Targeting SERCA2 in Anti-Tumor Drug Discovery.

SERCA2, a P-type ATPase located on the endoplasmic reticulum of cells, plays an important role in maintaining calcium balance within cells by transporting calcium from the cytoplasm to the endoplasmic reticulum against its concentration gradient. A multitude of studies have demonstrated that the expression of SERCA2 is abnormal in a wide variety of tumor cells. Consequently, research exploring compounds that target SERCA2 may offer a promising avenue for the development of novel anti-tumor drugs. This review has summarized the anti-tumor compounds targeting SERCA2, including thapsigargin, dihydroartemisinin, curcumin, galangin, etc. These compounds interact with SERCA2 on the endoplasmic reticulum membrane, disrupting intracellular calcium ion homeostasis, leading to tumor cell apoptosis, autophagy and cell cycle arrest, ultimately producing anti-tumor effects. Additionally, several potential research directions for compounds targeting SERCA2 as clinical anti-cancer drugs have been proposed in the review. In summary, SERCA2 is a promising anti-tumor target for drug discovery and development.

Design, synthesis and anticancer activity of β-carboline based pseudo-natural products by inhibiting AKT/mTOR signaling pathway

Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the most common type of lung cancer and remains the leading cause of cancer deaths. Much progress has been made to treat NSCLC, however, only limited patients can benefit from current treatments. Thus, more efforts are needed to pursue novel molecular modalities for NSCLC treatment. It was demonstrated that pseudo-natural products (PNP) are a critical source for antitumor drug discovery. Herein, we describe a CH activation protocol for the expedient construction of a focused library utilizing the PNP rational design strategy. This protocol features a rhodium-catalyzed CH activation/ [4+2] annulation reaction between N-OAc-indole-2-carboxamide and alkynyl quinols, enabling facile access to diverse quinol substituted β-carboline derivatives (31 examples). The anticancer activities were assessed in vitro against NSCLC cell line A549, yielding a potent antiproliferative β-carboline derivative (8r) with an IC50 value of 0.8 ± 0.1 µM. Further investigation revealed that this compound could decrease the expression of Caspase 3, and increase the expression of autophagic protein Cyclin B1, thus markedly inducing autophagy and apoptosis. Mechanistic study suggested that 8r could be a potent anti-NSCLC agent through the AKT/mTOR signaling pathway in A549 cells. Moreover, the anticancer activities were also assessed against three other cancer cell lines, and 8r exhibits a broader inhibitory effect on cell proliferation in all cancer cell lines tested. These results indicated that carboline-based PNPs show great potential to induce cell autophagy and apoptosis, which serve as good leads for further drug discovery.

Discovery of a potent and selective JAK1-targeting PROTAC degrader with anti-tumor activities

Aberrant activation of the JAK-STAT pathway is evident in various human diseases including cancers. Proteolysis targeting chimeras (PROTACs) provide an attractive strategy for developing novel JAK-targeting drugs. Herein, a series of CRBN-directed JAK-targeting PROTACs were designed and synthesized utilizing a JAK1/JAK2 dual inhibitor—momelotinib as the warhead. The most promising compound 10c exhibited both good enzymatic potency and cellular antiproliferative effects. Western blot analysis revealed that compound 10c effectively and selectively degraded JAK1 in a proteasome-dependent manner (DC50 = 214 nM). Moreover, PROTAC 10c significantly suppressed JAK1 and its key downstream signaling. Together, compound 10c may serve as a novel lead compound for antitumor drug discovery.

Screening Splice-Switching Antisense Oligonucleotides in Pancreas-Cancer Organoids.

Aberrant alternative splicing is emerging as a cancer hallmark and a potential therapeutic target. It is the result of dysregulated or mutated splicing factors, or genetic alterations in splicing-regulatory cis-elements. Targeting individual altered splicing events associated with cancer-cell dependencies is a potential therapeutic strategy, but several technical limitations need to be addressed. Patient-derived organoids are a promising platform to recapitulate key aspects of disease states, and to facilitate drug development for precision medicine. Here, we report an efficient antisense-oligonucleotide (ASO) lipofection method to systematically evaluate and screen individual splicing events as therapeutic targets in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma organoids. This optimized delivery method allows fast and efficient screening of ASOs, e.g., those that reverse oncogenic alternative splicing. In combination with advances in chemical modifications of oligonucleotides and ASO-delivery strategies, this method has the potential to accelerate the discovery of antitumor ASO drugs that target pathological alternative splicing.

