The multifactorial nature of chemotherapy failure in controlling cancer is often associated with the occurrence of multidrug resistance (MDR), a phenomenon likely related to the increased expression of members of the ATP binding cassette (ABC) transporter superfamily. In this respect, the most extensively characterized MDR transporters include ABCB1 (also known as MDR1 or P-glycoprotein) and ABCC1 (also known as MRP1) whose inhibition remains a priority to circumvent drug resistance. Herein, we report how the simple galloyl benzamide scaffold can be easily and properly decorated for the preparation of either MRP1 or P-gp highly selective inhibitors. In particular, some gallamides and pyrogallol-1-monomethyl ethers showed remarkable affinity and selectivity toward MRP1. On the other hand, trimethyl ether galloyl anilides, with few exceptions, exhibited moderate to very high and selective P-gp inhibition.
Novel dual-targeting benzimidazole urea inhibitors of DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV possessing potent antibacterial activity: Intelligent design and evolution through the judicious use of structure-guided design and stucture-activity relationships

The discovery of new antibacterial agents with novel mechanisms of action is necessary to overcome the problem of bacterial resistance that affects all currently used classes of antibiotics. Bacterial DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV are well-characterized clinically validated targets of the fluoroquinolone antibiotics which exert their antibacterial activity through inhibition of the catalytic subunits. Inhibition of these targets through interaction with their ATP sites has been less clinically successful. The discovery and characterization of a new class of low molecular weight, synthetic inhibitors of gyrase and topoisomerase IV that bind to the ATP sites are presented. The benzimidazole ureas are dual targeting inhibitors of both enzymes and possess potent antibacterial activity against a wide spectrum of relevant pathogens responsible for hospital- and community-acquired infections. The discovery and optimization of this novel class of antibacterials by the use of structure-guided design, modeling, and structure-activity relationships are described. Data are presented for enzyme inhibition, antibacterial activity, and in vivo efficacy by oral and intravenous administration in two rodent infection models.
