Reversal of resistance against doxorubicin by a newly developed compound, oxalyl bis(N-phenyl)hydroxamic acid in vitro.

A drug-resistant cell line (EAC/Dox) was developed by repeated exposure of Ehrlich ascites carcinoma cells to Doxorubicin (Dox) in vivo in male albino Swiss mice (6-8 weeks old). The weekly i.p. injections of Dox to mice (2 or 4 mg/kg/week for 4 months) gave rise to Dox-resistant cell line EAC/Dox, which displayed typical multidrug resistant (MDR) features of cross-resistance to a number of structurally and functionally unrelated drugs like doxorubicin, vinblastine and cisplatin. Moreover, the EAC/Dox cell line had lower drug accumulation than drug-sensitive (EAC/S) cells. Study of Western blots and immunofluorescence revealed that P-glycoprotein 170 kDa (P-gp) was absent in EAC/Dox cells. The drug resistance appeared to be due to the presence of a higher level of reduced glutathione (GSH) and glutathione S-transferase (GST) in EAC/Dox cells than in drug-sensitive (EAC/S) cells. The two structurally similar hydroxamic acid derivatives, i.e. oxalyl bis(N-phenyl)hydroxamic acid (X1) and succinyl bis(N-phenyl)hydroxamic acid (X2), having very low in vitro toxicity (IC50 value 250 microg/ ml), were investigated for their efficacy to reverse MDR. The compound X1 was able to reverse the effect of MDR and reduce GST in EAC/Dox cells. The compound X2 had no ability to reverse the effect of MDR. Further study on the mechanism of glutathione depletion and the resistance modifying property of X1 on other cell lines is warranted.

Sorbic Hydroxamic Acid, an Antifungal Agent Effective over a Wide pH Range.

Sorbic hydroxamic acid was prepared from sorbic acid by esterification and treatment with hydroxylamine (mp 133 to 135 C, pK(a) 8.8). Its ultraviolet spectrum in acid solution had a single absorption maximum at 262 mmu; in alkaline solution the maximal absorption shifted to 255 mmu and significant absorption appeared at 280 to 300 mmu. At concentrations of 0.1% (w/v), sorbic hydroxamic acid prevented the growth of Aspergillus niger, Penicillium notatum, Botrytis cinerea, Cladosporium herbarum, and a Rhizopus species in grape juice over the pH range 3.6 to 9.2, although sorbic acid was not effective at pH 5.7 and above.

Identification and optimisation of a series of substituted 5-pyridin-2-yl-thiophene-2-hydroxamic acids as potent histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors.

Further investigation of a series of thienyl-based hydroxamic acids that included ADS100380 and ADS102550 led to the identification of the 5-pyridin-2-yl-thiophene-2-hydroxamic acid 3c, which possessed modest HDAC inhibitory activity. Substitution at the 5- and 6-positions of the pyridyl ring of compound 3c provided compounds 5a-g, 7a, b, 9, and 13a. Compound 5b demonstrated improved potency, in vitro DMPK profile, and rat oral bioavailability, compared to ADS102550. Functionalisation of the pendent phenyl group of compounds 5b, 5e and 13a provided analogues that possessed excellent enzyme inhibition and anti-proliferative activity.

Antimicrobial activity of N-phthaloylamino acid hydroxamates.

Antibacterial and antifungal activity of N-phthaloylamino acid hydroxamates [C6H4(CO)2N-X-CONHOH, X=amino acid residues of glycine, beta-alanine or D-phenylglycine], was examined against 44 strains of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, and 10 species of yeasts. The level of antimicrobial activity was established using the in vitro agar assay and the standard broth dilution susceptibility test. N-phthaloyl-D-phenylglycine-hydroxa- mic acid , the substance with the highest lipophilicity (log P), showed the best antibacterial activity, especially against Gram-negative bacteria. Minimum inhibitory concentration of was 0.008 mg mL-1 in the activity against Yersinia enterocolitica O3, confirmed by a large inhibition zone (30 mm) by the diffusion test. Hydroxamates inhibit growth by chelation of the PDF enzyme metal in both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, and LpxC enzyme in Gram-negative enzyme. Phthalimides appear to contribute to inhibition by destabilizing m-RNA. Antifungal activity of substances is not very expressed.

