Abstract
The Brønsted acid-controlled switchable synthesis of indoline-fused tetrahydroquinolines and indole-fused benzazepines was developed through hydride transfer-enabled formal [5 + 1] and [5 + 2] cyclization reactions from indoles and N-alkyl o-aminobenzoketones. Indoline, furanone, and tetrahydroquinoline hybridized pentacyclic products were unprecedentedly accessed via a cascade condensation/hydride transfer/dearomatization-cyclization/deethylation/nucleophilic addition process. In addition, the undeveloped hydride transfer-involved [5 + 2] cyclizations were also realized for direct construction of indole-fused benzazepines.

Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of Cyclobutane-Based β3 Integrin Antagonists: A Novel Approach to Targeting Integrins for Cancer Therapy. Cancers (Basel) 2023; 15:4023. [PMID: 37627051 PMCID: PMC10452181 DOI: 10.3390/cancers15164023] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/15/2023] [Revised: 07/25/2023] [Accepted: 08/06/2023] [Indexed: 08/27/2023] Open
Abstract
The Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD)-binding family of integrin receptors, and notably the β3 subfamily, are key to multiple physiological processes involved in tissue development, cancer proliferation, and metastatic dissemination. While there is compelling preclinical evidence that both αvβ3 and αIIbβ3 are important anticancer targets, most integrin antagonists developed to target the β3 integrins are highly selective for αvβ3 or αIIbβ3. We report the design, synthesis, and biological evaluation of a new structural class of ligand-mimetic β3 integrin antagonist. These new antagonists combine a high activity against αvβ3 with a moderate affinity for αIIbβ3, providing the first evidence for a new approach to integrin targeting in cancer.

Abstract
This article surveys a range of important platform and high value chemicals that may be considered primary and secondary 'xylochemicals'. A summary of identified xylochemical substances and their natural sources is provided in tabular form. In detail, this review is meant to provide useful assistance for the consideration of potential synthetic strategies using xylochemicals, new methodologies and the development of potentially sustainable, xylochemistry-based processes. It should support the transition from petroleum-based approaches and help to move towards more sustainability within the synthetic community. This feasible paradigm shift is demonstrated with the total synthesis of natural products and active pharmaceutical ingredients as well as the preparation of organic molecules suitable for potential industrial applications.

Abstract
Inherently complex, lignin-derived aromatic monomers comprising valuable structural moieties present in many pharmaceuticals would serve as ideal substrates for the construction of biologically active molecules. Here, we describe a strategy that incorporates all intrinsic functional groups present in platform chemicals obtained by lignin depolymerization into value-added amines, using sustainable catalytic methods and benign solvents. Our strikingly efficient protocol provides access to libraries of aminoalkyl-phenol derivatives and seven-membered N-heterocycles directly from wood in two, respectively three, waste-free steps. Several molecules in these libraries have shown promising antibacterial or anticancer activities, emphasizing the advantage of this modular synthetic strategy and the potential for drug discovery. The sustainable catalytic pathways presented here can lead to significant benefits for the pharmaceutical industry where reduction of hazardous waste is a prime concern, and the described strategies that lead to high-value products from non-edible biomass waste streams also markedly increase the economic feasibility of lignocellulosic biorefineries.

Abstract
Integrins are cell surface receptors for proteins of the extracellular matrix and plasma-borne adhesive proteins. Their involvement in diverse pathologies prompted medicinal chemists to develop small-molecule antagonists, and very often such molecules are peptidomimetics designed on the basis of the short native ligand-integrin recognition motifs. This review deals with peptidomimetic integrin ligands composed of α- and β-amino acids. The roles exerted by the β-amino acid components are discussed in terms of biological activity, bioavailability, and selectivity. Special attention is paid to the synthetic accessibility and efficiency of conformationally constrained heterocyclic scaffolds incorporating α/β-amino acid span.

