A novel series of alkyl- or aralkyl-substituted polyamine analogues was synthesized containing a 3-7-3 polyamine backbone. These analogues were evaluated in vitro, and in one case in vivo, for activity as antitrypanosomal agents, and for activity against opportunistic infection caused by Microsporidia. Compound 21 inhibits trypanosomal growth with an IC(50) as low as 31nM, while compound 24 shows promising activity in vitro against trypanosomes, and against Microsporidia in vitro and in vivo.
合成了一系列新型的含有3-7-3多胺主链的烷基或芳烷基取代的多胺类似物。对这些类似物进行了体外评估,并且在一个案例中进行了体内评估,以检测其作为抗锥虫剂的活性以及针对由微孢子虫引起的机会性感染的活性。化合物21抑制锥虫生长,其半数抑制浓度(IC50)低至31 nM,而化合物24在体外对锥虫以及在体外和体内对微孢子虫均显示出有前景的活性。