Cyclovirobuxine D inhibits the growth of osteosarcoma cells through the induction of autophagy flux arrest by promoting lysosomal acidification

Osteosarcoma (OS) is an aggressive primary tumor with the highest incidence in children and adolescents. Natural plant compounds (NPCs) have long been promising resources in the field of antitumor drug discovery because of their high efficacy and low toxicity. Here, the aim of this study is to investigate the potential inhibitory effects of Cyclovirobuxine D (CVB-D), a natural bioactive isolated from the traditional Chinese medicinal herb Huangyang, on OS cells. We showed that CVB-D reduced OS cell growth in vitro and in vivo. Mechanistically, CVB-D inhibited PI3K-AKT-mTOR pathway and initiated autophagy. On the other hand, CVB-D induced lysosomal over-acidification by interacting with the V-type proton ATPase 116 kDa subunit a1 (ATP6V0A1), ultimately leading to autophagy flux arrest which might be related to the inhibitory effect of CVB-D on OS cells. Conclusively, our results propose a potential foundation for CVB-D to be developed into an anti-OS drug and an autophagy inhibitor.

Discovery of Novel Dual Inhibitors Targeting Mutant IDH1 and NAMPT for the Treatment of Glioma with IDH1Mutation.

The targeting of cancer cell intrinsic metabolism has emerged as a promising strategy for antitumor intervention. In the study, we identified the first-in-class small molecules that effectively inhibit both mutant isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (mIDH1) and nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase (NAMPT), two crucial targets in cancer metabolism, through structure-based drug design. Notably, compound 23h exhibits excellent and balanced inhibitory activities against both mIDH1 (IC50 = 14.93 nM) and NAMPT (IC50 = 12.56 nM), leading to significant suppression of IDH1-mutated glioma cell (U87 MG-IDH1R132H) proliferation. Significantly, compound 23h has the ability to cross the blood-brain barrier (B/P ratio, 0.76) and demonstrates remarkable in vivo antitumor efficacy (20 mg/kg) in the U87 MG-IDH1R132H orthotopic transplantation mouse models without any notable toxicity. This proof-of-concept investigation substantiates the viability of discovering small molecules that concurrently target mIDH1 and NAMPT, providing valuable leads for the treatment of glioma and an efficient approach for the discovery of multitarget antitumor drugs.

Reducing PD-L1 Expression by Degraders and Downregulators as a Novel Strategy to Target the PD-1/PD-L1 Pathway.

Targeting the programmed cell death protein-1 (PD-1)/programmed cell death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) pathway has evolved into one of the most promising strategies for tumor immunotherapy. Thus far, multiple monoclonal antibody drugs have been approved for treating a variety of tumors, while the development of small-molecule PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors has lagged far behind, with only a few small-molecule inhibitors entering clinical trials. In addition to antibody drugs and small-molecule inhibitors, reducing the expression levels of PD-L1 has attracted extensive research interest as another promising strategy to target the PD-1/PD-L1 pathway. Herein, we analyze the structures and mechanisms of molecules that reduce PD-L1 expression and classify them as degraders and downregulators according to whether they directly bind to PD-L1. Moreover, we discuss the potential prospects for developing PD-L1-targeting drugs based on these molecules. It is hoped that this perspective will provide profound insights into the discovery of potent antitumor immunity drugs.

Securinine inhibits the tumor growth of human bladder cancer cells by suppressing Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway and activating p38 and JNK signaling pathways

Bladder cancer (BC) is the most common malignant tumor in urinary system. Although chemotherapy is one of the most important adjuvant treatments for BC, drug resistance, non-specific toxicity and severe side effects are the major obstacles to BC chemotherapy. Natural products have always been a leading resource of antitumor drug discovery, with the advantages of excellent effectiveness, low toxicity, multi-targeting potency and easy availability.In this study, we evaluated the potential anti-tumor effect of securinine (SEC), a natural alkaloid from Securinega suffruticosa, on BC cells in vitro and in vivo, and delineated the underlying mechanism. We found that SEC inhibited the proliferation, migration and invasion, induced the apoptosis of BC cells in vitro, and retarded the xenograft tumor growth of BC cell in vivo. Notably, SEC had a promising safety profile because it presented no or low toxicity on normal cells and mice. Mechanistically, SEC inactivated Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway while activated p38 and JNK signaling pathway. Moreover, β-catenin overexpression, the p38 inhibitor SB203580 and the JNK inhibitor SP600125 both mitigated the inhibitory effect of SEC on BC cells. Furthermore, we demonstrated a synergistic inhibitory effect of SEC and gemcitabine (GEM) on BC cells in vitro and in vivo.Taken together, our findings suggest that SEC may exert anti-BC cell effect at least through the activation of p38 and JNK signaling pathways, and the inhibition of Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway. More meaningfully, the findings indicate that GEM-induced BC cell killing can be enhanced by combining with SEC.

