The search and development of effective sirtuin small molecule inhibitors (SIRTIs) continues to draw great attention due to their wide range of pharmacological applications. Based on SIRTs' involvement in different biological pathways, their ligands were investigated for many diseases, such as cancer, neurodegenerative disorders, diabetes, cardiovascular diseases and autoimmune diseases. The elucidation of a substantial number of SIRT2-ligand complexes is steering the identification of novel and more selective modulators. Among them, SIRT2 in the presence of the SirReal2 analog series was the most studied. On this basis, we recently reported structure-based analyses leading to the discovery of thiazole-based compounds acting as SIRT2 inhibitors (T1, SIRT2 IC50 = 17.3 µM). Herein, ligand-based approaches followed by molecular docking simulations allowed us to evaluate in silico a novel small series of thiazoles (3a-3d and 5a, 5d) as putative SIRT2 inhibitors. Results from the computational studies revealed comparable molecular interaction fields (MIFs) and docking positionings of most of these compounds with respect to reference SIRT2Is. Biochemical and biological assays validated this study and pointed to compound 5a (SIRT2 IC50 = 9.0 µM) as the most interesting SIRT2I that was worthy of further development as an anticancer agent.
