Computational Prediction of 3,5-Diaryl-1H-Pyrazole and spiropyrazolines derivatives as potential acetylcholinesterase inhibitors for alzheimer disease treatment by 3D-QSAR, molecular docking, molecular dynamics simulation, and ADME-Tox

Abstract

test = 0.727). Also, contour maps produced by CoMSIA/SE model have been employed to prove the key structural needs of the activity. Consequently, six new compounds have been generated. Among these compounds, M4 and M5 were the most active but remained toxic and had poor absorption capacities. While the M1, M2, M3 and M6 remained highly active while respecting ADMET's characteristics. Molecular docking results showed compound M2 better with acetylcholinesterase than compound 22. The interactions are classical hydrogen bonding with residues TYR:124, TYR:72, and SER:293, which play a critical role in the biological activity as AChE inhibitors. MD results confirmed the docking results and showed that compound M2 had satisfactory stability with (ΔGbinding = -151.225 KJ/mol) in the active site of AChE receptor compared with compound 22 (ΔGbinding = -133.375 KJ/mol). In addition, both compounds had good stability regarding RMSD, Rg, and RMSF. The previous results show that the newly designed compound M2 is more active in the active site of AChE receptor than compound 22.Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.
