The synthesis of 5-[hydroxy-2-[(1-methyl-3-phenylpropyl)amino]ethyl]-1H-indole-7- carboxamide, 5, a pyrrolo analogue of labetalol, is described. Compound 5 was found to reduce blood pressure in spontaneously hypertensive rats with an ED50 of 5 mg/kg po, without causing any decrease in heart rate. Isolated tissue studies with 5 shows that it is a nonselective beta-adrenoceptor antagonist and that it is a weaker alpha-adrenoceptor antagonist with a relative selectivity for alpha 1-receptors. Additionally, the compound displayed significant beta-adrenoceptor intrinsic sympathomimetic activity. Evidence is presented that the beta-adrenoceptor antagonist and agonist properties of 5 are mediated via hydrogen-bond formation with the receptor.

Janus kinase type 3 (JAK3), an emerging target for treating autoimmune diseases, possesses a front pocket cysteine that is targeted by covalent modifiers, best represented by the marketed drug ritlecitinib (). Recently, 2,3-dihydro-1-inden-1-ylcyanamides have been developed as novel JAK3 inhibitors. Among them, the -(6-(7-pyrrolo[2,3-]pyrimidin-4-yl)-2,3-dihydro-1-inden-1-yl)cyanamide inhibitor () and its methylated analogue (), while being potent inhibitors, displayed different mechanisms of action (covalent vs noncovalent) and binding modes (Casimiro-Garcia et al.

There is no cure for Marinesco-Sjögren syndrome (MSS), a genetic multisystem disease linked to loss-of-function mutations in the SIL1 gene, encoding a BiP co-chaperone. Previously, we showed that the PERK kinase inhibitor GSK2606414 delays cerebellar Purkinje cell (PC) degeneration and the onset of ataxia in the woozy mouse model of MSS. However, GSK2606414 is toxic to the pancreas and does not completely rescue the woozy phenotype.

The synthetic approach based on a sequence of Buchwald-Hartwig cross-coupling and annulation through intramolecular oxidative cyclodehydrogenation has been used for the construction of novel 4-alkyl-4-thieno[2',3':4,5]pyrrolo[2,3-]quinoxaline derivatives. For the first time, these polycyclic compounds were evaluated for antimycobacterial activity, including extensively drug-resistant strains. A reasonable bacteriostatic effect against HRv was demonstrated.

Indolo[2,3-]pyrrolo[3,4-]carbazole scaffold is successfully used as an efficient structural motif for the design and development of different antitumor agents. In this study, we investigated the anti-glioblastoma therapeutic potential of glycosylated indolocarbazole analog LCS1269 utilizing in vitro, in vivo, and in silico approaches. Cell viability was estimated by an MTT assay.

Article Synopsis
  • * Researchers designed new drug candidates by hybridizing two pharmacophoric systems, leading to the creation of novel molecules (1K1-1K5) using a multi-step synthesis method.
  • * The new compounds showed promising effectiveness in inhibiting MERTK, particularly IK5, which had low IC values against various cancer cell lines, and demonstrated good stability and clearance profiles for further testing.
