Efficient synthesis and cell migration inhibitory effect of substituted benzamidothiazolylpyrazole-capped AWD*I-NH2
摘要:
Substituted (2-benzamidothiazol-5-yl)pyrazole-capped AWD*I-NH2 were synthesized and their antimigration activity was studied. The improved efficiency and scalability of the analog synthesis was achieved via a late-stage diversification of the benzoyl group and a convergent route in which the bisazole capping agents and off-resin peptide AWD*I-NH2 were prepared in parallel and coupled together in solution at the last step. Bioassay results indicate that all the peptidomimetics can significantly inhibit the migration of breast cancer cells MDA-MB-231 but possess no apparent cytotoxicity. In general, the antimigration potency of the peptidomimetics is correlated to the electron-withdrawing capacity of the substituents on the terminal phenyl ring. The inhibitory effect shows dose-dependent and holds also against lung and cervical cancer cells. The level of f-actin was reduced dramatically in cells treated with the inhibitor, suggesting that the migration inhibitory effect is related to the disruption of cell locomotive protrusions.

Deletion of phenylalanine residue 508 (Delta F508) in the cystic fibrosis (CF) transmembrane conductance regulator protein (CFTR) is a major cause of CF. Small molecule "correctors" of defective A Delta 508-CFTR cellular processing hold promise for CF therapy. We previously identified and characterized bithiazole CF corrector 1 and s-cis-locked bithiazole 2. Herein, we report the regiodivergent synthesis of N gamma and N beta isomers of thiazole-tethered pyrazoles with improved hydrophilicity compared to bithiazoles. We synthesized a focused library of 54 pyrazolylthiazoles 3, which included examples of both regioisomers 4 and 5. The thiazole-tethered pyrazoles allowed incorporation of property-modulating functionality on the pyrazole ring (ester, acid, and amide) while retaining Delta F508-CFTR corrector activity (EC50) of under 1 mu M. The most active pyrazolylthiazole (14h) has an experimentally determined log P of 4.1, which is 1.2 log units lower than bithiazole CF corrector 1.
