Abstract :
Garlic contains a wide range of organosulfur compounds, which exhibit a broad spectrum of biological activities. Amongst the sulfur-containing compounds in garlic, the thiosulfonates are considerably popular in various fields. In light of this, we decided to investigate the enzyme inhibition ability of thiosulfonates. In this paper, the synthesis and biological activity of a small library of unsymmetrical thiosulfonates as inhibitors of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) are described. The activity evaluation revealed nanomolar IC(50) and K(i) values against both enzymes tested. Furthermore, molecular docking studies allowed for the determination of possible binding interactions between the thiosulfonates and AChE. |
