Synthesis and Anticancer Activity of Brefeldin A Ester Derivatives
摘要:
Ester derivatives of brefeldin A ( BFA) were synthesized to determine which of its two hydroxyl groups could be modified while still maintaining biological activity. The compounds were tested for antiproliferative activity in the National Cancer Institute's 60 cancer cell line screen. Monoderivatization at the C4 and C7 alcohols was tolerated, yielding biologically active compounds, whereas the analogues derivatized at both positions were the least active in the series. Molecular modeling of the analogues revealed that both the C4 and C7 derivatives were well tolerated at the interface between ARF1 and its guanine nucleotide exchange factor ARNO. The Golgi-disruptive properties of the analogues were determined using fluorescence imaging assays. The BFA ester conjugates synthesized in this study were cytotoxic to cancer cells, and we have shown that the disruption of the Golgi complex is not necessary for cytotoxicity. The brefeldin A ester derivatives are potential anticancer agents.

Design and Synthesis of Brefeldin A Sulfide Derivatives as Prodrug Candidates with Enhanced Aqueous Solubilities
摘要:
The addition of a variety of thiols to the alpha,beta-unsaturated lactone functionality present in brefeldin A has been carried out, and the resulting sulfides have been oxidized to the corresponding sulfoxides. These sulfoxides have the potential to undergo syn elimination to regenerate brefeldin A. The sulfoxides were more active than the sulfides as cytotoxic agents in a variety of human cancer cell cultures with the activities of the sulfoxides approaching that of brefeldin A itself. The cytotoxicities of the sulfoxides may be due to their conversion back to brefeldin A. The kinetics of sulfoxide elimination to form brefeldin A were studied in four cases, and the results indicate that substantial amounts of brefeldin A are likely to be generated during the cytotoxicity assays of the sulfoxide derivatives. Since the oxidation of sulfides to sulfoxides is a common metabolic reaction, the sulfides derived from brefeldin A can be considered as potential brefeldin A prodrugs. Several of the sulfide derivatives were determined to have enhanced aqueous solubilities relative to brefeldin A itself, A number of brefeldin A succinates, glutarates, oxidation products, and sulfone derivatives were also prepared and evaluated for cytotoxicity in dancer cell cultures. Some of the more active brefeldin A derivatives were tested in an in vivo animal model in which hollow fibers containing cancer cell cultures were implanted subcutaneously (SC) and intraperitoneally (IF), and the compounds were administered IP. Greater cytotoxic activity was observed at the SC site than at the IP site for the majority of these compounds, an observation which is consistent with the hypothesis that they are acting as brefeldin A prodrugs in vivo.
