Structure of neprilysin in complex with the active metabolite of sacubitril.

ABSTRACT: Sacubitril is an ethyl ester prodrug of LBQ657, the active neprilysin (NEP) inhibitor, and a component of LCZ696 (sacubitril/valsartan). We report herein the three-dimensional structure of LBQ657 in complex with human NEP at 2?Å resolution. The crystal structure unravels the binding mode of the compound occupying the S1, S1' and S2' sub-pockets of the active site, consistent with a competitive inhibition mode. An induced fit conformational change upon binding of the P1'-biphenyl moiety of the inhibitor suggests an explanation for its selectivity against structurally homologous zinc metallopeptidases.

Sacubitril/Valsartan: Neprilysin Inhibition 5 Years After PARADIGM-HF.

Project description:Sacubitril/valsartan, an angiotensin receptor-neprilysin inhibitor (ARNI), has been shown to reduce the risk of cardiovascular death or heart failure hospitalization and improve symptoms among patients with chronic heart failure with reduced ejection fraction compared to enalapril, the gold standard angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor. In the 5 years since the publication of the results of PARADIGM-HF, further insight has been gained into integrating a neprilysin inhibitor into a comprehensive multidrug regimen, including a renin-angiotensin aldosterone system (RAS) blocker. This paper reviews the current understanding of the effects of sacubitril/valsartan and highlights expected developments over the next 5 years, including potential new indications for use. Additionally, a practical, evidence-based approach is provided to the clinical integration of sacubitril/valsartan among patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction.

Treatment of Pulmonary Hypertension With Angiotensin II Receptor Blocker and Neprilysin Inhibitor Sacubitril/Valsartan.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Angiotensin II has been implicated in maladaptive right ventricular (RV) hypertrophy and fibrosis associated with pulmonary hypertension (PH). Natriuretic peptides decrease RV afterload by promoting pulmonary vasodilation and inhibiting vascular remodeling but are degraded by neprilysin. We hypothesized that angiotensin receptor blocker and neprilysin inhibitor, sacubitril/valsartan (Sac/Val, LCZ696), will attenuate PH and improve RV function by targeting both pulmonary vascular and RV remodeling. METHODS:PH was induced in rats using the SU5416/hypoxia model (Su/Hx), followed by 6-week treatment with placebo, Sac/Val, or Val alone. There were 4 groups: CON-normoxic animals with placebo (n=18); PH-Su/Hx rats+placebo (n=34); PH+Sac/Val (N=24); and PH+Val (n=16). RESULTS:In animals with PH, treatment with Sac/Val but not Val resulted in significant reduction in RV pressure (mm?Hg: PH: 62±4, PH+Sac/Val: 46±5), hypertrophy (RV/LV+S: PH: 0.74±0.06, PH+Sac/Val: 0.46±0.06), collagen content (µg/50 µg protein: PH: 8.2±0.3, PH+Sac/Val: 6.4±0.4), pressures and improvement in RVs (mm/s: PH: 31.2±1.8, PH+Sac/Val: 43.1±3.6) compared with placebo. This was associated with reduced pulmonary vascular wall thickness, increased lung levels of ANP (atrial natriuretic peptide), BNP (brain-type natriuretic peptide), and cGMP, and decreased plasma endothelin-1 compared with PH alone. Also, PH+Sac/Val animals had altered expression of PKC isozymes in RV tissue compared with PH alone. CONCLUSIONS:Sac/Val reduces pulmonary pressures, vascular remodeling, as well as RV hypertrophy in a rat model of PH and may be appropriate for treatment of pulmonary hypertension and RV dysfunction.

Angiotensin Receptor-Neprilysin Inhibition (Sacubitril/Valsartan) Reduces Structural Arterial Stiffness in Middle-Aged Mice.

Project description:BackgroundIncreasing arterial stiffness is a prominent feature of the aging cardiovascular system. Arterial stiffening leads to fundamental alterations in central hemodynamics with widespread detrimental implications for organ function resulting in significant morbidity and death, and specific therapies to address the underlying age-related structural arterial remodeling remain elusive. The present study investigates the potential of the recently clinically available dual angiotensin receptor-neprilysin inhibitor (ARNI) sacubitril/valsartan (LCZ696) to counteract age-related arterial fibrotic remodeling and stiffening in 1-year-old mice.Methods and resultsTreatment of in 1-year-old mice with ARNI (sacubitril/valsartan), in contrast to angiotensin receptor blocker monotherapy (valsartan) and vehicle treatment (controls), significantly decreases structural aortic stiffness (as measured by in vivo pulse-wave velocity and ex vivo aortic pressure myography). This phenomenon appears, at least partly, independent of (indirect) blood pressure effects and may be related to a direct antifibrotic interference with aortic smooth muscle cell collagen production. Furthermore, we find aortic remodeling and destiffening due to ARNI treatment to be associated with improved parameters of cardiac diastolic function in aged mice.ConclusionsThis study provides preclinical mechanistic evidence indicating that ARNI-based interventions may counteract age-related arterial stiffening and may therefore be further investigated as a promising strategy to improve cardiovascular outcomes in the elderly.

