- Rational drug design to explore the structure-activity relationship (SAR) of TRK inhibitors with 2,4-diaminopyrimidine scaffold
-
Tropomyosin receptor kinase (TRK) is an ideal target for treating cancers caused by the NTRK gene fusion. In this study, more than 60 2,4-diaminopyrimidine derivatives were prepared to understand the structure-activity relationship and confirm the rationality of the pharmacophore model reported previously. Among them, compound 19k was found to be a potent pan-TRK inhibitor that inhibits the proliferation of Km-12 cell lines. Additionally, compound 19k induced the apoptosis of Km-12 cells in a concentration-dependent manner. Western blot analysis revealed that compound 19k inhibited the phosphorylation of TRK to block downstream pathways. Compound 19k also possessed outstanding plasma stability and liver microsomal stability in vitro, with half-lives greater than 289.1 min and 145 min, respectively. Pharmacokinetic studies indicated that the oral bioavailability of compound 19k is 17.4%. These results demonstrate that compound 19k could serve as a novel lead compound for overcoming NTRK-fusion cancers.

- Design, synthesis and biological evaluation of N-hydroxy-aminobenzyloxyarylamide analogues as novel selective κ opioid receptor antagonists
-
Aminobenzyloxyarylamide derivatives 1a-i and 2a-t were designed and synthesized as novel selective κ opioid receptor (KOR) antagonists. The benzoyl amide moiety of LY2456302 was changed into N-hydroxybenzamide and benzisoxazole-3(2H)-one to investigate whether it could increase the binding affinity or selectivity for KOR. All target compounds were evaluated in radioligand binding assays for opioid receptor binding affinity. These efforts led to the identification of compound 1c (κ Ki = 179.9 nM), which exhibited high affinity for KOR. Moreover, the selectivity of KOR over MOR and DOR increased nearly 2-fold and 7-fold, respectively, compared with (±)LY2456302.

- Stereocomplementary Synthesis of Pharmaceutically Relevant Chiral 2-Aryl-Substituted Pyrrolidines Using Imine Reductases
-
Exploring a collection of naturally occurring imine reductases (IREDs) identified two stereocomplementary IREDs with reducing activity toward sterically hindered 2-aryl-substituted pyrrolines. Using (R)-selective ScIR and (S)-selective SvIR, various chiral 2-aryl-substituted pyrrolidines with excellent enantioselectivity (>99% ee) were stereocomplementarily synthesized in good yield (60-80%), demonstrating the feasibility of IREDs for generating pharmaceutically relevant chiral 2-aryl-substituted pyrrolidine intermediates.

- Design, synthesis and biological evaluation of aminobenzyloxyarylamide derivatives as selective κ opioid receptor antagonists
-
Opioid receptors play an important role in both behavioral and mood functions. Based on the structural modification of LY2456302, a series of aminobenzyloxyarylamide derivatives were designed and synthesized as κ opioid receptor antagonists. The κ opioid receptor binding ability of these compounds were evaluated with opioid receptors binding assays. Compounds 1a-d showed high affinity for κ opioid receptor. Especially for compound 1c, exhibited a significant Kivalue of 15.7?nM for κ opioid receptor binding and a higher selectivity over μ and δ opioid receptors compared to (±)LY2456302. In addition, compound 1c also showed potent κ antagonist activity with κ IC50?=?9.32?nM in [35S]GTP-γ-S functional assay. The potential use of the representative compounds as antidepressants was also investigated. The most potent compound 1c not only exhibited potent antidepressant activity in the mice forced swimming test, but also displayed the effect of anti-anxiety in the elevated plus-maze test.
