abstract = "Whereas nonselective nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, such as aspirin, ibuprofen and
diclofenac, inhibit both cyclooxygenase-1 and cyclooxigenase-2 enzymes, selective inhibitors
target cyclooxygenase-2, which is overexpressed in inflammation, but also in cancer,
atherosclerosis, Alzheimer's disease, and Parkinson`s disease. Potential cardiovascular and
hepatic side effects of cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitors have limited their use. The development of
selective and safe cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitors remains a high priority in drug discovery. Based
on the structure of previously investigated newly synthesized β-hydroxy-β-arylpropanoic acids,
two groups of compounds were designed: analogs in which one of the benzene rings was replaced
by a pyrazole, while the carboxyl group was retained, and amides of β-hydroxy-β-arylpropanoic
acids with pyrazole. The compounds were docked into the 3D structure of the catalytic site of the
enzyme cyclooxygenase-2 using AutoDock Vina 1.2.0. and the obtained interactions were
compared with the interactions of celecoxib, a selective inhibitor. The amides had lower binding
energies than the designed acids, which makes them attractive target compounds for synthesis
and further examination., Neselektivni nesteroidni antiinflamatorni lekovi poput aspirina, ibuprofena i diklofenaka
inhibiraju enzime ciklooksigenazu-1 i ciklooksigenazu-2, a selektivni inhibitori ciljaju
ciklooksigenazu-2 koja je prekomerno izražena u inflamaciji, ali takođe i kod kancera,
ateroskleroze, Parkinsonove i Alchajmerove bolesti. Potencijalni kardiovaskularni i hepatički
neželjeni efekti selektivnih inhibitora ciklooksigenaze-2 su ograničili njihovu primenu. Razvoj
selektivnih i bezbednih inhibitora ciklooksigenaze-2 ostaje veoma prioritetna oblast u otkrivanju
lekova. Na osnovu strukture prethodno istraživanih novosintetisanih β-hidroksi-β-arilpropanskih
kiselina dizajnirane su dve grupe jedinjenja: analozi u kojima je jedan od benzenovih prstenova
zamenjen pirazolom, uz zadržavanje karboksilne grupe, i amidi β-hidroksi-β-arilpropanskih
kiselina sa pirazolom. Program AutoDock Vina 1.2.0 je korišćen za dokovanje dizajniranih
jedinjenja u 3D strukturu katalitičkog mesta enzima ciklooksigenaze-2, a ostvarene interakcije su
upoređene sa interakcijama koje ostvaruje selektivni inhibitor celekoksib. Amidi su imali nižu
energiju vezivanja od kiselina, što ih čini dobrim kandidatima za sintezu.",
