Aminoimidazo[1,2-a]pyridine Bearing Different Pyrazole Moieties as the Structural Scaffold for the Development of BACE1 Inhibitor; Synthesis, Structural Characterization, and Studies.

Regarding the critical role of amyloid-β plaques in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease, a series of aminoimidazo[1,2-a]pyridine derivatives were designed and synthesized as potential anti-BACE1 agents targeting the production of amyloid-β plaques. In vitro biological results demonstrated that compounds 7b and 7f exhibited the best inhibitory potency against BACE1 with IC values of 22.48 ± 2.

Novel 5-(nitrothiophene-2-yl)-1,3,4-Thiadiazole Derivatives: Synthesis and Antileishmanial Activity against promastigote stage of Leishmania major.

In this study, a series of novel compounds based on 5-(5-nitrothiophene-2-yl)-1,3,4-thiadiazole possessing (het) aryl thio pendant at C-2 position of thiadiazole ring is developed and evaluated as antileishmanial agents using MTT colorimetric assay. 10 New compounds containing aryl and heteroaryl derivatives, started from thiophene-2-carbaldehyde in five steps, were synthesized in good to excellent yields and characterized by H-NMR, C-NMR, and IR spectroscopy. Through the compounds , methylimidazole containing derivative was recognized as the most active compound against promastigotes exhibiting IC values of 11.

Anti-Helicobacter pylori activity and Structure-Activity Relationship study of 2-Alkylthio-5-(nitroaryl)-1,3,4-thiadiazole Derivatives.

Nitro-containing heteroaromatic derivatives structurally related to nitroimidazole (Metronidazole) are being extensively evaluated against Helicobacter pylori isolates. On the other hand, 1,3,4-thiadiazole derivatives have also demonstrated promising antibacterial potential. In present study, we evaluated anti-H.

Safety and efficacy of new 3,6-diaryl-7H-[1,2,4]triazolo[3,4-b][1,3,4]thiadiazine analogs as potential phosphodiesterase-4 inhibitors in NIH-3T3 mouse fibroblastic cells.

A novel series of potential phosphodiesterase-4 (PDE-4) inhibitors, 6-(3-(cyclopentyloxy)-4-methoxyphenyl)-3-aryl-7H-[1,2,4]triazolo[3,4-b][1,3,4]thiadiazines, were developed. Different concentrations of the synthesized compounds were tested on cultured NIH-3T3 cells to determine their safety and efficacy in NIH-3T3 mouse fibroblastic cells in comparison with rolipram, a selective PDE-4 inhibitor. The viability of cells was determined by (3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-di-phenyltetrazoliumbromide (MTT) assay.

5-Nitroimidazole-based 1,3,4-thiadiazoles: heterocyclic analogs of metronidazole as anti-Helicobacter pylori agents.

A series of 5-nitroimidazole-based 1,3,4-thiadiazoles were prepared and tested for antibacterial activity against Helicobacter pylori. The anti-H. pylori activity of target compounds along with the commercially available antimicrobial metronidazole was evaluated by comparing the inhibition-zone diameters determined by the paper disc diffusion bioassay.

Synthesis and antileishmanial activity of 5-(5-nitroaryl)-2-substituted-thio-1,3,4-thiadiazoles.

A series of novel 2-substituted-thio-1,3,4-thiadiazoles bearing a 5-nitroaryl moiety including nitrofuran, nitrothiophene or nitroimidazole at the 5-position and a bulky residue attached to the 2-position of the thiadiazole ring were synthesised as potential antileishmanial agents. The target compounds were evaluated against the promastigote form of Leishmania major using the tetrazolium bromide salt (MTT) colorimetric assay. All test compounds exhibited high activity against L.
