Antitrypanosomal activity of 5′-deoxy-5′-(iodomethylene) adenosine and related 6-N-cyclopropyladenosine analogues

Treatment of the 6-N-cyclopropyl-2′,3′-di-O- isopropylideneadenosine 5′-aldehyde with sulfone-stabilized phosphonate or fluorophosphonate reagents followed by stannyldesulfonylations and subsequent iodo- or protiodestannylation gave 6-N-cyclopropyl-5′-deoxy-5′- (iodomethylene)adenosine 8b or its 5′-fluoromethylene analogue 11. Treatment of the 5′-aldehyde with hydroxylamine or dibromomethylene- or cyanomethylene-stabilized Wittig reagents and deprotections gave the oxime 4b, 5′-cyanomethylene 5b, and 5′-dibromomethylene 13b analogues. Dehydrobromination of 13b gave acetylenic compound 14b. From the tested 6-N-cyclopropyladenosine analogues modified at the 5′ carbon, the 5′-iodomethylene 8b had the most potent activity against Trypanosoma brucei in vitro with an IC50 of 12 μg/mL. The IC50 value was 19 μg/mL for both the 5′-fluoromethylene 11 and the 5′-cyanomethylene 5b compounds. The (E)-5′-deoxy-5′- (iodomethylene)adenosine 2a, a known inhibitor of AdoHcy hydrolase not modified with a cyclopropyl ring at 6-amino group, also inhibited T. brucei with an IC50 of 9 μg/mL. In contrast to some other adenosine analogues modified at C5′, the 6-N-cyclopropyladenosine analogues described here do not exhibit an inhibitory effect on AdoHcy hydrolase and displayed only marginal antiviral activity.

Synthesis and structure-activity relationship investigation of adenosine-containing inhibitors of histone methyltransferase DOT1L

Histone3-lysine79 (H3K79) methyltransferase DOT1L has been found to be a drug target for acute leukemia with MLL (mixed lineage leukemia) gene translocations. A total of 55 adenosine-containing compounds were designed and synthesized, among which several potent DOT1L inhibitors were identified with Ki values as low as 0.5 nM. These compounds also show high selectivity (>4500-fold) over three other histone methyltransferases. Structure-activity relationships (SAR) of these compounds for their inhibitory activities against DOT1L are discussed. Potent DOT1L inhibitors exhibit selective activity against the proliferation of MLL-translocated leukemia cell lines MV4;11 and THP1 with EC50 values of 4-11 μM. Isothermal titration calorimetry studies showed that two representative inhibitors bind with a high affinity to the DOT1L:nucleosome complex and only compete with the enzyme cofactor SAM (S-adenosyl-l-methionine) but not the substrate nucleosome.

Inhibition of siderophore biosynthesis in Mycobacterium tuberculosis with nucleoside bisubstrate analogues: Structure-activity relationships of the nucleobase domain of 5′-O-[N-(salicyl)sulfamoyl]adenosine

5′-O-[N-(salicyl)sulfamoyl]adenosine (Sal-AMS) is a prototype for a new class of antitubercular agents that inhibit the aryl acid adenylating enzyme (AAAE) known as MbtA involved in biosynthesis of the mycobactins. Herein, we report the structure-based design, synthesis, biochemical, and biological evaluation of a comprehensive and systematic series of analogues, exploring the structure-activity relationship of the purine nucleobase domain of Sal-AMS. Significantly, 2-phenyl-Sal-AMS derivative 26 exhibited exceptionally potent antitubercular activity with an MIC99 under iron-deficient conditions of 0.049 μM while the N-6-cyclopropyl-Sal-AMS 16 led to improved potency and to a 64-enhancement in activity under iron-deficient conditions relative to iron-replete conditions, a phenotype concordant with the designed mechanism of action. The most potent MbtA inhibitors disclosed here display in vitro antitubercular activity superior to most current first line TB drugs, and these compounds are also expected to be useful against a wide range of pathogens that require aryl-capped siderphores for virulence.

Design of allele-specific protein methyltransferase inhibitors

Protein arginine methyltransferases, which catalyze the transfer of methyl groups from S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) to arginine side chains in target proteins, regulate transcription, RNA processing, and receptor-mediated signaling. To specifically address the functional role of the individual members of this family, we took a "bump-and-hole" approach and designed a series of N6-substituted S-adenosylhomocysteine (SAH) analogues that are targeted toward a yeast protein methyltransferase RMT1. A point mutation was identified (E117G) in Rmt1 that renders the enzyme susceptible to selective inhibition by the SAH analogues. A mass spectrometry based enzymatic assay revealed that two compounds, N6-benzyl- and N6-naphthylmethyl-SAH, can inhibit the mutant enzyme over the wild-type with the selectivity greater than 20. When the E117G mutation was introduced into the Saccharomyces cerevisiae chromosome, the methylation of Np13p, a known in vivo Rmt1 substrate, could be moderately reduced by N6-naphthylmethyl-SAH in the resulting allele. In addition, an N6-benzyl-SAM analogue was found to serve as an orthogonal SAM cofactor. This analogue is preferentially utilized by the mutant methyltransferase relative to the wild-type enzyme with a selectivity greater than 67. This specific enzyme/inhibitor and enzyme/substrate design should be applicable to other members of this protein family and facilitate the characterization of protein methyltransferase function in vivo when combined with RNA expression analysis.

N-cycloalkyl derivatives of adenosine and 1-deazaadenosine as agonists and partial agonists of the A1 adenosine receptor

A number of cycloalkyl substituents (from C-3 to C-8) have been introduced on the 6-amino group of adenosine, 1-deazaadenosine, and 2'- deoxyadenosine, bearing or not a chlorine atom at the 2-position, to evaluate the influence on the A1 and A(

Anti-dementia agents

An anti-dementia agent comprising as an active ingredient an adenosine derivative is disclosed. The anti-dementia agent is useful in the therapy of various types of dementia, especially senile dementia. Examples of the adenosine derivative include L-N6 -phenylisopropyl-adenosine, 2-chloroadenosine, N6 -cyclohexyladenosine, adenosine-5'-(N-cyclopropyl)carboxamide.
