The development of multifunctional molecules that are able to simultaneously interact with several pathological components has been considered as a solution to treat the complex pathologies of neurodegenerative diseases. Herein, a series of aminomethylindole derivatives were synthesized, and evaluation of their application for antineuroinflammation and promoting neurite outgrowth was disclosed. Our initial screening showed that most of the compounds potently inhibited lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated production of NO in microglial cells and potentiated the action of NGF to promote neurite outgrowth of PC12 cells. Interestingly, with outstanding NO/TNF-α production inhibition and neurite outgrowth-promoting activities, compounds 8c and 8g were capable of rescuing cells after injury by H2O2. Their antineuroinflammatory effects were associated with the downregulation of the LPS-induced expression of the inflammatory mediators inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2). Western blotting and immunofluorescence assay results indicated that the mechanism of their antineuroinflammatory actions involved suppression of the MAPK/NF-κB signal pathways. Further studies revealed that another important reason for the high comprehensive antineuroinflammatory activity was the anti-COX-2 capabilities of the compounds. All these results suggest that the potential biochemical multifunctional profiles of the aminomethylindole derivatives provide a new sight for the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases.

Heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) is a ubiquitous molecular chaperone that is responsible for the stabilization and maturation of many oncogenic proteins. Therefore, Hsp90 has emerged as an attractive target in the field of cancer chemotherapy. In this study, we report the design, synthesis, and biological evaluation of a series of Hsp90 inhibitors. In particular, compound 30f shows a significant Hsp90α inhibitory activity with IC50 value of 5.3 nM and an excellent growth inhibition with GI50 value of 0.42 μM against non-small cell lung cancer cells, H1975. Compound 30f effectively reduces the expression levels of Hsp90 client proteins including Her2, EGFR, Met, Akt, and c-Raf. Consequently, compound 30f promotes substantial cleavages of PARP, Caspase 3, and Caspase 8, indicating that 30f induces cancer cell death via apoptotic pathway. Moreover, cytochrome P450 assay indicates that compound 30f has weak inhibitory effect on the activities of five major P450 isoforms (IC50 > 5 μM for 1A2, 2C9, 2C19, 2D6, and 3A), suggesting that clinical interactions between 30f and the substrate drugs of the five major P450 isoforms are not expected. Compound 30f also inhibits the tumor growth in a mouse xenograft model bearing subcutaneous H1975 without noticeable abnormal behavior and body weight changes. The immunostaining and western immunoblot analysis of EGFR, Met, Akt in xenograft tissue sections of tumor further demonstrate a good agreement with the in vitro results.
