A successful structure-based design of a class of non-peptide small-molecule MDM2 inhibitors targeting the p53−MDM2 protein−protein interaction is reported. The most potent compound1dbinds to MDM2 protein with aKivalue of 86 nM and is 18 times more potent than a natural p53 peptide (residues 16−27). Compound1dis potent in inhibition of cell growth in LNCaP prostate cancer cells with wild-type p53 and shows only a weak activity in PC-3 prostate cancer cells with a deleted p53. Importantly,1dhas a minimal toxicity to normal prostate epithelial cells. Our studies provide a convincing example that structure-based strategy can be employed to design highly potent, non-peptide, cell-permeable, small-molecule inhibitors to target protein−protein interaction, which remains a very challenging area in chemical biology and drug design.
