The invention discloses an inhibitor for AKR1C3 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt of the inhibitor as well as a preparation method and application of the inhibitor or the pharmaceutically acceptable salt. Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug flurbiprofen is used as a lead compound for structural optimization. The invention discloses the biphenyl-based AKR1C3 inhibitor represented by a formula(I) shown in the specification and the preparation method of the inhibitor. Target activity tests prove that the compounds provided by the invention can significantly inhibit activity of AKR1C3, and can be further used for development of a drug for treating and/or preventing diseases by inhibiting the aldo-keto reductase AKR1C3; and a molecular basis is laid for drug resistance-related mechanisticstudy of tumors.

Flurbiprofen, a nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drug (NSAID), has been recently described to selectively inhibit β-amyloid1-42 (Aβ42) secretion, the most toxic component of the senile plaques present in the brain of Alzheimer patients. The use of this NSAID in Alzheimer's disease (AD) is hampered by a significant gastrointestinal toxicity associated with cyclooxygenase (COX) inhibition. New flurbiprofen analogues were synthesized, with the aim of increasing Aβ42 inhibitory potency while removing anti-COX activity. In vitro ADME developability parameters were taken into account in order to identify optimized compounds at an early stage of the project. Appropriate substitution patterns at the alpha position of flurbiprofen allowed for the complete removal of anti-COX activity, while modifications at the terminal phenyl ring resulted in increased inhibitory potency on Aβ42 secretion. In rats, some of the compounds appeared to be well absorbed after oral administration and to penetrate into the central nervous system. Studies in a transgenic mice model of AD showed that selected compounds significantly decreased plasma Aβ42 concentrations. These new flurbiprofen analogues represent potential drug candidates to be developed for the treatment of AD.
