Aurora B kinase plays an important role in the cell normal mitosis and overexpresses in a variety of tumors. Inhibition of Aurora B kinase resulted in an apoptosis of cancer cells, which prevented tumor growth in xenograft models. In this Letter, we developed a luminescent kinase assay to perform high-throughput screening for identification of small molecule Aurora B inhibitors. Two 3,5,6-substituted indolin-2-one derivatives were identified within an in-house compound library. Their new derivatives were then designed and synthesized that resulting two new inhibitors of Aurora B kinase with improved potency. Docking simulation further demonstrated the proposed binding modes between indolin-2-one inhibitor and Aurora B. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
