Synthesis, biophysical and biological evaluation of 3,6-bis-amidoacridines with extended 9-anilino substituents as potent G-quadruplex-binding telomerase inhibitors
摘要:
Telomerase and telomere maintenance are emerging targets for the treatment of human cancers. We report here on the targeting of the telomere-telomerase complex with a series of small molecules based on an acridine platform. A series of 3,6-bis-amidoacridines with extended 9-anilino sidechains were designed and synthesised as potential telomeric G-quadruplex DNA (G4) interacting compounds. G4-stabilisation was assessed using a high-throughput FRET (fluorescence resonance energy transfer) assay and telomerase inhibition quantified by a modified TRAP (telomerase repeat amplification protocol) method. Within the series, the compounds showed significant G4-stabilising ability (DeltaT(m) values of 25-36degreesC at 1 muM concentration) and telomerase inhibition in the nanomolar region ((EC50)-E-tel values of 80-318 nM). Furthermore, a direct correlation between the FRET and TRAP assays was observed, supporting the use of the rapid screening FRET assay for early assessment of potential G4-stabilising telomerase inhibitors.

multitarget-directed ligands (MTDLs) to confront the key pathological aberrations. A novel series of triazinoindole derivatives were designed and synthesized. In vitrostudies revealed that all the compounds showed moderate to good anticholinesterase activity; the most active compound 23e showed an IC50 value of 0.56 ± 0.02 μM for AChE and an IC50 value of 1.17 ± 0.09 μM for BuChE. These derivatives are also
A new series of 2‐(diethylaminoalkyl)‐isoindoline‐1,3‐dione derivatives intended as dual binding site cholinesterase inhibitors were designed using molecular modeling and evaluated as inhibitors of acetylcholinesterase (AChE), butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE), and the formation of the β‐amyloid (Aβ) plaques. For AChE inhibitory activity, the spectrophotometric method of Ellman and the electrophoretically
