Triazolopyrimidine and triazolopyridine scaffolds as TDP2 inhibitors.

ABSTRACT: Tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase 2 (TDP2) repairs topoisomerase II (TOP2) mediated DNA damages and causes cellular resistance to clinically used TOP2 poisons. Inhibiting TDP2 can potentially sensitize cancer cells toward TOP2 poisons. Commercial compound P10A10, to which the structure was assigned as 7-phenyl triazolopyrimidine analogue 6a, was previously identified as a TDP2 inhibitor hit in our virtual and fluorescence-based biochemical screening campaign. We report herein that the hit validation through resynthesis and structure elucidation revealed the correct structure of P10A10 (Chembridge ID 7236827) to be the 5-phenyl triazolopyrimidine regioisomer 7a. Subsequent structure-activity relationship (SAR) via the synthesis of a total of 47 analogues of both the 5-phenyl triazolopyrimidine scaffold (7) and its bioisosteric triazolopyridine scaffold (17) identified four derivatives (7a, 17a, 17e, and 17z) with significant TDP2 inhibition (IC50?

Potent Triazolopyridine Myeloperoxidase Inhibitors.

Project description:Myeloperoxidase (MPO) generates reactive oxygen species that potentially contribute to many chronic inflammatory diseases. A recently reported triazolopyrimidine MPO inhibitor was optimized to improve acid stability and remove methyl guanine methyl transferase (MGMT) activity. Multiple synthetic routes were explored that allowed rapid optimization of a key benzyl ether side chain. Crystal structures of inhibitors bound to the MPO active site demonstrated alternate binding modes and guided rational design of MPO inhibitors. Thioether 36 showed significant inhibition of MPO activity in an acute mouse inflammation model after oral dosing.

Novel deazaflavin tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase 2 (TDP2) inhibitors.

Project description:Tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase 2 (TDP2) is a DNA repair enzyme that removes 5'-phosphotyrosyl blockages resulting from topoisomerase II (TOP2)-DNA cleavage complexes trapped by TOP2 inhibitors. TDP2 is a logical target for the development of therapeutics to complement existing treatments based on inhibition of TOP2. There is, however, no TDP2 inhibitor in clinical development at present. Of the reported TDP2 inhibitors, the deazaflavins are the most promising chemical class centered around the lead compound SV-5-153. Recently we reported new subtypes derived within the deazaflavin family with improved membrane permeability properties. In this work we characterize two representative analogues from two new deazaflavin subtypes based on their biochemical TDP2 inhibitory potency and drug-likeness. We demonstrate that the ZW-1288 derivative represents a promising direction for the development of deazaflavins as therapeutic agents. ZW-1288 exhibits potent inhibitory activity at low nanomolar concentrations against recombinant and cellular human TDP2 with profile similar to that of the parent analog SV-5-153 based on high resistance against murine TDP2 and human TDP2 mutated at residue L313H. While expressing weak cytotoxicity on its own, ZW-1288 potentiates the clinical TOP2 inhibitors etoposide (ETP) and mitoxantrone in human prostate DU145 and CCRF-CEM leukemia and chicken lymphoma DT40 cells while not impacting the activity of the topoisomerase I (TOP1) inhibitor camptothecin or the PARP inhibitor olaparib. ZW-1288 increases the uptake of ETP to a lesser extent than SV-5-153 and remained active in TDP2 knockout cells indicating that the deazaflavin TDP2 inhibitors have additional cellular effects that will have to be taken into account for their further development as TDP2 inhibitors.

Deazaflavin Inhibitors of Tyrosyl-DNA Phosphodiesterase 2 (TDP2) Specific for the Human Enzyme and Active against Cellular TDP2.

Project description:Tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase 2 repairs irreversible topoisomerase II-mediated cleavage complexes generated by anticancer topoisomerase-targeted drugs and processes replication intermediates for picornaviruses (VPg unlinkase) and hepatitis B virus. There is currently no TDP2 inhibitor in clinical development. Here, we report a series of deazaflavin derivatives that selectively inhibit the human TDP2 enzyme in a competitive manner both with recombinant and native TDP2. We show that mouse, fish, and C. elegans TDP2 enzymes are highly resistant to the drugs and that key protein residues are responsible for drug resistance. Among them, human residues L313 and T296 confer high resistance when mutated to their mouse counterparts. Moreover, deazaflavin derivatives show potent synergy in combination with the topoisomerase II inhibitor etoposide in human prostate cancer DU145 cells and TDP2-dependent synergy in TK6 human lymphoblast and avian DT40 cells. Deazaflavin derivatives represent the first suitable platform for the development of potent and selective TDP2 inhibitors.

Isoquinoline-1,3-diones as Selective Inhibitors of Tyrosyl DNA Phosphodiesterase II (TDP2).

