摘要
We have synthesized the Morita-Baylis-Hillman adduct (MBHA) 3-hydroxy-2-methylene-3-(4-nitrophenyl)-propanenitrile (3) in quantitative yield and evaluated on Trypanosoma cruzi epimastigote and bloodstream trypomastigote forms. Compound 3 strongly inhibited epimastigote growth, with IC50/72 h of 28.5 mu M and also caused intense trypomastigotes lysis, with an IC50/24 h of 25.5 mu M. Ultrastructural analysis showed significant morphological changes on both parasite forms treated with 3, including increase of cell volume and rounding of cell body as well as intense intracellular disorganization. Morphological changes indicative of apoptosis, autophagy or necrosis were observed in most affected cells. Docking calculations of 1,2 and 3 pointed out the possibility of T. cruzi Farnesyl Pyrophosphate Synthase (TcFPFS) enzyme inhibition in 3 mechanism of action. (C) 2010 Elsevier Inc.
