    Abstract Purpose: Cancer is a significant public health problem and ranks as a leading cause of death globally. Multidrug resistance (MDR) affects the therapeutic potential of conventional chemotherapeutic agents in cancer chemotherapy. Receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) are enzymes whose aberrant activation contributes to the tumorigenesis of various types of cancers. The ability of several RTKs, such as c-Met, to reverse ABC transporters mediated MDR was shown before. We aimed to explore the ability of c-Met inhibitors to circumvent MDR in cancer by inhibiting the ABCB1 transporter using
    Methods: Docking virtual screening of several potent and structurally diverse c-Met inhibitors were applied to find repurposed candidates to target the ATP binding sites and drug-substrate binding pockets of the ABCB1 transporter. The selected candidate was subjected to molecular dynamics simulations.
    Results: Based on docking findings, among 19 clinical c-Met inhibitors, several drugs, particularly golvatinib, exerted the affinity to both ATP binding sites in the nucleotide-binding domains (NBDs) as well as the drug-substrate binding site in the transmembrane domains (TMDs). Moreover, several non-clinical c-Met inhibitors obtained from the ChEMBL database had strong interactions with TMDs and NBDs, among which CHEMBL1950194 and CHEMBL2385194 compounds showed the highest binding affinity, respectively. Additionally, as a potential repositioning drug, MD simulation studies of golvatinib, corroborated the docking results.
    Conclusion: We applied docking and molecular dynamics simulations to screen the potential c-Met inhibitors as the MDR reversing agents targeting ATP and drug-substrate binding sites, and the results suggested several repurposed candidate drugs.

    Abstract The c-Met tyrosine kinase plays an important role in human cancers. Preclinical studies demonstrated that c-Met is over-expressed, mutated and amplified in a variety of human tumor types and design of more potent c-Met inhibitors is a priority. In this study, 14 molecular dynamics simulations of potent type II c-Met inhibitors were run to resolve the critical interactions responsible for high affinity of ligands towards c-Met considering the essential flexibility of protein-ligand interactions. Residues Phe1223 and Tyr1159, involved in pi-pi interactions were recognized as the most effective residues in the ligand binding in terms of binding free energies. Hydrogen bond interaction with Met1160 was also found necessary for effective type II ligand binding to c-Met.

    Abstract We report the synthesis, biological evaluation, and X-ray structural studies of a series of SARS-CoV-2 Mpro inhibitors based upon the X-ray crystal structure of nirmatrelvir, an FDA approved drug that targets the main protease of SARS-CoV-2. The studies involved examination of various P4 moieties, P1 five- and six-membered lactam rings to improve potency. In particular, the six-membered P1 lactam ring analogs exhibited high SARS-CoV-2 Mpro inhibitory activity. Several compounds effectively blocked SARS-CoV-2 replication in VeroE6 cells. One of these compounds maintained good antiviral activity against variants of concern including Delta and Omicron variants. A high-resolution X-ray crystal structure of an inhibitor bound to SARS-CoV-2 Mpro was determined to gain insight into the ligand-binding properties in the Mpro active site.

    Abstract Bacterial resistance is undoubtedly one of the main public health concerns especially with the emergence of metallo-β-lactamases (MBLs) able to hydrolytically inactivate β-lactam antibiotics. Currently, there are no inhibitors of MBLs in clinical use to rescue antibiotic action and the New Delhi metallo-β-lactamase-1 (NDM-1) is still considered as one of the most relevant targets for inhibitor development. Following a fragment-based strategy to find new NDM-1 inhibitors, we identified aurone as a promising scaffold. A series of 60 derivatives were then evaluated and two of them were identified as promising inhibitors with K
