Influence of Sugar Amine Regiochemistry on Digitoxigenin Neoglycoside Anticancer Activity
摘要:
The synthesis of a set of digitoxigenin neogluco/xylosides and corresponding study of their anticancer SAR revealed sugar amine regiochemistry has a dramatic effect upon activity. Specifically, this study noted sugar 3-amino followed 1 by 4-amino-substitution to be most advantageous where the solvent accessibility of the appended amine within neoglycoside-Na+,K+-ATPase docked models correlated with increased anticancer potency. This study presents a preliminary model for potential further warhead optimization in the context of antibody-directed steroidal glycosides and extends the demonstrated compatibility of aminosugars in the context of neoglycosylation.

Digitoxin is a cardiac glycoside currently being investigated for potential use in oncology; however, an investigation of anticancer activity as a function, of oligosaccharide chain length has not yet been performed. We generated mono-, di-, and tri-O-digitoxoside derivatives, of digitoxin and compared their activities to the corresponding MeON-neoglycosides. Both classes of cardenolide derivatives display comparable oligosaccharide chain length-dependent cytotoxicity toward human cancer cell lines. Further investigation revealed that both classes of compounds induce caspase-9-mediated apoptosis in non-small cell lung cancer cells (NCI-H460). Because O-glycosides and MeON-neoglycosides share a similar mode of action, the convenience of MeON-neoglycosylation could be exploited in future SAR work to rapidly survey large numbers of carbohydrates to prioritize selected O-glycoside candidates for traditional synthesis.

A chemoselective reaction between oxyamines and unprotected, unactivated reducing sugars was used to construct for the first time a panel of linkage-diversified neoglycosides. This panel of digitoxin analogs included potent and selective tumor cytotoxins; cytotoxicity was dependent on the structure of the glycosidic linkage. These results validate linkage diversification through neoglycosylation as a unique and simple strategy to powerfully complement existing methods for the optimization of glycoconjugates.
