Modification of the P(1)' substituent of macrocyclic matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) inhibitors provided compounds that are selective for inhibition of tumor necrosis factor-alpha converting enzyme (TACE) over MMP-1 and MMP-2. Several analogues potently inhibited the release of TNF-alpha in a THP-1 cellular assay. Compounds containing a trimethoxyphenyl group in the P(1)' substituent demonstrated TACE selectivity across several series of hydroxamate-based inhibitors.  相似文献

Death-associated protein kinase (DAPK) is a serine/threonine protein kinase implicated in diverse programmed cell death pathways. DAPK is a promising target protein for the treatment of ischemic diseases. We identified novel potent and selective DAPK inhibitors efficiently by structure-based virtual screening, then further developed the hit compounds. In this paper, we describe the development of the hit compounds and the structure–activity relationship studies of the DAPK inhibitors in detail, including calculation of the solvated interaction energy (SIE), and verification of selectivity using a kinase panel.  相似文献

Considering the importance of developing selective COX-2 inhibitors, the present paper explores selectivity requirements for COX-2 versus COX-1 binding of 3,4-diaryloxazolones using electrotopological state (E-state) index. The study also shows the utility of E-state index in developing statistically acceptable model having direct physicochemical significance: electron density distribution of different atoms of the oxazolone ring and attached two phenyl rings are important for the selective binding with COX-2 over COX-1. Moreover, the use of indicator variable shows that presence of ortho R(1) substituent (except fluoro) on the N(3)-phenyl ring decreases COX-2 selectivity. Further, an amino substituent at R(2) position (i.e., sulfonamide compound) is favorable for increasing COX-2 selectivity when the R(3) position is unsubstituted.  相似文献

The introduction of 3-arylmethyl, 3-aryloxy and 3-arylthio moieties into a 6-methylsulfonylindole framework using rational drug design led to potent, selective COX-2 inhibitors having efficacy in a rat carrageenan air pouch model. Incorporation of a conformationally more rigid 3-aroyloxy substituent onto the 6-methylsulfonylindole scaffold led to selective, but considerably less potent COX-2 inhibitors. Variation of the hydrophilicity and size of the indole 2-substituent of 3-arylthio-6-methylsulfonylindole inhibitors led to modulation of the COX-2 human whole blood (HWB) potency and selectivity.  相似文献

Beginning with a screening hit, unique thienopyrazole-indole inhibitors of Itk (interleukin-2-inducible tyrosine kinase) were designed, synthesized, and crystallized in the target kinase. Although initial compounds were highly active in Itk, they were not selective. Increasing the steric bulk around a tertiary alcohol at the 5-indole position dramatically improved selectivity toward Lyk and Syk, but not Txk. Substitutions at the 3- and 4-indole positions gave less active compounds that remained poorly selective. A difluoromethyl substitution at the 5-position of the thienopyrazole led to a highly potent and selective compound. Phenyl at this position reduced activity and selectivity while pushing the side-chains of Lys-391 and Asp-500 away from the binding pocket. Novel and selective thienopyrazole inhibitors of Itk were designed as a result of combining structure-based design and medicinal chemistry.  相似文献

Substituted pyridazino[4,5-b]indolizines were identified as potent and selective PDE4B inhibitors. We describe the structure–activity relationships generated around an HTS hit that led to a series of compounds with low nanomolar affinity for PDE4B and high selectivity over the PDE4D subtype.  相似文献

A new group of 3-(4-substituted-phenyl)-4-(4-methylsulfonamidophenyl)-2(5H)furanones in which the methylsulfonyl (MeSO(2)) COX-2 pharmacophore present in rofecoxib was replaced by a methanesulfonamido (MeSO(2)NH) moiety, and where the substituent at the para-position of the C-3 phenyl ring was simultaneously varied (H, F, Cl, Br, Me, OMe), were evaluated to determine the combined effects of steric and electronic substituent properties upon COX-1 and COX-2 inhibitory potency and COX isozyme selectivity. Structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies showed that compounds having a neutral (H), or electronegative halogen (F, Cl, Br), substituent at the para-position of the C-3 phenyl ring inhibited both COX-1 and COX-2 with COX-2 selectivity indexes in the 3.1-39.4 range. In contrast, compounds having an electron-donating Me or OMe substituent were selective inhibitors of COX-2 (COX-1 IC(50)>100 microM). These SAR data indicate the 3-aryl-4-(4-methylsulfonamidophenyl)-2(5H)furanone scaffold provides a suitable template to design COX inhibitors with variable COX-2 selectivity indexes.  相似文献

