We developed three-dimensional quantitative structure activity relationship (3D-QASR) models for 17 adamantyl derivatives as P-glycoprotein (P-gp) inhibitors. Eighteen different partial charge calculation methods were tested to check the feasibility of the 3D-QSAR models. Best predictive comparative molecular field analysis (CoMFA) model was obtained with the Austin Model 1-Bond Charge Correction (AM1-BCC) atomic charge. The 3D-QSAR models were derived with CoMFA and comparative molecular similarity indices analysis (CoMSIA). The final CoMFA model ($q^2$ = 0.764, $r^2$ = 0.988) was calculated with an AM1-BCC charge and electrostatic parameter, whereas the CoMSIA model ($q^2$ = 0.655, $r^2$ = 0.964) was derived with an AM1-BCC charge and combined steric, electrostatic, hydrophobic and HB-acceptor parameters. Leave-five-out (LFO) cross-validation was also performed, which yielded good correlation coefficient for both CoMFA (0.801) and CoMSIA (0.656) models. Robustness of the developed models was checked further with 1000 run bootstrapping analyses, which gave an acceptable correlation coefficient for CoMFA (BS-$r^2$ = 0.997, BS-SD = 0.003) and CoMSIA (BS-$r^2$ = 0.996, BS-SD = 0.018).

c-Jun N-terminal kinase-3 (JNK-3) has been identified as a promising target for neuronal apoptosis and has the effective therapeutic for neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease, and other CNS disorders. Herein, we report the essential structural and chemical parameters for JNK-3 inhibitors utilizing comparative molecular field similarity indices analysis (CoMSIA) using the derivatives of 3,5-disubstituted quinolines. The best predictions were obtained CoMSIA model (q2=0.834, r2=0.987) and the statistical parameters from the generated 3D-QSAR models were indicated that the data are well fitted and have high predictive ability. The resulting contour map from 3D-QSAR models might be helpful to design novel and more potent JNK3 derivatives.

기질분자로서 polyhydroxy 치환된 2-phenyl-l,4-benzopyrone 유도체(Flavones)(1-25)들의 hydroxyl 치환기($R_1-R_9$)가 변화함에 따른 Tyrosinase(PDB ID: oxy-form; 1WX2)에 대한 저해활성을 이해하기 위하여 분자도킹과 3차원적인 정량적 구조활성관계 (3D-QSARs: CoMFA 및 CoMSIA)가 연구되었다. 그 결과, 통계적으로 CoMFA 1 및 CoMSIA 1 모델이 가장 양호한 3D-QSARs 모델이었다. 또한, 순차 혼합화 분석결과로부터 CoMSIA 1 모델($dq^2'/dr_{yy'}^2$=1.009 및 $q^2$=0.511)이 우연상관성에 저촉되지 않는 최적화 모텔이었으며 최적화된 CoMSIA 1 모델의 tyrosinase에 대한 저해활성은 기질분자의 정전기장(51.4%)에 의존적이었다. Tyrosinase의 반응점에 대한 3D-QSAR 모델의 등고도는 수용체로서 tyrosinase과 저해제로서 2-phenyl-l,4-benzopyrone 기질분자 사이의 새로운 상호작용 관계를 이해하는 계기가 되었다. 그러므로 이 결과들은 새로운 잠재적인 tyrosinase 저해제의 최적화에 적용될 수 있을 것이다.

Microsomal prostaglandin E2 synthase (mPGES-1) is a potent target for pain and inflammation. Various QSAR (quantitative structure activity relationship) analyses used to understand the factors affecting inhibitory potency for a series of MK886 analogues. We derived four QSAR models utilizing various quantum mechanical (QM) descriptors. These QM models indicate that steric, electrostatic and hydrophobic interaction can be important factors. Common pharmacophore hypotheses (CPHs) also have studied. The QSAR model derived by best-fitted CPHs considering hydrophobic, negative group and ring effect gave a reasonable result (q2 = 0.77, r2 = 0.97 and Rtestset = 0.90). The pharmacophore-derived molecular alignment subsequently used for 3D-QSAR. The CoMFA (Comparative Molecular Field Analysis) and CoMSIA (Comparative Molecular Similarity Indices Analysis) techniques employed on same series of mPGES-1 inhibitors which gives a statistically reasonable result (CoMFA; q2 = 0.90, r2 = 0.99. CoMSIA; q2 = 0.93, r2 = 1.00). All modeling results (QM-based QSAR, pharmacophore modeling and 3D-QSAR) imply steric, electrostatic and hydrophobic contribution to the inhibitory activity. CoMFA and CoMSIA models suggest the introduction of bulky group around ring B may enhance the inhibitory activity.

