A series of AKT inhibitors possessing a piperidin-4-yl side chain was designed and synthesized. Some of them showed high AKT1 inhibitory activity and potent anti-proliferative effect on PC-3 prostate cancer cells in the preliminary screening. Further studies revealed the most potent compound, , as a pan-AKT inhibitor. Compound was able to inhibit the cellular phosphorylation of AKT effectively and induce apoptosis of PC-3 cells. It also showed high metabolic stability in human liver microsomes. Preclinical characterization of , a promising lead AKT inhibitor, as a potential anti-prostate cancer therapeutic needs to be further investigated.
设计并合成了一系列具有哌啶-4-基侧链的AKT抑制剂。在初步筛选中,其中一些显示出高AKT1抑制活性以及对PC-3前列腺癌细胞的强效抗增殖作用。进一步研究表明,最有效的化合物 为一种泛AKT抑制剂。化合物 能够有效抑制AKT的细胞磷酸化并诱导PC-3细胞凋亡。它在人肝微粒体中也显示出高代谢稳定性。作为一种有前景的先导AKT抑制剂, 的临床前特性作为潜在的抗前列腺癌治疗药物有待进一步研究。
