Discovery of a Series of 1,2,3-Triazole-Containing Erlotinib Derivatives With Potent Anti-Tumor Activities Against Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer.

ABSTRACT: Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) are emerging at the vanguard of therapy for non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with EGFR-activating mutations. However, the increasing therapeutic resistance caused by novel mutations or activated bypass pathways has impaired their performance. In this study, we link one of the commercial EGFR-TKIs, Erlotinib, to different azide compounds to synthesize a novel class of 1,2,3-triazole ring-containing Erlotinib derivatives. We discovered that several new compounds show robust antiproliferation activity against diverse NSCLC cells in vitro including PC-9, H460, H1975 and A549. Two of the most potent compounds, e4 and e12 have been found to be more efficient than Erlotinib in all NSCLC cell lines except PC-9. They significantly induce apoptosis and cell cycle arrest in PC-9 and H460 cells. The antitumor efficacy of compound e4 in vivo is close to that of Erlotinib in a PC-9 xenograft mouse model. Most Erlotinib-1,2,3-triazole compounds exhibit moderate to good inhibitory activities toward wild-type EGFR as indicated by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), and the EGFR phosphorylation was inhibited in H460 and PC-9 cells exposed to e4 or e12. These data suggest that these Erlotinib-1,2,3-triazole compounds are suitable candidates for use against NSCLC and more unknown mechanisms merit further investigation.

Discovery of a Series of Theophylline Derivatives Containing 1,2,3-Triazole for Treatment of Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer.

Project description:Chemotherapy is the most common clinical treatment for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), but low efficiency and high toxicity of current chemotherapy drugs limit their clinical application. Therefore, it is urgent to develop hypotoxic and efficient chemotherapy drugs. Theophylline, a natural compound, is safe and easy to get, and it can be used as a modified scaffold structure and hold huge potential for developing safe and efficient antitumor drugs. Herein, we linked theophylline with different azide compounds to synthesize a new type of 1,2,3-triazole ring-containing theophylline derivatives. We found that some theophylline1,2,3-triazole compounds showed a good tumor-suppressive efficacy. Especially, derivative d17 showed strong antiproliferative activity against a variety of cancer cells in vitro, including H460, A549, A2780, LOVO, MB-231, MCF-7, OVCAR3, SW480, and PC-9. It is worth noting that the two NSCLC cell lines H460 H and A549 are sensitive to compound d17 particularly, with IC50 of 5.929 ± 0.97 μM and 6.76 ± 0.25 μM, respectively. Compound d17 can significantly induce cell apoptosis by increasing the ratio of apoptotic protein Bax/Bcl-2 by downregulating the expression of phosphorylated Akt protein, and it has little toxicity to normal hepatocyte cells LO2 at therapeutic concentrations. These data indicate that these theophylline acetic acid-1,2,3-triazole derivatives may be potential drug candidates for anti-NSCLC and are worthy of further study.

Synthesis and Antitumor Activity of Erlotinib Derivatives Linked With 1,2,3-Triazole.

Project description:Cervical cancer is one of the most important cause of cancer-related death and presents a major public health problem in many countries. To search for more novel antitumor agents against cervical cancer, 14 erlotinib-linked 1,2,3-triazole compounds were designed, synthesized, and evaluated for their anti-tumor activity. The compounds were confirmed by 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and high-resolution mass spectra (HR MS). Antitumor activity assay results indicated that six of those compounds have remarkable inhibitory activity against human cervical cancer HeLa cells in vitro, among which compound 4m was the most potent with IC50 of 3.79 μM, and compounds 4k, 4i, 4l, 4d, and 4n also demonstrated remarkable antitumor activity with IC50 of 3.79, 4.16, 4.36, 7.02, and 8.21 μM. We found three of the most potent compounds 4d, 4k, and 4l induced potent apoptosis and cell cycle arrest in HeLa cells, and compounds 4d and 4l significantly restrained the cell colony formation and showed moderate epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) inhibitory activity with IC50 of 13.01 and 1.76 μM. Therefore, these experiments indicate that these erlotinib-linked 1,2,3-triazole compounds are potential to act as effective anticancer agents against cervical cancer.

