In organic chemistry, atoms other than carbon and hydrogen are generally referred to as heteroatoms. The most common heteroatoms are nitrogen, oxygen and sulfur. Now I present to you an article called Design, Synthesis, Evaluation, and Structural Studies of C2-Symmetric Small Molecule Inhibitors of Programmed Cell Death-1/Programmed Death-Ligand 1 Protein-Protein Interaction, published in 2019-08-08, which mentions a compound: 562074-59-3, mainly applied to preparation C2 small mol inhibitor PD1 PDL1 interaction cancer, Safety of 5-(Chloromethyl)nicotinonitrile.
A series of C2-sym. inhibitors was designed and evaluated for inhibitory activity against the programmed cell death-1/programmed death-ligand 1(PD-1/PD-L1) protein-protein interaction (PPI) in a homogeneous time-resolved fluorescence (HTRF) assay and PD-1 signaling in cell-based coculture assays. C2-sym. inhibitors 2a (LH1306) and 2b (LH1307) exhibited IC50 values of 25 and 3.0 nM, resp., in the HTRF assay. While 2a was ∼3.8-fold more potent than previously reported inhibitor 1a, 2b could not be differentiated from 1b due to their high potency and the limit of our HTRF assay conditions. In one cell-based coculture PD-1 signaling assay, 2a and 2b were 8.2- and 2.8-fold more potent in inhibiting PD-1 signaling than 1a and 1b, resp. NMR and X-ray cocrystal structural studies provided more structural insights into the interaction between 2b and PD-L1; 2b binds to PD-L1 at the PD-1 binding site and induces the formation of a more sym. arranged PD-L1 homodimer than that previously reported for other inhibitors.
