The efficient multicomponent synthesis of thiazolidinones from the reaction of arenealdehydes, mercaptoacetic acid and 2-picolilamine or 2-aminopyridine under ultrasound irradiation are reported. The reaction with 2-aminopyridine needs a Lewis acid catalysis to afford the corresponding 2-aryl-3-(pyridin-2-yl)-1,3-thiazolidin-4-ones. All novel compounds were identified and characterized by (1)H and (13)C NMR spectra. Applying the sonochemical methodology, two series of heterocyclic thiazolidinones were synthesized in good yields after short reaction times.

Mycobacidin is an antitubercular antibiotic structurally composed of a sulfur-containing 4-thiazolidinone ring, yet its biosynthesis including the mechanism of sulfur incorporation has remained an open question since its discovery in 1952. In this study, the mycobacidin biosynthetic gene cluster is identified from soil-dwelling , and the corresponding biosynthetic pathway starting with 7-oxoheptanoate is characterized. The radical SAM enzyme MybB catalyzes two sulfur insertion reactions, thereby bridging C and C to complete the 4-thiazolidinone heterocycle as the final step in mycobacidin maturation.

The ever-increasing drug-resistant tuberculosis (TB) has invigorated the focus on the discovery and development of novel therapeutic agents and treatment options. Thiazolidinone-based compounds have shown good antitubercular properties . Here, we report the design and synthesis of a number of new derivatives inspired by the structure of thiazolidine-2,4-dione (TZD).

Purpose: Our study aimed to assess the effects of anticancer 4-thiazolidinone-based free water-insoluble therapeutics Les-3288 and Les-3833 and their waterborne complexes with branched PEG-containing polymeric carriers (A24-PEG550 and A24-PEG750) on immune response.

Methods: Human peripheral blood was used to study in vitro lymphocyte proliferative function, leukocyte phagocytic activity and respiratory burst, and cytokine production.

Results: The binding of the polymer to the anticancer drug Les-3288, which is intended to mitigate the immunosuppressive effects of the free drug on the proliferative activity of T lymphocytes and T-dependent B cells, demonstrated comparable efficacy for both A24-PEG750 and A24-PEG550 nanocarriers.
