Inhibition of the histone demethylase JMJD2E by 3-substituted pyridine 2,4-dicarboxylates.

ABSTRACT: Based on structural analysis of the human 2-oxoglutarate (2OG) dependent JMJD2 histone N(?)-methyl lysyl demethylase family, 3-substituted pyridine 2,4-dicarboxylic acids were identified as potential inhibitors with possible selectivity over other human 2OG oxygenases. Microwave-assisted palladium-catalysed cross coupling methodology was developed to install a diverse set of substituents on the sterically demanding C-3 position of a pyridine 2,4-dicarboxylate scaffold. The subsequently prepared di-acids were tested for in vitro inhibition of the histone demethylase JMJD2E and another human 2OG oxygenase, prolyl-hydroxylase domain isoform 2 (PHD2, EGLN1). A subset of substitution patterns yielded inhibitors with selectivity for JMJD2E over PHD2, demonstrating that structure-based inhibitor design can enable selective inhibition of histone demethylases over related human 2OG oxygenases.

Project description:ObjectiveAberrant activity of androgen receptor (AR) is the primary cause underlying development and progression of prostate cancer (PCa) and castration-resistant PCa (CRPC). Androgen signaling regulates gene transcription and lipid metabolism, facilitating tumor growth and therapy resistance in early and advanced PCa. Although direct AR signaling inhibitors exist, AR expression and function can also be epigenetically regulated. Specifically, lysine (K)-specific demethylases (KDMs), which are often overexpressed in PCa and CRPC phenotypes, regulate the AR transcriptional program.MethodsWe investigated LSD1/UTX inhibition, two KDMs, in PCa and CRPC using a multi-omics approach. We first performed a mitochondrial stress test to evaluate respiratory capacity after treatment with MC3324, a dual KDM-inhibitor, and then carried out lipidomic, proteomic, and metabolic analyses. We also investigated mechanical cellular properties with acoustic force spectroscopy.ResultsMC3324 induced a global increase in H3K4me2 and H3K27me3 accompanied by significant growth arrest and apoptosis in androgen-responsive and -unresponsive PCa systems. LSD1/UTX inhibition downregulated AR at both transcriptional and non-transcriptional level, showing cancer selectivity, indicating its potential use in resistance to androgen deprivation therapy. Since MC3324 impaired metabolic activity, by modifying the protein and lipid content in PCa and CRPC cell lines. Epigenetic inhibition of LSD1/UTX disrupted mitochondrial ATP production and mediated lipid plasticity, which affected the phosphocholine class, an important structural element for the cell membrane in PCa and CRPC associated with changes in physical and mechanical properties of cancer cells.ConclusionsOur data suggest a network in which epigenetics, hormone signaling, metabolite availability, lipid content, and mechano-metabolic process are closely related. This network may be able to identify additional hotspots for pharmacological intervention and underscores the key role of KDM-mediated epigenetic modulation in PCa and CRPC.
