DNA methyltransferase (DNMT) and histone deacetylase (HDAC) are well recognized epigenetic targets for discovery of antitumor agents. In this study, we designed and synthesized a series of nucleoside base hydroxamic acid derivatives as DNMT and HDAC dual inhibitors. MTT assays and enzymatic inhibitory activity tests indicated that compound 204 exhibited potent DNMT1 and HDAC1/6 inhibitory potency simultaneously in enzymatic levels and at cellular levels, inducing hypomethylation of p16 and hyperacetylation of histones H3K9 and H4K8. Besides, 204 remarkably inhibited proliferation against cancer cells U937 by prompting G0/G1 cell cycle arrest. Molecular docking models explained the functional mechanism of 204 inhibiting DNMT1 and HDAC. Preliminary studies on metabolic profiles revealed that 204 showed desirable stability in liver microsomes. Our study suggested that 204 inhibiting DNMT and HDAC concurrently can be a potential lead compound for epigenetic cancer therapy.

Voltage sensitive fluorescent dyes (VSDs) are important tools for probing signal transduction in neurons and other excitable cells. The impact of these highly lipophilic sensors has, however, been limited due to the lack of cell-specific targeting methods in brain tissue or living animals. We address this key challenge by introducing a nongenetic molecular platform for cell- and molecule-specific targeting of synthetic VSDs in the brain. We employ a dextran polymer particle to overcome the inherent lipophilicity of VSDs by dynamic encapsulation and high-affinity ligands to target the construct to specific neuronal cells utilizing only native components of the neurotransmission machinery at physiological expression levels. Dichloropane, a monoamine transporter ligand, enables targeting of dense dopaminergic axons in the mouse striatum and sparse noradrenergic axons in the mouse cortex in acute brain slices. PFQX in conjunction with ligand-directed acyl imidazole chemistry enables covalent labeling of AMPA-type glutamate receptors in the same brain regions. Probe variants bearing either a classical electrochromic ANEP dye or state-of-the-art VoltageFluor-type dye respond to membrane potential changes in a similar manner to the parent dyes, as shown by whole-cell patch recording. We demonstrate the feasibility of optical voltage recording with our probes in brain tissue with one-photon and two-photon fluorescence microscopy and define the signal limits of optical voltage imaging with synthetic sensors under a low photon budget determined by the native expression levels of the target proteins. This work demonstrates the feasibility of a chemical targeting approach and expands the possibilities of cell-specific imaging and pharmacology.

The Schmidt reaction of ω-azido valeryl chlorides in the presence of an additional nucleophile was explored. The arenes, alcohols, and amines were demonstrated as the intermolecular trapping reagents for isocyanate ion and N-acyliminium ion from the Schmidt rearrangement, affording the corresponding products with moderate to excellent yields. Two 2-oxoindoles from the reaction were successfully converted into four natural alkaloids, namely, assoanine, anhydrolycorine, oxoassoanine, and anhydrolycorinone.

Herein, the design, synthesis, and characterization of an unprecedented copolymer consisting of alternating linear and dendritic segments is described. First, a 4th-generation Hawker-type dendron with two azide groups was synthesized, followed by a step-growth azide-alkyne “click” reaction between the 4th-generation diazido dendron and poly(ethylene glycol) diacetylene to create the target polymers. Unequal reactivity of the functional groups was observed in the step-growth polymerization. The resulting copolymers, with alternating hydrophilic linear and hydrophobic dendritic segments, can spontaneously associate into a unique type of microphase-segregated nanorods in water.

Metal-catalyzed intramolecular C?H amination of alkyl azides constitutes an appealing approach to alicyclic amines; challenges remain in broadening substrate scope, enhancing regioselectivity, and applying the method to natural product synthesis. Herein we report an iron(III) porphyrin bearing axial N-heterocyclic carbene ligands which catalyzes the intramolecular C(sp3)–H amination of a wide variety of alkyl azides under microwave-assisted and thermal conditions, resulting in selective amination of tertiary, benzylic, allylic, secondary, and primary C?H bonds with up to 95 % yield. 14 out of 17 substrates were cyclized selectively at C4 to give pyrrolidines. The regioselectivity at C4 or C5 could be tuned by modifying the reactivity of the C5–H bond. Mechanistic studies revealed a concerted or a fast re-bound mechanism for the amination reaction. The reaction has been applied to the syntheses of tropane, nicotine, cis-octahydroindole, and leelamine derivatives.

This study provides the first report of the construction of tetrahydroindolizines and tetrahydropyrrolo[1,2-a]azepines via Br?nsted acid-mediated annulation of pyrroles featuring N-tethered α,β-unsaturated esters. In addition, the Br?nsted acid-catalyzed cyclization of pyrroles featuring pendant α,β-unsaturated ketones was applied to complete total syntheses of the indolizidine alkaloids (±)-tashiromine and (±)-indolizidine 209I.

A collection of 1,2,3-triazoles unsaturated fatty acid mimics were efficiently synthesized by click chemistry. The 1,4-disubstituted analogs prepared covered different alkyl chain lengths and triazole positions. The compounds were subsequently tested against Mycobacterium tuberculosis, being most of them active with some of the analogs displaying activity at micromolar concentration. The most potent member of the series has the triazole moiety on the C-2 position with a carbon chain of eight or ten carbon atoms. The 1,5-isomers of the most active analog were significantly less active than the original isomer. The activity of the selected hit was assayed on several clinical MTB multi-drug resistant strains providing the same MIC.

Salinomycin, a polyether antibiotic used for treatment of coccidial disease in animal husbandry, has demonstrated promising efficacy for treating different cancers. To enrich structure-activity relationship of salinomycin in tumours, we prepared a series of new triazole derivatives in specific site of salinomycin by click cycloaddition reactions, and assessed their antiproliferative activities on breast cancer cell lines. The screening results indicated that most derivatives modified at the C20 hydroxyl group have potent antitumour activity. Notably, salinomycin triazole dimers were 3.27–4.97 times more toxic than the natural substance in ERα-positive breast cancer cells (MCF-7), and had moderately improved toxicity in triple-negative breast cancer cells (MDA-MB-231).
