A series of chalcone derivatives from 3,4-methylenedioxybenzaldehyde and substituted acetophenones have been synthesized and investigated as antihyperglycemic agents in a glucose loaded animal model. Chalcones with biological activity were compared with lispro, regular insulin and tolbutamide effects on serum glucose levels. Compound 01, without substituent in the A-ring was not able to change glycemic levels. On the other hand, compounds 03, 04, 05, 09 and 10 with substitutions at position 3' and/or 4' in the A-ring caused significant reduction in serum glucose levels. Concerning the antihyperglycemic effect, compounds 03 and 05 (methoxy substituent) inhibited the hyperglycemia induced by glucose around 96% similar to that demonstrated for lispro insulin and tolbutamide at 60 min. A rapid and lasting antihyperglycemic effect was found with compound 09 and 10 (nitro substituent). In conclusion, besides the nature of the functional groups electron-donor substituent, as methoxy and hydroxyl or electron-acceptor, as nitro groups, the position of the group may be mandatory for biological activity. 相似文献

To enable studies to elucidate the detailed biological function of dysiherbaine and neodysiherbaine A, potent and subunit-selective agonists for ionotropic glutamate receptors, the derivative with a hydroxymethyl substituent at the C10 position has been developed. Preliminary biological evaluation of the analogue showed that a C10 hydroxymethyl substituent produced significant alterations in binding affinities for the ionotropic glutamate receptor subtypes. 相似文献

Electron-withdrawing substituents at position 4 of 2,5-dimethoxy-substituted amphetamines increase, whereas electron-donating substituents decrease the psychotomimetic activity. The origin of this clearly localized effect is discussed. The uses of modified Hammett substituent scales (sigma(-) and sigma(+)), and especially the good sigma(+) correlation, strongly suggest that electron-donating substituents decrease the biological activity through a specific effect relating to the extent of the conjugative electron release from the 5-methoxy group to the phenyl ring. 相似文献

The synthesis and biological evaluation of a new series of amine-substituted 2-arylbenzimidazole-4-carboxamide inhibitors of the DNA-repair enzyme poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) is reported. The introduction of an amine substituent at the 2-aryl position is not detrimental to activity, with most inhibitors exhibiting K(i) values for PARP-1 inhibition in the low nanomolar range. Two compounds in this series were found to potentiate the cytotoxicity of the DNA-methylating agent temozolomide by 4-5-fold in a human colorectal cancer cell line. 相似文献

Some 4'-C-ethynyl-2'-deoxy purine nucleosides showed the most potent anti-HIV activity among the series of 4'-C-substituted 2'-deoxynucleosides whose 4'-C-substituents were methyl, ethyl, ethynyl and so on. Our hypothesis is that the smaller the substituent at the C-4' position they have, the more acceptable biological activity they show. Thus, 4'-C-cyano-2'-deoxy purine nucleosides, whose substituent is smaller than the ethynyl group, will have more potent antiviral activity. To prove our hypothesis, we planned to develop an efficient synthesis of 4'-C-cyano-2'-deoxy purine nucleosides (4'-CNdNs) and 4'-C-ethynyl-2'-deoxy purine nucleosides (4'-EdNs). Consequently, we succeeded in developing an efficient synthesis of six 2'-deoxy purine nucleosides bearing either a cyano or an ethynyl group at the C-4' position of the sugar moiety from 2'-deoxyadenosine and 2,6-diaminopurine 2'-deoxyriboside. Unfortunately, 4'-C-cyano derivatives showed lower activity against HIV-1, and two 4'-C-ethynyl derivatives suggested high toxicity in vivo. 相似文献