Abstract
The development of injectable integrin α(v)β(3)/α(IIb)β(3) dual antagonists attracts much attention of research for treating of acute ischemic diseases in recent years. In this work, based on a dataset composed of 102 tricyclic piperazine/piperidine furnished dual α(v)β(3) and α(IIb)β(3) antagonists, a variety of in silico modeling approaches including the comparative molecular field analysis (CoMFA), comparative similarity indices analysis (CoMSIA), and molecular docking were applied to reveal the requisite 3D structural features impacting the biological activities. Our statistical results show that the ligand-based 3D-QSAR models for both the α(v)β(3) and α(IIb)β(3) studies exhibited satisfactory internal and external predictability, i.e., for the CoMFA models, results of Q(2)=0.48, R(ncv)(2)=0.87, R(pred)(2)=0.71 for α(v)β(3) and Q(2)=0.50, R(ncv)(2)=0.85, R(pred)(2)=0.72 for α(IIb)β(3) analysis were obtained, and for the CoMSIA ones, the outcomes of Q(2)=0.55, R(ncv)(2)=0.90, R(pred)(2)=0.72 for α(v)β(3) and Q(2)=0.52, R(ncv)(2)=0.88, R(pred)(2)=0.74 for α(IIb)β(3) were achieved respectively. In addition, through a comparison between 3D-QSAR contour maps and docking results, it is revealed that that the most crucial interactions occurring between the tricyclic piperazine/piperidine derivatives and α(v)β(3)/α(IIb)β(3) receptor ligand binding pocket are H-bonding, and the key amino acids impacting the interactions are Arg214, Asn215, Ser123, and Lys253 for α(v)β(3), but Arg214, Asn215, Ser123 and Tyr190 for α(IIb)β(3) receptors, respectively. Halogen-containing groups at position 15 and 16, benzene sulfonamide substituent at position 23, and the replacement of piperazine with 4-aminopiperidine of ring B may increase the α(v)β(3)/α(IIb)β(3) antagonistic activity. The potencies for antagonists to inhibit isolated α(v)β(3) and α(IIb)β(3) are linear correlated, indicating that similar interaction mechanisms may exist for the series of molecules. To our best knowledge this is the first report on 3D-QSAR modeling of these dual α(v)β(3)/α(IIb)β(3) antagonists. The results obtained should provide information for better understanding of the mechanism of antagonism and thus be helpful in design of novel potent dual α(v)β(3)/α(IIb)β(3) antagonists.

Abstract
The integrins are a large family of cell adhesion molecules that are essential for the regulation of cell growth and function. The identification of key roles for integrins in a diverse range of diseases, including cancer, infection, thrombosis and autoimmune disorders, has revealed their substantial potential as therapeutic targets. However, so far, pharmacological inhibitors for only three integrins have received marketing approval. This article discusses the structure and function of integrins, their roles in disease and the chequered history of the approved integrin antagonists. Recent advances in the understanding of integrin function, ligand interaction and signalling pathways suggest novel strategies for inhibiting integrin function that could help harness their full potential as therapeutic targets.

Abstract
The design and synthesis of peptidic and nonpeptidic integrin ligands derived from the most abundant natural tripeptide sequence, RGD, are described in this article. Special emphasis is placed on the activity and selectivity of the ligands to integrin subtypes. Two approaches are described-ligand- and structure-oriented design. When no structure of the complex or the target is known, one may derive suitable starting points from natural peptide sequences, which often require conformational restriction for a further optimization. A "spatial screening" procedure was used to identify highly active and selective ligands for the integrin subtypes alphavbeta3 and alphaIIbbeta3. Structure-based methods require knowledge of the binding domain of the target. Hence, the first structure of the alphavbeta3 integrin with bound cilengitide was a landmark for the structure-based approach. Meanwhile, a design using homology models of other integrin subtypes has also been successfully applied. To improve the ADME profile, nonpeptidic ligands have been developed using the information of the spatial distances and orientations of the most important pharmacophoric groups (especially the carboxyl group and the basic moiety at the other end of the molecule). Applications of the alphavbeta3 ligands as drugs in antiangiogenic tumor therapy for molecular imaging of metastases and for improvement of biocompatibility of grafts are briefly described.

Abstract
Integrin alphavbeta3 has been implicated in multiple aspects of tumor progression and metastasis. Many tumors have high expression of alphavbeta3 that correlates with tumor progression. Therefore, alphavbeta3 receptor is an excellent target for drug design and delivery. We have discovered a series of novel alphavbeta3 antagonists utilizing common feature pharmacophore models. Upon validation using a database of known alphavbeta3 receptor antagonists, a highly discriminative pharmacophore model was used as a 3D query. A search of a database of 600 000 compounds using the pharmacophore Hypo5 yielded 832 compounds. On the basis of structural novelty, 29 compounds were tested in alphavbeta3 receptor specific binding assay and four compounds showed excellent binding affinity. A limited SAR analysis on the active compound 26 resulted in the discovery of two compounds with nanomolar to subnanomolar binding affinity. These small-molecule compounds could be conjugated to paclitaxel for selective delivery to alphavbeta3 positive metastatic cancer cells.

