研究兴趣

药物化学:发展催化机制导向的(catalytic mechanism-based)酶抑制剂;发展酶催化反应的化学探针(activity-based chemical probe)并探索其在生物学和药物化学研究中的应用;新型肽装订(peptide stapling)途径的发展并探索其在药物化学研究中的应用。

本着这些研究兴趣,本课题组在美国Akron大学期间首次在世界范围内开展了发展催化机制导向的蛋白酰化赖氨酸去酰化酶sirtuin抑制剂的工作,并且发展出了三大主类催化机制导向的sirtuin抑制弹头(即硫酰胺类(thioacyl-type),硫脲类(thiourea-type),酰胺类(carboxamide-type))的原型,而且最近几年发展出了迄今最为强效和/或选择性并且酶解稳定及能透过细胞膜的sirtuin抑制剂 (参见:Jiang, Yanhong; Liu, Jiajia; Chen, Di; Yan, Lingling; Zheng, Weiping*. Sirtuin inhibition: strategies, inhibitors, and therapeutic potential. Trends in Pharmacological Sciences 2017, 38, 459-472)。迄今的研究表明该催化机制导向的设计途径代表目前最为简便但是最为有效的sirtuin抑制剂先导化合物产生 (Lead Generation) 的方法。本课题组在sirtuin的化学生物学、生物有机化学、药物化学领域已经建立了国际学术地位 (参见:我应邀为世界著名出版集团Elsevier的系列丛书Progress in Molecular Biology and Translational Science主编了题为Sirtuins in Health and Disease的专著 (https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/bookseries/18771173,20182月出版))。

本课题组近年与美国Case Western Reserve大学Zhenghe Wang教授课题组合作成功地鉴定出一个新型的只存在于某些结肠癌细胞内的基于蛋白-蛋白相互作用 (protein-protein interaction, PPI) 的癌症药物靶点 (参见:Hao, Yujun; Wang, Chao; Cao, Bo; Hirsch, Brett M.; Song, Jing; Markowitz, Sanford D.; Ewing, Rob M.; Sedwick, David; Liu, Lili; Zheng, Weiping*; Wang, Zhenghe*. Gain of interaction with IRS1 by p110alpha helical domain mutants is crucial for their oncogenic functions. Cancer Cell 2013, 23, 583-593评论文章:John E. Burke and Roger L. Williams (MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology, Cambridge, UK). Connecting with an old partner in a new way. Cancer Cell 2013, 23, 559-561)。虽然在这项研究中运用已知的全碳氢链肽装订(all-hydrocarbon peptide stapling)途径发展出了一个强效且能透过细胞膜的该PPI的抑制剂,我们有兴趣发展新型且更优越的肽装订途径以运用到这项研究中以及整个药物化学的范畴中。

本课题组的研究对于发展新型的药物 (特别是抗癌药物) 具有深远的意义。参与本课题组的研究可以得到现代药物化学科研理念上的熏陶以及科研技术上的装备。
