- Anti-tyrosinase, antioxidant and antimicrobial activities of hydroxycinnamoylamides
-
Synthetic hydroxycinnamoylamides of amino acids (precursors of aromatic amines) were studied for their antioxidant activity in vitro by two antioxidant assay systems, including 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical and inhibition of lipid peroxidation (LPO). Furthermore, these compounds were tested and compared with their corresponding cinnamoylamides of aromatic amines for their inhibitory activity using mushroom tyrosinase. In addition, five hydroxycinnamoyl amino acid amides were investigated for their antimicrobial effect. Structure-activity relationships analysis disclosed that the presence of catechol rest at amino acid or at benzene moieties of substituted cinnamic acid amides significantly scavenged DPPH radical and inhibited LPO. The results obtained by LPO clearly expressed the positive influence of indole moiety on the activity. Moreover, the existence of p-hydroxy substituted cinnamic acid moiety leads to better tyrosinase inhibition. Amongst the tested compounds, amides of p-coumaroyldopamine or tyramine and their corresponding amino acid precursors are the most potent tyrosinase inhibitors.

- TRYPTAMINE DERIVATIVES, THEIR PREPARATION AND THEIR USE IN GASTROPATHY
-
The synthesis and evaluation of gastroprotective effect of different tryptamine derivatives. Tryptamine derivatives have been synthesized by formation of amide or ester with some known anti oxidant molecules. These derivatives show excellent antioxidant property in vitro. Among all the derivatives the compound SEGA (3a), that was prepared by the combination of serotonin with gallic acid shows the greater antioxidant property than the other synthesized compounds both in vivo and in vitro. SEGA(3a) shows the gastroprotective effect against NSAIDs (indomethacin or diclofenac)-induced gastropathy in dose dependent manner and also accelerates the healing from injury. It prevents the NSAIDs-induced mitochondrial oxidative stress in vivo. This derivative prevents NSAID-induced mitochondrial oxidative stress-mediated apoptosis in vivo by preventing the activation of caspase 9 and caspase-3 and restores NSAIDs-mediated collapse of mitochondroial transmembrane potential and dehydrogenase activity. SEGA (3a) plays an important role as an iron chelator as well as intra mitochondrial ROS scavenger. Thus, SEGA (3a) is a potent antioxidant antiapototic molecule, which efficiently prevents NSAID-induced gastropathy and stress or alcohol-mediated gastric damage.

- Characterization of the binding properties of SIRT2 inhibitors with a N-(3-phenylpropenoyl)-glycine tryptamide backbone
-
SIRT2 inhibitors with a N-(3-phenylpropenoyl)-glycine tryptamide backbone were studied. This backbone has been developed in our group, and it is derived from a compound originally found by virtual screening. In addition, compounds with a smaller 3-phenylpropenoic acid tryptamide backbone were also included in the study. Binding modes for the new compounds and the previously reported compounds were analyzed with molecular modelling methods. The approach, which included a combination of molecular dynamics, molecular docking and cluster analysis, showed that certain docking poses were favourable despite the conformational variation in the target protein. The N-(3-phenylpropenoyl)-glycine tryptamide backbone is also a good backbone for SIRT2 inhibitors, and the series of compounds includes several potent SIRT2 inhibitors.
