Design, Synthesis, and Biological Evaluation of Quinazolin-4-one-Based Hydroxamic Acids as Dual PI3K/HDAC Inhibitors.

ABSTRACT: A series of quinazolin-4-one based hydroxamic acids was rationally designed and synthesized as novel dual PI3K/HDAC inhibitors by incorporating an HDAC pharmacophore into a PI3K inhibitor (Idelalisib) via an optimized linker. Several of these dual inhibitors were highly potent (IC₅₀ < 10 nM) and selective against PI3Kγ, δ and HDAC6 enzymes and exhibited good antiproliferative activity against multiple cancer cell lines. The lead compound 48c, induced necrosis in several mutant and FLT3-resistant AML cell lines and primary blasts from AML patients, while showing no cytotoxicity against normal PBMCs, NIH3T3, and HEK293 cells. Target engagement of PI3Kδ and HDAC6 by 48c was demonstrated in MV411 cells using the cellular thermal shift assay (CETSA). Compound 48c showed good pharmacokinetics properties in mice via intraperitoneal (ip) administration and provides a means to examine the biological effects of inhibiting these two important enzymes with a single molecule, either in vitro or in vivo.

Hydroxamic Acids Immobilized on Resins (HAIRs): Synthesis of Dual-Targeting HDAC Inhibitors and HDAC Degraders (PROTACs).

Project description:Inhibition of more than one cancer-related pathway by multi-target agents is an emerging approach in modern anticancer drug discovery. Here, based on the well-established synergy between histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACi) and alkylating agents, we present the discovery of a series of alkylating HDACi using a pharmacophore-linking strategy. For the parallel synthesis of the target compounds, we developed an efficient solid-phase-supported protocol using hydroxamic acids immobilized on resins (HAIRs) as stable and versatile building blocks for the preparation of functionalized HDACi. The most promising compound, 3?n, was significantly more active in apoptosis induction, activation of caspase 3/7, and formation of DNA damage (?-H2AX) than the sum of the activities of either active principle alone. Furthermore, to demonstrate the utility of our preloaded resins, the HAIR approach was successfully extended to the synthesis of a proof-of-concept proteolysis-targeting chimera (PROTAC), which efficiently degrades histone deacetylases.

Molecular design, synthesis and <i>in vitro</i> biological evaluation of thienopyrimidine-hydroxamic acids as chimeric kinase HDAC inhibitors: a challenging approach to combat cancer.

Project description:A series of thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidine-based hydroxamic acid hybrids was designed and synthesised as multitarget anti-cancer agents, through incorporating the pharmacophore of EGFR, VEGFR2 into the inhibitory functionality of HDAC6. Three compounds (12c, 15b and 20b) were promising hits, whereas (12c) exhibited potent VEGFR2 inhibition (IC50=185 nM), potent EGFR inhibition (IC50=1.14 µM), and mild HDAC6 inhibition (23% inhibition). Moreover, compound (15c) was the most potent dual inhibitor among all the synthesised compounds, as it exhibited potent EGFR and VEGFR2 inhibition (IC50=19 nM) and (IC50=5.58 µM), respectively. While compounds (20d) and (7c) displayed nanomolar selective kinase inhibition with EGFR IC50= 68 nM and VEGFR2 IC50= 191 nM, respectively. All of the synthesised compounds were screened in vitro for their cytotoxic effect on 60 human NCI tumour cell lines. Additionally, molecular docking studies and ADMET studies were carried out to gain further insight into their binding mode and predict the pharmacokinetic properties of all the synthesised inhibitors.

Design, Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of Novel Osimertinib-Based HDAC and EGFR Dual Inhibitors.

Project description:Herein a novel series of histone deacetylases (HDACs) and epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) dual inhibitors were designed and synthesized based on the structure of the approved EGFR inhibitor osimertinib (AZD9291). Among them, four compounds 5D, 5E, 9D and 9E exhibited more potent total HDAC inhibition than the approved HDAC inhibitor SAHA. However, these compounds only showed moderate to low inhibitory potency towards EGFR with compounds 5E and 9E possessing IC50 values against EGFRWT and EGFRT790M in the micromolar range. 3-[4,5-dimethyl-2-thiazolyl]-2,5-diphenyl-2H-tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay revealed the potent antiproliferative activities of compounds 5D, 5E, 9D and 9E, among which 9E was even more potent against HeLa, MDA-MB-231, MDA-MB-468, HT-29 and KG-1 cell lines than SAHA and AZD9291. Further selectivity profile of 9E showed that this compound was not active against other 13 cancer-related kinases and two epigenetic targets lysine specific demethylase 1 (LSD1) and bromodomain-containing protein 4 (BRD4). These results support further structural modification of 9E to improve its EGFR inhibitory activity, which will lead to more potent and balanced HDAC and EGFR dual inhibitors as anticancer agents.

