RESUMO
GLS1 is an attractive target not only as anticancer agents but also as candidates for various potential pharmaceutical applications such as anti-aging and anti-obesity treatments. We performed docking simulations based on the complex crystal structure of GLS1 and its inhibitor CB-839 and found that compound A bearing a thiadiazole skeleton exhibits GLS1 inhibition. Furthermore, we synthesized 27 thiadiazole derivatives in an effort to obtain a more potent GLS1 inhibitor. Among the synthesized derivatives, 4d showed more potent GLS1 inhibitory activity (IC50 of 46.7 µM) than known GLS1 inhibitor DON and A. Therefore, 4d is a very promising novel GLS1 inhibitor.
