Studies toward the total synthesis of Itralamide B and biological evaluation of its structural analogs.

ABSTRACT: Itralamides A and B were isolated from the lipophilic extract of Lyngbya majuscula collected from the eastern Caribbean. Itralamide B (1) showed cytotoxic activity towards human embryonic kidney cells (HEK293, IC50 = 6 ?M). Preliminary studies disapproved the proposed stereochemistry of itralamide. In this paper, we will provide a full account of the total synthesis of four stereoisomers of itralamide B and the results derived from biological tests of these structural congeners.

Amphidinolide B: total synthesis, structural investigation, and biological evaluation.

Project description:The total syntheses of amphidinolide B1 and the proposed structure of amphidinolide B2 have been accomplished. Key aspects of this work include the development of a practical, non-transition-metal-mediated method for the construction of the C13-C15 diene, the identification of α-chelation and dipole minimization models for diastereoselective methyl ketone aldol reactions, the discovery of a spontaneous Horner-Wadsworth-Emmons macrocyclization strategy, and the development of a novel late stage method for construction of an allylic epoxide moiety. The originally proposed structure for amphidinolide B2 and diastereomers thereof display potent antitumor activities with IC50 values ranging from 3.3 to 94.5 nM against human solid and blood tumor cells. Of the different stereoisomers, the proposed structure of amphidinolide B2 is over 12-fold more potent than the C8,9-epimer and C18-epimer in human DU145 prostate cancer cells. These data suggest that the epoxide stereochemistry is a significant factor for anticancer activity.

Phthalimide analogs as probable 15-lipoxygenase-1 inhibitors: synthesis, biological evaluation and docking studies.

Project description:Recent studies have been explained the role of lipoxygenases (LOX) in the origin of cancer. Among the lipoxygenases, the 5-LOX, 12-LOX and 15-LOX are more important in the cause of neoplastic disorders. In the present investigation, a new series of anticancer agents with 1,3,4-thiadiazole and phthalimide substructures were synthesized and their in vitro cytotoxicity was evaluated by MTT assay. Moreover, enzyme inhibitory potency was also assessed by enzymatic protocol towards 15-LOX-1. Molecular docking was performed to explore in silico binding mode of the target compounds.Tested compounds showed a better cytotoxic activity against HT29 cell line (colorectal cancer) in comparison with other cell lines (PC3: prostate carcinoma; SKNMC: neuroblastoma). Unfortunately, all of the tested derivatives rendered lower inhibitory potency than quercetin towards 15-LOX-1. Four hydrogen bonds were detected in docking studies for compound 4d as the most potent derivative in enzymatic assay.The biological results of reported compounds in this research were not so satisfactory. But, further structural modifications are necessary to improve the bioactivity of these derivatives.

Synthesis and biological evaluation of neopeltolide and analogs.

Project description:The synthesis of neopeltolide analogues that contain variations in the oxazole-containing side chain and in the macrolide core are reported along with the GI(50) values for these compounds against MCF-7, HCT-116, and p53 knockout HCT-116 cell lines. Although biological activity is sensitive to changes in the macrocycle and the side chain, several analogues displayed GI(50) values of <25 nM. Neopeltolide and several of the more potent analogues were significantly less potent against p53 knockout cells, suggesting that p53 plays an auxiliary role in the activity of these compounds.

Synthesis, biological evaluation, and modeling studies of 1,3-disubstituted cyclobutane-containing analogs of combretastatin A4.

Project description:With the aim of circumventing the adverse cis/trans-isomerization of combretastatin A4 (CA4), a naturally occurring tumor-vascular disrupting agent, we designed novel CA4 analogs bearing 1,3-cyclobutane moiety instead of the cis-stilbene unit of the parent compound. The corresponding cis and trans cyclobutane-containing derivatives were prepared as pure diastereomers. The structure of the target compounds was confirmed by X-ray diffraction study. The title compounds were evaluated for their cytotoxic properties in human cancer cell lines HepG2 (hepatocarcinoma) and SK-N-DZ (neuroblastoma), and the overall activity was found in micromolar range. Molecular docking studies and molecular dynamics simulation within the colchicine binding site of tubulin were in good agreement with the obtained cytotoxicity data.

Total Synthesis (+)-7-Bromotrypargine and Unnatural Analogs: Biological Evaluation Uncovers Activity at CNS Targets of Therapeutic Relevance.

