Abstract: | Early studies demonstrated that over expression of indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO1) in tumor microenvironment results in tumor immune escape. Herein, in order to simplify the structure of two kinds of IDO1 inhibitors from marine alkaloid, Exiguamine A and Tsitsikammamines, we designed, synthesized a series of 1H-indole-4,7-dione derivatives and evaluated their inhibitory activity in IDO1 enzyme and in IFN-γ stimulated Hela cells in vitro. The structure-activity relationship demonstrated that 5-(pyridin-3-yl)-1H-indole-4,7-dione is a promising scaffold for IDO1 inhibitors and most compounds with this core showed moderate inhibition potency at micromole level. Our further enzyme kinetics experiments reveal that these new developed compounds might act as reversible competitive inhibitors of IDO1. |
