The overexpression of P21-activated kinase 1 (PAK1) is associated with poor prognosis in several cancers, which has emerged as a promising drug targets. Based on high-throughput virtual screening strategy, tetrahydrothieno [2,3-c]pyridine scaffold was identified as an initial lead for targeting PAK1. Herein we reported our structure-based optimisation strategy to discover a potent PAK1 inhibitor (7j) which displayed potent PAK1 inhibition and antiproliferatory activity in MDA-MB-231 cells. 7j induced obviously G2/M cell cycle arrest via PAK1-cdc25c-cdc2 pathway, and also inhibited MAPK-ERK and MAPK-JNK cascade to induce MDA-MB-231 cell death. Together, these results provided a novel chemical scaffold as PAK1 inhibitor for breast cancer treatment.

Bromodomain-containing protein 4 (BRD4) and histone deacetylases (HDAC) are both attractive epigenetic targets in cancer and other chronic diseases. Based on the integrated fragment-based drug design, synthesis, and in vitro and in vivo evaluations, a series of novel thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidine-based hydroxamic acid derivatives are discovered as selective BRD4-HDAC dual inhibitors. Compound 17c is the most potent inhibitor for BRD4 and HDAC with IC50 values at nanomolar levels, as well as the expression level of c-Myc, and increases the acetylation of histone H3. Moreover, 17c presents inhibitory effects on the proliferation of colorectal carcinoma (CRC) cells via inducing autophagic cell death. It also has a good pharmacokinetic profile in rats and oral bioavailability of 40.5%. In the HCT-116 xenograft in vivo models, 17c displays potent inhibitory efficiency on tumor growth by inducing autophagic cell death and suppressing IL6-JAK-STAT signaling pathways. Our results suggest that the BRD4-HDAC dual inhibition might be an attractive therapeutic strategy for CRC.
