Synthesis and biological evaluation of novel spin labeled 18β-glycyrrhetinic acid derivatives
摘要:
Eighteen novel spin-labeled 18 beta-glycyrrhetinic acid (GA) derivatives were designed, synthesized, and evaluated for cytotoxicity against four human tumor cell lines (A-549, DU-145, KB and KBvin). Most of the derivatives showed more significant cytotoxicity than that of the parent compound GA. The best compound, 6j, with a tryptophan amino moiety and piperidine nitroxyl radical showed GI(50) values of 13.7-15.0 mu M, and was fivefold more potent than GA. In a mechanism of action study, compound 7a was confirmed as a 20S proteasome inhibitor in both in vitro and cell-based assays. These findings support further optimization efforts based on 18 beta-GA as a lead compound to develop potential anticancer drug candidates. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
Extensive research effort has been put in pentacyclic triterpenoids due to their numerous biological activities. However, their poor water solubility and low oral bioavailability limit their antitumor effects in vivo. To address these issues, 37 triterpenoid acid derivatives linked to l-phenylalanine or l-proline were designed and synthesized in this study. Structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies

Conjugates of glycyrrhetic acid (GLA) with amino acids (L-isoleucine, -leucine, -valine, and -phenylalanine) were synthesized by the acid-chloride method using methyl or tert-butyl esters of the acids. Tests in MDCK cell culture showed that the GLA conjugate with phenylalanine exhibited high antiviral activity against influenza A/H1N1/pdm09 virus (ED50 = 4.4 μg/mL, SI = 161).
