- Synthesis and evaluation of 2-(4-[4-acetylpiperazine-1-carbonyl] phenyl)-1H-benzo[d]imidazole-4-carboxamide derivatives as potential PARP-1 inhibitors and preliminary study on structure-activity relationship
-
Although 1H-benzo[d]imidazole-4-carboxamide derivatives have been explored for a long time, the structure–activity relationship of the substituents in the hydrophobic pocket (AD binding sites) has not thoroughly discovered. Here in, a series of 2-(4-[4-acetylpiperazine-1-carbonyl]phenyl)-1H-benzo[d]imidazole-4-carboxamide derivatives have been designed, synthesized, and successful characterization as novel and effective poly ADP-ribose polymerases (PARP)-1 inhibitors to improve the structure–activity relationships about the substituents in the hydrophobic pocket. These derivatives were evaluated for their PARP-1 inhibitory activity and cellular inhibitory against BRCA-1 deficient cells (MDA-MB-436) and wild cells (MCF-7) using PARP kit assay and MTT method. The results indicated that compared with other heterocyclic compounds, furan ring-substituted derivatives 14n-14q showed better PARP-1 inhibitory activity. Among this derivatives, compound 14p displayed the strongest inhibitory effects on PARP-1 enzyme (IC50?=?0.023 μM), which was close to that of Olaparib. 14p (IC50?=?43.56 ± 0.69 μM) and 14q (IC50?=?36.69 ± 0.83 μM) displayed good antiproliferation activity on MDA-MB-436 cells and inactivity on MCF-7 cells, indicating that 14p and 14q have high selectivity and targeting. The molecular docking method was used to explore the binding mode of compound 14p and PARP-1, and implied that the formation of hydrogen bond was essential for PARP-1 inhibition activities. This study also showed that in the hydrophobic pocket (AD binding sites), the introduction of strong electronegative groups (furan ring, e.g.) or halogen atoms in the side chain of benzimidazole might improve its inhibitory activity and this strategy could be applied in further research.

- Discovery of Novel Apigenin-Piperazine Hybrids as Potent and Selective Poly (ADP-Ribose) Polymerase-1 (PARP-1) Inhibitors for the Treatment of Cancer
-
Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) is a potential target for the discovery of chemosensitizers and anticancer drugs. Amentoflavone (AMF) is reported to be a selective PARP-1 inhibitor. Here, structural modifications and trimming of AMF have led to a series of AMF derivatives (9a-h) and apigenin-piperazine/piperidine hybrids (14a-p, 15a-p, 17a-h, and 19a-f), respectively. Among these compounds, 15l exhibited a potent PARP-1 inhibitory effect (IC50 = 14.7 nM) and possessed high selectivity to PARP-1 over PARP-2 (61.2-fold). Molecular dynamics simulation and the cellular thermal shift assay revealed that 15l directly bound to the PARP-1 structure. In in vitro and in vivo studies, 15l showed a potent chemotherapy sensitizing effect against A549 cells and a selective cytotoxic effect toward SK-OV-3 cells through PARP-1 inhibition. 15l·2HCl also displayed good ADME characteristics, pharmacokinetic parameters, and a desirable safety margin. These findings demonstrated that 15l·2HCl may serve as a lead compound for chemosensitizers and the (BRCA-1)-deficient cancer therapy.

- Structure-Activity Relationships of Potent, Targeted Covalent Inhibitors That Abolish Both the Transamidation and GTP Binding Activities of Human Tissue Transglutaminase
-
Human tissue transglutaminase (hTG2) is a multifunctional enzyme. It is primarily known for its calcium-dependent transamidation activity that leads to formation of an isopeptide bond between glutamine and lysine residues found on the surface of proteins, but it is also a GTP binding protein. Overexpression and unregulated hTG2 activity have been associated with numerous human diseases, including cancer stem cell survival and metastatic phenotype. Herein, we present a series of targeted covalent inhibitors (TCIs) based on our previously reported Cbz-Lys scaffold. From this structure-activity relationship (SAR) study, novel irreversible inhibitors were identified that block the transamidation activity of hTG2 and allosterically abolish its GTP binding ability with a high degree of selectivity and efficiency (kinact/KI > 105 M-1 min-1). One optimized inhibitor (VA4) was also shown to inhibit epidermal cancer stem cell invasion with an EC50 of 3.9 μM, representing a significant improvement over our previously reported "hit" NC9.

- Synthesis and biological evaluation of piperazine derivatives as novel isoform selective voltage-gated sodium (Nav) 1.3 channel modulators
-
Sponges of the genus Agelas produce compounds that modulate the activity of voltage-gated sodium ion channels and contribute novel scaffolds for the development of compounds with activity against a plethora of biological targets. In particular, clathrodin and dibromosceptrin were reported to decrease the average maximum amplitude of inward sodium currents in isolated chick embryo sympathetic ganglia cells; we envisaged these compounds as a starting point to design novel Nav channel modulators. This endeavor was part of our long-term goal of designing a comprehensive library of Agelas alkaloid analogs that would cover a broader chemical space and allow us to examine the activity of such compounds on Nav channels. Our series of compounds was designed by maintaining the terminal structural features found in clathrodin while rigidizing the central part of the molecule and replacing the 3-aminopropene linker with a 4-methylenepiperazine moiety. Synthesised compounds were screened for inhibitory action against the human voltage-gated sodium channel isoforms Nav 1.3, Nav 1.4, cardiac Nav 1.5, and Nav 1.7 using an automated patch clamp electrophysiology technique. The results demonstrate that we have obtained a series of compounds with a modest but selective inhibitory activity against the Nav 1.3 channel isoform. The most potent compound showed selective activity against the Nav 1.3 channel isoform with an IC50 of 19 μM and is a suitable starting point for further development of selective Nav 1.3 channel modulators. Such compounds could prove to be beneficial as a pharmacological tool towards the development of novel therapeutically useful compounds in the treatment of pain.

- Synthesis and biological evaluation of substituted 4-(thiophen-2-ylmethyl)- 2H-phthalazin-1-ones as potent PARP-1 inhibitors
-
We have developed a series of substituted 4-(thiophen-2-ylmethyl)-2H- phthalazin-1-ones as potent PARP-1 inhibitors. Preliminary biological evaluation indicated that most compounds possessed inhibitory potencies comparable to, or higher than AZD-2281. Among these compounds, 18q appeared to be the most notable one, which displayed an 8-fold improvement in enzymatic activity compared to AZD-2281. These efforts lay the foundation for our further investigation.
