In patients’ tumor cells, there is great increase in activities of sialytransferases (ST). We tried to design and synthesize the more potent ST inhibitors by modifying the substructure of lithocholic acid (LA) and evaluating their structure-activity relationship. We had successfully discovered LA- cis-Diamminedichloroplatinum or LA-7-Nitro-2,1,3-benzoxadiazole (NBD) complexes were with enhancement of inhibitory property and cytotoxicity. The latter the most active compounds toward ST with their IC50 value of at nM range. In MDA-MA-231 cell line, LA-NBD complexes 20μM display 35% inhibition of cell growth. Furthermore, the data indicated that both ST inhibitors significantly decreased the migration ability of MDA-MA-231 cells. The results are promising for coming testing in animal study and the inhibitors might be the potential drug candidates in the future. Part II： Overexpression of human gutathione S-transferases (hGSTs) causes tumor cells resistance to chemotherapeutic drugs. Therefore, finding a potential hGSTs inhibitor, GSH conjugate analogues which are resistant toγ-gutamyltranspeptidases (γ-GT)-mediated breakdown, can enhance the cytotoxicity of the anticancer drugs. We design a new type of hGSTs inhibitor with lithocholic acid moiety which is stable toward γ-GT and highly selective to GSTA2. Furthermore, the co-use of inhibitor increases the property of cytotoxicity of low dosage anti-cancer agents against MDA-MA-231 cell line.
