| Abstract | Glutathione peroxidases (GPx) were the first selenocysteine enzymes identified. They play critical roles in cellular defense to excess $$\hbox {H}_{2}\hbox {O}_{2}$$ and lipid peroxides, with GPx1 contributing the most cellular activity. In the treatment of cancer, for example, in lymphomas and leukaemias, evidence has been accumulating that up-regulation of the GPx system may serve to protect cancer cells from oxidative stress caused by anticancer drugs. We hypothesize that small molecules which block GPx1 could help overcome acquired resistance to anticancer drugs by raising the level of oxidative stress in cancer cells. Our previous efforts identified an acylhydrazone as a lead structure for the inhibition of GPx1. Now we report the microwave-supported synthesis and inhibitory screening of a series of 78 analogs. The special conformational isomerism resulting of the acylhydrazone functionality was investigated by the analysis of distinct NMR data and crystal structures, indicating that conformers at the C(O)–N hydrazide bond are responsible for this phenomena. Though some of the analogs showed poor aqueous solubility and could not be tested in the enzyme assay, the combinatorial approach led to the identification of a closely related isomer of the lead compound with increased inhibitory activity: $${N'}$$ -[1-(4-hydroxyphenyl)ethylidene]-2-(1H-imidazol-1-yl)acetohydrazide. This success supports the idea that novel GPx1 inhibitors can be developed by drug-design methods and paves the way for a new class of GPx1 inhibitors. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