A number of studies reported Mannich bases to manifest antimicrobial, cytotoxic, anticancer, anti-inflammatory, and anticonvulsant activities. A considerable number of therapeutically important cytotoxic compounds are active on DNA topoisomerases that regulate the DNA topology. In the present study we evaluated the biological activity of mono-Mannich bases, 1-aryl-3-phenethylamino-1-propanone hydrochlorides (1a-10a), and semicyclic mono-Mannich bases, 3-aroyl-4-aryl-1-phenethyl-4-piperidinols (1b-9b), synthesized in our laboratory. We employed androgen-independent human prostate cancer cells (PC-3) to assess the cytotoxicity of the compounds and extended the biological activity evaluation to cover supercoil relaxation assays of mammalian type I topoisomerases. Our results showed that the compounds had cytotoxicity within the 8.2-32.1 microM range, while two compounds gave rise to a comparable average value in topo I interference of 42% and 40% for 10a (with a hydroxy substituent on the phenyl ring from mono-Mannich bases) and 5b (with a fluoro substituent on the phenyl ring from the semicyclic mono-Mannich base series, piperidinols), respectively. 相似文献

A common pharmacophore for Taxol and the epothilones based on the biological activity of a taxane molecule lacking a C-13 side chain 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Extensive structure-activity studies done with Taxol have identified the side chain at C-13 as one of the requirements for biological activity. Baccatin III, an analogue of Taxol lacking the C-13 side chain, has none of the biological characteristics of Taxol. Since 2-m-azido Taxol, a Taxol derivative with a m-azido substituent in the C-2 benzoyl ring, has greater activity than Taxol, we questioned whether 2-m-azido baccatin III might be active. 2-m-Azido baccatin III inhibited the proliferation of human cancer cells at nanomolar concentrations, blocked cells at mitosis, and reorganized the interphase microtubules into distinct bundles, a typical morphological change induced by Taxol. In contrast to 2-m-azido baccatin III, 2-p-azido baccatin III was similar to baccatin III, having no Taxol-like activity, further indicating the specificity and significance of the 2-meta position substituent. Molecular modeling studies done with the C-2 benzoyl ring of Taxol indicated that it fits into a pocket formed by His227 and Asp224 on beta-tubulin and that the 2-m-azido, in contrast to the 2-p-azido substituent, is capable of enhancing the interaction between the benzoyl group and the side chain of Asp224. The observation that the C-13 side chain is not an absolute requirement for biological activity in a taxane molecule has enabled the development of a new common pharmacophore model between Taxol and the epothilones. 相似文献

The antagonistic activities of derivatives of spiroethyl phenyl(substituted)piperazine at the 5-HT(1A) and adrenergic alpha(1d) receptors is quantitatively analyzed employing physicochemical and structural parameters. The derived correlation equation revealed that a substituent, other than 2-CH3 in the phenyl ring, having higher molar refraction, MR, and a substituent producing higher positive field effect at the 3-position are beneficial in increasing the binding affinity at the 5-HT(1A) receptor. In addition, a less hydrophobic substituent at the 4-position is also helpful in augmenting the binding affinity. The 5-R substituents which have higher MR values, however, elicit a detrimental effect. Two disubstituted compounds which are not present in the original data-set and have higher theoretical binding affinities are designed from the correlation equation. These compounds consisting of 2-OCH(CH3)2, 3-Cl and 2-C3H7, 3-Cl in the phenyl ring, have theoretical pK(i) values 10.57 and 10.12 respectively. For the adrenergic alpha(1d) receptor, a less bulky group at the 3-position with 5-Cl (or simply a 3-Cl) is advantageous in increasing the binding affinity. Likewise, a substituent exhibiting a less negative resonance effect at the 4-position and the substituent with low polarizability and showing more a negative resonance effect at the 5-position are suitable for enhancement of the binding affinity. The analysis provides the grounds for rationalizing substituent selection in designing better potency antagonists in the series. 相似文献