Discovery of Icotinib-1,2,3-Triazole Derivatives as IDO1 Inhibitors.

Project description:Tumor immunotherapy is considered to be a highlight in cancer treatment in recent years. Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase 1 (IDO1) is closely related to the over expression of many cancers, and is therefore a promising target for tumor immunotherapy. To search for novel IDO1-targeting therapeutic agents, 22 icotinib-linked 1,2,3-triazole derivatives were prepared and evaluated for their inhibitory activity against IDO1. The structures of the prepared compounds were confirmed with1H NMR, 13C NMR and HR MS. IDO1 inhibitory activity assay results indicated that 10 of those compounds showed remarkable inhibitory activity against IDO1, among which compound a17 was the most potent with IC50value of 0.37 ?M. The binding model between the prepared compounds and IDO1 was studied with molecular modeling study. The current study suggested that icotinib-1,2,3-triazole derivatives could be used as potential inhibitors that preferentially bind to the ferrous form of IDO1 through the formation of coordinate bond with the haem iron.

Exploration of 5-cyano-6-phenylpyrimidin derivatives containing an 1,2,3-triazole moiety as potent FAD-based LSD1 inhibitors.

Project description:Histone lysine specific demethylase 1 (LSD1) has become a potential therapeutic target for the treatment of cancer. Discovery and develop novel and potent LSD1 inhibitors is a challenge, although several of them have already entered into clinical trials. Herein, for the first time, we reported the discovery of a series of 5-cyano-6-phenylpyrimidine derivatives as LSD1 inhibitors using flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) similarity-based designing strategy, of which compound 14q was finally identified to repress LSD1 with IC50 = 183 nmol/L. Docking analysis suggested that compound 14q fitted well into the FAD-binding pocket. Further mechanism studies showed that compound 14q may inhibit LSD1 activity competitively by occupying the FAD binding sites of LSD1 and inhibit cell migration and invasion by reversing epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT). Overall, these findings showed that compound 14q is a suitable candidate for further development of novel FAD similarity-based LSD1 inhibitors.

Discovery of Metal Ions Chelator Quercetin Derivatives with Potent Anti-HCV Activities.

Project description:Analogues or isosteres of α,γ-diketoacid (DKA) 1a show potent inhibition of hepatitis C virus (HCV) NS5B polymerase through chelation of the two magnesium ions at the active site. The anti-HCV activity of the flavonoid quercetin (2) could partly be attributed to it being a structural mimic of DKAs. In order to delineate the structural features required for the inhibitory effect and improve the anti-HCV potency, two novel types of quercetin analogues, 7-O-arylmethylquercetins and quercetin-3-O-benzoic acid esters, were designed, synthesized and evaluated for their anti-HCV properties in cell-based assays. Among the 38 newly synthesized compounds, 7-O-substituted derivative 3i and 3-O-substituted derivative 4f were found to be the most active in the corresponding series (EC50 = 3.8 μM and 9.0 μΜ, respectively). Docking studies suggested that the quercetin analogues are capable of establishing key coordination with the two magnesium ions as well as interactions with residues at the active site of HCV NS5B.

Design, synthesis and biological evaluation of tacrine-1,2,3-triazole derivatives as potent cholinesterase inhibitors.

Project description:We report herein the design and synthesis of a series of 11 novel tacrine-1,2,3-triazole derivatives via a Cu(i)-catalyzed alkyne-azide 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition (CuAAC) reaction. The newly synthesized compounds were evaluated for their inhibition activity against Electrophorus electricus acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and horse serum butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) as potential drug targets for Alzheimer's disease (AD). Among the designed compounds, compound 8a2 exhibited potent inhibition against AChE and BChE with IC50 values of 4.89 ?M and 3.61 ?M, respectively. Further structure-activity relationship (SAR) and molecular modeling studies may provide valuable insights into the design of better tacrine-triazole analogues with potential therapeutic applications for AD.

Semi-Synthesis of New 1,2,3-Triazole Derivatives of 9-Bromonoscapine and their Anticancer Activities.