Abstract
The binding of lead compounds and drugs to human serum albumin (HSA) is a ubiquitous problem in drug discovery since it modulates the availability of the leads and drugs to their intended target, which is linked to biological efficacy. In our continuing efforts to identify small molecule alpha(V)beta(3) and alpha(V)beta(5) dual antagonists, we recently reported indoles 2-4 as potent and selective alpha(V)beta(3)/alpha(V)beta(5) antagonists with good oral bioavailability profile. In spite of subnanomolar binding affinity of these compounds to human alpha(V)beta(3) and alpha(V)beta(5) integrins, high HSA binding (96.5-97.3%) emerged as a limiting feature for these leads. Structure-activity HSA binding data of organic acids reported in the literature have demonstrated that the incorporation of polar groups into a given molecule can dramatically decrease the affinity toward HSA. We sought to apply this strategy by examining the effects of such modifications in both the central core constrain and the substituent beta to the carboxylate. Most of these derivatives were prepared in good yields through a cesium fluoride-catalyzed coupling reaction. This reaction was successful with a variety of nitrogen-containing scaffolds (20, 33, and 43) and selected acetylenic derivatives (16, 19, and 34). Among the compounds synthesized, the 3-[5-[2-(5,6,7,8-tetrahydro [1,8]naphthyridin-2-yl)ethoxy]indol-1-yl]-3-[5-(N,N-dimethylaminomethyl)-3-pyridyl]propionic acid (25) was found to be the most promising derivative within this novel series with a subnanomolar affinity for both alpha(v)beta(3) and alpha(v)beta(5) (IC(50) = 0.29 and 0.16 nM, respectively), similar to our initial lead receptor antagonists 2-4, and exhibiting a low HSA protein binding (40% bound, K(d) = 1.1+/-0.4 x 10(3) microM) and an improved in vitro stability profile toward human and mouse microsomes (99.9% and 98.7% remaining after 10 min). Moreover, the selectivity of 25 toward alpha(5)beta(1) and IIbIIIa integrins was perfectly maintained when compared to the parent leads 2-4. Thus, compound 25 was selected as a new lead with improved drug-like properties for further evaluations in the field of oncology and osteoporosis.

Abstract
A non-peptide mimic of the Arg-Gly Asp (RGD) active sequence of adhesive proteins (such as vitronectin) has been equipped with two different spacer-arms for surface anchorage. The covalent grafting on poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) membrane was realized via the activation of the hydroxyl polymer chain-ends by tosylation followed by nucleophilic substitution. The surface density of peptidomimetics was determined by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), on the basis of F/C atomic ratios since a fluorine tag was incorporated into the RGD-like compounds. The biological activity of soluble peptidomimetics was evaluated versus isolated human integrin alpha(v)beta(3) (vitronectin receptor), and versus CaCo2 cells. Inhibition of cellular adhesion was observed after pre-incubation of CaCo2 cells with soluble peptidomimetics. On the other hand a significant promotion of cellular adhesion resulted from the surface grafting of peptidomimetics on the PET culture substrate. The best performance was obtained with the RGD-like integrin ligand bearing a triethylene glycol spacer-arm.

Abstract
A novel series of potent and selective alpha(v)beta(3)/alpha(v)beta(5) dual( )()inhibitors was designed, synthesized, and evaluated against several integrins. These compounds were synthesized through a Mitsunobu reaction between the guanidinium mimetics and the corresponding central templates. Guanidinium mimetics with enhaced rigidity (i.e., (2-pyridylamino)propoxy versus the 2-(6-methylamino-2-pyridyl)ethoxy) led to improved activity toward alpha(v)beta(3). Exemplary oral bioavailability in mice was achieved using the indole central scaffold. Although, oral bioavailability was maintained when the indole molecular core was replace with the bioisosteric benzofuran or benzothiophene ring systems, it was found to not significantly impact the integrin activity or selectivity. However, the indole series displayed the best in vivo pharmacokinetic properties. Thus, the indole series was selected for further structure-activity relationships to obtain more potent alpha(v)beta(3)/alpha(v)beta(5) dual antagonist with improved oral bioavailability.

