Abstract: | A series of heterocyclic mercaptans incorporating 1,3,4-thiadiazole- and 1,2,4-triazole rings have been prepared and assayed for the inhibition of three physiologically relevant carbonic anhydrase (CA, EC 4.2.1.1) isozymes, the cytosolic human isozymes I and II, and the transmembrane, tumor-associated hCA IX. Against hCA I the investigated thiols showed inhibition constants in the range of 97 nM to 548 microM, against hCA II in the range of 7.9-618 microM, and against hCA IX in the range of 9.3-772 microM. Thiadiazoles were generally more active than triazoles against all investigated isozymes. Generally, the best inhibitors were the simple derivative 5-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazole-2-thiol and its N-acetylated derivative, which were anyhow at least two orders of magnitude less effective inhibitors when compared to the corresponding sulfonamides, acetazolamide, and its deacetylated derivative. An exception was constituted by 5-(2-pyridylcarboxamido)-1,3,4-thiadiazole-2-thiol, which is the first hCA I-selective inhibitor ever reported, possessing an inhibition constant of 97 nM against isozyme I, and being a 105 times less effective hCA II inhibitor, and 3154 times less effective hCA IX inhibitor. Thus, the thiol moiety may lead to effective CA inhibitors targeting isozyme I, whereas it is a less effective zinc-binding function for the design of CA II and CA IX inhibitors over the sulfonamide group. |
