Design and synthesis of 4-piperazinyl quinoline derived urea/thioureas for anti-breast cancer activity by a hybrid pharmacophore approach.

ABSTRACT: In an attempt to improve anti-breast cancer activity, a new series of 4-piperazinylquinoline derivatives based on the urea/thiourea scaffold were designed and synthesised by a pharmacophore hybrid approach. We then examined for their antiproliferative effects on three human breast tumor cell lines, MDA-MB231, MDA-MB468 and MCF7, and two non-cancer breast epithelial cell lines, 184B5 and MCF10A. Among those 26 novel compounds examined, 5, 9, 17, 18, 21, 23 and 29 showed significantly improved antiproliferative activity on breast cancer cells. Compound 23 (4-(7-chloro-quinolin-4-yl)-piperazine-1-carbothioic acid (2-morpholin-4-yl-ethyl)-amide) (RL-15) is especially desirable, since its antigrowth/cell-killing activity is 7-11 fold higher on cancer than non-cancer cells. Data from cell biological studies demonstrated that cancer cells compromised plasma membrane integrity in the presence of compound 23. The cancer cell-specific property of compound 23 shown in cell culture stands in vivo test, this compound can be an excellent lead for effective and safe anticancer drug.

Project description:Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is one of the most serious global public health threats as it compromises the successful treatment of deadly infectious diseases like tuberculosis. New therapeutics are constantly needed but it takes a long time and is expensive to explore new biochemical space. One way to address this issue is to repurpose the validated targets and identify novel chemotypes that can simultaneously bind to multiple binding pockets of these targets as a new lead generation strategy. This study reports such a strategy, dynamic hybrid pharmacophore model (DHPM), which represents the combined interaction features of different binding pockets contrary to the conventional approaches, where pharmacophore models are generated from single binding sites. We have considered Mtb-DapB, a validated mycobacterial drug target, as our model system to explore the effectiveness of DHPMs to screen novel unexplored compounds. Mtb-DapB has a cofactor binding site (CBS) and an adjacent substrate binding site (SBS). Four different model systems of Mtb-DapB were designed where, either NADPH/NADH occupies CBS in presence/absence of an inhibitor 2, 6-PDC in the adjacent SBS. Two more model systems were designed, where 2, 6-PDC was linked to NADPH and NADH to form hybrid molecules. The six model systems were subjected to 200 ns molecular dynamics simulations and trajectories were analyzed to identify stable ligand-receptor interaction features. Based on these interactions, conventional pharmacophore models (CPM) were generated from the individual binding sites while DHPMs were created from hybrid-molecules occupying both binding sites. A huge library of 1,563,764 publicly available molecules were screened by CPMs and DHPMs. The screened hits obtained from both types of models were compared based on their Hashed binary molecular fingerprints and 4-point pharmacophore fingerprints using Tanimoto, Cosine, Dice and Tversky similarity matrices. Molecules screened by DHPM exhibited significant structural diversity, better binding strength and drug like properties as compared to the compounds screened by CPMs indicating the efficiency of DHPM to explore new chemical space for anti-TB drug discovery. The idea of DHPM can be applied for a wide range of mycobacterial or other pathogen targets to venture into unexplored chemical space.
