The myo-1,2-Diaminocyclitol Scaffold Defines Potent Glucocerebrosidase Activators and Promising Pharmacological Chaperones for Gaucher Disease.

ABSTRACT: A series of cyclitol derivatives with myo-configuration are β-glucocerebrosidase (GCase) inhibitors and show excellent characteristics for the development of pharmacological chaperones for enzyme deficiency in Gaucher disease (GD). The most potent inhibitor, (1S,2R,3R,4S,5R,6S)-5,6-bis(nonylamino)cyclohexane-1,2,3,4-tetraol, displayed a K i value of 26 nM in isolated enzyme and also inhibited GCase in wild-type (wt) human fibroblasts at nanomolar concentrations. This diaminocyclitol produced maximum increases of GCase activities of 60% in N370S lymphoblasts at 100 nM and 30% in L444P at 1 nM following a 3-day incubation, showing the permeability, subcellular distribution, and cell metabolism characteristics for use as pharmacological chaperone.

Isofagomine- and 2,5-anhydro-2,5-imino-D-glucitol-based glucocerebrosidase pharmacological chaperones for Gaucher disease intervention.

Project description:Gaucher disease, resulting from deficient lysosomal glucocerebrosidase (GC) activity, is the most common lysosomal storage disorder. Clinically important GC mutant enzymes typically have reduced specific activity and reduced lysosomal concentration, the latter due to compromised folding and trafficking. We and others have demonstrated that pharmacological chaperones assist variant GC folding by binding to the active site, stabilizing the native conformation of GC in the neutral pH environment of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), enabling its trafficking from the ER to the Golgi and on to the lysosome. The mutated GC fold is generally stable in the lysosome after pharmacological chaperone dissociation, owing to the low pH environment for which the fold was evolutionarily optimized and the high substrate concentration, enabling GC to hydrolyze glucosylceramide to glucose and ceramide. The hypothesis of this study was that we could combine GC pharmacological chaperone structure-activity relationships from distinct chemical series to afford potent novel chaperones comprising a carbohydrate-like substructure that binds in the active site with a hydrophobic substructure that binds in a nearby pocket. We combined isofagomine and 2,5-anhydro-2,5-imino-D-glucitol active site binding substructures with hydrophobic alkyl adamantyl amides to afford novel small molecules with enhanced ability to increase GC activity in patient-derived fibroblasts. The cellular activity of N370S and G202R GC in fibroblasts is increased by 2.5- and 7.2-fold with isofagmine-based pharmacological chaperones N-adamantanyl-4-((3R,4R,5R)-3,4-dihydroxy-5-(hydroxymethyl)piperidin-1-yl)-butanamide (3) and N-adamantanyl-4-((3R,4R,5R)-3,4-dihydroxy-5-(hydroxymethyl)piperidin-1-yl)pentanamide (4), respectively, the best enhancements observed to date.

Pharmacological Chaperones and Coenzyme Q10 Treatment Improves Mutant ?-Glucocerebrosidase Activity and Mitochondrial Function in Neuronopathic Forms of Gaucher Disease.

Project description:Gaucher disease (GD) is caused by mutations in the GBA1 gene, which encodes lysosomal ?-glucocerebrosidase. Homozygosity for the L444P mutation in GBA1 is associated with high risk of neurological manifestations which are not improved by enzyme replacement therapy. Alternatively, pharmacological chaperones (PCs) capable of restoring the correct folding and trafficking of the mutant enzyme represent promising alternative therapies.Here, we report on how the L444P mutation affects mitochondrial function in primary fibroblast derived from GD patients. Mitochondrial dysfunction was associated with reduced mitochondrial membrane potential, increased reactive oxygen species (ROS), mitophagy activation and impaired autophagic flux.Both abnormalities, mitochondrial dysfunction and deficient ?-glucocerebrosidase activity, were partially restored by supplementation with coenzyme Q10 (CoQ) or a L-idonojirimycin derivative, N-[N'-(4-adamantan-1-ylcarboxamidobutyl)thiocarbamoyl]-1,6-anhydro-L-idonojirimycin (NAdBT-AIJ), and more markedly by the combination of both treatments. These data suggest that targeting both mitochondria function by CoQ and protein misfolding by PCs can be promising therapies in neurological forms of GD.

