Abstract in Portuguese
Anteriormente, foi identificada a atividade esquistossomicida da piplartina, um alcalóide-amida isolado em nossos estudos de bioprospecção em plantas da família Piperaceae. Neste trabalho, foi analisada a estrutura e as propriedades de uma série de análogos da piplartina para avaliar a relação estrutura-atividade. A atividade de análogos sintéticos da piplartina foi avaliada in vitro em vermes adultos de S. mansoni. Primeiro, os análogos foram testados a 50 e 100 μg/mL. Os compostos ativos foram selecionados para a determinação dos valores de IC50. Ao todo, 36 análogos com modificações em três regiões da piplartina foram avaliados. Todas as modificações tiveram uma influência negativa na atividade biológica; no entanto, uma seletividade específica entre os gêneros foi observada. Seis análogos tiveram os valores de IC50 determinados, variando entre 72,33 a 216,86 μM. As diferenças na atividade esquistossomicida entre a piplartina e seus análogos podem ser atribuídas a alterações na forma, equilíbrio hidrofílico-lipofílico e distribuição de carga eletrostática.

Abstract in English
Previously, the schistosomicidal activity of piplartine, an alkaloid-amide isolated in our bioprospection studies with plants from Piperaceae species, was identified. In this work, we analyzed the structure and properties of a series of piplartine derivatives to propose a structure-activity relationship model. In vitro activity was evaluated in S. mansoni adult worms exposed in vitro to piplartine synthetic analogs. First, analogs were screened at 50 and 100 μg/mL. Active compounds were selected to the determination of IC50 values. A total of 36 synthetic piplartine analogs with modifications in three regions of the piplartine molecule were evaluated. All the modifications had a negative influence in the biological activity; nevertheless, a gender specific selectivity was observed. Of all the analogs, 6 had the IC50 values determined, ranging from 72.33 a 216.86 μM. Differences in the schistosomicidal activity between piplartine and its analogs could be attributed to changes in shape, hydrophilic-lipophilic equilibrium and electrostatic charge distribution.
