Pyrazolobenzothiazine-based carbothioamides as new structural leads for the inhibition of monoamine oxidases: design, synthesis, in vitro bioevaluation and molecular docking studies.

Abstract: Two new series of pyrazolobenzothiazine-based carbothioamides (3a-o and 4a-o) were synthesized using saccharin as the starting material. The synthesized derivatives were investigated for their ability to inhibit monoamine oxidases (MAO). Compound 3b was found to be a very potent MAO-A inhibitor with an IC50 value of 0.003 ± 0.0007 μM, while compound 4d was the most effective inhibitor of MAO-B having an IC50 value of 0.02 ± 0.001 μM. Molecular docking studies were performed to identify the probable binding modes in the active site of the monoamine oxidase enzymes. The synthetic and computational investigations in the current work suggested that these newly identified inhibitors may serve as a powerful starting point for the exploration and optimization of potential therapeutic agents targeting Parkinson's disease.

Zinc Oxide-Based Self-Powered Potentiometric Chemical Sensors for Biomolecules and Metal Ions.

Abstract: Advances in the miniaturization and portability of the chemical sensing devices have always been hindered by the external power supply problem, which has focused new interest in the fabrication of self-powered sensing devices for disease diagnosis and the monitoring of analytes. This review describes the fabrication of ZnO nanomaterial-based sensors synthesized on different conducting substrates for extracellular detection, and the use of a sharp borosilicate glass capillary (diameter, d = 700 nm) to grow ZnO nanostructures for intracellular detection purposes in individual human and frog cells. The electrocatalytic activity and fast electron transfer properties of the ZnO materials provide the necessary energy to operate as well as a quick sensing device output response, where the role of the nanomorphology utilized for the fabrication of the sensor is crucial for the production of the operational energy. Simplicity, design, cost, sensitivity, selectivity and a quick and stable response are the most important features of a reliable sensor for routine applications. The review details the extra- and intra-cellular applications of the biosensors for the detection and monitoring of different metallic ions present in biological matrices, along with the biomolecules glucose and cholesterol.

Synthesis, molecular docking and antiviral screening of novel N′ -substitutedbenzylidene-2-(4-methyl-5,5-dioxido-3-phenylbenzo[ e ]pyrazolo[4,3- c ][1,2]thiazin-1(4 H )-yl)acetohydrazides

Abstract: N′-Substitutedbenzylidene-2-(4-methyl-5,5-dioxido-3-phenylbenzo[e]pyrazolo[4,3-c][1,2]thiazin-1(4H)-yl)acetohydrazides (7a–u) were synthesized through a multistep reaction. The final compounds were screened for anti-HIV-1 and cytotoxic activities. Among these compounds, 7l and 7m exhibited the most significant anti-HIV-1 activity with EC50 values of 5.4 and 3.3 μM, respectively, while 7j showed moderate anti-HIV activity with an EC50 value 17.1 μM. Molecular docking into HIV-1 Reverse Transcriptase also showed the best fit for 7l and 7m followed by 7j. In addition, compounds 7b, 7f, 7h, 7k, 7o, and 7s exhibited no toxicity in all the three cell lines used i.e., primary human PBM, CEM, and Vero cells, while 7e, 7g, 7i, 7n, 7p, 7q, and 7t exhibited no cytotoxic activity in primary human PBM cells. Moreover, it was found through molecular docking that compounds 7l, 7m, and 7j bound efficiently in the NTP-binding pocket of HIV-1 Reverse Transcriptase. The structure–activity relationship established on these results would facilitate the further development of new HIV inhibitors based on this skeleton.
