Structural optimizations and bioevaluation of N-substituted acridone derivatives as strong topoisomerase II inhibitors

, (2022/01/14)
Previously, an array of N-substituted acridone derivatives have been reported as potent topoisomerase II (topo II) inhibitors, and preliminary structure–activity relationship (SAR) outcomes revealed that the linker between 1-NH and N-methyl piperazine motif of the tricyclic acridone scaffold significantly affected their anti-proliferative potencies. To further explore the SARs of acridone-derived topo II inhibitors, a wider range of novel acridone derivatives were herein synthesized via two rounds of structural optimizations on two validated hits, E17 and E24. Initially, the linker length was optimized, and then influences of N-methyl piperazinyl moiety and disposition of three N atoms on the bioactivity were investigated. As a result, a newly developed topo II inhibitor 6 h was found to be more potent than E17 and E24, thereby serving as a tool compound for the follow-up mechanistic study. Compound 6 h functioned as a strong topo IIα/β inhibitor, caused obvious DNA damage, and induced apoptosis by triggering the loss of mitochondrial membrane potential (Δψm). Further molecular docking and MD study illustrated the favorable interactions of 6 h with both topo IIα and topo IIβ subtypes.

Cdc2-like kinase 1 (CLK1) and dual specificity tyrosine phosphorylation-regulated kinase 1A (DYRK1A) are involved in the regulation of alternative pre-mRNA splicing. Dysregulation of this process has been linked to cancer progression and neurodegenerative diseases, making CLK1 and DYRK1A important therapeutic targets. Here we describe the synthesis of new pyrido[3,4-g]quinazoline derivatives and the evaluation of the inhibitory potencies of these compounds toward CDK5, CK1, GSK3, CLK1 and DYRK1A. Introduction of aminoalkylamino groups at the 2-position resulted in several compounds with low nanomolar affinity and selective inhibition of CLK1 and/or DYRK1A. Their evaluation on several immortalized or cancerous cell lines showed varying degree of cell viability reduction. Co-crystal structures of CLK1 with two of the most potent compounds revealed two alternative binding modes of the pyrido[3,4-g]quinazoline scaffold that can be exploited for future inhibitor design.

A novel 4-aminoquinoline derivative [(S)-7-chloro-N-(4-methyl-1-(4-methyl-piperazin-1-yl)pentan-2-yl)-quinolin-4-amine triphosphate] exhibiting curative activity against chloroquine-resistant malaria parasites has been identified for preclinical development as a blood schizonticidal agent. The lead molecule selected after detailed structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies has good solid-state properties and promising activity against in vitro and in vivo experimental malaria models. The in vitro absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME) parameters indicate a favorable drug-like profile.

Synthesis and antitumor activity of 5-bromo-7-azaindolin-2-one derivatives containing a 2,4-dimethyl-1H-pyrrole-3-carboxamide moiety

We report herein the design and synthesis of a series of novel 5-bromo-7-azaindolin-2-one derivatives containing a 2,4-dimethyl-1H-pyrrole-3-carboxamide moiety. These newly synthesized derivatives were evaluated for in vitro activity against selected cancer cell lines by MTT assay. Results revealed that some compounds exhibit broad-spectrum antitumor potency, and the most active compound 23p (IC50: 2.357-3.012 μM) was found more potent than Sunitinib (IC50: 31.594-49.036 μM) against HepG2, A549 and Skov-3, respectively.

A new N-methylpiperazine-functionalized polyacrylonitrile fiber has been developed to catalyze the Gewald reaction between 2,5-dihydroxy-1,4-dithiane and activated nitriles to afford 3-substituted 2-aminothiophenes in good to excellent yields (65-91%). Low catalyst loading (8.0 mol%), simple procedure, high yields, excellent recyclability, and reusability (up to 10 times with minimal loss of catalytic activity) are attractive features of this fiber catalyst.

A series of peptidyl α-ketoamides with the general structure Cbz-l-Leu-d,l-AA-CONH-R were synthesized and evaluated as inhibitors for the cysteine proteases calpain I, calpain II, and cathepsin B. Nucleobases, methylpiperazine, and dimethylaminoalkyl groups were incorporated into the primed region of the inhibitors to generate compounds that potentially cross the blood-brain barrier. Two of these compounds (Cbz-Leu-d,l-Abu-CONH-(CH 2)3-adenin-9-yl and Cbz-Leu-d,l-Abu-CONH-(CH 2)3-(4-methylpiperazin-1-yl) have been shown to have useful concentrations in the brain in animals. The best inhibitor for calpain I was Cbz-Leu-d,l-Abu-CONH-(CH2)3-2-methoxyadenin-9-yl (Ki = 23 nM), and the best inhibitor for calpain II was Cbz-Leu-d,l-Phe-CONH-(CH2)3-adenin-9-yl (Ki = 68 nM). On the basis of the crystal structure obtained with heterocyclic peptidyl α-ketoamides, we have improved inhibitor potency by introducing a small hydrophobic group on the adenine ring. These inhibitors have good potential to be used in the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases.
Cocrystal structures of primed side-extending α-ketoamide inhibitors reveal novel calpain-inhibitor aromatic interactions

Calpains are intracellular cysteine proteases that catalyze the cleavage of target proteins in response to Ca2+ signaling. When Ca2+ homeostasis is disrupted, calpain overactivation causes unregulated proteolysis, which can contribute to diseases such as postischemic injury and cataract formation. Potent calpain inhibitors exist, but of these many cross-react with other cysteine proteases and will need modification to specifically target calpain. Here, we present crystal structures of rat calpain 1 protease core (μI-II) bound to two α-ketoamide-based calpain inhibitors containing adenyl and piperazyl primed-side extensions. An unexpected aromatic-stacking interaction is observed between the primed-side adenine moiety and the Trp298 side chain. This interaction increased the potency of the inhibitor toward μI-II and heterodimeric m-calpain. Moreover, stacking orients the adenine such that it can be used as a scaffold for designing novel primed-side address regions, which could be incorporated into future inhibitors to enhance their calpain specificity.

, p. 2131 - 2135 (2007/10/03)
The synthesis and biological evaluation of novel cycloheptaquinoline antagonists of the human H3 receptor are described. Two series of compounds, bearing either an amino substituent or an alkyne linker at the 11-position, were investigated. Modifications of the amino substituents, optimization of chain length and the effect of conformational restraints are described. Several compounds with high affinity and selectivity for the H3 receptor were discovered.
