A carbon-11-labeled sulfamate derivative was designed and synthesized as a new potential positron-emission-tomography dual aromatase-steroid sulfatase inhibitor radiotracer for imaging of aromatase and steroid sulfatase expression in breast cancer. The ta

By introducting the steroid sulfatase inhibitory pharmacophore into aromatase inhibitor 1 (YM511), two series of single agent dual aromatase-sulfatase inhibitors (DASIs) were generated. The best DASIs in'vitro (JEG-3 cells) are 5, (IC50(aromatase) = 0.82 nM; IC 50(sulfatase) = 39 nM), and 14, (IC50(aromatase) = 0.77 nM; IC50(sulfatase) = 590 nM). X-ray crystallography of 5, and docking studies of selected compounds into an aromatase homology model and the steroid sulfatase crystal structure are presented. Both 5 and 14 inhibit aromatase and sulfatase in PMSG pretreated adult female Wistar rats potently 3 h after a single oral 10 mg/kg dose. Almost complete dual inhibition is observed for 5 but the levels were reduced to 85% (aromatase) and 72% (sulfatase) after 24 h. DASI 5 did not inhibit aldosterone synthesis. The development of a potent and selective DASI should allow the therapeutic potential of dual aromatase-sulfatase inhibition in hormone-dependent breast cancer to be assessed.

Aromatic iodination ortho to the phenolic hydroxyl reverts the activity of the ultrapotent vanilloid agonist resiniferatoxin (RTX, 1a), generating the ultrapotent antagonist 5′-iodoRTX (1b). To better understand the role of iodine in this remarkable switch of activity, a systematic investigation on the halogenation of vanillamides, a class of compounds structurally simpler than resiniferonoids, was carried out. The results showed that (a) the antagonistic activity depends on the site of halogenation and is maximal at C-6′, (b) iodine is more efficient than chlorine and bromine at reverting the agonistic activity, and (c) iodine-carbon exchange decreases antagonist activity. Iodine-induced reversal of vanilloid activity was also observed in vanillamides more powerful than capsaicin, but a poor correlation was found between agonistic and antagonistic potencies, suggesting that differences exist in the way vanillamides and their 6′-iodo derivatives bind to TRPV1.″
