Abstract
Aberrant calcium signaling is associated with a diverse range of pathologies, including cardiovascular and neurodegenerative diseases, diabetes, cancer, etc… So, therapeutic strategies based on the correction of pathological calcium signaling are becoming extremely in demand. Thus, the development of novel calcium signaling modulators remains highly actual. Previously we found that 1,2,3,4-dithiadiazole derivative 3-(4-nitrophenyl)-5-phenyl-3H-1,2,3,4-dithiadiazole-2-oxide can strongly reduce calcium uptake through store-operated calcium (SOC) channels. Here we tested several structurally related compounds and found that most of them can effectively affect SOC channels and attenuate calcium content in the endoplasmic reticulum, thus, establishing 1,2,3,4-dithiadiazoles as a novel class of SOC channel inhibitors. Comparing different 1,2,3,4-dithiadiazole derivatives we showed that previously published 3-(4-nitrophenyl)-5-phenyl-3H-1,2,3,4-dithiadiazole-2-oxide and newly tested 3-(3,5-difluorophenyl)-5-phenyl-3H-1,2,3,4-dithiadiazole 2-oxide demonstrated the highest efficacy of SOC entry reduction, supposing the important role of electron-withdrawing substituents to realize the inhibitory activity of 1,2,3,4-dithiadiazoles.

Abstract
Over the past decade, thiazines, thiadiazoles, and thiohydrazides have attracted increasing attention due to their sedative, antimicrobial, antiviral, antifungal, and antitumor activities. The clinical efficacy of such drugs, as well as the possibility of developing resistance to antimicrobials, will depend on addressing a number of fundamental problems, including the role of membrane lipids during their interaction with plasma membranes. The effects of the eight 1,3- thiazine-, 1,2,3,4- dithiadiazole-, and thiohydrazide-related compounds on the physical properties of model lipid membranes and the effects on reconstituted ion channels induced by the polyene macrolide antimycotic nystatin and antifungal cyclic lipopeptides syringomycin E and fengycin were observed. We found that among the tested agents, the fluorine-containing compound N′-(3,5-difluorophenyl)-benzenecarbothiohydrazide (C6) was the most effective at increasing the electric barrier for anion permeation into the hydrophobic region of the membrane and reducing the conductance of anion-permeable syringomycin pores. A decrease in the membrane boundary potential with C6 adsorption also facilitated the immersion of positively charged syringomycin molecules into the lipid bilayer and increases the pore-forming ability of the lipopeptide. Using differential scanning microcalorimetry, we showed that C6 led to disordering of membrane lipids, possibly by potentiating positive curvature stress. Therefore, we used C6 as an agonist of antifungals forming the pores that are sensitive to membrane curvature stress and lipid packing, i.e., nystatin and fengycin. The dramatic increase in transmembrane current induced by syringomycin E, nystatin, and fengycin upon C6 treatment suggests its potential in combination therapy for treating invasive fungal infections.
