Structure-Based Design and Synthesis of New Estrane-Pyridine Derivatives as Cytochrome P450 (CYP) 1B1 Inhibitors.

ABSTRACT: Inhibition of cytochrome P450 (CYP) 1B1 is a promising therapeutic strategy, as such an inhibitor could modulate the bioactivation of procarcinogens while reducing drug resistance. Based on docking studies, the synthesis of 12 estra-1,3,5(10)-triene derivatives containing a pyridin-3-/4-yl moiety at position C2, C3, or C4 was performed, and we measured their inhibitory activity on CYP1B1 using the ethoxyresorufin-O-deethylase (EROD) assay. The position of the nitrogen atom in the aromatic ring has little influence on their inhibition potency, but compounds with a pyridinyl at C2 of the steroid nucleus are more potent CYP1B1 inhibitors than those with a pyridinyl at C3 or C4. Estradiol derivatives (OH at C17?) are also 10-fold more potent inhibitors than estrone derivatives (carbonyl at C17). Thus, 2-(pyridin-3-yl)-estradiol (4a) is the best CYP1B1 inhibitor (IC50 = 0.011 ?M) from this series of compounds, and the best steroid inhibitor reported until now. It is also 7.5-fold more potent than the well-known nonsteroidal CYP1B1 inhibitor ?-naphthoflavone (IC50 = 0.083 ?M).

Project description:Supplemental oxygen, which is routinely administered to preterm infants with pulmonary insufficiency, contributes to bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) in these infants. Hyperoxia also contributes to the development of acute lung injury (ALI) and acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) in adults. The mechanisms of oxygen-mediated pulmonary toxicity are not completely understood. Recent studies have suggested an important role for cytochrome P450 (CYP)1A1/1A2 in the protection against hyperoxic lung injury. The role of CYP1B1 in oxygen-mediated pulmonary toxicity has not been studied. In this investigation, we tested the hypothesis that CYP1B1 plays a mechanistic role in oxygen toxicity in pulmonary cells in vitro. In human bronchial epithelial cell line BEAS-2B, hyperoxic treatment for 1-3 days led to decreased cell viability by about 50-80%. Hyperoxic cytotoxicity was accompanied by an increase in levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) by up to 110%, and an increase of TUNEL-positive cells by up to 4.8-fold. Western blot analysis showed hyperoxia to significantly down-regulate CYP1B1 protein level. Also, there was a decrease of CYP1B1 mRNA by up to 38% and Cyp1b1 promoter activity by up to 65%. On the other hand, CYP1B1 siRNA appeared to rescue the cell viability under hyperoxia stress, and overexpression of CYP1B1 significantly attenuated hyperoxic cytotoxicity after 48 h of incubation. In immortalized lung endothelial cells derived from Cyp1b1-null and wild-type mice, hyperoxia increased caspase 3/7 activities in a time-dependent manner, but endothelial cells lacking the Cyp1b1 gene showed significantly decreased caspase 3/7 activities after 48 and 72 h of incubation, implying that CYP1B1 might promote apoptosis in wild type lung endothelial cells under hyperoxic stress. In conclusion, our results support the hypothesis that CYP1B1 plays a mechanistic role in pulmonary oxygen toxicity, and CYP1B1-mediated apoptosis could be one of the mechanisms of oxygen toxicity. Thus, CYP1B1 could be a novel target for preventative and/or therapeutic interventions against BPD in infants and ALI/ARDS in adults.
