Novel 2-Carbonylbenzo[b]thiophene 1,1-Dioxide Derivatives as Potent Inhibitors of STAT3 Signaling Pathway.

ABSTRACT: Signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) is considered to be an attractive therapeutic target for cancer therapy. In this study, a series of 2-carbonylbenzo[b]thiophene 1,1-dioxide derivatives (CBT) were designed to inhibit the STAT3 SH2 domain phosphorylation site Try 705. We demonstrated that incorporation of basic flexible groups through amide bond linkage to benzo[b]thiophene 1,1-dioxide (BTP) achieved compounds with higher antiproliferative potency than BTP itself. The most potent compound 6o, as indicated from luciferase reporter gene assay, inhibited the STAT3 pathway by decreasing the phosphorylation level of STAT3 Tyr705, while the phosphorylation level of other upstream tyrosine kinases in this pathway was not significantly inhibited. Compound 6o was also shown to trigger ROS generation and accumulation, thus consequently attributed partially to the observed cell apoptosis. This study provided important structural information for the development of inhibitors targeting the STAT3 pathway.

Project description:In previous work, we applied the rotation-limiting strategy and introduced a substituent at the 3-position of the pyrazolo [3,4-d]pyrimidin-4-amine as the affinity element to interact with the deeper hydrophobic pocket, discovered a series of novel quinazolinones as potent PI3K? inhibitors. Among them, the indole derivative 3 is one of the most selective PI3K? inhibitors and the 3,4-dimethoxyphenyl derivative 4 is a potent and selective dual PI3K?/? inhibitor. In this study, we replaced the carbonyl group in the quinazolinone core with a sulfonyl group, designed a series of novel 2H-benzo[e][1,2,4]thiadiazine 1,1-dioxide derivatives as PI3K? inhibitors. After the reduction of nitro group in N-(2,6-dimethylphenyl)-2-nitrobenzenesulfonamide 5 and N-(2,6-dimethylphenyl)-2-nitro-5-fluorobenzenesulfonamide 6, the resulting 2-aminobenzenesulfonamides were reacted with trimethyl orthoacetate to give the 3-methyl-2H-benzo[e][1,2,4]thiadiazine 1,1-dioxide derivatives. After bromination of the 3-methyl group, the nucleophilic substitution with the 3-iodo-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidin-4-amine provided the respective iodide derivatives, which were further reacted with a series of arylboronic acids via Suzuki coupling to furnish the 2H-benzo[e][1,2,4]thiadiazine 1,1-dioxide derivatives 15a-J and 16a-d. In agreement with the quinazolinone derivatives, the introduction of a 5-indolyl or 3,4-dimethoxyphenyl at the affinity pocket generated the most potent analogues 15a and 15b with the IC50 values of 217 to 266 nM, respectively. In comparison with the quinazolinone lead compounds 3 and 4, these 2H-benzo[e][1,2,4]thiadiazine 1,1-dioxide derivatives exhibited much decreased PI3K? inhibitory potency, but maintained the high selectivity over other PI3K isoforms. Unlike the quinazolinone lead compound 4 that was a dual PI3K?/? inhibitor, the benzthiadiazine 1,1-dioxide 15b with the same 3,4-dimethoxyphenyl moiety was more than 21-fold selective over PI3K?. Moreover, the introducing of a fluorine atom at the 7-position of the 2H-benzo[e][1,2,4]thiadiazine 1,1-dioxide core, in general, was not favored for the PI3K? inhibitory activity. In agreement with their high PI3K? selectivity, 15a and 15b significantly inhibited the SU-DHL-6 cell proliferation.
