Due to their versatile chemical transformability, phenols are frequently used building blocks in medicinal chemistry. Their aromatic nature allows directed C(sp2)-H functionalisations, especially at the ortho positions. In contrast, meta substitutions are less well known. As a continuation of our recently described metal-catalysed cross couplings, here we report arylations of two nature-inspired phenol derivatives via C-H or O-H activation. A directing group (DG) was introduced onto C-3-O of 13α-oestrone, and the resulting carbamate was subjected to Cu(II)-catalysed meta arylation using diaryliodonium triflates as reagents. As a result, C-1-arylated derivatives were obtained. The arylation of the 1'-O-butyl protoapigenone proceeded regioselectively at C-5-O. The 1-(4-tert-butylphenyl)-13α-oestrone carbamate and all O-arylated protoflavones substantially inhibited the growth of the applied human cancer cell lines and exerted proapoptotic activity on HeLa cells.

The developed assay demonstrated remarkable sensitivity for detecting the reduction of intracellular PLpro activity while presenting high reliability and performance for inhibitor evaluation and high-throughput screening.

Enzymes belonging to the purine salvage pathway are considered as novel drug targets in this pathogen. Therefore, the main aim of the current study was to determine the antibacterial activity of pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PLP), an active form of vitamin B6, against reference and clinical strains of H. pylori. Using a broad set of microbiological, physicochemical (UV absorption, LC-MS, X-ray analysis) and in silico experiments, we were able to prove that PLP inhibits adenylosuccinate synthetase (AdSS) from H. pylori by the competition with GTP (IC50eq ∼30 nM). This behaviour was attributed to formation of a Schiff base with a lysine residue (a covalent bond with Lys322 in the GTP binding site of AdSS) and was potentiated by the presence of vitamin C. This antibacterial activity of PLP gives hope for its future use against H. pylori.","PeriodicalId":15769,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Enzyme Inhibition and Medicinal Chemistry","volume":"39 1","pages":"2372734"},"PeriodicalIF":5.6,"publicationDate":"2024-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11571797/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141988056","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Additionally, compound 7p displayed favourable drug-likeness properties in silico prediction, and exhibited high BBB permeability in the PAMPA-BBB assay. Compound 7p had good safety in vivo as verified by an acute toxicity assay (LD50 > 1000 mg/kg).
