“…Reactive oxygen species (ROS) and reactive nitrogen species are well known as both harmful and beneficial species. Oxidative stress that gives increase to generation of mainly ROS has been connected with an extensive range of diseases including those of cardiovascular, inflammatory, neurodegenerative, and autoimmune origin 4,5 .…”

“…In our ongoing study, we have synthesized various series of indole derivatives, with some modifications on MLT ( Figure 1) 4,[6][7][8][9] . The synthesized bioisosteric MLT analogues have been evaluated for their potential radical scavenging activity and protective effect against oxidative damage 4,[6][7][8][9] .…”

Overproduction of reactive oxygen species results in oxidative stress that can cause fatal damage to vital cell structures. It is known that the use of antioxidants could be beneficial in the prevention or delay of numerous diseases associated with oxidative stress. Melatonin (MLT) is known as a powerful free-radical scavenger and antioxidant. It was found that indole ring of MLT can be employed by bioisosteric replacement by other aromatic rings. Quinoline derivatives constitute an important class of compounds for new drug development. Owing to quinoline and hydrazones appealing physiological properties and are mostly found in numerous biologically active compounds a series of quinoline-2-carbaldehyde hydrazone derivatives were synthesized as bioisosteric analogues of MLT, characterized and in vitro antioxidant activity was investigated by evaluating their reducing effect against oxidation of a redox-sensitive fluorescent probe. Cytotoxicity potential of all compounds was investigated both by lactate dehydrogenase leakage assay and by MTT assay.

“…Antioxidants are recently invented as the drug candidates to counter these diverse diseases, such as carcinogenesis, inflammation, and aging in aerobic organisms [4]. The design of small molecular agents to conflict cellular oxidative stress has become an important therapeutic objective, towards comprehensive damage to cellular macromolecules caused by reactive oxygen species (ROS) [5]. The extensive action of synthetic antioxidants is being ruled out owing to their toxicity and unwanted side effects and there is a growing interest in the use of the natural product as antioxidants and their derivatives for the treatment of oxidative stress-related diseases [6].…”
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