Regio- and stereochemically controlled formation of hydroxamic acid containing anti- or syn-1,4-cycloalkenols from acylnitroso-derived Diels-Alder adducts.

Treatment of acylnitroso hetero Diels-Alder cycloadducts 2 with iron(III) or copper(II) in an alcohol solvent induces ring opening to afford predominantly monocyclic anti-1,4-hydroxamic acids 3. However, treatment of cycloadducts 2 with copper(II) in toluene reverses the stereoselectivity of the ring opening to afford syn-1,4-hydroxamic acids 4. These regio- and stereoselective processes separately provide anti-1,4- and syn-1,4-disubstituted cyclopentenes while regenerating a hydroxamic acid moiety, thus enhancing the chemical versatility of the Diels-Alder cycloadducts.

Study on hydroxamic acids and their urease inhibitory potency by quantum chemistry calculation.

The electronic structures of 34 hydroxamic acids [R-(CONHCH2(n-CONHOH, R = aromatic or aliphatic, n = 1 or 0] were calculated by the INDO method and their urease inhibitory potencies were discussed in terms of the calculated electronic parameters and molar refraction. The charge distribution of -CONHOH residue which has been expected as a functional group for inhibition slightly be affected by the change of R - moiety and by the presence or absence of the -CONHCH2- residue. The best improved regression equation indicated that the inhibitory potency of hydroxamic acids was parabolically varied with the molar refraction and that the increase of the inhibitory potency by the presence of -CONHCH2- residue was explained by the variation of the charge density of a carbon atom directly bonding the -CONHOH group.

Removal of fluoride ion from aqueous solution by a cerium-poly(hydroxamic acid) resin complex.

A cerium-loaded poly(hydroxamic acid) chelating ion exchanger was used for fluoride ion removal from aqueous solution. The resin was effective in decreasing the fluoride concentration from 5 mM down to 0.001 mM in acidic pH between 3 and 6. The sorption followed a Langmuir model with a maximum capacity of 0.5 mmol/g. The removal is accomplished by an anion exchange mechanism. The rate constant for the sorption was found to be 9.6 x 10(-2) min-1. A column test shows that the fluoride ion was retained on the column until breakthrough point and the fluoride sorbed in the column can be eluted with 0.1 M NaOH. The column can be reused after being condition with hydrochloric acid at pH 4. The resin was tested and found to be effective for removal of fluoride from actual industrial wastewater.

Peptide hydroxamic acids inhibit skin collagenase.

A number of peptide hydroxamic acids have been synthesized and have been shown to be inhibitors of human skin collagenase. One of these, Z-Pro-Leu-Gly-NHOH, has an IC50 value of 4 X 10(-5)M. Corresponding peptides with different C-terminal functional groups, such as amide, carboxylate and aldehyde, showed little or no inhibition, indicating the importance of the hydroxamate functional group. In addition, the peptide sequence of this effective inhibitor corresponds closely to that of the cleavage site of native collagen, the substrate for the enzyme. Thus, substrate analogs incorporating a suitable metal coordinating group serve as potential inhibitors of human collagenase.

A new group of antibiotics, hydroxamic acid antimycotic antibiotics. II. The structure of neoenactins NL1 and NL2 and structure-activity relationship.

