Popis: | The synthesis of new agelastatin alkaloid derivatives and their anticancer evaluation in the context of the breast cancer microenvironment is described. A variety of N1-alkyl and C5-ether agelastatin derivatives were accessed via application of our strategy for convergent imidazolone synthesis from a common thioester along with appropriately substituted urea and alcohol components. These agelastatin derivatives were evaluated in our three-dimensional co-culture assay for the effects of mammary fibroblasts on associated breast cancer cells. We have discovered that agelastatin alkaloids are potent modulators for cancer invasion and metastasis at non-cytotoxic doses. Herein we discuss the increased potency of (−)-agelastatin E as compared to (−)-agelastatin A in this capacity, in addition to identification of new agelastatin derivatives with activity that is statistically equivalent to (−)-agelastatin E. The chemistry described in this report provides a platform for the rapid synthesis of agelastatin derivatives with excellent potency (50–100 nM) as modulators for cancer invasion and metastasis. |
