N-Benzoyl anthranilic acid derivatives as selective inhibitors of aldo–keto reductase AKR1C3
摘要:
Human aldo-keto reductases AKR1C1-AKR1C3 are involved in the biosynthesis and inactivation of steroid hormones and prostaglandins and thus represent attractive targets for the development of new drugs. We synthesized a series of N-benzoyl anthranilic acid derivatives and tested their inhibitory activity on AKR1C enzymes. Our data show that these derivatives inhibit AKR1C1-AKR1C3 isoforms with low micromolar potency. In addition, five selective inhibitors of AKR1C3 were identified. The most promising inhibitors were compounds 10 and 13, with IC50 values of 0.31 mu M and 0.35 mu M for AKR1C3, respectively. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
