    Abstract:
    Targeting of protein tyrosine phosphatase-1B (PTP1B) has emerged as a promising strategy for therapeutic intervention of diabetes and obesity. Investigation of new inhibitors with good bioavailability and high selectivity is the major challenge of drug discovery program targeting PTP1B. Therefore, herein, new neutral benzene-sulfonamide containing compounds were designed, synthesized and biologically evaluated as potent PTP1B inhibitors. New series of thiazolidine, oxazolidine, thiazinan, oxazinan, oxazole, thiazole, tetrazole, cyanopyridine, chromenone, and iminochromene of benzene-sulfonamide derivatives (MSE-1 to MSE-15) were synthesized in a good yield under mild condition using sulfadiazine as a starting material. Among the synthesized compounds, MSE-13 and MSE-14 showed the most in vitro potent PTP-1B inhibitory activity (IC50 of 0.88 µM and 3.33 µM, respectively). Animal treatment by the target compounds significantly improved the insulin resistance, diminished plasma glucose level, decreased initial body weight, and normalized the serum lipid profile compared to pioglitazone, a standard PTP1B inhibitor. The molecular modeling study showed a high affinity and selectivity of our synthesized compounds to the active site and B-site of PTP1B holding hydrogen bonding, hydrophobic, and electrostatic interactions. Furthermore, Electrostatic Surface Potential (ESP) and HOMO/LUMO analysis indicated the importance of sulfamoyl moiety for PTP1B binding. In silico ADME predictions of such compounds also showed the promising pharmacokinetic and physicochemical properties. The proposed compounds could be considered a lead inhibitory scaffold to PTP1B.
