Based on crystal structures of Trypanosoma brucei methionyl-tRNA synthetase (TbMetRS) bound to inhibitors, we designed, synthesized, and evaluated two series of novel TbMetRS inhibitors targeting this parasite enzyme. One series has a 1,3-dihydro-imidazol-2-one containing linker, the other has a rigid fused aromatic ring in the linker. For both series of compounds, potent inhibition of parasite growth was achieved with EC50 20?000 nM. Selectivity over human mitochondrial methionyl tRNA synthetase was also evaluated, using a cell-based mitochondrial protein synthesis assay, and selectivity in a range of 20-200-fold was achieved. The inhibitors exhibited poor permeability across the blood brain barrier, necessitating future efforts to optimize the compounds for use in late stage human African trypanosomiasis.

Paragraph 0074; 0077; 0102-0105, (2018/09/26)
The invention relates to a 5-thiazole amide compound and biology application thereof. The 5-thiazole amide compound has a general formula (I) described in the specification and is used for targeting an AKT/PKB kinase (ATP binding site). Experiments prove that a thiazole amide AKT inhibitor can remarkably inhibit the activity of the AKT kinase in vitro and has strong proliferation inhibition function on various tumor cells with high AKT activity, which indicate that the 5-thiazole amide compound can be used for preparing drugs for resisting tumors.

A new series of 2-substituted thiazole carboxamides were identified as potent pan inhibitors against all three isoforms of Akt (Akt1, Akt2 and Akt3) by systematic optimization of weak screening hit N-(1-amino-3-phenylpropan-2-yl)- 2-phenylthiazole-5-carboxamide (1). One of the most potent compounds, 5m, inhibited the kinase activities of Akt1, Akt2 and Akt3 with IC50 values of 25, 196 and 24 nM, respectively. The compound also potently inhibited the phosphorylation of downstream MDM2 and GSK3β proteins, and displayed strongly antiproliferative activity in prostate cancer cells. The inhibitors might serve as lead compounds for further development of novel effective anticancer agents.
