Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of N-(Anthracen-9-ylmethyl)triamines as Molecular Recognition Elements for the Polyamine Transporter

Abstract: An efficient modular synthesis of N(1)-substituted triamines containing different tether lengths between nitrogen centers was developed. A series of N(1)-(9-anthracenylmethyl)triamines were evaluated for biological activity in L1210 (murine leukemia), alpha-difluoromethylornithine (DFMO)-treated L1210, Chinese hamster ovary (CHO), and CHO-MG cell lines. All triamines 8 had increased potency in DFMO-treated L1210 cells. The 4,4- and 5,4-triamine systems had the highest affinity for the polyamine transporter (PA… Show more

“…The ability of F14512 and etoposide to compete with [ 14 C]spermidine uptake was determined in L1210 cells in vitro according a procedure previously described (27). K i values for inhibition of spermidine uptake were determined using the Cheng Prussoff equation from the IC 50 values derived by iterative curve fitting of the sigmoidal equation describing the velocity of spermidine uptake of the respective competitor.…”

“…CHO-MG cells, selected for its resistance to the antitumor agent methylglyoxalbis(guanylhydrazone), a cytotoxic analogue of spermidine which is substrate of the PTS, are deficient in polyamine uptake (26). These cells have been routinely used to define the molecular requirements for the selective delivery of polyamine conjugates into cells containing active polyamine transporters (27,39). Comparison of drug cytotoxicity in these two cell lines provided an important screen to detect cell entry via the PTS.…”

“…Previous efforts revealed that the non-native triamine, homospermidine, showed a better PAT recognition than natural polyamines. A leading conjugate, anthracenylmethyl homospermidine (ANTMHspd), was found to display an excellent PAT selectivity and strong inhibitory effects on several tumor cell lines [6] . Many reports revealed that alkyl polyamine analogues exhibited cytotoxicity via apoptosis [7,8] , however, the antiproliferative mechanism of the homospermidine conjugates has not been elucidated until now.…”

“…The anthracene-polyamine conjugates N1-anthracen-9-ylmethyl-butane-1,4-diamine [Ant-(butanediamine)]; N- (4-aminobutyl)-N-anthracen-9-ylmethylbutane-1,4-diamine [Ant- (4,4)]; N- [4-(4-aminobutylamino) butyl]-N-anthracen-9-ylmethylbutane-1,4-diamine [Ant- (4,4,4)]; N-(4-amino-butyl)-NЈ-(10-{[4-(4-amino-butylamino)butylamino]-methyl}anthracen-9-ylmethyl) butane-1,4-diamine (44-Ant-44); and benzene-polyamine conjugate N-(4-amino- were synthesized and characterized as previously described (21,(43)(44)(45). Their structures are shown in Fig.…”
