Dual targeting of histone deacetylase and topoisomerase II with novel bifunctional inhibitors.

ABSTRACT: Strategies to ameliorate the flaws of current chemotherapeutic agents, while maintaining potent anticancer activity, are of particular interest. Agents which can modulate multiple targets may have superior utility and fewer side effects than current single-target drugs. To explore the prospect in cancer therapy of a bivalent agent that combines two complementary chemo-active groups within a single molecular architecture, we have synthesized dual-acting histone deacetylase and topoisomerase II inhibitors. These dual-acting agents are derived from suberoylanilide hydroxamic acid (SAHA) and anthracycline daunorubicin, prototypical histone deacetylase (HDAC) and topoisomerase II (Topo II) inhibitors, respectively. We report herein that these agents present the signatures of inhibition of HDAC and Topo II in both cell-free and whole-cell assays. Moreover, these agents potently inhibit the proliferation of representative cancer cell lines.

Dual-acting histone deacetylase-topoisomerase I inhibitors.

Project description:Current chemotherapy regimens are comprised mostly of single-target drugs which are often plagued by toxic side effects and resistance development. A pharmacological strategy for circumventing these drawbacks could involve designing multivalent ligands that can modulate multiple targets while avoiding the toxicity of a single-targeted agent. Two attractive targets, histone deacetylase (HDAC) and topoisomerase I (Topo I), are cellular modulators that can broadly arrest cancer proliferation through a range of downstream effects. Both are clinically validated targets with multiple inhibitors in therapeutic use. We describe herein the design and synthesis of dual-acting histone deacetylase-topoisomerase I inhibitors. We also show that these dual-acting agents retain activity against HDAC and Topo I, and potently arrest cancer proliferation.

Discovery of Novel Multiacting Topoisomerase I/II and Histone Deacetylase Inhibitors.

Project description:Designing multitarget drugs remains a significant challenge in current antitumor drug discovery. Because of the synergistic effect between topoisomerase and HDAC inhibitors, the present study reported the first-in-class triple inhibitors of topoisomerase I/II and HDAC. On the basis of 3-amino-10-hydroxylevodiamine and SAHA, a series of hybrid molecules was successfully designed and synthesized. In particular, compound 8c was proven to be a potent inhibitor of topoisomerase I/II and HDAC with good antiproliferative and apoptotic activities. This proof-of-concept study also validated the effectiveness of discovering triple topoisomerase I/II and HDAC inhibitors as novel antitumor agents.

Targeting the CoREST complex with dual histone deacetylase and demethylase inhibitors.

Project description:Here we report corin, a synthetic hybrid agent derived from the class I HDAC inhibitor (entinostat) and an LSD1 inhibitor (tranylcypromine analog). Enzymologic analysis reveals that corin potently targets the CoREST complex and shows more sustained inhibition of CoREST complex HDAC activity compared with entinostat. Cell-based experiments demonstrate that corin exhibits a superior anti-proliferative profile against several melanoma lines and cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma lines compared to its parent monofunctional inhibitors but is less toxic to melanocytes and keratinocytes. CoREST knockdown, gene expression, and ChIP studies suggest that corin's favorable pharmacologic effects may rely on an intact CoREST complex. Corin was also effective in slowing tumor growth in a melanoma mouse xenograft model. These studies highlight the promise of a new class of two-pronged hybrid agents that may show preferential targeting of particular epigenetic regulatory complexes and offer unique therapeutic opportunities.

Evodiamine-inspired dual inhibitors of histone deacetylase 1 (HDAC1) and topoisomerase 2 (TOP2) with potent antitumor activity.

Project description:A great challenge in multi-targeting drug discovery is to identify drug-like lead compounds with therapeutic advantages over single target inhibitors and drug combinations. Inspired by our previous efforts in designing antitumor evodiamine derivatives, herein selective histone deacetylase 1 (HDAC1) and topoisomerase 2 (TOP2) dual inhibitors were successfully identified, which showed potent in vitro and in vivo antitumor potency. Particularly, compound 30a was orally active and possessed excellent in vivo antitumor activity in the HCT116 xenograft model (TGI = 75.2%, 150 mg/kg, p.o.) without significant toxicity, which was more potent than HDAC inhibitor vorinostat, TOP inhibitor evodiamine and their combination. Taken together, this study highlights the therapeutic advantages of evodiamine-based HDAC1/TOP2 dual inhibitors and provides valuable leads for the development of novel multi-targeting antitumor agents.

