Definitions
- the present invention generally relates to novel compounds, including phenolic analogues and derivatives thereof, which have anti-proliferative and/or apoptotic activities.
- the present invention also relates to the , use of such compounds in the treatment of conditions in which cells proliferate abnormally and/or show resistance to apoptosis.
- the rate of cell proliferation within a population of cells often depends on three main factors: i) the rate of cell division; ii) the proportion of cells within the population undergoing cell division; and iii) the rate of cell loss from the population due to terminal differentiation or cell death.
- Physiological processes such as tissue development and homeostasis require a balance between cell proliferation and programmed cell death (apoptosis) .
- the role of apoptosis is to remove . harmful, damaged or unwanted cells.
- certain cells, such as tumor cells may develop resistance to apoptosis by adaptations that protect the cells from cell death induced by their abnormal physiological state.
- Bcl-2 B-cell lymphoma 2
- the proteins of Bcl-2 family are key regulators of apoptosis.
- the Bcl-2 family consists of several conserved sequence motif known as Bcl-2 homology (BH) domains.
- Bcl-2 family members are divided into three groups based on the presence of BH domains .
- a first subfamily which includes Bcl-2, Bcl-xl and Mcl-1, contains BH1, BH2, BH3 and BH4 multi-domains and possesses pro-survival (anti-apoptotic) activity.
- a second subfamily which includes Bax and Bak contains multi-BH domains and possesses pro-apoptotic activity.
- a third subfamily which includes Bad, Bik and Bid also exhibits pro-apoptotic activity and contains BH3 domains only.
- pro-survival proteins of the Bcl- 2 family such as Bcl-xL and Mcl-1 is implicated in tumorigenesis .
- the BH1, BH2 and BH3 domains of pro- survival or anti-apoptotic proteins e.g. Bcl-xL and Mcl- 1
- form a hydrophobic groove which is the docking site for the BH3 domain of pro-apoptotic proteins.
- Binding of the BH3 domain of Bak or Bax to the hydrophobic groove of the anti-apoptotic proteins can induce apoptotic effects.
- small molecules that inhibit the interaction of Bcl-xL/BH3 domain or Mcl-l/BH3 domain could potentially act as apoptosis modulators which will promote cell death in cancer cells or enhance tumour sensitivity to chemotherapy or radiotherapy.

- the active compounds of general formula (I) may be used in combination with other known treatments or anti- proliferative or apoptotic agents. Combinations of active agents, including the active compounds of the invention, may be synergistic.
- the active compounds of general formula (I) are capable of inducing apoptosis by inhibiting the functions of pro-survival proteins such as Bcl-xL and Mcl-1.
- the active compounds may therefore serve as molecular probes to understand the mechanism of cell survival and cell death in research and drug discovery in order to develop novel anti-cancer drugs. It has been found that compounds of the present invention may selectively target and inhibit one of Mcl-1 and Bcl-xL, or inhibit both Mcl-1 and Bcl-xL, and may be developed for use as molecular probes in biological assays.

- Preparative HPLC was performed on a Shimadzu - LC-8A HPLC system equipped with a CBM-20A PDA detector, Gilson 215 liquid handler and fraction collector using a X- Bridge Prep C 18 (30 mm I.D. x 50 mm, 5 ⁇ ) column.
- An isocratic elution with 20% CH 3 CN, 80% (0.1% formic acid/H 2 0) at a flow rate of 20.0 mL/min for 5 min was used.

- An isocratic elution with 20% H 2 0 and 80% CH 3 CN at a flow rate of 0.2 mL/min over 3 min was used.
- LC-MS data for JC051-JC057 was collected on a Shimadzu Prominence Series LCMS-IT-TOF instrument equipped with SPD-M20A PDA detector, LCMS-IT-TOF MS detector and LC-20AD binary gradient pump using a Shimpack VP-ODS (2.0. mm I.D. x 250 mm) column.
- Mobile phase is 0.1% formic acid in CH 3 CN and 0.1% formic acid in H 2 0.
- a gradient elution was set at 0. min 20% acetonitrile, 13 min 100% acetonitrile, 14 min 100% acetonitrile, 15 min 20% acetonitrile and stop time 16 min.
- the compounds of formula (I) can be prepared in high purity ranging from about 71% up to >99% purity.
- Recombinant GST (glutathio S-transferase) fusion proteins of GST-Bcl-xL and GST-Mcl-1 were expressed in E. coli BL21.
- the purification of GST fusion proteins was carried out with glutathione sepharose beads and eluted with glutathione elution buffer. Fluorescence labelled peptide of Bak BH3 domain was synthesized by Mimotopes (Australia) .
- FP assay measures the molecular movement and rotation of the fluorescence labelled Bak BH3 peptide (fluo-Bak BH3) .
- fluo-Bak BH3 fluorescence labelled Bak BH3 peptide
- free rotation of fluo-Bak BH3 is significantly induced due to its binding with Bcl-xL or Mcl-1 proteins.
- excitation of fluorescein with polarized light results in a high polarized readout (reading of negative control indicating high polarization).
- Bcl-xL or Mcl-1 was prepared at a concentration of 0.125 tg/ L with 50 mM Tris buffer (pH 8.0).
- Fluo-Bak BH3 was prepared at a concentration of 100 nM with 50 mM Tris buffer (pH 8.0).
- the FP assay was conducted on 96-well plate.

