| Abstract : A series of quinazolin-4(3H)-one derivatives was designed through scaffold-hopping strategy and synthesized as novel multifunctional anti-AD agents demonstrating both cholinesterase inhibition and anti-inflammatory activities. Their inhibitory activities against acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) were evaluated, and the enzyme kinetics study as well as detailed binding mode via molecular docking were performed for selected compounds. MR2938 (B12) displayed promising AChE inhibitory activity with an IC(50) value of 5.04 microM and suppressed NO production obviously (IC(50) = 3.29 microM). Besides, it was able to decrease the mRNA levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-1beta, TNF-alpha, IL-6 and CCL2 at 1.25 microM. Further mechanism study suggested that MR2938 suppressed the neuroinflammation through blocking MAPK/JNK and NF-kappaB signaling pathways. All these results indicate that MR2938 is a good starting point to develop multifunctional anti-AD lead compounds. |
