New insights into structure-activity relationship of ipomoeassin F from its bioisosteric 5-oxa/aza analogues.

ABSTRACT: Ipomoeassin F, a plant-derived macrolide, exhibited single-digit nanomolar growth inhibition activity against many cancer cell lines. In this report, a series of 5-oxa/aza analogues was prepared and screened for cytotoxicity. Replacement of 5-CH2 with O/NH simplified the synthesis and led to only a small activity loss. N-methylation almost completely restored the potency. Further studies with additional 5-oxa analogues suggested, for the first time, that size and flexibility of the ring also significantly influence the bioactivity of ipomoeassin F.

Design, Synthesis, and Structure-Activity Relationship Studies of (4-Alkoxyphenyl)glycinamides and Bioisosteric 1,3,4-Oxadiazoles as GPR88 Agonists.

Project description:Increasing evidence implicates the orphan G protein-coupled receptor 88 (GPR88) in a number of striatal-associated disorders. In this study, we report the design and synthesis of a series of novel (4-alkoxyphenyl)glycinamides (e.g., 31) and the corresponding 1,3,4-oxadiazole bioisosteres derived from the 2-AMPP scaffold (1) as GPR88 agonists. The 5-amino-1,3,4-oxadiazole derivatives (84, 88-90) had significantly improved potency and lower lipophilicity compared to 2-AMPP. Compound 84 had an EC50 of 59 nM in the GPR88 overexpressing cell-based cAMP assay. In addition, 84 had an EC50 of 942 nM in the [35S]GTPγS binding assay using mouse striatal membranes but was inactive in membranes from GPR88 knockout mice, even at a concentration of 100 μM. In vivo pharmacokinetic testing of 90 in rats revealed that the 5-amino-1,3,4-oxadiazole analogues may have limited brain permeability. Taken together, these results provide the basis for further optimization to develop a suitable agonist to probe GPR88 functions in the brain.

Structure and Antiparasitic Activity Relationship of Alkylphosphocholine Analogues against Leishmania donovani.

Project description:Miltefosine (Milt) is the only oral treatment for visceral leishmaniasis (VL) but its use is associated with adverse effects, e.g., teratogenicity, vomiting, diarrhoea. Understanding how its chemical structure induces cytotoxicity, whilst not compromising its anti-parasitic efficacy, could identify more effective compounds. Therefore, we systemically modified the compound's head, tail and linker tested the in vitro activity of three alkylphosphocholines (APC) series against Leishmania donovani strains with different sensitivities to antimony. The analogue, APC12, with an alkyl carbon chain of 12 atoms, was also tested for anti-leishmanial in vivo activity in a murine VL model. All APCs produced had anti-leishmanial activity in the micromolar range (IC50 and IC90, 0.46- > 82.21 µM and 4.14-739.89 µM; 0.01- > 8.02 µM and 0.09-72.18 µM, respectively, against promastigotes and intracellular amastigotes). The analogue, APC12 was the most active, was 4-10 fold more effective than the parent Milt molecule (APC16), irrespective of the strain's sensitivity to antimony. Intravenous administration of 40 mg/kg APC12 to L. donovani infected BALB/c mice reduced liver and spleen parasite burdens by 60 ± 11% and 60 ± 19%, respectively, while oral administration reduced parasite load in the bone marrow by 54 ± 34%. These studies confirm that it is possible to alter the Milt structure and produce more active anti-leishmanial compounds.

Resveratrol Analogues as Selective Estrogen Signaling Pathway Modulators: Structure-Activity Relationship.

Project description:Resveratrol is a plant-derived phytoalexin found in grapes, red wine and many other plants used in Asian folk medicine. It is extensively studied for pleiotropic biological activity. The most crucial are anticancer and chemopreventive properties. Resveratrol has also been reported to be an antioxidant and phytoestrogen. The phytoestrogenic activity of resveratrol was assayed in different in vitro and in vivo models. Although these works brought some, on the first look, conflicting results, it is commonly accepted that resveratrol interacts with estrogen receptors and functions as a mixed agonist/antagonist. It is widely accepted that the hydroxyl groups are crucial for resveratrol's cytotoxic and antioxidative activity and are responsible for binding estrogen receptors. In this work, we assayed 11 resveratrol analogues, seven barring methoxy groups and six hydroxylated analogues in different combinations at positions 3, 4, 5 and 3',4',5'. For this purpose, recombined estrogen receptors and estrogen-dependent MCF-7 and Ishikawa cells were used. Our study was supported by in silico docking studies. We have shown that, resveratrol and 3,4,4'5'-tetrahydroxystilbene, 3,3',4,5,5'-pentahydroxystilbene and 3,3',4,4',5,5'-hexahydroxystilbene may act as selective estrogen receptor modulators.

