This study was focused on the synthesis of new pyrimidines 4a,b, 5a,b and pyrazoles 6a, b as ATP mimicking tyrosine kinase inhibitors of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR). The new compounds were assessed as cytotoxic candidates against human breast cancer cells (MCF-7) and hepatocellular carcinoma cells (HepG-2). All the new compounds appeared as more potent cytotoxic agents than erlotinib, while only compound 4a exhibited more potency than 5-flourouracil and 4b analogue was equipotent to it. Accordingly, the kinase suppression effect of 4a and 4b was further evaluated against EGFR, EGFR and EGFR. Both pyrimidine analogues 4a and 4b displayed outstanding inhibitory activity against EGFR and its two mutated isoforms EGFR and EGFR in comparing to erlotinib and osimertinib as reference drugs. Additionally, all the new analogues were subjected to antimicrobial assay. Interestingly, both 4a and 4b represented the most promising activity of wide spectrum antimicrobial effect against the examined microbes in comparison to gentamycin and ketoconazole as standard drugs. Moreover, docking results proved the good binding interactions of the compounds 4a and 4b with EGFR and EGFR which were in accordance with the results of the in vitro enzyme assay. Additional in silico ADMET studies were performed for the new derivatives which represented their good oral absorption, good drug-likeness properties and low toxicity risks in human.
本研究专注于合成新型嘧啶 4a、b、5a、b 和吡唑 6a、b,作为表皮生长因子受体 (EGFR) 的 ATP 模拟酪氨酸激酶抑制剂。新化合物被评估为针对人乳腺癌细胞 (MCF-7) 和肝癌细胞 (HepG-2) 的细胞毒性候选物。所有新化合物都表现出比厄洛替尼更强的细胞毒性,而只有化合物 4a 比 5-氟尿嘧啶更有效,4b 类似物与之相当。因此,进一步评估了 4a 和 4b 对 EGFR、EGFR 和 EGFR 的激酶抑制作用。与参考药物厄洛替尼和奥希替尼相比,两种嘧啶类似物 4a 和 4b 对 EGFR 及其两种突变同工型 EGFR 和 EGFR 均表现出出色的抑制活性。此外,所有新类似物均进行了抗菌测定。有趣的是,与庆大霉素和酮康唑作为标准药物相比,4a 和 4b 均表现出广谱抗菌作用的最有希望的活性。此外,对接结果证明了化合物 4a 和 4b 与 EGFR 和 EGFR 的良好结合相互作用,这与体外酶测定的结果一致。对新衍生物进行了额外的计算机辅助药物代谢动力学研究,表明它们在人体内具有良好的口服吸收、良好的药物样特性和低毒性风险。
