RECENT DEVELOPMENTS AND MULTIPLE BIOLOGICAL ACTIVITIES AVAILABLE WITH 1, 8-NAPHTHYRIDINE DERIVATIVES: A REVIEW
Journal Title: International Journal of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences - Year 2019, Vol 11, Issue 1
Abstract
Within the wide range of nitrogen-containing heterocyclic compounds, the derivatives of 1,8-naphthyridine (NPTR) have gained a rising interest due to their reported versatile biological activities. The derivatives of NPTR scaffold are found to invite special interest from researchers nowadays on the significance of their manifestations of multiple attractive pharmacological activities which establish them as an effective and versatile tool in pharmaceutical chemistry and drug discovery. The diverse biological activities mainly include anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, antiviral, anticancer, antihypertensive and analgesic activities. Novel NPTR scaffold has emerged its potency to treat neurological diseases like depression and Alzheimer's disease. Further these agents possess different inhibitory activities, such as anti-HIV, anti-osteoporotic, αvβ3 antagonism, antimalarial, platelet aggregation, anti-oxidant, anti-allergic, gastric antisecretory, anticonvulsant, epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) inhibition, protein kinase inhibition, ionotropic properties, β3 antagonism, phosphodiesterase 4 (PDE 4) inhibitions, adenosine receptor agonistic activity, adrenoceptors antagonism and DNA stabilizing activity, etc. In this review, we highlight the updates of different 1,8-naphthyridine derivatives and explain the key data available in the context of various biological activities of NPTR derivatives available from the literature. This may direct opportunity in researches in the synthesis of novel medicinal agents and the development of new heterocycles for modification of existing biological actions as well as evaluation of other possible pharmacological activities.
