Methanethiosulfonate derivatives as ligands of the STAT3-SH2 domain #MMPMID28097912

With the aim to discover new STAT3 direct inhibitors, potentially useful as anticancer agents, a set of methanethiosulfonate drug hybrids were synthesized. The in vitro tests showed that all the thiosulfonic compounds were able to strongly and selectively bind STAT3-SH2 domain, whereas the parent drugs were completely devoid of this ability. In addition, some of them showed a moderate antiproliferative activity on HCT-116 cancer cell line. These results suggest that methanethiosulfonate moiety can be considered a useful scaffold in the preparation of new direct STAT3 inhibitors. Interestingly, an unusual kind of organo-sulfur derivative, endowed with valuable antiproliferative activity, was occasionally isolated.
