Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are the competitive inhibitors of cyclooxygenase (COX), the enzyme which mediates the bioconversion of arachidonic acid to inflammatory prostaglandins (PGs). Their use is associated with the side effects such as gastrointestinal and renal toxicity. The therapeutic anti-inflammatory action of NSAIDs is produced by the inhibition of COX-2, while the undesired side effects arise from inhibition of COX-1 activity. Thus, it was though that more selective COX-2 inhibitors would have reduced side effects. Based upon a number of selective COX-2 inhibitors (rofecoxib, celecoxib, valdecoxib etc.) were developed as safer NSAIDs with improved gastric safety profile. However, the recent market removal of some COXIBs such as rofecoxib due to its adverse cardiovascular side effects clearly encourages the researchers to explore and evaluate alternative templates with COX-2 inhibitory activity. Recognition of new avenues for selective COX-2 inhibitors in cancer chemotherapy and neurological diseases such as Parkinson and Alzheimer’s diseases still continues to attract investigations on the development of COX-2 inhibitors. This review highlights the various structural classes of selective COX-2 inhibitors with special emphasis on their structure-activity relationships.

Selective COX-2 Inhibitors: A Review of Their Structure-Activity Relationships

Recently, deep generative models have revealed itself as a promising way of performing de novo molecule design. However, previous research has focused mainly on generating SMILES strings instead of molecular graphs. Although available, current graph generative models are are often too general and computationally expensive. In this work, a new de novo molecular design framework is proposed based on a type of sequential graph generators that do not use atom level recurrent units. Compared with previous graph generative models, the proposed method is much more tuned for molecule generation and has been scaled up to cover significantly larger molecules in the ChEMBL database. It is shown that the graph-based model outperforms SMILES based models in a variety of metrics, especially in the rate of valid outputs. For the application of drug design tasks, conditional graph generative model is employed. This method offers highe flexibility and is suitable for generation based on multiple objectives. The results have demonstrated that this approach can be effectively applied to solve several drug design problems, including the generation of compounds containing a given scaffold, compounds with specific drug-likeness and synthetic accessibility requirements, as well as dual inhibitors against JNK3 and GSK-3β.

Target flexibility: an emerging consideration in drug discovery and design.

The synthesis and pharmacological activity of a series of bicyclic pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines as potent and selective cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) inhibitors are described. The new compounds were evaluated both in vitro (COX-1 and COX-2 inhibition in human whole blood) and in vivo (carrageenan-induced paw edema and air-pouch model). Modification of the pyrimidine substituents showed that 6,7-disubstitution provided the best activity and led to the identification of 3-(4-fluorophenyl)-6,7-dimethyl-2-(4-methylsulfonylphenyl)pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine (10f) as one of the most potent and selective COX-2 inhibitor in this series.

The synthesis and pharmacological activity of a new series of 5-(biphenyl-4-ylmethyl)pyrazoles as potent angiotensin II antagonists both in vitro (binding of [3H]AII) and in vivo (iv, inhibition of AII-induced increase in blood pressure, pithed rats; po, furosemide-treated sodium-depleted rats) are reported. The various substituents of the pyrazole ring have been modified taking into account the receptor's requirements derived from related structure−activity relationship studies. A propyl or butyl group at position 1 as well as a carboxylic acid group at position 4 were shown to be essential for high affinity. Different groups at position 3 (H, small alkyl, phenyl, benzyl) provided good binding affinity, but oral activity was highly discriminating:  bulky alkyl groups provided the highest potencies. Among the acidic isosteres tested in the biphenyl moiety, the tetrazole group proved to be the best. Compound 14n (3-tert-butyl-1-propyl-5-[[2‘-(1H-tetrazol-5-yl)-1,1‘-biphenyl-4-yl]methyl]-1H-pyrazole-4-carbo...

Synthesis and Structure−Activity Relationship of a New Series of Potent AT1 Selective Angiotensin II Receptor Antagonists: 5-(Biphenyl-4-ylmethyl)pyrazoles

The main recognition characteristics of the ATP binding site of p38 mitogen activated protein kinase alpha (p38α MAPK) have been explored by a combination of modeling and bioinformatics techniques, making special emphasis in the characteristics of the site that justifies binding specificity with respect to other MAP kinases. Particularly, we have analyzed the binding mode of a new family of p38 MAPK inhibitors based on the pyridinyl−heterocycle core. This family of compounds has a marked pseudosymmetry and can exist in different tautomeric forms, which makes the determination of the binding mode especially challenging. A combination of homology modeling, quantum mechanics, classical docking, and molecular dynamics calculations allowed us to determine the main characteristics defining the binding mode of this new scaffold in the ATP binding site of p38α. A set of free energy calculations allowed us to verify the binding mode proposed, giving an overall excellent agreement with the experimental values. Fina...
