RESUMEN
A novel four-component one-pot approach for the synthesis of 2-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazoles from primary amines, carbon disulfide, hydrazine, and acyl chlorides has been developed. A series of 5-substituted-2-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazoles were synthesized in medium-to-good yields utilizing this newly developed method.

A convenient and practical method for the synthesis of 2-alkylthio-4-amino-5-cyano-6-aryl(alkyl)pyrimidines has been developed via a three-component, one-pot reaction from aldehydes, malononitrile and S-alkylisothiouronium salts in water at room temperature. A series of polysubstituted pyrimidines were prepared by this method in moderate to excellent yields. In addition, two kinds of pyrimidine-fused heterocyclic derivatives with potential pharmacological activity were constructed from our 2-alkylthio-4-amino-5-cyano-6-arylpyrimidines.

A series of monospirocyclopiperazinium salts were designed and synthesized to search for a peripherally-acting analgesic drug with low side effects. Extensive SAR studies revealed that a suitable NR(2)R(3) was critical for the analgesic activity, which might be beneficial to expose the cationic nitrogen to bind to the receptor, and possibly interact with the receptor via π-π interaction. Introduction of substituting group on the N(4)-phenyl ring could improve the activity, and the best position was the 4-position. Compound 14n showed more potent analgesic activity (63%, 20 µM/kg, sc) and holds promise for development as a mechanically new analgesic drug.

On the basis of combination strategy, a novel series of EGFR inhibitors were designed and synthesized by combination of dithiocarbamic acid esters and 4-anilinoquinazolines. The effect of the synthesized compounds on cell proliferation was evaluated by MTT assay in three human cancer cell lines: MDA-MB-468, SK-BR-3 and HCT-116. Two compounds (11d and 11f) were found more potent against all three cell lines and five compounds (11a, 11d-11g) were found more potent against both MDA-MB-468 and SK-BR-3 than Lapatinib. SAR studies revealed that the substituents on C6 and C7 positions of quinazoline, the amine component of dithiocarbamate moiety and the linker greatly affected the activity. This work provides a promising new strategy for the preparation of potent tyrosine kinase inhibitors.

A novel class of urea-containing peptide boronic acids as proteasome inhibitors was designed by introducing a urea scaffold to replace an amido bond. Compounds were synthesized and their antitumor activities were evaluated. After two rounds of optimizations, the compound I-14 was found to be a potent proteasome inhibitor. Compared with Bortezomib, I-14 showed higher potency against the chymotrypsin-like activity of human 20S proteasome (IC50 < 1 pM), similar potency against four different cancer cell lines (IC50 < 10 nM), and better pharmacokinetic profile. Furthermore, I-14 significantly inhibited tumor growth in Bel7404 mouse xenograft model. The excellent proteasome inhibition by I-14 was rationalized through docking and molecular dynamics studies.

Cisplatin is one of the most common drugs used for treatment of solid tumors such as ovarian cancer. Unfortunately, the development of resistance against this cytotoxic agent limits its clinical use. Here we report that YSY01A, a novel proteasome inhibitor, is capable of suppressing survival of cisplatin-resistant ovarian cancer cells by inducing apoptosis. And YSY01A treatment enhances the cytotoxicity of cisplatin in drug-resistant ovarian cancer cells. Specifically, YSY01A abrogates regulatory proteins important for cell proliferation and anti-apoptosis including NF-κB p65 and STAT3, resulting in down-regulation of Bcl-2. A dramatic increase in cisplatin uptake was also observed by inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry following exposure to YSY01A. Taken together, YSY01A serves as a potential candidate for further development as anticancer therapeutics targeting the proteasome.
RESUMEN
A series of new analogs based on the structure of lead compound 10 were designed, synthesized and evaluated for their in vitro anti-cancer activities against four selected human cancer cell lines (HL-60, Bel-7402, SK-BR-3 and MDA-MB-468). Several synthesized compounds exhibited improved anti-cancer activities comparing with lead compound 10. Among them, 1,3,4-oxadiazole analogs 17o showed highest bioactivity with IC50 values of 1.23, 0.58 and 4.29 µM against Bel-7402, SK-BR-3 and MDA-MB-468 cells, respectively. It is noteworthy that 17o has potent anti-proliferation activity toward a panel of cancer cells with relatively less cytotoxicity to nonmalignant cells. The further mechanistic study showed that it induced apoptosis and cell cycle arrest through disrupting spindle assembly in mitotic progression, indicating these synthesized dithiocarbamates represented a novel series of anti-cancer compounds targeting mitosis.

A series of dual dithiocarbamates were synthesized and evaluated for their in-vitro anticancer activities on human non-small cell lung cancer cell line H460. Nine compounds exhibited significant antiproliferative activities with IC50 less than 1 µM. Among them, compound 14m showed the highest inhibitory activity against H460 cell and inhibited the growth of nine types of tumor cells with IC50 values less than 1 µM. It also achieved IC50 of 54 nM and 23 nM against HepG2 and MCF-7 cell lines, respectively. Preliminary structure-activity relationship study indicated that: a) when the methyl group (region A) is substituted with benzene rings, ortho substitution on the benzene ring is favored for activity; b) substitution with heterocyclic structures at region A exhibited greater impact on the anti-tumor activity of compounds, in which pyridine ring, thiazole ring, coumarin and benzo[b]thiophene are favored and quinoline ring is the most favored; c) substitution with different amines (region B) also showed marked effect on the activity of compounds and dimethylamine and morpholine are preferred to other tested amines.

Accumulating evidence suggested that the irreversible tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have potential to override the acquired resistance to target-based therapies. Herein, we reported IC-4 as a novel irreversible TKI for epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR). IC-4 potentially suppressed proliferation, induced apoptosis and a G2/M cell cycle arrest in breast cancer cells, correlating with inhibition of EGF-induced EGFR activation, but independent of DNA damage. In addition, IC-4 exhibited anti-angiogenetic activities both in vitro and in vivo. It suppressed cell viability and proliferation induced by various growth factors in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). IC-4 also inhibited HUVECs migration and tube formation. In transgenic zebrafish embryo model, IC-4 was shown to suppress formation of intersegmental vessel and development of subintestinal vessels. Taken together, these results demonstrated that IC-4 is a new irreversible EGFR-TKI, exhibiting potent anti-breast cancer and anti-angiogenetic effects.

Compounds 1-7 form a novel group of dithiocarbamates, first synthesized from the reaction of a series of primary amines with carbon disulfide and 3-bromo ethyl pyruvate in the presence of anhydrous potassium phosphate. Structure elucidation of this group of compounds was accomplished using extensive 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopic studies, including (1)H, (13)C, COSY, NOESY, HSQC, and gHMBC experiments. The distinction between the linear structures I, II and the cyclic structure III was made mainly on the basis of the analysis of the cross peak between H-2 and H-4a in the COSY spectra, in combination with the long-range correlation between H-2 and C-4, 6 in the gHMBC spectra.