A novel series of triazoloquinazolinone derivatives were designed, synthesised, and evaluated for their in vitro biological activities against the SHP2 protein. Moreover, some compounds were evaluated against A375 cells. The results revealed that target compounds possessed moderate to excellent inhibitory activity against SHP2 protein, whereas compounds 12f, 12l, 12j, 17e, and 17f have strong antiproliferative activity on A375 cells. The compound 12l showed remarkable cytotoxicity against A375 cells and a strong inhibitory effect against SHP2 protein when compared with SHP244. The structure-activity relationships (SARs) indicated that electron-donating groups (EDGs) on phenyl rings are beneficial for improving the antitumor activity; compounds with a hydroxyl substituent at the 2-position of phenyl ring exhibited superior activities than compounds with a substituent at the 4-position. In addition, compound 12l displayed improved physicochemical properties as well as metabolic stability compared to SHP244. Our efforts identified 12l as a promising SHP2 protein inhibitor, warranting its further investigation. 相似文献

The structure of the lipid A and core region of the lipopolysaccharide (LPS) from Francisella tularensis (ATCC 29684) was analysed using NMR, mass spectrometry and chemical methods. The LPS contains a beta-GlcN-(1-6)-GlcN lipid A backbone, but has a number of unusual structural features; it apparently has no substituent at O-1 of the reducing end GlcN residue in the lipid part in the major part of the population, no substituents at O-3 and O-4 of beta-GlcN, and no substituent at O-4 of the Kdo residue. The largest oligosaccharide, isolated after strong alkaline deacylation of NaBH4 reduced LPS had the following structure: where Delta-GalNA-(1-3)-beta-QuiNAc represents a modified fragment of the O-chain repeating unit. Two shorter oligosaccharides lacking the O-chain fragment were also identified. A minor amount of the disaccharide beta-GlcN-(1-6)-alpha-GlcN-1-P was isolated from the same reaction mixture, indicating the presence of free lipid A, unsubstituted by Kdo and with phosphate at the reducing end. The lipid A, isolated from the products of mild acid hydrolysis, had the structure 2-N-(3-O-acyl4-acyl2)-beta-GlcN-(1-6)-2-N-acyl1-3-O-acyl3-GlcN where acyl1, acyl2 and acyl3 are 3-hydroxyhexadecanoic or 3-hydroxyoctadecanoic acids, acyl4 is tetradecanoic or (minor) hexadecanoic acids. No phosphate substituents were found in this compound. OH-1 of the reducing end glucosamine, and OH-3 and OH-4 of the nonreducing end glucosamine residues were not substituted. LPS of F. tularensis exhibits unusual biological properties, including low endoxicity, which may be related to its unusual lipid A structure. 相似文献

As potential inhibitors of Escherichia coli pyruvate dehydrogenase complex E1 (PDHc E1), a series of novel 2-methylpyrimidine-4-ylamine derivatives were designed based on the structure of the active site of PDHc E1 and synthesized using 'click chemistry'. Their inhibitory activity in vitro against PDHc E1 and fungicidal activity were examined. Some of these compounds such as 3g, 3l, 3n, 3o, and 5b demonstrated to be effective inhibitors of PDHc E1 from E. coli and exhibited antifungal activity. SAR analysis indicated that both, the inhibitory potency against E. coli PDHc E1 and the antifungal activity of title compounds, could be increased greatly by optimizing substituent groups in the compounds. The structures of substituent group in 5-position on the 1,2,3-triazole and 4-position on the benzene ring in title compounds were found to play a pivotal role in both above-mentioned biological activities. Amongst all the compounds, compound 5b with iodine in the 5-position of 1,2,3-triazole and with nitryl group in the 4-position of benzene ring acted as the best inhibitor against PDHc E1 from E. coli. It was also found to be the most effective compound with higher antifungal activity against Rhizoctonia solani and Botrytis cinerea at the dosage of 100 μg mL(-1). Therefore, in this study, compound 5b was used as a lead compound for further optimization. 相似文献

