Abstrakt | The synthesis and activity of a new series of non-steroidal inhibitors of 17beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase are based on a 1,5-benzodiazepine scaffold are presented. Their inhibitory potential was screened against 17beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase from the fungus Cochliobolus luuatus (17beta-HSDcI), a model enzyme of the short-chain dehydrogenase/ reductase superfamily. Some of these compounds are potent inhibitors of 17beta-HSDcI activity, with IC50 values in the low micromolar range and represent promising lead compounds that should be further developed and investigated as inhibitors of human 17beta-HSD isoforms, which are the enzymes associated with the development of many hormone-dependent and neuronal diseases. | |
