Abstract
Non-cationic and amphipathic indoloazepinone-constrained (Aia) oligomers have been synthesized as new vectors for intracellular delivery. The conformational preferences of the [l-Aia-Xxx]n oligomers were investigated by circular dichroism (CD) and NMR spectroscopy. Whereas Boc-[l-Aia-Gly]2,4 -OBn oligomers 12 and 13 and Boc-[l-Aia-β3 -h-l-Ala]2,4 -OBn oligomers 16 and 17 were totally or partially disordered, Boc-[l-Aia-l-Ala]2 -OBn (14) induced a typical turn stabilized by C5 - and C7 -membered H-bond pseudo-cycles and aromatic interactions. Boc-[l-Aia-l-Ala]4 -OBn (15) exhibited a unique structure with remarkable T-shaped π-stacking interactions involving the indole rings of the four l-Aia residues forming a dense hydrophobic cluster. All of the proposed FITC-6-Ahx-[l-Aia-Xxx]4 -NH2 oligomers 19-23, with the exception of FITC-6-Ahx-[l-Aia-Gly]4 -NH2 (18), were internalized by MDA-MB-231 cells with higher efficiency than the positive references penetratin and Arg8 . In parallel, the compounds of this series were successfully explored in an in vitro blood-brain barrier (BBB) permeation assay. Although no passive diffusion permeability was observed for any of the tested Ac-[l-Aia-Xxx]4 -NH2 oligomers in the PAMPA model, Ac-[l-Aia-l-Arg]4 -NH2 (26) showed significant permeation in the in vitro cell-based human model of the BBB, suggesting an active mechanism of cell penetration.
