Structure-activity relationships amongst 4-position quinoline methanol antimalarials that inhibit the growth of drug sensitive and resistant strains of Plasmodium falciparum.

Bioorg Med Chem Lett 20(4):1347-51 (2010) PMID 20097070

Utilizing mefloquine as a scaffold, a next generation quinoline methanol (NGQM) library was constructed to identify early lead compounds that possess biological properties consistent with the target product profile for malaria chemoprophylaxis while reducing permeability across the blood-brain barrier. The library of 200 analogs resulted in compounds that inhibit the growth of drug sensitive and resistant strains of Plasmodium falciparum. Herein we report selected chemotypes and the emerging structure-activity relationship for this library of quinoline methanols.

    We report on the cloning of thiolase II from sunflower cotyledons. The known DNA sequence of Cucumis sativus 3-oxoacyl-CoA thiolase was used to generate primers for cloning the corresponding thiolase from sunflower cotyledons. RT-PCR was then used to generate an internal fragment of the sunflower th...

    A new series of 1-alkyl-8-(piperazine-1-sulfonyl)phenylxanthines was designed, synthesized, and characterized in radioligand binding and functional assays at A(2B) adenosine receptors. A(2B) antagonists with subnanomolar affinity and high selectivity were discovered. The most potent compounds were 1...
