Human sirtuin 2 (SIRT2), a member of the sirtuin family, has been considered as a promising drug target in cancer, neurodegenerative diseases, type II diabetes, and bacterial infections. Thus, SIRT2 inhibitors have been involved in effective treatment strategies for related diseases. Using previously established fluorescence-based assays for SIRT2 activity tests, the authors screened their in-house database and identified a compound, 4-(5-((3-(quinolin-5-yl)ureido)methyl) furan-2-yl)benzoic acid (20), which displayed 63 ± 5% and 35 ± 3% inhibition against SIRT2 at 100 μM and 10 μM, respectively. The structure-activity relationship (SAR) analyses of a series of synthesized (5-phenylfuran-2-yl)methanamine derivatives led to the identification of a potent compound 25 with an IC50 value of 2.47 μM, which is more potent than AGK2 (IC50 = 17.75 μM). Meanwhile, 25 likely possesses better water solubility (cLogP = 1.63 and cLogS = ?3.63). Finally, the molecular docking analyses indicated that 25 fitted well with the induced hydrophobic pocket of SIRT2.
