Abstract Aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase-interacting multifunctional protein 2 (AIMP2) is a potent tumor suppressor inducing apoptosis upon various signals. AIMP2-DX2, an exon2-deleted splicing variant of AIMP2, is upregulated in several cancer cells and competitively suppresses the pro-apoptotic activity of AIMP2 resulting in tumorigenesis. We identified that a series of hydrazone derivatives inhibited the expression of AIMP2-DX2. Herein, we report that 1) how new scaffolds were designed and validated; 2) optimization process through syntheses and evaluation of derivatives; 3) structure-activity relationship (SAR) analysis of a series of compounds; 4) profiles of validated hits. Additionally we disclose the results of in vivo assay.
