Copper catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition was used for the first time to access a small series of eight novel 1,2,3-triazole linked isoflavone benzodiazepine hybrids. As part of this work, a previously unreported alkyne substituted pyrrolo[1,4]benzodiaz

Our group has previously reported a series of isoflavone derivatives with antidyslipidemic activity. With this background, a series of isoflavone analogs of GW4064 were designed, synthesized and evaluated the lipid-lowering activity of analogs. As a result, most of compounds significantly reduced the lipid accumulation in 3T3-L1 adipocytes and four of them (10a, 11, 15c and 15d) showed stronger inhibitory than GW4064. The most potent compound 15d exhibited promising agonistic activity for FXR in a cell-based luciferase reporter assay. Meanwhile, 15d up-regulated FXR, SHP and BSEP gene expression and down-regulated the mRNA expression of lipogenesis gene SREBP-1c. Besides, an improved safety profile of 15d was also observed in a HepG2 cytotoxicity assay compared with GW4064. The obtained biological results were further confirmed by a molecular docking study showing that 15d fitted well in the binding pocket of FXR and interacted with some key residues simultaneously.

Continuing our search to find more potent and selective 5-LOX inhibitors, we present now the enzymatic evaluation of seventeen isoflavones (IR) and nine isoflavans (HIR), and their in vitro and in cellulo potency against human leukocyte 5-LOX. Of the 26 compounds tested, 10 isoflavones and 9 isoflavans possessed micromolar potency, but only three were selective against 5-LOX (IR-2, HIR-303, and HIR-309), with IC50 values at least 10 times lower than those of 12-LOX, 15-LOX-1, and 15-LOX-2. Of these three, IR-2 (6,7-dihydroxy-4-methoxy-isoflavone, known as texasin) was the most selective 5-LOX inhibitor, with over 80-fold potency difference compared with other isozymes; Steered Molecular Dynamics (SMD) studies supported these findings. The presence of the catechol group on ring A (6,7-dihydroxy versus 7,8-dihydroxy) correlated with their biological activity, but the reduction of ring C, converting the isoflavones to isoflavans, and the substituent positions on ring B did not affect their potency against 5-LOX. Two of the most potent/selective inhibitors (HIR-303 and HIR-309) were reductive inhibitors and were potent against 5-LOX in human whole blood, indicating that isoflavans can be potent and selective inhibitors against human leukocyte 5-LOX in vitro and in cellulo. Of the 26 compounds tested, 10 isoflavones and 9 isoflavans possessed micromolar potency, but only three were selective against 5-LOX (IR-2, HIR-303, and HIR-309), with IC50 values at least 10 times lower than those of 12-LOX, 15-LOX-1, and 15-LOX-2. Docking and steered molecular dynamics were performed to determinate the structure-activity relationship.
