[PMID: 34577175 PMCID: PMC8470015 DOI: 10.3390/molecules26185705] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/09/2021] [Revised: 09/16/2021] [Accepted: 09/18/2021] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Nitric oxide (NO) is a key signaling molecule that acts in various physiological processes such as cellular metabolism, vasodilation and transmission of nerve impulses. A wide number of vascular diseases as well as various immune and neurodegenerative disorders were found to be directly associated with a disruption of NO production in living organisms. These issues justify a constant search of novel NO-donors with improved pharmacokinetic profiles and prolonged action. In a series of known structural classes capable of NO release, heterocyclic NO-donors are of special importance due to their increased hydrolytic stability and low toxicity. It is no wonder that synthetic and biochemical investigations of heterocyclic NO-donors have emerged significantly in recent years. In this review, we summarized recent advances in the synthesis, reactivity and biomedical applications of promising heterocyclic NO-donors (furoxans, sydnone imines, pyridazine dioxides, azasydnones). The synthetic potential of each heterocyclic system along with biochemical mechanisms of action are emphasized.

Adamantane derivatives as potential inhibitors of p37 major envelope protein and poxvirus reproduction. Design, synthesis and antiviral activity. Eur J Med Chem 2021; 221:113485. [PMID: 33965861 PMCID: PMC9533879 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejmech.2021.113485] [Citation(s) in RCA: 20] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/12/2021] [Revised: 04/13/2021] [Accepted: 04/15/2021] [Indexed: 11/07/2022]
Abstract
Currently, smallpox, caused by the variola virus belonging to the poxvirus family, has been completely eradicated according to the WHO. However, other representatives of poxviruses, such as vaccinia virus, cowpox virus, ectromelia virus, monkeypox virus, mousepox virus and others, remain in the natural environment and can infect both animals and humans. The pathogens of animal diseases, belonging to the category with a high epidemic risk, have already caused several outbreaks among humans, and can, in an unfavorable combination of circumstances, cause not only an epidemic, but also a pandemic. Despite the fact that there are protocols for the treatment of poxvirus infections, the targeted design of new drugs will increase their availability and expand the arsenal of antiviral chemotherapeutic agents. One of the potential targets of poxviruses is the p37 protein, which is a tecovirimat target. This protein is relatively small, has no homologs among proteins of humans and other mammals and is necessary for the replication of viral particles, which makes it attractive target for virtual screening. Using the I-TASSER modelling and molecular dynamics refinement the p37 orthopox virus protein model was obtained and its was confirmed by ramachandran plot analysis and superimposition of the model with the template protein with similar function. A virtual library of adamantane containing compounds was generated and a number of potential inhibitors were chosen from virtual library using molecular docking. Several compounds bearing adamantane moiety were synthesized and their biological activity was tested in vitro on vaccinia, cowpox and mousepox viruses. The new compounds inhibiting vaccinia virus replication with IC50 concentrations between 0.133 and 0.515 μM were found as a result of the research. The applied approach can be useful in the search of new inhibitors of orthopox reproduction. The proposed approach may be suitable for the design of new poxvirus inhibitors containing cage structural moiety.

Abstract
An overview of the different heterocyclic NO-releasing compounds is given. Mesoionic heterocycles like sydnone imines are one example. This class is discussed on the synthesis and the mechanism of NO formation from Molsidomine and its first metabolite SIN-1. Furthermore, 1,2,3,4 oxatriazolium olates and imidates are presented in an example of the synthesis of GEA-3175. Heterocyclic N-oxides are another group of compounds capable of NO release under certain conditions. This class is discussed in the example of furoxane carboxamides like CAS-1609, and some SAR-data show the great impact of intramolecular hydrogen bridges on their in vitro activity. Each class of compounds requires different cofactors for NO release: sydnone imines need oxidants like oxygen, furoxanes are converted to NO via reaction with thioles.