The structures of neoenactins (NEs) NL1 and NL2, novel antimycotic antibiotics produced by Streptoverticillium olivoreticuli in a precursor-oriented fashion, were elucidated by 1H and 13C NMR and mass spectroscopic studies. The structures of both antibiotics are closely related to that of NE-A, the major component of NE congeners, being classified in the group of hydroxamic acid antimycotic antibiotics in which L-serine and a diketo amine form a hydroxamic acid structure. To study the role of the carbonyl groups in the biological activities of the hydroxamic acid antimycotic antibiotics, NE-A was modified by reaction with various carbonyl reagents. In terms of antimycotic activity, the derivatives are classified into two distinct groups; the first ones are fairly comparable to but not exceeding and the second ones are less active than NE-A depending on their tendency to revert to NE-A by hydrolysis. In general, the biological activities of the derivatives are inversely proportional to their stabilities to hydrolysis.

Molecular characterization and chromosomal localization of cytochrome P450 genes involved in the biosynthesis of cyclic hydroxamic acids in hexaploid wheat.

The cyclic hydroxamic acids, 2,4-dihydroxy-1,4-benzoxazin-3-one (DIBOA) and 2,4-dihydroxy-7-methoxy-1,4-benzoxazin-3-one (DIMBOA), are defensive secondary metabolites found in gramineous plants including wheat, maize and rye. cDNAs for five cytochromes P450 (P450s) involved in DIBOA biosynthesis (CYP71C6, CYP71C7v2, CYP71C8v2, CYP71C9v1 and CYP71C9v2) were isolated from seedlings of hexaploid wheat [( Triticum aestivum L. cv. Chinese Spring (2n=6x=42, genomes AABBDD)] by RT-PCR and screening of a cDNA library. CYP71C9v1 and CYP71C9v2 are 97% identical to each other in amino acid and nucleotide sequences. The cloned P450 species showed 76-79% identity at the amino acid level to the corresponding maize P450 species CYP71C1-C4, which are also required for DIBOA biosynthesis. The wheat P450 cDNAs were heterologously expressed in the yeast ( Saccharomyces cerevisiae) strain AH22. Microsome fractions from yeast cells expressing these P450 species catalyzed the same reactions as their maize orthologs. The chromosomes carrying the cyp71C6- C9v1 orthologs were identified by Southern hybridization using aneuploid lines of Chinese Spring wheat. The cyp71C9v1 orthologs were located on the chromosomes of wheat homoeologous group-4. The orthologs of the other P450 genes, cyp71C7v2, cyp71C6 and cyp71C8v2, were located on group-5 chromosomes. The same P450 genes were also present in the three ancestral diploid species of hexaploid wheat, T. monococcum (AA), Aegilops speltoides [BB (approximately SS)] and Ae. squarrosa (DD).

Inhibition of matrix metalloproteinases by peptidyl hydroxamic acids.

Synthetic inhibitors of interstitial collagenase, tri- and tetrapeptidyl hydroxamic acids, have been developed and tested for their inhibitory activities against human matrix metalloproteinases. A water soluble inhibitor, p-NH2-Bz-Gly-Pro-D-Leu-D-Ala-NHOH (FN-439) inhibited interstitial and granulocyte collagenases, granulocyte gelatinase and skin fibroblast stromelysin with IC50 of 1 x 10(-6) M, 3.0 x 10(-5) M and 1.5 x 10(-4), respectively, but not thermolysin and serine proteinases. FN-439 was found to retain its inhibitory activity against matrix metalloproteinases even after prolonged incubation with pronase or human granulocyte elastase, indicating a favorite candidate of the inhibitor to modulate metalloproteinase activities in vivo.

[Quantum-chemical studies on the mechanisms of inhibition of ribonucleotide reductase by aryl hydroxamic acids].

By using the quantum-chemical CNDO/2 method, the mechanism of inhibition of ribonucleotide reductase by aryl hydroxamic acids has been studied. It is ascertained that the mechanism of inhibition is metal chelation. Furthermore, a new metal chelation mechanism for aryl hydroxamic acids is suggested that not only could the--CONHOH moiety chelate metal ion in ribonucleotide reductase to form uniposition chelation, but also the two adjacent hydroxyl or amino groups on benzene ring could chelate metal ion to form biposition chelation. This mechanism reasonably accounts for some experimental facts which can not be explained by the traditional metal chelation mechanism.

