Investigations into the Origin of the Molecular Recognition of Several Adenosine Deaminase Inhibitors
摘要:
Inhibitors of adenosine deaminase (ADA, EC 3 5 4 4) are potential therapeutic agents for the treatment of various health disorders Several highly potent inhibitors were previously identified, yet they exhibit unacceptable toxicities We performed a SAR study involving a series of C2 or C8 substituted purine-riboside analogues with a view to discover less potent inhibitors with a lesser toxicity We found that any substitution at C8 position of nebularine resulted in total loss of activity toward calf intestinal ADA However several 2-substituted-adenosine, 8-aza-adenosine, and nebularine analogues exhibited inhibitory activity Specifically, 2-Cl-purine riboside, 8-aza-2-thiohexyl adenosine, 2-thiohexyl adenosine, and 2-MeS-purine riboside were found to be competitive inhibitors of ADA with K-i values of 25, 22, 6, and 3 mu M, respectively We concluded that electronic parameters are not major recognition determinants of ADA but rather steric parameters A C2 substituent which fits ADA hydrophobic pocket and improves H-bonding with the enzyme makes a good inhibitor In addition, a gg rotamer about C4'-C5' bond is apparently an important recognition determinant

A series of 2-substituted-4,6-diaminipyrimidine derivatives were synthesized and evaluated for their dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) inhibitory activity. Saturation transfer difference (STD) 1H-NMR experiments were used to probe the binding characteristics of the compounds with human DHFR enzyme. The most potent molecules, 12 and 15, in enzyme assay study showed the best results in STD experiments indicating their intimate interaction with the receptor. The docking studies were followed to explain the structural basis for the observed interaction between the ligands and DHFR. All the compounds were also assayed in vitro for their growth inhibitory activity on MCF-7, HepG2, SKHep1, and Hela tumor cell lines. Compounds 16, 17, and 22 demonstrated the most potent in vitro anti-proliferative activity among the others.
