Photoswitchable Antimetabolite for Targeted Photoactivated Chemotherapy

The efficacy and tolerability of systemically administered anticancer agents are limited by their off-target effects. Precise spatiotemporal control over their cytotoxic activity would allow improving chemotherapy treatments, and light-regulated drugs are well suited to this purpose. We have developed phototrexate, the first photoswitchable inhibitor of the human dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR), as a photochromic analogue of methotrexate, a widely prescribed chemotherapeutic drug to treat cancer and psoriasis. Quantification of the light-regulated DHFR enzymatic activity, cell proliferation, and in vivo effects in zebrafish show that phototrexate behaves as a potent antifolate in its photoactivated cis configuration and that it is nearly inactive in its dark-relaxed trans form. Thus, phototrexate constitutes a proof-of-concept to design light-regulated cytotoxic small molecules and a step forward to develop targeted anticancer photochemotherapies with localized efficacy and reduced adverse effects.

Synthesis of 2,4-diaminopyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidines and 2,4-diamino-quinazolines with bulky dibenz[b,f]azepine and dibenzo[a,d]-cycloheptene substituents at the 6-position as inhibitors of dihydrofolate reductases from Pneumocystis carinii, Toxoplasma gondii, and Mycobacterium avium

The synthesis of four previously undescribed 2,4-diaminopyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidines (3,4) and 2,4-diaminoquinazolines (5,6) with a bulky tricyclic aromatic group at the 6-position is described. Condensation of dibenz[b,f]azepine with 2,4-diamino-6-bromomethylpyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidine (8) and 2,4-diamino-6-bromomethylquinazoline (17) in the presence of sodium hydride afforded N-[(2,4-diaminopyrido[2,3-d]-pyrimidin-6-yl)methyl]dibenz[b,f]azepine (3) and N-[(2,4-diaminoquinazolin-6-yl)methyl]dibenz[b,f]-azepine (4), respectively. Condensation of 5-chlorodibenzo[a,d]cycloheptene (19) and 5-chloro-10,11-dihydrodibenzo[a,d]cycloheptene (20) with 2,4,6-triaminoquinazoline (13) afforded 5-[(2,4-diamino-quinazolin-6-yl)amino]-5H-dibenzo[a,d]cycloheptene (5) and the corresponding 10,11-dihydro derivative (6), respectively. The bromides 8 and 17, as hydrobromic acid salts, were obtained from the corresponding nitriles according to a standard three-step sequence consisting of treatment with Raney nickel in formic acid followed by reduction with sodium borohydride and bromination with dry hydrogen bromide in glacial acetic acid. Compounds 3-6 were evaluated in vitro for the ability to inhibit dihydrofolate reductase from Pneumocystis carinii, Toxoplasma gondii, Mycobacterium avium, and rat liven Compounds 3 and 4 were potent inhibitors of all four enzymes, with IC50 values in the 0.03-0.1 μM range, whereas 5 was less potent. However the selectivity of all four compounds for the parasite enzymes relative to the rat enzyme was 100-fold selectivity for the T. gondii and M. avium enzyme and 21-fold selectivity for the P. carinii enzyme.

Discovery of new antimalarial agents: Second-generation dual inhibitors against FP-2 and PfDHFR via fragments assembely

Malaria parasites are a leading cause of worldwide mortality from infectious disease. Cysteine protease falcipain-2 (FP-2) and Plasmodium falciparum dihydrofolate reductase (PfDHFR) play vital roles, which are absolutely essential, in the parasite life cycle. In this study, based on the structures of uniform fragments of reported PfDHFR inhibitors and the first-generation dual inhibitors against FP-2 and PfDHFR, we identified a novel series of dual inhibitors through fragments assembly. Lead optimization led to the discovery of 24, which showed high potency against FP-2 (IC50 = 10.0 μM), PfDHFR (IC50 = 84.1 nM), P. falciparum 3D7 (IC50 = 53.1 nM), clinical isolated strains Fab9 (IC50 = 14.2 nM) and GB4 (IC50 = 23.4 nM). The in vivo inhibition assays against P. berghei in 10 days indicated 24 had a more beneficial effect on the growth inhibition of P. berghei than artemisinin and an identical effect with pyrimethamine. Additionally, 24 moderately inhibited the proliferation of chloroquine-resistant P. falciparum Dd2 strain. Collectively, these data revealed that 24 could be an excellent lead compound as FP-2 and PfDHFR dual inhibitor for the treatment of malaria.
