AB  - In an effort to design dual acting compounds enhancing histaminergic neurotransmission in the central nervous system, a novel class of 35 non-imidazole histamine H-3 receptor (H3R) antagonists that simultaneously possess strong inhibitory potency on catabolic histamine N-methyltransferase (HMT), have been examined by 3D-QSAR study. For improved understanding, the crucial chemical functionalities for combined H3R/HMT activities 3D-QSAR pharmacophore models (H3R: R-2 (0.98), Q(2)(0.94), RMSE (0.171); and HMT: R-2 (0.80), Q(2) (0.60), RMSE (0.159) were developed. Pharmacophore for H3R antagonistic activity mainly differs from pharmacophore for HMT inhibiting activity in presence of specific lipophilic/steric components of the H3R pharmacophore, H-bond accepting components of the H3R pharmacophore, H-bond donating components of the HMT pharmacophore, and longer optimal distance between H-bond donor and steric hot spots in the H3R pharmacophore than in the HMT pharmacophore. Formed 3D-QSAR models were applied for design of novel piperidino-aminoquinoline hybrids as multitarget H3R/HMT ligands with potential impact in therapy of sleep-wake disorders and cognitive impairment. Designed compounds with 3D-QSAR predicted pKi (H3R) > 9.6 and (pKi (H3R) + pIC(50)(HMT)) > 16.8 were selected for further profiling. Virtual screening of ZINC database is performed against the most promising H3R/HMT ligand and top ranked compounds are tested by both 3D-QSAR models.

AB  - Recently developed multi-targeted ligands are novel drug candidates able to interact with monoamine oxidase A and B; acetylcholinesterase and butyrylcholinesterase; or with histamine N-methyltransferase and histamine H-3-receptor (H3R). These proteins are drug targets in the treatment of depression, Alzheimer's disease, obsessive disorders, and Parkinson's disease. A probabilistic method, the Parzen-Rosenblatt window approach, was used to build a "predictor" model using data collected from the ChEMBL database. The model can be used to predict both the primary pharmaceutical target and off-targets of a compound based on its structure. Molecular structures were represented based on the circular fingerprint methodology. The same approach was used to build a "predictor" model from the DrugBank dataset to determine the main pharmacological groups of the compound. The study of off-target interactions is now recognised as crucial to the understanding of both drug action and toxicology. Primary pharmaceutical targets and off-targets for the novel multi-target ligands were examined by use of the developed cheminformatic method. Several multi-target ligands were selected for further study, as compounds with possible additional beneficial pharmacological activities. The cheminformatic targets identifications were in agreement with four 3D-QSAR (H3R/D1R/D2R/5-HT2aR) models and by in vitro assays for serotonin 5-HT1a and 5-HT2a receptor binding of the most promising ligand (71/MBA-VEG8).

AB  - The histamine H-3 receptor (H3R) is an important modulator of numerous central control mechanisms. Novel lead optimizations for H3R antagonists/inverse agonists involved studies of structure-activity relationships, cross-affinities, and pharmacokinetic properties of promising ligands. Blockade of inhibitory histamine H-3 autoreceptors reinforces histaminergic transmission, while antagonism of H-3 heteroreceptors accelerates the corticolimbic liberation of acetylcholine, norepinephrine, glutamate, dopamine, serotonin and gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA). The H3R positioned at numerous neurotransmission crossroads indicates therapeutic applications of small-molecule H3R modulators in a number of psychiatric and neurodegenerative diseases with various clinical candidates available. Dual target drugs displaying H3R antagonism/inverse agonism with inhibition of acetylcholine esterase (AChE), histamine N-methyltransferase (HMT), or serotonin transporter (SERT) are novel class of procognitive agents. Main chemical diversities, pharmacophores, and pharmacological profiles of procognitive agents acting as H3R antagonists/inverse agonists and dual H3R antagonists/inverse agonists with inhibiting activity on AChE, HMT, or SERT are highlighted here.
