Inhibition of human tumor-associated isozymes IX and cytosolic isozymes I and II with some 1,3,4-oxadiazole-thiols.. A series of chiral 1,3,4-oxadiazole-5-thiols incorporating 2-substituted-benzenesulfonamide moieties has been prepared from amino acids, via the ester and carbohydrazide intermediate, followed by cyclization with carbon disulfide. Some of these compounds have been investigated for the inhibition of three physiologically relevant carbonic anhydrase (CA, EC 4.2.1.1) isoforms, the human cytosolic hCA I and II, and the human, transmembrane, tumor-associated isozyme hCA IX. All these compounds showed weak (millimolar) affinity for the three isozymes, except two carbohydrazides and two heterocyclic thiols which selectively inhibited the tumor-associated isozyme with inhibition constants around 10 microM. Such compounds constitute interesting lead molecules for the possible design of CA IX-selective inhibitors. |
