Synthesis and Evaluation of Mannitol-Based Inhibitors for Lipopolysaccharide Biosynthesis.

ABSTRACT: Antibiotic resistance is a serious threat against humankind and the need for new therapeutics is crucial. Without working antibiotics, diseases that we thought were extinct will come back. In this paper two new mannitol bisphosphate analogs, 1,6-dideoxy-1,6-diphosphoramidate mannitol and 1,6-dideoxy-1,6-dimethansulfonamide mannitol, have been synthesized and evaluated as potential inhibitors of the enzyme GmhB in the biosynthesis of lipopolysaccharides. 1,6-Dideoxy-1,6-diphosphoramidate mannitol showed promising result in computational docking experiments, but neither phosphate analog showed activity in the Kirby-Bauer antibiotic susceptibility test.

Synthesis and Pharmacokinetic Evaluation of Siderophore Biosynthesis Inhibitors for Mycobacterium tuberculosis.

Project description:MbtA catalyzes the first committed biosynthetic step of the mycobactins, which are important virulence factors associated with iron acquisition in Mycobacterium tuberculosis. MbtA is a validated therapeutic target for antitubercular drug development. 5'-O-[N-(Salicyl)sulfamoyl]adenosine (1) is a bisubstrate inhibitor of MbtA and exhibits exceptionally potent biochemical and antitubercular activity. However, 1 suffers from suboptimal drug disposition properties resulting in a short half-life (t(1/2)), low exposure (AUC), and low bioavailability (F). Four strategies were pursued to address these liabilities including the synthesis of prodrugs, increasing the pK(a) of the acyl-sulfonyl moiety, modulation of the lipophilicity, and strategic introduction of fluorine into 1. Complete pharmacokinetic (PK) analysis of all compounds was performed. The most successful modifications involved fluorination of the nucleoside that provided substantial improvements in t(1/2) and AUC. Increasing the pK(a) of the acyl-sulfonyl linker yielded incremental enhancements, while modulation of the lipophilicity and prodrug approaches led to substantially poorer PK parameters.

Mannitol Bis-phosphate Based Inhibitors of Fructose 1,6-Bisphosphate Aldolases.

Project description:Several 5-O-alkyl- and 5-C-alkyl-mannitol bis-phosphates were synthesized and comparatively assayed as inhibitors of fructose bis-phosphate aldolases (Fbas) from rabbit muscle (taken as surrogate model of the human enzyme) and from Trypanosoma brucei. A limited selectivity was found in several instances. Crystallographic studies confirm that the 5-O-methyl derivative binds competitively with substrate and the 5-O-methyl moiety penetrating deeper into a shallow hydrophobic pocket at the active site. This observation can lead to the preparation of selective competitive or irreversible inhibitors of the parasite Fba.

Structure-Based Design, Synthesis, and Biological Evaluation of Triazole-Based smHDAC8 Inhibitors.

Project description:Schistosomiasis is a neglected tropical disease caused by parasitic flatworms of the genus Schistosoma, which affects over 200 million people worldwide and leads to at least 300,000 deaths every year. In this study, initial screening revealed the triazole-based hydroxamate 2?b (N-hydroxy-1-phenyl-1H-1,2,3-triazole-4-carboxamide) exhibiting potent inhibitory activity toward the novel antiparasitic target Schistosoma mansoni histone deacetylase 8 (smHDAC8) and promising selectivity over the major human HDACs. Subsequent crystallographic studies of the 2?b/smHDAC8 complex revealed key interactions between the inhibitor and the enzyme's active site, thus explaining the unique selectivity profile of the inhibitor. Further chemical modifications of 2?b led to the discovery of 4-fluorophenoxy derivative 21 (1-[5-chloro-2-(4-fluorophenoxy)phenyl]-N-hydroxy-1H-1,2,3-triazole-4-carboxamide), a nanomolar smHDAC8 inhibitor (IC50 =0.5??M), exceeding the smHDAC8 inhibitory activity of 2?b and SAHA (vorinostat), while exhibiting an improved selectivity profile over the investigated human HDACs. Collectively, this study reveals specific interactions between smHDAC8 and the synthesized triazole-based inhibitors and demonstrates that these small molecules represent promising lead structures, which could be further developed in the search for novel drugs for the treatment of schistosomiasis.

Synthesis and evaluation of indazole based analog sensitive Akt inhibitors.

Project description:The kinase Akt is a key signaling node in regulating cellular growth and survival. It is implicated in cancer by mutation and its role in the downstream transmission of aberrant PI3K signaling. For these reasons, Akt has become an increasingly important target of drug development efforts and several inhibitors are now reaching clinical trials. Paradoxically it has been observed that active site kinase inhibitors of Akt lead to hyperphosphorylation of Akt itself. To investigate this phenomenon we here describe the application of a chemical genetics strategy that replaces native Akt with a mutant version containing an active site substitution that allows for the binding of an engineered inhibitor. This analog sensitive strategy allows for the selective inhibition of a single kinase. In order to create the inhibitor selective for the analog sensitive kinase, a diversity of synthetic approaches was required, finally resulting in the compound PrINZ, a 7-substituted version of the Abbott Labs Akt inhibitor A-443654.

