Structure–activity relationship study of taxoids for their ability to activate murine macrophages as well as inhibit the growth of macrophage-like cells
摘要:
A series of new taxoids modified at the C-3', C-3'N, C-10, C-2 and C-7 positions has been designed, synthesized and evaluated for their potency to induce NO and TNF production by peritoneal murine macrophages (Mphi) from LPS-responsive C3H/HeN and LPS-hyporesponsive C3H/HeJ strains and human blood cells, and for their ability to inhibit the growth of Mphi-like cell lines J774.1 and J7.DEF3. The SAR-study has shown that the nature of the substituents at these positions have critical effect on the induction of TNF and NO production by Mphi. Positions G-3' and C-10 are the most flexible and an intriguing effect of the length of the substituents at the C-10 position is observed for taxoids bearing a straight chain alkanoyl moiety. An aromatic group at the C-3'N and C-2 positions is required for the activity, while only hydroxyl or acetyl substituents seem to be tolerated at the C-7 position. The natural stereochemistry in the C-13 isoserine side chain of the taxoids is an absolute requirement for macrophage activation. It has also been clearly shown that there is no correlation between the ability of the taxoids to induce TNF/NO production in C3H/HeN M and the cytotoxicity against Mphi-like cells.

A series of new 3'-(2-methyl-1-propenyl) and 3'-(2-methylpropyl) taxoids with modifications at C-10 was synthesized by means of the beta-lactam synthon method using 10-modified 7-(triethylsilyl)-10-deacetylbaccatin III derivatives. The new taxoids thus synthesized show excellent cytotoxicity against human ovarian (A121), non-small-cell lung (A549), colon (HT-29), and breast (MCF-7) cancer cell lines. All but one of these new taxoids possess better activity than paclitaxel and docetaxel in the same assay, i.e., the IC50 values of almost all the taxoids are in the subnanomolar level. It is found that a variety of modifications at C-10 is tolerated for the activity against normal cancer cell lines, but the activity against a drug-resistant human breast cancer cell line expressing MDR phenotype (MCF7-R) is highly dependent on the structure of the C-10 modifier. A number of the new taxoids exhibit remarkable activity (IC50 = 2.1-9.1 nM) against MCF7-R. Among these, three new taxoids, SB-T-1213 (4a), SB-T-1214 (4b), and SB-T-1102 (5a), are found to be exceptionally potent, possessing 2 orders of magnitude better activity than paclitaxel and docetaxel. The observed exceptional activity of these taxoids may well be ascribed to an effective inhibition of P-glycoprotein binding by the modified C-10 moieties. The new taxoid SB-T-1213 (4a) shows an excellent activity (T/C = 0% at 12.4 and 7.7 mg/kg/dose, log(10) cell kill = 2.3 and 2.0, respectively) against B16 melanoma in B6D2F(1) mice via intravenous administration.