Abstract
A series of beta-diketone derivatives of RGD peptidomimetics that selectively bind to alphavbeta3 and alphavbeta5 integrins were synthesized and covalently docked to the reactive lysine residues of monoclonal aldolase antibody 38C2. The resulting targeting devices strongly and selectively bound to human cancer cells expressing integrins alphavbeta3 and alphavbeta5 as analyzed by flow cytometry. In vitro and in vivo studies revealed that these novel integrin-targeting devices efficiently inhibit tumor growth. Thus, the combination of beta-diketone derivatives of RGD peptidomimetics that target cell surface integrins alphavbeta3 and alphavbeta5 with monoclonal aldolase antibodies through formation of a covalent bond of defined stoichiometry holds promise as a new approach to cancer therapy.

Abstract
We have employed echistatin, a 5.4 kDa snake venom disintegrin, as a model protein to investigate the paradox that small ligand-mimetics can bind to the resting alphaIIbbeta3 integrin while adhesive macromolecules cannot. We characterized the interactions between purified human alphaIIbbeta3 and two recombinant echistatin variants: rEch (1-49) M28L, chosen for its selectivity toward beta3-integrins, and rEch (1-40) M28L, a carboxy-terminal truncation mutant. While both contain an RGD integrin targeting sequence, only rEch (1-49) M28L was an effective inhibitor of alphaIIbbeta3 function. Electron microscopy of rotary shadowed specimens yielded a variety of alphaIIbbeta3 conformers ranging from compact, spherical particles (maximum dimension 22 nm) to the classical "head with two tails" forms (32 nm). The population of larger particles (42-56 nm) increased from 17% to 28% in the presence of rEch (1-49) M28L, indicative of ligand-induced oligomerization. Sedimentation velocity measurements demonstrated that both full length and truncated echistatin perturbed alphaIIbbeta3's solution structure, yielding slower-sedimenting open conformers. Dynamic light scattering showed that rEch (1-49) M28L protected alphaIIbbeta3 from thermal aggregation, raising its transition mid-point from 46 degrees C to 69 degrees C; a smaller shift resulted with rEch (1-40) M28L. Sedimentation equilibrium demonstrated that both echistatin ligands induced substantial alphaIIbbeta3 dimerization. van't Hoff analysis revealed a pattern of entropy/enthalpy compensation similar to tirofiban, a small RGD ligand-mimetic that binds tightly to alphaIIbbeta3, but yields smaller conformational perturbations than echistatin. We propose that echistatin may serve as a paradigm for understanding multidomain adhesive macromolecules because its ability to modulate alphaIIbbeta3's structure resides on an RGD loop, while full disintegrin activity requires an auxiliary site that includes the carboxy-terminal nine amino acid residues.

These compounds have excellent in vitro profiles (IC(50) = 0.07 and 0.08 nM, respectively), significant unbound fractions in human plasma (6 and 4%), and good pharmacokinetics in rat, dog, and rhesus monkey. On the basis of the efficacy shown in an in vivo model of bone turnover following once-daily oral administration, these two compounds were selected for clinical development for the treatment of osteoporosis.

Abstract
RGD (Arg-Gly-Asp) peptidomimetics have been designed for covalent anchorage on biomaterials. The tyrosine template was thus equipped with (i) a basic side chain of various flexibility, (ii) an acidic side chain, which incorporated the XPS fluorine tag, and (iii) a spacer-arm terminated by a primary amine for surface grafting. The most active compounds showed IC50 values in the nanomolar range versus isolated human integrins alphaVbeta3 and alphaIIbbeta3. Preincubation of CaCo2 cells with soluble peptidomimetics (2 and 19a) prevented cellular adhesion on culture plates coated with vitronectin. On the other hand, peptidomimetics (19a and 19b) immobilized on a poly(ethylene)terephthalate membrane (PET) promoted CaCo2 cells adhesion. A modeling study at the ab initio level in MINI-1' basis allowed to compare the various synthetic ligands of integrins and to propose novel pharmacophore structures.

Abstract
A novel and highly efficient flexible docking approach is presented where the conformations (internal degrees of freedom) and orientations (external degrees of freedom) of the ligands are successively considered. This hybrid method takes advantage of the synergistic effects of structure-based and ligand-based drug design techniques. Preliminary antagonist-derived pharmacophore determination provides the postulated bioactive conformation. Subsequent docking of this pharmacophore to the receptor crystal structure results in a postulated pharmacophore/receptor binding mode. Pharmacophore-oriented docking of antagonists is subsequently achieved by matching ligand interacting groups with pharmacophore points. Molecular dynamics in water refines the proposed complexes. To validate the method, arginine-glycine-aspartic acid (RGD) containing peptides, pseudopeptides, and RGD-like antagonists were docked to the crystal structure of alphavbeta3 holoprotein and apoprotein. The proposed directed docking was found to be more accurate, faster, and less biased with respect to the protein structure (holo and apoprotein) than DOCK, Autodock, and FlexX docking methods. The successful docking of an antagonist recently cocrystallized with the receptor to both apo and holoprotein is particularly appealing. The results summarized in this report illustrated the efficiency of our light CoMFA/rigid body docking hybrid method.

