Human 17β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 (17β-HSD1) catalyzes the reduction of the weak estrogen estrone (E1) to the highly potent estradiol (E2). This reaction takes place in the target cell where the estrogenic effect is exerted via the estrogen receptor (ER). Estrogens, especially E2, are known to stimulate the proliferation of hormone-dependent diseases. 17β-HSD1 is overexpressed in many breast tumors. Thus, it is an attractive target for the treatment of these diseases. Ligand- and structure-based drug design led to the discovery of novel, selective, and potent inhibitors of 17β-HSD1. Phenyl-substituted bicyclic moieties were synthesized as mimics of the steroidal substrate. Computational methods were used to obtain insight into their interactions with the protein. Compound 5 turned out to be a highly potent inhibitor of 17β-HSD1 showing good selectivity (17β-HSD2, ERα and β), medium cell permeation, reasonable metabolic stability (rat hepatic microsomes), and little inhibition of hepatic CYP enzymes.