The structure-activity relationship study focused on the polar region of the HTS hit A-80040 (1) producing several series of potent and selective ACC2 inhibitors. The SAR suggests a compact lipophilic pocket that does not tolerate polar and ionic groups. Replacement of the hydroxyurea group with isoxazoles improves ACC2 selectivity while maintaining potency. Variations at the propargylic site of 11a reduce ACC2 potency.  相似文献

TASK-1 is a two-pore domain potassium channel that is important to modulating cell excitability, most notably in the context of neuronal pathways. In order to leverage TASK-1 for therapeutic benefit, its physiological role needs better characterization; however, designing selective inhibitors that avoid the closely related TASK-3 channel has been challenging. In this study, a series of bis-amide derived compounds were found to demonstrate improved TASK-1 selectivity over TASK-3 compared to reported inhibitors. Optimization of a marginally selective hit led to analog 35 which displays a TASK-1 IC50 = 16 nM with 62-fold selectivity over TASK-3 in an orthogonal electrophysiology assay.  相似文献

The similarity of human carbonic anhydrase (CA) active sites makes it difficult to design selective inhibitors for one or several CA isoforms that are drug targets. Here we synthesize a series of compounds that are based on 5-[2-(benzimidazol-1-yl)acetyl]-2-chloro-benzenesulfonamide (1a) which demonstrated picomolar binding affinity and significant selectivity for CA isoform five A (VA), and explain the structural influence of inhibitor functional groups to the binding affinity and selectivity. A series of chloro-substituted benzenesulfonamides bearing a heterocyclic tail, together with molecular docking, was used to build inhibitors that explore substituent influence on the binding affinity to the CA VA isoform.  相似文献

Through the use of computational modeling, a series of pyrimidinetrione-based inhibitors of MMP-13 was designed based on a lead inhibitor identified through file screening. Incorporation of a biaryl ether moiety at the C-5 position of the pyrimidinetrione ring resulted in a dramatic enhancement of MMP-13 potency. Protein crystallography revealed that this moiety binds in the S(1)(') pocket of the enzyme. Optimization of the C-4 substituent of the terminal aromatic ring led to incorporation of selectivity versus MMP-14 (MT-1 MMP). Structure activity relationships of the biaryl ether substituent are presented as is pharmacokinetic data for a compound that meets our in vitro potency and selectivity goals.  相似文献

A pharmacophore mapping approach, derived from previous experience of PIKK family enzymes, was used to identify a hit series of selective inhibitors of the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR). Subsequent refinement of the SAR around this hit series based on a tri-substituted triazine scaffold has led to the discovery of potent and selective inhibitors of mTOR.  相似文献

The synthesis, evaluation, and structure-activity relationships of a series of succinoyl lactam inhibitors of the Alzheimer's disease gamma-secretase are described. Beginning with a screening hit with broad proteinase activity, optimization provided compounds with both high selectivity for inhibition of gamma-secretase and high potency in cellular assays of A beta reduction. The SAR and early in vivo properties of this series of inhibitors will be presented.  相似文献

High throughput screening led to the discovery of a novel series of 1,3-diaminopropan-2-ol sulfonamides as selective GlyT-1 inhibitors. Structure-activity relationships of this novel series and optimisation of the initial hit that led to the identification of (2), a potent and selective GlyT-1 inhibitor, are also presented.  相似文献

In an effort to develop potent and selective inhibitors toward ACAT2, structure–activity relationship studies were carried out using derivatives based on pyripyropene A (PPPA, 1). We have successfully developed novel PPPA derivatives with a 7-O-substituted benzoyl substituent that significantly exhibit more potent ACAT2 inhibitory activity and higher ACAT2 isozyme selectivity than 1.  相似文献

We report here the discovery of a novel series of selective mTOR kinase inhibitors. A series of imidazo[4,5-b]pyrazin-2-ones, represented by screening hit 1, was developed into lead compounds with excellent mTOR potency and exquisite kinase selectivity. Potent compounds from this series show >1000-fold selectivity over the related PI3Kα lipid kinase. Further, compounds such as 2 achieve mTOR pathway inhibition, blocking both mTORC1 and mTORC2 signaling, in PC3 cancer cells as measured by inhibition of pS6 and pAkt (S473).  相似文献