Design, synthesis and bioactivity evaluation of the combination of evodiamine and erlotinib linked by indolequinone

Compared with single-targeted therapy, the design and synthesis of heterozygous molecules is still a significant challenge for the discovery of antitumor drugs. Quinone oxidoreductase-1 (NQO1) is a potential target for selective cancer therapy due to its overexpression in many cancer cells and its unique bioredox properties. Based on the principle of combinatorial drug design, we successfully synthesized a new hybrid molecules 13 with an indolequinone structure. We found that the synthesized compounds exhibited much higher cytotoxicity against the tested cancer cells than free drugs. Further mechanism studies confirmed that compound 13 induced cell apoptosis was achieved by regulating p53-dependent mitochondrial pathway and cell cycle arrest at the G0/G1 phase.

Discovery of Novel PDEδ Autophagic Degraders: A Case Study of Autophagy-Tethering Compound (ATTEC).

The autophagy-tethering compound (ATTEC) technology has emerged as a promising strategy for targeted protein degradation (TPD). Here, we report the discovery of the first generation of PDEδ autophagic degraders using an ATTEC approach. The most promising compound 12c exhibited potent PDEδ binding affinity and efficiently induced PDEδ degradation in a concentration-dependent manner. Mechanistic studies confirmed that compound 12c reduced the PDEδ protein level through lysosome-mediated autophagy without affecting the PDEδ mRNA expression. Importantly, compound 12c was much more effective in suppressing the growth in KRAS mutant pancreatic cancer cells than the corresponding PDEδ inhibitor. Taken together, this study expands the application scope of the ATTEC approach and highlights the effectiveness of the PDEδ autophagic degradation strategy in antitumor drug discovery.

Lung cancer organoids: models for preclinical research and precision medicine

Lung cancer is a malignancy with high incidence and mortality rates globally, and it has a 5-year survival rate of only 10%–20%. The significant heterogeneity in clinical presentation, histological features, multi-omics findings, and drug sensitivity among different lung cancer patients necessitate the development of personalized treatment strategies. The current precision medicine for lung cancer, primarily based on pathological and genomic multi-omics testing, fails to meet the needs of patients with clinically refractory lung cancer. Lung cancer organoids (LCOs) are derived from tumor cells within tumor tissues and are generated through three-dimensional tissue culture, enabling them to faithfully recapitulate in vivo tumor characteristics and heterogeneity. The establishment of a series of LCOs biobanks offers promising platforms for efficient screening and identification of novel targets for anti-tumor drug discovery. Moreover, LCOs provide supplementary decision-making factors to enhance the current precision medicine for lung cancer, thereby addressing the limitations associated with pathology-guided approaches in managing refractory lung cancer. This article presents a comprehensive review on the construction methods and potential applications of LCOs in both preclinical and clinical research. It highlights the significance of LCOs in biomarker exploration, drug resistance investigation, target identification, clinical precision drug screening, as well as microfluidic technology-based high-throughput drug screening strategies. Additionally, it discusses the current limitations and future prospects of this field.

Derivatives Incorporating Acridine, Pyrrole, and Thiazolidine Rings as Promising Antitumor Agents.

Derivatives combining acridine, pyrrole, and thiazolidine rings have emerged as promising candidates in the field of antitumor drug discovery. This paper aims to highlight the importance of these three structural motifs in developing potent and selective anticancer agents. The integration of these rings within a single molecule offers the potential for synergistic effects, targeting multiple pathways involved in tumor growth and progression. Spiro derivatives were efficiently synthesized in a two-step process starting from isothiocyanates and 2-cyanoacetohydrazide. The thiourea side chain in spiro derivatives was utilized as a key component for the construction of the thiazolidine-4-one ring through regioselective reactions with bifunctional reagents, namely methyl-bromoacetate, dietyl-acetylenedicarboxylate, ethyl-2-bromopropionate, and ethyl-2-bromovalerate. These reactions resulted in the formation of a single regioisomeric product for each derivative. Advanced spectroscopic techniques, including 1D and 2D NMR, FT-IR, HRMS, and single-crystal analysis, were employed to meticulously characterize the chemical structures of the synthesized derivatives. Furthermore, the influence of these derivatives on the metabolic activity of various cancer cell lines was assessed, with IC50 values determined via MTT assays. Notably, derivatives containing ester functional groups exhibited exceptional activity against all tested cancer cell lines, boasting IC50 values below 10 μM. Particularly striking were the spiro derivatives with methoxy groups at position 3 and nitro groups at position 4 of the phenyl ring. These compounds displayed remarkable selectivity and exhibited heightened activity against HCT-116 and Jurkat cell lines. Additionally, 4-oxo-1,3-thiazolidin-2-ylidene derivatives demonstrated a significant activity against MCF-7 and HCT-116 cancer cell lines.

