoline scaffolds as novel carbonic anhydrase inhibitors
-
Carbonic anhydrase (CA) inhibitory activities of newly synthesized quinazoline-linked benzensulfonamides 10–29, 31, 32, 35, 36, and 45–51 against human CA (hCA) isoforms I, II, IX, and XII were measured and compared to that of acetazolamide (AAZ) as a standard inhibitor. Potent selective inhibitory activity against hCA I was exerted by compounds 14, 15, 17, 19, 20, 21, 24, 25, 28, 29, 31, 35, 45, 47, 49, and 51 with inhibition constant (KIs) values of 39.4–354.7 nM that were nearly equivalent or even greater than that of AAZ (KI, 250.0 nM). Compounds 15, 20, 24, 28, 29, 45 and 47 proved to have inhibitory activities against hCA II with (KIs, 0.73–16.5 nM) that were similar or improved to that of AAZ (KI, 12.0 nM). Compounds 13–29, 31–32, and 45–51 displayed potent hCA IX inhibitory activities (KIs, 1.6–32.2 nM) that were more effective than or nearly equal to AAZ (KI, 25.0 nM). Compounds 14, 15, 20, 21, 26, 45, and 47 exerted potent hCA XII inhibitory activities (KIs, 5.2–9.2 nM), indicating similar CAI activities as compared to that of AAZ (KI, 5.7 nM).
