摘要
Leishmaniasis is a group of neglected, vector-borne infectious diseases that affect millions of people around the world. The medications available for its treatment, especially in cases of visceral leishmaniasis, are old, outdated and have serious side effects. In this work, 10 chalcones were synthesised and evaluated in vitro against promastigotes and axenic amastigotes of Leishmania infantum. Compounds CP04 and CP06 were the most promising, respectively presenting IC50 values = 13.64 +/- 0.25 and 11.19 +/- 0.22 mu M against promastigotes, and IC50 = 18.92 +/- 0.05 and 22.42 +/- 0.05 mu M against axenic amastigotes. Only compound CP04 did not show cytotoxicity against peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs). Molecular docking studies conducted with sterol 14-alpha demethylase (CYP-51) (PDB: 3L4D) and trypanothione reductase (PDB: 5EBK) enzymes from L. infantum evidenced the great affinity of compound CP04 for these targets, presenting Moldock score values of -94.0758 and -50.5692 KJ/mol-1.
