- Design, synthesis, and biological evaluation of cyano-substituted 2,4-diarylaminopyrimidines as potent JAK3 inhibitors for the treatment of B-cell lymphoma
-
A series of cyano-substituted 2,4-diarylaminopyrimidines was designed and synthesized as potent non-covalent JAK3 inhibitors. Among the derivatives synthesized, 9o (IC50 = 22.86 nM), 9 k (IC50 = 21.58 nM), and 9j (IC50 = 20.66 nM) demonstrated inhibitory potencies against JAK3 similar to the known JAK3 inhibitor tofacitinib (IC50 = 20.10 nM). Moreover, 9o displayed potent anti-proliferative activities against Raji and Ramos cells, with IC50 values of 0.9255 μM and 1.405 μM, respectively. In addition, 9o demonstrated low toxicity in normal HBE (human bronchial epithelial cells, IC50 > 10 μΜ) and L-02 (human liver cells, IC50 = 3.104 μΜ) cells. Analysis of the mode of action by flow cytometry indicated that 9o effectively arrested Raji cells at the G2/M phase. Taken together, these results suggested that 9o might be a promising candidate for development as a potential treatment for B-cell lymphoma.

- Synthesis and biological activity of thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidines as potent JAK3 inhibitors for the treatment of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis
-
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a serious and fatal lung disease, with a median survival of only 3–5 years from diagnosis. Janus kinase 3 (JAK3) has a well-established role in the pathogenesis of various autoimmune diseases, including rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and autoimmune-related pulmonary fibrosis. In this study, through the use of a conformationally-constrained design strategy, a series of thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidines were synthesized as potent JAK3 inhibitors for the treatment of IPF. Among them, the most potent JAK3 inhibitor, namely 8e (IC50 = 1.38 nM), significantly reduced the degree of airsacculitis and fibrosis according to hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining assay for the lung tissue in the bleomycin (BLM)-induced pulmonary fibrosis mouse model. The clear reduction of the lung collagen deposition by the determination of Masson and hydroxyproline (HYP) content also demonstrated its efficacy in the treatment of fibrosis. In addition, 8e also reduced the expression of the inflammatory markers IL-6, IL-17A, TNF-α and malondialdehyde (MDA) in lung tissue, which indicated its higher anti-inflammatory activity compared with that of the reference agents (nintedanib and gefitinib). Furthermore, it possessed low cytotoxicity against normal human bronchial epithelia (HBE) cells (IC50 > 39.0 μM) and C57BL mice. All these evaluated biological properties suggest that 8e may be a potential JAK3 inhibitor for the treatment of IPF.

- Discovery of 4-piperazinyl-2-aminopyrimidine derivatives as dual inhibitors of JAK2 and FLT3
-
Hybridization strategy is an effective strategy to obtain multi-target inhibitors in drug design. In this study, we assembled the pharmacophores of momelotinib and tandutinib to get a series of 4-piperazinyl-2-aminopyrimidine derivatives. All compounds were tested for the inhibition of JAK2 and FLT3 enzymes, of which, compounds with potent enzyme activities were assayed for antiproliferative activities against three cancer cell lines (HEL, MV4-11, and HL60). The structure-activity relationship studies were conducted through variations in two regions, the “A” phenyl ring and “B” phenyl ring. Compound 14j showed the most balanced in vitro inhibitory activity against JAK2 and FLT3 (JAK2 IC50 = 27 nM, FLT3 IC50 = 30 nM), and it also showed potent inhibition against the above tested cell lines. In the cellular context, 14j strongly induced apoptosis by arresting cell cycle in the G1/S phase, and was selected as a promising JAK2/FLT3 dual inhibitor.

- Synthesis and biological evaluation of morpholine-substituted diphenylpyrimidine derivatives (Mor-DPPYs) as potent EGFR T790M inhibitors with improved activity toward the gefitinib-resistant non-small cell lung cancers (NSCLC)
-
Potential new EGFRT790M inhibitors comprised of structurally modified diphenylpyrimidine derivatives bearing a morpholine functionality (Mor-DPPYs) were used to improve the activity and selectivity of gefitinib-resistant non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) treatment. This led to the identification of inhibitor 10c, which displayed high activity against EGFRT790M/L858R kinase (IC50?=?0.71?nM) and repressed H1975?cell replication harboring EGFRT790M mutations at a concentration of 0.037?μM. Inhibitor 10c demonstrated high selectivity (SI?=?631.9) for T790M-containing EGFR mutants over wild type EGFR, suggesting that it will cause less side effects. Moreover, this compound also shows promising antitumor efficacy in a murine EGFRT790M/L858R-driven H1975 xenograft model without affecting body weight. This study provides new potential lead compounds for further development of anti-NSCLC drugs.

