Evaluation of di-sansalvamide A derivatives: synthesis, structure-activity relationship, and mechanism of action.

ABSTRACT: Described is the SAR of 18 di-sansalvamide A derivatives and the mechanism of action of the most potent compound. We show that this scaffold is a promising lead in the development of novel cancer therapeutics because it is cytotoxic at nanomolar potency, inhibits a well-established oncogenic target (Hsp90), and does not share structural motifs with current drugs on the market.

New chalcone derivatives: synthesis, antiviral activity and mechanism of action.

Project description:In this work, twenty-eight chalcone derivatives containing a purine (sulfur) ether moiety were synthesized and their antiviral activities were evaluated. Biological results showed that compound 5d exhibited outstanding inactive activity against tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) in vivo (EC50 = 65.8 μg mL-1), which is significantly superior to that of ribavirin (EC50 = 154.3 μg mL-1). Transmission electron microscopy indicated that compound 5d can break the integrity of TMV particles. The results of microscale thermophoresis, fluorescence titration and molecular docking showed that compound 5d had stronger combining affinity (K a = 1.02 ×105 L mol-1, K d = 13.4 μmol L-1) with TMV coat protein (TMV-CP), which is due to the formation of five hydrogen bonds between compound 5d and the amino-acid residues of TMV-CP. These findings revealed that compound 5d can effectively inhibit the infective ability of TMV. This work provides inspiration and reference for the discovery of new antiviral agents.

Synthesis and evaluation of tirbanibulin derivatives: a detailed exploration of the structure-activity relationship for anticancer activity.

Project description:Tirbanibulin, an FDA-approved microtubule-targeting agent (MTA) introduced in 2020, represents a pioneering treatment for precancerous actinic keratosis. Despite its failure to gain approval as an anticancer agent due to insufficient efficacy, there remains potential value in extending its application into malignancy treatment through tirbanibulin-based derivatives. Tirbanibulin possesses a distinctive dual mechanism of action involving microtubule and Src inhibition, distinguishing it from other MTAs. In spite of its unique profile, exploration of tirbanibulin's structure-activity relationship (SAR) and the development of its derivatives are significantly limited in the current literature. This study addresses this gap by synthesizing various tirbanibulin derivatives and exploring their SAR through modifications in the core amide motif and the eastern benzylamine part. Our results underscore the critical role of the pyridinyl acetamide core structure for optimal cellular potency, with favorable tolerance observed for modifications at the para position of the benzylamine moiety. Particularly noteworthy is the analogue modified with p-fluorine benzylamine, which exhibited favorable in vivo PK profiles. These findings provide crucial insights into the potential advancement of tirbanibulin-based compounds as promising anticancer agents.

Diarylamine-Guided Carboxamide Derivatives: Synthesis, Biological Evaluation, and Potential Mechanism of Action.

Project description:Diarylamines are a class of important skeleton widely existing in drugs or natural products. To discover novel diarylamine analogues as potential drugs, two series of diamide and carboxamide derivatives containing diarylamine scaffold were designed, synthesized and evaluated for their potential cytotoxic activities. The bioassay results indicated that some of the obtained compounds (C5, C6, C7, C11) exhibited good cytotoxic effect on cancer cell lines (SGC-7901, A875, HepG2), especially, compound C11 present significantly selective proliferation inhibition activity on cancer and normal cell lines (MARC145). In addition, the possible apoptosis induction for highly potential molecules was investigated, which present compound C11 could be used as novel lead compound for discovery of promising anticancer agents.

