A new series of-fluoro chalcones-substituted amino-alkyl derivatives (3a3l) were designed, synthesized, characterized and evaluated for the inhibitory activity against acetylcholinesterase and butyrylcholinesterase. The results showed that the alteration of fluorine atom position and amino-alkyl groups markedly influenced the activity and the selectivity of chalcone derivates in inhibiting acetylcholinesterase and butyrylcholinesterase. Among them, compound 3l possesses the most potent inhibitory against acetylcholinesterase (IC50=0.21 +/- 0.03mol/L), and the highest selectivity for acetylcholinesterase over butyrylcholinesterase (IC50 (BuChE)/IC50 (AChE)=65.0). Molecular modeling and enzyme kinetic study on compound 3l supported its dual acetylcholinesterase inhibitory profile, simultaneously binding at the catalytic active and peripheral anionic site of the enzyme.

Dihydropyrimidine derivatives as MDM2 inhibitors

Ali Mehri, Karim Mahnam, Hajar Sirous, Mahmoud Aghaei, Leila Rafiei, Mahboubeh Rostami

Summary: One potential approach for tumor therapy is inhibiting the binding between MDM2 and p53 to reactivate p53 in tumor cells. In this study, Monastrol derivatives were designed as MDM2 inhibitors and evaluated for their cytotoxicity on cancer cells. Compound 5d showed the best inhibitory results in silico and in vitro experiments. These findings suggest that Monastrol derivatives have the potential to be candidates for MDM2 inhibition.
