Synthesis and in Vitro Evaluation of Novel 5-Nitroindole Derivatives as c-Myc G-Quadruplex Binders with Anticancer Activity

Lead-optimization strategies for compounds targeting c-Myc G-quadruplex (G4) DNA are being pursued to develop anticancer drugs. Here, we investigate the structure-activity- relationship (SAR) of a newly synthesized series of molecules based on the pyrrolidine-substituted 5-nitro indole scaffold to target G4 DNA. Our synthesized series allows modulation of flexible elements with a structurally preserved scaffold. Biological and biophysical analyses illustrate that substituted 5-nitroindole scaffolds bind to the c-Myc promoter G-quadruplex. These compounds downregulate c-Myc expression and induce cell-cycle arrest in the sub-G1/G1 phase in cancer cells. They further increase the concentration of intracellular reactive oxygen species. NMR spectra show that three of the newly synthesized compounds interact with the terminal G-quartets (5′- and 3′-ends) in a 2 : 1 stoichiometry.

Design, synthesis and biological evaluation of novel Pseudomonas aeruginosa DNA gyrase B inhibitors

In the present study, we attempted to develop a novel class of compounds active against Pseudomonas aeruginosa (Pa) by exploring the pharmaceutically well exploited enzyme targets. Since, lack of Pa gyrase B crystal structures, Thermus thermophilus gyrase B in complex with novobiocin (1KIJ) was used as template to generate model structure by performing homology modeling. Further the best model was validated and used for high-throughput virtual screening, docking and dynamics simulations using the in-house database for identification of Pa DNA gyrase B inhibitors. This study led to an identification of three lead molecules with IC50 values in range of 6.25–15.6 μM against Pa gyrase supercoiling assay. Lead-1 optimization and expansion resulted in 15 compounds. Among the synthesized compounds six compounds were shown good enzyme inhibition than Lead-1 (IC50 6.25 μM). Compound 13 emerged as the most potential compound exhibiting inhibition of Pa gyrase supercoiling with an IC50 of 2.2 μM; and in-vitro Pa activity with MIC of 8 μg/mL in presence of efflux pump inhibitor; hence could be further developed as novel inhibitor for Pa gyrase B.

First Nondiscriminating Translocator Protein Ligands Produced from a Carbazole Scaffold

Development of neuroinflammation agents targeting the translocator protein (TSPO) has been hindered by a common single nucleotide polymorphism (A147T) at which TSPO ligands commonly lose affinity. To this end, carbazole acetamide scaffolds were synthesized and structure activity relationships elaborated to explore the requirements for high-affinity binding to both TSPO wild type (WT) and the polymorphic TSPO A147T. This study reports high binding affinity and nondiscriminating TSPO ligands.

Design, synthesis and evaluation of novel 19F magnetic resonance sensitive protein tyrosine phosphatase inhibitors

Fluorine is a highly attractive element for both medicinal chemistry and imaging technologies. To facilitate protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTP)-targeted drug discovery and imaging-guided PTP research on fluorine, several highly potent and 19F MR sensitive PTP inhibitors were discovered through a structure-based focused library strategy.

Synthesis and invitro Evaluation of West Nile Virus Protease Inhibitors Based on the 2-{6-[2-(5-Phenyl-4H-{1,2,4]triazol-3-ylsulfanyl)acetylamino]benzothiazol-2-ylsulfanyl}acetamide Scaffold

In recent years, clinical symptoms resulting from West Nile virus (WNV) infection have worsened in severity, with an increased frequency in neuroinvasive diseases among the elderly. As there are presently no successful therapies against WNV for use in humans, continual efforts to develop new chemotherapeutics against this virus are highly desired. The viral NS2B-NS3 protease is a promising target for viral inhibition due to its importance in viral replication and its unique substrate preference. In this study, a WNV NS2B-NS3 protease inhibitor with a 2-{6-[2-(5-phenyl-4H-[1,2,4]triazol-3-ylsulfanyl)acetylamino]benzothiazol-2-ylsulfanyl}acetamide scaffold was identified during screening. Optimization of this initial hit by synthesis and screening of a focused compound library with this scaffold led to the identification of a novel uncompetitive inhibitor (1a24, IC50=3.4±0.2μM) of the WNV NS2B-NS3 protease. Molecular docking of 1a24 into the WNV protease showed that the compound interferes with productive interactions of the NS2B cofactor with the NS3 protease and is an allosteric inhibitor of the WNV NS3 protease.

