Abstract
A multitarget drug design approach is actively developing in modern medicinal chemistry and pharmacology, especially with regard to multifactorial diseases such as cardiovascular diseases, cancer, and neurodegenerative diseases. A detailed study of many well-known drugs developed within the single-target approach also often reveals additional mechanisms of their real pharmacological action. One of the multitarget drug design approaches can be the identification of the basic pharmacophore models corresponding to a wide range of the required target ligands. Among such models in the group of cardioprotectors is the linked biaromatic system. This review develops the concept of a "basic pharmacophore" using the biaromatic pharmacophore of cardioprotectors as an example. It presents an analysis of possible biological targets for compounds corresponding to the biaromatic pharmacophore and an analysis of the spectrum of biological targets for the five most known and most studied cardioprotective drugs corresponding to this model, and their involvement in the biological effects of these drugs.

Abstract
The high affinity dopamine D4 receptor ligand APH199 and derivatives thereof exhibit bias toward the Gi signaling pathway over β-arrestin recruitment compared to quinpirole. Based on APH199, two novel groups of D4 subtype selective ligands were designed and evaluated, in which the original benzyl phenylsemicarbazide substructure was replaced by either a biphenylmethyl urea or a biphenyl urea moiety. Functional assays revealed a range of different bias profiles among the newly synthesized compounds, namely, with regard to efficacy, potency, and GRK2 dependency, in which bias factors range from 1 to over 300 and activation from 15% to over 98% compared to quinpirole. These observations demonstrate that within bias, an even more precise tuning toward a particular profile is possible, which─in a general sense─could become an important aspect in future drug development. Docking studies enabled further insight into the role of the ECL2 and the EPB in the emergence of bias, thereby taking advantage of the diversity of functionally selective D4 agonists now available.

Abstract
Through the linkage of two muscarinergic M3 receptor ligands to fluorescent tetramethylrhodamine- and cyanine-5-type dyes, two novel tool compounds, OFH5503 and OFH611, have been developed. Based on the suitable binding properties and kinetics related to the M3 subtype, both ligand-dye conjugates were found to be useful tools to determine binding affinities via flow cytometric measurements. In addition, confocal microscopy underlined the comparably low unspecific binding and the applicability for studying M3 receptor expression in cells. Along with the proven usefulness regarding studies on the M3 subtype, the conjugates OFH5503 and OFH611 could, due to their high affinity to the M1 receptor, evolve as even more versatile tools in the field of research on muscarinergic receptors.

Abstract
Discovery of an anticancer medicine using a single target protein has often been unsuccessful due to the complexity of pathogenic mechanisms as well as the presence of redundant signaling pathways. In this work, we attempted to find promising anticancer drug candidates by simultaneously targeting casein kinase 1 delta (CK1δ) and muscarinic acetylcholine receptor M3 (M3R). Through the structure-based virtual screening and de novo design with the modified potential function for protein-ligand binding, a series of benzo[4,5]imidazo[1,2-a][1,3,5]triazine-2-amine (BITA) derivatives were identified as CK1δ inhibitors and also as M3R antagonists. The biochemical potencies of these bifunctional molecules reached the nanomolar and low-micromolar levels with respect to CK1δ and M3R, respectively. A common interaction feature in the calculated CK1δ-inhibitor and M3R-antagonist complexes is that the BITA moiety is well-stabilized in the orthosteric site of M3R and the hinge region of CK1δ through the establishment of the three hydrogen bonds and the hydrophobic contacts in the vicinity. The computational and experimental results found in this work exemplify the efficiency of kinase and GPCR polypharmacology in developing anticancer medicines.
