- Activity of 2,6,9-trisubstituted purines as potent PDGFRα kinase inhibitors with antileukaemic activity
-
Receptor tyrosine kinase PDGFRα is often constitutively activated in various tumours and is regarded as a drug target. Here, we present a collection of 2,6,9-trisubstituted purines with nanomolar potency against PDGFRα and strong and selective cytotoxicity in the human eosinophilic leukaemia cell line EOL-1 that expresses the FIP1L1-PDGFRA oncogene. In treated EOL-1 cells, the example compound 14q inhibited the autophosphorylation of PDGFRα and the phosphorylation of STAT3 and ERK1/2. Interestingly, we observed pronounced and even increased effects of 14q on PDGFRα and some of its downstream signalling pathways after drug washout. In accordance with suppressed PDGFRα signalling, treated cells were arrested in the G1 phase of the cell cycle and eventually underwent apoptosis. Our results show that substituted purines can be used as specific modulators of eosinophilic leukaemia.

- Structure-activity relationship study of E6 as a novel necroptosis inducer
-
Necroptosis inducers represent a promising potential treatment for drug-resistant cancer. We herein describe the structure modification of E6, which was identified recently as a potent and selective necroptosis inducer. The studies described herein demonstrate for the first time that functionalized biphenyl derivatives possess necroptosis inducer activity. Furthermore, these studies have led to the identification of two promising compounds (5h and 5j) that can be used for further optimization studies as well as mechanism of action investigations.

- An active, general, and long-lived palladium catalyst for cross-couplings of deactivated (hetero)aryl chlorides and bromides with arylboronic acids
-
An active, general, and long-lived palladium catalyst for Suzuki-Miyaura reactions of aryl and heteroaryl chlorides deactivated by steric hindrance, electron richness, and coordinating functional groups is reported. In reactions of arylbromide bearing two o-tert-butyl substituents, C(sp3)-H arylation of the tert-butyl group, rather than the Suzuki-Miyaura reaction, proceeded in excellent yield. The key to the success of the reactions was the development of biphenylene-substituted dicyclohexylruthenocenylphosphine (CyR-Phos) as a supporting ligand.
