New 5-Hydroxycoumarin-Based Tyrosyl-DNA Phosphodiesterase I Inhibitors Sensitize Tumor Cell Line to Topotecan. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:ijms24119155. [PMID: 37298106 DOI: 10.3390/ijms24119155] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/29/2023] [Revised: 05/05/2023] [Accepted: 05/19/2023] [Indexed: 06/12/2023] Open
Abstract
Tyrosyl-DNA-phosphodiesterase 1 (TDP1) is an important enzyme in the DNA repair system. The ability of the enzyme to repair DNA damage induced by a topoisomerase 1 poison such as the anticancer drug topotecan makes TDP1 a promising target for complex antitumor therapy. In this work, a set of new 5-hydroxycoumarin derivatives containing monoterpene moieties was synthesized. It was shown that most of the conjugates synthesized demonstrated high inhibitory properties against TDP1 with an IC50 in low micromolar or nanomolar ranges. Geraniol derivative 33a was the most potent inhibitor with IC50 130 nM. Docking the ligands to TDP1 predicted a good fit with the catalytic pocket blocking access to it. The conjugates used in non-toxic concentration increased cytotoxicity of topotecan against HeLa cancer cell line but not against conditionally normal HEK 293A cells. Thus, a new structural series of TDP1 inhibitors, which are able to sensitize cancer cells to the topotecan cytotoxic effect has been discovered.

New Inhibitors of Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) Replication Based on Monoterpene-Substituted Arylcoumarins. Molecules 2023; 28:molecules28062673. [PMID: 36985645 PMCID: PMC10054240 DOI: 10.3390/molecules28062673] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/13/2023] [Revised: 03/10/2023] [Accepted: 03/12/2023] [Indexed: 03/18/2023] Open
Abstract
Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) causes annual epidemics of respiratory infection. Usually harmless to adults, the RSV infection can be dangerous to children under 3 years of age and elderly people over 65 years of age, often causing serious problems, even death. At present, there are no vaccines and specific chemotherapeutic agents for the treatment of this disease, so the search for low-molecular weight compounds to combat RSV is a challenge. In this work, we have shown, for the first time, that monoterpene-substituted arylcoumarins are efficient RSV replication inhibitors at low micromolar concentrations. The most active compound has a selectivity index of about 200 and acts most effectively at the early stages of infection. The F protein of RSV is a potential target for these compounds, which is also confirmed by molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulation data.

Abstract
The ability of actinobacteria of the genus Rhodococcus to biotransform the monoterpenoid (–)-isopulegol has been established for the first time. R. rhodochrous strain IEGM 1362 was selected as a bacterium capable of metabolizing (–)-isopulegol to form new, previously unknown, 10-hydroxy (2) and 10-carboxy (3) derivatives, which may presumably have antitumor activity and act as respiratory stimulants and cancer prevention agents. In the experiments, optimal conditions were selected to provide the maximum target catalytic activity of rhodococci. Using up-to-date (TEM, AFM-CLSM, and EDX) and traditional (cell size, roughness, and zeta potential measurements) biophysical and microbiological methods, it was shown that (–)-isopulegol and halloysite nanotubes did not negatively affect the bacterial cells. The data obtained expand our knowledge of the biocatalytic potential of rhodococci and their possible involvement in the synthesis of pharmacologically active compounds from plant derivatives.

Abstract
Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a critical cause of infant mortality. However, there are no vaccines and adequate drugs for its treatment. We showed, for the first time, that O-linked coumarin-monoterpene conjugates are effective RSV inhibitors. The most potent compounds are active against both RSV serotypes, A and B. According to the results of the time-of-addition experiment, the conjugates act at the early stages of virus cycle. Based on molecular modelling data, RSV F protein may be considered as a possible target.

Abstract
We synthesized fluoro- and hydroxy-containing octahydro-2H-chromenes by the Prins reaction starting from a monoterpenoid (-)-isopulegol and a wide range of aromatic aldehydes in the presence of the BF3∙Et2O/H2O system acting as both an acid catalyst and a fluorine source. Activity of the produced compounds against the influenza A/Puerto Rico/8/34 (H1N1) virus was studied. The highest activity was demonstrated by fluoro- (11i) and hydroxy-containing (10i) derivatives of 2,4,6-trimethoxybenzaldehyde. The most pronounced virus-inhibiting effect of compounds 10i and 11i was observed at an early stage of infection. These compounds were supposed to be capable of binding to viral hemagglutinin, which is an agreement with data on the effect of compounds 10i and 11i on the viral fusogenic activity as well as by molecular docking studies.