Synthesis and evaluation of anthranilamide-based derivatives as FXa inhibitors.

Project description:Factor Xa (FXa) plays a significant role in the blood coagulation cascade and is a promising target for anticoagulation drugs. Three oral FXa inhibitors have been approved by FDA for treating thrombotic diseases. In this study, 43 novel compounds were synthesized anthranilamide-based FXa inhibitors aiming to ameliorate the toxicity of traditional FXa inhibitors in clinic. The data indicated that the compounds 6a, 6a-b, 6a-e, 6k, 6k-a and 6k-b showed remarkable FXa inhibitory activity and excellent selectivity over thrombin in vitro. Selected compounds also exhibited anticoagulant activities in vitro consequently and were potent novel anti-coagulators in further.

Synthesis and evaluation of indatraline-based inhibitors for trypanothione reductase.

Project description:The search for novel compounds of relevance to the treatment of diseases caused by trypanosomatid protozoan parasites continues. Screening of a large library of known bioactive compounds has led to several drug-like starting points for further optimisation. In this study, novel analogues of the monoamine uptake inhibitor indatraline were prepared and assessed both as inhibitors of trypanothione reductase (TryR) and against the parasite Trypanosoma brucei. Although it proved difficult to significantly increase the potency of the original compound as an inhibitor of TryR, some insight into the preferred substituent on the amine group and in the two aromatic rings of the parent indatraline was deduced. In addition, detailed mode of action studies indicated that two of the inhibitors exhibit a mixed mode of inhibition.

Synthesis and Evaluation of Noncovalent Naphthalene-Based KEAP1-NRF2 Inhibitors.

Project description:The oxidative stress response, gated by the protein-protein interaction of KEAP1 and NRF2, has garnered significant interest in the past decade. Misregulation in this pathway has been implicated in disease states such as multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, and diabetic chronic wounds. Many of the known activators of NRF2 are electrophilic in nature and may operate through several biological pathways rather than solely through the activation of the oxidative stress response. Recently, our lab has reported a nonelectrophilic, monoacidic, naphthalene-based NRF2 activator which exhibited good potency in vitro. Herein, we report a detailed structure-activity relationship of naphthalene-based NRF2 activators, an X-ray crystal structure of our monoacidic KEAP1 inhibitor, and identification of an underexplored area of the NRF2 binding pocket of KEAP1.

Novel Anthranilamide-Based FXa Inhibitors: Drug Design, Synthesis and Biological Evaluation.

Project description:Factor Xa (FXa) plays a significant role in the blood coagulation cascade and it has become a promising target for anticoagulation drugs. Three oral direct FXa inhibitors have been approved by the FDA for treating thrombotic diseases. By structure-activity relationship (SAR) analysis upon these FXa inhibitors, a series of novel anthranilamide-based FXa inhibitors were designed and synthesized. According to our study, compounds 1a, 1g and 1s displayed evident FXa inhibitory activity and excellent selectivity over thrombin in in vitro inhibition activities studies. Compounds 1g and 1s also exhibited pronounced anticoagulant activities in in vitro anticoagulant activity studies.

Synthesis and biological evaluation of nojirimycin- and pyrrolidine-based trehalase inhibitors.

Project description:A small set of nojirimycin- and pyrrolidine-based iminosugar derivatives has been synthesized and evaluated as potential inhibitors of porcine and insect trehalases. Compounds 12, 13 and 20 proved to be active against both insect and porcine trehalases with selectivity towards the insect glycosidase, while compounds 10, 14 and 16 behaved as inhibitors only of insect trehalase. Despite the fact that the activity was found in the micromolar range, these findings may help in elucidating the structural features of this class of enzymes of different origin, which are still scarcely characterised.

Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of JAHAs: Ferrocene-Based Histone Deacetylase Inhibitors.

Project description:N(1)-Hydroxy-N(8)-ferrocenyloctanediamide, JAHA (7), an organometallic analogue of SAHA containing a ferrocenyl group as a phenyl bioisostere, displays nanomolar inhibition of class I HDACs, excellent selectivity over class IIa HDACs, and anticancer action in intact cells (IC(50) = 2.4 μM, MCF7 cell line). Molecular docking studies of 7 in HDAC8 (a,b) suggested that the ferrocenyl moiety in 7 can overlap with the aryl cap of SAHA and should display similar HDAC inhibition, which was borne out in an in vitro assay (IC(50) values against HDAC8 (μM, SD in parentheses): SAHA, 1.41 (0.15); 7, 1.36 (0.16). Thereafter, a small library of related JAHA analogues has been synthesized, and preliminary SAR studies are presented. IC(50) values as low as 90 pM toward HDAC6 (class IIb) have been determined, highlighting the excellent potential of JAHAs as bioinorganic probes.
