Discovery of novel nonpeptide small-molecule NRP1 antagonists: Virtual screening, molecular simulation and structural modification.

Abstract:

:Multifaceted roles of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-neuropilin-1 (NRP1) interaction have been implicated in cancer, but reports on small-molecule inhibitors of VEGF-NRP1 interaction are scarce. Herein, we describe the identification of 1, a novel nonpeptide small-molecule NRP1 antagonist with moderate activity via structure-based virtual screening. Ensemble docking and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of 1 were carried out and an interesting binding model was obtained. We found that the "aromatic box" enclosed by Tyr297, Trp301 and Tyr353 of NRP1 is critical for NRP1-1 binding. Further structure modification of 1 based on the binding model derived from MD simulations resulted in the identification of 12a with significantly improved activity.