Biochemical, biological and structural properties of romidepsin (FK228) and its analogs as novel HDAC/PI3K dual inhibitors.

Project description:Romidepsin (FK228, depsipeptide) is a potent histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor that has FDA approval for the treatment of cutaneous and peripheral T-cell lymphomas. We have previously reported that FK228 and its analogs have an additional activity as phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) inhibitors, and are defined as HDAC/PI3K dual inhibitors. Because a combination of an HDAC inhibitor and a PI3K inhibitor induces apoptosis in human cancer cells in a synergistic manner, development of an HDAC/PI3K dual inhibitor will provide an attractive novel drug for cancer therapy. Using structure-based optimization of the analogs, FK-A11 was identified as the most potent analog. FK-A11 inhibited phosphorylation of AKT and accelerated histone acetylation at lower concentrations, resulting in stronger cytotoxic effects than FK228 and the other analogs in human cancer cells. In this study, we have characterized the biochemical, biological and structural properties of FK228 analogs as PI3K inhibitors. First, FK-A11 is an ATP competitive PI3K inhibitor. Second, FK-A11 is a pan-p110 isoform inhibitor. Third, FK-A11 selectively inhibits PI3K among 22 common cellular kinases. Fourth, conformational changes of FK228 analogs by reduction of an internal disulfide bond have no effect on PI3K inhibitory activity, unlike HDAC inhibitory activity. Finally, molecular modeling of PI3K-FK228 analogs and analyses of the binding affinities identified the structure that defines potency for PI3K inhibitory activity. These results prove our concept that a series of FK228 analogs are HDAC/PI3K dual inhibitors. These findings should help in the development of FK228 analogs as novel HDAC/PI3K dual inhibitors.

Improved Selective Class I HDAC and Novel Selective HDAC3 Inhibitors: Beyond Hydroxamic Acids and Benzamides.

Project description:The application of class I HDAC inhibitors as cancer therapies is well established, but more recently their development for nononcological indications has increased. We report here on the generation of improved class I selective human HDAC inhibitors based on an ethylketone zinc binding group (ZBG) in place of the hydroxamic acid that features the majority of HDAC inhibitors. We also describe a novel set of HDAC3 isoform selective inhibitors that show stronger potency and selectivity than the most commonly used HDAC3 selective tool compound RGFP966. These compounds are again based on an alternative ZBG with respect to the ortho-anilide that is featured in HDAC3 selective compounds reported to date.

Design, Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of Novel Phenylsulfonylurea Derivatives as PI3K/mTOR Dual Inhibitors.

Project description:Five series of novel phenylsulfonylurea derivatives, 19a?d, 20a?d, 21a?d, 22a?d and 23a?d, bearing 4-phenylaminoquinoline scaffold were designed, synthesized and their IC50 values against four cancer cell lines (HepG-2, A549, PC-3 and MCF-7) were evaluated. Most compounds showed moderate cytotoxicity activity against the cancer cell lines. Structure?activity relationships (SARs) and pharmacological results indicated that introduction of 4-aminoquinoline scaffold and phenylsulfonylurea scaffold were beneficial for anti-tumor activity. Moreover, para-methoxyl substitution of 4-anilino moiety and para-halogen substitution of phenylsulfonylurea have different impacts on different series of compounds. Furthermore, the micromolecule group substitution in the 6-position of the quinoline ring have a slight impact on the cellular activity of the target compounds.

Synthesis and HDAC inhibitory activity of pyrimidine-based hydroxamic acids.

Project description:Histone deacetylases (HDACs) play an essential role in the transcriptional regulation of cells through the deacetylation of nuclear histone and non-histone proteins and are promising therapeutic targets for the treatment of various diseases. Here, the synthesis of new compounds in which a hydroxamic acid residue is attached to differently substituted pyrimidine rings via a methylene group bridge of varying length as potential HDAC inhibitors is described. The target compounds were obtained by alkylation of 2-(alkylthio)pyrimidin-4(3H)-ones with ethyl 2-bromoethanoate, ethyl 4-bromobutanoate, or methyl 6-bromohexanoate followed by aminolysis of the obtained esters with hydroxylamine. Oxidation of the 2-methylthio group to the methylsulfonyl group and following treatment with amines resulted in the formation of the corresponding 2-amino-substituted derivatives, the ester group of which reacted with hydroxylamine to give the corresponding hydroxamic acids. The synthesized hydroxamic acids were tested as inhibitors of the HDAC4 and HDAC8 isoforms. Among the synthesized pyrimidine-based hydroxamic acids N-hydroxy-6-[6-methyl-2-(methylthio)-5-propylpyrimidin-4-yloxy]hexanamide was found to be the most potent inhibitor of both the HDAC4 and HDAC8 isoforms, with an IC50 of 16.6 µM and 1.2 µM, respectively.

