AI Article Synopsis
- - The study involved a chemical reaction of 4-(1-adamantyl)-3-thiosemicarbazide with various substituted acetophenones and benzaldehydes, which led to the creation of thiosemicarbazones featuring adamantane structures.
- - The resulting compounds were tested for their effectiveness against certain bacteria and fungi, showing high antifungal activity and varying degrees of antibacterial effectiveness, with some compounds performing well against Gram-positive bacteria.
- - Notably, compounds with hydroxyl groups on the phenyl ring demonstrated strong potential as cancer-fighting agents, particularly against Hep3B, A549, and MCF-7 cancer cell lines, while others showed moderate inhibitory effects.
Article Abstract
Reaction of 4-(1-adamantyl)-3-thiosemicarbazide () with numerous substituted acetophenones and benzaldehydes yielded the corresponding thiosemicarbazones containing adamantane skeletons. The synthesized compounds were evaluated for their in vitro activities against some Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, and the fungus , and cytotoxicity against four cancer cell lines (Hep3B, HeLa, A549, and MCF-7). All of them showed good antifungal activity against . Compounds , , , and , , displayed significant inhibitory activity against . Compounds , , , and had moderate inhibitory potency against . Compounds , and found so good inhibitory effect on . Compounds and , which contain () hydroxyl groups on the phenyl ring, were shown to be good candidates as potential agents for killing the tested cancer cell lines, i.e., Hep3B, A549, and MCF-7. Compounds -, , , , , , and were moderate inhibitors against MCF-7.

The genome of the human intracellular pathogen encodes an unusually large number of epoxide hydrolases, which are thought to be involved in lipid metabolism and detoxification reactions needed to endure the hostile environment of host macrophages. These enzymes therefore represent suitable targets for compounds such as urea derivatives, which are known inhibitors of soluble epoxide hydrolases. In this work, we studied in vitro the effect of the thiourea drug isoxyl on six epoxide hydrolases of using a fatty acid substrate.

The role of aldose reductase (ALR2) in diabetes mellitus is well-established. Our interest in finding ALR2 inhibitors led us to explore the inhibitory potential of new thiosemicarbazones. In this study, we have synthesized adamantyl-thiosemicarbazones and screened them as aldehyde reductase (ALR1) and aldose reductase (ALR2) inhibitors.

To date, more than 100 congeners of the akuammiline alkaloid family have been isolated. Their signature structural element is a methanoquinolizidine moiety, a cage-like scaffold structurally related to adamantane. The structural variations of the family members originate from oxidative processes that mostly trigger rearrangements of the methanoquinolizidine motif.
