Abstract
The purpose of this review article is to provide an overview of recent achievements in the synthesis of novel steroid sulphatase (STS) inhibitors. STS is a crucial enzyme in the biosynthesis of active hormones (including oestrogens and androgens) and, therefore, represents an extremely attractive molecular target for the development of hormone-dependent cancer therapies. The inhibition of STS may effectively reduce the availability of active hormones for cancer cells, causing a positive therapeutic effect. Herein, we report examples of novel STS inhibitors based on steroidal and nonsteroidal cores that contain various functional groups (e.g. sulphamate and phosphorus moieties) and halogen atoms, which may potentially be used in therapies for hormone-dependent cancers. The presented work also includes examples of multitargeting agents with STS inhibitory activities. Furthermore, the fundamental discoveries in the development of the most promising drug candidates exhibiting STS inhibitory activities are highlighted.

Abstract
Ionic liquids (ILs), a class of materials with unique physicochemical properties, have been used extensively in the fields of chemical engineering, biotechnology, material sciences, pharmaceutics, and many others. Because ILs are very polar by nature, they can migrate into the environment with the possibility of inclusion in the food chain and bioaccumulation in living organisms. However, the chemical natures of ILs are not quintessentially biocompatible. Therefore, the practical uses of ILs must be preceded by suitable toxicological assessments. Among different methods, the use of microorganisms to evaluate IL toxicity provides many advantages including short generation time, rapid growth, and environmental and industrial relevance. This article reviews the recent research progress on the toxicological properties of ILs toward microorganisms and highlights the computational prediction of various toxicity models.

Abstract
In this paper we present two currents of our research. The first goal was the geometry optimization of the structures of derivatives of the alkyl 3-azido-2,3-dideoxy-D-hexopyranosides. Then, we examine the influence of the applied quantum methods on the values of molecular features describing these structures. We use two methods for geometry optimization: the semi-empirical PM7 method and DFT B3LYP/6-31++G* method. The results of comparison parameters of descriptors indicate that there are no statistical differences obtained from both methods. Thus, we recommend the PM7 method for geometry optimization of the derivatives of the alkyl 3-azido-2,3-dideoxy-D-hexopyranosides due to its time and computer resources requirements. Another part of the research was the examination, which groups of descriptors are the most suitable for identifying the similarities in the configuration, the substituents pattern and the molecular mass of 232 examined structures. To explore relation between configuration changes of the 3-azidosaccharides and influence of these changes on the molecular characteristic, we use hierarchical cluster analysis (HCA), where WHIM, 3D-MORSE, RDF and GETAWAY descriptors were selected. Depending on the group of descriptors, molecules are divided in various ways. In general, saccharide' structures are divided into groups based on the configuration of substituents (combination of epimers) or length of the O-glycoside chain. Never before, these saccharides derivatives, were investigated by chemometric analysis. The most problematic issue in experimental and theoretical research is the configuration of substituents in pyranoside ring. Due to vast number of configurations, it is possible to obtain massive amount of diverse structures. This problem concerns us and opens opportunity in investigation the effect of configuration on the parameter of molecules.

An Investigation on the Quantitative Structure-Activity Relationships of the Anti-Inflammatory Activity of Diterpenoid Alkaloids. Molecules 2017; 22:molecules22030363.

Abstract
Diterpenoid alkaloids are extracted from plants. These compounds have broad biological activities, including effects on the cardiovascular system, anti-inflammatory and analgesic actions, and anti-tumor activity. The anti-inflammatory activity was determined by carrageenan-induced rat paw edema and experimental trauma in rats. The number of studies focused on the determination, quantitation and pharmacological properties of these alkaloids has increased dramatically during the past few years. In this work we built a dataset composed of 15 diterpenoid alkaloid compounds with diverse structures, of which 11 compounds were included in the training set and the remaining compounds were included in the test set. The quantitative chemistry parameters of the 15 diterpenoid alkaloids compound were calculated using the HyperChem software, and the quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) of these diterpenoid alkaloid compounds were assessed in an anti-inflammation model based on half maximal effective concentration (EC50) measurements obtained from rat paw edema data. The QSAR prediction model is as follows: log ( E C 50 ) = - 0.0260 × SAA + 0.0086 × SAG + 0.0011 × VOL - 0.0641 × HE - 0.2628 × LogP - 0.5594 × REF - 0.2211 × POL - 0.1964 × MASS + 0.088 × BE + 0.1398 × HF (R² = 0.981, Q² = 0.92). The validated consensus EC50 for the QSAR model, developed from the rat paw edema anti-inflammation model used in this study, indicate that this model was capable of effective prediction and can be used as a reliable computational predictor of diterpenoid alkaloid activity.
