In vitro activity of novel dual action MDR anthranilamide modulators with inhibitory activity on CYP-450 (Part 2)
摘要:
Synthesis and in vitro cytotoxicity assays of new anthranilamide MDR modulators have been performed to assess their inhibition potency on the P-glycoprotein (P-gp) transporter. Previous studies showed that the replacement of the aromatic spacer group between nitrogen atoms (N-1 and N-2) in the P-gp inhibitor XR9576 with ethyl or propyl chain is optimal for P-gp inhibition potency. To confirm that observation, the ethyl or the propyl linker arm was replaced with a pyrrolidine or an alicyclic group such as cyclohexyl. In addition, an arylpiperazinyl group and two methoxyl groups onto the anthranilic part were introduced to assess their effect on the anti P-gp activity. Five molecules were prepared and evaluated on CEM/VLB500. All new anthranilamides were more potent than verapamil, most of them exhibited a lower cytotoxicity than XR9576. Compound 5 was the most potent and its inhibition activity was similar to XR9576. Interestingly, in vitro biotransformation studies of compounds 4 and 5 using human CYP-450 isoforms revealed, that conversely to XR9576, compounds 4 and 5 inhibited CYP3A4, an enzyme that colocalizes with P-gp in the intestine and contributes to tumor cell chemoresistance by enhancing the biodisposition of numerous drugs, notably paclitaxel. In that context, 5 might be suitable for further drug development. (C) 2007 Published by Elsevier Ltd.

Functionalized proline with double hydrogen bonding potential: highly enantioselective Michael addition of carbonyl compounds to β-nitrostyrenes in brine
synthetic manipulation of S-proline allows access to prolinamides 5–7 as organocatalysts capable of double hydrogen bonding for enantioselectiveMichaeladdition reactions of carbonyl compounds to β-nitrostyrenes. It is shown that prolinamide catalyst 7 leads to addition products with a high diastereo- as well as enantioselectivity. The transition state structure involving the binding of electrophilic
