AI Article Synopsis

  • Recent research has focused on the development of thiadiazole-based drugs that could be effective against diabetes, urease-related issues, and drug-resistant infections.
  • The study reports the creation of new derivatives starting from 4-(trifluoromethyl)benzoic acid, which were then tested for their biological effects.
  • Certain compounds displayed strong inhibitory activities, attributed to the presence of specific chemical groups that enhance their effectiveness, suggesting potential for further drug optimization.

Article Abstract

Recently, thiadiazole-containing drugs have gained greater clinical relevance and are being explored for the development of new antidiabetic, antiurease and antimicrobial agents that target drug resistance. The authors disclose the synthesis of -(5-[4-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl)methanimine derivatives starting from 4-(trifluoromethyl)benzoic acid. All of the synthesized derivatives were evaluated for their biological potential in order to investigate the inhibitory activity against antidiabetic, antiurease and antibacterial profiles. Compounds , and showed excellent inhibitory activities due to the hydrogen bonding presence of -OH, -F and -CF substitutions attached with the phenyl ring. The present study provides potent antidiabetic, antiurease and antimicrobial agents that can be further optimized to discover novel antidiabetic, antiurease drugs.

Using HPLC-PDA and HRMS analysis, five compounds -coumaric acid, sinapic acid, quercetin, -ferulic and gallic acid were identified in seeds of Roxb. The GC-MS analysis identified 1-dodecanol, phenol, 3,5-bis(1,1-dimethylethyl), Oleic Acid and 1-Heptacosanol which possess anti-diabetic properpties. A bioassay-guided technique was used to determine the degree of inhibition that seeds crude methanol extract and its most active sub-fraction had against the α-glucosidase and urease enzymes.

Article Synopsis
  • A study investigated the anti-diabetic and anti-urease properties of ONL leaves, identifying six active compounds including quercetin-3-O-glucoside and myricetin.
  • The butanol sub-fraction BE2 showed strong inhibition of both α-glucosidase and Jack bean urease, outperforming the standard drugs acarbose and thiourea.
  • BE2 significantly increased glucose uptake in treated cells, suggesting its effectiveness at lower concentrations than the ethyl acetate sub-fraction EA5, with further research needed to explore its full potential.
