Design, Synthesis, and Antiviral Activity of Entry Inhibitors That Target the CD4-Binding Site of HIV-1
摘要:
The CD4 binding site on HIV-1 gp120 has been validated as a drug target to prevent HIV-1 entry to cells. Previously, we identified two small molecule inhibitors consisting of a 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine ring linked by an oxalamide to a p-halide-substituted phenyl group, which target this site, specifically, a cavity termed "Phe43 cavity". Here we use synthetic chemistry, functional assessment, and structure-based analysis to explore variants of each region of these inhibitors for improved antiviral properties. Alterations of the phenyl group and of the oxalamide linker indicated that these regions were close to optimal in the original lead compounds. Design of a series of compounds, where the tetramethylpiperidine ring was replaced with new scaffolds, led to improved antiviral activity. These new scaffolds provide insight into the surface chemistry at the entrance of the cavity and offer additional opportunities by which to optimize further these potential-next-generation therapeutics and microbicides against HIV-1.

development, chemical induction of male sterility mediated technology based on chemical hybridizing agents (CHAs) holds a great potential. N-Acylaniline derivatives, namely, ethyl 4'-fluoro oxanilate (1) and ethyl 4'-trifluoromethyl oxanilate (2) containing halogen atoms in the para position of the aryl ring and substituted amide linkage (-CO-NH-) in the acyl side chain induced >98% spikelet sterility on three
Moreover, the tubulinpolymerization experiments indicated that compound 6e could inhibit the tubulinpolymerization. Immunofluorescence study and cell cycle analysis clearly revealed compound 6e could disrupt intracellular microtubule organization, arrest cell cycle at the G2/M phase. In addition, moleculardocking analysis demonstrated the interaction of compound 6e at the colchicine-bindingsite of tubulin
设计了一系列以1,2,4-三唑为氢键受体的新型5-甲基-4-芳基-3-(4-芳基哌嗪-1-羰基)-4 H -1,2,4-三唑合成并评估了它们的抗增殖和微管蛋白聚合抑制活性。它们中的一些在体外对三种癌细胞系(包括SGC-7901,A549和HeLa)表现出中等活性。化合物6e对三种癌细胞表现出最高的效力。此外,微管蛋白聚合实验表明化合物6e可以抑制微管蛋白聚合。免疫荧光研究和细胞周期分析清楚地表明了化合物6e可能破坏细胞内微管组织,使细胞周期停滞在G2 / M期。另外,分子对接分析表明化合物6e在微管蛋白的秋水仙碱结合位点相互作用。这些初步结果表明,化合物6e是一种新型秋水仙碱结合位点抑制剂,值得进一步研究。

Stearoyl-CoA desaturase (SCD) catalyzes the first step in the conversion of saturated fatty acids to unsaturated fatty acids. Unsaturated fatty acids are required for membrane integrity and for cell proliferation. For these reasons, inhibitors of SCD represent potential treatments for cancer. However, systemically active SCD inhibitors result in skin toxicity, which presents an obstacle to their development

The direct oxidative cleavage of activated alkynes via hydroamination has been described using organic photocatalyst under visible-light irradiation at room temperature. In this reaction, the single electron oxidation of an in situ formed enamine followed by radical coupling with an oxidant finally delivers the oxamate. The key features of this photocatalytic reaction are the mild reaction conditions