Project description:Novel 1,2,3-triazole-tethered 9-bromonoscapine derivatives were synthesized by the propargylation of N-nornoscapine followed by Huisgen's 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of the terminal alkynes with different azides. Cytotoxicity of the products was studied by MTT assay against the MCF-7 breast cancer cell line. Most of the compounds revealed a better cytotoxicity than N-nornoscapine and 9-bromonornoscapine as the parent compounds. Among the synthesized compounds, those with a hydroxylated aliphatic side chain (5p, 5q, and 5r) showed the highest activities (IC50s: 47.2, 37.9, and 32.3 μg/mL, respectively). Molecular docking studies showed that these compounds also had the highest docking scores and effective interactions with binding sites equal to -8.074, -7.425 and -7.820 kcal/mol, respectively.

Discovery and Optimization of 5-Amino-1,2,3-triazole-4-carboxamide Series against Trypanosoma cruzi.

Project description:Chagas' disease, caused by the protozoan parasite Trypanosoma cruzi, is the most common cause of cardiac-related deaths in endemic regions of Latin America. There is an urgent need for new safer treatments because current standard therapeutic options, benznidazole and nifurtimox, have significant side effects and are only effective in the acute phase of the infection with limited efficacy in the chronic phase. Phenotypic high content screening against the intracellular parasite in infected VERO cells was used to identify a novel hit series of 5-amino-1,2,3-triazole-4-carboxamides (ATC). Optimization of the ATC series gave improvements in potency, aqueous solubility, and metabolic stability, which combined to give significant improvements in oral exposure. Mitigation of a potential Ames and hERG liability ultimately led to two promising compounds, one of which demonstrated significant suppression of parasite burden in a mouse model of Chagas' disease.

Antibacterial Activities and Molecular Docking of Novel Sulfone Biscompound Containing Bioactive 1,2,3-Triazole Moiety.

Project description:In this study, a new synthetic 1,2,3-triazole-containing disulfone compound was derived from dapsone. Its chemical structure was confirmed using microchemical and analytical data, and it was tested for its in vitro antibacterial potential. Six different pathogenic bacteria were selected. MICs values and ATP levels were determined. Further, toxicity performance was measured using MicroTox Analyzer. In addition, a molecular docking study was performed against two vital enzymes: DNA gyrase and Dihydropteroate synthase. The results of antibacterial abilities showed that the studied synthetic compound had a strong bactericidal effect against all tested bacterial strains, as Gram-negative species were more susceptible to the compound than Gram-positive species. Toxicity results showed that the compound is biocompatible and safe without toxic impact. The molecular docking of the compound showed interactions within the pocket of two enzymes, which are able to stabilize the compound and reveal its antimicrobial activity. Hence, from these results, this study recommends that the established compound could be an outstanding candidate for fighting a broad spectrum of pathogenic bacterial strains, and it might therefore be used for biomedical and pharmaceutical applications.

Discovery of novel 1,4-disubstituted 1,2,3-triazole phenylalanine derivatives as HIV-1 capsid inhibitors.

Project description:The HIV-1 capsid (CA) protein plays crucial roles in both early and late stages of the viral life cycle, which has intrigued researchers to target it to develop anti-HIV drugs. Accordingly, in this research, we report the design, synthesis and biological evaluation of a series of novel phenylalanine derivatives as HIV-1 CA protein inhibitors using the Cu(I)-catalyzed azide and alkyne 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition (CuAAC) reaction. Among this series of inhibitors, compound II-10c displayed a remarkable anti-HIV activity (EC50 = 2.13 ?M, CC50 > 35.49 ?M). Furthermore, surface plasmon resonance (SPR) binding assays showed that compounds II-10c and PF-74 (lead compound) have similar affinities to HIV-1 CA monomer. Further investigation showed that the weak permeability and water solubility of representative compounds were probably the important factors that restricted their cell-based activity. Preliminary structure-activity relationships (SARs) were inferred based on the activities of these compounds, and their known structure. The most promising new compound was studied with molecular dynamics simulation (MD) to determine the preferred interactions with the drug target. Finally, the activities of members of this series of inhibitors were deeply inspected to find the potential reasons for their anti-HIV-1 activity from various perspectives. This highlights the important factors required to design compounds with improved potency.