B13 analogues are being considered as therapeutic agents for cancer cells, since B13 is a ceramide analogue and inhibits ceramidase to promote apoptosis in cancer cells. B13 sulfonamides are assumed to have biological activity similar to B13, since they are made by bioisosterically substituting the carboxyl moiety of B13 with sulfone group. Twenty B13 sulfonamides were evaluated for their in vitro cytotoxicities against human colon cancer HT-29 and lung cancer A549 cell lines using MTT assays. Replacement of the amide group with a sulfonamide group increased cytotoxicity in both cancer cell lines. The sulfonamides with long alkyl chains exhibited activities two to three times more potent than that of B13 and compound (15) had the most potent activity with $IC_{50}$ values of 27 and $28.7{\mu}M$ for HT-29 and A549, respectively. The comparative molecular field analysis (CoMFA) and comparative molecular similarity indices analysis (CoMSIA) were used to carry out QSAR molecular modeling of these compounds. The predictive CoMSIA models for HT-29 and A549 gave cross-validated q2 values of 0.703 and 0.830, respectively. From graphical analysis of these models, we suppose that the stereochemistry of 1,3-propandiol is not important for activity and that introduction of a sulfonamide group and long alkyl chains into B13 can increase cytotoxicity.

새로운 5-benzofuryl-2-[1-(alkoxyimino)alkyl]-3-hydroxycyclohex-2-en-1-one 유도체들의 3차원적인 정량적 구조와 발아 전, 벼(Oryza sativa L.)와 논피(Echinochloa crus-galli)에 대한 제초활성과의 관계를 비교분자 유사성 지수분석(CoMSIA) 방법으로 연구하였다. 가장 양호한 CoMSIA 모델로서 벼에 대한 A5 모델($r^2_{cv.}=0.569$ 및 $r^2_{ncv.}=0.941$)은 주로 소수성장(39.7%)과 입체장(31.6%) 그리고 논피에 대한 B4 모델($r^2_{cv.}=0.595$ 및 $r^2_{ncv.}=0.933$)은 정전기장(46.7%)과 수소결합 받게장(30.8%)에 각각 의존적이었다. B4 모델에 의하여 예측된 $R_1=SF_5,\;R_2=R_3=R_4=H(P1)$ 치환체(벼: $pI_{50}=4.84$ 및 논피: $pI_{50}=7.21$, ${\Delta}pI_{50}=2.37$)는 논피에 대하여 가장 높은 제초활성을 나타내었으며 두 초종 간 선택성이 가장 큰 치환체이었다.

A series of 3,4-dihydroquinazoline derivatives with anti-cancer activities against human colon cancer HT-29 cell were subjected to three-dimensional quantitative structure-activity relationship (3D-QSAR) studies using the comparative molecular similarity indices analysis (CoMSIA) approaches. The most potent compound, BK10001 was used to align the molecules. As a result, the best prediction was obtained with CoMSIA combined electrostatic, hydrophobic, and hydrogen-bond acceptor fields ($q^2=0.648$, $r^2=0.882$). This model was validated by an external test set of six compounds giving satisfactory predictive $r^2$ values of 0.879. This model would guide the design of potent 3,4-dihydroquinazoline derivatives as anti-cancer agent for the treatment of human colon cancer.

Benzotriazole is an important synthetic auxiliary for potential clinical applications. A series of benzotriazoles as potential antiproliferative agents by inhibiting histone deacetylase (HDAC) were recently reported. Three-dimensional quantitative structure-activity relationship (3D-QSAR), including comparative molecular field analysis (CoMFA) and comparative molecular similarity indices analysis (CoMSIA), were performed to elucidate the 3D structural features required for the antiproliferative activity. The results of both ligand-based CoMFA model ($q^2=0.647$, $r^2=0.968$, ${r^2}_{pred}=0.687$) and CoMSIA model ($q^2=0.685$, $r^2=0.928$, ${r^2}_{pred}=0.555$) demonstrated the highly statistical significance and good predictive ability. The results generated from CoMFA and CoMSIA provided important information about the structural characteristics influence inhibitory potency. In addition, docking analysis was applied to clarify the binding modes between the ligands and the receptor HDAC. The information obtained from this study could provide some instructions for the further development of potent antiproliferative agents and HDAC inhibitors.

In order to explore structural features of minoxidil analogs with a view of enhancing lysyl hydroxylase (LH) inhibitory activity, molecular holographic QSAR (HQSAR) and CoMSIA (comparative molecular similarity indices analysis) were performed. The results from the atomic contributions with optimized the HQSAR 6-2 model indicated that, in case of pyrimidine-1-N-oxide substituent, C2 atom of pyrimidine ring and C'3-C'4 bond of 4-piperidinol group showed the highest impact on the inhibitory activity towards LH enzyme. It was also evident from the information of the optimized CoMSIA F5 model that the inhibitory activity mainly depended on the hydrophobic field contribution (36%) and the hydrogen bond (H-bond) field contribution (49.2%) of substrate molecule. Particularly, it is predicted that the functional groups which disfavor H-bond acceptors in large space around the piperidinol group and also the functional groups which favor the H-bond acceptors at C'4 (& C'5) atom in $R_5$ group play a role for increased inhibitory activity. With this in mind, it is likely that a novel candidate having more improved inhibitory activity on hair growth could be designed in the future.
