Previously, we developed an innovative high-content screening (HCS) approach to quantify neuroblastoma cell differentiation based on neurite outgrowth, a morphological differentiation marker of neuroblastoma cells. Here, we report the utilization of this platform to identify 1-methyl-5-(ethylsulfonyl)-1H-tetrazole (3a) as a new neuroblastoma differentiation agent using the ChemBridge Diverset commercial synthetic small molecule compound library. We show that this activity can be extended to a group of analogues, which can be accessed via a short two-step synthetic sequence. A new analogue, 5-(allylsulfonyl)-1-methyl-1H-tetrazole (3c) was identified in this synthetic effort as a compound that has even more pronounced differentiation and cytotoxic activities than the original hit compound 3a.
此前,我们开发了一种创新的高通量筛选(HCS)方法,基于神经突生长来量化神经母细胞瘤细胞的分化,这是神经母细胞瘤细胞的形态分化标志物。在这里,我们报告了利用该平台,使用 ChemBridge Diverset 商业合成小分子化合物库,将 1-甲基-5-(乙基磺酰基)-1H-四唑(3a)鉴定为一种新的神经母细胞瘤分化剂。我们表明,这种活性可以扩展到一组类似物,这些类似物可以通过短的两步合成序列获得。在这项合成工作中,我们发现了一种新的类似物,5-(烯丙基磺酰基)-1-甲基-1H-四唑(3c),它比原始命中化合物 3a 具有更明显的分化和细胞毒性活性。
