Discovery of heterocycle-containing α-naphthoflavone derivatives as water-soluble, highly potent and selective CYP1B1 inhibitors

Jinyun Dong et al.

Summary: A series of 6,7,10-trimethoxy-alpha-naphthoflavone derivatives with variations in B ring were synthesized and screened, leading to the identification of fluorine-containing compound 15i as the most potent and selective CYP1B1 inhibitor. Amino-substituted derivative 13h showed potent inhibitory effect on CYP1B1 and increased water solubility compared to the lead molecule ANF.

Efficacy of combination treatment using YHO-1701, an orally active STAT3 inhibitor, with molecular-targeted agents on cancer cell lines

Keisuke Taniguchi et al.

Summary: The study evaluated the combination of the novel STAT3 inhibitor YHO-1701 with molecular-targeted agents, showing additive or synergistic effects in various combination treatments. Of particular interest was the synergistic effect observed when YHO-1701 was combined with specific drugs, which was closely related to the cellular levels of key molecules involved in the target pathways.

Discovery of N-substituted sulfamoylbenzamide derivatives as novel inhibitors of STAT3 signaling pathway based on Niclosamide

Xuebao Wang et al.

Summary: A series of N-substituted Sulfamoylbenzamide STAT3 inhibitors based on Niclosamide were designed and synthesized, with compound B12 identified as a potent inhibitor of IL-6/STAT3 signaling in cancer cell lines. In vivo studies showed that B12 was more effective than Niclosamide in suppressing tumor growth, making it a promising orally bioavailable anticancer agent for further development.
