Functionalizing Thiosemicarbazones for Covalent Conjugation [PDF]
Thiosemicarbazones (TSCs) with their modular character (thiosemicarbazides + carbonyl compound) allow broad variation of up to four substituents on the main R1R2C=N(1)–NH–C(S)–N(4)R3R4 core and are thus interesting tools for the formation of conjugates ...

Evolution of Thiosemicarbazones: From First- to Second-Generation Metal Chelators and Their Reactive Oxygen Species-Mediated Effects in Melanoma. [PDF]
Thiosemicarbazones (TSC) have demonstrated promise as new chemotherapeutic agents against melanoma in both in vitro and In vivo studies. TSC are powerful metal coordinating agents, coordinating transition metal ions such as zinc, copper and iron in multiple oxidation states. It is this metal coordination that imparts the anticancer activity.

Cruzain Inhibitors for Chagas Disease: Anticorrelated Optimisation Landscapes and the Multiparametric Path to Clinical Candidates. [PDF]
Three decades of cruzain‐targeted drug discovery have yielded 215 sub‐micromolar inhibitors but no clinical candidates. This review diagnoses a systemic translational failure driven by single‐parameter optimisation and proposes a multiparametric framework integrating enzymatic potency, cathepsin selectivity, intracellular exposure, and metabolic ...

Monoamine Oxidase and Cholinesterase Inhibition Profiles of Semicarbazone and Thiosemicarbazone Derivatives. [PDF]
Thiosemicarbazones generally show higher MAO‐B inhibitory potential than their corresponding semicarbazones, and particularly T6 is the most potent, which contains R = H and X = S in its Tail Unit, with an IC50 value of 6.45 µM with SI of 3.6. ABSTRACT Twenty semicarbazone and thiosemicarbazone derivatives (T1–T20) were synthesized and evaluated for ...
