Fibroblast Activation Protein α Activated Tripeptide Bufadienolide Antitumor Prodrug with Reduced Cardiotoxicity.
Bufadienolides are the major pharmacologic constituents of traditional Chinese medicine Chan'su, which is frequently used clinically for cancer treatment in China. Motivated by reducing or avoiding the cardiac toxicity of bufadienolides, we have designed, synthesized, and evaluated the fibroblast activation protein α (FAPα) activated tripeptide arenobufagin prodrugs with the purpose of improving the safety of arenobufagin (a representative bufadienolide). Among these FAPα-activated prodrugs, 3f exhibited the best hydrolytic efficiency by recombinant human FAPα (rhFAPα) and was activated in tumors.
