We report the discovery of 5-(4-hydroxy-6-methyl-2-oxo-2H-pyran-3-yl)-7-(4-methylphenyl)-(E)-2,3,6,7-tetrahydro-1,4-thiazepine (2a) as an inducer of apoptosis using our proprietary cell- and caspase-based HTS assay. Through structure activity relationship (SAR) studies, 5-(4-hydroxy-6-methyl-2-oxo-2H-pyran-3-yl)-7-(2-methoxy-4-(methylthio)phenyl)-(E)-2,3,6,7-tetrahydro-1,4-thiazepine (5d) was identified as a potent apoptosis inducer with an EC(50) value of 0.08 microM in T47D cells, which was >15-fold more potent than screening hit 2a. Compound 5d also was found to be highly active in a growth inhibition assay with a GI(50) value of 0.05 microM in T47D cells and to function as an inhibitor of tubulin polymerization. 相似文献

1-Benzoyl-3-cyanopyrrolo[1,2-a]quinoline (2a) was identified as a novel apoptosis inducer through our caspase- and cell-based high-throughput screening assay. Compound 2a had good activity against several breast cancer cell lines but was much less active against several other cancer cell lines. SAR studies of 2a found that substitution at the 4-position of the 1-benzoyl group was important for activity. Replacing the 3-cyano group by an ester or ketone group led to inactive compounds. Interestingly, 4-substituted analogs such as 1-(4-(1H-imidazol-1-yl)benzoyl)-3-cyanopyrrolo[1,2-a]quinoline (2k) were found to be broadly and highly active in the caspase activation assay as well as in the cell growth inhibition assay with low nM EC(50) and GI(50) values in human breast cancer cells T47D, human colon cancer cells HCT116, and hepatocellular carcinoma cancer cells SNU398. Compound 2a was found not to inhibit tubulin polymerization up to 50 microM, while 2k was found to inhibit tubulin polymerization with an IC(50) value of 5 microM, indicating that certain substituents at the 4-position of the 1-benzoyl group can change the mechanism of action. 相似文献

A series of indole-2-carboxylic acid benzylidene-hydrazides has been identified as a new class of potent apoptosis inducers through a novel cell-based caspase HTS assay. The screening hit, 5-chloro-3-methyl-indole-2-carboxylic acid (4-nitrobenzylidene)-hydrazide (3a), was found to arrest T47D cells in G(2)/M and to induce apoptosis as measured by the flow cytometric analysis assay. A SAR study was carried out by modification of the substitutions on the indole and benzene rings. Substitution at the 3-position of the indole ring was found to be important for apoptotic activity. A 20-fold increase of apoptotic activity was achieved from screening hit 3a to 5-methyl-3-phenyl-indole-2-carboxylic acid (4-methylbenzylidene)-hydrazide (9a) and 5-chloro-3-phenyl-indole-2-carboxylic acid (4-nitrobenzylidene)-hydrazide (9b), with EC(50) value of 0.1microM in the caspase activation assay in T47D breast cancer cells. Compound 9b also was found to be highly active in a standard growth inhibition assay with a GI(50) value of 0.9microM in T47D cells. Compound 3a and its analogs were found to inhibit tubulin polymerization, which is the most probable primary mechanism of action of these compounds. 相似文献

We report the discovery of a series of (naphthalen-4-yl)(phenyl)methanones as potent inducers of apoptosis using our proprietary cell- and caspase-based ASAP HTS assay. Through SAR studies, a group of N-methyl-N-phenylnaphthalen-1-amines also were identified as potent inducers of apoptosis. (1-(Dimethylamino)naphthalen-4-yl)(4-(dimethylamino)phenyl)methanone (2a), one of the most potent analogs, had EC(50) values of 37, 49 and 44nM in T47D, HCT116 and SNU398 cells, respectively. Compound 2a also was highly active in a growth inhibition assay with an GI(50) value of 34nM in T47D cells. Functionally, compound 2a arrested HCT116 cells in G(2)/M followed by induction of apoptosis and inhibited tubulin polymerization. 相似文献