Celastrol increases glucocerebrosidase activity in Gaucher disease by modulating molecular chaperones.

Project description:Gaucher disease is caused by mutations in the glucosidase, beta, acid gene that encodes glucocerebrosidase (GCase). Glucosidase, beta, acid mutations often cause protein misfolding and quantitative loss of GCase. In the present study, we found that celastrol, an herb derivative with known anticancer, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant activity, significantly increased the quantity and catalytic activity of GCase. Celastrol interfered with the establishment of the heat-shock protein 90/Hsp90 cochaperone Cdc37/Hsp90-Hsp70-organizing protein chaperone complex with mutant GCase and reduced heat-shock protein 90-associated protein degradation. In addition, celastrol modulated the expression of molecular chaperones. Bcl2-associated athanogene 3 and heat shock 70kDa proteins 1A and 1B were significantly increased by celastrol. Furthermore, BAG family molecular chaperone regulator 3 assisted protein folding and maturation of mutant GCase. These findings provide insight into a therapeutic strategy for Gaucher disease and other human disorders that are associated with protein misfolding.

Identification of pharmacological chaperones for Gaucher disease and characterization of their effects on beta-glucocerebrosidase by hydrogen/deuterium exchange mass spectrometry.

Project description:Point mutations in beta-glucocerebrosidase (GCase) can result in a deficiency of both GCase activity and protein in lysosomes thereby causing Gaucher Disease (GD). Enzyme inhibitors such as isofagomine, acting as pharmacological chaperones (PCs), increase these levels by binding and stabilizing the native form of the enzyme in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), and allow increased lysosomal transport of the enzyme. A high-throughput screen of the 50,000-compound Maybridge library identified two, non-carbohydrate-based inhibitory molecules, a 2,4-diamino-5-substituted quinazoline (IC(50) 5 microM) and a 5-substituted pyridinyl-2-furamide (IC(50) 8 microM). They raised the levels of functional GCase 1.5-2.5-fold in N370S or F213I GD fibroblasts. Immunofluorescence confirmed that treated GD fibroblasts had decreased levels of GCase in their ER and increased levels in lysosomes. Changes in protein dynamics, monitored by hydrogen/deuterium-exchange mass spectrometry, identified a domain III active-site loop (residues 243-249) as being significantly stabilized upon binding of isofagomine or either of these two new compounds; this suggests a common mechanism for PC enhancement of intracellular transport.

Rapid assembly of a library of lipophilic iminosugars via the thiol-ene reaction yields promising pharmacological chaperones for the treatment of Gaucher disease.

Project description:A highly divergent route to lipophilic iminosugars that utilizes the thiol-ene reaction was developed to enable the rapid synthesis of a collection of 16 dideoxyiminoxylitols bearing various different lipophilic substituents. Enzyme kinetic analyses revealed that a number of these products are potent, low-nanomolar inhibitors of human glucocerebrosidase that stabilize the enzyme to thermal denaturation by up to 20 K. Cell based assays conducted on Gaucher disease patient derived fibroblasts demonstrated that administration of the compounds can increase lysosomal glucocerebrosidase activity levels by therapeutically relevant amounts, as much as 3.2-fold in cells homozygous for the p.N370S mutation and 1.4-fold in cells homozygous for the p.L444P mutation. Several compounds elicited this increase in enzyme activity over a relatively wide dosage range. The data assembled here illustrate how the lipophilic moiety common to many glucocerebrosidase inhibitors might be used to optimize a lead compound's ability to chaperone the protein in cellulo. The flexibility of this synthetic strategy makes it an attractive approach to the rapid optimization of glycosidase inhibitor potency and pharmacokinetic behavior.

Stereoselective Synthesis of C-2 Alkylated Trihydroxypiperidines: Novel Pharmacological Chaperones for Gaucher Disease.

Project description:Pharmacological chaperones (PCs) are small molecules that bind and stabilize enzymes. They can rescue the enzymatic activity of misfolded or deficient enzymes when they are used at subinhibitory concentration, thus with minimal side effects. Pharmacological Chaperone Therapy (PCT) is an emerging treatment for many lysosomal storage disorders (LSDs) including Gaucher disease, the most common, which is characterized by a deficiency in the GCase enzyme. We report herein a straightforward synthetic strategy to afford C-2 substituted trihydroxypiperidines with different alkyl chains starting from low cost d-mannose. Stereoselective Grignard reagent addition onto a key nitrone intermediate in the presence or absence of a suitable Lewis acid afforded both epimers of the target compounds, after a final reductive amination-ring closure step. We show that the shift of the alkyl chain from the endocyclic nitrogen to the C-2 position leads to a considerable increase in chaperoning efficacy, affording a new compound (4a) able to induce a remarkable 1.9-fold maximal increase in GCase activity.