The neprilysin pathway in heart failure: a review and guide on the use of sacubitril/valsartan.

Project description:Inhibition of neurohumoural pathways such as the renin angiotensin aldosterone and sympathetic nervous systems is central to the understanding and treatment of heart failure (HF). Conversely, until recently, potentially beneficial augmentation of neurohumoural systems such as the natriuretic peptides has had limited therapeutic success. Administration of synthetic natriuretic peptides has not improved outcomes in acute HF but modulation of the natriuretic system through inhibition of the enzyme that degrades natriuretic (and other vasoactive) peptides, neprilysin, has proven to be successful. After initial failures with neprilysin inhibition alone or dual neprilysin-angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibition, the Prospective comparison of angiotensin receptor neprilysin inhibitor (ARNI) with ACEI to Determine Impact on Global Mortality and morbidity in Heart Failure trial (PARADIGM-HF) trial demonstrated that morbidity and mortality can be improved with the angiotensin receptor blocker neprilysin inhibitor sacubitril/valsartan (formerly LCZ696). In comparison to the ACE inhibitor enalapril, sacubitril/valsartan reduced the occurrence of the primary end point (cardiovascular death or hospitalisation for HF) by 20% with a 16% reduction in all-cause mortality. These findings suggest that sacubitril/valsartan should replace an ACE inhibitor or angiotensin receptor blocker as the foundation of treatment of symptomatic patients (NYHA II-IV) with HF and a reduced ejection fraction. This review will explore the background to neprilysin inhibition in HF, the results of the PARADIGM-HF trial and offer guidance on how to use sacubitril/valsartan in clinical practice.

Dual Angiotensin Receptor-Neprilysin Inhibition With Sacubitril/Valsartan Attenuates Systolic Dysfunction in Experimental Doxorubicin-Induced Cardiotoxicity.

Project description:BackgroundDoxorubicin (DOX) induces cardiotoxicity in part by activation of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs). Sacubitril/valsartan (Sac/Val) exerts additive cardioprotective actions over renin-angiotensin-aldosterone inhibitors in preclinical models of myocardial infarction and in heart failure patients. We hypothesized that Sac/Val would be more cardioprotective than Val in a rodent model of progressive DOX-induced cardiotoxicity, and this benefit would be associated with modulation of MMP activation.ObjectivesWe sought to investigate the efficacy of Sac/Val for the treatment of anthracycline-induced cardiotoxicity.MethodsMale Wistar rats received DOX intraperitoneally (15 mg/kg cumulative) or saline over 3 weeks. Following the first treatment, control animals were gavaged daily with water (n = 25), while DOX-treated animals were gavaged daily with water (n = 25), Val (31 mg/kg; n = 25) or Sac/Val (68 mg/kg; n = 25) for either 4 or 6 weeks. Echocardiography was performed at baseline, and 4 and 6 weeks after DOX initiation. In addition, myocardial MMP activity was assessed with 99mTc-RP805, and cardiotoxicity severity was assessed by histology at these time points in a subgroup of animals.ResultsLeft ventricular ejection fraction decreased by 10% at 6 weeks in DOX and DOX + Val rats (both p < 0.05), while this reduction was attenuated in DOX + Sac/Val rats. MMP activity was increased at 6 weeks by 76% in DOX-alone rats, and tended to increase in DOX + Val rats (36%; p = 0.051) but was similar in DOX + Sac/Val rats as compared with time-matched control animals. Both therapies attenuated histological evidence of cellular toxicity and fibrosis (p < 0.05).ConclusionsSac/Val offers greater protection against left ventricular remodeling and dysfunction compared with standard angiotensin receptor blocker therapy in a rodent model of progressive DOX-induced cardiotoxicity.

<i>In silico</i> study of inhibitory capacity of sacubitril/valsartan toward neprilysin and angiotensin receptor.

Project description:Heart failure (HF) is a life-threatening condition that occurs when the heart cannot pump enough blood and oxygen to meet the body's needs. It affects mostly the elderly, commonly from the male population, especially those with obesity, diabetes, or some other chronic condition. It can be treated with different medications, and promising results were shown by a relatively new medicament called Entresto. Results obtained from molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulations to examine the inhibitory capacity of Entresto are presented in this study. Parameters obtained by the molecular docking simulations show that both parts of Entresto (sacubitril (SAC) and valsartan (VAL)) interact with targeted proteins, and inhibit their physiological function. Simulations of molecular dynamics revealed some interesting inhibitory patterns. SAC was discovered to produce structural alterations in neprilysin by binding to it, reducing neprilysin's physiological activity. In addition to blocking the active site, SAC binding causes the enzyme's structure to become less compact over time, causing changes in its biochemical characteristics and preventing the enzyme from performing its biological function. Similar to SAC, VAL also causes deviations in the structure of angiotensin receptors. The angiotensin receptor GPCR (G-protein-coupled receptors) is immersed in the lipid bilayer, and changes in the tertiary structure are only visible through RMSD and RMSF, not by examining R g. In this regard, MD simulations validated the results of molecular docking simulations, demonstrating that both SAC and VAL had inhibitory potential towards the neprilysin and angiotensin receptors, respectively.