Antiplasmodial activity, structure–activity relationship and studies on the action of novel benzimidazole derivatives

Project description:Malaria cases and deaths keep being excessively high every year. Some inroads gained in the last two decades have been eroded especially due to the surge of resistance to most antimalarials. The search for new molecules that can replace the ones currently in use cannot stop. In this report, the synthesis of benzimidazole derivatives guided by structure–activity parameters is presented. Thirty-six molecules obtained are analyzed according to their activity against P. falciparum HB3 strain based on the type of substituent on rings A and B, their electron donor/withdrawing, as well as their dimension/spatial properties. There is a preference for electron donating groups on ring A, such as Me in position 5, or better, 5, 6-diMe. Ring B must be of the pyridine type such as picolinamide, other modifications are generally not favorable. Two molecules, 1 and 33 displayed antiplasmodial activity in the high nanomolar range against the chloroquine sensitive strain, with selectivity indexes above 10. Activity results of 1, 12 and 16 on a chloroquine resistance strain indicated an activity close to chloroquine for compound 1. Analysis of some of their effect on the parasites seem to suggest that 1 and 33 affect only the parasite and use a route other than interference with hemozoin biocrystallization, the route used by chloroquine and most antimalarials.

Synthesis of ureidomuraymycidine derivatives for structure-activity relationship studies of muraymycins.

Project description:One of the key constituents of the muraymycins is the 6-membered cyclic guanidine, (2S,3S)-muraymycidine (or epi-capreomycidine). In order to diversify the structure of the oligopeptide moiety of the muraymycins for thorough structure-activity relationship studies, we have developed a highly stereoselective synthesis of ureidomuraymycidine derivatives with the lactone 4a.

A comprehensive study of Sansalvamide A derivatives: The structure-activity relationships of 78 derivatives in two pancreatic cancer cell lines.

Project description:We report an extensive structure-activity relationship (SAR) of 78 compounds active against two pancreatic cancer cell lines. Our comprehensive evaluation of these compounds utilizes SAR that allow us to evaluate which features of potent compounds play a key role in their cytotoxicity. This is the first report of 19 new second-generation structures, where these new compounds were designed from the first generation of 59 compounds. These 78 structures were tested for their cytotoxicity and this is the first report of their activity against two pancreatic cancer cell lines. Our results show that out of 78 compounds, three compounds are worth pursuing as leads, as they show potency of 55% in both cancer cell lines. These three compounds all have a common structural motif, two consecutive d-amino acids and an N-methyl moiety. Further, of these three compounds, two are second-generation structures, indicating that we can incorporate and utilize data from the first generation to design potency into the second generation. Finally, one analog is in the mid nanomolar range, and has the lowest IC(50) of any reported San A derivative. These analogs share no structural homology to current pancreatic cancer drugs, and are cytotoxic at levels on par with existing drugs treating other cancers. Thus, we have established Sansalvamide A as an excellent lead for killing multiple pancreatic cancer cell lines.

Synthesis and Structure-Activity Relationship of Daphnetin Derivatives as Potent Antioxidant Agents.

Project description:In this study, daphnetin 1 was chosen as the lead compound, and C-3 or C-4-substituted daphnetins were designed and synthesized to explore the potential relationship between the antioxidant activities and the chemical structures of daphnetin derivatives. The antioxidant activities of the generated compounds were evaluated utilizing the free radical scavenging effect on 2,2'-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl, 2,2'-azinobis-(3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulfonate) cation, and the ferric reducing power assays, and were then compared with those of the standard antioxidant Trolox. The results showed that the catechol group was the key pharmacophore for the antioxidant activity of the daphnetins. The introduction of an electron-withdrawing hydrophilic group at the C-4 position of daphnetin enhanced the antioxidative capacity, but this trend was not observed for C-3 substitution. In addition, introduction of a a hydrophobic phenyl group exerted negative effects on the antioxidant activity in both the C-3 and C-4 substitutions. Among all of the derivatives tested, the most powerful antioxidant was 4-carboxymethyl daphnetin (compound 9), for which the strongest antioxidant activity was observed in all of the assays. In addition, compound 9 also displayed strong pharmaceutical properties in the form of metabolic stability. To summarize, compound 9 holds great potential to be developed as an antioxidant agent with excellent antioxidant activity and proper pharmacokinetic behavior.

