    Evaluation of the time-dependent antiproliferative activity and liver microsome stability of 3 phenyl 4-(2-oxo-3-alkylimidazolidin-1-yl)benzenesulfonates as promising CYP1A1-dependent antimicrotubule prodrugs

    Objectives In this study, the antiproliferative activity of 3 phenyl 4-(2-oxo-3-alkylimidazolidin-1-yl)benzenesulfonates (PAIB-SOs) was assessed in a time-dependent manner together with their hepatic stability and metabolism using human, mouse and rat liver microsomes. Methods CEU-818, -820 and -913 were selected as promising hit compounds. Their antiproliferative activity on human breast carcinoma MCF-7 cells was evaluated using escalating concentrations of drugs at 24, 36 and 48 h and the sulforhodamine B assay. Their hepatic stability was evaluated by HPLC-UV of extracts obtained from human, mouse and rat liver microsomes. Key findings The antiproliferative activity of PAIB-SOs is concentration and time-dependent and requires between 24 and 36 h of contact with MCF-7 cells to detect a significant antiproliferative activity. PAIB-SOs stability in microsomes usually decreases following this order: human ≈ (rat > mouse). The CEU-913 exhibits the longest half-life in rat and human liver microsomes while the CEU-820 exhibits the longest half-life in mouse liver microsomes. Conclusions Our in vitro results suggest that PAIB-SOs should have a minimum contact time of 24 h with the tumour to trigger significant antitumoural activity. The activity of mouse liver microsomes towards PAIB-SOs is higher than rat microsomes and tends to be higher than human liver microsomes.

    4-(3-Alkyl-2-oxoimidazolidin-1-yl)-N-phenylbenzenesulfonamides as new antimitotic prodrugs activated by cytochrome P450 1A1 in breast cancer cells
    (Elsevier, 2018-09-04) Chavez Alvarez, Atziri Corin; Zarifi Khosroshahi, Mitra; Fortin, Sébastien; Côté, Marie-France; Gagné-Boulet, Mathieu
    The role and the importance of the sulfonate moiety in phenyl 4-(2-oxo-3-alkylimidazolidin-1-yl)benzenesulfonates (PAIB-SOs) were assessed using its bioisosteric sulfonamide equivalent leading to new cytochrome P450 1A1 (CYP1A1)-activated prodrugs designated as 4-(3-alkyl-2-oxoimidazolidin-1-yl)-N-phenylbenzenesulfonamides (PAIB-SAs). PAIB-SAs are active in the submicromolar to low micromolar range showing selectivity toward CYP1A1-expressing MCF7 cells as compared to cells devoid of CYP1A1 activity such as MDA-MB-231 and HaCaT cells. The most potent, PAIB-SA 13, bearing a trimethoxyphenyl group on ring B blocks the cell cycle progression in G2/M phase, disrupts the microtubule dynamics and is biotransformed by CYP1A1 into CEU-638, its potent antimicrotuble counterpart. Structure-activity relationships related to PAIB-SOs and PAIB-SAs evidenced that PAIB-SOs and PAIB-SAs are true bioisosteric equivalents fully and selectively activatable by CYP1A-expressing cells into potent antimitotics.