Abstract
The recently reported crystal structures of the extracellular domains of the alphavbeta3 integrin in its unligated state and in complex with the peptide cyclo(-RGDf[NMe]V-) have dramatically increased our understanding of ligand binding to integrins. Nonetheless, ligand selectivity toward different integrin subtypes is still a challenging problem complicated by the fact that 3D structures of most of the integrin subtypes remain unknown. In this study, a three-dimensional model for the human alphavbeta5 integrin was obtained using homology modeling based on the crystal coordinates of alphavbeta3 in its bound conformation as template. The modeled receptor was refined using energy minimization and molecular dynamics simulations in explicit solvent. The refined alphavbeta5 model was used to explore the interactions between this integrin and alphavbeta3/alphavbeta5 dual and alphavbeta3-selective ligands in the attempt to provide a preliminary rationalization, at the molecular level, of ligand selectivity toward the two alphav integrins. It was found that, in the RGD binding site of the alphavbeta5 receptor, a partial "roof" composed mainly of the SDL residues Tyr179 and Lys180 is present and hampers the binding of compounds containing bulky substituents in the proximity of the carboxylate group. This study provides a testable hypothesis for alphav integrins subtype ligand binding selectivity, in line with both mutagenesis data and SARs studies.

Abstract
Novel alphavbeta3 antagonists based on the N-aryl-gamma-lactam scaffold were prepared. SAR studies led to the identification of potent antagonists for alphavbeta3 receptor with excellent selectivity against the structurally related alpha(IIb)beta3 receptor. Additional interactions of N-aryl-gamma-lactam derivatives with alphavbeta3 were found when compared to c(-RGDf[NMe]V-) peptide antagonist. The effects of the conformation and configuration of the gamma-lactam core on the binding were also assessed.

Abstract
Starting from the first crystal structure of the extracellular segment of the alpha(v)beta(3) integrin receptor with a cyclic RGD ligand bound to the active site, structural models for the interactions of known ligands with the alpha(v)beta(3) integrin receptor were generated by automated computational docking. The obtained complexes were evaluated for their consistency with structure-activity relationships and site-directed mutagenesis data. A comparison between the calculated interaction free energies and the experimental biological activities was also made. All the possible interactions of the investigated compounds at the active site and the probable ligand binding conformations provide an improved basis for structure-based rational ligand design. Additionally, our docking results allow a further validation and refinement of the pharmacophore model previously postulated by us.

Abstract
A molecular model of the alpha(IIb)beta(3) integrin has been developed utilizing (i). the crystal structure of alpha(v)beta(3), (ii). homology model of the alpha(IIb) subdomain, and (iii). the docking of alpha(IIb)beta(3)/alpha(v)beta(3) dual and selective inhibitors into the putative binding sites of alpha(IIb)beta(3) and alpha(v)beta(3). Since the binding sites of these integrins are located at the interface between the two heads of the individual subunits, only the alpha(IIb)beta(3) head region is modeled. The 3D conformations of two loops in alpha(IIb), whose residues have been implicated in non-peptide ligand binding, could not be determined from homology with alpha(v) alone. Mutagenesis data and the modeling of small ligand binding contributed to the rational design of these loop conformations. The final energy minimized loop conformations exhibit permissible phi/psi angles and contribute to a binding site model of alpha(IIb)beta(3) that is consistent with both the known mutagenesis studies and in-house structure-activity relationships. The charged residues alpha(IIb):E117 and beta(3):R214 are found to dominate the ligand-protein binding interaction. The previously identified "exosite" is also identified as a hydrogen bond, hydrophobic or pi-pi interaction with Y190, similar to the recently proposed binding model of alpha(v)beta(3).

Abstract
Integrins are cell adhesion receptors that couple extracellular divalent cation-dependent recognition events with intracellular mechanical and biochemical responses and vice versa, thus affecting every function of nucleated cells. The structural basis of this bidirectional signaling and its dependency on cations has been the focus of intensive study over the past three decades. Significant progress made recently in elucidating the three-dimensional structure of the extracellular and cytoplasmic segments of integrins is giving valuable new insights into the tertiary and quaternary changes that underlie activation, ligand recognition and signaling by these receptors.
