Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) inhibitors are the first and most successful drugs designed to exploit the concept of synthetic lethality (SL) between PARP-1 and BRCA1/2, which provides a novel strategy for tumor treatment. However, narrowed indications and resistance to PARP-1 inhibitors have hampered their further clinical application. Inducing “BRCAness” by targeting other targets, which will directly or indirectly disturb the homologous recombination (HR) repair pathway of double-strand DNA breaks (DSBs), is a promising strategy for expanding the clinical application of PARP-1 inhibitors and overcoming resistance to these inhibitors. Tankyrase1/2 (TNKS1/2) are involved in the nonhomologous end-joining (NHEJ) DNA repair pathway by regulating Wnt/β-catenin signaling. TNKS1/2 can also induce a “BRCAness” phenotype by regulating Wnt signaling, which increases the sensitivity of tumor cells with BRCA proficiency to PARP-1 inhibitors. These results suggest that cotargeting PARP1/2 and TNKS1/2 not only exerts a synergistic effect in the treatment of tumors but also provides a novel strategy for expanding the clinical application of PARP-1 inhibitors and overcoming resistance to PARP-1 inhibitors. Therefore, a series of dual PARP-1/2 and TNKS1/2 inhibitors were rationally designed, synthesized, and evaluated for their pharmacological properties. Among these candidates, compound I-9 showed excellent inhibitory activity as it inhibited PARP-1/2 and TNKS1/2 with IC50 values of 0.25 nM, 1.2 nM, 13.5 nM and 4.15 nM, respectively. I-9 exhibited favorable synergistic antitumor efficacy in both BRCA-mutant and BRCA-wild-type cancer lines. Moreover, I-9 exerted prominent dose-dependent antitumor activity in an HCT116 cell-derived xenograft model and was significantly more efficacious than olaparib and E7449. Overall, the present study indicated that I-9, a dual PARP-1/2 and TNKS1/2 inhibitor, is a novel and promising agent for cancer therapy.
Applicability of aluminum amalgam to the reduction of arylnitro groups

An array of arylnitro compounds with various functionality were treated with freshly-prepared aluminum amalgam in THF/water solution and resulted in the corresponding arylamines. The Al(Hg)-mediated reductions are relatively rapid with consumption of the amalgam and disappearance of starting material occurring over 20–30 min. The workup of the reductions involves only removal of the insoluble by-products by filtration followed by concentration. Only in some cases is chromatography required to secure the pure product. The desired arylamines are furnished in quantities of 25–100 mg, which in some cases, could be taken on to the next reaction without further purification. Reductions of 4-nitrobenzyl derivatives of carbohydrates or nucleosides were selective in affording the corresponding 4-aminobenzyl products. To show applicability in click chemistry, selected aminobenzyl products are directly azidated to yield products that were then used in click reactions to afford the corresponding 1,2,3-triazoles.

BTK is an effective target for the treatment of B-cell malignant tumors and autoimmune diseases. In this work, a series of 2-phenyl pyrimidine derivatives were prepared and their preliminary in vitro activities on B-cell leukemia cells as well as the BTK enzyme were determined. The results showed that compound 11g displayed the best inhibitory activity on BTK with an inhibition rate of 82.76% at 100 nM and excellent anti-proliferation activity on three B-cell leukemia lines (IC50 = 3.66 μM, 6.98 μM, and 5.39 μM against HL60, Raji and Ramos, respectively). Besides, the flow cytometry analysis results indicated that 11g inhibited the proliferation of the Raji cells in a dose- and time-dependent manner, and blocked the Ramos cells at the G0/G1 phase, which is in accordance with the positive control ibrutinib. The mechanism investigation demonstrated that 11g could inhibit the phosphorylation of BTK and its downstream substrate phospholipase γ2 (PLCγ2). All these results showed that 11g was a promising lead compound that merited further optimization as a novel class of BTK inhibitor for the treatment of B-cell lymphoblastic leukemia.

Vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-2 (VEGFR-2) plays a crucial role in cancer angiogenesis. In the current study, a series of novel pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine based-compounds was designed and synthesized as VEGFR-2 inhibitors, in accordance to the structure activity relationship (SAR) studies of known type II VEGFR-2 inhibitors. The newly synthesized compounds were evaluated for their ability to inhibit VEGFR-2 kinase enzyme in vitro. All the tested compounds demonstrated highly potent dose-related VEGFR-2 inhibition with IC50 values in nanomolar range. Among these compounds, pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine derivatives carrying biaryl urea moieties (12d and 15c) exhibited IC50 values of 11.9 and 13.6 nM respectively. Additionally, most of the newly synthesized final compounds were tested on 60 human cancer cell lines. Docking of these compounds into the inactive conformation of VEGFR-2 was performed which showed comparable binding modes to that of the FDA approved VEGFR-2 kinase inhibitors. These newly discovered potent kinase inhibitors could be considered as potential candidates for the development of new targeted anticancer agent.