Active site mutations change the cleavage specificity of neprilysin.

Project description:Neprilysin (NEP), a member of the M13 subgroup of the zinc-dependent endopeptidase family is a membrane bound peptidase capable of cleaving a variety of physiological peptides. We have generated a series of neprilysin variants containing mutations at either one of two active site residues, Phe(563) and Ser(546). Among the mutants studied in detail we observed changes in their activity towards leucine(5)-enkephalin, insulin B chain, and amyloid β(1-40). For example, NEP(F563I) displayed an increase in preference towards cleaving leucine(5)-enkephalin relative to insulin B chain, while mutant NEP(S546E) was less discriminating than neprilysin. Mutants NEP(F563L) and NEP(S546E) exhibit different cleavage site preferences than neprilysin with insulin B chain and amyloid ß(1-40) as substrates. These data indicate that it is possible to alter the cleavage site specificity of neprilysin opening the way for the development of substrate specific or substrate exclusive forms of the enzyme with enhanced therapeutic potential.

Circulating neprilysin hypothesis: A new opportunity for sacubitril/valsartan in patients with heart failure and preserved ejection fraction?

Project description:BackgroundCirculating Neprilysin (sNEP) has emerged as a potential prognostic biomarker in heart failure (HF). In PARAGON-HF benefit of sacubitril/valsartan was only observed in patients with left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≤57%. We aimed to assess the prognostic value of sNEP in outpatients with HF and LVEF >57%, in comparison with patients with LVEF ≤57%.MethodsConsecutive HF outpatients were included from May-2006 to February-2016. The primary endpoint was the composite of all-cause death or HF hospitalization and the main secondary endpoint was the composite of cardiovascular death or HF hospitalization. For the later competing risk methods were used.ResultssNEP was measured in 1428 patients (age 67.7±12.7, 70.3% men, LVEF 35.8% ±14), 144 of which had a LVEF >57%. sNEP levels did not significantly differ between LVEF groups (p = 0.31). During a mean follow-up of 6±3.9 years, the primary endpoint occurred in 979 patients and the secondary composite endpoint in 714 (in 111 and 84 of the 144 patients with LVEF >57%, respectively). sNEP was significantly associated with both composite endpoints. Age- and sex- adjusted Cox regression analyses showed higher hazard ratios for sNEP in patients with LVEF >57%, both for the primary (HR 1.37 [1.16-1.61] vs. 1.04 [0.97-1.11]) and the secondary (HR 1.38 [1.21-1.55] vs. 1.11 [1.04-1.18]) composite endpoints.ConclusionssNEP prognostic value in patients with HF and LVEF >57% outperforms that observed in patients with lower LVEF. Precision medicine using sNEP may identify HF patients with preserved LVEF that may benefit from treatment with sacubitril/valsartan.

Prevention against renal damage in rats with subtotal nephrectomy by sacubitril/valsartan (LCZ696), a dual-acting angiotensin receptor-neprilysin inhibitor.

Project description:Although patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) are at increased risk for end-stage renal disease and cardiovascular events, adequate drug therapies for preventing the deterioration of these conditions are still not established. This study was undertaken to evaluate a preventive effect of an angiotensin receptor-neprilysin inhibitor sacubitril/valsartan (LCZ696), which is converted to sacubitril and valsartan in the body, against the progression of renal disease in rats with subtotal nephrectomy, an animal model of human CKD. Mean survival time after subtotal nephrectomy was about 100 days in Wistar rats with vehicle. LCZ696-(30 mg/kg) and valsartan-(15 mg/kg) prolonged the survival of these animals, and the effect of LCZ696 on survival was significantly greater than that of valsartan. Renoprotective effects of LCZ696 judged by serum creatinine and urinary protein excretions were larger than those of valsartan. Cardioprotective effects judged by cardiac left ventricular mass, fractional shortening, and fibrosis of LCZ696 and valsartan were not detected under the present condition. Thus, the renoprotective effect of LCZ696 was stronger than that of valsartan in rats with subtotal nephrectomy. This study provides the idea that, compared to valsartan, LCZ696 is more effective for the treatment of human CKD.

The structure of anticapsin, a new biologically active metabolite of Streptomyces griseoplanus.

Project description:1. Physical and analytical data obtained on crystalline anticapsin indicated the empirical formula C(9)H(13)NO(4). Spectral data (u.v., i.r. and proton magnetic resonance) and formation of l-tyrosine on hydrolysis revealed the functionalities and carbon skeleton of the new epoxy keto amino acid. 2. The optical properties of anticapsin (optical rotatory dispersion and circular dichroism) permitted assignment of absolute configuration to the new metabolite. 3. Treatment of anticapsin with hot methanolic hydrochloric acid followed by acetylation gave C(18)H(19)NO(5), the alpha-alkoxycyclohexenone derivative. Analysis of the nuclear-magnetic-resonance and mass spectra of the latter allowed its structure to be determined and confirmed the assigned structure of anticapsin.
