The present invention relates to novel inhibitors of adipose triglyceride lipase (ATGL) having an improved inhibitory activity against human ATGL (hATGL) as well as pharmaceutical compositions comprising these inhibitors, and their therapeutic use, particularly in the treatment or prevention of a lipid metabolism disorder, including, e.g., obesity, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, type 2 diabetes, insulin resistance, glucose intolerance, hypertriglyceridemia, metabolic syndrome, cardiac and skeletal muscle steatosis, congenital generalized lipodystrophy, familial partial lipodystrophy, acquired lipodystrophy syndrome, atherosclerosis, or heart failure.

Mitochondria are pivotal energy production sources for cells to maintain necessary metabolism activities. Targeting dysfunctional mitochondrial features has been a hotspot for mitochondrial-related disease researches. Investigation with cancerous mitochondrial metabolism is a continuing concern within tumor therapy. Herein, we set out to assess the anti-cancer activities of a novel family of TPP-thiazole derivatives based on our earlier research on mitochondrial targeting agents. Specifically, we designed and synthesized a series of TPP-thiazole derivatives and revealed by the MTT assay that most synthesized compounds effectively inhibited three cancer cell lines (HeLa, PC3 and MCF-7). After structure modifications, we explored the SAR relationships and identified the most promising compound R13 (IC50 of 5.52 μM) for further investigation. In the meantime, we performed ATP production assay to assess the selected compounds inhibitory effect on HeLa cells energy production. The results displayed the test compounds significantly restrained ATP production of cancer cells. Overall, we have designed and synthesized a series of compounds which exhibited significant cytotoxicity against cancer cells and effectively inhibited mitochondrial energy production.

Seven novel 5-substituted phenylthiazole oxadiazolethiones: [Me-PTOT(H)], [MeO-PTOT(H)], [MeS-PTOT(H)], [F-PTOT(H)], [Cl-PTOT(H)], [Br-PTOT(H)], and [CF3-PTOT(H)], {where X-PTOT(H) = 5-[2-(4-X)thiazol-4-yl]-1,3,4-oxadiazole-2(3H)-thione, 4-X = C6H4}, were synthesised from their corresponding thioamides. From these seven heteroleptic thiolatobismuth complexes: BiPh(Me-PTOT)2 6, BiPh(MeO-PTOT)2 7, BiPh(MeS-PTOT)2 8, BiPh(F-PTOT)2 9, BiPh(Cl-PTOT)2 10, BiPh(Br-PTOT)2 11 and BiPh(CF3-PTOT)2 12 were synthesised and characterised. Complexes [10(DMSO)2] and [11(DMSO)2] were structurally characterised using X-ray diffraction. Evaluation of the antibacterial properties of the thiones and their BiIII complexes against Mycobacterium smegmatis, Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus), Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), Vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus (VRE), Enterococcus faecalis (E. faecalis) and Escherichia coli (E. coli) showed that all bismuth(III) complexes were highly effective against all the bacteria, as demonstrated by very low MIC values (1.1-2.1 μM). Complexes BiPh(Me-PTOT)2 6, BiPh(Cl-PTOT)2 10 and BiPh(Br-PTOT)2 11, showed best activity against the multi-drug resistant bacteria VRE and MRSA with an MIC value of 1.0 μM. All these complexes and their corresponding thiones failed to show any prominent activity against M. smegmatis and E. coli, even at high concentrations. These complexes showed little or no toxicity towards mammalian COS-7 cells at 20 μg/mL. Seven heteroleptic thiolatobismuth(III) complexes [BiPh(X-PTOT)2] derived from a series of 5-substituted phenylthiazole oxadiazolethiones [X-PTOT(H)] provide powerful antibacterial action against the multi-resistant bacteria MRSA and VRE.
