Synthesis, antiproliferative activity, and mechanism of action of a series of 2-{[2E]-3-phenylprop-2-enoylamino}benzamides
2011
Several new 2-{[(2E)-3-phenylprop-2-enoyl]amino}benzamides 12a–s and 17t–v were synthesized by stirring in pyridine the (E)-3-(2-R1-3-R2-4-R3-phenyl)acrylic acid chlorides 11c–k and 11t–v with the appropriate anthranilamide derivatives 10a–c or the 5-iodoanthranilic acid 13. Some of the synthesized compounds were evaluated for their in vitro antiproliferative activity against the full NCI tumor cell line panel derived from nine clinically isolated cancer types (leukemia, non-small cell lung, colon, CNS, melanoma, ovarian, renal, prostate and breast). COMPARE analysis, effects on tubulin polymerization in cells and with purified tubulin, and effects on cell cycle distribution for 17t, the mo…
Amyloid-Beta Induces Different Expression Pattern of Tissue Transglutaminase and Its Isoforms on Olfactory Ensheathing Cells: Modulatory Effect of In…
2021
Abstract Alzhèimer Disease (AD) is characterized by protein aggregates in the brain, including amyloid-beta (Aβ), a substrate for tissue transglutaminase (TG2). We assessed the effect of full native peptide of Aβ (1–42), the fragments (25–35 and 35–25) on TG2 expression and its isoforms (Long and Short) on mouse Olfactory Ensheathing Cells (OECs). The levels of cytoskeletal proteins, Vimentin and Glial Fibrillary Acid Protein, were also studied. The effect of the pre-treatment with Indicaxanthin on cell viability, total Reactive Oxygen Species, superoxide anion and apoptotic pathway activation was assessed. Since Nestin is co-expressed in pluripotent stem cells with cyclin D1, their levels …
Studies of the physicochemical and structural properties of self-assembling cationic pyridine derivatives as gene delivery agents.
2015
New amphiphilic pyridine derivatives containing dodecyloxycarbonyl substituents at positions 3 and 5 and cationic moieties at positions 2 and 6 have been designed and synthesised. Compounds of this type can be considered as synthetic lipids. The corresponding 1,4-dihydropyridine (1,4-DHP) derivatives have earlier been proposed as a promising tool for plasmid DNA (pDNA) delivery in vitro. In this work studies of the self-assembling properties of amphiphilic pyridine derivatives leading to the formation of liposomes, determination of particle size, zeta-potential and critical micelle concentration (CMC) with dynamic light scattering (DLS) measurements are described. Furthermore, thermal analy…
Surface-Enhanced Raman Study of the Interactions between Tripodal Cationic Polyamines and Polynucleotides
2011
Raman and surface-enhanced Raman spectra of new DNA/RNA-binding compounds consisting of three imidazole (Im) and three pyridine (Py) rings connected by tripodal polyaminomethylene linkages were obtained by the near-infrared excitation at 1064 nm. Study of interactions of Im and Py polyamines with single-stranded RNA polynucleotides (poly A, poly G, poly C, poly U), double-stranded DNA polynucleotides (poly dAdT-poly dAdT, poly dGdC-poly dGdC) and calf thymus DNA (ct-DNA) by surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) reveals unambiguous enhancement of the Raman scattering from the small molecules as well as appearance of new bands in spectra associated mainly with nucleobases. The SERS exper…

In silico molecular investigations of pyridine N-Oxide compounds as potential inhibitors of SARS-CoV-2: 3D QSAR, molecular docking modeling, and ADME…
2020
The new coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 virus is causing a severe pneumonia in human, provoking the serious outbreak epidemic CoV-2. Since its appearance in Wuhan, China on December 2019, CoV-2 becomes the biggest challenge the world is facing today, including the discovery of antiviral drug for SARS-CoV-2. In this study, the potential inhibitory of a class of human SARS inhibitors, namely pyridine N-oxide derivatives, against CoV-2 was addressed by quantitative structure-activity relationship 3 D-QSAR. The reliable CoMSIA developed model of 110 pyridine N-oxide based-antiviral compounds, showed Q
1H, 13C and 15N NMR spectral and theoretical studies of some methyl and alkylamino derivatives of 4-halopyridine N-oxides
2006
Abstract Nine new and three earlier known 4-halogen (Cl and Br) substituted pyridine N-oxides have been prepared and their 1 H, 13 C and 15 N NMR chemical shifts assigned based on PFG 1 H, X (X= 13 C and 15 N) HMQC and HMBC experiments as well as the comparison with our earlier results for substituted pyridine N-oxide derivatives. The 15 N resonances of the pyridine nitrogen are 27–40 ppm more shielded in 4-halo-2-alkylamino-6-methyl-5-nitropyridine N-oxide than in parent 4-halopyridine N-oxide. According to quantum chemical ab initio HF/6-311G** calculations the amino tautomer of 4-chloro-2-methylamino-6-methyl-5-nitropyridine N-oxide is more stable than its imino form. Using B3LYP/6-311G*…
Monoamine Oxidase Inhibition by β-Carbolines: A Quantum Chemical Approach
1979
Monoamine oxidase inhibition by beta-carboline derivatives is related to the energy change, delta E, arising from complex formation between the inhibitor and the enzyme. The energy change was expressed in terms of electronic indexes, which were estimated for a set of aromatic beta-carbolines. The electronic indexes were correlated to the experimental activity indexes by a simplified quantum chemical perturbational treatment with a multiple regression procedure. A characteristic structure for the inhibitor-enzyme complex was derived from the correlation. The molecules are linked by two kinds of bond. One involves the lone pyridine nitrogen pair of beta-carbolines; the other is due to a pi-el…
NMR and quantum chemical studies on association of 2,6-bis(acylamino)pyridines with selected imides and 2,2′-dipyridylamine
2010
Association constants of 2,6-bis(alkylcarbonylamino)pyridines (alkyl = methyl or ethyl) and their perfluoroalkyl analogues with succin- and maleimide as well as with 2,2′-dipyridylamine (complementary DAD and ADA hydrogen bonding motifs are responsible for formation of the associates) have been determined by NMR titrations and quantum chemical calculations. Interactions of 2,6-bis(alkylcarbonylamino)pyridines with imides differ by character from these of perfluoroalkyl analogues. Such large difference was not observed for the 2,2′-dipyridylamine associates. Since fluorine atoms cause carbonylamino groups to be stronger hydrogen bond donors, perfluorinated species of this type were found to …
On the Importance of Ligand-Centered Excited States in the Emission of Cyclometalated Ir(III) Complexes
2021
The photophysical behavior of the cyclometalating Ir(III) complexes [Ir(ppy)2(bpy)]+, where Hppy is 2-phenylpyridine and bpy is 2,2′-bipyridine (complex 1), and [Ir(diFppy)2(dtb-bpy)]+, where diFppy is 2-(2,4-difluorophenyl)pyridine and dtb-bpy is 4,4′-di-tert-butyl-2,2′-bipyridine (complex 2), has been theoretically investigated by performing density functional theory calculations. The two complexes share the same molecular skeleton, complex 2 being derived from complex 1 through the addition of fluoro and tert-butyl substituents, but present notable differences in their photophysical properties. The remarkable difference in their emission quantum yields (0.196 for complex 1 in dichloromet…
