Hypoxia-inducible factor-1 (HIF-1) is a key transcription factor which is strongly associated with tumor survival, progression, and therapeutic resistance. Accordingly, it has been suggested that the inhibition of the HIF-1 pathway can suppress tumor, and it has become an important therapeutic target. In present study, oltipraz, its metabolite M2, and their derivatives were synthesized and evaluated as HIF-1 alpha inhibitors. Among the synthesized, benzyl-substituted pyrrolo[1,2-a]pyrazine 2g most potently inhibited HIF-1 alpha protein accumulation (81% at 10 mu M) and VEGF, GLUT-1 transcription (77% and 92% at 10 mu M, respectively).

Structure-Activity Relationship and Evaluation of Phenethylamine and Tryptamine Derivatives for Affinity towards 5-Hydroxytryptamine Type 2A Receptor

Shujie Wang, Anlin Zhu, Suresh Paudel, Choon-Gon Jang, Yong Sup Lee, Kyeong-Man Kim

Summary: The structure-activity relationship (SAR) of phenethylamine and tryptamine derivatives for binding 5-HT2AR was determined and functional and regulatory evaluation of selected compounds was conducted. Phenethylamines showed higher affinity to 5-HT2AR than tryptamines, with alkyl or halogen groups on the phenyl ring exerting positive effects on binding affinity in phenethylamines. Oxygen-containing groups on R-3 of phenethylamines had mixed influences. Oxygen-containing substituents on the large ring and alkyl substituents on the small ring of tryptamine groups had positive and negative influences, respectively.

Design, Rational Repurposing, Synthesis, In Vitro Evaluation, Homology Modeling and In Silico Study of Sulfuretin Analogs as Potential Antileishmanial Hit Compounds

Ahmed H. E. Hassan, Trong-Nhat Phan, Yeonwoo Choi, Suyeon Moon, Joo Hwan No, Yong Sup Lee

Summary: This study developed sulfuretin analogs that have the potential to inhibit the immunosuppressive PGE(2) and directly inhibit the growth of Leishmania donovani. Among the library of analogs, compounds 1i and 1q showed the most promising activity. Cytotoxicity evaluation demonstrated that compound 1i specifically targets the parasite without affecting host cells. In silico simulation provided insights into the binding between these analogs and Leishmania donovani fumarate reductase. These findings suggest that compounds 1i and 1q could be further developed as multifunctional therapeutic agents against visceral leishmaniasis.

Summary: Visceral leishmaniasis caused by L. donovani is highly fatal, and the discovery of new hit compounds can lead to the development of novel therapeutics. A small library of bestatin analogs-4-quinolone hybrids was designed and evaluated, revealing distinct profiles for different types of hybrids. Hybrid 1e and hybrid 2j were identified as potential hits that inhibit the growth of L. donovani promastigotes, and they showed excellent safety profiles in comparison to the drug erufosine. In silico studies and molecular dynamics simulations provided insights into the binding mode and impact of hybrid 1e on LdMetAP-1 and LdMetAP-2.

Summary: Phenethyl-based edelfosine-analogs with different alkoxy substituents on the phenyl ring were designed as antitumor lipids modulating p38 MAPK activity. Saturated and monounsaturated alkoxy-substituted derivatives showed the highest antitumor activity against various cancer cells. Ortho-substituted compounds were more active than meta- or ortho-substituted compounds. Compound 1b emerged as the most potent inhibitor of p38 MAPK activity. In silico study suggested that compounds 1b and 1a could potentially bind to the lipid binding pocket of p38 MAPK. Overall, compounds 1b and 1a have broad spectrum antitumor potential through p38 MAPK modulation.
