Abstract
OBJECTIVE To design and synthesize novel α-naphthylthiol amino acid ester lysine specific demethylase 1(LSD1)inhibitors,evaluate their inhibitory activity with selectivity against LSD1,and explore their binding mechanism through molecular docking and dynamics simulation.METHODS Based on the binding mode of hit compound 3a with LSD1,the α-naphthyl mercapto amino acid ethyl ester small molecule compound were designed by fixing the planar hydrophobic naphthyl ring in the structure,while introducing hydrophilic amino fragment,and they were prepared through a multi-component one-pot cascade reaction.All the compounds were evaluated for their inhibitory activity against LSD1 at concentrations of 5.0 and 1.0 μmol·L-1 using the LSD1 screening platform of research group.The most potent compound was tested for its IC50 value and enzyme selectivity over MAO-A and MAO-B,and its binding mode was investigated through molecular docking and dynamics simulation.RESULTS A total of 13 compounds were obtained,all of which exhibited significant inhibitory effects on LSD1.Among them,nine compounds showed an inhibitory rate of over 50.0％ against LSD1 at a concentration of 1.0 μmol·L-1,while compound 3l displaying the best activity with an IC50 value of 0.17 μmol·L-1,174 times higher than the positive control.It also showed excellent selectivity towards MAO-A and MAO-B.Molecular docking and dynamics simulations indicated that compound 3l inhibited the activity of LSD1 through multiple interactions.CONCLUSION The structures of α-naphthylthiol amino acid ester can serve as lead compounds or active fragments,laying a solid foundation for the subsequent design of LSD1 inhibitors based on structure-oriented drug design.
