RESUMEN
Sulphur fluoride exchange (SuFEx) is a category of click chemistry that enables covalent linking of modular units through sulphur connective hubs. Here, we reported an efficient synthesis and in situ screening method for building a library of sulphonamides on the picomolar scale by SuFEx reaction between a sulphonyl fluoride (RSO2F) core and primary or secondary amines. This biocompatible SuFEx reaction would allow us to rapidly synthesise sulphonamide molecules, and evaluate their ChE inhibitory activity. Compound T14-A24 was identified as a reversible, competitive, and selective AChE inhibitor (Ki = 22 nM). The drug-like evaluation showed that T14-A24 had benign BBB penetration, remarkable neuroprotective effect, and safe toxicological profile. In vivo behavioural study showed that T14-A24 treatment improved the Aß1 - 42-induced cognitive impairment, significantly prevented the effects of Aß1 - 42 toxicity. Therefore, this SuFEx click reaction can accelerate the discovery of lead compounds.

RESUMEN
ß-lactamases are enzymes that deactivate ß-lactam antibiotics through a hydrolysis mechanism. There are two known types of ß-lactamases: serine ß-lactamases (SBLs) and metallo ß-lactamases (MBLs). The two existing strategies to overcome ß-lactamase-mediated resistance are (a) to develop novel ß-lactam antibiotics that are not susceptible to hydrolysis by these enzymes; or (b) to develop ß-lactamase inhibitors that deactivate the enzyme and thereby restore the efficacy of the co-administered antibiotics. Many commercially available SBL inhibitors are used in combination therapy with antibiotics to treat antimicrobial resistant infections; however, there are only a handful of MBL inhibitors undergoing clinical trials. In this study, we present 11 novel potential MBL inhibitors (via multi-step chemical synthesis), that have shown to completely restore the efficacy of meropenem (≤2 mg L-1) against New Delhi metallo-ß-lactamase (NDM) producing Klebsiella pneumoniae in vitro. These compounds contain a cyclic amino acid zinc chelator conjugated to various commercially available ß-lactam antibiotic scaffolds with the aim to improve the overall drug transport, lipophilicity, and pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic properties as compared to the chelator alone. Biological evaluation of compounds 24b and 24c has further highlighted the downstream application of these MBLs, since they are non-toxic at the selected doses. Time-kill assays indicate that compounds 24b and 24c exhibit sterilizing activity towards NDM producing Klebsiella pneumoniae in vitro using minimal concentrations of meropenem. Furthermore, 24b and 24c proved to be promising inhibitors of VIM-2 (Ki = 0.85 and 1.87, respectively). This study has revealed a novel series of ß-lactam MBLIs that are potent, efficacious, and safe leads with the potential to develop into therapeutic MBLIs.
RESUMEN
A green and efficient method for the synthesis of ß-sulfonyl aliphatic sulfonyl fluorides was developed. This reaction works in aqueous media under mild and environmentally benign conditions without any ligand or additive. The efficiency of this method is demonstrated by isolating the desired products obtained through simple filtration.
RESUMEN
SuFEx click chemistry has been a method for the rapid synthesis of functional molecules with desirable properties. Here, we demonstrated a workflow that allows for in situ synthesis of sulfonamide inhibitors based on SuFEx reaction for high-throughput testing of their cholinesterase activity. According to fragment-based drug discovery (FBDD), sulfonyl fluorides [R-SO2F] with moderate activity were identified as fragment hits, rapidly diversified into 102 analogs in SuFEx reactions, and the sulfonamides were directly screened to yield drug-like inhibitors with 70-fold higher potency (IC50 = 94 nM). Moreover, the improved molecule J8-A34 can ameliorate cognitive function in Aß1-42-induced mouse model. Since this SuFEx linkage reaction succeeds on picomole scale for direct screening, this methodology can accelerate the development of robust biological probes and drug candidates.

RESUMEN
Compounds containing an SF bond have garnered intense interest in the chemical and biological literature. In particular, sulfonyl fluorides (RSO2F) are commonly used as covalent protein inhibitors and biological probes. The introduction of the fluorine atom into drugs often leads to significantly promoted medicinal properties, which revolutionized the development of pharmaceuticals and gained attention because of the beneficial properties of these small and highly electro-negative halogens. The sulfonyl fluoride functional group has also been widely adopted throughout the field of chemical biology due to its unique balance between reactivity and stability under physiological conditions. This comprehensive review highlights the recent developments of sulfonyl fluorides based compounds in a massive range of therapeutic applications. We believe this review article will be helpful to inspire new ideas for structural design and developments of less toxic and potent Sulfur based drugs against the numerous death-causing diseases.

Arterial remodeling is a common pathological basis of cardiovascular diseases such as atherosclerosis, vascular restenosis, hypertension, pulmonary hypertension, aortic dissection, and aneurysm. Vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) are not only the main cellular components in the middle layer of the arterial wall but also the main cells involved in arterial remodeling. Dedifferentiated VSMCs lose their contractile properties and are converted to a synthetic, secretory, proliferative, and migratory phenotype, playing key roles in the pathogenesis of arterial remodeling. As mitochondria are the main site of biological oxidation and energy transformation in eukaryotic cells, mitochondrial numbers and function are very important in maintaining the metabolic processes in VSMCs. Mitochondrial dysfunction and oxidative stress are novel triggers of the phenotypic transformation of VSMCs, leading to the onset and development of arterial remodeling. Therefore, pharmacological measures that alleviate mitochondrial dysfunction reverse arterial remodeling by ameliorating VSMCs metabolic dysfunction and phenotypic transformation, providing new options for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases related to arterial remodeling. This review summarizes the relationship between mitochondrial dysfunction and cardiovascular diseases associated with arterial remodeling and then discusses the potential mechanism by which mitochondrial dysfunction participates in pathological arterial remodeling. Furthermore, maintaining or improving mitochondrial function may be a new intervention strategy to prevent the progression of arterial remodeling.

RESUMEN
Novel scaffolds are expected to treat Alzheimer's disease, pyrazole-5-fluorosulfates were found as selective BuChE inhibitors. Compounds K1-K26 were assayed for ChE inhibitory activity, amongst them, compound K3 showed potent BuChE and hBuChE inhibition (IC50 = 0.79 µM and 6.59 µM). SAR analysis showed that 1-, 3-, 4-subtituent and 5-fluorosulfate of pyrazole ring affected BuChE inhibitory activity. Molecular docking showed that the fluorosulfate increased the binding affinity of hBuChE through π-sulphur interaction. Compound K3 was a reversible, mixed and non-competitive BuChE inhibitor (Ki = 0.77 µM) and showed remarkable neuroprotection, safe toxicological profile and BBB penetration. In vivo behavioural study showed that K3 treatment improved the Aß1 - 42-induced cognitive impairment, and significantly prevented the effects of Aß1 - 42 toxicity. Therefore, selective BuChE inhibitor K3 has potential to be further developed as AD therapeutics.
