Synthesis and structure-activity studies of a series of [(hydroxybenzyl)amino]salicylates as inhibitors of EGF receptor-associated tyrosine kinase activity
摘要:
The synthesis and structure-activity relationships of a series of [(hydroxybenzylidene)amino] salicylates and a series of [(hydroxybenzyl)amino] salicylates as inhibitors of EGF receptor-associated tyrosine kinase activity are described. Their inhibitory potency was evaluated in vitro using ER 22 cell membranes (CCL 39 cells transfected with EGF receptor) as an enzyme source and the tridecapeptide RRSrc (RRLIEDAEYAARG) as substrate. Their cellular activity was measured by inhibition of the EGF-stimulated DNA synthesis of ER 22 cells. Chemical modifications were made to analyze the role of the different substituents. The amino series was found to be more active than the imino series. The hydroquinone moiety appears to be essential for tyrosine kinase inhibitory activity in the series of 5-[(2,5-dihydroxybenzyl)amino]salicylates. Comparison of the imino and amino series by molecular modeling techniques provides further evidence in support of the hypothesis that the important reduced linking chain, CH2NH, allows the correct positioning of the 2,5-dihydroxybenzyl ring, possibly in a cis-like conformational arrangement.
Structure-Activity Relationships in a Series of 5-[(2,5-Dihydroxybenzyl)amino]salicylate Inhibitors of EGF-Receptor-Associated Tyrosine Kinase: Importance of Additional Hydrophobic Aromatic Interactions
Potent inhibitors of EGF-dependent protein tyrosine kinase (PTK) activity were synthesized in a series of 5-[(2,5-dihydroxybenzyl)amino]salicylates. Several of these compounds inhibited EGF-dependent DNA synthesis in ER 22 cells with IC50 < 1 muM. In this series of PTK inhibitors, the role of the salicylate moiety as a potential divalent ion chelator was tested and found to be nonessential in all cases. The length and ramification of the substituting carboxyl group were investigated to improve cellular bioavailability, and this analysis provided compounds with increased inhibitory effect on EGF-induced DNA synthesis. Salicylates esterified with long hydrophobic chains were shown to be noncompetitive inhibitors of ATP, in contrast to the free acid and methyl salicylate. Moreover, all the tested inhibitors were shown to be noncompetitive inhibitors of the peptide substrate. Structure-activity relationships allowed us to suspect a hydrophobic pocket in the tyrosine kinase domain, preferentially interacting with aromatic rings. Finally, the selectivity of the best inhibitors was tested against other kinases, and they were found to be selective for tyrosine kinase. They were also shown to be good inhibitors of EGF-receptor autophosphorylation.

The active partial structure of the potent tyrosine kinase inhibitor lavendustin A was derivatized in the search for novel agents against cellular proliferation. The antiproliferative potential of the new derivatives was determined using the human keratinocyte cell line HaCaT as the primary test system. Whereas the lavendustin A partial structure is ineffective in inhibiting cell proliferation, esterification of its carboxylic acid function leads to measurable antiproliferative activity. Additional O-methylation of the 2,5-dihydroxyphenyl moiety yields activity in the micromolar range. Further substantial increases in activity are achieved by replacing the nitrogen with oxygen and carbon within the 2,5-dimethoxyphenyl series (but not within the 2,5-dihydroxyphenyl analogs) leading to 5-[2-(2,5-dimethoxyphenyl)ethyl]-2-hydroxybenzoic acid methyl ester (13) as the most potent analog identified to date. These increases in antiproliferative activity are paralleled, however, by the disappearance of activity against the epidermal growth factor receptor-associated tyrosine kinase, suggesting another mechanism of action.
