C4 phenyl aporphines with selective h5-HT(2B) receptor affinity.

ABSTRACT: A group of aporphine alkaloids related to (±)-nantenine (1) and bearing a C4 phenyl and various C1 or N-substituents, was synthesized and evaluated for affinity to h5-HT receptors. In general, unlike nantenine, the analogs lack affinity for the h5-HT(2A) receptor and other 5-HT receptors but bind selectively to the h5-HT(2B) receptor. With regards to 5-HT(2B) affinity, there appears to be a low tolerance for bulky C1 or N-substituents when the C4 phenyl moiety is present. Compound 5a had the highest 5-HT(2B) affinity of the compounds tested, was found to be an antagonist and is selective vs other CNS receptors.

5-HT(2B) receptors are required for serotonin-selective antidepressant actions.

Project description:The therapeutic effects induced by serotonin-selective reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) antidepressants are initially triggered by blocking the serotonin transporter and rely on long-term adaptations of pre- and post-synaptic receptors. We show here that long-term behavioral and neurogenic SSRI effects are abolished after either genetic or pharmacological inactivation of 5-HT(2B) receptors. Conversely, direct agonist stimulation of 5-HT(2B) receptors induces an SSRI-like response in behavioral and neurogenic assays. Moreover, the observation that (i) this receptor is expressed by raphe serotonergic neurons, (ii) the SSRI-induced increase in hippocampal extracellular serotonin concentration is strongly reduced in the absence of functional 5-HT(2B) receptors and (iii) a selective 5-HT(2B) agonist mimics SSRI responses, supports a positive regulation of serotonergic neurons by 5-HT(2B) receptors. The 5-HT(2B) receptor appears, therefore, to positively modulate serotonergic activity and to be required for the therapeutic actions of SSRIs. Consequently, the 5-HT(2B) receptor should be considered as a new tractable target in the combat against depression.

3-Amino-chromanes and Tetrahydroquinolines as Selective 5-HT2B, 5-HT7, or σ1 Receptor Ligands.

Project description:The phenethylamine backbone is a privileged substructure found in a wide variety of G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) ligands. This includes both endogenous neurotransmitters and active pharmaceutical agents. More than 20 structurally unique heterocyclic phenethylamine derivatives were broadly evaluated for GPCR affinity. Selective ligands for the 5-HT2B, 5-HT7, and σ1 receptors were identified, each with low nanomolar binding affinities. The σ1 receptor affinity was supported in a cellular assay that provided evidence for increased cell survival under oxidative stress.

Evaluation of structural effects on 5-HT(2A) receptor antagonism by aporphines: identification of a new aporphine with 5-HT(2A) antagonist activity.

Project description:A set of aporphine analogs related to nantenine was evaluated for antagonist activity at 5-HT2A and ?1A adrenergic receptors. With regards to 5-HT2A receptor antagonism, a C2 allyl group is detrimental to activity. The chiral center of nantenine is not important for 5-HT2A antagonist activity, however the N6 nitrogen atom is a critical feature for 5-HT2A antagonism. Compound 12b was the most potent 5-HT2A aporphine antagonist identified in this study and has similar potency to previously identified aporphine antagonists 2 and 3. The ring A and N6 modifications examined were detrimental to ?1A antagonism. A slight eutomeric preference for the R enantiomer of nantenine was observed in relation to ?1A antagonism.

Affinity of aporphines for the human 5-HT2A receptor: insights from homology modeling and molecular docking studies.

Project description:Analogs of nantenine were docked into a modeled structure of the human 5-HT(2A) receptor using ICM Pro, GLIDE, and GOLD docking methods. The resultant docking scores were used to correlate with observed in vitro apparent affinity (K(e)) data. The GOLD docking algorithm when used with a homology model of 5-HT(2A), based on a bovine rhodopsin template and built by the program MODELLER, gives results which are most in agreement with the in vitro results. Further analysis of the docking poses among members of a C1 alkyl series of nantenine analogs, indicate that they bind to the receptor in a similar orientation, but differently than nantenine. Besides an important interaction between the protonated nitrogen of the C1 alkyl analogs and residue Asp155, we identified Ser242, Phe234, and Gly238 as key residues responsible for the affinity of these compounds for the 5-HT(2A) receptor. Specifically, the ability of some of these analogs to establish a H-bond with Ser242 and hydrophobic interactions with Phe234 and Gly238 appears to explain their enhanced affinity as compared to nantenine.

Progress in the discovery of selective, high affinity A(2B) adenosine receptor antagonists as clinical candidates.

Project description:The selective, high affinity A(2B) adenosine receptor (AdoR) antagonists that were synthesized by several research groups should aid in determining the role of the A(2B) AdoR in inflammatory diseases like asthma or rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and angiogenic diseases like diabetic retinopathy or cancer. CV Therapeutics scientists discovered the selective, high affinity A(2B) AdoR antagonist 10, a 8-(4-pyrazolyl)-xanthine derivative [CVT-6883, K(i)(hA(2B)) = 22 nM; K(i)(hA(1)) = 1,940 nM; K(i)(hA(2A)) = 3,280; and K(i)(hA(3)) = 1,070 nM] that has favorable pharmacokinetic (PK) properties (t (1/2) = 4 h and F > 35% rat). Compound 10 demonstrated functional antagonism at the A(2B) AdoR (K(B) = 6 nM) and efficacy in a mouse model of asthma. In two phase 1 clinical trials, CVT-6883 was found to be safe, well tolerated, and suitable for once daily dosing. A second compound 20, 8-(5-pyrazolyl)-xanthine, has been nominated for development from Baraldi's group in conjunction with King Pharmaceuticals that has favorable A(2B) AdoR affinity and selectivity [K(i)(hA(2B)) = 5.5 nM; K(i)(hA(1)) > 1,000 nM; K(i)(hA(2A)) > 1,000; and K(i)(hA(3)) > 1,000 nM], and it has been demonstrated to be a functional antagonist. A third compound 32, a 2-aminopyrimidine, from the Almirall group has high A(2B) AdoR affinity and selectivity [K(i)(hA(2B)) = 17 nM; K(i)(hA(1)) > 1,000 nM; K(i)(hA(2A)) > 2,500; and K(i)(hA(3)) > 1,000 nM], and 32 has been moved into preclinical safety testing. Since three highly selective, high affinity A(2B) AdoR antagonists have been nominated for development with 10 (CVT-6883) being the furthest along in the development process, the role of the A(2B) AdoR in various disease states will soon be established.

