A series of 5-(1,3-benzothiazol-6-yl)-4-(4-methyl-1,3-thiazol-2-yl)-1H-imidazole derivatives was synthesized as transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) type I receptor (also known as activin-like kinase 5 or ALK5) inhibitors. These compounds were evaluated for their ALK5 inhibitory activity in an enzyme assay and for their TGF-beta-induced Smad2/3 phosphorylation inhibitory activity in a cell-based assay. As a representative compound, 16i was a potent and selective ALK5 inhibitor, exhibiting a good enzyme inhibitory activity (IC50 = 5.5 nM) as well as inhibitory activity against TGF-beta-induced Smad2/3 phosphorylation at a cellular level (IC50 = 36 nM). Furthermore, the topical application of 3% 16i lotion significantly inhibited Smad2 phosphorylation in Mouse skin (90% inhibition compared with vehicle-treated animals). (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd.