The adenosine kinase inhibitory (AKI) activity of 5-iodo and diaryl analogues of tubercidin is quantitatively analyzed using Fujita-Ban and Hansch type analyses. The Fujita-Ban analysis being a non-parametric approach assigned the highest contribution to Cl at the X-position, C6H4-4-Cl, C6H5, 2-furanyl and I at the Y-position and CH2NH2 and CH3 at the Z-position. In addition, a OH substituent at the C-position also emerged as a better choice possibly due to its engagement in hydrogen bonding with some active site function. Thus a compound having Cl, C6H4-4-Cl, CH2NH2 and OH respectively at X-, Y-, Z- and C-positions is predicted to have a potency nearly 1.5 orders of magnitude higher than the most potent compound of the parent data set. The Hansch type analysis, on the other hand, is a parametric approach and is carried out on two sub-sets of original compounds. This sub-division is based on size and nature of the substituents present at the X- and Y-positions. For the compounds in the first sub-set the derived significant correlation equation suggested that the substituent at the Y-position exhibiting a higher field effect and a substituent such as Cl and CH2NH2 at X- and Z-positions, respectively, are important for a compound to show increased AKI activity. Thio/alkylthio at X and CH2OCH3 at Z, on the other hand, lead to a detrimental effect. Similarly for the compounds in the second subset, the derived significant correlation equation showed that a substituent at the X-position having a higher negative field effect, a substituent at the Y-position having bulky groups and the C-position occupied by a OH group are essential for enhancement of the activity of a compound. 相似文献

The size and position of a hydrophobic moiety on a benzolactam skeleton, which reproduces the active conformation and biological activity of teleocidins, play an important role in the appearance of the activity. Compounds with alkyl groups of various sizes and shapes at the 2-position of benzolactam were synthesized. Structure-activity results indicate that a hydrophobic substituent at the C-2 position plays a critical role in the appearance of biological activities, as in the case of substitution at C-9. 相似文献

Human organic cation transporters (OCTs) represent an understudied neurotransmitter uptake mechanism for which no selective agents have yet been identified. Several neurotransmitters (e.g. serotonin, norepinephrine) are low-affinity substrates for these transporters, but possess higher affinity for other transporters (e.g. the serotonin or norepinephrine transporters; SERT and NET, respectively). We have identified a new class of OCT inhibitors with a phenylguanidine structural scaffold. Here, we examine the actions of a series of such compounds and report preliminary structure–activity relationships (SARs) – the first dedicated SAR study of OCT3 action. Initial results showed that the presence of a substituent on the phenyl ring, as well as its position, contributes to the phenylguanidines’ inhibitory potency (IC50 values ranging from 2.2 to >450 μM) at hOCT3. There is a trend towards enhanced inhibitory potency of phenylguanidines with increased lipophilic character and the size of the substituent at the phenyl 4-position, with the latter reaching a ceiling effect. The first PiPT-based hOCT3 homology models were generated and are in agreement with our biological data. 相似文献

In the course of their sexual interactions, zygomycete fungi communicate via an elaborate series of carotene-derived compounds, namely trisporic acid and its biosynthetic progenitors. A novel building-block strategy allowed the systematic generation of structurally modified trisporoids along with putative early biosynthetic precursors for physiological tests. The impact of discrete structural elements was documented by the ability of individual compounds to induce sexually committed hyphae in Mucor mucedo. The activity screening contributed to establish general structure-function relationships for trisporoid action. Most crucial for activity were the dimension of the longer side chain, the polarity of functional groups at C(4) and C(13), and the number of conjugated double bonds in the side chain. The presence of an oxygen substituent at the cyclohexene ring is not essential for function. The overall biological activity apparently results from the combination of the various structural elements. 相似文献

Synthesis and antitumor evaluation of novel 5-substituted-4-hydroxy-8-nitroquinazolines as EGFR signaling-targeted inhibitors 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

