- Development of small-molecule probes that selectively kill cells induced to express mutant RAS
-
Synthetic lethal screening is a chemical biology approach to identify small molecules that selectively kill oncogene-expressing cell lines with the goal of identifying pathways that provide specific targets against cancer cells. We performed a high-throughput screen of 303,282 compounds from the National Institutes of Health-Molecular Libraries Small Molecule Repository (NIH-MLSMR) against immortalized BJ fibroblasts expressing HRASG12V followed by a counterscreen of lethal compounds in a series of isogenic cells lacking the HRASG12V oncogene. This effort led to the identification of two novel molecular probes (PubChem CID 3689413, ML162 and CID 49766530, ML210) with nanomolar potencies and 4-23-fold selectivities, which can potentially be used for identifying oncogene-specific pathways and targets in cancer cells.

- Design, synthesis and biological evaluation of piperazine analogues as CB1 cannabinoid receptor ligands
-
After the CB1 receptor antagonist SR141716 (rimonabant) was previously reported to modulate food intake, CB1 antagonism has been considered as a new therapeutic target for the treatment of obesity. Several series of urea, carbamate, amide, sulfonamide and oxalamide derivatives based on 1-benzhydrylpiperazine scaffold were synthesized and tested for CB1 receptor binding affinity. The SAR studies to optimize the CB1 binding affinity led to the potent urea derivatives. After the additional SAR studies to optimize the substituents of diphenyl rings, the combination of 2-chlorophenyl and 4-chlorophenyl turned out to be the most potent scaffold. The CB2 binding affinity assay as well as functional assay was also conducted on these compounds. Herein we wish to introduce several novel CB1 antagonists with IC50 values less than 100 nM for the CB1 receptor binding.

Several phosphonic diethyl esters were synthesized and their calcium antagonistic activity evaluated in vitro.The diethyl phosphonate group was condensed on substituted , , , , and groups.Despite the presence of the diethyl phosphonate moiety and the benzhydrylpiperazinyl group, both present in potent calcium antagonist structures, only 1 of the 19 synthesis compounds exhibited a calcium antagonistic profile. diethyl phosphonate / benzhydryl piperazine / calcium antagonist

- Estrogen Synthetase Inhibitors. 2. Comparison of the in Vitro Aromatase Inhibitory Activity for a Variety of Nitrogen Heterocycles Substituted with Diarylmethane or Diarylmethanol Groups
-
The preparation and in vitro aromatase inhibitory activity of a wide variety of heterocyclic (4,4'-dichlorodiphenyl)methanes and -methanols are described.The choice of the two diaryl-bearing moieties as a vehicle for the evaluation of the heterocycles was made by the comparison of series of imidazole and pyridine-derived compunds with similar pyrimidine compounds reported previously.A structural model for the most active compounds is also presented.The activity of a related series of compounds which contain two heterocyclic moieties was found to be consistent with the model.Many of the compounds evaluated, including representatives of the pyridine, imidazole, pyrimidine, pyrazole, triazole, thiazole, and isothiazole classes, exhibit EC50 potencies for aromatase inhibition at low nanomolar levels.These compunds are at least as potent as other nonsteroidal aromatase inhibitors reported previously.
