Use of a compound of Formula 1 for inducing differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells to chondrocytes, and a pharmaceutical composition for treating a cartilage disease, which includes chondrocytes in which differentiation from mesenchymal stem cells is induced by the compound of Formula 1, are provided. Differentiation of the mesenchymal stem cells treated with the compound of Formula 1 to chondrocytes is specifically induced, and thus the compound can be used to effectively treat a cartilage disease such as arthritis, cartilage damage, and a cartilage defect.

Recently we identified a novel therapeutic target and small molecule for regulating angiogenesis. Our study showed that ubiquinol-cytochrome c-reductase binding protein (UQCRB) of the mitochondrial complex III plays a crucial role in hypoxia-induced angiogenesis via mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS) mediated signaling. Herein, we developed new synthetic small molecules that specifically bind to UQCRB and regulate its function. To improve the pharmacological properties of 6-((1-hydroxynaphthalen 4-ylamino)dioxysulfone) 2H naphtho[1,8-bc]thiophen-2-one (HDNT), a small molecule that targets UQCRB, a series of HDNT derivatives were designed and synthesied. Several derivatives showed a significant increase in hypoxia inducible factor 1 alpha (HIF-1 alpha) inhibitory potency. compared to HDNT. The compounds bound to UQCRB and suppressed mitochondrial ROS-mediated hypoxic signaling, resulting in potent inhibitor of angiogenesis without inducing cytotoxicity. Notably, one of these new derivatives significantly suppressed tumor growth in a mouse xenograft model. Therefore, these mitochondrial UQCRB modulators could be potential leads for the development of novel antiangiogen agents.
