The specific targeting of protein-protein interactions by phosphoserine-containing small molecules has been scarce due to the dephosphorylation of phosphoserine and its charged nature at physiological pH, which hinder its uptake into cells. To address these issues, we herein report the synthesis of phosphoserine aryloxy triester phosphoramidates as phosphoserine prodrugs that are enzymatically metabolized to release phosphoserine. This phosphoserine-masking approach was applied to a phosphoserine-containing inhibitor of 14-3-3 dimerization, and the generated prodrugs exhibited improved pharmacological activity. Collectively, this provided a proof of concept that the masking of phosphoserine with biocleavable aryloxy triester phosphoramidate masking groups is a viable intracellular delivery system for phosphoserine-containing molecules. Ultimately, this will facilitate the discovery of phosphoserine-containing small-molecule therapeutics.

Molecules that are capable of disrupting cellular ion homeostasis offer unique opportunities to treat cancer. However, previously reported synthetic ion transporters showed limited value, as promiscuous ionic disruption caused toxicity to both healthy cells and cancer cells indiscriminately. Here we report a simple yet efficient synthetic K+ transporter that takes advantage of the endogenous subcellular pH gradient and membrane potential to site-selectively mediate K+/H+ transport on the mitochondrial and lysosomal membranes in living cells. Consequent mitochondrial and lysosomal damages enhanced cytotoxicity to chemo-resistant ovarian cancer stem cells (CSCs) via apoptosis induction and autophagy suppression with remarkable selectivity (up to 47-fold). The eradication of CSCs blunted tumor formation in mice. We believe this strategy can be exploited in the structural design and applications of next-generation synthetic cation transporters for the treatment of cancer and other diseases related to dysfunctional K+ channels.

A unique heterogeneous palladium catalyst (7% Pd/WA30) supported on an anion exchange resin, which contains N,N-dimethylaminoalkyl functionalities on the polymer backbone, was developed. 7% Pd/WA30 could smoothly catalyze Suzuki–Miyaura reactions of even less reactive heteroaryl chlorides and heteroarylboronic acids to afford various (hetero)biaryls due to the electron-donating effect of the tert-amines on WA30 to Pd species. It was also applicable as a chemoselective hydrogenation catalyst, showing inactivity for the hydrogenolysis of tert-butyldimethylsilyl (TBS) ethers, alkyl benzyl ethers, and benzyl alcohols. The tert-amines on WA30 acted as moderate catalyst poisons for Pd, resulting in chemoselective hydrogenation. 7% Pd/WA30 was reused for at least five times without any loss of the hydrogenation catalytic activity. (Figure presented.).

A series of small molecules bearing an α-ketoamide warhead were synthesized and evaluated for their ability to inhibit cathepsin S, a key proteolytic enzyme upregulated in many cancers during tumor progression and metastasis. Most of the synthetic compounds were noncytotoxic, but several robustly inhibited cathepsin S (IC50 10 nM) and potently suppressed cell migration, invasion, and capillary tube formation. These results highlight the potential of α-ketoamide therapy for preventing or delaying cancer spread.
