p53-independent malignant cancer is still severe health problem of human beings. HIF-1 pathway is believed to play an important role in the survival and developing progress of such cancers. In the present study, with the aim to inhibit the proliferation of p53-independent malignant cells, we disclose the optimization of 6a, the starting compound which is discovered in the screening of in-house compound collection. The structure-activity relationship (SAR) is summarized. The most potent derivative 8d, inhibits the proliferation of both p53-null and p53-mutated cells through inhibition of HIF-1 pathway. Our findings here provide a new chemotype in designing potent anticancer agent especially against those p53-independent malignant tumors.
不依赖p53的恶性肿瘤仍是人类面临的严重健康问题。缺氧诱导因子-1(HIF-1)信号通路被认为在此类癌症的存活和发展进程中发挥重要作用。在本研究中,为了抑制不依赖p53的恶性细胞增殖,我们公开了对6a(从内部化合物库筛选中发现的起始化合物)的优化。总结了构效关系(SAR)。最有效的衍生物8d通过抑制HIF-1信号通路抑制p53缺失和p53突变细胞的增殖。我们的研究结果为设计强效抗癌药物,尤其是针对那些不依赖p53的恶性肿瘤提供了一种新的化学类型。
