Özet
The inhibition of aldose reductase (ALR2) presents a promising strategy for mitigating diabetes-related complications. In this study, eighteen novel thiazolidin-2,4-dione derivatives were synthesized and evaluated for their ALR2 inhibitory activity, with several exhibiting superior inhibition compared to the standard inhibitor epalrestat (EPR). Among them, compound 11 (4-trifluoromethylbenzene substituted) emerged as the most potent competitive inhibitor (Ki = 0.051 µM), demonstrating 19-fold higher activity than EPR. Molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulations further highlighted compound 11’s stable binding and key interactions with ALR2 active site residues, including Trp-111 and Tyr-209. Cytotoxicity assays performed on healthy cell lines (HUVEC and BEAS-B2) revealed that the tested compounds were non-toxic at inhibitory concentrations, with compound 3 (isovanillin substituted) exhibiting the …
