英文摘要Simple Summary: Chromosomal translocations involving the mixed lineage leukemia (MLL) gene generate potent fusion oncogenes and cause acute myeloid leukemia or lymphocytic leukemia, which account for similar to 75% infant and 5-10% child/adult acute leukemia cases with a poor prognosis (5-year survival rates < 45%). Protein-protein interactions between the most frequent MLL fusion partner proteins AF9/ENL and AF4 or histone methyltransferase DOT1L are critical to malignant gene expression and are therefore a potential drug target for cancer. Compound screening followed by medicinal chemistry studies identified several novel small-molecule inhibitors showing strong inhibition of these protein-protein interactions, significant suppression of characteristic gene expression, and robust cellular anticancer activities with negligible cytotoxicity. These compounds are useful chemical probes for biological studies of these protein-protein interactions, as well as pharmacological leads for further drug development against MLL-rearranged and other leukemias. Chromosomal translocations involving the mixed lineage leukemia (MLL) gene cause 5-10% acute leukemias with poor clinical outcomes. Protein-protein interactions (PPI) between the most frequent MLL fusion partner proteins AF9/ENL and AF4 or histone methyltransferase DOT1L are drug targets for MLL-rearranged (MLL-r) leukemia. Several benzothiophene-carboxamide compounds were identified as novel inhibitors of these PPIs with IC50 values as low as 1.6 mu M. Structure-activity relationship studies of 77 benzothiophene and related indole and benzofuran compounds show that a 4-piperidin-1-ylphenyl or 4-pyrrolidin-1-ylphenyl substituent is essential for the activity. The inhibitors suppressed expression of MLL target genes HoxA9, Meis1 and Myc, and selectively inhibited proliferation of MLL-r and other acute myeloid leukemia cells with EC50 values as low as 4.7 mu M. These inhibitors are useful chemical probes for biological studies of AF9/ENL, as well as pharmacological leads for further drug development against MLL-r and other leukemias.
