Discovery of pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine derivatives as potent Axl inhibitors: Design, synthesis and biological evaluation

Axl has emerged as an attractive target for cancer therapy due to its strong correlation with tumor growth, metastasis, poor survival, and drug resistance. Herein, we report the design, synthesis and structure-activity relationship (SAR) investigation of a series of pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine derivatives as new Axl inhibitors. Among them, the most promising compound 13b showed high enzymatic and cellular Axl potencies. Furthermore, 13b possessed preferable pharmacokinetic properties and displayed promising therapeutic effect in BaF3/TEL-Axl xenograft tumor model. Compound 13b may serve as a lead compound for new antitumor drug discovery.

Bioisosteric replacement of an acylureido moiety attached to an indolin-2-one scaffold with a malonamido or a 2/4-pyridinoylamido moiety produces a selectively potent Aurora-B inhibitor

Bioisosteric replacement of acylureido moiety in 6-acylureido-3- pyrrolylmethylidene-2-oxoindoline derivatives resulted in a series of malonamido derivatives with indolin-2-one scaffold (11-14). Further conformational restrictions of the malonamido moiety led to 2-oxo-1,2-dihydropyridine (21-25) or a 4-oxo-1,4-dihydropyridine derivatives (31-36). 4-Oxo-1,4-dihydropyridine derivatives were more potent Aurora B inhibitors than their 2-oxo-1,2- dihydropyridine counterparts and demonstrated cytotoxicities against A549 and HepG2 cells in the submicromolar range. In A549 cells, 31h decreased phosphorylation of histone H3, triggered polyploidy, induced expression of pro-apoptotic Fas and FasL with subsequent activation of caspase 8, resulting into apoptosis. In a Huh7-xenograft mouse model, 31h demonstrated potent in vivo efficacy with a daily dose of 5 mg/kg.

Structural optimization and biological evaluation of 2-substituted 5-hydroxyindole-3-carboxylates as potent inhibitors of human 5-lipoxygenase

Pharmacological suppression of leukotriene biosynthesis by inhibitors of 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO) is a strategy to intervene with inflammatory and allergic disorders. We recently presented 2-amino-5-hydroxy-1H-indoles as efficient 5-LO inhibitors in cell-based and cell-free assays. Structural optimization led to novel benzo[g]indole-3-carboxylates exemplified by ethyl 2-(3-chlorobenzyl)-5- hydroxy-1H-benzo[g]indole-3-carboxylate (compound 11a), which inhibits 5-LO activity in human neutrophils and recombinant human 5-LO with IC50 values of 0.23 and 0.086 μM, respectively. Notably, 11a efficiently blocks 5-LO product formation in human whole blood assays (IC50 = 0.83-1.6 μM) and significantly prevented leukotriene B4 production in pleural exudates of carrageenan-treated rats, associated with reduced severity of pleurisy. Together, on the basis of their high potency against 5-LO and the marked efficacy in biological systems, these novel and straightforward benzo[g]indole-3-carboxylates may have potential as anti-inflammatory therapeutics.
