Synthesis and molecular modeling of novel tetrahydro-?-carboline derivatives with phosphodiesterase 5 inhibitory and anticancer properties.

ABSTRACT: New derivatives based upon the tetrahydro-?-carboline-hydantoin and tetrahydro-?-carboline-piperazinedione scaffolds were synthesized. All compounds were evaluated for their ability to inhibit PDE5 in vitro, and numerous compounds with IC(50) values in the low nanomolar range were identified including compounds derived from l-tryptophan. Compounds with high potency versus PDE5 were then evaluated for inhibitory activity against other PDEs to assess isozyme selectivity. Compound 5R,11aS-5-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-2-ethyl-5,6,11,11a-tetrahydro-1H-imidazo[1',5':1,6]pyrido[3,4-b]indole-1,3(2H)dione 14 showed a selectivity index of >200 for cGMP hydrolysis by PDE5 versus PDE11. Meanwhile, 6R,12aR-6-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)-2-ethyl-2,3,6,7,12,12a-hexahydropyrazino[1',2':1,6]pyrido[3,4-b]indole-1,4dione 45 demonstrated strong potency for inhibition of PDE11 with an IC(50) value of 11 nM, representing the most potent PDE11 inhibitor thus far reported. Docking experiments differentiated between active and inactive analogues and revealing the conformational, steric, and lipophilic necessities for potent PDE5 inhibition. Many derivatives, including potent PDE5 inhibitors, were able to inhibit the growth of the MDA-MB-231 breast tumor cell line with low micromolar potency.

Project description:A new series of benzofuran derivatives has been designed and synthesized. The structures of the synthesized compounds have been confirmed by the use of 1H NMR, 13C NMR, 2D 1H-1H NOESY NMR, and IR. Anticancer activity is evaluated against Hepatocellular carcinoma (HePG2), mammary gland breast cancer (MCF-7), Epitheliod carcinoma cervix cancer (Hela) and human prostate cancer (PC3). Compounds 8, 9, and 11 showed the highest activity towards the four cell lines with an IC50 range of 8.49-16.72 µM, 6.55-13.14 µM and 4-8.99 µM respectively in comparison to DOX (4.17-8.87 µM). Phosphatidylinositol-3-kinases (PI3K) inhibition was evaluated against the most active anticancer compounds 8, 9 and 11. Compounds 8, 9 and 11 showed good inhibitory activity against PI3Kα with IC50 values 4.1, 7.8, and 20.5 µM, respectively in comparison to 6.18 µM for the reference compound LY294002. In addition, activity of compounds 8 and 9 on cell cycle arrest and induction of apoptosis in different phases of MCF-7 cells were assessed and detected pre-G1 apoptosis and cell growth arrest at G2/M. Also, both extrinsic and intrinsic apoptosis in MCF-7 cells induced by compounds 8 and 9. Molecular docking, binding affinity surface mapping, and contact preference of the synthesized compounds 8, 9 and 11 against PI3K were estimated and studied computationally using molecular operating environment software (MOE) and showed good interaction with essential residues for inhibition Val851. In addition, antimicrobial activity was evaluated against gram positive isolates as Staphylococcus aureus and Bacillus cereus, gram negative isolate as Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and antifungal potential against Candida albicans. Compound 17 showed outstanding anti Gram-positive activity with MIC values 8 and 256 µg/mL in Staphylococcus aureus and Bacillus cereus respectively. Also, compounds 15, 17, 18 and 21 showed good anti Gram-negative activity with MIC value 512 µg/mL for all compounds. In addition, the state-of-art quorum sensing (QS) inhibiting effects were detected using Chromobacterium violaceum and compounds 7, 9, 10, 11, and 12 showed good QS inhibition (3, 3, 5, 2, and 7 mm).
