Medicinal Chemistry Perspectives on Recent Advances in Src Kinase Inhibitors as a Potential Target for the Development of Anticancer Agents: Biological Profile, Selectivity, Structure-Activity Relationship. Chem Biodivers 2023; 20:e202300515. [PMID: 37563848 DOI: 10.1002/cbdv.202300515] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/09/2023] [Revised: 08/05/2023] [Accepted: 08/10/2023] [Indexed: 08/12/2023]
Abstract
The physiological Src proto-oncogene is a protein tyrosine kinase receptor that served as the essential signaling pathway in different types of cancer. Src kinase receptor is divided into different domains: a unique domain, an SH3 domain, an SH2 domain, a protein tyrosine kinase domain, and a regulatory tail, which runs from the N-terminus to the C-terminus. Src kinase inhibitors bind in the kinase domain and are activated by phosphorylation. The etiology of cancer involved various signaling pathways and Src signaling pathways are also involved in those clusters. Although the dysregulation of Src kinase resulted in cancer being discovered in the late 19th century it is still considered a cult pathway because it is not much explored by different medicinal chemists and oncologists. The Src kinase regulated through different kinase pathways (MAPK, PI3K/Akt/mTOR, JAK/STAT3, Hippo kinase, PEAK1, and Rho/ROCK pathways) and proceeded downstream signaling to conduct cell proliferation, angiogenesis, migration, invasion, and metastasis of cancer cells. There are numerous FDA-approved drugs flooded the market but still, there is a huge demand for the creation of novel anticancer drugs. As the existing drugs are accompanied by several adverse effects and drug resistance due to rapid mutation in proteins. In this review, we have elaborated about the structure and activation of Src kinase, as well as the development of Src kinase inhibitors. Our group also provided a comprehensive overview of Src inhibitors throughout the last two decades, including their biological activity, structure-activity relationship, and Src kinase selectivity. The Src binding pocket has been investigated in detail to better comprehend the interaction of Src inhibitors with amino acid residues. We have strengthened the literature with our contribution in terms of molecular docking and ADMET studies of top compounds. We hope that the current analysis will be a useful resource for researchers and provide glimpse of direction toward the design and development of more specific, selective, and potent Src kinase inhibitors.

Abstract
The serine/threonine kinase SGK1 is an activator of the β-catenin pathway and a powerful stimulator of cartilage degradation that is found to be upregulated under genomic control in diseased osteoarthritic cartilage. Today, no oral disease-modifying treatments are available and chronic treatment in this indication sets high requirements for the drug selectivity, pharmacokinetic, and safety profile. We describe the identification of a highly selective druglike 1H-pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine SGK1 inhibitor 17a that matches both safety and pharmacokinetic requirements for oral dosing. Rational compound design was facilitated by a novel hSGK1 co-crystal structure, and multiple ligand-based computer models were applied to guide the chemical optimization of the compound ADMET and selectivity profiles. Compounds were selected for subchronic proof of mechanism studies in the mouse femoral head cartilage explant model, and compound 17a emerged as a druglike SGK1 inhibitor, with a highly optimized profile suitable for oral dosing as a novel, potentially disease-modifying agent for osteoarthritis.

Abstract
A major problem associated with cancer treatment is resistance-prone chemotherapeutic drugs. An increasing number of studies have documented that the occurrence of resistance tends to be associated with abnormal blood vessels. In 2001, Jain proposed the vascular normalization theory, which was recently applied to the drug-resistant treatment of tumors in the clinic. Through the intervention of angiogenesis inhibitors, remodeling the structure and function of abnormal vessels can maximize the efficacy of chemotherapeutic drugs. In this review, we systematically describe the occurrence and progress of tumor angiogenesis, as well as the pathological characteristics of tumor blood vessels. Moreover, druggable targets for vascular normalization and the development of related inhibitors are also outlined.

Abstract
The indazole core is an interesting pharmacophore due to its applications in medicinal chemistry. In the past few years, this moiety has been used for the synthesis of kinase inhibitors. Many researchers have demonstrated the use of indazole derivatives as specific kinase inhibitors, including tyrosine kinase and serine/threonine kinases. A number of anticancer drugs with an indazole core are commercially available, e.g. axitinib, linifanib, niraparib, and pazopanib. Indazole derivatives are applied for the targeted treatment of lung, breast, colon, and prostate cancers. In this review, we compile the current development of indazole derivatives as kinase inhibitors and their application as anticancer agents in the past five years.

Abstract
The development of a novel selective synthesis of 3-amino-2H-indazoles from readily available 2-halobenzonitriles is presented. The reaction proceeds through a domino reaction sequence, consisting of a regioselective palladium-catalyzed coupling of monosubstituted hydrazines with 2-halobenzonitriles, followed by an intramolecular hydroamination through a 5-exo-dig cyclization and subsequent isomerization to directly afford a wide variety of substituted 2H-indazole analogues in good to excellent yields.

Abstract
Introduction: Autophagy, a basic cellular degradation pathway essential for survival, is altered both in aging and in many chronic human diseases, including infections, cancer, heart disease, and neurodegeneration. Identifying new therapeutic targets for the control and modulation of autophagy events is therefore of utmost importance in drug discovery. Serum and glucocorticoid activated kinase 1 (SGK1), known for decades for its role in ion channel modulation, is now known to act as a switch for autophagy homeostasis, and has emerged as a novel and important therapeutic target likely to attract considerable research attention in the coming years.Areas covered: In this general review of SGK1 we describe the kinase's structure and its roles in physiological and pathological contexts. We also discuss small-molecule modulators of SGK1 activity. These modulators are of particular interest to medicinal chemists and pharmacists seeking to develop more potent and selective drug candidates for SGK1, which, despite its key role in autophagy, remains relatively understudied.Expert opinion: The main future challenges in this area are (i) deciphering the role of SGK1 in selective autophagy processes (e.g. mitophagy, lipophagy, and aggrephagy); (ii) identifying selective allosteric modulators of SGK1 with specific biological functions; and (iii) conducting first-in-man clinical studies.
