New Purines and Purine Analogs as Modulators of Multidrug Resistance
摘要:
A series of 36 purine and purine analog derivatives have been synthesized and tested for their ability to modulate multidrug resistance in vitro (P388/VCR-20 and KB-A1 cells) and in vivo (P388/VCR leukemia). Compounds were compared to S9788, a triazine derivative which has already shown some activity during phase 1 clinical trials and also a limiting cardiovascular side effect possibly linked to its calcium channel affinity. The fact that active compounds increase adriamycin accumulation in the resistant KB-A1 cells, and not in the sensitive KB-3-1 cells, suggests they act predominantly by inhibiting the P-glycoprotein-catalyzed efflux of cytotoxic agents. No direct relation was found between the affinity for the phenylalkylamine binding site of the calcium channel and in vitro sensitization of resistant cells. In vivo, when administered po in association with vincristine (0.25 mg/kg), five compounds (3, 4, 9, 25, and 26), of very differing calcium channel affinities (K-i from 5 to 560 nM), fully restored (T/V greater than or equal to 1.4) the sensitivity of P388/VCR leukemia to vincristine.
Regioselective N-alkylation of 1,3-azoles is a valuable transformation. Organomagnesium reagents were discovered to be competent bases to affect regioselective alkylation of various 1,3-azoles. Counterintuitively, substitution selectively occurred at the more sterically hindered nitrogen atom. Numerous examples are provided, on varying 1,3-azole scaffolds, with yields ranging from 25 to 95%.
