2018
The mechanism of the addition of indazole (Ind)&mdash
Synthesis, biological evaluation and chemometric analysis of indazole derivatives. 1,2-Disubstituted 5-nitroindazolinones, new prototypes of antichag…
2012
Chagas disease chemotherapy, currently based on only two drugs, nifurtimox and benznidazole, is far from satisfactory and therefore the development of new antichagasic compounds remains an important goal. On the basis of antichagasic properties previously described for some 1,2-disubstituted 5-nitroindazolin-3- ones (21, 33) and in order to initiate the optimization of activity of this kind of compounds, we have prepared a series of related analogs (22-32, 34-38, 58 and 59) and tested in vitro these products against epimastigote forms of Trypanosoma cruzi. 2-Benzyl-1-propyl (22), 2-benzyl-1-isopropyl (23) and 2-benzyl-1-butyl (24) derivatives have shown high trypanocidal activity and low un…
Synthesis and Antiproliferative Activity of Novel 3-(Indazol-3-yl)-quinazolin-4(3H)-one and 3-(Indazol-3-yl)-benzotriazin-4(3H)-one Derivatives
1999
Several new 3-(indazol-3-yl)-quinazolin-4(3H)-one and 3-(indazol-3-yl)-benzotriazin-4(3H)-one derivatives 5 and 6 were synthesized and tested for their in vitro antiproliferative activity against Raji, K562, and K562-R cell lines. The pharmacological screening showed that some 2, 6, or 7-substituted quinazolinones 5 posses a significant antiproliferative activity, with a percentage growth inhibition ranging from 44.8% to 100% at 50 microM, which was higher than that showed by the unsubstituted derivative 5a previously synthesized. For the most active compounds 5d, 5f, and 5g the IC50 were recorded.
Involvement of Nitric Oxide in Nigrostriatal Dopaminergic System Degeneration : A Neurochemical Study.
2009
The present study was undertaken to explore the involvement of nitric oxide (NO) in the 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) experimental model of Parkinson's disease (PD) in rats. The effect of pharmacological manipulation of the NO system was evaluated on striatal dopamine (DA) level decrease produced by the toxin. 7-nitroindazole (7-NI, 50 mg/kg i.p.; n= 5) pretreatment significantly restored the striatal DA contents. Conversely, 40 mg/kg i.p. of molsidomine (MOL, n= 5), an NO donor, significantly worsened the neurodegeneration (n= 5) and completely counteracted the neuroprotective effect of 7-NI (n= 5). Thus, a crucial role for NO in 6-OHDA induced neurodegeneration is suggested together with a p…
Neuronal nitric oxide synthase is involved in CB/TRPV1 signalling: Focus on control of hippocampal hyperexcitability
2017
Cannabinoids (CB), transient receptors potential vanilloid type 1 (TRPV1) and nitric oxide (NO) were found to be interlinked in regulating some neuronal functions such as membrane excitability and synaptic transmission. TRPV1 play a fundamental role since it represents a synaptic target for CB that triggers several downstream cellular pathways. In this regard, recent evidence report that TRPV1 could influence NO production by modulating neuronal NO synthase (nNOS) activity. In the present research, we pointed to manipulate nNOS function to assess its role on TRPV1 signalling in hyperexcitability conditions elicited in the dentate gyrus of hippocampal formation. The activation of TRPV1 recep…
Design and synthesis of 1-aryl-5-anilinoindazoles as c-Jun N-terminal kinase inhibitors.
2012
Starting from pyrazole HTS hit (1), a series of 1-aryl-1H-indazoles have been synthesized as JNK3 inhibitors with moderate selectivity against JNK1. SAR studies led to the synthesis of 5r as double digital nanomolar JNK3 inhibitor with good in vivo exposure.
Synthesis and antiproliferative activity of triazenoindazoles and triazenopyrazoles: a comparative study.
2003
Several triazenoindazoles and triazenopyrazoles were prepared transforming the appropriate aminoindazoles and aminopyrazoles in the corresponding diazonium salts which were reacted with dimethylamine, diethylamine and pyrrolidine. All the triazenes were tested for their antiproliferative activity against K562, HL60, L1210 and MCF7 cell lines. The biological data showed that the benzocondensation plays a positive role on the antiproliferative activity. The (1)H-NMR spectra showed that the rotational barrier around the N(2)-N(3) bond in the triazene group can be influenced both by the position of this group in the indazole nucleus and by the substitution pattern in the benzene moiety.
Structure-Activity Relationships and X-ray Structures Describing the Selectivity of Aminopyrazole Inhibitors for c-Jun N-terminal Kinase 3 (JNK3) ove…
2009
c-Jun N-terminal kinase 3alpha1 (JNK3alpha1) is a mitogen-activated protein kinase family member expressed primarily in the brain that phosphorylates protein transcription factors, including c-Jun and activating transcription factor-2 (ATF-2) upon activation by a variety of stress-based stimuli. In this study, we set out to design JNK3-selective inhibitors that had >1000-fold selectivity over p38, another closely related mitogen-activated protein kinase family member. To do this we employed traditional medicinal chemistry principles coupled with structure-based drug design. Inhibitors from the aminopyrazole class, such as SR-3576, were found to be very potent JNK3 inhibitors (IC(50) = 7 nm)…
N-(INDAZOLYL)BENZAMIDO DERIVATIVES AS CDK1 INHIBITORS: DESIGN, SYNTHESIS, BIOLOGICAL ACTIVITY, AND MOLECULAR DOCKING STUDIES
2009
A series of N-1H-indazole-1-carboxamides has been synthesized and their effects on both CDK1/cyclin B and the K-562 (human chronic myelogenus leukemia) cell line were evaluated. Using a computational model, we have observed that all the most active compounds 9e, f, i-n exhibited the same binding mode of purvanalol A in the ATP-binding cleft. Although they were able to moderately inhibit the leukemic cell line K-562 and to show inhibitory activity against the Cdc2-Cyclin B kinase in the low micromolar range, they turned out to be non-cytotoxic against HuDe (IZSL) primary cell cultures from human derm. These preliminary results are quite encouraging in view of the low toxicity demonstrated by…
7-Nitroindazole blocks conditioned place preference but not hyperactivity induced by morphine.
2003
The effects of 7-nitroindazole (7-NI), a neural nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) inhibitor, on spontaneous locomotor activity, morphine-induced hyperactivity, acquisition of place conditioning and morphine-induced conditioned place preference (CPP) were evaluated in male mice. In experiment 1, animals treated with 7-NI (25, 50 and 100 mg/kg), morphine (40 mg/kg) or morphine (40 mg/kg) plus 7-NI (25, 50 or 100 mg/kg) were placed in an actimeter for 3 h. In experiment 2, animals treated with the same drugs and doses were conditioned following an unbiased procedure. 7-NI did not affect the spontaneous locomotor activity or hyperactivity induced by morphine. However, the moderate and high doses of …
