Abstract
The purpose of this review is to provide an update on our work based on the 1,4-bis(3- aminopropyl)piperazine skeleton and how it allowed our group to validate a new target. After a brief introduction where we will relate the way this substructure was introduced in our 4- aminoquinolinyl derivatives, we will present first the different libraries synthesized around this moiety: (1) libraries of sulfonamides, amides and amines derived from 4-aminoquinolines and, (2) libraries where the 4- aminoquinoline nucleus is replaced. High throughput evaluation of biological activity and physicochemical parameters will be presented. The evaluation of the anti-malarial activity of the compounds will be discussed in the light of a chloroquine-like mechanism (accumulation in the acidic food vacuole and inhibition of β-hematin formation). In a second part we will present active 1,4-bis(3-aminopropyl)piperazine as tools for identification and / or validation of new antimalarial targets. Fluorescence assays on some derivatives show that they are surprisingly localized outside the food vacuole, suggesting the existence of other target(s). Secondly, we will present a library of 1,4-bis(3-aminopropyl)piperazine as inhibitors of the cytosolic aminopeptidase Pfa-M1, a new potential target for antimalarials.
