Abstract:
:Twenty-five novel pregnenolone/2-cyanoacryloyl conjugates (6-30) were designed and prepared, with the aim of developing novel anticancer drugs with dual NF-κB inhibitory and anti-proliferative activities. Compounds 22 and 27-30 showed inhibition against TNF-α-induced NF-κB activation in luciferase assay, which was confirmed by Western blotting. Among them, compound 30 showed potent NF-κB inhibitory activity (IC50=2.5μM) and anti-proliferative against MCF-7, A549, H157, and HL-60 cell lines (IC50=6.5-36.2μM). The present study indicated that pregnenolone/2-cyanoacryloyl conjugate I can server asa novel scaffold for developing NF-κB inhibitors and anti-proliferative agents in cancer chemotherapy.
