Urea transporters (UTs) have been identified as new targets for diuretics. Functional deletion of UTs led to urea-selective urinary concentrating defects with relative salt sparing. In our previous study, a UT inhibitor with a diarylamide scaffold, which is denoted as 11a, was demonstrated as the first orally available UT inhibitor. However, the oral bioavailability of 11a was only 4.38%, which obstructed its clinical application. In this work, by replacing the nitro group of 11a with an acetyl group, 25a was obtained. Compared with 11a, 25a showed a 10 times stronger inhibitory effect on UT-B (0.14 μM vs. 1.41 μM in rats, and 0.48 μM vs. 5.82 μM in mice) and a much higher inhibition rate on UT-A1. Moreover, the metabolic stability both in vitro and in vivo and the drug-like properties (permeability and solubility) of 25a were obviously improved compared with those of 11a. Moreover, the bioavailability of 25a was 15.18%, which was 3 times higher than that of 11a, thereby resulting in significant enhancement of the diuretic activities in rats and mice. 25a showed excellent potential for development as a promising clinical diuretic candidate for targeting UTs to treat diseases that require long-term usage of diuretics, such as hyponatremia.

A class of sulfonamide-substituted diphenylpyrimidines (Sul-DPPYs) were synthesized to improve activity against the focal adhesion kinase (FAK). Most of these new Sul-DPPYs displayed moderate activity against the FAK enzyme with IC50 values of less than 100?nM; regardless, they could effectively inhibit several classes of refractory cancer cell lines with IC50 values of less than 10?μM, including the pancreatic cancer cell lines (AsPC-1, Panc-1 and BxPC-3), the NSCLC-resistant H1975 cell line, and the B lymphocyte cell line (Ramos cells). Results of flow cytometry indicated that inhibitor 7e promoted apoptosis of pancreatic cancer cells in a dose-dependent manner. In addition, it almost completely induced the apoptosis at a concentration of 10?μM. Compound 7e may be selected as a potent FAK inhibitor for the treatment of pancreatic cancer.

A series of amides, structurally related to DM232 (unifiram) and DM235 (sunifiram), characterized by a 1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrazino[2,1-a]isoindol-6(2H)-one, 1,4-diamino-cyclohexane or 1,4-diaminobenzene ring, have been synthesized and tested for cognition-enhancing activity in the mouse passive-avoidance test. Some of the compounds display good antiamnesic and procognitive activity, with higher potency than piracetam, while some cyclohexane derivatives are endowed with amnesia inducing properties.
