- Chemical synthesis and biochemical characterization of a biotinylated derivative of 17β-estradiol with a long side chain covalently attached to its C-7α position
-
High-affinity biotinylated derivatives of 17β-estradiol (E2) are of value for isolation of various estrogen-binding proteins (including estrogen receptors) and also for studying protein-protein interactions involving these proteins. In this study, we developed a simplified route for the chemical synthesis of a biotinylated derivative of E2 (compound 7) with a side chain attached to its C-7α position. Compound 7, i.e., 7α-{7-[8-(biotinamido)-octanamido]-heptyl}-estradiol, could be readily synthesized from 6-keto-estradiol-3,17β-di-tetrahydropyranyl ether (compound 2, which can be prepared from E2), with a final yield of 36%. In vitro receptor-binding assay confirmed that the synthesized affinity ligand has a high binding affinity for both human estrogen receptor α and β. When the affinity ligand (compound 7) was immobilized with avidin on an affinity column, it effectively bound human estrogen receptor α, and the receptor protein could be selectively eluted with a biotin-containing buffer. Using the same affinity ligand, prolyl 4-hydroxylase β-subunit (also known as protein disulfide isomerase) was identified as one of the high-affinity E2-binding proteins in the whole cytosolic protein mixture prepared from MCF-7 human breast cancer cells. Computational molecular modeling analysis showed that compound 7 can bind to human estrogen receptor α in a similar manner as ICI-182,780 and raloxifene, and their binding energy values are also similar.

- Synthesis of novel estrogen receptor antagonists using metal-catalyzed coupling reactions and characterization of their biological activity
-
Estrogen receptor (ER) antagonists are valuable in the treatment of ER-positive human breast cancer. In this study, we designed and synthesized nine new derivatives of 17β-estradiol (E2) with a bulky side chain attached to its C-7α position, and determined their ER antagonistic activity using in vitro bioassays. Four of the derivatives showed a strong inhibition of ERα transactivation activity in a luciferase reporter assay and blocked ERα interactions with coactivators. Similarly, these derivatives also strongly inhibited the growth of the ERα-positive human breast cancer cells. Computational docking analysis was conducted to model the interaction of these antagonists with the human ERα and showed that they could tightly bind to the ERα in a manner similar to that of ICI-182,780, a pure ER antagonist. These results provide an example that attachment of a bulky side chain to the C-7α position of E2 can produce ER antagonists with ER affinity comparable to that of ICI-182,780.

- Design, synthesis, and estrogenic activity of a novel estrogen receptor modulator - A hybrid structure of 17β-estradiol and vitamin E in hippocampal neurons
-
We recently discovered that ICI 182,780 (1), an antagonist of estrogen receptor (ER)-dependent proliferation in reproductive tissues, functions as an estrogenic agonist in primary neurons. The present study investigated whether the agonist properties of 1 in neurons could be translated into structural analogs. 7α-[(4R,8R)-4,8,-12-trimethyltridecyl]estra-1,3,5-trien-3, 17β-diol (2), a hybrid structure of 17β-estradiol and vitamin E, was synthesized and found to bind to both ERα and ERβ. In vitro analyses demonstrated that 2 was neuroprotective and effective in activating molecular mechanisms associated with estrogenic agonist activity in rat primary hippocampal neurons. Collectively, the data support an estrogenic agonist profile of 2 action comparable to 1 in primary neurons, confirming that estrogenic activity of 1 in neurons is not a unique phenomenon. These results provide support for the development of a brain-selective ER modulator, with potential as an efficacious and safe estrogen alternative to prevent Alzheimer's disease and cognitive decline in postmenopausal women.

- Synthesis and Binding Affinities of Novel Re-Containing 7α-Substituted Estradiol Complexes: Models for Breast Cancer Imaging Agents
-
The diagnosis and staging of breast cancer could be improved by the development of imaging radiopharmaceuticals that provide a noninvasive determination of the estrogen receptor status in the tumor cells. Toward this goal, we have synthesized a number of novel Re-containing 7α-substituted estradiol complexes. The introduction of the 7α side chain involves the alkylation of tetrahydropyranyloxy-protected 6-keto estradiol. The methods used to introduce the rhenium metal involve "3 + 1" and "4 + 1" mixed ligand complexes (2a-c and 5, respectively), tricarbonyl dithioether complexes (3), and the cyclopentadienyltricarbonylmetal organometallic system (4ab, 6, 7). These complexes showed binding affinities for the estrogen receptor (as high as 45% for the "3 + 1" complex 2c) when compared to the native ligand estradiol. The polarity of some complexes (4ab) was modified to improve biodistribution properties by introducing (poly)ether linkages into the 7α side chain (6, 7). These complexes provide a further refinement of our understanding of ligand structure-binding affinity correlations for the estrogen receptor, and they furnish the synthetic groundwork for the synthesis of the analogous Tc-99m complexes for evaluation as breast tumor imaging agents.

- 6-Oxoestradiols from estradiols: Exploiting site selective metalation of aralkyl systems with superbases

3-O-Protected estradiol derivatives undergo metalation at C-6 when exposed to a fourfold excess of the reagent consisting of an equimolar mixture of lithium diisopropylamide and potassium 1,1-dimethylpropoxide (3 h, THF, -78°C). The metalated intermediates can be oxidized by quenching with trimethyl borate followed by treatment with hydrogen peroxide, thus allowing the introduction of a 6-hydroxy group into the estradiol framework. Further oxidation of the 6-hydroxy group gives O-protected 6-oxoestradiols.
