Abstract
Heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) represents an attractive cancer therapeutic target due to its role in the stabilization and maturation of many oncogenic proteins. We have designed a series of hybrid Hsp90 inhibitors by connecting the resorcinol ring of VER-49009 (2) and the trimethoxyphenyl ring of PU3 (3) using structure-based approach. Subsequent testing established that compound 1f inhibited gefitinib-resistant H1975 cell proliferation, brought about the degradation of Hsp90 client proteins including EGFR, Met, Her2 and Akt and induced the expression of Hsp70. The design, synthesis, and evaluation of 1f are described herein.