As a continuation of our efforts to discover and develop the apoptosis inducing 4-anilino-2-(2-pyridyl)pyrimidines as potential anticancer agents, we explored replacing the 2-pyridyl group by other aryl groups. SAR studies showed that the 2-pyridyl group can be replaced by a 3-pyridyl, 4-pyridyl and 2-pyrazinyl group, and that the SAR for the anilino group was similar to that of the 2-pyridyl series. However, replacement of the 2-pyridyl group by a phenyl group, a 3,5-dichloro-4-pyridyl group, or a saturated ring led to inactive compounds. Several potent compounds, including 2f, 3d, 3j and 4a, with EC50 values of 0.048–0.024 μM in the apoptosis induction assay against T47D cells, were identified through the SAR studies. In a tubulin polymerization assay, compound 2f, which was active against all the three cell lines tested (T47D, HTC116 and SNU398), inhibited tubulin polymerization with an IC50 value of 0.5 μM, while compound 2a, which was active against T47D cells but not active against HTC116 and SNU398 cells, was not active in the tubulin assay at up to 50 μM. 相似文献

1-(2-(2,5-Dimethoxyphenylthio)benzylidene)semicarbazide (2a) was discovered as a potent apoptosis inducer through our cell based HTS assay. SAR study led to the discovery of a more aqueous soluble analog (2-(2,5-dimethoxyphenylthio)-6-methoxybenzylideneamino)guanidine (5e) with EC50 value of 60 nM in the caspase activation assay and GI50 value of 62 nM in the growth inhibition assay in T47D cells. Compound 5e was found to be an inhibitor of tubulin polymerization and efficacious in a MX-1 breast tumor model. 相似文献

A series of structurally related 2,5-disubstituted 6-(1-naphthylmethyl)-pyrimidin-4(3H)-ones, compounds 6a-6r, were synthesized and evaluated for their in vitro anti-HIV activities in MT-4 cells. Most of the new compounds investigated showed moderate-to-good activities against wild-type HIV-1, with IC(50) values in the range 5.64-0.21 microM. Compound 6d was the most potent congener (IC(50)=0.21 microM, SI=724) in inhibiting HIV-1 replication, which is ca. 25 times more effective than the reference compound 2',3'-dideoxyinosine (DDI). Preliminary structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies revealed that both modulation of the amino function at C(2) and of the alkyl group at C(5) of the pyrimidine ring are crucial for high anti-HIV-1 activity. 相似文献

We report the discovery of N-((benzo[d][1,3]dioxol-5-yl)methyl)-6-phenylthieno[3,2-d]pyrimidin-4-amine (2a) as an apoptosis inducer using our proprietary cell- and caspase-based ASAP HTS assay, and SAR study of HTS hit 2a which led to the discovery of 4-anilino-N-methylthieno[3,2-d]pyrimidines and 4-anilino-N-methylthieno[2,3-d]pyrimidines as potent apoptosis inducers. Compounds 5d and 5e were the most potent with EC50 values of 0.008 and 0.004 μM in T47D human breast cancer cells, respectively. Compound 5d was found to be highly active in the MX-1 breast cancer model. Functionally, compounds 5d and 5e both induced apoptosis through inhibition of tubulin polymerization. 相似文献

6-Methoxy-3-(3',4',5'-trimethoxybenzoyl)-1H-indole (BPR0L075) (1) is a potent inhibitor of tubulin polymerization which exhibits both in vitro and in vivo activities against a broad spectrum of solid tumors. This compound was designed as a heterocyclic analogue of combretastatin A4 (CA-4), a natural stilbene derivative that disrupts the tumor vasculature and causes tumor regression. In the present work, we describe the design and synthesis of several new disubstituted analogues of 1, along with their biological evaluation as potential antivascular agents. Compound 13, bearing a hydroxyl group at the 7-position of the indole nucleus that mimics the hydroxyl group at the 3-position of the B-ring of CA-4, was identified as a potent inhibitor of tubulin polymerization and also as a cytotoxic agent against B16 melanoma cells at sub-micromolar concentration. In addition, compound 13 displayed marked morphological activity (rounding up) at nanomolar concentrations on endothelial cells (EA.hy 926 cells), which is indicative of potential antivascular activity. Interestingly, the corresponding 7-O-mesylate derivative 28 (an intermediate in the synthesis of 13), was also found active in cellular assays, although it was moderately active in the tubulin polymerization inhibition test. Finally, in order to better understand the SAR of disubstituted analogues of 1, two other position isomers (10 and 14), were synthesized and evaluated for their biological activities. It was noted that the 7-hydroxysubstituted analogue 13 was more potent than the 5-hydroxysubstituted analogue 10. In conclusion, this work has allowed the identification of biologically potent CA-4 analogues (13 and 28) and also contributes to a better understanding of the SAR of 1. 相似文献

