Docking-Based Development of Purine-like Inhibitors of Cyclin-Dependent Kinase-2
摘要:
The cell division cycle is controlled by cyclin-dependent kinases (cdk), which consist of a catalytic subunit (cdk1-cdk8) and a regulatory subunit (cyclin A-H). Purine-like inhibitors of cyclin-dependent kinases have recently been found to be of potential use as anticancer drugs. Rigid and flexible docking techniques were used for analysis of binding mode and design of new inhibitors. X-ray structures of three (ATP, olomoucine, roscovitine) cdk2 complexes were available at the beginning of the study and were used to optimize the docking parameters. The new potential inhibitors were then docked into the cdk2 enzyme, and the enzyme/inhibitor interaction energies were calculated and tested against the assayed activities of cdk1 (37 compounds) and cdk2 (9 compounds). A significant rank correlation between the activity and the rigid docking interaction energy has been found. This implies that (i) the rigid docking can be used as a tool for qualitative prediction of activity and (ii) values obtained by the rigid docking technique into the cdk2 active site can also be used for the prediction of cdk1 activity. While the resulting geometries obtained by the rigid docking are in good agreement with the X-ray data, the flexible docking did not always produce the same inhibitor conformation as that found in the crystal.

In this study, a series of 2-[p-fluorophenyl]-6-substituted-9H-purine analogues were designed and synthesized as CHK1 inhibitors, among which compound b22 was the most potent. b22 exhibited nearly no antiproliferative activity toward HT29 cells and displayed a significant antitumor potentiating effect on HT29 cells when treated in combination with gemcitabine (Gem). A time-dependent assay found that

N6-Substituted 9-methyladenines are potent antagonists of the activation of A1 adenosine receptors. The present study assessed the effect of N6 and N-9 substituents on the binding of adenines to the A1 and A2 receptors, respectively, of rat brain cortex and striatum and also on the antagonism of the A2 receptor mediated stimulation of the adenylate cyclase of PC12 cells by N-ethyladenosine-5'-uronamide. The potency ranking of 9-substituted adenines varied directly with the hydrophobicity of the substituent: cyclopentyl > phenyl > tetrahydrofuryl > methyl > 2-hydroxyethyl. The 9-substituted adenines showed little selectivity for either receptor and the R enantiomer of N6-(1-phenyl-2-propyl)-9-methyladenine was only 4-fold more potent than the S enantiomer at the A1 receptor. An N6-cyclopentyl substituent increased potency at the A1 receptor and decreased potency at the A2 receptor, resulting in selectivity for the A1 receptor of up to 39-fold. The N6-cyclophenyl group completely overshadowed the effect of the hydrophobicity of the 9-substituent. A 2-chloro substituent did not alter the potency of an N6-substituted 9-methyladenine.
