Rad51/BRCA2 disruptors inhibit homologous recombination and synergize with olaparib in pancreatic cancer cells

Olaparib is a PARP inhibitor (PARPi). For patients bearing BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutations, olaparib is approved to treat ovarian cancer and in clinical trials to treat breast and pancreatic cancers. In BRCA2-defective patients, PARPi inhibits DNA single-strand break repair, while BRCA2 mutations hamper double-strand break repair. Recently, we identified a series of triazole derivatives that mimic BRCA2 mutations by disrupting the Rad51-BRCA2 interaction and thus double-strand break repair. Here, we have computationally designed, synthesized, and tested over 40 novel derivatives. Additionally, we designed and conducted novel biological assays to characterize how they disrupt the Rad51-BRCA2 interaction and inhibit double-strand break repair. These compounds synergized with olaparib to target pancreatic cancer cells with functional BRCA2. This supports the idea that small organic molecules can mimic genetic mutations to improve the profile of anticancer drugs for precision medicine. Moreover, this paradigm could be exploited in other genetic pathways to discover innovative anticancer targets and drug candidates.

Synthesis and SAR of novel capsazepine analogs with significant anti-cancer effects in multiple cancer types

We previously demonstrated that capsazepine (CPZ), a synthetic transient receptor potential Vanilloid subtype 1 (TRPV1) antagonist, has significant anti-cancer effects in vivo. The purpose of this study was to develop more potent analogs based upon CPZ pharmacophore and structure–activity relationships (SAR) across analogs. We generated 30 novel compounds and screened for their anti-proliferative effects in cultured HeLa cervical cancer cells. Cell viability assays identified multiple compounds with IC50s 50 50s of 1–2.5 μM in HSC-3and PC-3cells. Thus, we propose that these novel CPZ analogs may serve as efficacious therapeutic agents against multiple tumor types that warrant further development for clinical application.

SAR studies of capsazepinoid bronchodilators 3: The thiourea part (coupling region) and the 2-(4-chlorophenyl)ethyl moiety (C-region)

Certain derivatives and analogues of capsazepine are potent in vitro inhibitors of bronchoconstriction in human small airways. During an investigation of the dependency of the potency on the structural features of the capsazepinoids in the thiourea moiety (coupling region) and the 2-(4-chlorophenyl)ethyl moiety (C-region), it was revealed that capsazepinoids with a thiourea or an amide link between the B-ring and the C-region in general have a good bronchorelaxing activity, while urea is a less attractive choice. Further, it was shown that 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinolines with a 2-(phenyl)ethyl derivative as the C-region are considerably more potent than those with an octyl group, while 2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-2-benzazepines were found to be more insensitive to the nature of the C-region.