Project description:The first total synthesis of (+)-7-bromotrypargine, a β-carboline alkaloid from Ancornia sp. is reported. The synthesis proceeds in 9 steps, 8 steps longest linear sequence, in 36.9% overall yield. Biological characterization found that (+)-7-bromotrypargine is an H(3) antagonist, and a selective inhibitor of DAT and NET, without inhibiting SERT. Moreover, unlike electron rich congeners, (+)-7-bromotrypargine is not cytotoxic, and thus represents an attractive starting point for chemical optimization; therefore, we piloted a number of chemistries for the synthesis of unnatural analogs.

Studies toward the total synthesis of pluraflavin A.

Project description:A synthetic strategy towards the potent cytostatic agent pluraflavin A has been developed. Formation of the enantioenriched anthrapyran core bearing a halogen atom enabled the introduction of the ??C-aryl glycoside by Stille cross-coupling and subsequent hydrogenation of the aryl glycal. Chemo- and stereoselective O-glycosylations of ??oliose and ??3-epi vancosamine residues afforded a fully glycosylated aromatic core. Attempts to install the dimethylamino group of the C-disaccharide suggest that introduction of an azide group by displacement and subsequent reduction may pave the way to the total synthesis of pluraflavin A.

Synthesis and biological evaluation of semi-synthetic albocycline analogs.

Project description:Albocycline (ALB) is a unique macrolactone natural product with potent, narrow-spectrum activity against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), vancomycin-intermediate (VISA), and vancomycin-resistant S. aureus (VRSA) strains (MIC = 0.5-1.0 μg/mL). Described herein is the synthesis and evaluation of a novel series analogs derived from albocycline by functionalization at three specific sites: the C2-C3 enone, the tertiary carbinol at C4, and the allylic C16 methyl group. Exploration of the structure-activity relationships (SAR) by means of minimum inhibitory concentration assays (MICs) revealed that C4 ester analog 6 was twice as potent as ALB, which represents a class of lead compound that can be further studied to address multi-drug resistant pathogens.

Structure-Based Bioisosterism Design, Synthesis, Biological Evaluation and In Silico Studies of Benzamide Analogs as Potential Anthelmintics.

Project description:A recent screen of 67,012 compounds identified a new family of compounds with excellent nematicidal activity: the ortho-substituted benzamide families Wact-11 and Wact-12. These compounds are active against Caenorhabditis elegans and parasitic nematodes by selectively inhibiting nematode complex II, and they display low toxicity in mammalian cells and vertebrate organisms. Although a big number of benzamides were tested against C. elegans in high-throughput screens, bioisosteres of the amide moiety were not represented in the chemical space examined. We thus identified an opportunity for the design, synthesis and evaluation of novel compounds, using bioisosteric replacements of the amide group present in benzamides. The compound Wact-11 was used as the reference scaffold to prepare a set of bioisosteres to be evaluated against C. elegans. Eight types of amide replacement were selected, including ester, thioamide, selenoamide, sulfonamide, alkyl thio- and oxo-amides, urea and triazole. The results allowed us to perform a structure-activity relationship, highlighting the relevance of the amide group for nematicide activity. Experimental evidence was complemented with in silico structural studies over a C. elegans complex II model as a molecular target of benzamides. Importantly, compound Wact-11 was active against the flatworm Echinococcus granulosus, suggesting a previously unreported pan-anthelmintic potential for benzamides.

Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of Subglutinol Analogs for Immunomodulatory Agents.

Project description:Autoimmune diseases are chronic inflammatory diseases associated with high morbidity and mortality. Treatment options for autoimmune diseases have increased over the past several decades, but they are, in general, limited in their clinical efficacy due to high toxicity and lack of selectivity. Thus, efforts must be made to identify new immunomodulatory agents that are effective through a novel mechanism to circumvent existing side effects. To define the structural requirements of subglutinols for immunomodulatory activity and to provide guiding principles on future therapeutic development, we prepared and evaluated several subglutinol analogs for their immunomodulatory activities. Our efforts identified a subglutinol analog with reduced structural complexity as a potential lead compound for future autoimmune drug development. Our study will provide an important framework for the design of potent and nontoxic immunomodulating agents derived from subglutinols.
