Trifluoromethyl ketones were found to be inhibitors of histone deacetylases (HDACs). Optimization of this series led to the identification of submicromolar inhibitors such as 20 that demonstrated antiproliferative effects against the HT1080 and MDA 435 cell lines.

Epoxy isonitrile containing natural products often possess specific and potent antibacterial activity against Gram-positive pathogens. This scaffold, however, is extremely labile under acidic and basic conditions, undergoing a Payne rearrangement to produce a stable epoxy ketone metabolite and releasing hydrogen cyanide. We synthesized and performed biological assays with epoxy ketone containing metabolites and identified that the epoxy isonitrile moiety is pertinent for biological activity. Serendipitously, we discovered an α,β-unsaturated epoxy ketone analogue that exhibited moderate activity against Staphylococcus aureus.

Human neutrophils are the most abundant leukocytes and have been considered as the first line of defence in the innate immune system. Selective imaging of live neutrophils will facilitate the in situ study of neutrophils in infection or inflammation events as well as clinical diagnosis. However, small-molecule-based probes for the discrimination of live neutrophils among different granulocytes in human blood have yet to be reported. Herein, we report the first fluorescent probe NeutropG for the specific distinction and imaging of active neutrophils. The selective staining mechanism of NeutropG is elucidated as metabolism-oriented live-cell distinction (MOLD) through lipid droplet biogenesis with the help of ACSL and DGAT. Finally, NeutropG is applied to accurately quantify neutrophil levels in fresh blood samples by showing a high correlation with the current clinical method.

Adenosine is an immunosuppressive factor in the tumor microenvironment mainly through activation of the A2A adenosine receptor (A2AR), which is a mechanism hijacked by tumors to escape immune surveillance. Small-molecule A2AR antagonists are being evaluat

Based on fragment-based virtual screening and bioisoterism strategies, novel indazole and pyrazolo[3,4-b] pyridine derivatives as HDACs inhibitors were designed, synthesized and evaluated. Most of these compounds displayed good to excellent inhibitory activities against HDACs, especially compounds 15k and 15m were identified as potent inhibitors of HDAC1 (IC50 = 2.7 nM and IC50 = 3.1 nM), HDAC2 (IC50 = 4.2 nM and IC50 = 3.6 nM) and HDAC8 (IC50 = 3.6 nM and IC50 = 3.3 nM). Further anti-proliferation assays revealed that compounds 15k and 15m showed better anti-proliferative activities against HCT-116 and HeLa cells than positive control SAHA. The western blot analysis results indicated that compounds 15k and 15m noticeably up-regulated the level of acetylated α-tubulin and histone H3. In addition, the two compounds 15k and 15m could arrest cell cycle in G2/M phase and promote cell apoptosis, which was similar as the reference compound SAHA. Through the molecular docking and dynamic studies, the potent HDAC inhibitory activities mainly caused by van der Waals and electrostatic interactions with the HDACs.

Abstract In our study, three series of hydroxamate, 2-aminobenzamide, and trifluoromethyl ketone analogues have been designed and synthesized. The synthesized compounds were investigated for their in vitro antiproliferative activities using the MTT-based assay against three human cancer cell lines including A549, NCI-H661, and U937. Most analogues exhibited higher antiproliferative activities against human acute myeloid leukemia cell U937 than the other two human lung cancer cell lines. Furthermore, the compounds were examined against HDAC1, 2, and 8 isoforms. Docking study of compounds 6h, 9b, and 10a suggested that they might bind tightly to the binding pocket of HDAC2 and/or HDAC8. The results suggest that these compounds might have potential as lead compounds for the development of anti-tumor drugs with HDACs inhibitory activities.

Cancer treatment suffers from limitations that have a major impact on the patient's quality of life and survival. In the case of chemotherapy, the systemic distribution of cytotoxic drugs reduces their efficacy and causes severe side effects due to nonselective toxicity. Photopharmacology allows a novel approach to address these problems because it employs external, local activation of chemotherapeutic agents by using light. The development of photoswitchable histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors as potential antitumor agents is reported herein. Analogues of the clinically used chemotherapeutic agents vorinostat, panobinostat, and belinostat were designed with a photoswitchable azobenzene moiety incorporated into their structure. The most promising compound exhibits high inhibitory potency in the thermodynamically less stable cis form and a significantly lower activity for the trans form, both in terms of HDAC activity and proliferation of HeLa cells. This approach offers a clear prospect towards local photoactivation of HDAC inhibition to avoid severe side effects in chemotherapy.

The interactions of gefitinib (Iressa) in EGFR are hydrogen bonding and van der Waals forces through quinazoline and aniline rings. However the morpholino group of gefitinib is poorly ordered due to its weak electron density. A series of novel piperazino analogues of gefitinib where morpholino group substituted with various piperazino groups were designed and synthesized. Most of them indicated significant anti-cancer activities against human cancer cell lines. In particular, compounds 52-54 showed excellent potency against cancer cells. Convergent synthetic approach has been developed for the synthesis of gefitinib intermediate which can lead to gefitinib as well as numerous analogues.

A series of 1,3,4-thiadiazole-containing hydroxamic acids, in accord with the common pharmacophore of histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors (a Zn2+ binding moiety-a linker-a surface recognition motif), was identified as submicromolar HDAC inhibitors by our group. In this study, we continued our efforts to develop 1,3,4-thiadiazole bearing hydroxamate analogues by modifying the surface recognition motif. We found that 1,3,4-thiadiazoles having a heteroaromatic substituent showed better HDAC inhibitory activity in enzymatic assay and higher antiproliferative potency in cellular assay compared to SAHA.

The development of "molecular rulers" would allow one to quantitatively locate the penetration depth of intercalants within lipid bilayers. To this end, an attempt was made to correlate the 13C NMR chemical shift of polarizable "reporter" carbons (e.g., carbonyls) of intercalants within DMPC liposomal bilayers - with the polarity it experiences, and with its Angstrom distance from the interface. This requires families of molecules with two "reporter carbons" separated by a known distance, residing at various depths/polarities within the bilayer. For this purpose, two homologous series of dicarbonyl compounds, methyl n-oxooctadecanoates and the corresponding n-oxooctadecanoic acids (n = 4-16), were synthesized. To assist in assignment and detection several homologs in each system were prepared 13C-enriched in both carbonyls. Within each family, the number of carbons and functional groups remains the same, with the only difference being the location of the second ketone carbonyl along the fatty acid chain. Surprisingly, the head groups within each family are not anchored near the lipid-water interface, nor are they even all located at the same depth. Nevertheless, using an iterative best fit analysis of the data points enables one to obtain an exponential curve. The latter gives substantial insight into the correlation between polarity (measured in terms of the Reichardt polarity parameter, ET(30)) and penetration depth into the liposomal bilayer. Still missing from this curve are data points in the moderate polarity range.
