- Oxadiazol-based mTOR inhibitors with potent antiproliferative activities: synthetic and computational modeling
-
Series of N-aryl-1,3,4-oxadiazole-2-amines and 3-aryl-1,2,4-oxadiazole-5-carboxamides derivatives were synthesized as novel chemotherapeutic agents. Synthesized compounds were evaluated for their anticancer activities against several cancer cell lines. Many analogues of 1,3,4-oxadiazole scaffold showed potent antiproliferative activities against breast cancer cell lines, with higher activities toward the metastatic breast cancer cell line (MDA-MB-231). Active analogues were profiled using in-house pharmacophore database in search for molecular target. Active analogues (2j and 2k) were found to fit the pharmacophoric map of ATP-competitive inhibitors of mTOR. The mTOR inhibitory activities of the most active compounds were confirmed with IC50 values in nanomolar range. The N-aryl-1,3,4-oxadiazole-2-amines linked to a basic head is a novel ATP-competitive inhibitors of mTOR with potential activities for treatment of different types of cancer.

- Synthesis, spectroscopic characterization and DNA/HSA binding studies of (phenyl/naphthyl)ethenyl-substituted 1,3,4-oxadiazolyl-1,2,4-oxadiazoles
-
Two new series of conjugated arylethenyl-1,3,4-oxadiazolyl-1,2,4-oxadiazoles were obtained and spectroscopically characterized in terms of UV-Vis absorption, fluorescence and interaction with CT-DNA and Human Serum Albumin (HSA) biomolecules. Phenyl- and 1-naphthyl-bearing examples were analysed, and the spectroscopic properties of its substitution series were compared, showing extensive conjugation in all compounds and absorption differences due to both the aryl-ethenyl subunit and substituted phenyl/phenylene at the 1,2,4-oxadiazole side. Strong binding interactions of the obtained compounds with CT-DNA and moderate HSA-association capability were observed spectroscopically, and further docking studies were performed. This journal is

- Discovery of Novel Aryl Carboxamide Derivatives as Hypoxia-Inducible Factor 1α Signaling Inhibitors with Potent Activities of Anticancer Metastasis
-
In order to discover novel hypoxia-inducible factor 1 (HIF-1) inhibitors for the cancer metastasis treatment, 68 new aryl carboxamide compounds were synthesized and evaluated for their inhibitory effect by dual luciferase-reporter assay. Based on five rounds of investigation on structure-activity relationships step by step, compound 30m was discovered as the most active inhibitor (IC50 = 0.32 μM) with no obvious cytotoxicity (CC50 > 50 μM). It effectively attenuated hypoxia-induced HIF-1α protein accumulation and reduced transcription of vascular epidermal growth factor in a dose-dependent manner, which was further demonstrated by its inhibitory potency on capillary-like tube formation, angiogenesis of zebrafish as well as cellular migration and invasion. Importantly, compound 30m exhibited antimetastatic potency in breast cancer lung metastasis in the mice model, indicating its promising therapeutic potential for prevention and treatment of tumor metastasis. These results definitely merit attention for further rational design of more efficient HIF-1 inhibitors in the future.

- Design, synthesis, and biological evaluation of novel oxadiazole- and thiazole-based histamine H3R ligands
-
Histamine H3 receptor (H3R) is largely expressed in the CNS and modulation of the H3R function can affect histamine synthesis and liberation, and modulate the release of many other neurotransmitters. Targeting H3R with antagonists/inverse agonists may have therapeutic applications in neurodegenerative disorders, gastrointestinal and inflammatory diseases. This prompted us to design and synthesize azole-based H3R ligands, i.e. having oxadiazole- or thiazole-based core structures. While ligands of oxadiazole scaffold were almost inactive, thiazole-based ligands were very potent and several exhibited binding affinities in a nanomolar concentration range. Ligands combining 4-cyanophenyl moiety as arbitrary region, para-xylene or piperidine carbamoyl linkers, and/or pyrrolidine or piperidine basic heads were found to be the most active within this series of thiazole-based H3R ligands. The most active ligands were in silico screened for ADMET properties and drug-likeness. They fulfilled Lipinski's and Veber's rules and exhibited potential activities for oral administration, blood–brain barrier penetration, low hepatotoxicity, combined with an overall good toxicity profile.

- Ferrocenylethenyl-substituted 1,3,4-oxadiazolyl-1,2,4-oxadiazoles: Synthesis, characterization and DNA-binding assays
-
This article describes the synthesis, characterization and DNA-binding assays of a series of oxadiazoles derived from (E)-3-ferrocenylacrylic acid. The compounds were obtained in satisfactory yields and characterized by NMR and high resolution mass spectrometry analysis. Additionally, the X-Ray characterization of compound 8a was investigated. A series of ferrocenylethenyl-substituted 1,3,4-oxadiazolyl-1,2,4-oxadiazoles was prepared and studied by UV-visible and electrochemical techniques. The characteristic signals of the redox-active ferrocene/ferrocenium couple were monitored, which allowed verification of the influence of electron-withdrawing oxadiazole heterocycles and their dependence on the 1,2,4-oxadiazole substituent. Also, DNA-binding experiments were performed by UV-vis and emission titrations with ct-DNA.

- Oxadiazole-carbonylaminothioureas as SIRT1 and SIRT2 inhibitors
-
A new inhibitor for human sirtuin type proteins 1 and 2 (SIRT1 and SIRT2) was discovered through virtual database screening in search of new scaffolds. A series of compounds was synthesized based on the hit compound (3-[[3-(4-tert-butylphenyl)1,2,4-oxadiazole-5-carbonyl]ammo]-1-[3- (trifluoromethyl)phenyl]thiourea). The most potent compound in the series was nearly as potent as the reference compound (6-chloro-2,3,4,9-tetrahydro-1H- carbazole-1-carboxamide).
