چکیده

We synthesized 3-aroyl-1-arylpyrrole (ARAP) derivatives as potential anticancer agents having different substituents at the pendant 1-phenyl ring. Both the 1-phenyl ring and 3-(3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl)carbonyl moieties were mandatory to achieve potent inhibition of tubulin polymerization, binding of colchicine to tubulin, and cancer cell growth. ARAP 22 showed strong inhibition of the P-glycoprotein-overexpressing NCI-ADR-RES and Messa/Dx5MDR cell lines. Compounds 22 and 27 suppressed in vitro the Hedgehog signaling pathway, strongly reducing luciferase activity in SAG treated NIH3T3 Shh-Light II cells, and inhibited the growth of medulloblastoma D283 cells at nanomolar concentrations. ARAPs 22 and 27 represent a new potent class of tubulin polymerization and cancer cell growth inhibitors with the potential to inhibit the Hedgehog signaling pathway.

Novel tubulin-polymerization inhibitor derived from thalidomide directly induces apoptosis in human multiple myeloma cells: possible anti-myeloma mechanism of thalidomide.

To ascertain the exact anti-myeloma mechanism of thalidomide in vivo, we performed structural development studies of thalidomide, and obtained various analogues with specific molecular properties. Among these derivatives, we found that a new thalidomide analogue, 2-(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)-5-hydroxy-1H-isoindole-1,3-dione (5HPP-33) had the most potent anti-myeloma effect and tubulin-polymerizati...
