Synthesis and SAR study of modulators inhibiting tRXRα-dependent AKT activation
摘要:
RXR alpha represents an intriguing and unique target for pharmacologic interventions. We recently showed that Sulindac and a designed analog could bind to RXR alpha and modulate its biological activity, including inhibition of the interaction of an N-terminally truncated RXR alpha (tRXR alpha) with the p85 alpha regulatory subunit of phosphatidylinositol-3-OH kinase (PI3K). Here we report the synthesis, testing and SAR of a series of novel analogs of Sulindac as potential modulators for inhibiting tRXR alpha-dependent AKT activation. A new compound 30 was identified to have improved biological activity. (C) 2013 Elsevier Masson SAS. All rights reserved.
