Alzheimer's disease (AD) leads to gradual memory loss including other compromised cognitive abilities. Acetylcholinesterase (AChE), an important biochemical enzyme from the cholinesterase (ChE) family, is recognized as primary pharmacological target for treating AD. Currently marketed drugs for AD treatment are primarily AChE inhibitors and coumarin derivatives comprising a wide variety of pharmacological activities have proved their efficacy towards AChE inhibition. Ensaculin (KA-672 HCl), a compound that belong to the coumarin family, is a clinical trial candidate for AD treatment. Therefore, a ligand library was prepared with 60 reported coumarin derivatives for field-based 3D-QSAR and pharmacophore modelling. The field-based 3D-QSAR model obtained at partial least square (PLS) factor 7, was the best validated model that predicted activity closer to original activity for each ligand introduced. The contour maps demonstrated spatial distribution of favourable and unfavorable steric, hydrophobic, electrostatic and H-bond donor and acceptor contours around coumarin nucleus. The best pharmacophore model, ADHRR_1 exhibited five essential pharmacophoric features of four different traits for optimum AChE inhibition. Virtual screening through ADHRR_1 accompanied with molecular docking and MM/GBSA identified 10 HITs from a 4,00,000 coumarin derivatives from PubChem database. HITs comprised docking scores ranging from -12.096 kcal/mol to -8.271 kcal/mol and compared with the reference drug Donepezil (-8.271 kcal/mol). ADME properties analysis led into detecting two leads (HIT 1 and HIT 2) among these 10 HITs. Molecular Dynamics Simulation indicated thermodynamic stability of the complex of lead compounds with AChE protein. Finally, thorough survey of the experimental results from 3D-QSAR modelling, pharmacophore modelling and molecular docking interactions led us to develop the lead formula I for future advancements in treating AD through AChE inhibitors.