Abstract
We synthesized a series of amides with a benzo[d][1,3]dithiol core. The chemical library of compounds was tested for their cytotoxicity and inhibiting activity against influenza virus A/California/07/09 (H1N1)pdm09 in MDCK cells. For each compound, values of CC50, IC50 and selectivity index (SI) were determined. Compounds of this structure type were for the first time found to exhibit anti-influenza activity. The structure of an amide substituent in the tested compounds was demonstrated to have a significant effect on their activity against the H1N1 influenza virus and cytotoxicity. Compound 4d has a high selectivity index of about 30. 4d was shown to be most potent at early stages of viral cycle. In direct fusogenic assay it demonstrated dose-dependent activity against fusogenic activity of hemagglutinin of influenza virus. Based on molecular docking and regression analysis data, viral hemagglutinin was suggested as possible target for these new antiviral agents.

Abstract
Currently, the spectrum of agents against orthopoxviruses, in particular smallpox, is very narrow. Despite the fact that smallpox is well controlled, there is, for many reasons, a real threat of epidemics associated with this or a similar virus. In order to search for new low molecular weight orthopoxvirus inhibitors, a series of amides combining adamantane and monoterpene moieties were synthesized using 1- and 2-adamantanecarboxylic acids as well as myrtenic, citronellic and camphorsulfonic acids as acid components. The produced compounds exhibited high activity against the vaccinia virus (an enveloped virus belonging to the poxvirus family), which was combined with low cytotoxicity. Some compounds had a selectivity index higher than that of the reference drug cidofovir; the highest SI = 1123 was exhibited by 1-adamantanecarboxylic acid amide containing the (-)-10-amino-2-pinene moiety. The produced compounds demonstrated inhibitory activity against other orthopoxviruses: cowpox virus (SI = 30-406) and ectromelia virus (mousepox virus, SI = 39-707).

Abstract
Semi-synthetic triterpenoids, bearing cyano enone functionality in ring A, are considered to be novel promising therapeutic agents with complex inhibitory effects on tissue damage, inflammation and tumor growth. Previously, we showed that the cyano enone-containing 18βH-glycyrrhetinic acid derivative soloxolone methyl (SM) effectively suppressed the inflammatory response of macrophages in vitro and the development of influenza A-induced pneumonia and phlogogen-stimulated paw edema in vivo. In this work, we reported the synthesis of a novel 18βH-glycyrrhetinic acid derivative trioxolone methyl (TM), bearing a 2-cyano-3-oxo-1(2)-en moiety in ring A and a 12,19-dioxo-9(11),13(18)-dien moiety in rings C, D, and E. TM exhibited a high inhibitory effect on nitric oxide (II) production by lipopolysaccharide-stimulated J774 macrophages in vitro and dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced colitis in mice, displaying higher anti-inflammatory activity in comparison with SM. TM effectively suppressed the DSS-induced epithelial damage and inflammatory infiltration of colon tissue, the hyperproduction of colonic neutral mucin and TNFα and increased glutathione synthesis. Our in silico analysis showed that Akt1, STAT3 and dopamine receptor D2 can be considered as mediators of the anti-colitic activity of TM. Our findings provided valuable information for a better understanding of the anti-inflammatory activity of cyano enone-bearing triterpenoids and revealed TM as a promising anti-inflammatory candidate.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE The DNA repair enzyme tyrosyl-DNA-phosphodiesterase 1 (TDP1) is a current inhibition target to improve the efficacy of cancer chemotherapy. Previous studies showed that compounds combining adamantane and monoterpenoid fragments are active against TDP1 enzyme. This investigation is focused on the synthesis of monoterpenoid derived esters of 1-adamantane carboxylic acid as TDP1 inhibitors. METHODS New esters were synthesized by the interaction between 1-adamantane carboxylic acid chloride and monoterpenoid alcohols. The esters were tested against TDP1 and its binding to the enzyme was modeling. RESULTS 13 Novel ester-based TDP1 inhibitors were synthesized with yields of 21-94%; of these, nine esters had not been previously described. A number of the esters were found to inhibit TDP1, with IC50 values ranging from 0.86-4.08 µM. Molecular modelling against the TDP1 crystal structure showed a good fit of the active esters in the catalytic pocket, explaining their potency. A non-toxic dose of ester, containing a 3,7- dimethyloctanol fragment, was found to enhance the cytotoxic effect of topotecan, a clinically used anti-cancer drug, against the human lung adenocarcinoma cell line A549. CONCLUSION The esters synthesized were found to be active against TDP1 in the lower micromolar concentration range, with these findings being corroborated by molecular modeling. Simultaneous action of the ester synthesized from 3,7-dimethyloctanol-1 and topotecan revealed a synergistic effect.