Podophyllotoxin-loaded PEGylated E-selectin peptide conjugate targeted cancer site to enhance tumor inhibition and reduce side effect

E-selectin, which is highly expressed in vascular endothelial cells near tumor and get involved in the all tumor growth steps: occurrence, proliferation and metastasis, is considered as a promise targeted protein for antitumor drug discovery. Herein, we would like to report the design, preparation and the anticancer evaluation of the peptide-PEG-podophyllotoxin conjugate(PEG-Pep-PODO), in which the short peptide (CIELLQAR) was used as the E-selectin ligand for the targeting purpose and the PEG portion the molecule got the conjugate self-assembled to form a water soluble nanoparticle. In vitro release study showed that the conjugated and entrapped PODO could be released simultaneously in the presence of GSH (highly expressed in tumor environmental conditions) and the GSH would catalyze the break of the disufur bond which linked of the PODO and the peptide-PEG portion of the conjugate. Cell adhesion test of the PEG-Pep-PODO indicated that E-selectin ligand peptide CIELLQAR could get specifically and efficiently binding to the E-selectin expressing human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC). In vitro cytotoxicity assay further revealed that PEG-Pep-PODO significantly improved the selectivity of PEG-Pep-PODO for killing the tumor cells and normal cells compared with PODO solution formulation. More importantly, the in vivo experiment demonstrated that the conjugate would accumulate of the PODO payload in tumor through targeting endothelial cells in the tumor microenvironment, which resulted in the much improved in vivo inhibition of tumor growth, intratumoral microvessel density, and decreased systemic toxicity of this nanoparticle over the free PODO. Furthermore, this water soluble conjugate greatly improved the pharmacokinetic properties of the mother molecule.

Design, synthesis and biological evaluation of 4-arylamino-pyrimidine derivatives as focal adhesion kinase inhibitors

A novel series of 4-arylamino-pyrimidine derivatives were designed and synthesized as focal adhesion kinase (FAK) inhibitors under the strategy of structure-based drug design. Most compounds performed excellent anti-proliferative activity against U87-MG cells. Especially, compounds 8d and 9b revealed the highest activity with IC50 values of 0.975 μM and 1.033 μM, which was much potent than the positive control TAE-226 (IC50 = 2.659 μM). On the other hand, the total 27 compounds exhibited low inhibition against human normal 2BS cells. Moreover, compounds 8d and 9b showed outstanding activity against FAK with IC50 values of 0.2438 nM and 0.2691 nM, which was very close to TAE-226 (IC50 = 0.1390 nM). Further studies proved that compounds 8d and 9b could induce U87-MG cell early apoptosis and arrest the cell at G2/M phase. The action mechanism indicated that they could significantly inhibit U87-MG cell clone formation, cell migration, and FAK phosphorylation. Molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulation investigations suggested that compounds 8d and 9b could firmly occupy the ATP binding site of FAK. These findings supported the further researches of compounds 8d and 9b as FAK inhibitors for antitumor drug discovery.

Overall, our work provided new insights into the construction of complex and diverse multiple spiro/fused-heterocyclic systems and offered novel valuable lead compounds for the discovery of antitumor drugs.

Unraveling the complexity of histone-arginine methyltransferase CARM1 in cancer: From underlying mechanisms to targeted therapeutics.

Coactivator-associated arginine methyltransferase 1 (CARM1), a type I protein arginine methyltransferase (PRMT), has been widely reported to catalyze arginine methylation of histone and non-histone substrates, which is closely associated with the occurrence and progression of cancer. Recently, accumulating studies have demonstrated the oncogenic role of CARM1 in many types of human cancers. More importantly, CARM1 has been emerging as an attractive therapeutic target for discovery of new candidate anti-tumor drugs. Therefore, in this review, we summarize the molecular structure of CARM1 and its key regulatory pathways, as well as further discuss the rapid progress in better understanding of the oncogenic functions of CARM1. Moreover, we further demonstrate several representative targeted CARM1 inhibitors, especially focusing on demonstrating their designing strategies and potential therapeutic applications. Together, these inspiring findings would shed new light on elucidating the underlying mechanisms of CARM1 and provide a clue on discovery of more potent and selective CARM1 inhibitors for the future targeted cancer therapy.

Advances of antitumor drug discovery in traditional Chinese medicine and natural active products by using multi-active components combination.

