摘要
Steroid sulfatase (STS) is a potential target for treatment of postmenopausal hormone-dependent breast cancer. Several steroidal STS inhibitors have been reported, but steroidal compounds are difficult to optimize and may interact with other targets. On the other hand, we have shown that diphenylmethane (DPM) derivatives act as estrogen receptor (ER) agonists and antagonists. Here, we aimed to design and synthesize non-steroidal DPM-type STS inhibitors that would also serve as pro-estrogen antagonists, releasing a metabolite with ER alpha-antagonistic activity upon hydrolysis by STS. We synthesized a series of compounds and evaluated their biological activities by means of STS-inhibitory activity assay and ER reporter gene assay. Among them, silicon-containing compound 16a showed strong STS-inhibitory activity (IC50 = 0.17 mu M). Further, its putative metabolite (12a) exhibited potent ER alpha-antagonistic activity (IC50 = 29.7 nM). (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
