-
Paragraph 0549; 0550, (2017/04/04)
Provided herein are novel substituted bicyclic aza-heterocycle sirtuin-modulating compounds and methods of use thereof. The sirtuin-modulating compounds may be used for increasing the lifespan of a cell, and treating and/or preventing a wide variety of diseases and disorders including, for example, diseases or disorders related to aging or stress, diabetes, obesity, neurodegenerative diseases, cardiovascular disease, blood clotting disorders, inflammation, cancer, and/or flushing as well as diseases or disorders that would benefit from increased mitochondrial activity. Also provided are compositions comprising a sirtuin-modulating compound in combination with another therapeutic agent.

Seventeen 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroimidazo[1,5-a]pyrimidine derivatives bearing electron-withdrawing substituents were designed and synthesized by novel ring closure as potential antitumor agents. They were screened for their activities against mouse leukemia L1210 and human oral epidermoid carcinoma KB cell lines, and relationships of structure and antitumor activity in vitro are discussed. It was found that 8-thiocarbamoyl-1,2,3,4- tetrahydroimidazo[1,5-α]pyrimidin-2(1H)-thione (8c) exhibited activity comparable to that of 5-fluorouracil against both L1210 and KB cells. The existence of both 2-thioxo and 8-substituent with a thioxo group in the molecule is crucial for the cytotoxicity against L1210 and KB cells. A novel procedure for introduction of a double bond between C-3 and C-4 in 8c was developed. Introduction of the 3,4-double bond increased the activity against L1210, but against KB cells the activity decreased by 4-fold. Cytotoxicity of compounds 8c and 8-thiocarbamoyl-1,2-dihydroimidazo[1,5-α]pyrimidin-2(1H)- thione (11c) against human solid tumor and leukemia cell lines was further evaluated. The saturation of the 3,4-double bond led to a significant increase in cytotoxicity against tumor cell lines tested.
