A new series of 1,3-diketone, heterocyclic and α,β-unsaturated derivatives were synthesized and evaluated for their AhR antagonist activity using zebrafish and mammalian cells. Compounds 1b, 2c, 3b and 5b showed significant AhR antagonist activity in a transgenic zebrafish model. Among them, compound 3b, and 5b were found to have excellent AhR antagonist activity with IC of 3.36 nM and 8.3 nM in a luciferase reporter gene assay. In stem cell proliferation assay, compound 5b elicited marked HSC expansion.
合成了一系列新的 1,3-二酮、杂环和α,β-不饱和衍生物,并利用斑马鱼和哺乳动物细胞评估了它们对 AhR 拮抗剂的活性。化合物 1b、2c、3b 和 5b 在转基因斑马鱼模型中表现出显著的 AhR 拮抗剂活性。其中,化合物 3b 和 5b 在荧光素酶报告基因检测中表现出优异的 AhR 拮抗剂活性,IC 分别为 3.36nM 和 8.3nM。在干细胞增殖试验中,化合物 5b 引起明显的 HSC 扩增。