- Discovery of biphenyl-based VEGFR-2 inhibitors. Part 3: Design, synthesis and 3D-QSAR studies
-
VEGFR-2 plays an essential role in angiogenesis and is a central target for anticancer drug discovery. In order to develop novel VEGFR-2 inhibitors, we designed and synthesized 33 biphenyl amides based on our previously reported lead compound. The biological results indicated that four compounds (18b, 20e, 20h and 20j) are potent VEGFR-2 inhibitors which are comparable to positive control. Compound 18b displayed the most potent VEGFR-2 inhibition with IC50 value of 2.02 nM. Moreover, it exhibited promising antiproliferative activity against MCF-7 and SMMC-7721 cells with IC50 values of 1.47 μM and 5.98 μM, respectively. Molecular docking and 3D-QSAR studies were also carried out. The results indicated that these biphenyl amides could serve as promising leads for further optimization as novel VEGFR-2 inhibitors.

- Design, synthesis and biological evaluation of pyridin-3-yl pyrimidines as potent Bcr-Abl inhibitors
-
A series of pyridin-3-yl pyrimidines was synthesized and evaluated for their Bcr-Abl inhibitory and anticancer activity. The preliminary results indicated that some compounds were promising anticancer agents. Compounds A2, A8, and A9 exhibited potent Bcr-Abl inhibitory activity, suggesting that aniline containing halogen substituents might be important for biological activity. Molecular docking was carried out to investigate the binding mode of them with Bcr-Abl. Details of synthesis and SAR studies of these compounds are described. A series of phenylaminopyrimidines was designed and synthesized as potent Bcr-Abl inhibitors. The screening of these rationally designed compounds for antitumor activity had identified three candidate leads which could be further optimized to improve the anticancer activities.

- Design, synthesis and biological activities of Nilotinib derivates as antitumor agents
-
A novel class of Nilotinib derivatives, B1-B20, were synthesized in high yields using various substituted anilines. All the title compounds were evaluated for their inhibitory activities against Bcr-Abl and antiproliferative effects on human leukemia cell (K562). The pharmacological results indicated that some compounds exhibited promising anticancer activity. In particular, compound B14 containing tertiary amine side chain exhibited Bcr-Abl inhibitory activity similar to that of Nilotinib. It was suggested that the introduction of the tertiary amine moiety could improve Bcr-Abl inhibitory activity and antitumor effects.

- Discovery of potent and selective rhodanine type IKKβ inhibitors by hit-to-lead strategy
-
Regulation of NF-κB activation through the inhibition of IKKβ has been identified as a promising target for the treatment of inflammatory and autoimmune disease such as rheumatoid arthritis. In order to develop novel IKKβ inhibitors, we performed high throughput screening toward around 8000 library compounds, and identified a hit compound containing rhodanine moiety. We modified the structure of hit compound to obtain potent and selective IKKβ inhibitors. Throughout hit-to-lead studies, we have discovered optimized compounds which possess blocking effect toward NF-κB activation and TNFα production in cell as well as inhibition activity against IKKβ. Among them, compound 3q showed the potent inhibitory activity against IKKβ, and excellent selectivity over other kinases such as p38α, p38β, JNK1, JNK2, and JNK3 as well as IKKα.

- 4′-Alkoxyl substitution enhancing the anti-mitotic effect of 5-(3′,4′,5′-substituted)anilino-4-hydroxy-8-nitroquinazolines as a novel class of anti-microtubule agents
-
Mitosis inhibitors are powerful anticancer drugs. Based on a novel anti-microtubule agent of 5-(4′-methoxy)anilino-4-hydroxy-8-nitroquinazoline, a series of 5-(3′,4′,5′-substituted)anilino-4-hydroxy-8- nitroquinazolines were designed and synthesized to investigate the effect of the substitution on the inhibitory activity against mitotic progression of tumor cells. The large alkoxyl substitution on the 4′-position of 5-anilino ring is beneficial for the potency. The 5-(3′,4′,5′-trimethoxy)anilino-8-nitroquinazoline (1h) displays an overwhelming activity in arresting the cells at the G2/M phase, providing a promising new template for further development of potent microtubule-targeted anti-mitotic drugs.
