Reevaluating the substrate specificity of the L-type amino acid transporter (LAT1) was written by Chien, Huan-Chieh;Colas, Claire;Finke, Karissa;Springer, Seth;Stoner, Laura;Zur, Arik A.;Venteicher, Brooklynn;Campbell, Jerome;Hall, Colton;Flint, Andrew;Augustyn, Evan;Hernandez, Christopher;Heeren, Nathan;Hansen, Logan;Anthony, Abby;Bauer, Justine;Fotiadis, Dimitrios;Schlessinger, Avner;Giacomini, Kathleen M.;Thomas, Allen A.. And the article was included in Journal of Medicinal Chemistry in 2018.Recommanded Product: 35065-86-2 This article mentions the following:

The L-type amino acid transporter 1 (LAT1, SLC7A5) transports essential amino acids across the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and into cancer cells. To utilize LAT1 for drug delivery, potent amino acid promoieties are desired, as prodrugs must compete with millimolar concentrations of endogenous amino acids. To better understand ligand-transporter interactions that could improve potency, we developed structural LAT1 models to guide the design of substituted analogs of phenylalanine and histidine. Furthermore, we evaluated the structure-activity relationship (SAR) for both enantiomers of naturally occurring LAT1 substrates. Analogs were tested in cis-inhibition and trans-stimulation cell assays to determine potency and uptake rate. Surprisingly, LAT1 can transport amino acid-like substrates with wide-ranging polarities including those containing ionizable substituents. Addnl., the rate of LAT1 transport was generally nonstereoselective even though enantiomers likely exhibit different binding modes. Our findings have broad implications to the development of new treatments for brain disorders and cancer. In the experiment, the researchers used many compounds, for example, 3-Bromophenyl acetate (cas: 35065-86-2Recommanded Product: 35065-86-2).

Relayed Regioselective Alkynylation/Olefination of Unsymmetrical Cyclic Diaryliodonium Species Catalyzed by Cu and Pd: Affording Fluorescent Cytotoxic Benzoxazoles was written by Zhu, Daqian;Liu, Panpan;Lu, Wenhua;Wang, Haiwen;Luo, Bingling;Hu, Yumin;Huang, Peng;Wen, Shijun. And the article was included in Chemistry – A European Journal in 2015.HPLC of Formula: 827-24-7 This article mentions the following:

Although cyclic diaryliodonium species have the potential to act as valuable synthons for cascade transformations, they still remain largely unexplored. The regioselectivity associated with unsym. cyclic diaryliodonium species has previously been known to pose a challenge. A regioselective relayed alkynylation and olefination of unsym. cyclic diaryliodonium species has been achieved by installation of a directing amide group. These relayed transformations were delayed until an oxazole ring had formed, delivering a series of unique fluorescent benzoxazoles. Moreover, some of these synthetic benzoxazoles showed apparent inhibitory activity against malignant cancer cells. Further confocal visualization revealed that benzoxazoles targeted cell nuclei. These findings might provide a novel structural scaffold to develop desirable anticancer agents. The synthesis of the target compounds was achieved by a reaction of [(carbonyl)amino]dibenziodolium trifluoromethanesulfonate salts (iodonium compounds) with (aryl)alkyne derivatives, such as 1-ethynyl-4-(methyl)benzene, 4-(ethynyl)benzoic acid ester, 2-methyl-3-butyn-2-ol, 3-butyn-1-ol. Alkene reactants included 2-propenoic acid 1,1-dimethylethyl ester, 1-penten-3-one, 1-ethenyl-2-nitrobenzene (nitro-styrene), 4-(ethenyl)benzonitrile.

Here, we present a series of dual-target phosphodiesterase 9 (PDE9) and histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors devised as pharmacol. tool compounds for assessing the implications of these two targets in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). These novel inhibitors were designed taking into account the key pharmacophoric features of known selective PDE9 inhibitors as well as privileged chem. structures, bearing zinc binding groups (hydroxamic acids and ortho-amino anilides) that hit HDAC targets. These substituents were selected according to rational criteria and previous knowledge from our group to explore diverse HDAC selectivity profiles (pan-HDAC, HDAC6 selective, and class I selective) that were confirmed in biochem. screens. Their functional response in inducing acetylation of histone and tubulin and phosphorylation of cAMP response element binding (CREB) was measured as a requisite for further progression into complete in vitro absorption, distribution, metabolism and excretion (ADME) and in vivo brain penetration profiling. Compound 31b, a selective HDAC6 inhibitor with acceptable brain permeability, was chosen for assessing in vivo efficacy of these first-in-class inhibitors, as well as studying their mode of action (MoA).

We report structure-activity studies of a large number of dialkyl imidazoles as inhibitors of Trypanosoma cruzi lanosterol-14α-demethylase (L14DM). The compounds have a simple structure compared to posaconazole, another L14DM inhibitor that is an anti-Chagas drug candidate. Several compounds display potency for killing T. cruzi amastigotes in vitro with values of EC50 in the 0.4-10 nM range. Two compounds were selected for efficacy studies in a mouse model of acute Chagas disease. At oral doses of 20-50 mg/kg given after establishment of parasite infection, the compounds reduced parasitemia in the blood to undetectable levels, and anal. of remaining parasites by PCR revealed a lack of parasites in the majority of animals. These dialkyl imidazoles are substantially less expensive to produce than posaconazole and are appropriate for further development toward an anti-Chagas disease clin. candidate.

New 6,6′-dibromo- and 6,6′-bis(dimethylamino)-substituted 2,2′-diphosphinylbiphenyl ligands 1114 were prepared starting from 2,2′-dibromo-4,4′-dimethyl-6,6′-dinitro-1,1′-biphenyl (4). Depending on the phosphine groups [diphenylphosphinyl (11, 13) or diisopropylphosphinyl (12, 14)] the Pd dichloride complexes show different coordination symmetry. Whereas the smaller diphenylphosphinyl groups lead to C2-sym. complexes, the resp. bis(diisopropyl)phosphines 12 and 14 form C1-sym. complexes that show fluxional behavior due to the restricted rotation of the iso-Pr groups as well as the exchange of atom positions within the C1-sym. conformer. All complexes were tested as precatalysts in the Suzuki-Miyaura cross coupling reaction of 2-bromotoluene and phenylboronic acid. The activity of the catalytic system increases with the size of the diphosphines and the donating ability of the ligand. In contrast to C2-sym. Pd complex 15, Pt complex 19 is C1-sym. in the solid state despite the fact that both complexes have the small bis(diphenylphosphinyl)-substituted diphosphine ligand 11 in common.