FKBP10 depletion enhances glucocerebrosidase proteostasis in Gaucher disease fibroblasts.

Project description:Lysosomal storage diseases (LSDs) are often caused by mutations compromising lysosomal enzyme folding in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), leading to degradation and loss of function. Mass spectrometry analysis of Gaucher fibroblasts treated with mechanistically distinct molecules that increase LSD enzyme folding, trafficking, and function resulted in the identification of nine commonly downregulated and two jointly upregulated proteins, which we hypothesized would be critical proteostasis network components for ameliorating loss-of-function diseases. LIMP-2 and FK506 binding protein 10 (FKBP10) were validated as such herein. Increased FKBP10 levels accelerated mutant glucocerebrosidase degradation over folding and trafficking, whereas decreased ER FKBP10 concentration led to more LSD enzyme partitioning into the calnexin profolding pathway, enhancing folding and activity to levels thought to ameliorate LSDs. Thus, targeting FKBP10 appears to be a heretofore unrecognized therapeutic strategy to ameliorate LSDs.

Glucocerebrosidase 2 gene deletion rescues type 1 Gaucher disease.

Project description:The inherited deficiency of the lysosomal glucocerebrosidase (GBA) due to mutations in the GBA gene results in Gaucher disease (GD). A vast majority of patients present with nonneuronopathic, type 1 GD (GD1). GBA deficiency causes the accumulation of two key sphingolipids, glucosylceramide (GL-1) and glucosylsphingosine (LysoGL-1), classically noted within the lysosomes of mononuclear phagocytes. How metabolites of GL-1 or LysoGL-1 produced by extralysosomal glucocerebrosidase GBA2 contribute to the GD1 pathophysiology is not known. We recently recapitulated hepatosplenomegaly, cytopenia, hypercytokinemia, and the bone-formation defect of human GD1 through conditional deletion of Gba in Mx1-Cre(+):GD1 mice. Here we show that the deletion of Gba2 significantly rescues the GD1 clinical phenotype, despite enhanced elevations in GL-1 and LysoGL-1. Most notably, the reduced bone volume and bone formation rate are normalized. These results suggest that metabolism of GL-1 or LysoGL-1 into downstream bioactive lipids is a major contributor to the bone-formation defect. Direct testing revealed a strong inhibition of osteoblast viability by nanomolar concentrations of sphingosine, but not of ceramide. These findings are consistent with toxicity of high circulating sphingosine levels in GD1 patients, which decline upon enzyme-replacement therapy; serum ceramide levels remain unchanged. Together, complementary results from mice and humans affected with GD1 not only pinpoint sphingosine as being an osteoblast toxin, but also set forth Gba2 as a viable therapeutic target for the development of inhibitors to ameliorate certain disabling consequences of GD1.

Galactosemia: Towards Pharmacological Chaperones.

Project description:Galactosemia is a rare inherited metabolic disease resulting from mutations in the four genes which encode enzymes involved in the metabolism of galactose. The current therapy, the removal of galactose from the diet, is inadequate. Consequently, many patients suffer lifelong physical and cognitive disability. The phenotype varies from almost asymptomatic to life-threatening disability. The fundamental biochemical cause of the disease is a decrease in enzymatic activity due to failure of the affected protein to fold and/or function correctly. Many novel therapies have been proposed for the treatment of galactosemia. Often, these are designed to treat the symptoms and not the fundamental cause. Pharmacological chaperones (PC) (small molecules which correct the folding of misfolded proteins) represent an exciting potential therapy for galactosemia. In theory, they would restore enzyme function, thus preventing downstream pathological consequences. In practice, no PCs have been identified for potential application in galactosemia. Here, we review the biochemical basis of the disease, identify opportunities for the application of PCs and describe how these might be discovered. We will conclude by considering some of the clinical issues which will affect the future use of PCs in the treatment of galactosemia.
