Analogs of (-)-EGCG containing a para-amino group on the D-ring in place of the hydroxyl groups have been synthesized and their proteasome inhibitory activities were studied. We found that, the O-acetylated (-)-EGCG analogs possessing a p-NH(2) or p-NHBoc (Boc; tert-butoxycarbonyl) D-ring (5 and 7) act as novel tumor cellular proteasome inhibitors and apoptosis inducers with potency similar to natural (-)-EGCG and similar to (-)-EGCG peracetate. These data suggest that the acetylated amino-GTP analogs have the potential to be developed into novel anticancer agents.
已经合成了在D环上含有对氨基以取代羟基的(-)-表没食子儿茶素没食子酸酯(-)-EGCG类似物,并研究了它们的蛋白酶体抑制活性。我们发现,具有对氨基或对氨基叔丁氧羰基(Boc;叔丁氧羰基)D环的O-乙酰化(-)-EGCG类似物(5和7)作为新型肿瘤细胞蛋白酶体抑制剂和凋亡诱导剂,其效力与天然(-)-EGCG相似,且与全乙酰化(-)-EGCG相似。这些数据表明,乙酰化氨基-GTP类似物有潜力被开发成新型抗癌药物。
