Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
Although various dual-target tubulin inhibitors have been designed and synthesised, no dual tubulin-NEDDylation inhibitors as antiproliferative agents were reported so far. In this work, a series of trimethoxyphenyl analogues as potential dual tubulin-NEDDylation inhibitors were synthesised and evaluated for their antiproliferative activity. Among them, compound C11 exhibited the most potent inhibitory activity with IC50 values of 1.17, 2.48, and 1.47 mu M against HepG2, PC3, and MCF7 cells, respectively. In addition, it displayed the potent inhibitory activity against tubulin with an IC50 value of 2.40 mu M and obviously inhibited tubulin polymerisation in HepG2 cells. Furthermore, C11 inhibited NEDDylation by a ATP-dependent manner. Molecular docking studies revealed that the methoxy group and dithiocarbamate group of C11 could form hydrogen bonds with residues of tubulin and E1 NEDD8-activating enzyme (NAE). These results suggested that compound C11 was a dual tubulin-NEDDylation inhibitor with antiproliferative activity.
