[PMID: 32665901 PMCID: PMC7335995 DOI: 10.34172/apb.2020.051] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/20/2019] [Revised: 11/23/2019] [Accepted: 12/08/2019] [Indexed: 11/09/2022] Open
Abstract
Purpose: In this study, a series of piperazin-2-one derivatives were prepared through bioisosteric substitution of the imidazole ring of L-778,123 (imidazole-containing FTase inhibitor) and rearrangement of groups based on the tipifarnib structure. Final compounds were evaluated for their cytotoxic activities on cancer and normal cell lines by MTT assay. Methods: Methyl α-bromophenylacetic acid and 1-(3-chlorophenyl) piperazin-2-one were synthesized using previously described methods. Methyl 2-(4-chlorophenyl)-2-(4-(3- chlorophenyl)-3-oxopiperazin-1-yl) acetate was prepared by reaction between these two compounds in presence of potassium carbonate. Finally, methoxy group of ester was substituted by various amines such as guanidine, thiourea, urea and hydrazide. The synthesized compounds were tested for their cytotoxicity against colon cancer (HT-29) and lung cancer (A549) cell lines as well as MRC-5 (normal fetal lung fibroblasts) cells as a healthy cell line using MTT colorimetric assay method. Results: Replacement of imidazole moiety with guanidine, thiourea, and hydrazide could increase cytotoxicity toward all three cell lines. Some substituents, such as amine, urea, and hydroxylamine exhibited significant cytotoxicity (<500 µM) but lower than L-778,123 as standard compound. Hydroxyl and methoxy substituents did not show significant cytotoxicity. Imidazole substituent group revealed cytotoxicity similar to L-778,123 All compounds showed lower cytotoxic activity against normal cell lines compared with cancer cell lines. Conclusion: It seems the electron density of substituted groups and rearrangement of groups may significantly increase cytotoxic activity.

Abstract
![]()
Protein farnesytransferase (PFTase)
catalyzes the farnesylation
of proteins with a carboxy-terminal tetrapeptide sequence denoted
as a Ca1a2X box. To explore the specificity
of this enzyme, an important therapeutic target, solid-phase peptide
synthesis in concert with a peptide inversion strategy was used to
prepare two libraries, each containing 380 peptides. The libraries
were screened using an alkyne-containing isoprenoid analogue followed
by click chemistry with biotin azide and subsequent visualization
with streptavidin-AP. Screening of the CVa2X and CCa2X libraries with Rattus norvegicus PFTase revealed reaction by many known recognition sequences as
well as numerous unknown ones. Some of the latter occur in the genomes
of bacteria and viruses and may be important for pathogenesis, suggesting
new targets for therapeutic intervention. Screening of the CVa2X library with alkyne-functionalized isoprenoid substrates
showed that those prepared from C10 or C15 precursors
gave similar results, whereas the analogue synthesized from a C5 unit gave a different pattern of reactivity. Lastly, the
substrate specificities of PFTases from three organisms (R. norvegicus, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and Candida albicans) were compared
using CVa2X libraries. R. norvegicus PFTase was found to share more peptide substrates with S. cerevisiae PFTase than with C.
albicans PFTase. In general, this method is a highly
efficient strategy for rapidly probing the specificity of this important
enzyme.

Abstract
The posttranslational modification of protein prenylation is a covalent lipid modification on the C-terminus of substrate proteins that serves to enhance membrane affinity. Oncogenic proteins such as Ras have this modification and significant effort has been placed into developing inhibitors of the prenyltransferase enzymes for clinical therapy. In addition to cancer therapy, prenyltransferase inhibitors have begun to find important therapeutic uses in other diseases, including progeria, hepatitis C and D, parasitic infections, and other maladies. This review will trace the evolution of prenyltransferase inhibitors from their initial use as cancer therapeutics to their expanded applications for other diseases.

Abstract
A series of substituted 3-chlorophenylpiperazinone derivatives were synthesised using L-778123 (an imidazole-containing FTase inhibitor) as a model by bioisosteric replacement of the imidazole ring. The final compounds were evaluated against two human cancer cell lines including A549 (lung cancer) and HT-29 (colon cancer) by MTT assay. The results showed that substitution of imidazole ring with 1-amidinourea, semicarbazide, and thiobiuret led to improvement of cytotoxic activity against both cell lines.