Bis-substituted malonic acid hydroxamate derivatives as inhibitors of human neutrophil collagenase (MMP8).

Malonic acid hydroxamate derivatives bis-substituted at the methylene group were synthesized as potential nonpeptidic inhibitors of human neutrophil collagenase (MMP8). The presence of an aromatic residue both at the C2 malonic acid position and in the C-terminal tail for hydrophobic interactions with the surface-exposed S1 binding site and the S1' pocket of the enzyme, respectively, was found to be sufficient for submicromolar inhibition potencies. For optimal insertion of the aryl amide group into the hydrophobic S1' pocket, spacing of the C-terminal phenyl group by at least a 3C-chain was required. In view of these results the achiral indan-2, 2-dicarboxylic acid was used to mimic the 2-benzyl-2-methylmalonic acid residue, and its derivatization to the 3-phenylpropyl amide hydroxamate produced a potent, achiral, low-mass inhibitor of MMP8 (Ki = 0.3 microM), the binding mode of which was unambiguously determined by X-ray crystallographic analysis.

Aromatic hydroxamic acids and hydrazides as inhibitors of the peroxidase activity of prostaglandin H2 synthase-2.

The cyclooxygenase activity of the bifunctional enzyme prostaglandin H(2) synthase-2 (PGHS-2) is the target of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. Inhibition of the peroxidase activity of PGHS has been less studied. Using Soret absorption changes, the binding of aromatic hydroxamic acids to the peroxidase site of PGHS-2 was examined to investigate the structural determinants of inhibition. Typical of mammalian peroxidases, the K(d) for benzhydroxamic acid (42mM) is much greater than that for salicylhydroxamic acid (475microM). Binding of the hydroxamic acid tepoxalin (25microM) resulted in only minor Soret changes. However, tepoxalin is an efficient reducing cosubstrate, indicating that it is an alternative electron donor rather than an inhibitor of the peroxidase activity. Aromatic hydrazides are metabolically activated inhibitors of peroxidases. 2-Naphthoichydrazide (2-NZH) caused the time- and concentration-dependent inhibition of both PGHS-2 peroxidase and cyclooxygenase activities. H(2)O(2) was required for the inactivation of both PGHS-2 activities and indomethacin (which binds at the cyclooxygenase site) did not affect the peroxidase inhibitory potency of 2-NZH. A series of aromatic hydrazides were found to be potent inhibitors of PGHS-2 peroxidase activity with IC(50) values in the 6-100microM range for 13 of the 18 hydrazides examined. Selective inhibition of PGHS-2 over myeloperoxidase and horseradish peroxidase isozyme C was increased by certain ring substitutions. In particular, a chloro group para to the hydrazide moiety increased the PGHS-2 selectivity relative to both myeloperoxidase and horseradish peroxidase isozyme C.

Arylhydroxamic acid bioactivation via acyl group transfer. Structural requirements for transacylating and electrophile-generating activity of N-(2-fluorenyl)hydroxamic acids and related compounds.

The synthesis of a series of 12 N-(2-fluorenyl)hydroxamic acids, N-(2-fluorenyl)-N-hydroxyureas, and N-(2-fluorenyl)-N-hydroxycarbamates is reported. The compounds were evaluated for their ability to serve as substrates for a partially purified hamster hepatic arylhydroxamic acid N,O-acyltransferase preparation. Transacylating activity was measured spectrophotometrically with 4-aminoazobenzene as the acyl group acceptor, and electrophile-generating activity was quantified by the N-acetylmethionine trapping assay. Only the N-acetyl, N-propionyl, and N-methoxyacetyl derivatives exhibited relatively high levels of activity as measured by either of the assay methods. These results are generally consistent with previously reported conclusions regarding the steric and electronic characteristics of acyl groups that are required for activation by this enzyme system. N,O-Acyltransferase inactivation by N-hydroxy-2-acetamidofluorene depressed the bioactivation of the N-acetyl compound to a greater extent than either the N-propionyl or N-methyloxyacetyl derivative.

