A Novel Class of Azoles with potent Anti-Leishmanial activity
2020
Objectives: To investigate the anti-leishmanial activity of novel azole compounds against Leishmania donovani, which causes deadly visceral leishmaniasis disease.
Methods: A focused azole-based library was screened both against promastigotes and amastigotes forms of L. donovani strains in flat-bottomed 96-well tissue-culture plates and J774A.1 macrophages infected with L. donovani. The comprehensive screening azole-based library against L. donovani strains provided novel hits, which can serve as a good starting point to initiate hit to lead optimization campaign.
Results: Hits identified from azole-based library exhibited potent in vitro activity against promastigotes and amastigotes of L. donovani.
Conclusions: These potent novel azole hits could be a good starting point to carry out for further medicinal chemistry exploration for anti-leishmania program.
