STAT3 regulates a variety of genes involved with cell proliferation,
differentiation, apoptosis, angiogenesis, metastasis, inflammation, and immunity.
The purpose of this study was to apply molecular docking techniques to identify
STAT3 inhibitors from a database of over 90000 natural product and natural
product-like compounds. The virtual screening campaign furnished 14 hit
compounds, from which compound 1 emerged as a top candidate. Compound 1 inhibited
STAT3 DNA-binding activity in vitro and attenuated STAT3-directed transcription
in cellulo with selectivity over STAT1 and with comparable potency to the
well-known STAT3 inhibitor S3I-201. Furthermore, compound 1 inhibited STAT3
dimerization and decreased STAT3 phosphorylation in cells without affecting STAT1
dimerization and phosphorylation. Compound 1 also exhibited selective
anti-proliferative activity against cancer cells over normal cells in vitro.
Molecular docking analysis suggested that compound 1 might putatively function as
an inhibitor of STAT3 dimerization by binding to the SH2 domain. This study also
validates the use of in silico techniques to identify inhibitors of
protein-protein interactions, which are typically considered difficult to target
with small molecules.
