Publication Metadata only Synthesis, antiviral and anticancer activity of some novel thioureas derived from N-(4-nitro-2-phenoxyphenyl)-methanesulfonamide(ELSEVIER FRANCE-EDITIONS SCIENTIFIQUES MEDICALES ELSEVIER, 2009) KÜÇÜKGÜZEL, İLKAY; Karakus, Sevgi; Kucukguzel, S. Guniz; Kucukguzel, Ilkay; De Clercq, Erik; Pannecouque, Christophe; Andrei, Graciela; Snoeck, Robert; Sahin, Fikrettin; Bayrak, Oemer FarukDue to a continuing effort to develop new antiviral agents, a series of 1-[4-(methanesulfonamido)-3-phenoxyphenyl]-3-alkyl/aryl thioureas 3a-i have been synthesized by the reaction of alkyl/aryl isothiocyanates with 4-amino-2-phenoxymethanesulfonanilide. These derivatives were structurally characterized by the use of spectral techniques and evaluated for their anticancer and antiviral activities. None of the tested compounds showed significant anticancer properties on A549 and L929 cell lines. All synthesized compounds 3a-i were evaluated in vitro against HIV-1 (IIIB) and HIV-2 (ROD) strains in MT-4 cells, as well as other selected viruses such as HSV-1, HSV-2, Coxsackie virus B4, Sindbis virus and varicella-zoster virus using HEL, HeLa and Vero cell cultures. Compound 3b was able to block HIV replication with almost 100% maximum protection at 125 mu g/ml, and IC50 values of 54.9 mu g/ml and 65.9 mu g/ml against HIV-1 and HIV-2, respectively.

Antitubercular activity of the synthesized compounds was determined in vitro using the BACTEC 460 Radiometric System against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv at 6.25 mu g/mL. The antimycobacterial data of screened compounds indicated that 2-(4-aminophenyl)-5-(4-chlorophenyl)amino-1,3,4-thiadiazole 2f demonstrated the highest inhibition.Publication Open Access The synthesis and biological activities of 3-acyl- 2,3-dihydro-1,3,4-oxadiazole / 3-acyl-1,3,4-oxadiazoline derivatives obtained from hydrazide-hydrazones [Hidrazid-hidrazonlardan elde edilen 3-açil- 2,3-dihidro-1,3,4-oksadiazol / 3-açil-1,3,4-oksadiazolin türevlerinin sentezi ve biyolojik aktiviteleri](2012-01-01) KARAKUŞ, SEVGİ; Rollas S., Karakuş S.In this review, the synthesis and biological activities of 3-acyl-2,3-dihydro-1,3,4- oxadiazole derivatives are reported.

Three compounds from our series were distinguished from the others by their promising activity profiles against Mycobacterium tuberculosis strain H(37)Rv. Compounds 11 and 19 were the most active representatives with minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values of 10.96 and 11.48 mu m, respectively. Compound 15 was shown to inhibit M. tuberculosis strain H(37)Rv with an MIC value of 17.81 mu m. Cytotoxicity results in the Vero cell line showed that these three derivatives had selectivity indices between 1.8 and 8.7. In order to rationalize the biological results of our compounds, molecular docking studies with the enoyl acyl carrier protein reductase (InhA) of M. tuberculosis were performed and compounds 11, 15, and 19 were found to have good docking scores in the range of -7.12 to -7.83 kcal/mol.Publication Metadata only Synthesis, anticancer evaluation and in silico ADMET studies on urea/thiourea derivatives from gabapentin(TAYLOR & FRANCIS LTD, 2020) KAYMAKÇIOĞLU, BEDİA; Turk, Sevda; Tok, Fatih; Erdogan, Omer; Cevik, Ozge; Tok, Tugba Taskin; Kocyigit-Kaymakcioglu, Bedia; Karakus, Sevgi2-(1-((3-Substitutedureido/thioureido)methyl)cyclohexyl)acetic acid derivatives (1-9) were synthesized from gabapentin. All the synthesized compounds were characterized by using IR, H-1-NMR, C-13-NMR spectroscopy, mass spectrometry and elemental analysis. Urea and thiourea derivatives were investigated for their potential in vitro anticancer activities on PC3 and MCF7 cancer cell lines using MTT assay. Cell apoptosis was detected by with Annexin V Assay. Our results showed that compound 8 {2-(1-((3-(2,6-dichlorophenyl)ureido)methyl)cyclohexyl)acetic acid} significantly inhibited the proliferation and growing of PC3 and MCF7 cells. Both cell types showed dysfunction of cellular morphology which induced apoptosis 10 mu M concentration of compound 8 treated cells. Our results indicate that compound 8 might have significance as an anti-tumor agent against human prostate and breast cancer. The theoretical structure and activity estimation via in silico ADMET was also examined.Publication Metadata only Synthesis, anticancer activity and ADMET studies of N-(5-methyl-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl)-4-[(3-substituted)ureido/thioureido] benzenesulfonamide derivatives(TAYLOR & FRANCIS LTD, 2018) KAYMAKÇIOĞLU, BEDİA; Karakus, S.; Tok, F.; Tuerk, S.; Salva, E.; Tatar, G.; Taskin-Tok, T.; Kocyigit-Kaymakcioglu, B.A series of novel 4-[(3-substituted)ureido]-N-(5-methyl-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl) benzenesulfonamides and 4-[(3-substituted)thioureido]-N-(5-methyl-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl)benzenesulfonamides were prepared from 4-amino-N-(5-methyl-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl)benzenesulfonamide (sulfamethizole). The structures of the synthesized compounds were determined by IR, H-1-NMR, MS and elemental analysis.

The synthesized compounds were screened for their antituberculosis activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H(37)Rv using BACI EC 460 radiometric system. Among the tested compounds, 2-(4-nitrophenyl)amino-5-[4-(3-(4-phenoxy))benzylideneaminophenyl]-1,3,4-thiadiazole (3n) showed the highest inhibitory activity (80%). The activities of the newly synthesized Schiff bases were higher in comparison to those of intermediate products 2-(4-aminophenyl)-5-aryl/alkylamino-1,3,4-thiadiazoles (2a-l). The computational studies were also performed to estimate drug-like profile of the compounds by using QikProp analysis.Publication Metadata only Synthesis and Anticonvulsant Activity of New N-(Alkyl/Substituted aryl)-N '-[4-(5-cyclohexylamino)-1,3,4-thiadiazole-2-yl)pheny]thioureas(WILEY-V C H VERLAG GMBH, 2009) KAYMAKÇIOĞLU, BEDİA; Karakus, Sevgi; Kocyigit-Kaymakcioglu, Bedia; Toklu, Hale Z.; Aricioglu, Feyza; Rollas, SevimA series of novel thiourea derivatives carrying the 5-cylohexylamino-1,3,4-thiadiazole moiety was synthesized and their anticonvulsant activity was evaluated. Structures of the synthesized compounds have been confirmed by IR, H-1-NMR, and elemental analysis. All of the compounds were administered at a dose of 50 mg/kg. Some of the active compounds have different effects in pentylenetetrazole (PTZ) and maximal electroshock (MES) tests, indicating the therapeutical potential in petit mal seizures, but not in grand mal seizures. Compounds 10, 11, 13, and 14 carrying 2-methylphenyl, 4-chlorophenyl, allyl, and 4-methylphenyl on the thiourea pharmacophore, increased the survival rate in the PTZ model.
