Antiandrogenic, Maspin Induction, and Antiprostate Cancer Activities of Tanshinone IIA and Its Novel Derivatives with Modification in Ring A
摘要:
Expression of metastatic suppressor maspin is lost in advanced prostate cancer. Clinically relevant mutations in androgen receptor (AR) convert antiandrogens into AR agonists, promoting prostate tumor growth. We discovered tanshinone IIA (TS-IIA) is a potent antagonist of mutated ARs and induces maspin expression through AR. TS-IIA suppressed AR expression and induced apoptosis in LNCaP cells. Syntheses of TS-IIA derivatives (1-9) revealed that the 4,4-dimethyl group at ring A is important for TS-IIA's antiandrogenic and maspin induction activities.

An efficient four-step route to the tetracyclic aminoquinone moiety of marmycin A that proceeds in 41% overall yield from 5-nitronaphthoquinone and 5-methyl-1-vinylcyclohexene will facilitate preparation of marmycin A analogues for biological evaluation. The Diels-Alder reaction gave exclusively the desired adduct that is favored by steric considerations rather than the regioisomeric adduct that is favored by electronic considerations.