Structure-activity relationships of 2′,5′-oligoadenylate analogue modifications of prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) antagonists

□ Prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) is an ideal biomarker for prostate cancer. A previously reported 2-5A conjugate RBI1033 (3) showed binding affinity more than 10 times higher than the parent urea-based compound (S)-2-(3-((S)-5-amino-1-carboxypentyl)ureido) pentanedioic acid (1). The purpose of this work is to further optimize the structure of 3 to identify highly selective ligands of PSMA. It was found that conjugates having 2-5A in their structure showed extraordinary improved binding affinity to PSMA compared with compound 1. Removal of 2-5A significantly reduced its biological activity. The results will provide a path to agents for targeted imaging and treatment of prostate cancer.

The design and synthesis of 1,4-substituted piperazine derivatives as triple reuptake inhibitors

Novel 1,4-substituted piperazine derivatives 5, Series A and B were designed by fragment analysis and molecular modification of 4 selected piperazine-containing compounds which possess antidepressant activity. We synthesized new 39 analogues of Series A and 10 compounds of Series B, respectively. The antidepressant screening against DA, NE, and serotonin neurotransmitter uptake inhibition was carried out using the Neurotransmitter Transporter Uptake Assay Kit. The compounds in Series B showed relatively higher reuptake inhibitory activity for SERT, NET, and DAT than those in Series A. The length of spacer between the central piperazine core and the terminal phenyl ring substituted at the piperazine ring in Series B seems to exert an important role in the activity.

CLEFMA - An anti-proliferative curcuminoid from structure-activity relationship studies on 3,5-bis(benzylidene)-4-piperidones

3,5-Bis(benzylidene)-4-piperidones are being advanced as synthetic analogs of curcumin for anti-cancer and anti-inflammatory properties. We performed structure-activity relationship studies, by testing several synthesized 3,5-bis(benzylidene)-4-piperidones for anti-proliferative activity in lung adenocarcinoma H441 cells. Compared to the lead compound 1, or 3,5-bis(2-fluorobenzylidene)-4-piperidone, five compounds were found to be more potent (IC50 50 >50 μM). Based on the observations, we synthesized 4-[3,5-bis(2-chlorobenzylidene-4-oxo-piperidine-1-yl)-4-oxo-2- butenoic acid] (29 or CLEFMA) as a novel analog of 1. CLEFMA was evaluated for anti-proliferative activity in H441 cells, and was found to be several folds more potent than compound 1. We did not find apoptotic cell population in flow cytometry, and the absence of apoptosis was confirmed by the lack of caspase cleavage. The electron microscopy of H441cells indicated that CLEFMA and compound 1 induce autophagic cell death that was inhibited by specific autophagy inhibitor 3-methyladenine. The results suggest that the potent and novel curcuminoid, CLEFMA, offers an alternative mode of cell death in apoptosis-resistant cancers.

Rapid assembly and in situ screening of bidentate inhibitors of protein tyrosine phosphatases

We have successfully designed and synthesized a small library of protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTP) inhibitors, in which the so-called "click chemistry" or Cu(I)-catalyzed 1,3-dipolar alkyne-azide coupling reaction was carried out for rapid assembly of 66 different bidentate compounds. Subsequent in situ enzymatic screening revealed a potential PTP1B inhibitor (IC50 = 4.7 μM) which is 10-100 fold more potent than other PTPs.
