Structure-Guided Development of Small-Molecule PRC2 Inhibitors Targeting EZH2-EED Interaction

Disruption of EZH2-embryonic ectoderm development (EED) protein-protein interaction (PPI) is a new promising cancer therapeutic strategy. We have previously reported the discovery of astemizole, a small-molecule inhibitor targeting the EZH2-EED PPI. Herein, we report the cocrystal structure of EED in complex with astemizole at 2.15 ?. The structure elucidates the detailed binding mode of astemizole to EED and provides a structure-guided design for the discovery of a novel EZH2-EED interaction inhibitor, DC-PRC2in-01, with an affinityKdof 4.56 μM. DC-PRC2in-01 destabilizes the PRC2 complex, thereby leading to the degradation of PRC2 core proteins and the decrease of global H3K27me3 levels in cancer cells. The proliferation of PRC2-driven lymphomas cells is effectively inhibited, and the cell cycle is arrested in the G0/G1 phase. Together, these data demonstrate that DC-PRC2in-01 could be an effective chemical probe for investigating the PRC2-related physiology and pathology and providing a promising chemical scaffold for further development.

Amination of heteroaryl chlorides: Palladium catalysis or SNAr in green solvents?

The reaction of heteroaryl chlorides in the pyrimidine, pyrazine and quinazoline series with amines in water in the presence of KF results in a facile SNAr reaction and N-arylation. The reaction is less satisfactory with pyridines unless an add

Search for histamine H3 receptor antagonists with combined inhibitory potency at Nτ-methyltransferase: Ether derivatives

With the recent development of new hybrid compounds having histamine H 3 receptor antagonist with combined histamine Nτ- methyltransferase (HMT) inhibitory potency an innovative approach was described in the research of novel lead compounds modulating histaminergic neurotransmission. Several compounds containing an ether moiety derived from the recently published 4-(3-piperidinopropoxy)phenylaminoquinoline derivatives (like FUB 836), were synthesized in this study and tested for their affinity at cloned human histamine H3 (hH3) receptors and on the inhibition of rat HMT. Besides different heterocycles, e.g. nitro- or amino-substituted pyridines, quinolines, benzothiazole or pyrroline, three classes of compounds were produced: heteroaromatic 3-piperidinopropyl ethers, keto- or imino-substituted 4-(3-piperidinopropyl)phenyl ethers and 4-(3-piperidinopropyl)phenyl ethers with substituted (alkyl)aminopyridines. Whereas the (3-piperidinopropoxy)heterocycles showed only moderate activities on both test models, the 4-(3-piperidinopropoxy)phenyl derivatives were identified as potent histamine H3 receptor ligands and/or HMT inhibitors. Ki values up to 0.42 nM were found for the affinity to the hH 3 receptor. HMT inhibitory potency was identified with IC 50 values about 0.3 μM for the most potent compounds in this series. Comparison of the pyridine-containing derivatives to recently published quinoline analogues showed a decrease in potencies for the pyridines. The dual activity, H3 receptor affinity and HMT inhibition, was moderate to good. For all compounds affinities at hH3 receptors were higher than their inhibitory HMT potencies. The described new histamine H3 receptor antagonists with an ether moiety represent a further promising step in our investigations for a dual activity.