Design, Synthesis, and Biological Evaluation of Sulfonamide Methoxypyridine Derivatives as Novel PI3K/mTOR Dual Inhibitors.

Project description:Phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) plays an important role in cell proliferation, survival, migration, and metabolism, and has become an effective target for cancer treatment. Meanwhile, inhibiting both PI3K and mammalian rapamycin receptor (mTOR) can simultaneously improve the efficiency of anti-tumor therapy. Herein, a series of 36 sulfonamide methoxypyridine derivatives with three different aromatic skeletons were synthesized as novel potent PI3K/mTOR dual inhibitors based on a scaffold hopping strategy. Enzyme inhibition assay and cell anti-proliferation assay were employed to assess all derivatives. Then, the effects of the most potent inhibitor on cell cycle and apoptosis were performed. Furthermore, the phosphorylation level of AKT, an important downstream effector of PI3K, was evaluated by Western blot assay. Finally, molecular docking was used to confirm the binding mode with PI3Kα and mTOR. Among them, 22c with the quinoline core showed strong PI3Kα kinase inhibitory activity (IC50 = 0.22 nM) and mTOR kinase inhibitory activity (IC50 = 23 nM). 22c also showed a strong proliferation inhibitory activity, both in MCF-7 cells (IC50 = 130 nM) and HCT-116 cells (IC50 = 20 nM). 22c could effectively cause cell cycle arrest in G0/G1 phase and induce apoptosis of HCT-116 cells. Western blot assay showed that 22c could decrease the phosphorylation of AKT at a low concentration. The results of the modeling docking study also confirmed the binding mode of 22c with PI3Kα and mTOR. Hence, 22c is a promising PI3K/mTOR dual inhibitor, which is worthy of further research in the area.

Design, Synthesis, and Biological Evaluation of Novel Quinazolin-4(3H)-One-Based Histone Deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) Inhibitors for Anticancer Activity.

Project description:A series of novel quinazoline-4-(3H)-one derivatives were designed and synthesized as histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) inhibitors based on novel quinazoline-4-(3H)-one as the cap group and benzhydroxamic acid as the linker and metal-binding group. A total of 19 novel quinazoline-4-(3H)-one analogues (5a-5s) were obtained. The structures of the target compounds were characterized using 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, LC-MS, and elemental analyses. Characterized compounds were screened for inhibition against HDAC8 class I, HDAC4 class IIa, and HDAC6 class IIb. Among the compounds tested, 5b proved to be the most potent and selective inhibitor of HDAC6 with an IC50 value 150 nM. Some of these compounds showed potent antiproliferative activity in several tumor cell lines (HCT116, MCF7, and B16). Amongst all the compounds tested for their anticancer effect against cancer cell lines, 5c emerged to be most active against the MCF-7 line with an IC50 of 13.7 μM; it exhibited cell-cycle arrest in the G2 phase, as well as promoted apoptosis. Additionally, we noted a significant reduction in the colony-forming capability of cancer cells in the presence of 5c. At the intracellular level, selective inhibition of HDAC6 was enumerated by monitoring the acetylation of α-tubulin with a limited effect on acetyl-H3. Importantly, the obtained results suggested a potent effect of 5c at sub-micromolar concentrations as compared to the other molecules as HDAC6 inhibitors in vitro.

Synthesis/biological evaluation of hydroxamic acids and their prodrugs as inhibitors for Botulinum neurotoxin A light chain.

Project description:Botulinum neurotoxin A (BoNT/A) is the most potent toxin known. Unfortunately, it is also a potential bioweapon in terrorism, which is without an approved therapeutic treatment once cellular intoxication takes place. Previously, we reported how hydroxamic acid prodrug carbamates increased cellular uptake, which translated to successful inhibition of this neurotoxin. Building upon this research, we detail BoNT/A protease molecular modeling studies accompanied by the construction of small library of hydroxamic acids based on 2,4-dichlorocinnamic hydroxamic acid scaffold and their carbamate prodrug derivatization along with the evaluation of these molecules in both enzymatic and cellular models.