Enhanced Cytotoxic Activity of PEGylated Curcumin Derivatives: Synthesis, Structure-Activity Evaluation, and Biological Activity.

Project description:Curcumin has been modified in various ways to broaden its application in medicine and address its limitations. In this study, we present a series of curcumin-based derivatives obtained by replacing the hydroxy groups in the feruloyl moiety with polyethylene glycol (PEG) chains and the addition of the BF2 moiety to the carbonyl groups. Tested compounds were screened for their cytotoxic activity toward two bladder cancer cell lines, 5637 and SCaBER, and a noncancerous cell line derived from lung fibroblasts (MRC-5). Cell viability was analyzed under normoxic and hypoxic conditions (1% oxygen). Structure-activity relationships (SARs) are discussed, and curcumin derivatives equipped within feruloyl moieties with 3-methoxy and 4-{2-[2-(2-methoxyethoxy)ethoxy]ethoxy} substituents (5) were selected for further analysis. Compound 5 did not affect the viability of MRC-5 cells and exerted a stronger cytotoxic effect under hypoxic conditions. However, the flow cytometry studies showed that PEGylation did not improve cellular uptake. Another observation was that the lack of serum proteins limits the intracellular uptake of curcumin derivative 5. The preliminary mechanism of action studies indicated that compound 5 under hypoxic conditions induced G2/M arrest in a dose-dependent manner and increased the expression of stress-related proteins such as p21/CIP1, phosphorylated HSP27, ADAMTS-1, and phosphorylated JNK. In summary, the results of the studies indicated that PEGylated curcumin is a more potent compound against bladder cancer cell lines than the parent compound, and derivative 5 is worthy of further investigation to clarify its mechanism of anticancer action under hypoxic conditions.

Synthesis and Structure-Activity Relationship of Pyxinol Derivatives as Novel Anti-Inflammatory Agents.

Project description:Pyxinol, the main metabolite of 20S-protopanaxadiol in human liver, was chosen as a novel skeleton for the development of anti-inflammatory agents. Pyxinol derivatives modified at C-3, C-12, or C-25 and selected stereoisomers were designed, prepared, and investigated for in vitro anti-inflammatory activities. Structure-activity relationship (SAR), focused on skeleton, was analyzed based on their ability to inhibit lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced nitric oxide (NO) synthesis. The preliminary SAR results signified that the biological activity of the pyxinol derivatives is largely dependent on the R/S stereochemistry of pyxinol skeleton and the hydroxy at C-3 is a modifiable position. Among the tested compounds, the 3-oximinopyxinol (4a) exhibited the most potent NO-inhibitory activity and was even comparable to the steroid drug. Furthermore, compound 4a also significantly decreased LPS-induced TNF-α and IL-6 synthesis and iNOS and COX-2 expressions via the NF-κB pathway. This study proves that pyxinol is an interesting skeleton for anti-inflammatory drug discovery.

Design, Synthesis and Structure-Activity Relationship Optimization of Lycorine Derivatives for HCV Inhibition.

Project description:Lycorine is reported to be a multifunctional compound. We previously showed that lycorine is an HCV inhibitor with strong activity. Further research on the antivirus mechanism indicated that lycorine does not affect the enzymes that are indispensable to HCV replication but suppresses the expression of Hsc70 in the host cell to limit HCV replication. However, due to the cytotoxicity and apoptosis induction of lycorine, lycorine is unsafe to be a anti-HCV agent for clinical application. As a result of increasing interest, its structure was optimized for the first time and a novel series of lycorine derivatives was synthesized, all of which lost their cytotoxicity to different degrees. Structure-activity analysis of these compounds revealed that disubstitution on the free hydroxyl groups at C1 and C2 and/or degradation of the benzodioxole group would markedly reduce the cytotoxicity. Furthermore, an α, β-unsaturated ketone would improve the HCV inhibitory activity of lycorine. The C3-C4 double bond is crucial to the anti-HCV activity because hydrogenation of this double bond clearly weakened HCV inhibition.
