Design, Synthesis, and Biological Evaluation of Novel Acylhydrazone Derivatives as Potent Neuraminidase Inhibitors.

ABSTRACT: Neuraminidase (NA) is an important target for current research on anti-influenza drugs. The acylhydrazone derivatives containing the -CONHN=CH- framework have been shown to have good NA inhibitory activity. In this paper, a series of novel acylhydrazone NA inhibitors (9a-9n) were designed and synthesized, and the inhibitory activities against NA were evaluated in vitro. The NA inhibition results showed that compound 9j has the most potent inhibitory activity (IC₅₀ = 0.6 μM) against NA, which is significantly lower than that of the positive control oseltamivir carboxylic acid (OSC) (IC₅₀ = 17.00 μM). Molecular docking analysis indicates that the acylhydrazone group plays an important role in compound 9j, which can bind well to the residues Arg371 and Arg292 in the S1 subsite of NA. The good potency of 9j may be also ascribed to the extending of morpholinyl ring into the 430-cavity. The results of this work may contribute to the development of more potent NA inhibitors to against mutant influenza viruses.

Project description:Serine/threonine protein kinase PLK4 is a master regulator of centriole duplication, which is significant for maintaining genome integrity. Accordingly, due to the detection of PLK4 overexpression in a variety of cancers, PLK4 has been identified as a candidate anticancer target. Thus, it is a very meaningful to find effective and safe PLK4 inhibitors for the treatment of cancer. However, the reported PLK4 inhibitors are scarce and have potential safety issues. In this study, a series of novel and potent PLK4 inhibitors with an aminopyrimidine core was obtained utilizing the scaffold hopping strategy. The in vitro enzyme activity results showed that compound 8h (PLK4 IC50 = 0.0067 μM) displayed high PLK4 inhibitory activity. In addition, compound 8h exhibited a good plasma stability (t1/2 > 289.1 min), liver microsomal stability (t1/2 > 145 min), and low risk of DDIs. At the cellular level, it presented excellent antiproliferative activity against breast cancer cells. Taken together, these results suggest that compound 8h has potential value in the further research of PLK4-targeted anticancer drugs.

Design, synthesis, and biological evaluation of novel carbazole derivatives as potent DNMT1 inhibitors with reasonable PK properties.

Project description:The DNA methyltransferases (DNMTs) were found in mammals to maintain DNA methylation. Among them, DNMT1 was the first identified, and it is an attractive target for tumour chemotherapy. DC_05 and DC_517 have been reported in our previous work, which is non-nucleoside DNMT1 inhibitor with low micromolar IC50 values and significant selectivity towards other S-adenosyl-L-methionine (SAM)-dependent protein methyltransferases. In this study, through a process of similarity-based analog searching, a series of DNMT1 inhibitors were designed, synthesized, and evaluated as anticancer agents. SAR studies were conducted based on enzymatic assays. And most of the compounds showed strong inhibitory activity on human DNMT1, especially WK-23 displayed a good inhibitory effect on human DNMT1 with an IC50 value of 5.0 µM. Importantly, the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of WK-23 was obtained with quite satisfying oral bioavailability and elimination half-life. Taken together, WK-23 is worth developing as DNMT1-selective therapy for the treatment of malignant tumour.

Design, Synthesis, and Biological Evaluation of Novel Imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine Derivatives as Potent c-Met Inhibitors.

Project description:A series of imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine derivatives against c-Met was designed by means of bioisosteric replacement. In this study, a selective, potent c-Met inhibitor, 22e was identified, with IC50 values of 3.9 nM against c-Met kinase and 45.0 nM against c-Met-addicted EBC-1 cell proliferation, respectively. Compound 22e inhibited c-Met phosphorylation and downstream signaling across different oncogenic forms in c-Met overactivated cancer cells and model cells. Compound 22e significantly inhibited tumor growth (TGI = 75%) with good oral bioavailability (F = 29%) and no significant hERG inhibition. On the basis of systematic metabolic study, the pathway of all possible metabolites of 22e in liver microsomes of different species has been proposed, and a major NADPH-dependent metabolite 33 was generated by liver microsomes. To block the metabolic site, 42 was designed and synthesized for further evaluation. Taken together, the imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine scaffold showed promising pharmacological inhibition of c-Met and warrants further investigation.

Design, synthesis and biological evaluation of novel 2-phenyl pyrimidine derivatives as potent Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitors.

