- New coumarin/sulfocoumarin linked phenylacrylamides as selective transmembrane carbonic anhydrase inhibitors: Synthesis and in-vitro biological evaluation
-
Two novel series of phenylacrylamide linked coumarins and sulfocoumarins (6a-p, 8a-i, and 14a-g) were synthesized and evaluated against four physiologically relevant human carbonic anhydrases (hCAs, EC 4.2.1.1), isoforms hCA I, hCA II, hCA IX and hCA XII for their inhibitory action. All new compounds when screened for carbonic anhydrase inhibitory activity have shown selective inhibition towards the tumor associated isoforms hCA IX and XII over CA I and II, with inhibition constants in the submicromolar to low nanomolar range. Compound 6b and 14g exhibited significant inhibition with low nanomolar potency against hCA IX, whereas 6k was effective against hCA XII. Compounds 6b, 14g and 6k may be considered as lead molecules for future development of cancer therapeutics based on a novel mechanism of action.

- HETEROCYCLIC MITOCHONDRIAL ACTIVITY INHIBITORS AND USES THEREOF
-
Heterocyclic compounds of Formula (I) and pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof are disclosed. The use of such heterocyclic compounds and pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof for the treatment of cancers, and more particularly cancers sensitive to mitochondrial activity inhibition and increased reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels, is also disclosed. Such cancers include acute myeloid leukemia (AML), preferably AML characterized by certain features, such as high level of expression of one or more Homeobox (HOX)-network genes, high and/or low expression of specific genes, the presence of one or more cytogenetic or molecular risk factors such as intermediate cytogenetic risk, Normal Karyotype (A/K), mutated NPM1, mutated CEBPA, mutated FLT3, mutated DNMT3A, mutated TET2, mutated IDH1, mutated IDH2, mutated RUNX1, mutated WT1, mutated SRSF2, intermediate cytogenetic risk with abnormal karyotype (intern(abnK)), trisomy 8 (+8) and/or abnormal chromosome (5/7), and/or a high leukemic stem cell (LSC) frequency.

- Development of sulfonamides incorporating phenylacrylamido functionalities as carbonic anhydrase isoforms I, II, IX and XII inhibitors
-
A series of novel sulfonamides incorporating phenylacrylamido functionalities were synthesized and investigated for the inhibition of the metalloenzyme carbonic anhydrase (CA, EC 4.2.1.1). The physiologically and pharmacologically relevant human (h) isoforms hCA I and II (cytosolic isozymes), as well as the transmembrane tumor-associated hCA IX and XII were included in the study. These compounds showed low nanomolar or sub-nanomolar inhibition constants against hCA II (KIs in the range of 0.50–50.5 nM), hCA IX (KIs of 1.8–228.5 nM), and hCA XII (KIs of 3.5–96.2 nM) being less effective as inhibitors of the off target isoform hCA I. A detailed structure–activity relationship study demonstrates that the nature and position of substituents present on the aromatic part of the scaffold strongly influence the inhibition of CA isoforms. As hCA II, IX and XII are involved in pathologies such as glaucoma and hypoxic, and metastatic tumors, compounds of the type reported in this work may be useful preclinical candidates.
