Design, synthesis and SAR studies of NAD analogues as potent inhibitors towards CD38 NADase
Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD), one of the most important coenzymes in the cells, is a substrate of the signaling enzyme CD38, by which NAD is converted to a second messenger, cyclic ADP-ribose, which releases calcium from intracellular calcium stores. Starting with 2'-deoxy-2'-fl...

Summary: | Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD), one of the most important coenzymes in the cells, is a substrate of the signaling enzyme CD38, by which NAD is converted to a second messenger, cyclic ADP-ribose, which releases calcium from intracellular calcium stores. Starting with 2'-deoxy-2'-fluoroarabinosyl-β-nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (ara-F NAD), a series of NAD analogues were synthesized and their activities to inhibit CD38 NAD glycohydrolase (NADase) were evaluated. The adenosine-modified analogues showed potent inhibitory activities, among which 2'-deoxy-2'-fluoroarabinosyl-β-nicotinamide guanine dinucleotide (ara-F NGD) was the most effective one. The structure-activity relationship of NAD analogues was also discussed. |
