Abstract:Despite the undisputed development of medicine, antibiotics still serve as first-choice drugs for patients with infectious disorders. The widespread use of antibiotics results from a wide spectrum of their actions encompassing mechanisms responsible for: the inhibition of bacterial cell wall biosynthesis, the disruption of cell membrane integrity, the suppression of nucleic acids and/or proteins synthesis, as well as disturbances of metabolic processes. However, the widespread availability of antibiotics, acco… Show more
“…The chemical methodology for the synthesis of thiadiazine derivatives is illustrated in Figure 1. N-substituted thiosemicarbazides [1][2][3][4] were initially obtained by reacting hydrazine with isothiocyanates, and the spectroscopic data were identical to those reported in the literature [23][24][25][26]. Then, the final compounds were prepared in one step by reactions 1-4 with substituted phenylacetyl bromides in methanol or acetonitrile [27].…”

“…The introduction of the clinical use of antibiotics in the 20th century revolutionized modern medicine, reducing the morbidity and mortality of individuals with bacterial infections [1]. On the other hand, there is currently an increase in the number of bacterial species resistant to antibiotics, which is considered a global public health problem [2].…”
BackgroundThiadiazines are heterocyclic compounds that contain two nitrogen atoms and one sulfur atom in their structure. These synthetic molecules have several relevant pharmacological activities, such as antifungal, antibacterial, and antiparasitic.ObjectivesThe present study aimed to evaluate the possible in vitro and in silico interactions of compounds derived from thiadiazines.MethodsThe compounds were initially synthesized, purified, and confirmed through HPLC methodology. Multi‐drug resistant bacterial strains of Staphylococcus aureus 10 and Pseudomonas aeruginosa 24 were used to evaluate the direct and modifying antibiotic activity of thiadiazine derivatives. ADMET assays (absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion, and toxicity) were conducted, which evaluated the influence of the compounds against thousands of macromolecules considered as bioactive targets.ResultsThere were modifications in the chemical synthesis in carbon 4 or 3 in one of the aromatic rings of the structure where different ions were added, ensuring a variability of products. It was possible to observe results that indicate the possibility of these compounds acting through the cyclooxygenase 2 mechanism, which, in addition to being involved in inflammatory responses, also acts by helping sodium reabsorption. The amine group present in thiadiazine analogs confers hydrophilic characteristics to the substances, but this primary characteristic has been altered due to alterations and insertions of other ligands. The characteristics of the analogs generally allow easy intestinal absorption, reduce possible hepatic toxic effects, and enable possible neurological and anti‐inflammatory action. The antibacterial activity tests showed a slight direct action, mainly of the IJ23 analog. Some compounds were able to modify the action of the antibiotics gentamicin and norfloxacin against multi‐drug resistant strains, indicating a possible synergistic action.ConclusionsAmong all the results obtained in the study, the relevance of thiadiazine analogs as possible coadjuvant drugs in the antibacterial, anti‐inflammatory, and neurological action with low toxicity is clear. Need for further studies to verify these effects in living organisms is not ruled out.

“…7. The energy values for the HOMO (24) and LUMO (25) 1 and 2 clearly indicate p-p* transitions. The high energy difference in the HOMO-LUMO gap of TSCZ and the HOMO-LUMO gap of TCHZ suggests the higher kinetic energies and chemical reactivities of these molecules.…”

“…This in turn has recently become a global public health issue that affects patients and clinicians as bacteria can acquire resistance to specific antimicrobial agents through the transfer of genetic material that confers resistance in addition to intrinsic resistance. 25 The search for new drug candidates with specific chemical, microbiological and pharmacological characteristics has become increasingly urgent. There is a need for new antibacterial drugs which will increase the treatment success rate for both drug susceptible and drug resistant bacterial strains.…”
Machine learning applied in chemistry is a growing field of research. For assessing structure–property variations, this paper describes in silico studies of the hydrazide derivatives of thiosemicarbazide (TSCZ) and thiocarbohydrazide (TCHZ).
The highly contagious tuberculosis is a leading infectious killer, which urgently requires effective diagnosis and treatment methods. To address these issues, three lipophilic aggregation‐induced emission (AIE) photosensitizers (TTMN, TTTMN, and MeOTTMN) were selected to evaluate their labeling and antimicrobial properties in vitro and in vivo. These three lipophilic AIEgens preserve low cytotoxicity and achieve real‐time and non‐invasive visualization of the process of mycobacteria infection in vivo and in vitro. More importantly, these AIEgens can be triggered by white light to produce reactive oxygen species (ROS), which is a highly efficient antibacterial reagent. Among these AIEgens, TTMN photosensitizers have an outstanding antibacterial efficacy over the clinical first‐line drug rifampicin at the same therapeutic concentration. Interestingly, this study also finds that TTMN can increase the expression of pro‐inflammatory cytokines in the early stage of infection after light irradiation, indicating an additional pro‐inflammatory role of TTMN. This work provides some feasibility basis for developing AIEgens‐based agents for effectively destroying mycobacterium.This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved
