Coumarins from Magydaris pastinacea as inhibitors of the tumour-associated carbonic anhydrases IX and XII: isolation, biological studies and in silico evaluation.

ABSTRACT: In an in vitro screening for human carbonic anhydrase (hCA) inhibiting agents from higher plants, the petroleum ether and ethyl acetate extracts of Magydaris pastinacea seeds selectively inhibited hCA IX and hCA XII isoforms. The phytochemical investigation of the extracts led to the isolation of ten linear furocoumarins (1-10), four simple coumarins (12-15) and a new angular dihydrofurocoumarin (11). The structures of the isolated compounds were elucidated based on 1 D and 2 D NMR, MS, and ECD data analysis. All isolated compounds were inactive towards the ubiquitous cytosolic isoform hCA I and II (K_i > 10,000 nM) while they were significantly active against the tumour-associated isoforms hCA IX and XII. Umbelliprenin was the most potent coumarin inhibiting hCA XII isoform with a K_i of 5.7 nM. The cytotoxicity of the most interesting compounds on HeLa cancer cells was also investigated.

Potent and Selective Carboxylic Acid Inhibitors of Tumor-Associated Carbonic Anhydrases IX and XII.

Project description:Selective inhibition of tumor-associated carbonic anhydrase (CA; EC 4.2.1.1) isoforms IX and XII is a crucial prerequisite to develop successful anticancer therapeutics. Herein, we confirmed the efficacy of the 3-nitrobenzoic acid substructure in the design of potent and selective carboxylic acid derivatives as CAs inhibitors. Compound 10 emerged as the most potent inhibitor of the tumor-associated hCA IX and XII (Ki = 16 and 82.1 nM, respectively) with a significant selectivity with respect to the wide spread hCA II. Other 3-nitrobenzoic acid derivatives showed a peculiar CA inhibition profile with a notable potency towards hCA IX.

Targeting Tumor Associated Carbonic Anhydrases IX and XII: Highly Isozyme Selective Coumarin and Psoralen Inhibitors.

Project description:A small library of psoralen carboxylic acids and their corresponding benzenesulfonamide derivatives were designed and synthesized to evaluate their activity and selectivity toward tumor associated human carbonic anhydrase (hCA) isoforms IX and XII. Both psoralen acids and sulfonamides exhibited potent inhibition of IX and XII isozymes in the nanomolar concentration range. However, psoralen acids resulted as the most selective in comparison with the corresponding benzenesulfonamide derivatives. Our data indicate that the psoralen scaffold is a promising starting point for the design of highly selective tumor associated hCA inhibitors.

Discovery of new 6-ureido/amidocoumarins as highly potent and selective inhibitors for the tumour-relevant carbonic anhydrases IX and XII.

Project description:A series of 6-ureido/amidocoumarins (5a-p and 7a-c) has been designed and synthesised to develop potent and isoform- selective carbonic anhydrase hCA XI and XII inhibitors. All coumarin derivatives were investigated for their CA inhibitory effect against hCA I, II, IX, and XII. Interestingly, target coumarins potently inhibited both tumour-related isoforms hCA IX (KIs: 14.7-82.4 nM) and hCA XII (KIs: 5.9-95.1 nM), whereas the cytosolic off-target hCA I and II isoforms have not inhibited by all tested coumarins up to 100 μM. These findings granted the target coumarins an excellent selectivity profile towards both hCA IX and hCA XII isoforms, supporting their development as promising anticancer candidates. Moreover, all target molecules were evaluated for their anticancer activities against HCT-116 and MCF-7 cancer cells. The 3,5-bis-trifluoromethylphenyl ureidocoumarin 5i, exerted the best anticancer activity. Overall, ureidocoumarins, particularly compound 5i, could serve as a promising prototype for the development of potent anticancer CAIs.

Novel benzofuran-based sulphonamides as selective carbonic anhydrases IX and XII inhibitors: synthesis and <i>in vitro</i> biological evaluation.

Project description:Pursuing on our efforts toward searching for efficient hCA IX and hCA XII inhibitors, herein we report the design and synthesis of new sets of benzofuran-based sulphonamides (4a,b, 5a,b, 9a-c, and 10a-d), featuring the zinc anchoring benzenesulfonamide moiety linked to a benzofuran tail via a hydrazine or hydrazide linker. All the target benzofurans were examined for their inhibitory activities toward isoforms hCA I, II, IX, and XII. The target tumour-associated hCA IX and XII isoforms were efficiently inhibited with KIs spanning in ranges 10.0-97.5 and 10.1-71.8 nM, respectively. Interestingly, arylsulfonehydrazones 9 displayed the best selectivity toward hCA IX and XII over hCA I (SIs: 39.4-250.3 and 26.0-149.9, respectively), and over hCA II (SIs: 19.6-57.1 and 13.0-34.2, respectively). Furthermore, the target benzofurans were assessed for their anti-proliferative activity, according to US-NCI protocol, toward a panel of sixty cancer cell lines. Only benzofurans 5b and 10b possessed selective and moderate growth inhibitory activity toward certain cancer cell lines.

2-Aminobenzoxazole-appended coumarins as potent and selective inhibitors of tumour-associated carbonic anhydrases.

Project description:We have carried out the design, synthesis, and evaluation of a small library of 2-aminobenzoxazole-appended coumarins as novel inhibitors of tumour-related CAs IX and XII. Substituents on C-3 and/or C-4 positions of the coumarin scaffold, and on the benzoxazole moiety, together with the length of the linker connecting both units were modified to obtain useful structure-activity relationships. CA inhibition studies revealed a good selectivity towards tumour-associated CAs IX and XII (Ki within the mid-nanomolar range in most of the cases) in comparison with CAs I, II, IV, and VII (Ki > 10 µM); CA IX was found to be slightly more sensitive towards structural changes. Docking calculations suggested that the coumarin scaffold might act as a prodrug, binding to the CAs in its hydrolysed form, which is in turn obtained due to the esterase activity of CAs. An increase of the tether length and of the substituents steric hindrance was found to be detrimental to in vitro antiproliferative activities. Incorporation of a chlorine atom on C-3 of the coumarin moiety achieved the strongest antiproliferative agent, with activities within the low micromolar range for the panel of tumour cell lines tested.

The Expression of Carbonic Anhydrases II, IX and XII in Brain Tumors.

Project description:Carbonic anhydrases (CAs) are zinc-containing metalloenzymes that participate in the regulation of pH homeostasis in addition to many other important physiological functions. Importantly, CAs have been associated with neoplastic processes and cancer. Brain tumors represent a heterogeneous group of diseases with a frequently dismal prognosis, and new treatment options are urgently needed. In this review article, we summarize the previously published literature about CAs in brain tumors, especially on CA II and hypoxia-inducible CA IX and CA XII. We review here their role in tumorigenesis and potential value in predicting prognosis of brain tumors, including astrocytomas, oligodendrogliomas, ependymomas, medulloblastomas, meningiomas, and craniopharyngiomas. We also introduce both already completed and ongoing studies focusing on CA inhibition as a potential anti-cancer strategy.

Discovery of 2,4-thiazolidinedione-tethered coumarins as novel selective inhibitors for carbonic anhydrase IX and XII isoforms.

Project description:Different 2,4-thiazolidinedione-tethered coumarins 5a-b, 10a-n and 11a-d were synthesised and evaluated for their inhibitory action against the cancer-associated hCAs IX and XII, as well as the physiologically dominant hCAs I and II to explore their selectivity. Un-substituted phenyl-bearing coumarins 10a, 10 h, and 2-thienyl/furyl-bearing coumarins 11a-c exhibited the best hCA IX (KIs between 0.48 and 0.93 µM) and hCA XII (KIs between 0.44 and 1.1 µM) inhibitory actions. Interestingly, none of the coumarins had any inhibitory effect on the off-target hCA I and II isoforms. The sub-micromolar compounds from the biochemical assay, coumarins 10a, 10 h and 11a-c, were assessed in an in vitro antiproliferative assay, and then the most potent antiproliferative agent 11a was tested to explore its impact on the cell cycle phases and apoptosis in MCF-7 breast cancer cells to provide more insights into the anticancer activity of these compounds.

Novel 8-Substituted Coumarins That Selectively Inhibit Human Carbonic Anhydrase IX and XII.

Project description:A novel series of 8-substituted coumarin-based compounds, characterized by the presence of alkylpiperazine and arylpiperazine chains, were synthesized and tested for their inhibitory activity against four human carbonic anhydrase (hCA) isoforms. All compounds displayed nanomolar potency against the cancer-related hCA IX and hCA XII; moreover, they were shown to be devoid of any inhibitory activity toward the cytosolic hCA I and hCA II up to 10 µM concentration in the assay system. Therefore, the synthesized coumarin ligands demonstrated to be potent and selective hCA IX/XII inhibitors, and were shown to be as potent as the reference inhibitor acetazolamide against hCA XII, with single-digit nanomolar Ki values. Molecular modeling studies provided a rationale for explaining the selectivity profile of these non-classic hCA inhibitors and their interactions with the enzymes, according to their specific mechanism of action, thus paving the way for future structure-based lead optimization studies.

Ureidobenzenesulfonamides as Selective Carbonic Anhydrase I, IX, and XII Inhibitors.

Project description:Sulfonamides remain an important class of drugs, especially because of their inhibitory effects on carbonic anhydrases. Herein, we have synthesized several sulfonamides and tested them for their inhibitory activity against carbonic anhydrases hCA I, hCA II, hCA IX, and hCA XII, respectively. Thereby, biphenyl- and benzylphenyl-substituted sulfonamides showed high selectivity against hCA IX and hCA XII; these enzymes are common targets in the treatment of hypoxic cancers, and noteworthy inhibitory activity was observed for several compounds toward hCA I that might be of interest for future applications to treat cerebral edema. Compound 3 (4-[3-(2-benzylphenyl)ureido]benzenesulfonamide) held an exceptionally low Ki value of 1.0 nM for hCA XII.

Coumarins effectively inhibit bacterial α-carbonic anhydrases.

Project description:Coumarins are known to act as prodrug inhibitors of mammalian α-carbonic anhydrases (CAs, EC 4.2.1.1) but they were not yet investigated for the inhibition of bacterial α-CAs. Here we demonstrate that such enzymes from the bacterial pathogens Neisseria gonorrhoeae (NgCAα) and Vibrio cholerae (VchCAα) are inhibited by a panel of simple coumarins incorporating hydroxyl, amino, ketone or carboxylic acid ester moieties in various positions of the ring system. The nature and the position of the substituents in the coumarin ring were the factors which strongly influenced inhibitory efficacy. NgCAα was inhibited with KIs in the range of 28.6-469.5 µM, whereas VchCAα with KIs in the range of 39.8-438.7 µM. The two human (h)CA isoforms included for comparison reason in the study, hCA I and II, were less prone to inhibition by these compounds, with KIs of 137-948.9 µM for hCA I and of 296.5-961.2 µM for hCA II, respectively. These findings are relevant for discovering coumarin bacterial CA inhibitors with selectivity for the bacterial over human isoform, with potential applications as novel antibacterial agents.