Antibacterial activity of novel dual bacterial DNA type II topoisomerase inhibitors.

Project description:In this study, a drug discovery programme that sought to identify novel dual bacterial topoisomerase II inhibitors (NBTIs) led to the selection of six optimized compounds. In enzymatic assays, the molecules showed equivalent dual-targeting activity against the DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV enzymes of Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli. Consistently, the compounds demonstrated potent activity in susceptibility tests against various Gram-positive and Gram-negative reference species, including ciprofloxacin-resistant strains. The activity of the compounds against clinical multidrug-resistant isolates of S. aureus, Clostridium difficile, Acinetobacter baumannii, Neisseria gonorrhoeae, E. coli and vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus spp. was also confirmed. Two compounds (1 and 2) were tested in time-kill and post-antibiotic effect (PAE) assays. Compound 1 was bactericidal against all tested reference strains and showed higher activity than ciprofloxacin, and compound 2 showed a prolonged PAE, even against the ciprofloxacin-resistant S. aureus BAA-1720 strain. Spontaneous development of resistance to both compounds was selected for in S. aureus at frequencies comparable to those obtained for quinolones and other NBTIs. S. aureus BAA-1720 mutants resistant to compounds 1 and 2 had single point mutations in gyrA or gyrB outside of the quinolone resistance-determining region (QRDR), confirming the distinct site of action of these NBTIs compared to that of quinolones. Overall, the very good antibacterial activity of the compounds and their optimizable in vitro safety and physicochemical profile may have relevant implications for the development of new broad-spectrum antibiotics.

Histone deacetylase inhibition redistributes topoisomerase II? from heterochromatin to euchromatin.

Project description:The genome is organized into large scale structures in the interphase nucleus. Pericentromeric heterochromatin represents one such compartment characterized by histones H3 and H4 tri-methylated at K9 and K20 respectively and with a correspondingly low level of histone acetylation. HP1 proteins are concentrated in pericentric heterochromatin and histone deacetylase inhibitors such as trichostatin A (TSA) promote hyperacetylation of heterochromatic nucleosomes and the dispersal of HP1 proteins. We observed that in mouse cells, which contain prominent heterochromatin, DNA topoisomerase II? (topoII?) is also concentrated in heterochromatic regions. Similarly, a detergent-resistant fraction of topoII? is associated with heterochromatin in human cell lines. Treatment with TSA displaced topoII? from the heterochromatin with similar kinetics to the displacement of HP1?. Topoisomerase II is the cellular target for a number of clinically important cytotoxic anti-cancer agents known collectively as topoisomerase poisons, and it has been previously reported that histone deacetylase inhibitors can sensitize cells to these drugs. While topoII? appears to be the major target for most topoisomerase poisons, histone deacetylase-mediated potentiation of these drugs is dependent on topoII?. We find that while prior treatment with TSA did not increase the quantity of etoposide-mediated topoII?-DNA covalent complexes, it did result in a shift in their distribution from a largely heterochromatin-associated to a pannuclear pattern. We suggest that this redistribution of topoII? converts this isoform of topoII to a effective relevant target for topoisomerase poisons.

Discovery of Novel Indoleamine 2,3-Dioxygenase 1 (IDO1) and Histone Deacetylase (HDAC) Dual Inhibitors.

Project description:In order to take advantage of both immunotherapeutic and epigenetic antitumor agents, the first generation of dual indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase 1 (IDO1) and histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors were designed. The highly active dual inhibitor 10 showed excellent and balanced activity against both IDO1 (IC50 = 69.0 nM) and HDAC1 (IC50 = 66.5 nM), whose dual targeting mechanisms were validated in cancer cells. Compound 10 had good pharmacokinetic profiles as an orally active antitumor agent and significantly reduced the l-kynurenine level in plasma. In particular, it showed excellent in vivo antitumor efficacy in the murine LLC tumor model with low toxicity. This proof-of-concept study provided a novel strategy for cancer treatment. Compound 10 represents a promising lead compound for the development of novel antitumor agents and can also be used as a valuable probe to clarify the relationships and mechanisms between cancer immunotherapy and epigenetics.
