The proteins Orai1 and STIM1 control store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE) into cells. SOCE is important for migration, invasion and metastasis of MDA-MB-231 human triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) cells and has been proposed as a target for cancer drug discovery. Two hit compounds from a medium throughput screen, displayed encouraging inhibition of SOCE in MDA-MB-231 cells, as measured by a Fluorescence Imaging Plate Reader (FLIPR) Ca2+ assay. Following NMR spectroscopic analysis of these hits and reassignment of their structures as 5-hydroxy-5-trifluoromethylpyrazolines, a series of analogues was prepared via thermal condensation reactions between substituted acylhydrazones and trifluoromethyl 1,3-dicarbonyl arenes. Structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies showed that small lipophilic substituents at the 2- and 3-positions of the RHS and 2-, 3- and 4-postions of the LHS terminal benzene rings improved activity, resulting in a novel class of potent and selective inhibitors of SOCE.

The transcriptional regulator FUSE binding protein 1 (FUBP1) is aberrantly upregulated in various malignancies, fulfilling its oncogenic role by the deregulation of critical genes involved in cell cycle control and apoptosis regulation. Thus, the pharmaceutical inhibition of this protein would represent an encouraging novel targeted chemotherapy. Here, we demonstrate the identification and initial optimization of a pyrazolo[1,5a]pyrimidine-based FUBP1 inhibitor derived from medium throughput screening, which interferes with the binding of FUBP1 to its single stranded target DNA FUSE. We were able to generate a new class of FUBP1 interfering molecules with in vitro and biological activity. In biophysical assays, we could show that our best inhibitor, compound 6, potently inhibits the binding of FUBP1 to the FUSE sequence with an IC50value of 11.0 μM. Furthermore, hepatocellular carcinoma cells exhibited sensitivity towards the treatment with compound 6, resulting in reduced cell expansion and induction of cell death. Finally, we provide insights into the corresponding SAR landscape, leading to a prospective enhancement in potency and cellular efficacy.

The interaction of aroyl(heteroaroyl)trifluoroacetones with thiobenzoylhydrazine may occur at both carbonyl groups. Reaction at the trifluoroacetyl group is facilitated by terminal substituents in the 1,3-dicarbonyl part, which leads can effectively conjugate with the adjacent carbonyl group. The products of condensation at the trifluoroacetyl group are 2-[2-aryl(heteroaroyl)-2-oxoethyl]-5-phenyl-2-trifluoromethyl-2,3-dihydro-1,3, 4-thiadiazoles, while condensation at the aroyl(heteroaroyl)group gave 3-aryl(heteroaryl)-5-hydroxy-1-thiobenzoyl-5-trifluoromethyl-4, 5-dihydro-1H-pyrazoles, which are not prone to tautomeric transformations in solution. 2008 Springer Science+Business Media, Inc.
