Discovery of Novel PI3Kδ Inhibitors Based on the p110δ Crystal Structure.

ABSTRACT: PI3Kδ is a key mediator of B-cell receptor signaling and plays an important role in the pathogenesis of certain hematological malignancies, such as chronic lymphocytic leukemia. Idelalisib, which targets PI3Kδ specifically, is the first approved PI3K inhibitor for cancer therapy. Recently, we carried out virtual screening, cell-based assays, adapta kinase assays, and molecular dynamic analysis to discover novel PI3Kδ inhibitors and identified NSC348884 as a lead PI3Kδ inhibitor. NSC348884 had an excellent docking score, potent PI3Kδ-inhibitory activity, antitumor effects on various cancer cell lines, and a favorable binding mode with the active site of PI3Kδ. Moreover, through the structural modification of NSC348884, we further discovered comp#1, which forms H-bonds with both Val828 and L