- the cell viability assays were conducted with HepG2 cell line (human hepatocellular carcinoma, with deposit number ATCC HB-8065) .
- the assay uses the indicator dye resazurin to measure the metabolic capacity of cells. Viable cells retain the ability to reduce resazurin into resorufin, which is highly fluorescent. Conversely, non- viable cells rapidly lose metabolic capacity, and therefore are not able to reduce the indicator dye and generate a fluorescent signal.
- the assay procedure included adding 100 /L of 10 5 /mL HepG2 cells into a 96 -well plate. The cells were incubated at 37°C overnight, after which 10 ⁇ L/well sample was added on the following day.
- sample/cell mixture was incubated for 24 hrs at 37°C. This was followed by adding 20 ⁇ ,% ⁇ 11 of 200 /g/mL resazurin. The mixture was incubated at 37°C for 4 hrs. The plate was then read at an excitation wavelength of 535. nm with Tecan Infinite 200.
- Example 3 Apoptosis Inducing and Cytotoxic Properties of Phenolic Compounds Table 2. Apoptosis Inducing and Cytotoxicity Properties of Phenolic Compounds
- the compounds also exhibited low cytotoxic effects on the human cancer cell line HepG2.
- the comparative data in Table 3 demonstrate that the presence of a hydroxyl moiety at carbon-2 and carbon- 5 positions of the phenyl group of the compounds of formula (I) is advantageous for inhibiting the Bcl-xL and Mcl-1 proteins.
- JC025, JC028 and JC030 exhibit significantly more potent inhibitory activity on both pro-survival proteins than JC025' , JC028' and JC030' , respectively, which have only one hydroxyl group on the phenyl ring.
- phenolic analogues JC025, JC026, JC028, JC030, JC041 and JC053 to JC057 show inhibitory effects towards both Bcl-xL and Mcl-1 pro-survival proteins and have low cytotoxicity toward HepG2 cell line
- phenolic analogues JC051 and JC052 show selective inhibition towards Mcl-1 protein and also have low cytotoxicity toward HepG2 cell line.
- the phenolic analogues can selectively target and cause apoptosis of these cells without causing any anti-proliferative or apoptotic effect on normal (i.e. non-tumor and noncancerous) cells.
- the disclosed active compounds may be used as apoptotic/anti-proliferative agents in the manufacture of medicaments for treatment of conditions in which cells proliferate abnormally and/or show resistance to apoptosis.
- Exemplary proliferative conditions include, but are not limited to, pre-malignant and malignant cellular proliferation, such as malignant neoplasms, tumours (e.g. solid tumours), cancers, leukemia and infections (e.g. fungal infection, bacterial infection etc.), and the like.
- pre-malignant and malignant cellular proliferation such as malignant neoplasms, tumours (e.g. solid tumours), cancers, leukemia and infections (e.g. fungal infection, bacterial infection etc.), and the like.
- the surprising selective inhibition of Mcl-1 protein by phenolic analogues JC051 and JC052 also provide the compounds of the present invention with the ability to be used as a molecular probe in medical research to target a particular pro-survival protein and independently study the mechanism or pathway of inhibition of such a protein.
- Mcl-1 has emerged as a major resistance factor in human cancer. Inhibition of Mcl-1 by small organic molecules, such as the active phenolic analogues of the present invention, will prove to be a valuable strategy in circumventing the chemoresistance of cancer cells. Therefore, the active compounds of the present invention may be used in the manufacture of a medicament for the prevention and/or treatment of a condition associated with resistance to anti-cancer drugs.
