The interaction between androgen receptor (AR) and coactivator proteins plays a critical role in AR-mediated prostate cancer (PCa) cell growth, thus its inhibition is emerging as a promising strategy for PCa treatment. To develop potent inhibitors of the AR-coactivator interaction, we have designed and synthesized a series of bis-benzamides by modifying functional groups at the N/C-terminus and side chains. A structure-activity relationship study showed that the nitro group at the N-terminus of the bis-benzamide is essential for its biological activity while the C-terminus can have either a methyl ester or a primary carboxamide. Surveying the side chains with various alkyl groups led to the identification of a potent compound that exhibited antiproliferative activity (IC value of 16 nM) on PCa cells. In addition, biochemical studies showed that exerts its anticancer activity by inhibiting the AR-PELP1 interaction and AR transactivation.
雄激素受体 (AR) 与共激活蛋白之间的相互作用在 AR 介导的前列腺癌 (PCa) 细胞生长中起着关键作用，因此抑制这种相互作用成为治疗 PCa 的一种有前途的策略。为了开发有效的 AR-共激活蛋白相互作用抑制剂，我们通过修饰 N/C 末端和侧链上的官能团设计并合成了一系列双苯甲酰胺。构效关系研究表明，双苯甲酰胺 N 末端的硝基是其生物活性所必需的，而 C 末端可以是甲酯或伯酰胺。用各种烷基侧链进行考察，确定了一种有效的化合物，该化合物对 PCa 细胞表现出抗增殖活性（IC 值为 16 nM）。此外，生化研究表明，通过抑制 AR-PELP1 相互作用和 AR 反式激活，发挥其抗癌活性。
