Revisiting tubercidin against kinetoplastid parasites: Aromatic substitutions at position 7 improve activity and reduce toxicity

The nucleoside antibiotic tubercidin displays strong activity against different target organisms, but it is notoriously toxic to mammalian cells. The effects of tubercidin against T. brucei parasites inspired us to synthesize several C7 substituted analogs for in vitro evaluation in order to find suitable hit compounds. C7 Deazaadenosines substituted with electron-poor phenyl groups were found to have micromolar activity against T. brucei in vitro. Replacement of the phenyl for a pyridine ring gave compound 13, with submicromolar potency and much-attenuated cytotoxicity compared to tubercidin. The veterinary pathogen T. congolense was equally affected by 13 in vitro. Transporter studies in T. b. brucei indicated that 13 is taken up efficiently by both the P1 and P2 adenosine transporters, making the occurrence of transporter-related resistance and cross-resistance with diamidine drugs such as diminazene aceturate and pentamidine as well as with melaminophenyl arsenicals unlikely. Evaluation of the in vitro metabolic stability of analog 13 indicated that this analog was significantly metabolized in mouse microsomal fractions, precluding further in vivo evaluation in mouse models of HAT.

New small molecule inhibitors of histone methyl transferase DOT1L with a nitrile as a non-traditional replacement for heavy halogen atoms

A number of new nucleoside derivatives are disclosed as inhibitors of DOT1L activity. SARs established that DOT1L inhibition could be achieved through incorporation of polar groups and small heterocycles at the 5-position (5, 6, 12) or by the application of alternative nitrogenous bases (18). Based on these results, CN-SAH (19) was identified as a potent and selective inhibitor of DOT1L activity where the polar 5-nitrile group was shown by crystallography to bind in the hydrophobic pocket of DOT1L. In addition, we show that a polar nitrile group can be used as a non-traditional replacement for heavy halogen atoms.

Synthesis and significant cytostatic activity of 7-hetaryl-7- deazaadenosines

A series of 7-aryl- and 7-hetaryl-7-deazaadenosines were prepared by the cross-coupling reactions of unprotected or protected 7-iodo-7-deazaadenosines with (het)arylboronic acids, stannanes, or zinc halides. Nucleosides bearing 5-membered heterocycles at