NMR solution structure of the catalytic fragment of human fibroblast collagenase complexed with a sulfonamide derivative of a hydroxamic acid compound.

The solution structure of the catalytic fragment of human fibroblast collagenase (MMP-1) complexed with a sulfonamide derivative of a hydroxamic acid compound (CGS-27023A) has been determined using two-dimensional and three-dimensional heteronuclear NMR spectroscopy. The solution structure of the complex was calculated by means of hybrid distance geometry-simulated annealing using a combination of experimental NMR restraints obtained from the previous refinement of the inhibitor-free MMP-1 (1) and recent restraints for the MMP-1:CGS-27023A complex. The hydroxamic acid moiety of CGS-27023A was found to chelate to the "right" of the catalytic zinc where the p-methoxyphenyl sits in the S1' active-site pocket, the isopropyl group is in contact with H83 and N80, and the pyridine ring is solvent exposed. The sulfonyl oxygens are in hydrogen-bonding distance to the backbone NHs of L81 and A82. This is similar to the conformation determined by NMR of the inhibitor bound to stromelysin (2, 3). A total of 48 distance restraints were observed between MMP-1 and CGS-27023A from 3D 13C-edited/12C-filtered NOESY and 3D 15N-edited NOESY experiments. An additional 18 intramolecular restraints were observed for CGS-27023A from a 2D 12C-filtered NOESY experiment. A minimal set of NMR experiments in combination with the free MMP-1 assignments were used to assign the MMP-1 (1)H, 13C, and 15N resonances in the MMP-1:CGS-27023A complex. The assignments of CGS-27023A in the complex were obtained from 2D 12C-filtered NOESY and 2D 12C-filtered TOCSY experiments.

Thermodynamic analysis of the binding of aromatic hydroxamic acid analogues to ferric horseradish peroxidase.

Peroxidases typically bind their reducing substrates weakly, with K(d) values in the millimolar range. The binding of benzhydroxamic acid (BHA) to ferric horseradish peroxidase isoenzyme C (HRPC) [K(d) = 2.4 microM; Schonbaum, G. R. (1973) J. Biol. Chem. 248, 502-511] is a notable exception and has provided a useful tool for probing the environment of the peroxidase aromatic-donor-binding site and the distal heme cavity. Knowledge of the underlying thermodynamic driving forces is key to understanding the roles of the various H-bonding and hydrophobic interactions in substrate binding. The isothermal titration calorimetry results of this study on the binding of aromatic hydroxamic acid analogues to ferric HRPC under nonturnover conditions (no H(2)O(2) present) confirm the significance of H-bonding interactions in the distal heme cavity in complex stabilization. For example, the binding of BHA to HRPC is enthalpically driven at pH 7.0, with the H-bond to the distal Arg38 providing the largest contribution (6.74 kcal/mol) to the binding energy. The overall relatively weak binding of the hydroxamic acid analogues to HRPC is due to large entropic barriers (-11.3 to -37.9 eu) around neutral pH, with the distal Arg38 acting as an "entropic gate keeper". Dramatic enthalpy-entropy compensation is observed for BHA and 2-naphthohydroxamic acid binding to HRPC at pH 4.0. The enthalpic loss and entropic gain are likely due to increased flexibility of Arg38 in the complexes at low pH and greater access by water to the active site. Since the Soret absorption band of HRPC is a sensitive probe of the binding of hydroxamic acids and their analogues, it was used to investigate the binding of six donor substrates over the pH range of 4-12. The negligible pH dependence of the K(d) values corrected for substrate ionization suggests that enthalpy-entropy compensation is operative over a wide pH range. Examination of the thermodynamics of binding of ring-substituted hyrazides to HRPC reveals that the binding affinities of aromatic donors are highly sensitive to the position and nature of the ring substituent.
