Galloyl esters of trans-stilbenes are inhibitors of FASN with anticancer activity on non-small cell lung cancer cells

Fatty acid synthase (FASN) is a lipogenic enzyme that is selectively upregulated in malignant cells. There is growing consensus on the oncogenicity of FASN-driven lipogenesis and the potential of FASN as a druggable target in cancer. Here, we report the synthesis and FASN inhibitory activities of two novel galloyl esters of trans-stilbene EC1 and EC5. Inhibition of FASN was accompanied by a loss in AKT activation and profound apoptosis in several non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells at the growth inhibitory concentrations of EC1 and EC5. Both FASN and phospho-AKT levels were concurrently downregulated. However, addition of a lipid concentrate to the treated cells reinstated cell viability and reversed the loss of FASN and AKT protein levels, thus recapitulating the causal relationship between FASN inhibition and the loss in cell viability.

Regioselective Hydroxylation of Stilbenes by Engineered Cytochrome P450 from Thermobifida fusca YX

Since the past decades, the plant stilbenoid resveratrol has gained significant attention of the general public as well as the research community due to its versatile medicinal properties. Apart from resveratrol, there is also an increasing interest in other plant stilbenoids because of their different potential biological activities. In order to meet the increasing demand for stilbenoids, alternative and sustainable approaches for their production are needed. We identified the cytochrome P450 monooxygenase 154E1 from Thermobifida fusca YX (CYP154E1) which enables the synthesis of (E)-4,4′-dihydroxystilbene via direct double hydroxylation of (E)-stilbene. The construction of a triple mutant led to a more than six-fold increased catalytic efficiency compared to the wild type enzyme. CYP154E1 and variants thereof accepted not only (E)-stilbene but also possessed remarkable activity towards ortho- and meta-substituted hydroxystilbenes leading to resveratrol, (E)-2,4′-dihydroxystilbene, (E)-2,4′,5-trihydroxystilbene and (E)-3,4′-dihydroxystilbene. The combination of protein engineering and the use of methyl-β-cyclodextrin as substrate solubilizing agent resulted in product titers of up to 4.2 g L?1 and enzyme total turnover numbers (TTN) of up to 20,000.

A facile and rapid access to resveratrol derivatives and their radioprotective activity

A facile and rapid access to resveratrol derivatives has been achieved based on palladium-catalyzed oxidative Heck reaction of aryl boronic acids with styrenes followed by demethylation in moderate to good yields. A series of resveratrol derivatives with various functional groups has been synthesized easily. The radioprotective activity of synthesized compounds has also been evaluated using rat thymocytes. The results revealed that some resveratrol derivatives efficiently protected the thymocytes from radiation-induced apoptosis.

Synthesis and Protein-Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitory Activity of Polyhydroxylated Stilbene Analogues of Piceatannol

A series of hydroxylated trans-stilbene related to the antileukemic natural product trans-3,3',4,5'-tetrahydroxy stilbene (piceatannol) (1) has been prepared and tested for inhibition of the lymphoid cell lineage-specific protein-tyrosine kinase p56lck, which plays an important role in lymphocyte proliferation and immune function.A number of the analogues displayed enhanced enzyme inhibitory activity relative to the natural product.Reduction of the double bond bridging the two aromatic rings and benzylation of the phenolic hydroxyl groups was found to decrease activity significantly.The most potent compounds in the series proved to be trans-3,3',5,5'-tetrahydroxystilbene, trans-3,3',5-trihydroxystilbene, and trans-3,4,4'-trihydroxystilbene.

Synthesis and nematocidal activity of hydroxystilbenes

Various (E)-hydroxystilbenes were synthesized from (E)/(Z) mixtures of methoxystilbenes through a new (Z)-(E) isomerization method followed by demethylation. The nematocidal activity appears when methoxystilbenes are demethylated to hydroxystilbenes. For this activity, a hydroxy group at the C-2 or C-3 position is necessary. Thus, 2-hydroxy-, 3-hydroxy-, 2,6-dihydroxy-, 3,4-dihydroxy-, 3,5-dihydroxy-, 2,2'-dihydroxy-, 3,3'-dihydroxy-, 3,4'dihydroxy-, 2-hydroxy-4-methoxy-, 5-hydroxy-2-methoxy-, 2-hydroxy-6-methoxy-, 6-allyloxy-2-hydroxy-, 3-hydroxy-5-methoxy-, and 5-allyloxy-3-hydroxystilbenes showed rather potent nematocidal activity. The activity of 5-allyloxy-3-hydroxystilbene was the strongest [minimal lethal concentration (MLC) = 30 μM]. The activities of the (E) and (Z) isomers were comparable. The activities were also retained, though they were weaker, in the dihydro derivatives, hydroxybibenzyls.
