A series of combretastatin A-4 (CA-4) sulfamate derivatives were synthesized and their structure-activity relationship on tubulin, arylsulfatase and tumor cell antiproliferation inhibition was studied. Among them, compound 16a showed excellent potency as well as CA-4 under the same conditions against six tumor cells including HTC-116, HeLa, HepG2, MGC803, MKN45 and MCF-7 cells, respectively. Molecular docking revealed that several important hydrogen bond interactions were formed between the sulfamate group of 16a and the colchicine binding site of tubulin and steroid sulfatase respectively. Although compound 16a was less active than CA-4 in regard to its in vitro activity as an inhibitor of tubulin polymerization, it was effective as an inhibitor of arylsulfatase. This novel combretastatin A-4 sulfamate derivative has the potential to be developed as a dual inhibitor of tubulin polymerization and arylsulfatase for cancer therapy.

Infections with flaviviruses such as dengue virus (DENV) are prevalent throughout tropical regions worldwide. Replication of these viruses depends on tubulin, a host cell factor that can be targeted to obtain broad-spectrum antiviral agents. Targeting of tubulin does, however, require specific measures to avoid toxic side-effects. Herein, we report the synthesis and biological evaluation of combretastatin peptide hybrids that incorporate the cleavage site of the DENV protease to allow activation of the tubulin ligand within infected cells. The prodrug candidates have no effect on tubulin polymerization in vitro and are 20-2000-fold less toxic than combretastatin A-4. Several of the prodrug candidates were cleaved by the DENV protease in vitro with similar efficiency as the natural viral substrates. Selected compounds were studied in DENV and Zika virus replication assays and had antiviral activity at subcytotoxic concentrations.

It is well-known that cisplatin exhibited a broad spectrum of anticancer activities against many solid tumors, but its severe toxicity and drug resistance have largely limited wider clinical applications. Various strategies have been tried to discover new Pt (II) drugs with at least equal activity as well as low toxicity compared to cisplatin, but the inherent problem remains unsolved. Here we report that Pt (IV) complexes comprising a CA-4 analogue, as dual-targeting Pt (IV) prodrug, were synthesized and evaluated for anti-proliferative activity using MTT assay. Among them, complex 19 displayed most potent activity against the tested cancer cell lines, and simultaneously exhibited better cell selectivity between cancer cells and normal cells than that of cisplatin. Mechanism studies revealed that complex 19 effectively induced cell cycle arrest at the G2/M phase and dramatically disrupted the microtubule organization. Moreover, complex 19 significantly induced cell apoptosis and decreased MMP. Importantly, complex 19 significantly inhibited tumor growth in SK-OV-3 xenograft model in vivo without apparent toxicity.

Newer therapeutics can be developed in drug discovery by adopting the strategy of scaffold hopping of the privileged scaffolds from known bioactive compounds. This strategy has been widely employed in drug-discovery processes. Structure-based docking studies illustrate the basic underlying concepts and reveal that interactions of the sulfonamide group and hydrophobic interactions are crucial. On the basis of this strategy, over 60 synthetic analogues were synthesized and evaluated for their cytotoxicity against the NCI panel of 60 human cancer cell lines; the majority of these compounds exhibited promising cytotoxicity with GI50 values ranging between 18 and 50 nm. Among these compounds, (Z)-N-[2,3-dimethoxy-5-(3,4,5-trimethoxystyryl)phenyl]-4-methoxybenzenesulfonamide (7 a) and (Z)-N-[2-hydroxy-3-methoxy-6-(3,4,5-trimethoxystyryl)phenyl]-4-methoxybenzenesulfonamide (9 a) were found to be potent. Similar results were obtained against three human cancer cell lines with IC50 values ranging between 0.04 and 3.0 μm. Studies aimed at elucidating the mechanism of action of these new analogues revealed that they inhibited the in vitro polymerization of tubulin and disorganized the assembly of microtubules in HeLa and MCF-7cancer cells. Lead compounds 7 a and 9 a displayed notable in vivo antitumor activity in a HeLa tumor xenograft model. Our studies have resulted in the identification of a scaffold that can target tubulin polymerization, which should have significant potential toward the development of new antitumor drugs.

Combretastatin A-4, first isolated from the African willow tree Combretum caffrum, is a tubulin polymerization inhibitor in medicine. It was first postulated as a potential fungicide targeting fungal tubulin for plant disease control in this study. Combretastatin A-4 and its derivatives were synthesized and tested against Rhizoctonia solani and Pyricularia oryzae. Several compounds have EC50 values similar to or better than that of isoprothiolane, which is widely used for rice disease control. Structure-activity relationship study indicated the the cis configuration and hydroxyl group in combretastatin A-4 are crucial to the antifungal effect. Molecular modeling indicated the binding sites of combretastatin A-4 and carbendazim on fungal tubulin are totally different. The bioactivity of combretastatin A-4 and its derivatives against carbendazim-resistant strains was demonstrated in this study. The results provide a new approach for fungicide discovery and fungicide resistance management.

Abstract A total of 11 novel combretastatin A-4 (CA-4) analogs were designed, synthesized, and evaluated for the anti-proliferative effects in tumor cells. The compounds represent four structural classes: (i) hydrogenated derivatives, (ii) ethoxyl derivatives, (iii) amino derivatives and (iv) pro-drugs. Biological evaluations demonstrate that multiple structural features control the biological potency. Three of the compounds, sit-1, sit-2 and sit-3, have potent anti-proliferative activity against multiple cancer cell lines. Their pro-drugs were synthesized to increase water solubility. Structure-activity relationship study and Surflex-Docking were studied in this paper. These results will be useful for the design of new CA-4 analogs that are structurally related to the SAR study.
