Design and synthesis of substituted pyrido[3,2-d]-1,2,3-triazines as potential Pim-1 inhibitors
文摘
A novel series of substituted pyrido[3,2-d]-1,2,3-triazines were designed and synthesized as Pim-1 inhibitors through scaffold hopping. Most of the derivatives showed potent in vitro Pim-1 inhibitory activities and anti-proliferative effects toward prostate cancer cells. Among them, trong class="boldFont">6btrong>, trong class="boldFont">6htrong> and trong class="boldFont">6mtrong> showed the best Pim-1 inhibitory activity with IC50 values of 0.69, 0.60 and 0.80 μM, respectively. Furthermore, compounds trong class="boldFont">6btrong>, trong class="boldFont">6itrong>, trong class="boldFont">6jtrong> and trong class="boldFont">6mtrong> showed strong inhibitory activity to human prostate cancer LNcap and PC-3 cell lines with IC50 values at low micromolar level. Structure–activity relationship analysis revealed that appropriate substitutions at C-6 positions contributed to the kinase inhibition and antiproliferative effects. Moreover, western blot assay suggested that trong class="boldFont">6jtrong> could decrease the levels of p-BAD and p-4E-BP1 in a dose-dependent manner in PC-3 cells. Docking studies showed that 3-N of the scaffold formed a hydrogen bond with Lys67, aromatic 4-aniline formed a key π–π stack with Phe49. Taken together, this study might provide the first sight for developing the pyrido[3,2-d]-1,2,3-triazine scaffold as novel Pim-1 inhibitors.