The synthesis and biological activity of a series of novel 5-substituted-4-hydroxy-8-nitroquinazolines that may function as inhibitors of EGFR- and/or ErbB-2-related oncogenic signaling are described. These compounds were prepared by S(N)Ar reaction of 5-chloro-4-hydroxy-8-nitroquinazoline with alkyl or aryl amines, or alkyl alcohol as nucleophiles. Although the enzyme assay showed a weak inhibition effect against both EGFR and ErbB-2 tyrosine kinases, the cell-based antitumor activity turned out promising. Compounds having 5-anilino substituent exhibit high potency with 5-(4-methoxy)anilino-4-hydroxy-8-nitroquinazoline (1h) being the best dual EGFR/ErbB-2 inhibitors, which effectively inhibited the growth of both EGFR (MDA-MB-468, IC(50)<0.01microM) and ErbB-2 (SK-BR-3, IC(50)=13microM) overexpressing human tumor cell lines in vitro. More interestingly, the variation of the substituent(s) at the 3- and/or 4-position of the 5-anilino portion was found to modulate the selectivity and potency dramatically. However, compounds having an alkylamino or alkyloxy group at the 5-position of 4-hydroxy-8-nitroquinazolines are essentially inactive. These results are consistent with molecular modeling observations. This study was the first attempt to identify new structural types of dual EGFR/ErbB-2-related signaling inhibitors by incorporation of the anilino group at the 5-position of 4-hydroxy-8-nitroquinazolines' core structure, providing promising new templates for further development of potent inhibitors targeting both EGFR and ErbB-2 tyrosine kinases. 相似文献

The synthesis and biological evaluation of novel human A-FABP inhibitors based on the 6-(trifluoromethyl)pyrimidine-4(1H)-one scaffold is described. Two series of compounds, bearing either an amino or carbon substituent in the 2-position of the pyrimidine ring were investigated. Modification of substituents and chain length optimization led to novel compounds with low micromolar activity and good selectivity for human A-FABP. 相似文献

Oestradiol-17beta:NAD+ 17-oxidoreductase from human placenta can accept coenzyme analogues of NAD+ and NADP+ where the amide group is replaced by methyl ketone, nitrile or thioamide. The inhibition with analogues of NAD+ has been studied. The presence of a substituent at C-3 of the pyridinium ring is necessary for the binding. The inhibition by C-4 methylated analogues is very poor, and the effect of a methyl group at C-5 depends on the substituent at C-3. The 1,4,5,6-tetrahydronicotinamide adenine dinucleotide is a competitive inhibitor. Nicotinamide 8-bromoadenine dinucleotide and nicotinamide 8-thioadenine dinucleotide are efficient hydrogen acceptors. 相似文献

Serine hydroxymethyltransferase catalyzes the cleavage of β-hydroxyamino acids into glycine and aldehydes in the absence of tetrahydrofolate. The enzyme accepts various β-hydroxyamino acids as the substrate of this reaction. The reaction rate varies depending on the substituent and stereochemistry at the Cβ atom: the erythro forms and the β-phenyl substituent are preferred over the threo forms and the β-methyl substituent, respectively. Although several mechanisms have been proposed, what determines the substrate preference remains unclear. We first performed quantum mechanical calculations to assess the validity of the reaction mechanisms. The results indicate that the retro-aldol mechanism starting with abstraction of the proton from the β-hydroxyl group is plausible. This also suggests that Cα-Cβ bond cleavage is the rate-limiting step. We next measured the dependence of the rate constants on temperature with four representative substrates and calculated the activation energies and pre-exponential factors from the Arrhenius plots. The activation energies of the erythro forms were lower than those of the threo forms. The β-phenyl substituent lowered the activation energy in the threo form, whereas it did not alter the activation energy but increased the pre-exponential factor in the erythro form. We present a unified model to explain the origin of the substituent and stereochemical preferences by combining the theoretical and experimental results. A possible biological role of the tetrahydrofolate-independent activity in thermophiles is also discussed. 相似文献

The C-4 side chain modification of lead compound 1 has resulted in the identification of a potent and selective Candida albicans N-myristoyltransferase (CaNmt) inhibitor RO-09-4609, which exhibits antifungal activity against C. albicans in vitro. Further modification of its C-2 substituent has led to the discovery of RO-09-4879, which exhibits antifungal activity in vivo. The drug design is based on X-ray crystal analysis of a CaNmt complex with benzofuran derivative 4a. The optimization incorporates various biological investigations including a quasi in vivo assay and pharmacokinetic study. The computer aided drug design, synthesis, structure-activity relationships, and biological properties of RO-09-4879 are described in detail. 相似文献