Structure-Activity Relationship of Flavin Analogues That Target the Flavin Mononucleotide Riboswitch.

Project description:The flavin mononucleotide (FMN) riboswitch is an emerging target for the development of novel RNA-targeting antibiotics. We previously discovered an FMN derivative, 5FDQD, that protects mice against diarrhea-causing Clostridium difficile bacteria. Here, we present the structure-based drug design strategy that led to the discovery of this fluoro-phenyl derivative with antibacterial properties. This approach involved the following stages: (1) structural analysis of all available free and bound FMN riboswitch structures; (2) design, synthesis, and purification of derivatives; (3) in vitro testing for productive binding using two chemical probing methods; (4) in vitro transcription termination assays; and (5) resolution of the crystal structures of the FMN riboswitch in complex with the most mature candidates. In the process, we delineated principles for productive binding to this riboswitch, thereby demonstrating the effectiveness of a coordinated structure-guided approach to designing drugs against RNA.

Synthesis and Structure-Activity Relationship Study of 5a-Carbasugar Analogues of SL0101.

Project description:The Ser/Thr protein kinase, RSK, is associated with oncogenesis, and therefore, there are ongoing efforts to develop RSK inhibitors that are suitable for use in vivo. SL0101 is a natural product that demonstrates selectivity for RSK inhibition. However, SL0101 has a short biological half-life in vivo. To address this issue we designed a set of eight cyclitol analogues, which should be resistant to acid catalyzed anomeric bond hydrolysis. The analogues were synthesized and evaluated for their ability to selectively inhibit RSK in vitro and in cell-based assays. All the analogues were prepared using a stereodivergent palladium-catalyzed glycosylation/cyclitolization for installing the aglycon. The l-cyclitol analogues were found to inhibit RSK2 in in vitro kinase activity with a similar efficacy to that of SL0101, however, the analogues were not specific for RSK in cell-based assays. In contrast, the d-isomers showed no RSK inhibitory activity in in vitro kinase assay.

Antimicrobial, Anticancer and Multidrug-Resistant Reversing Activity of Novel Oxygen-, Sulfur- and Selenoflavones and Bioisosteric Analogues.

Project description:Multidrug resistance of cancer cells to cytotoxic drugs still remains a major obstacle to the success of chemotherapy in cancer treatment. The development of new drug candidates which may serve as P-glycoprotein (P-gp) efflux pump inhibitors is a promising strategy. Selenium analogues of natural products, such as flavonoids, offer an interesting motif from the perspective of drug design. Herein, we report the biological evaluation of novel hybrid compounds, bearing both the flavone core (compounds 1-3) or a bioisosteric analogue core (compounds 4-6) and the triflyl functional group against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, yeasts, nematodes, and human colonic adenocarcinoma cells. Results show that these flavones and analogues of flavones inhibited the activity of multidrug resistance (MDR) efflux pump ABCB1 (P-glycoprotein, P-gp). Moreover, the results of the rhodamine 123 accumulation assay demonstrated a dose-dependent inhibition of the abovementioned efflux pump. Three compounds (4, 5, and 6) exhibited potent inhibitory activity, much stronger than the positive control, verapamil. Thus, these chalcogen bioisosteric analogues of flavones become an interesting class of compounds which could be considered as P-gp efflux pump inhibitors in the therapy of MDR cancer. Moreover, all the compounds served as promising adjuvants in the cancer treatment, since they exhibited the P-gp efflux pump modulating activity.

Chemical Synthesis and Structure-Activity Relationship Study Yield Desotamide a Analogues with Improved Antibacterial Activity.

Project description:Desotamides A, a cyclohexapeptide produced by the deep-sea-derived Streptomyces scopuliridis SCSIO ZJ46, displays notable antibacterial activities against strains of Streptococcus pnuemoniae, Staphylococcus aureus, and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus epidermidis (MRSE). In this study, to further explore its antibacterial potential and reveal the antibacterial structure-activity relationship of desotamides, 13 cyclopeptides including 10 new synthetic desotamide A analogues and wollamides B/B1/B2 were synthesized and evaluated for their antibacterial activities against a panel of Gram-positive and -negative pathogens. The bioactivity data reveal that residues at position II and VI greatly impact antibacterial activity. The most potent antibacterial analogues are desotamide A4 (13) and A6 (15) where l-allo-Ile at position II was substituted with l-Ile and Gly at position VI was simultaneously replaced by d-Lys or d-Arg; desotamides A4 (13) and A6 (15) showed a 2-4-fold increase of antibacterial activities against a series of Gram-positive pathogens including the prevalent clinical drug-resistant pathogen methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) with MIC values of 8-32 μg/mL compared to the original desotamide A. The enhanced antibacterial activity, broad antibacterial spectrum of desotamides A4 and A6 highlighted their potential as new antibiotic leads for further development.
