Forlani, Giuseppe; Sabbioni, Giuseppe; Ragno, Daniele; Petrollino, Davide; Borgatti, Monica published an article in 2021. The article was titled 《Phenyl-substituted aminomethylene-bisphosphonates inhibit human P5C reductase and show antiproliferative activity against proline-hyperproducing tumor cells》, and you may find the article in Journal of Enzyme Inhibition and Medicinal Chemistry.Quality Control of 3,5-Dibromoaniline The information in the text is summarized as follows:
In certain cancers, such as breast, prostate and some lung and skin cancers, the gene for the enzyme catalyzing the second and last step in proline synthesis, δ1-pyrroline-5-carboxylate (P5C) reductase, has been found upregulated. This leads to a higher proline content that exacerbates the effects of the so-called proline-P5C cycle, with tumor cells effectively using this method to increase cell survival. If a method of reducing or inhibiting P5C reductase could be discovered, it would provide new means of treating cancer. To address this point, the effect of some phenyl-substituted derivatives of aminomethylene-bisphosphonic acid, previously found to interfere with the catalytic activity of plant and bacterial P5C reductases, was evaluated in vitro on the human isoform 1 (PYCR1), expressed in E. coli and affinity purified. The 3.5-dibromophenyl- and 3.5-dichlorophenyl-derivatives showed a remarkable effectiveness, with IC50 values lower than 1μM and a mechanism of competitive type against both P5C and NADPH. The actual occurrence in vivo of enzyme inhibition was assessed on myelogenous erythroleukemic K562 and epithelial breast cancer MDA-MB-231 cell lines, whose growth was progressively impaired by concentrations of the dibromo derivative ranging from 10-6 to 10-4 M. Interestingly, growth inhibition was not relieved by the exogenous supply of proline, suggesting that the effect relies on the interference with the proline-P5C cycle, and not on proline starvation. In the part of experimental materials, we found many familiar compounds, such as 3,5-Dibromoaniline(cas: 626-40-4Quality Control of 3,5-Dibromoaniline)
3,5-Dibromoaniline(cas: 626-40-4) belongs to anime. Amines have a free lone pair with which they can coordinate to metal centers. Amine–metal bonds are weaker because amines are incapable of backbonding, but they are still important for sensing applications.While stronger than hydrogen bonds, amine–metal bonds are still weaker than both covalent and ionic bonds.Quality Control of 3,5-Dibromoaniline
