In the angiogenesis process, integrins, which are members of a family of cell surface transmembrane receptors, play a critical role particularly in blood vessel formation and the local release of vascular growth factors. Thyroid hormones such as L-thyroxine (T4) and 3,5,3′-triiodo-L-thyronine (T3) promote angiogenesis and tumor cell proliferation via integrin αvβ3 receptor. At or near an arginine-glycine-aspartate (RGD) recognition site on the binding pocket of integrin αvβ3, tetraiodothyroacetic acid (tetrac, a deaminated derivative of T4) is a thyrointegrin receptor antagonist and blocks the actions of T3 and T4 as well as different growth factors-mediated angiogenesis. In this study, we synthesized novel tetrac analogs by modifying the phenolic moiety of tetrac and tested them for their anti-angiogenesis activity using a Matrigel plug model for angiogenesis in mice. Pharmacological activity results showed that tetrac can accommodate numerous modifications and maintain its anti-angiogenesis activity.

Context: Inhibition of pathological angiogenesis. Objective: Obtaining new transactivator, bifunctional, thyroid antagonist, non-toxic anti-angiogenic compounds. Materials and methods: In silico drug design, synthesis in bulk and biological evaluation in chick chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) model. Results: Significant inhibition (range 6573%) at 0.252.0 g/ml doses. Discussion and conclusion: The synthesis of compounds (9), (10), and (11) incorporating long-chain moieties guanidine, urea, methyl amine and, propyl amine substitutions, respectively, into the core molecular framework of tetrac (tetraiodothyroacetic acid) were undertaken. The evaluation of the anti-angiogenic bioactivity of these compounds in the CAM model revealed no loss of activity in comparison with tetrac and XT199, which showed nearly 86% inhibition at dose levels of 1 and 0.5 g/ml, respectively, and validated the concept.
