Lengthening the Guanidine–Aryl Linker of Phenylpyrimidinylguanidines Increases Their Potency as Inhibitors of FOXO3-Induced Gene Transcription
Original language description
Increased FOXO3 nuclear localization is involved in neuroblastoma chemoresistance and tumor angiogenesis. Accordingly, FOXO3 inhibition is a promising strategy for boosting antitumor immune responses and suppressing FOXO3-mediated therapy resistance in cancer cells. However, no FOXO3 inhibitors are currently available for clinical use. Nevertheless, we have recently identified (4-propoxy)phenylpyrimidinylguanidine as a FOXO3 inhibitor in cancer cells in the low micromolar range. Here, we report the synthesis and structure–activity relationship study of a small library of its derivatives, some of which inhibit FOXO3-induced gene transcription in cancer cells in a submicromolar range and are thus 1 order of magnitude more potent than their parent compound. By NMR and molecular docking, we showed that these compounds differ in their interactions with the DNA-binding domain of FOXO3. These results may provide a foundation for further optimizing (4-propoxy)phenylpyrimidinylguanidine and developing therapeutics for inhibiting the activity of forkhead box (FOX) transcription factors and their interactions with other binding partners.