N-(2-Methylphenyl)-9-oxo-9H-fluorene-1-carboxamide (2a) was identified as a novel apoptosis inducer through our caspase- and cell-based high-throughput screening assay. Compound 2a was found to be active with sub-micromolar potencies for both caspase induction and growth inhibition in T47D human breast cancer, HCT116 human colon cancer, and SNU398 hepatocellular carcinoma cancer cells. It arrested HCT116 cells in G2/M followed by apoptosis as assayed by the flow cytometry. Structure–activity relationship (SAR) studies of the carboxamide group identified the lead compound N-(2-(1H-pyrazol-1-yl)phenyl)-9-oxo-9H-fluorene-1-carboxamide (6s). Compound 6s, with increased aqueous solubility, was found to retain the broad activity in the caspase activation assay and in the cell growth inhibition assay with sub-micromolar EC50 and GI50 values in T47D, HCT116, and SNU398 cells, respectively. 相似文献

A series of 2,6-dinitro-4-(trifluoromethyl)phenoxysalicylaldoxime derivatives (1h-20h) have been designed and synthesized, and their biological activities were also evaluated as potential antiproliferation and tubulin polymerization inhibitors. Among all the compounds, 2h showed the most potent activity in vitro, which inhibited the growth of MCF-7, Hep-G2 and A549 cell lines with IC(50) values of 0.70 ± 0.05, 0.68 ± 0.02 and 0.86 ± 0.05 μM, respectively. Compound 2h also exhibited significant tubulin polymerization inhibitory activity (IC(50)=3.06 ± 0.05 μM). The result of flow cytometry (FCM) demonstrated that compound 2h induced cell apoptosis. Docking simulation was performed to insert compound 2h into the crystal structure of tubulin at colchicine binding site to determine the probable binding model. Based on the preliminary results, compound 2h with potent inhibitory activity in tumor growth may be a potential anticancer agent. 相似文献

A new class of Aurora-A inhibitors have been identified based on the 2-amino-pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine scaffold. Here, we describe the synthesis and SAR of this novel series. We report compounds which exhibit nanomolar activity in the Aurora-A biochemical assay and are able to inhibit tumor cell proliferation. This study culminates in compound 30, an inhibitor with potent activity against Aurora A (IC50=0.008 microM), anti-proliferative activity against several tumor cell lines and induces polyploidy in H460 cells. 相似文献

2-(Trifluoromethyl)benzimidazole derivatives substituted at the 1-, 5-, and 6-positions have been synthesized and in vitro tested against the protozoa Giardia lamblia, Entamnoeha histolytica. and the helminth Trichinella spiralis. Results indicate that all the compounds tested are more active as antiprotozoal agents than Albendazole and Metronidazole. One compound (20) was as active as Albendazole against T. spiralis. These compounds were also tested for their effect on tubulin polymerization and none inhibited tubulin polymerization. 相似文献

As a continuation of our efforts to discover and develop the apoptosis inducing 1-benzoyl-3-cyanopyrrolo[1,2-a]quinolines as potential anticancer agents, we explored substitutions at the 4-, 5-, 6-, 7- and 8-positions of pyrrolo[1,2-a]quinoline. SAR studies showed that substitution at the 6-position by a small group such as Cl resulted in potent compounds. Substitutions at the 5- and 8-positions were tolerated while substitutions at the 4- and 7-position led to inactive compounds. Several compounds, including 2c, 3a, 3b and 3f, were found to be highly active against human breast cancer cells T47D with EC50 values of 0.053–0.080 μM, but much less active against human colon cancer cells HCT116 and hepatocellular carcinoma cancer cells SNU398 in the caspase activation assay. Compound 3f also was found to be highly active with a GI50 value of 0.018 μM against T47D cells in a growth inhibition assay. 相似文献

We report the discovery and SAR study of a series of N-phenyl-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-b]quinolin-4-amines as potent inducers of apoptosis. N-(3-Acetylphenyl)-2,3-dihydro-1H-cyclopenta[b]quinolin-9-amine (2) was discovered through our cell- and caspase-based HTS assays as an inducer of apoptosis. Compound 2 is active against cancer cells derived from several human solid tumors, with EC(50) values ranging from 400 to 700 nM. SAR study of hit 2 led to the discovery of N-phenyl-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-b]quinolin-4-amines as a novel series of potent apoptosis inducers, with 1,3-dimethyl-N-(4-propionylphenyl)-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-b]quinolin-amine (6b) having EC(50) values ranging from 30 to 70 nM in cancer cells. These compounds also demonstrated potent activity in the cell growth inhibition assay, with GI(50) values of 16-42 nM for compound 6b. 相似文献

