Protein-tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B) is a negative regulator of insulin signaling pathway and has been validated as a therapeutic target for type 2 diabetes. A wide variety of scaffolds have been included in the structure of PTP1B inhibitors, one of them is the benzimidazole nucleus. Here, we report the design and synthesis of a new series of di- and tri- substituted benzimidazole derivatives including their kinetic and structural characterization as PTP1B inhibitors and hypoglycemic activity. Results show that compounds 43, 44, 45, and 46 are complete mixed type inhibitors with a Ki of 12.6 μM for the most potent (46). SAR type analysis indicates that a chloro substituent at position 6(5), a β-naphthyloxy at position 5(6), and a p-benzoic acid attached to the linker 2-thioacetamido at position 2 of the benzimidazole nucleus, was the best combination for PTP1B inhibition and hypoglycemic activity. In addition, molecular dynamics studies suggest that these compounds could be potential selective inhibitors from other PTPs such as its closest homologous TCPTP, SHP-1, SHP-2 and CDC25B. Therefore, the compounds reported here are good hits that provide structural, kinetic, and biological information that can be used to develop novel and selective PTP1B inhibitors based on benzimidazole scaffold.

Adenosine acts as a powerful signaling molecule via four distinct G protein-coupled receptors, designated A1, A2A, A2B and A3 adenosine receptors (ARs). A2A and A2B ARs are Gs-coupled, while A1 and A3 ARs inhibit cAMP production via Gi proteins. Antagonists for A1 and A3 ARs may be useful for the treatment of (neuro)inflammatory diseases including acute kidney injury and kidney failure, pulmonary diseases, and Alzheimer's disease. In the present study, we optimized the versatile 2-amino-4-phenylthiazole scaffold by introducing substituents at N2 and C5 to obtain A1 and A3 AR antagonists including dual-target compounds. Selective A1 antagonists with (sub)nanomolar potency were produced, e.g. 11 and 13. These compounds showed species differences being significantly more potent at the rat as compared to the human A1 AR, and were characterized as inverse agonists. Several potent and selective A3 AR antagonists, e.g. 7, 8, 17 and 22 (Ki values of 5–9 nM at the human A3 AR) were prepared, which were much less potent at the rat orthologue. Moreover, dual A1/A3 antagonists (10, 18) were developed showing Ki values between 8 and 42 nM. Docking and molecule dynamic simulation studies using the crystal structure of the A1 AR and a homology model of the A3 AR were performed to rationalize the observed structure-activity relationships.

Non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTIs) are recommended components of preferred combination antiretroviral therapies used for the treatment of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. These regimens are extremely effective in suppressing virus replication. Recently, our research group identified some N1-aryl-2-arylthioacetamido-benzimidazoles as a novel class of NNRTIs. In this research work we report the design, the synthesis and the structure–activity relationship studies of new compounds (20–34) in which some structural modifications have been introduced in order to investigate their effects on reverse transcriptase (RT) inhibition and to better define the features needed to increase the antiviral activity. Most of the new compounds proved to be highly effective in inhibiting both RT enzyme at nanomolar concentrations and HIV-1 replication in MT4 cells with minimal cytotoxicity. Among them, the most promising N1-aryl-2-arylthioacetamido-benzimidazoles and N1-aryl-2-aryloxyacetamido-benzimidazoles were also tested toward a panel of single- and double-mutants strain responsible for resistance to NNRTIs, showing in vitro antiviral activity toward single mutants L100I, K103N, Y181C, Y188L and E138K. The best results were observed for derivatives 29 and 33 active also against the double mutants F227L and V106A. Computational approaches were applied in order to rationalize the potency of the new synthesized inhibitors.