Structural determinants of 5-HT2B receptor activation and biased agonism.

Project description:Serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine; 5-HT) receptors modulate a variety of physiological processes ranging from perception, cognition and emotion to vascular and smooth muscle contraction, platelet aggregation, gastrointestinal function and reproduction. Drugs that interact with 5-HT receptors effectively treat diseases as diverse as migraine headaches, depression and obesity. Here we present four structures of a prototypical serotonin receptor-the human 5-HT2B receptor-in complex with chemically and pharmacologically diverse drugs, including methysergide, methylergonovine, lisuride and LY266097. A detailed analysis of these structures complemented by comprehensive interrogation of signaling illuminated key structural determinants essential for activation. Additional structure-guided mutagenesis experiments revealed binding pocket residues that were essential for agonist-mediated biased signaling and β-arrestin2 translocation. Given the importance of 5-HT receptors for a large number of therapeutic indications, insights derived from these studies should accelerate the design of safer and more effective medications.

Design of fluorinated cyclopropane derivatives of 2-phenylcyclopropylmethylamine leading to identification of a selective serotonin 2C (5-HT2C) receptor agonist without 5-HT2B agonism.

Project description:A new series of fluorinated 5-HT2C agonists were designed and synthesized on the basis of our previous work on 2-phenylcyclopropylmethylamines as a potential approach for the treatment of central nervous system disorders. Key fluorinated cyclopropane moieties were constructed through transition metal catalyzed [2 + 1]-cycloaddition of aromatic vinyl fluorides, and the absolute stereochemistry of the representative compound (-)-21a was established. Functional activity measuring calcium flux at 5-HT2 receptors reveals high potency for compounds (+)-21a-d. In particular, (+)-21b had no detectable 5-HT2B agonism and displayed reasonable selectivity against 5-HT2A. Molecular docking studies were further performed to explain the compounds' possible binding poses to the 5-HT2C receptor.

Synthesis and evaluation of aporphine analogs containing C1 allyl isosteres at the h5-HT(2A) receptor.

Project description:A series of C1 aporphine analogs related to compound 5 and that contain substituted allylic, alkynyl, nitrile, ester and benzyl groups was synthesized and evaluated for affinity at h5HT2A and α1A receptors in functional activity assays that measure calcium release. The presence of branched allylic substituent groups diminished affinity for the h5HT2A receptor. Likewise, the alkynyl, nitrile and ester derivatives evaluated displayed lower 5-HT2A receptor affinity as compared to 5. Hydrophobic, steric and electronic effects impact the affinity of p-substituted benzyl derivatives 8i-8k but in different ways. High hydrophobicity and size favor 5-HT2A affinity whereas, high electronegativity disfavors 5-HT2A affinity. p-Bromobenzyl analog 8k was identified as a 5-HT2A receptor selective ligand, with the highest 5-HT2A receptor affinity of any aporphine known to date. Most of the other analogs were selective for the 5-HT2A versus the α1A receptor. ChemScore binding energies from docking studies correlated qualitatively with the observed trends in affinity for 8i-8k, although the binding energies were not well differentiated quantitatively.

5-HT1A and 5-HT2B receptor interaction and co-clustering regulate serotonergic neuron excitability.

Project description:Many psychiatric diseases have been associated with serotonin (5-HT) neuron dysfunction. The firing of 5-HT neurons is known to be under 5-HT1A receptor-mediated autoinhibition, but functional consequences of coexpressed receptors are unknown. Using co-immunoprecipitation, BRET, confocal, and super-resolution microscopy in hippocampal and 5-HT neurons, we present evidence that 5-HT1A and 5-HT2B receptors can form heterodimers and co-cluster at the plasma membrane of dendrites. Selective agonist stimulation of coexpressed 5-HT1A and 5-HT2B receptors prevents 5-HT1A receptor internalization and increases 5-HT2B receptor membrane clustering. Current clamp recordings of 5-HT neurons revealed that 5-HT1A receptor stimulation of acute slices from mice lacking 5-HT2B receptors in 5-HT neurons increased their firing activity trough Ca2+-activated potassium channel inhibition compared to 5-HT neurons from control mice. This work supports the hypothesis that the relative expression of 5-HT1A and 5-HT2B receptors tunes the neuronal excitability of serotonergic neurons through potassium channel regulation.

Transcriptome analysis of Enzalutamide-resistant C4-2B (C4-2B MDVR) cells treated with Indocin.

Project description:The overall goal of this study was to identify genes that were differentially-expressed in C4-2B MDVR cells treated with Indocin. C4-2B MDVR were either treated with Indocin (20 uM) or DMSO vehicle control for 3 days, followed by isolation of total cellular RNA. Transcriptome analysis was performed with RNA-Sequencing (RNA-Seq) in order to identify differentially-expressed genes (DEGs) induced by Indocin treatment.
