[Display omitted] • Compound 9j showed potent JAK2 and BRD4(BD2) inhibitory potency with IC 50 values of 22 and 13 nM, respectively, and exhibited appropriate selectivity to other family proteins with high structural homology as well as the excellent human liver microsomal stability. • Compound 9j demonstrated a good therapeutic effect of acute ulcerative colitis and myeloproliferative disease in vivo. Based on the pharmacological synergy of JAK2 and BRD4 in the NF-κB pathway and positive therapeutic effect of combination of JAK2 and BRD4 inhibitors in treating MPN and inflammation. A series of unique 9 H -purine-2,6-diamine derivatives that selectively inhibited Janus kinase 2 (JAK2) and BRD4(BD2) were designed, prepared, and evaluated for their in vitro and in vivo potency. Among them, compound 9j exhibited acceptable inhibitory activity with IC 50 values of 13 and 22 nM for BD2 of BRD4 and JAK2, respectively. The western blot assay demonstrated that 9j performed good functional potency in the NF-κB pathway and the phosphorylation of p65, IκB-α, and IKKα/β signal intensities were suppressed on RAW264.7 cell lines. Furthermore, 9j significantly improved the disease symptoms in a Ba/F3- JAK2 V617F allograft model. Meanwhile, 9j was also effective in relieving symptoms in an acute ulcerative colitis model. Taken together, 9j was a potent JAK2/BRD4(BD2) dual target inhibitor and could be a potential lead compound in treating myeloproliferative neoplasms and inflammatory diseases. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
