Abstract

A successful structure-based design of a class of non-peptide small-molecule MDM2 inhibitors targeting the p53-MDM2 protein-protein interaction is reported. The most potent compound 1d binds to MDM2 protein with a Ki value of 86 nM and is 18 times more potent than a natural p53 peptide (residues 16-27). Compound 1d is potent in inhibition of cell growth in LNCaP prostate cancer cells with wild-type p53 and shows only a weak activity in PC-3 prostate cancer cells with a deleted p53. Importantly, 1d has a minimal toxicity to normal prostate epithelial cells. Our studies provide a convincing example that structure-based strategy can be employed to design highly potent, non-peptide, cell-permeable, small-molecule inhibitors to target protein-protein interaction, which remains a very challenging area in chemical biology and drug design.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
