Thioureido N-acetyllactosamine derivatives as potent galectin-7 and 9N inhibitors

Salameh, Bader LU ; Sundin, Anders LU ; Leffler, Hakon LU and Nilsson, Ulf LU (2006) In Bioorganic & Medicinal Chemistry 14(4). p.1215-1220
Abstract
Derivatives of N-acetyllactosamine carrying structurally diverse thioureido groups at galactose C3 were prepared from a C3'-azido N-acetyllactosamine derivative in a three-step reaction sequence involving azide reduction and isothiocyanate formation by thiophosgene treatment of the C3-amine, followed by reaction of the isothiocyanate with a panel of amines. Evaluation of the N-acetyllactosamine thioureas as inhibitors against galectins-1, 3, 7, 8N (N-terminal domain), and 9N (N-terminal domain) revealed thiourea-mediated affinity enhancements for galectins-1, 3, 7, and 9N. In particular, good inhibitors were discovered against galectin-7 and 9N (K-d 23 and 47 mu M, respectively, for a 3-pyridylinethylthiourea derivative), which represents... (More)

In particular, good inhibitors were discovered against galectin-7 and 9N (K-d 23 and 47 mu M, respectively, for a 3-pyridylinethylthiourea derivative), which represents more than an order of magnitude affinity enhancement over the parent natural N-acetyllactosamine.
