Acarbose, miglitol, and voglibose are the inhibitors of α-glucosidase enzyme and being clinically used for the management of type-II diabetes mellitus. However, many adverse effects are also associated with them. So, the development of new therapeutic agents is an utmost interest in medicinal chemistry research. Current study is based on the identification of new α-glucosidase inhibitors. For that purpose, hydrazinyl arylthiazole based pyridine derivatives 1–39 were synthesized via two step reaction and fully characterized by spectroscopic techniques EI-MS, HREI-MS, 1H-, and 13C NMR. However, stereochemistry of the iminic bond was confirmed by NOESY. All compounds were subjected to in vitro α-glucosidase inhibitory activity and found many folds active (IC50 = 1.40 ± 0.01–236.10 ± 2.20 μM) as compared to the standard acarbose having IC50 value of 856.45 ± 5.60 μM. A limited structure-activity relationship was carried out in order to make a presumption about the substituent's effect on inhibitory activity which predicted that substituents of more negative inductive effect played important role in the activity as compared to the substituents of less negative inductive effect. However, in order to have a good understanding of ligand enzyme interactions, molecular docking study was also conducted. In silico study was confirmed that substituents like halogens (Cl) and nitro (NO2) which have negative inductive effect were found to make important interactions with active site residues.

Acetylation, which targets a broad range of histone and non-histone proteins, is a reversible mechanism and plays a critical role in eukaryotic genes activation/deactivation. Acetyltransferases are very well conserved through evolution. This allows the use of a simple model organism, such as budding yeast, for the study of their related processes and to discover specific inhibitors. Following a simple yeast-based chemogenetic approach, we have identified a novel HAT (histone acetyltransferase) inhibitor active both in vitro and in vivo. This new synthetic compound, 1-(4-(4-chlorophenyl)thiazol-2- yl)-2-(propan-2-ylidene)hydrazine, named BF1, showed substrate selectivity for histone H3 acetylation and inhibitory activity in vitro on recombinant HAT Gcn5 and p300. Finally, we tested BF1 on human cells, HeLa as control and two aggressive cancer cell lines: a neuroblastoma from neuronal tissue and glioblastoma from brain tumour. Both global acetylation of histone H3 and specific acetylation at lysine 18 (H3AcK18) were lowered by BF1 treatment. Collectively, our results show the efficacy of this novel HAT inhibitor and propose the utilization of BF1 as a new, promising tool for future pharmacological studies.