Project description:BTK is an effective target for the treatment of B-cell malignant tumors and autoimmune diseases. In this work, a series of 2-phenyl pyrimidine derivatives were prepared and their preliminary in vitro activities on B-cell leukemia cells as well as the BTK enzyme were determined. The results showed that compound 11g displayed the best inhibitory activity on BTK with an inhibition rate of 82.76% at 100 nM and excellent anti-proliferation activity on three B-cell leukemia lines (IC50 = 3.66 ?M, 6.98 ?M, and 5.39 ?M against HL60, Raji and Ramos, respectively). Besides, the flow cytometry analysis results indicated that 11g inhibited the proliferation of the Raji cells in a dose- and time-dependent manner, and blocked the Ramos cells at the G0/G1 phase, which is in accordance with the positive control ibrutinib. The mechanism investigation demonstrated that 11g could inhibit the phosphorylation of BTK and its downstream substrate phospholipase ?2 (PLC?2). All these results showed that 11g was a promising lead compound that merited further optimization as a novel class of BTK inhibitor for the treatment of B-cell lymphoblastic leukemia.

Bis-isatin derivatives: design, synthesis, and biological activity evaluation as potent dimeric DJ-1 inhibitors.

Project description:The PARK7 gene (encode DJ-1 protein) was first discovered as an oncogene and later found to be a causative gene for autosomal recessive early onset Parkinson's disease. DJ-1 has been proposed as a potential therapeutic anticancer target due to its pivotal role in tumorigenesis and cancer progression. Based on the homodimer structure of DJ-1, a series of bis-isatin derivatives with different length linkers were designed, synthesized, and evaluated as dimeric inhibitors targeting DJ-1 homodimer. Among them, DM10 with alkylene chain of C10 displayed the most potent inhibitory activity against DJ-1 deglycase. We further demonstrated that DM10 bound covalently to the homodimer of DJ-1. In human cancer cell lines H1299, MDA-MB-231, BEL7402, and 786-O, DM10 (2.5-20 μM) inhibited the cell growth in a concentration-dependent manner showing better anticancer effects compared with the positive control drug STK793590. In nude mice bearing H1299 cell xenograft, intratumor injection of DM10 (15 mg/kg) produced significantly potent tumor growth inhibition when compared with that caused by STK793590 (30 mg/kg). Moreover, we found that DM10 could significantly enhance N-(4-hydroxyphenyl)retinamide-based apoptosis and erastin-based ferroptosis in H1299 cells. In conclusion, DM10 is identified as a potent inhibitor targeting DJ-1 homodimer with the potential as sensitizing agent for other anticancer drugs, which might provide synergistical therapeutic option for cancer treatment.

Tetrahydroquinolinone derivatives as potent P-glycoprotein inhibitors: design, synthesis, biological evaluation and molecular docking analysis.

Project description:P-glycoprotein (P-gp) is a transmembrane efflux pump that has been associated with ineffective cancer chemotherapy and multidrug resistance (MDR). Chemical inhibitors of P-gp could have potential cancer therapeutic applications by preventing or reversing MDR. To exploit this, we designed twenty-five tetrahydroquinolinone analogs bearing pyridyl methyl carboxylate at C3 and different substituents at C4 as MDR reversal agents. The inhibitory effects of the synthesized compounds against P-gp were assessed by flow cytometric determination of rhodamine 123 accumulation in P-gp over-expressing MES-SA/DX5 cells. Fluorescence imaging of intracellular rhodamine 123 accumulation in MES-SA/DX5 cells was also performed. Furthermore, the effect of active derivatives on the reduction of doxorubicin's IC50 in MES-SA/DX5 cells was evaluated using MTT assay. Molecular docking was used to confirm the binding mode of some of the synthesized compounds. Five compounds in group A, bearing a 2-pyridyl methyl ester substituent at the C3 position, significantly increased rhodamine accumulation at 25 μM comparable to verapamil, a well-established P-gp inhibitor, while only 2 compounds in group B bearing 3-pyridyl methyl ester at the same position had this effect. This study shows that tetrahydroquinolinones containing methyl pyridine esters could represent an attractive scaffold for the discovery of P-gp inhibitors as MDR reversal agents in cancer cells.

Some compounds exhibited insecticidal activities against Plutella xylostella, Mythimna separate and Spodoptera frugiperda. Especially, compounds 7 and 27 displayed excellent insecticidal activities against Plutella xylostell (mortality 67 ± 6% and 53 ± 6%) even at 0.1 mg/L. Additionally, most echinopsine derivatives exhibited high fungicidal activities against Physalospora piricola and Sclerotinia sclerotiorum.
