Özet
Aldose reductase (ALR2) inhibition is a promising therapeutic strategy for managing diabetes-related complications, including neuropathy, retinopathy, and nephropathy. This study reports the design, synthesis, and biological evaluation of eighteen novel quinazolin-4(3H)-one derivatives incorporating a 4-bromo-2-fluorobenzylidene moiety as ALR2 inhibitors. Among the synthesized compounds, the cyclohexyl-substituted derivative (compound 9) exhibited the highest potency as a competitive ALR2 inhibitor, with a Ki of 0.064 μM—15 times more effective than the standard inhibitor epalrestat (EPR) (Ki = 0.967 μM). Molecular docking and dynamics simulations revealed stable binding interactions between compound 9 and key residues in the ALR2 active site, such as Trp-111, Tyr-209, Trp-20, and Ser-302. Cytotoxicity assays on HUVEC and BEAS-B2 cell lines demonstrated that the most active compounds, were …
