Abstract

Tigliane esters show many biological activities, including anti-HIV-1 activity. Our aim in this study was to establish structure-anti-HIV activity relationships for four series of tigliane-type diterpenoids. We synthesized and evaluated 29 new phorbol ester derivatives for anti-HIV activity and for cytotoxicity against human tumor cell lines. Among them, three derivatives, two phorbol-13-monoesters (5d and 5e) and a phorbol-12,13-diester (6a), showed significant anti-HIV activity. We found that better anti-HIV activity was often associated with a shorter acyl ester at C-13. Particularly, compounds with a phenyl ring in the ester side chain exhibited excellent anti-HIV activity and had good safety indexes. Due to its significant anti-HIV potency with a high selectivity index, phorbol-12,13-dicinnamoate (6a) was chosen as the potential candidate for further preclinical trials.

摘要

丁香烷酯类化合物具有多种生物活性，包括抗 HIV-1 活性。本研究旨在建立四个系列丁香烷型二萜类化合物的结构-抗 HIV 活性关系。我们合成并评估了 29 种新型佛波醇酯衍生物的抗 HIV 活性和对人肿瘤细胞系的细胞毒性。其中，三个衍生物，两种佛波醇-13-单酯（5d 和 5e）和一种佛波醇-12,13-二酯（6a）表现出显著的抗 HIV 活性。我们发现，C-13 位较短的酰基酯通常与更好的抗 HIV 活性相关。特别是，酯侧链中含有苯环的化合物表现出优异的抗 HIV 活性，且安全指数良好。由于其显著的抗 HIV 效力和高选择性指数，肉桂酰佛波醇-12,13-二酯（6a）被选为进一步临床前试验的潜在候选药物。
