Design and synthesis of a cephalosporin-retinoic acid prodrug activated by a monoclonal antibody–β-lactamase conjugate
摘要:
Two novel series of all-trans-beta -retinoic acid derivatives were synthesized and found to possess anticancer activity. The first series, cephalosporin 3 ' -retinoic esters 6 and 7 were, respectively, obtained by the condensation of all-trans-beta -retinoic acid (2) with cephalosporins 4 and 5. The second series, 7-(retinamido)cephalosporins 11 and 12, were synthesized, respectively, by the condensation of 2 with cephalosporins 9 and 10. These four heretofore undescribed compounds 6, 7, 11, and 12 showed inhibitory activity against murine leukemias (L1210 and P388), sarcoma 180, breast carcinoma (MCF7), and human T-lymphocytes (Molt4/C8 and CEM/0). They also inhibited squamous metaplasia and keratinization in tracheal or.-an cultures derived from vitamin-A-deficient hamsters. Moreover, cephalosporin 3 ' -retinoic ester 7 exhibited enhanced activity against keratinization with ED50 = 3.91 x 10(-11) M in the presence of a beta -lactamase from Staphylococcus aureus 95. A tumor targeting fusion protein (dsFv3-beta -lactamase) was also used in conjunction with cephem-based retinoid 7 and the potency of 7 toward L1210, P388, and MCF7 was found to approach that of the free retinoic acid (2). In the presence of dsFv3-beta -lactamase, tumor cells were found to be much more susceptible to retinoid 7 than normal human embryonic lung cells. These notions provide a new approach to the use of beta -retinoic acid for antitumor therapy. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.

Syntheses of the cis-configurated isopenam 9 (Scheme 1), isocephem 14 (Scheme 2), and isocephem 19 (Scheme 3) are described. The key step in the preparation of 14 and 19 involved a Pummerer-type rearrangement of the corresponding sulfoxides 12 and 18. These β-lactams were found to possess biological activity against several pathogenic microorganisms in vitro. The electronic activation of the lactam

The present disclosure provides esters of a retinoid and an alcohol selected from the group consisting of tocopherols and tert-butyl hydroquinone, such as esters of Formula (I). The present disclosure also provides compositions and kits comprising the esters, methods of producing the esters, and methods of using the esters (e.g., for treating or preventing a skin disease, slowing the ageing of the skin, improving the appearance of the skin, or modulating a retinoid receptor).
