Ectonucleoside triphosphate diphosphohydrolases (NTPDases) catalyze the hydrolysis of nucleoside tri- and di-phosphates to mono-phosphates. The products are subsequently hydrolyzed by ecto-5′-nucleotidase (ecto-5′-NT) to nucleosides. NTPDase inhibitors have potential as novel drugs, e.g., for the treatment of inflammation, neurodegenerative diseases, and cancer. In this context, a series of anthraquinone derivatives structurally related to the anthraquinone dye reactive blue-2 (RB-2) was synthesized and evaluated as inhibitors of human NTPDases utilizing a malachite green assay. We identified several potent and selective inhibitors of human NTPDase2 and -3. Among the most potent NTPDase2 inhibitors were 1-amino-4-(9-phenanthrylamino)-9,10-dioxo-9,10-dihydroanthracene-2-sulfonate (20, PSB-16131, IC50 of 539 nM) and 1-amino-4-(3-chloro-4-phenylsulfanyl)phenylamino-9,10-dioxo-9,10-dihydroanthracene-2-sulfonate (48, PSB-2020, IC50 of 551 nM). The most potent NTPDase3 inhibitors were 1-amino-4-[3-(4,6-dichlorotriazin-2-ylamino)-4-sulfophenylamino]-9,10-dioxo-9,10-dihydroanthracene-2-sulfonate (42, PSB-1011, IC50 of 390 nM) and 1-amino-4-(3-carboxy-4-hydroxyphenylamino)-9,10-dioxo-9,10-dihydroanthracene-2-sulfonate (33, PSB-2046, IC50 of 723 nM). The best NTPDase2 inhibitor 20 showed a non-competitive inhibition type, while the NTPDase3 inhibitor 42 behaved as a mixed-type inhibitor. These potent compounds were found to be selective vs. other NTPDases. They will be useful tools for studying the roles of NTPDase2 and -3 in physiology and under pathological conditions.

ecto-5′-Nucleotidase (eN, CD73) plays a major role in controlling extracellular adenosine levels. eN inhibitors have potential as novel drugs, for example, for the treatment of cancer. In the present study, we synthesized and investigated a series of 55 anthraquinone derivatives as potential inhibitors of eN, 11 of which are novel compounds and another 11 of which had previously been described but have now been synthesized by an improved method. We identified several potent inhibitors of rat eN. The most potent compounds were l-amino-4-[4-fluoro-2-carboxyphenylamino]-9,10-dioxo-9,10-dihydroanthracene-2- sulfonate (45, PSB-0952, K1 = 260 nM) and 1-amino-4-[2- anthracenylamino]-9,10-dioxo-9,10dihydroanthracene-2-sulfonate (52, PSB-0963, 150 nM), with 52 being the most potent eN inhibitor described to date. Selected compounds were further characterized and found to exhibit a competitive mechanism of inhibition. Investigations of ecio-nucleoside triphosphate diphosphohydrolases (NTPDases) and the P2Y receptor subtypes P2Y2, P2Y4, P2Y6, and P2Y12 showed that compound 45 exhibited the highest degree of selectivity ( > 150-fold).