Abstract
Tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase 1 (Tdp1) is an important DNA repair enzyme in humans, and a current and promising inhibition target for the development of new chemosensitizing agents due to its ability to remove DNA damage caused by topoisomerase 1 (Top1) poisons such as topotecan and irinotecan. Herein, we report our work on the synthesis and characterization of new Tdp1 inhibitors that combine the arylcoumarin (neoflavonoid) and monoterpenoid moieties. Our results showed that they are potent Tdp1 inhibitors with IC50 values in the submicromolar range. In vivo experiments with mice revealed that compound 3ba (IC50 0.62 µM) induced a significant increase in the antitumor effect of topotecan on the Krebs-2 ascites tumor model. Our results further strengthen the argument that Tdp1 is a druggable target with the potential to be developed into a clinically-potent adjunct therapy in conjunction with Top1 poisons.

Abstract
We previously showed that monoterpenoid (1R,2R,6S)-3-methyl-6-(prop-1-en-2-yl)cyclohex-3-ene-1,2-diol 1 alleviates motor manifestations of Parkinson's disease in animal models. In the present study, we designed and synthesized monoepoxides of (1R,2R,6S)-3-methyl-6-(prop-1-en-2-yl)cyclohex-3-ene-1,2-diol 1 and evaluated their biological activity in the MPTP mouse model of Parkinson's disease. We also assessed the ability of these compounds to penetrate the blood-brain barrier (BBB). According to these data, we chose epoxide 4, which potently restored the locomotor activity in MPTP-treated mice and efficiently penetrated the BBB, to further explore its potential mechanism of action. Epoxide 4 was found to robustly promote the survival of cultured dopamine neurons, protect dopamine neurons against toxin-induced degeneration, and trigger the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling cascade in cells of neuronal origin. Meanwhile, neither the survival-promoting effect nor MAPK activation was observed in non-neuronal cells treated with epoxide 4. In the MPTP mouse model of Parkinson's disease, compound 4 increased the density of dopamine neuron fibers in the striatum, which can highlight its potential to stimulate striatal reinnervation and thus halt disease progression. Taken together, these data indicate that epoxide 4 can be a promising compound for further development, not only as a symptomatic but also as a neuroprotective and neurorestorative drug for Parkinson's disease.

Abstract
A number of substituted benzopentathiepin-6-amines and their analogues without a polysulfur ring were synthesized and evaluated in vitro for antimicrobial activity against a panel of reference bacterial and fungal strains. Trifluoroacetamide 14 demonstrated high antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA strain) with a MIC of 4 μg/mL, which was four-fold higher than the activity of a reference drug amoxicillin. This compound was also most active against the Candida albicans fungus (MIC of 1 μg ml-1), whereas amide 17 containing a morpholine substituent was most active against the Cryptococcus neoformans fungus (MIC of 2 μg ml-1). These compounds have no hemolytic activity and are low cytotoxic. Replacement of the pentathiepine ring with 1,3-dithiolan-2-one or 1,3-dithiolane moieties leads to loss of antimicrobial activity. Based on the QSAR analysis and molecular docking data, bacterial DNA ligase might be one of the targets for the antibacterial activity of substituted benzopentathiepin-6-amines against S. aureus.

Abstract
The ability of a number of nitrogen-containing compounds that simultaneously carry the adamantane and monoterpene moieties to inhibit Tdp1, an important enzyme of the DNA repair system, is studied. Inhibition of this enzyme has the potential to overcome chemotherapeutic resistance of some tumor types. Compound (+)-3c synthesized from 1-aminoadamantane and (+)-myrtenal, and compound 4a produced from 2-aminoadamantane and citronellal were found to be most potent as they inhibited Tdp1 with IC50 values of 6 and 3.5 µM, respectively. These compounds proved to have low cytotoxicity in colon HCT-116 and lung A-549 human tumor cell lines (CC50 > 50 µM). It was demonstrated that compound 4a at 10 µM enhanced cytotoxicity of topotecan, a topoisomerase 1 poison in clinical use, against HCT-116 more than fivefold and to a lesser extent of 1.5 increase in potency for A-549.

