Structure and Ligand Based Virtual Screening and MPO Topological Analysis of Triazolo Thiadiazepine-fused Coumarin Derivatives as Anti-Parkinson Drug Candidates.

Parkinson's disease (PD) is a debilitating condition that can cause locomotor problems in affected patients, such as tremors and body rigidity. PD therapy often includes the use of monoamine oxidase B (MAOB) inhibitors, particularly phenylhalogen compounds and coumarin-based semi-synthetic compounds. The objective of this study was to analyze the structural, pharmacokinetic, and pharmacodynamic profile of a series of Triazolo Thiadiazepine-fused Coumarin Derivatives (TDCDs) against MAOB, in comparison with the inhibitor safinamide. To achieve this goal, we utilized structure-based virtual screening techniques, including target prediction and absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME) prediction based on multi-parameter optimization (MPO) topological analysis, as well as ligand-based virtual screening techniques, such as docking and molecular dynamics. The findings indicate that the TDCDs exhibit structural similarity to other bioactive compounds containing coumarin and MAOB-binding azoles, which are present in the ChEMBL database. The topological analyses suggest that TDCD3 has the best ADME profile, particularly due to the alignment between low lipophilicity and high polarity. The coumarin and triazole portions make a strong contribution to this profile, resulting in a permeability with P