Protein kinase C-theta (PKC-theta) is essential for the activation of T cells in autoimmune disorders, but not in viral infections. To study the role of PKC-theta in bacterial infections, PKC-theta(-/-) and wild-type mice were infected with Listeria monocytogenes (LM). In primary and secondary listeriosis, the numbers of LM-specific CD8 and CD4 T cells were drastically reduced in PKC-theta(-/-) mice, resulting in increased CFUs in spleen and liver of both PKC-theta(-/-) C57BL/6 and BALB/c mice. Furthermore, immunization with peptide-loaded wild-type dendritic cells induced LM-specific CD4 and CD8 T cells in wild-type but not in PKC-theta(-/-) mice. In listeriosis, transfer of wild-type T cells into PKC-theta(-/-) mice resulted in a normal control of Listeria, and, additionally, a selective expression of PKC-theta in LM-specific T cells was sufficient to drive a normal proliferation and survival of these T cells in LM-infected PKC-theta(-/-) recipients, illustrating a cell-autonomous function of PKC-theta in LM-specific T cells. Conversely, adoptively transferred PKC-theta(-/-) T cells were partially rescued from cell death and proliferated in LM-infected wild-type recipients, demonstrating that a PKC-theta deficiency of LM-specific T cells can be partially compensated for by a wild-type environment. Additionally, in vitro experiments showed that only the addition of IL-2, but not an inhibition of caspase-3, induced proliferation and prevented death of PKC-theta(-/-) T cells stimulated with LM-infected wild-type dendritic cells, further demonstrating that the impaired proliferation and survival of PKC-theta(-/-) T cells in listeriosis is not intrinsically fixed and can be experimentally improved.  相似文献

Regulation of NF-κB activation through the inhibition of IKKβ has been identified as a promising target for the treatment of inflammatory and autoimmune disease such as rheumatoid arthritis. In order to develop novel IKKβ inhibitors, we performed high throughput screening toward around 8000 library compounds, and identified a hit compound containing rhodanine moiety. We modified the structure of hit compound to obtain potent and selective IKKβ inhibitors. Throughout hit-to-lead studies, we have discovered optimized compounds which possess blocking effect toward NF-κB activation and TNFα production in cell as well as inhibition activity against IKKβ. Among them, compound 3q showed the potent inhibitory activity against IKKβ, and excellent selectivity over other kinases such as p38α, p38β, JNK1, JNK2, and JNK3 as well as IKKα.  相似文献

A new series of ketoprofen analogs were synthesized to evaluate their biological activities as selective cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) inhibitors. In vitro COX-1 and COX-2 inhibition studies showed that all compounds were potent and selective inhibitors of the COX-2 isozyme with IC50 values in the highly potent 0.057–0.085 μM range, and COX-2 selectivity indexes in the 115 to >1298.7 range. Compounds possessing azido pharmacophore group (8a and 8b) exhibited highly COX-2 inhibitory selectivity and potency even more than reference drug celecoxib. Molecular modeling studies indicated that the azido substituent can be inserted deeply into the secondary pocket of COX-2 active site for interactions with Arg513.  相似文献

A novel series of naphthylmethylimidazole derivatives and related compounds have been investigated as selective 17,20-lyase inhibitors. Optimization of the substituent at the 6-position on the naphthalene ring was performed to yield a methylcarbamoyl derivative, which exhibited potent inhibitory activity against human 17,20-lyase and promising selectivity (>200-fold) for 17,20-lyase over CYP3A4. Further modifications of the methylcarbamoyl derivative led to the discovery of the corresponding tricyclic compound, which showed highly potent activity against human 17,20-lyase (IC(50) 19 nM) and good selectivity (>1000-fold) for inhibition of 17,20-lyase over CYP3A4. Additional biological evaluation revealed that the tricyclic compound had potent in vivo efficacy in monkeys and favorable pharmacokinetic profiles when administered in rats. Asymmetric synthesis of the selective tricyclic inhibitor was also achieved using a chiral α-hydroxy ketone.  相似文献