Abstract
A series of secondary amines combining monoterpenoid and aminoadamantane moieties have been synthesized. Their cytotoxic activity against human cancer cells CEM-13, MT-4, and U-937 has been studied for the first time. Most of the obtained compounds exhibited a significant cytotoxic activity with the median cytotoxic dose (CTD50) ranging from 6 to 84 µM. The most promising results were obtained for compound 2b which was synthesized from 1-aminoadamantane and (-)-myrtenal and revealed a high activity against all tumor lines used (CTD50 = 12 ÷ 21 µM) along with low toxicity with respect to MDCK cells (CTD50 = 1500 µM). The synthesized amines do not exert the genotoxic effect on cells of the biosensor strain based on recombinant E. coli cells bearing the pRAC-gfp plasmid.

Camphor-based symmetric diimines as inhibitors of influenza virus reproduction. Bioorg Med Chem 2014; 22:2141-8.

Abstract
Influenza is a continuing world-wide public health problem that causes significant morbidity and mortality during seasonal epidemics and sporadic pandemics. The purpose of the study was synthesis and investigation of antiviral activity of camphor-based symmetric diimines and diamines. A set of C2-symmetric nitrogen-containing camphor derivatives have been synthesized. The antiviral activity of these compounds was studied against rimantadine- and amantadine-resistant influenza virus A/California/7/09 (H1N1)pdm09 in MDCK cells. The highest efficacy in virus inhibiting was shown for compounds 2a-e with cage moieties bound by aliphatic linkers. The therapeutic index (selectivity index) for 2b exceeded that for reference compounds amantadine, deitiforin and rimantadine almost 10-fold. As shown by structure-activity analysis, the length of the linker has a dramatic effect on the toxicity of compounds. Compound 2e with -C12H24- linker exhibited the lowest toxicity (CTD50=2216μM). Derivatives of camphor, therefore, can be considered as prospective antiinfluenza compounds active against influenza viruses resistant to adamantane-based drugs.

Abstract
Earlier it was found, that (1R,2R,6S)-3-methyl-6-(prop-1-en-2-yl)cyclohex-3-ene-1,2-diol (1) possess high antiparkinsonian activity. The N-, O-, S- and C-derivatives at the C-9 position of diol 1 were synthesized in this work. The antiparkinsonian activity of these compounds was studied in MPTP mice models. As a rule, the introduction of substituents containing nitrogen atoms at the C-9 position led to a considerable decrease or loss of antiparkinsonian activity. A derivative of 2-aminoadamantane 8 significantly decreased the locomotor activity time, thus enhancing the symptoms of the parkinsonian syndrome. However the introduction of butyl or propylthio substituents at the C-9 position of diol 1 did not diminish the antiparkinsonian activity comparing to parent compound. This information is important when choosing a route for immobilization of compound 1 to find possible targets.

Abstract
Study of molecular mechanisms of psychotropic drug action is the main aim of molecular psychopharmacology. New synthetic analog of variacin 8-(Trifluoromethyl)-1,2,3,4,5-benzopentathiepin-6-amine (TX-2153) was shown to produce anxiolytic and anticonvulsant effects on mice. Here the effect of chronic administration of TX-2153 on expression of some serotonin-related genes in mouse brain was investigated. The drug (10 mg/kg, per os, 16 days) was administered to adult males of ASC (Antidepressant Sensitive Catalepsy) mouse strain characterizing by alterations in behavior and brain serotonin system. The expression of genes encoding 1) the key enzyme of serotonin synthesis, tryptophan hydroxylase 2 (TPH2), 2) main enzyme of serotonin degradation, monoamine oxydase A (MAOA), 3) 5-HT transporter (SERT) and 4) 5-HT(1A) receptor was studied using quantitative RT-PCR. TX-2153 significantly reduced m-RNA level of 5-HT(1A) receptor and MAOA genes in the midbrain without any effect on expression of these genes in the frontal cortex and hippocampus. The drug failed to affect expression of TPH2 and SERT genes in the midbrain. The result indicates involvement of the brain 5-HT system in the molecular mechanism underlying the effect of TX-2153.

Abstract
Triterpenoids are used for medicinal purposes in many countries. Some, such as oleanolic and glycyrrhetinic acids, are known to be anti-inflammatory and anticarcinogenic. However, the biological activities of these naturally occurring molecules against their particular targets are weak, so the synthesis of new synthetic analogues with enhanced potency is needed. By combining modifications to both the A and C rings of 18βH-glycyrrhetinic acid, the novel synthetic derivative methyl 2-cyano-3,12-dioxo-18βH-olean-9(11),1(2)-dien-30-oate was obtained. This derivative displays high antiproliferative activity in cancer cells, including a cell line with a multidrug-resistance phenotype. It causes cell death by inducing the intrinsic caspase-dependent apoptotic pathway.
