Hedgehog (Hh) signaling plays an important role in cell signaling of embryonic development and adult tissue homeostasis. In vertebrates, the hh gene encodes three different unique proteins: sonic hedgehog (Shh), desert hedgehog (Dhh) and indian hedgehog (Ihh). Disruption of the Hh signaling pathway leads to severe disorders in the development of vertebrates whereas aberrant activation of the Hh pathway has been associated with several malignancies including Gorlin syndrome (a disorder predisposing to basal cell carcinoma, medulloblastoma and rhabdomyosarcoma), prostate, pancreatic and breast cancers. In vivo evidence suggests the antagonism of excessive Hh signaling provides a route to unique mechanism-based anti-cancer therapies. Recently the small molecule SANT-2 was identified as a potent antagonist of Hh-signaling pathway. Here, we describe the synthesis, SAR studies as well as biological evaluation of SANT-2 and its analogues. Fifteen SANT-2 derivatives were synthesized and analyzed for their interference with the expression of the Hh target gene Gli1 in a reporter gene assay. By comparison of structure and activity important molecular descriptors for Gli inhibition could be identified. Furthermore we identified derivative TC-132 that was slightly more potent than the parent compound SANT-2. Selected compounds were tested for Hh related teratogenic effects in the small teleost model medaka. Albeit Gli expression has indicated a 16-fold higher Hh-inhibiting activity than observed for the plant alkaloid cyclopamine, none of the tested compounds were able to induce the cyclopamine-specific phenotype in the medaka assay.
Thioimides: New reagents for effective synthesis of thiolesters from carboxylic acids

, p. 7783 - 7784 (2008/12/22)
(Chemical Equation Presented) Thioimides and carboxylic acids are used as the precursors for the convenient synthesis of thiolesters in the phosphine mediated process. Cyclic and acyclic thioimides show equal efficiency, furnishing the desired thiolesters in good to excellent yields. The general, highly efficient transformation tolerates various functional groups and the resulting thiolesters are obtained in high purity after a simple separation. The reaction scope has been demonstrated on the preparation of several highly functionalized target molecules.

A series of new substituted benzamides were synthesized and tested in vitro for their antibacterial activity against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria and as well for antifungal activity. The compounds 8i and 9 showed better activity among the different benzamides synthesized. The structural characteristics governing antibacterial activities of substituted benzamides were studied using QSAR methodology. The results showed that the antimicrobial activity could be modeled using the topological descriptors, molecular connectivity indices (2χv and 2χ) and Kiers shape index (κα1). The low residual activity and high cross-validated r2 values (rcv2) observed indicated the predictive ability of the developed QSAR models.

Novel Non-Nucleoside Inhibitors of HIV-1 Reverse Transcriptase. 2. Tricyclic Pyridobenzoxazepinones and Dibenzoxazepinones

Dibenzoxazepin-11(10H)-ones (III), pyridobenzoxazepin-6(5H)-ones (IV), and pyridobenzoxazepin-5(6H)-ones (V) were found to inhibit human immunodeficiency virus type 1 reverse transcriptase with IC50 values as 19 nM.A-ring substitution has a profound effect on activity, with appropriate substituents at the positions ortho and para to the lactam nitrogen providing dramatically enhanced potency.Substitution in the C-ring is generally neutral or detrimental to activity.Although a C-ring amino substituent at the position meta to the lactam carbonyl is generally beneficial to activity, it has essentially no effect when the A-ring is optimally substituted.Like the dipyridodiazepinone nevirapine, compounds III-V are specific for HIV-1 RT, exhibiting no inhibitory activity against HIV-2 RT or other virial reverse transcriptase enzymes.
