RESUMO
Through modification of the skeleton of Sitagliptin and Vildagliptin, we successfully synthesized and built-up four series of 1,2,4-triazole derivatives, containing N,O-disubstituted glycolamide, N,N'-disubstituted glycinamide, ß-amino ester, and ß-amino amide as linkers, for the development of new dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP-4) inhibitors. The synthetic strategy for glycolamides or glycinamides involved convenient two-steps reaction: functionalized transformation of 2-chloro-N-(2,4,5-triflurophenyl)acetamide 9 (hydroxylation or amination) and esterification or amidation of 1,2,4-triazole-3-carboxylic acid. On the other hand, the one-pot synthesis procedure, including substitution and deprotection, was developed for the preparation of ß-amino carbonyl 1,2,4-triazoles from (1H-1,2,4-triazol-3-yl)methanol 12 or (1H-1,2,4-triazol-3-yl)methanamine 13 and Boc-(R)-3-amino-4-(2,4,5-trifluoro-phenyl)-butyric acid 14. All of glycolamides, glycinamides, and ß-amino carbonyl 1,2,4-triazoles were also evaluated against DPP-4 inhibitory activity. Based on the SAR study of DPP-4 inhibitory capacity, ß-amino ester 5n and ß-amino amide 1,2,4-triazoles 6d and 6p possessed the significant inhibition of DPP-4 (IC50 < 51.0 nM), particularly for compound 6d (IC50 = 34.4 nM). The selectivity evaluation indicated compound 5n and 6p had excellent selectivity over QPP, DPP-8, and DPP-9. In addition, the docking results revealed compounds 5n and 6p provided stronger π-π stacking interaction with residue Phe357 than 1,5-disubstituted 1,2,4-triazole 6d and Sitagliptin 1. In summary, compounds 5n and 6p could be promising lead compounds for further development of DPP-4 inhibitor.

A new method was developed for synthesis of 1,2,4-triazole-3-carboxylates 5a-p and 6 from nitrilimines 3a-p through amination and heterocyclization two-steps reactions. All of 1,2,4-triazole-3-carboxylates 5 and 6 were characterized by spectroscopy technique. Based on the SAR study of anti-inflammation activity, most of these compounds showed potential anti-inflammatory activity on NO inhibition in LPS-induced RAW 264.7 cells (IC50 < 7.0 µM) compared with Celecoxib and Indomethacin. Several potential compounds 5b-h, 5j, 5l, 5n, and 5o were subjected to in vitro cyclooxygenase COX-1/COX-2 inhibition assays. Compound 5d showed extraordinary COX-2 inhibition (IC50 = 17.9 nM) and the best selectivity (COX-1/COX-2 = 1080). Furthermore, 5 mg/kg compound 5d exhibited better in vivo anti-inflammation and gastric protection results compared to 10 mg/kg Indomethacin. Docking experiments of 5d into COX-2 binding pocket have been evaluated. Following the bioactivities experimental data, the potential drug candidate 5d, significantly exhibited better anti-inflammatory effect than Indomethacin.

An efficient one-flask cascade method for synthesis of the multi-substituted 1,2,4-triazoles via chlorotrimethylsilane as a promoter was developed. Firstly, nitrilimines were transformed to hydrazonamides as intermediate in high yield by treatment with commercially available hexamethyldisilazane. Subsequently, the mixture was added with corresponding acyl chloride and heated in the presence of pyridine to give the corresponding multi-substituted 1,2,4-triazoles via chlorotrimethylsilane promoted heterocyclization reaction. The utility of method was demonstrated to synthesize CB1 ligands including Rimonabant analogue 4c and LH-21 3 for modeling study. All synthesized compounds were subjected to the cAMP functional assay of CB1/CB2 receptor. Especially, compound 4g enhanced the reversal of cAMP reduction by CP59440 than LH-21 and Rimonabant analogue in CHO-hCB1 cells. In addition, the docking results showed compound 4g fits the best position with CB1 receptor. However, the ability to penetrate brain-blood barrier of compound 4g is similar with Rimonabant in MDCK-mdr1 permeability assay, which might cause CNS side effect. This study still provides the basis for further development of a potent and specific CB1 antagonist.

BACKGROUND AND AIM: Glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) assessment is basic to diabetes management. Little is done to describe the whole spectrum of the trajectory, its related temporal patterns of metabolic indices, and comorbidities. METHODS AND RESULTS: This was a longitudinal study. In the Diabetes Management through Integrated Delivery System project in Taiwan, enrollees had diabetes, but no major comorbidities. They were randomized into intensive or conventional education (health, diet and exercise) groups. HbA1c was classified by a groupbased trajectory model on the basis of repeated six-monthly measurements. We analyzed data from 1091 subjects who had at least two measurements on HbA1c. HbA1c exhibited three distinct ranges of low (42-53 mmol/mol), intermediate (64-75 mmol/mol) and high (97 mmol/mol), all of which persisted for 4.5 years regardless of receiving intensive education or not. Temporal changes and a time-group interaction were found for triglycerides, total cholesterol, HDL-C and LDL-C. The high trajectory was associated with the major co-morbidities of retinopathy, nephropathy, neuropathy, stroke, hypoglycemia, and ketoacidosis. Patients in the intensive education group (62.4%), which were equally distributed in the three trajectories, had significantly lower HbA1cs (-0.14%= -1.5 mmol/mol, p=0.026). The intermediate trajectory patients with intensive education had HbA1cs higher than the low trajectory patients with conventional education (ß=0.189, p=0.033). Though not significant, a similar pattern was found for DM education in the high group (ß=0.223, p=0.154). CONCLUSIONS: Novel strategies beyond current education and pharmacotherapeutic regimens are needed to lower HbA1c at least 11 mmol/mol for the high HbA1c group to minimize comorbidities.
