Photoactivatable caged prodrugs of VEGFR-2 kinase inhibitors

, (2016)
In this study, we report on the design, synthesis, photokinetic properties and in vitro evaluation of photoactivatable caged prodrugs for the receptor tyrosine kinase VEGFR-2. Highly potent VEGFR-2 inhibitors 1 and 3 were caged by introduction of a photoremovable protecting group (PPG) to yield the caged prodrugs 4 and 5. As expected, enzymatic and cellular proliferation assays showed dramatically diminished efficacy of caged prodrugs in vitro. Upon ultraviolet (UV) irradiation of the prodrugs original inhibitory activity was completely restored and even distinctly reinforced, as was the case for the prodrug 4. The presented results are a further evidence for caging technique being an interesting approach in the protein kinase field. It could enable spatial and temporal control for the inhibition of VEGFR-2. The described photoactivatable prodrugs might be highly useful as biological probes for studying the VEGFR-2 signal transduction.

Synthesis and anti-tumor activity of marine alkaloids
Chen, Guangying,Huang, Gangliang,Zhou, Shiyang
, (2021/04/15)
Marine alkaloids were divided into five categories from the perspective of anti-tumor activity. The optimization process, chemical synthesis, anti-tumor activity evaluation and structure–activity relationship of various compounds were discussed.

With hexaketocyclohexane octahydrate as the carbon monoxide source, a novel procedure for copper-catalyzed direct double carbonylation of indoles has been established. Using alcohols as reaction partners, moderate to good yields of the desired double carbonylation products have been obtained. Wide functional group tolerance and substrate scope can be observed.

Topsentin alkaloids and their derivatives were designed, synthesized, and characterized on the basis of NMR and mass spectroscopy. The antiviral activities against tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) and anti-phytopathogenic fungus activities of these alkaloids were evaluated for the first time. Alkaloids 1c, 1e, 2b, and 2d displayed significantly higher antiviral activities against TMV than Ribavirin, emerging as new lead compounds for anti-TMV research. Further fungicidal activity tests against 14 kinds of phytopathogenic fungi revealed that these alkaloids displayed broad-spectrum fungicidal activities. Topsentin derivative 2d with 4-5 mg/kg EC50 values against Sclerotinia sclerotiorum (Lib.), Rhizoctonia solani (Kuhn), and Botrytis cinerea (Pers.) emerged as a new lead compound for fungicidal research. Current studies provide support for the application of topsentin alkaloids as novel agrochemicals.
