Abstract
Novel 2-thioxothiazole derivatives (6–19) as potential adenosine A2A receptor (A2AR) antagonists were synthesized. The strong interaction of the compounds (6–19) with A2AR in docking study was confirmed by high binding affinity with human A2AR expressed in HEK293T cells using radioligand-binding assay. The compound 19 demonstrated very high selectivity for A2AR as compared to standard A2AR antagonist SCH58261. Decrease in A2AR-coupled release of endogenous cAMP in treated HEK293T cells demonstrated in vitro A2AR antagonist potential of the compound 19. Attenuation in haloperidol-induced impairment (catalepsy) in Swiss albino male mice pre-treated with compound 19 is evocative to explore its prospective in therapy of PD.
