Production of Modified Megestrol by Jittima Khorungkul
Modified Megestrol Production Goal: Synthesis bifunctional molecule that can use in Liver cancer treatment Bifucntional molecule: Produce DNA adduct Specific binding the estrogen receptor with high affinity
Megestrol Estrogen receptor DNA adduct Binding to vER Bifunctional molecule structure Ligand Domain Linker War Head
Expression of essential gene Undamaged cell Nuclear protein (e.g.ER) promoter How modified megestrol work….. Estrogen and ER complex
Adduct shielded from Repair DNA repair enzyme Adduct persists
Adduct shielded from Repair In non-cancer cell (less express of vER) DNA repair enzyme adduct
Adduct shielded from Repair Cancer cell (over express of vER)
Adduct “Hijacks” Transcription Factor X Cancer cell (over express of vER)
Modified megestrol N,N -bis-chloroethylaniline (War Head) Alkyl-amino-carbamate (Linker) Megestrol acetate (Ligand Domain) Consisted of : (CH 2 ) 6 -N-(CH 2 ) 2 -0 N-(CH 2 ) 3 - -N H O H (CH 2 ) 2 C l Ligand DomainLinker War Head
Modified megestrol Megestrol acetate (Ligand Domain) -Binding to the linker at 7 alpha position Large alkyl groups can be attached with retention of high affinity for ER Megestrol acetate 7 alpha position
Modified megestrol N,N -bis-chloroethylaniline (War Head) - Ability to alkylate DNA - From covalent DNA adduct at the N7 position of guanines
Modified megestrol Alkyl-amino-carbamate (Linker) Consist of - amino - carbarmate group provide a relatively rigid connection resistant to hydrolytic enzyme
