RuII -arene complexes provide a versatile scaffold for novel anticancer drugs. Seven new RuII -arene-thiocarboxylato dimers were synthesized and characterized. Three of the complexes (2 a, b and 5) showed promising antiproliferative activities in MDA-MB-231 (human invasive breast cancer) cells, and were further tested in a panel of fifteen cancerous and noncancerous cell lines. Complex 5 showed moderate

The synthesis and in vitro renin inhibitory potencies of angiotensinogen (ANG) analogues having amide (CONH) bond replacements at P1-P1', the Leu-Val cleavage site, corresponding to Leu psi[CH2SO]Val, and the trans olefinic analogue of statine (Sta), 4(S)-amino-6-methyl-2(E)-heptenoic acid (dehydrostatine, Dhs), are reported. These are compared to P1-P1' Leu psi[CH2NH]Val-, Sta-, or Phe-Phe-substituted analogues of the same template. The Dhs pseudodipeptide was found to be an adequate mimic of a trans CONH bond and gave a peptide, H-Pro-His-Pro-Phe-His-Dhs-Ile-His-D-Lys-OH, approximately equal in potency to a Phe-Phe-containing inhibitor, but 200-fold less potent than its Sta-substituted congener. That the enhanced potency of the Sta-containing peptide most likely depends on hydrogen bonding as well as tetrahedral geometry is indicated by the 50-100-fold lower potency of the tetrahedral Leu psi[CH2S]Val and Leu psi[CH2SO]Val analogues as compared to the Leu psi[CH2NH]Val-containing congener.
Synthesis and inhibitory activity of substrate-analog fructosyl peptide oxidase inhibitors
Fructosyl peptide oxidases (FPOXs) play a crucial role in the diagnosis of diabetes. Their main function is to cleave fructosyl amino acids or fructosyl peptides into glucosone and the corresponding amino acids/dipeptides. In this study, the substrate-analog FPOX inhibitors 1a-c were successfully designed and synthesized. These inhibitors mimic N-alpha-fructosyl-L-valine (Fru-Val), [N-alpha-fructosyl-L-valyl]-L-histidine (Fru-ValHis), and N-epsilon-fructosyl-L-lysine (epsilon Fru-Lys), respectively. The secondary nitrogen atom in the natural substrates, linking fructose and amino acid or dipeptide moieties, was substituted in 1a-c with a sulfur atom to avoid enzymatic cleavage. Kinetic studies revealed that 1a-c act as competitive inhibitors against an FPOX obtained from Coniochaeta sp., and K-i values of 11.1, 66.8, and 782 mu M were obtained for 1a-c, respectively.