A series of 2,5-diaryl-3-methylpyrimido[4,5-c]quinolin-1(2H)-ones (7-30), variously substituted at the 2- and 5-phenyl moieties, were synthesized and evaluated for their in vitro cytotoxic activity against a PC3 cancer cell line. Cytotoxicity data revealed that the type of substituent as well as substitution pattern have variable influence on cytotoxic activity. Among the compounds tested, compounds (9), (13), (18), (19), and (23) demonstrated appreciable cytotoxic activity with mean IC(50) values of 2.0, 1.4, 1.6, 2.2, and 1.9microM, respectively. Methyl substitution at the 2-phenyl ring was found to yield the least active compounds. Two of the most potent compounds (13) and (18) were further investigated for inhibition of tubulin polymerization and found to have no activity at the concentrations used in the assay. 相似文献

The syntheses of the novel C-5 substituted pyrimidine derivatives of l-ascorbic acid containing free hydroxy groups at C-2' (6-10) or C-2' and C-3' (11-15) positions of the lactone ring are described. Debenzylation of the 6-chloro- and 6-(N-pyrrolyl)purine derivatives of 2,3-O,O-dibenzyl-l-ascorbic acid (16 and 17) gave the new compounds containing hydroxy groups at C-2' (18) and C-2' and C-3' (19 and 20). Z- and E-configuration of the C4'C5' double bond and position of the lactone ring of the compounds 6-9 were deduced from their one- and two-dimensional (1)H and (13)C NMR spectra and connectivities in NOESY and HMBC spectra. Compounds 15 and 18 showed the best inhibitory activities of all evaluated compounds in the series. The compound 15 containing 5-(trifluoromethyl)uracil showed marked inhibitory activity against all human malignant cell lines (IC(50): 5.6-12.8 microM) except on human T-lymphocytes. Besides, this compound influenced the cell cycle by increasing the cell population in G2/M phase and induced apoptosis in SW 620 and MiaPaCa-2 cells. The compound 18 containing 6-chloropurine ring expressed the most pronounced inhibitory activities against HeLa (IC(50): 6.8 microM) and MiaPaCa-2 cells (IC(50): 6.5 microM). The compound 20 with 6-(N-pyrrolyl)purine moiety showed the best differential inhibitory effect against MCF-7 cells (IC(50): 35.9 microM). 相似文献

Dinitroanilines are of interest as antiprotozoal lead compounds because of their selective activity against the tubulin of these organisms, but concern has been raised due to the potentially mutagenic nitro groups. Analogues of N(1)-phenyl-3,5-dinitro-N(4),N(4)-di-n-butylsulfanilamide (GB-II-150, compound 2b), a selective antimitotic agent against African trypanosomes and Leishmania, have been prepared where the nitro groups are replaced with amino, chloro, cyano, carboxylate, methyl ester, amide, and methyl ketone moieties. Dicyano compound 5 displays IC(50) values that are comparable to 2b against purified leishmanial tubulin assembly (6.6 vs 7.4 microM), Trypanosoma brucei brucei growth in vitro (0.26 vs 0.18 microM), Leishmania donovani axenic amastigote growth in vitro (4.4 vs 2.3 microM), and in vitro toxicity against Vero cells (16 vs 9.7 microM). Computational studies provide a rationale for the antiparasitic order of activity of these analogues and further insight into the role of the substituents at the 3 and 5 positions of the sulfanilamide ring. 相似文献

Based on our previous work, a series of novel 2-amino-7,8-dihydropteridin-6(5H)-one derivatives were designed and synthesized via a ring-closing strategy. Biological evaluation with four human cancer cell lines (BT549, T47D, MDA-MB-468, and MDA-MB-231) showed that most of these compounds possessed moderate to potent antiproliferative activities. The most promising compound 8-benzyl-2-(phenethylamino)-7,8-dihydropteridin-6(5H)-one (6q) possessing IC50 values of 7.75, 6.37, and 10.73 μM against MDA-MB-468, T47D, and BT549, respectively, which were 49, 11, and 8 folds more active than the positive control fluorouracil. Moreover, fluorescence-activated cell sorting analysis revealed that compound 6q displayed a significant effect on G1 cell-cycle arrest in a concentration-dependent manner in T47D cells. The initial structure–activity relationship studies indicated that linker-length of amine chain in C-2 position of pyrimidine ring played a crucial role in modulating the antitumor activity, which could be of help in the rational design of dihydropteridin-6(5H)-ones as novel anticancer drugs. 相似文献
