Colucci, Marie A. published the artcileSynthesis and Evaluation of 3-Aryloxymethyl-1,2-dimethylindole-4,7-diones as Mechanism-Based Inhibitors of NAD(P)H:Quinone Oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1) Activity, HPLC of Formula: 192820-78-3, the publication is Journal of Medicinal Chemistry (2007), 50(23), 5780-5789, database is CAplus and MEDLINE.

NAD(P)H:quinone oxidoreductase 1 is a proposed target in pancreatic cancer. The synthesis of a series of indolequinones, e.g., I (H, NO₂, NH₂, CN, CF₃ or F), based on the 5- and 6-methoxy-1,2-dimethylindole-4,7-dione chromophores with a range of phenolic leaving groups at the (indol-3-yl)methyl position, is described. The ability of these indolequinones to function as mechanism-based inhibitors of purified recombinant human NQO1 was evaluated, as was their ability to inhibit both NQO1 and cell growth in human pancreatic MIA PaCa-2 tumor cells. The inhibition of rhNQO1 was related to the pK_a of the leaving group: compounds with poorer phenolic leaving groups were poor inhibitors whereas those with more acidic leaving groups were more efficient inhibitors. These inhibition data also correlated with the inhibition NQO1 in MIA PaCa-2 cells. However, the data demonstrated that NQO1 inhibition did not correlate with growth inhibitory activity, at least in the MIA PaCa-2 cell line, suggesting that targets in addition to NQO1 need to be considered to explain the potent growth inhibitory activity of this series of indolequinones in human pancreatic cancer cells.

Bian, Jinlei published the artcileDiscovery of NAD(P)H:quinone oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1) inhibitors with novel chemical scaffolds by shape-based virtual screening combined with cascade docking, Quality Control of 192820-78-3, the publication is RSC Advances (2015), 5(61), 49471-49479, database is CAplus.

A number of novel NAD(P)H:quinone oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1) inhibitors were discovered from the ChemDiv database via a simple protocol. Based on two reference NQO1 inhibitors, dicoumarol (DIC) and ES936, a shape-based similarity search and cascade docking filtering were conducted to identify new NQO1 inhibitors. Using these techniques, 43 compounds were selected, ordered, and tested. Among them, 7 compounds with novel chem. scaffolds were confirmed to be active by in vitro assays. Determination of the ability for protecting against NQO1-mediated toxicity of β-lapachone (β-lap) confirmed that compounds 8, 10 and 13 may be pharmacol. useful for probing the function of NQO1 in cells.

Li, Jason Z. published the artcileMechanistic studies of cancer cell mitochondria- and NQO1-mediated redox activation of beta-lapachone, a potentially novel anticancer agent, COA of Formula: C18H16N2O6, the publication is Toxicology and Applied Pharmacology (2014), 281(3), 285-293, database is CAplus and MEDLINE.

Beta-lapachone (beta-Lp) derived from the Lapacho tree is a potentially novel anticancer agent currently under clin. trials. Previous studies suggested that redox activation of beta-Lp catalyzed by NAD(P)H:quinone oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1) accounted for its killing of cancer cells. However, the exact mechanisms of this effect remain largely unknown. Using chemiluminescence and ESR (EPR) spin-trapping techniques, this study for the first time demonstrated the real-time formation of ROS in the redox activation of beta-lapachone from cancer cells mediated by mitochondria and NQO1 in melanoma B16-F10 and hepatocellular carcinoma HepG2 cancer cells. ES936, a highly selective NQO1 inhibitor, and rotenone, a selective inhibitor of mitochondrial electron transport chain (METC) complex I were found to significantly block beta-Lp meditated redox activation in B16-F10 cells. In HepG2 cells ES936 inhibited beta-Lp-mediated oxygen radical formation by ∼ 80% while rotenone exerted no significant effect. These results revealed the differential contribution of METC and NQO1 to beta-lapachone-induced ROS formation and cancer cell killing. In melanoma B16-F10 cells that do not express high NQO1 activity, both NOQ1 and METC play a critical role in beta-Lp redox activation. In contrast, in hepatocellular carcinoma HepG2 cells expressing extremely high NQO1 activity, redox activation of beta-Lp is primarily mediated by NQO1 (METC plays a minor role). These findings will contribute to our understanding of how cancer cells are selectively killed by beta-lapachone and increase our ability to devise strategies to enhance the anticancer efficacy of this potentially novel drug while minimizing its possible adverse effects on normal cells.
