Abstract
Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase 1 (IDO1) is considered as an important therapeutic target for the treatment of cancer, chronic infections and other diseases that are associated with immune suppression. Recent developments in understanding the catalytic mechanism of the IDO1 enzyme revealed that conversion of l-tryptophan (l-Trp) to N-formylkynurenine proceeded through an epoxide intermediate state. Accordingly, we synthesized a series of 3-substituted oxindoles from l-Trp, tryptamine and isatin. Compounds with C3-substituted oxindole moieties showed moderate inhibitory activity against the purified human IDO1 enzyme. Their optimization led to the identification of potent compounds, 6, 22, 23 and 25 (IC50 = 0.19 to 0.62 μM), which are competitive inhibitors of IDO1 with respect to l-Trp. These potent compounds also showed IDO1 inhibition potencies in the low-micromolar range (IC50 = 0.33-0.49 μM) in MDA-MB-231 cells. The cytotoxicity of these potent compounds was trivial in different model cancer (MDA-MB-231, A549 and HeLa) cells and macrophage (J774A.1) cells. Stronger selectivity for the IDO1 enzyme (124 to 210-fold) over the tryptophan 2,3-dioxygenase (TDO) enzyme was also observed for these compounds. These results suggest that the oxindole moiety of the compounds could mimic the epoxide intermediate state of l-Trp. Therefore, the structural simplicity and low-micromolar inhibition potencies of these 3-substituted oxindoles make them quite attractive for further investigation of IDO1 function and immunotherapeutic applications.

Oncotarget 2017; 8:60159-60172. [PMID: 28947961 PMCID: PMC5601129 DOI: 10.18632/oncotarget.18569] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/20/2016] [Accepted: 06/10/2017] [Indexed: 02/03/2023] Open
Abstract
Using high-throughput small molecule screening targeting furin gene, we identified that phorbol esters dPPA (12-Deoxyphorbol 13-phenylacetate 20-acetate) and dPA (12-Deoxyphorbol 13-acetate) significantly increased furin protein and mRNA expression in SH-SY5Y cells. This effect was prevented by PKC (protein kinase C) inhibitor calphostin C but not Ro318220, suggesting that the C1 domain, rather than the catalytic domain of PKC plays an important role. Luciferase assay revealed that nucleotides -7925 to -7426 were sufficient to mediate dPPA/dPA enhancement of furin P1 promoter activity. RNA interference of transcriptional factors CEBPβ (CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein β) and GATA1 revealed that knockdown of CEBPβ significantly attenuated the effect of dPPA on furin expression. Pharmacological inhibition of ERK and PI3K but not TGFβ receptor diminished the up-regulation of furin by dPPA. These results suggested that in neuronal cells, transcriptional activation of furin by dPPA/dPA may be initiated by C1 domain containing proteins including PKC; the intracellular signaling involves ERK and PI3K and transcription factor CEBPβ.

Abstract
Protein kinase C (PKC)-C1 domain targeted regulator development is considered as a potential therapeutic strategy for the treatment of cancer and immunological and other diseases. Efforts are underway to synthesize small molecules to achieve higher specificity for the C1-domain than the natural activator, diacylglycerols (DAGs). In this regard, we conveniently synthesized 4-hydroxy-3-(hydroxymethyl) phenyl ester analogues and measured in vitro C1-domain binding properties. We also investigated different physicochemical properties of the synthesized molecules, including aggregation behavior in aqueous solution and interaction with lipid bilayers, and others with an aim for better understanding of their C1-domain binding properties. The results showed that the membrane-active compounds aggregate in aqueous solution at a reasonably lower concentration and strongly interact with the lipid bilayer. The hydrophilic part of the compounds localize at the bilayer/water interface and accessible for C1-domain binding. Biophysical studies revealed that the hydroxyl, hydroxymethyl, and carbonyl groups and acyl chain length are important for their interaction with the C1-domain. The potent compound showed more than 10-fold stronger binding affinity for the C1-domains than DAG under similar experimental conditions. Therefore, our findings reveal that these ester analogues represent an attractive group of C1-domain ligands that can be further structurally modified to improve their binding and activity.
