Article Abstract

In this study, we report a series of newly synthesised sulphonamides of aziridine-2-carboxylic acid (Az-COOH) ester and amide analogues as potent protein disulphide isomerase (PDI, EC 5.3.4.1) inhibitors. The inhibitory activity on PDI was determined against recombinant human PDIA1 and PDIA3 proteins using an insulin reduction assay. These compounds in low micromolar to low nanomolar concentrations showed the effective inhibitory properties of PDIA1 with weaker effects on PDIA3. Complexes of N- and N,C- uniformly labelled recombinant human PDIA1a with two PDIA1 inhibitors were produced and investigated by a protein nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. It was found that both C53 and C56 of the PDIA1 enzyme were involved in covalent binding. Finally, in a range of pharmacological studies, we demonstrated that investigated compounds displayed anti-cancer and anti-thrombotic activity. These findings demonstrate that sulphonamides of Az-COOH derivatives are promising candidates for the development of novel anti-cancer and anti-thrombotic agents.

Background: Protein disulfide isomerase 1 (PDIA1) and 3 (PDIA3) regulate platelet activation and thrombus formation. However, their role in the formation of platelet-derived extracellular vesicles (pEVs) remains unknown.

Aim: To characterise the effects of PDIA1 and PDIA3 inhibition on pEV formation in washed murine platelets in response to platelet glycoprotein VI (GPVI) receptor or intracellular calcium signal activation.

Protein disulfide isomerases (PDIs) are involved in many intracellular and extracellular processes, including cell adhesion and cytoskeletal reorganisation, but their contribution to the regulation of fenestrations in liver sinusoidal endothelial cells (LSECs) remains unknown. Given that fenestrations are supported on a cytoskeleton scaffold, this study aimed to investigate whether endothelial PDIs regulate fenestration dynamics in primary mouse LSECs. PDIA3 and PDIA1 were found to be the most abundant among PDI isoforms in LSECs.

Article Synopsis
  • Protein disulphide isomerases (PDIs) are crucial in cancer progression, but their specific roles in tumor formation are still unclear.
  • In a study of 22 cancer cell lines, PDIA1 and PDIA3 were found to be the most abundant isoforms, while PDIA17 showed varying expression levels across different cell lines.
  • Inhibition of PDIA1 and PDIA3 led to significant anti-proliferative effects in breast cancer cells, with the most notable effects seen in hormone-sensitive MCF-7 cells, suggesting potential strategies for targeted cancer therapies.
