A head-to-head study of representative examples of N-hydroxyindole-2-carboxylates (NHI) and malonic derivatives (Mal) as LDH-A inhibitors was conducted, comparing the enzyme inhibition potency, cellular uptake, reduction of lactate production in cancer cells and anti-proliferative activity. Among the compounds tested, methyl 1-hydroxy-6-phenyl-4-(trifluoromethyl)-1H-indole-2-carboxylate (2, NHI-2), a methyl ester belonging to the NHI class, displayed optimal properties in the cell-based assays, proving to be an efficient anti-glycolytic agent against cancer cells.
对N-羟基吲哚-2-羧酸(NHI)和丙二酸衍生物(Mal)作为LDH-A抑制剂的典型实例进行了对比研究,比较了酶抑制效力、细胞摄取、癌细胞乳酸生成减少和抗增殖活性。在测试的化合物中,甲基1-羟基-6-苯基-4-(三氟甲基)-1H-吲哚-2-羧酸酯(2,NHI-2)是一种属于NHI类的甲基酯,在细胞试验中表现出最佳特性,证明是一种有效的抗糖酵解剂,可对抗癌细胞。
