Abstract:
:A small molecule library of pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidine-2,4-dione derivatives 6-16 was synthesized from 6-amino-1,3-disubstituted uracils 18, characterized, and screened for inhibitory activity against eukaryotic elongation factor-2 kinase (eEF-2K). To understand the binding pocket of eEF-2K, structural modifications of the pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidine were made at three regions (R(1), R(2), and R(3)). A homology model of eEF-2K was created, and compound 6 (A-484954, Abbott laboratories) was docked in the catalytic domain of eEF-2K. Compounds 6 (IC50=420nM) and 9 (IC50=930nM) are found to be better molecules in this preliminary series of pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidine analogs. eEF-2K activity in MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells is significantly reduced by compound 6, to a lesser extent by compound 9, and is unaffected by compound 12. Similar inhibitory results are observed when eEF-2K activity is stimulated by 2-deoxy-d-glucose (2-DOG) treatment, suggesting that compounds 6 and 9 are able to inhibit AMPK-mediated activation of eEF-2K to a notable extent. The results of this work will shed light on the further design and optimization of novel pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidine analogs as eEF-2K inhibitors.
