The discovery of a structurally new inhibitor of aminopeptidase N and its anti-angiogenic activity are reported.
In the course of our screening,
N-hydroxy-2-(naphthalene-2-ylsulfanyl)-acetamide (
1), which contains a metal-chelating hydroxamate group, has been identified as a potent inhibitor of aminopeptidase N (APN, EC 3.4.11.2). Compound
1 potently inhibited APN activity with a
K
i value of 3.5
μM. It also inhibited the basic fibroblast growth-factor-induced invasion of bovine aortic endothelial cells at low micromolar concentrations.
