Design, synthesis and biological evaluation of 17-arylmethylamine-17-demethoxygeldanamycin derivatives as potent Hsp90 inhibitors
摘要:
Thirty-three 17-arylmethylamine-substituted derivatives of geldanamycin (GA) were designed, synthesized and evaluated for the anti-proliferation activity on human cancer cell lines, LNCaP and MDA-MB-231. Three derivatives (22, 33 and 34) exhibited potent cytotoxicity with IC50 values range from 0.05 to 0.51 mu M against both cell lines. Hepatotoxicity test in mice demonstrated that the levels of both AST and ALT of 34-treated group were lower than that of 17-AAG group. Western blot assay indicated that 34 was more potent than 17-AAG in the down-regulation of Hsp90 client proteins CDK4, Her2, EGFR and Raf. Moreover, 34 showed excellent in vivo antitumor activity in the MDA-MB-231 xenograft nude mice, which is superior to 22 and 33, and 17-AAG, indicating that 34 was a promising antitumor candidate. Additionally, preliminary structure activity relationship (SAR) and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of this new series of GA derivatives were also investigated, suggesting a theoretical model of 17-arylmethylamine geldanamycins binding to Hsp90.