The antitumor efficacy of Chinese herbal medicines has been widely recognized. Leading compounds such as sterols, glycosides, flavonoids, alkaloids, terpenoids, phenylpropanoids, and polyketides constitute their complex active components. The antitumor monomers derived from Chinese medicine possess an attractive anticancer activity. However, their use was limited by low bioavailability, significant toxicity, and side effects, hindering their clinical applications. Recently, new chemical entities have been designed and synthesized by combining natural drugs with other small drug molecules or active moieties to improve the antitumor activity and selectivity, and reduce side effects. Such a novel conjugated drug that can interact with several vital biological targets in cells may have a more significant or synergistic anticancer activity than a single-molecule drug. In addition, antitumor conjugates could be obtained by combining pharmacophores containing two or more known drugs or leading compounds. Based on these studies, the new drug research and development could be greatly shortened. This study reviews the research progress of conjugates with antitumor activity based on Chinese herbal medicine. It is expected to serve as a valuable reference to antitumor drug research and clinical application of traditional Chinese medicine.

Structure-activity relationship study of RSL3-based GPX4 degraders and its potential noncovalent optimization

Ferroptosis is an iron-dependent, non-apoptotic form of cell death involving in various disease processes. Mechanistically, glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) which belongs to the redox enzyme can convert lipid hydroperoxides into innocuous lipid alcohol to protect cells from ferroptosis. Therefore, targeting manipulation of GPX4 may represent a promising strategy for regulating cell redox homeostasis and ferroptosis. In this work, we designed, synthesized and evaluated a series of RSL3-based GPX4 degraders using PROTAC strategy. The structure-activity relationship of these compounds with different E3 ligase ligands, linker lengths and chemical compositions was systematically studied. Compound R17 with carbon chain linker and lenalidomide E3 ligand was selected as the most potent GPX4 degrader for degrading GPX4 protein in nanomolar level either in wild tumor cells or in drug-resistant tumor cells. We also optimized the POI ligand of R17 with chloracetylamine replaced to propionamide to construct noncovalent GPX4 degrader NC-R17. Such noncovalent modification led to a moderate GPX4 degradation activity and represents a promising strategy for the development of noncovalent GPX4 PROTACs. In general, we screened a set of GPX4 degraders to give the compound R17 with excellent protein degradation activity, and further optimization gave the noncovalent degrader NC-R17 with moderate efficacy. These results lay a firm foundation for the discovery of novel anti-tumor drugs targeting GPX4 and offer the proof of concept for the design of noncovalent GPX4 PROTACs.

Abstract 3971: Developing cancer cell based in vitro and in vivo models with CRISPR-mediated knock-in technology for anti-tumor drug discovery

Abstract Human cancer cell lines have long been applied for anti-tumor drug discovery considering their acquired genomic diversity of different carcinomas. Genetic engineering based on cancer cell lines is no doubt a useful and promising approach in induction of new therapeutic targets/elements while maintaining intrinsic characteristics of original cell in parallel. Recently, the emergence of CRISPR knock-in technology has accelerated precise editing across whole genome, from gene depletion, small fragment insertions to site-direct mutations, thereby prompting our understanding of the influence of a specific oncotarget in given tumor genetic background. Herein, by employing CRISPR/Cas9 system, two human cancer cell line-based, inheritable drug resistance models were established where the mutation site C481S of BTK in REC-1 conferred resistance to Ibrutinib and the mutation site R537S/D538G of ESR1 exerted resistance to Fulvestrant in MCF-7. In addition, the engineered cell models also enable the mechanism characterization and development of viable therapeutic agents targeting those oncogenic-driver mutations in a subtype of cancers. The murine colon cancer cell line CT26, which harbors KRASG12D mutation, was genetically modified to express KRASG12C protein to allow for an expandable pocket providing opportunities for compound recruitment. The resultant KRASG12C CT26 cell line showed pronounced inhibitory effect after treatment with AMG510. More interestingly, the therapeutic combination involving both AMG510 and anti-PD1 antibodies demonstrated more effective anti-tumor activities when compared to monotherapy. Moreover, CRIPSR-mediated engineered knock-in cells with a traceable tag linked to endogenous oncotarget also exhibit capability in new therapeutic modality discovery. Based on HiBiT protein tagging technology, we generated a series of HiBiT knock-in cell lines for real-time cell-based protein degradation analysis on various compelling targets, such as ESR1, KRAS, and BRD4, et al. Thereby, the construction of these in vitro and in vivo models with the ease of CRISPR KI technology is indispensable in new generation of therapeutic drug exploration.
