- Steroid sulfatase inhibitors block the local production of estrogenic steroids and are attractive agents for the treatment of estrogen-dependent cancers. Inspiration of coumarin-based inhibitors, we synthesized thirty-two 5-oxa-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-2H-chromeno-(3,4-c)pyridin-8-yl sulfamates, focusing on the substitution derivatives on the adjacent phenyl ring and evaluated their abilities to block STS from human placenta and MCF-7 cells. SAR analysis revealed that the incorporation of chlorine at either meta and/or para position of the adjacent phenyl ring of the tricyclic skeleton enhanced STS inhibition. Di-substitutions at the adjacent phenyl ring were superior to mono and tri-substitutions. Further kinetic analysis of these compounds revealed that chloride-bearing compounds, such as 19m, 19v, and 19w, had KI of 0.02 to 0.11 nM and kinact/KI ratios of 8.8-17.5 nM-1min-1, a parameter indicated for the efficiency of irreversible inhibition. We also used the docking model to illustrate the difference in STS inhibitory potency of compounds. Finally, the safety and anti-cancer activity of selected compounds 19m, 19v, and 19w were also studied, showing the results of low cytotoxicity on NHDF cell line and being more potent than irosustat on ZR-75-1 cell, which was a hormone-dependent cancer cell line with high STS expression.

- Inhibition of steroid sulfatase (STS) decreases estrogen production and thus, suppresses tumor proliferation. Inspired by irosustat, the first STS inhibitor in clinical trials, we explored twenty-one tricyclic and tetra-heterocyclic coumarin–based derivatives. Their STS enzyme kinetic parameters, docking models, and cytotoxicity toward breast cancer and normal cells were evaluated. Tricyclic derivative 9e and tetracyclic derivative 10c were the most promising irreversible inhibitors developed in this study, with KI of 0.05 and 0.4 nM, and kinact/KI ratios of 28.6 and 19.1 nM−1min−1 on human placenta STS, respectively.

- The electronic structures of Nd1-xYxMnO3 (x=0-0.5) were studied using X-ray absorption near-edge structure (XANES) at the Mn L-3,L-2- and O K-edge along with valence-band photoemission spectroscopy (VB-PES). The systematic increase in white-line intensity of the Mn L-3,L-2-edge with doping, suggests a decrease in the occupancy of Mn 3d orbitals. The O K-edge XANES shows a depletion of unoccupied states above the Fermi energy. The changes in the O K-edge spectra due to doping reflects an increase in the Jahn-Teller distortion. The VB-PES shows broadening of the features associated with Mn 3d and O 2p hybridized states and the shift of these features to a slightly higher binding energy in agreement with our GGA + U calculations. The system shows a net shift of the occupied and unoccupied states away from the Fermi energy with doping. The shift in theoretical site-projected density of states of x=0.5 composition with respect to x=0 suggest a subtle change from a charge transfer to Mott-Hubbard type insulator.

- This publication summarizes the proceedings of day 2 of a 3-day workshop on Dissolution and Translational Modeling Strategies Enabling Patient-Centric Product Development. Patient-centric drug product development from a drug product quality perspective necessitates the establishment of clinically relevant drug product specifications via an in vitro-in vivo link. Modeling and simulation offer a path to establish this link; in this regard, physiologically based modeling has been implemented successfully to support regulatory decision-making and drug product labeling. In this manuscript, case studies of physiologically based biopharmaceutics modeling (PBBM) applied to drug product quality are presented and summarized. These case studies exemplify a possible path to achieve an in vitro-in vivo link and encompass (a) development of biopredictive dissolution methods to support biowaivers, (b) model-informed formulation selection, (c) predicting clinical formulation performance, and (d) defining a safe space for regulatory flexibility via virtual bioequivalence (BE). Workflows for the development and verification of absorption models/PBBM and for the establishment of a safe space using dissolution as an input are described with examples. Breakout session discussions on topics, such as current challenges and some best practices in model development and verification, are included as part of the Supplementary material.

- A series of N-acyl glucosamine-bearingtriterpenoidsaponins has been synthesized with cytotoxic activities evaluated against HL-60, PC-3, HCT-116, and CT-26 tumor cells. Saponins incorporated anoleanolic acid (OA) triterpenoidal core exhibited the highest cytotoxic activity. To study the influence of the lengths of acyl-carbon chain onN-position of glucosamine, cells were treated with28-propargylamides and then reacted with an azido-fluorogenic probe under CuAACclickreactions to visualize the intact distributions of these compounds by confocal microscopy and flow cytometry; it was found that cytotoxic-active compounds (30–32) located in the cytosol and inactivecompounds bearing longer carbon chains (33–35) were impenetrable across cell membranes.Our study demonstrated the defined lipophilic acyl-carbon chain length can precisely regulate thecytotoxic activityof saponins, which is useful for the future development of cytotoxic agents.Furthermore, using quantitative proteomics and immunolabeling,the mechanism ofcytotoxicity induced by the synthetic saponin after membrane penetration could be a result of activation of death receptor pathway and inhibition of PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway.
