Novel coumarin-6-sulfonamide-chalcone hybrids as glutathione transferase P1-1 inhibitors.

ABSTRACT: Multidrug resistance (MDR) mechanisms in cancer cells are greatly influenced by glutathione transferase P1-1 (hGSTP1-1). The use of synthetic or natural compounds as hGSTP1-1 inhibitors is considered an effective approach to overcome MDR. Nine compounds consisting of coumarin-6-sulfonamide linked to chalcone derivatives were synthesized and evaluated for their ability to inhibit hGSTP1-1. Among the synthetic derivatives, compounds 5g, 5f, and 5a displayed the most potent inhibitory effect, with IC50 values of 12.2 ± 0.5 μΜ, 12.7 ± 0.7 and 16.3 ± 0.6, respectively. Kinetic inhibition analysis of the most potent molecule, 5g, showed that it behaves as a mixed-type inhibitor of the target enzyme.