Project description:Tyrosyl DNA phosphodiesterase II (TDP2) is a recently discovered enzyme that specifically repairs DNA damages induced by topoisomerase II (Top2) poisons and causes resistance to these drugs. Inhibiting TDP2 is expected to enhance the efficacy of clinically important Top2-targeting anticancer drugs. However, TDP2 as a therapeutic target remains poorly understood. We report herein the discovery of isoquinoline-1,3-dione as a viable chemotype for selectively inhibiting TDP2. The initial hit compound 43 was identified by screening our in-house collection of synthetic compounds. Further structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies identified numerous analogues inhibiting TDP2 in low micromolar range without appreciable inhibition against the homologous TDP1 at the highest testing concentration (111 μM). The best compound 64 inhibited recombinant TDP2 with an IC50 of 1.9 μM. The discovery of this chemotype may provide a platform toward understanding TDP2 as a drug target.

Fluorine modulates species selectivity in the triazolopyrimidine class of Plasmodium falciparum dihydroorotate dehydrogenase inhibitors.

Project description:Malaria is one of the most serious global infectious diseases. The pyrimidine biosynthetic enzyme Plasmodium falciparum dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (PfDHODH) is an important target for antimalarial chemotherapy. We describe a detailed analysis of protein-ligand interactions between DHODH and a triazolopyrimidine-based inhibitor series to explore the effects of fluorine on affinity and species selectivity. We show that increasing fluorination dramatically increases binding to mammalian DHODHs, leading to a loss of species selectivity. Triazolopyrimidines bind Plasmodium and mammalian DHODHs in overlapping but distinct binding sites. Key hydrogen-bond and stacking interactions underlying strong binding to PfDHODH are absent in the mammalian enzymes. Increasing fluorine substitution leads to an increase in the entropic contribution to binding, suggesting that strong binding to mammalian DHODH is a consequence of an enhanced hydrophobic effect upon binding to an apolar pocket. We conclude that hydrophobic interactions between fluorine and hydrocarbons provide significant binding energy to protein-ligand interactions. Our studies define the requirements for species-selective binding to PfDHODH and show that the triazolopyrimidine scaffold can alternatively be tuned to inhibit human DHODH, an important target for autoimmune diseases.

Triazolopyrimidine herbicides are potent inhibitors of Aspergillus fumigatus acetohydroxyacid synthase and potential antifungal drug leads.

Project description:Aspergillus fumigatus is a fungal pathogen whose effects can be debilitating and potentially fatal in immunocompromised patients. Current drug treatment options for this infectious disease are limited to just a few choices (e.g. voriconazole and amphotericin B) and these themselves have limitations due to potentially adverse side effects. Furthermore, the likelihood of the development of resistance to these current drugs is ever present. Thus, new treatment options are needed for this infection. A new potential antifungal drug target is acetohydroxyacid synthase (AHAS; EC 2.2.1.6), the first enzyme in the branched chain amino acid biosynthesis pathway, and a target for many commercial herbicides. In this study, we have expressed, purified and characterised the catalytic subunit of AHAS from A. fumigatus and determined the inhibition constants for several known herbicides. The most potent of these, penoxsulam and metosulam, have Ki values of 1.8 ± 0.9 nM and 1.4 ± 0.2 nM, respectively. Molecular modelling shows that these compounds are likely to bind into the herbicide binding pocket in a mode similar to Candida albicans AHAS. We have also shown that these two compounds inhibit A. fumigatus growth at a concentration of 25 µg/mL. Thus, AHAS inhibitors are promising leads for the development of new anti-aspergillosis therapeutics.

Synthesis and structure-activity relationship of furoquinolinediones as inhibitors of Tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase 2 (TDP2).

Project description:Tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase 2 (TDP2) is a recently discovered enzyme specifically repairing topoisomerase II (TOP2)-mediated DNA damage. It has been shown that inhibition of TDP2 synergize with TOP2 inhibitors. Herein, we report the discovery of the furoquinolinedione chemotype as a suitable skeleton for the development of selective TDP2 inhibitors. Compound 1 was identified as a TDP2 inhibitor as a result of screening our in-house compound library for compounds selective for TDP2 vs. TDP1. Further SAR studies provide several selective TDP2 inhibitors at low-micromolar range. The most potent compound 74 shows inhibitory activity with IC50 of 1.9 and 2.1??M against recombinant TDP2 and TDP2 in whole cell extracts (WCE), respectively.

The synthesis of furoquinolinedione and isoxazoloquinolinedione derivatives as selective Tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase 2 (TDP2) inhibitors.

Project description:Based on our previous study on the development of the furoquinolinedione and isoxazoloquinolinedione TDP2 inhibitors, the further structure-activity relationship (SAR) was studied in this work. A series of furoquinolinedione and isoxazoloquinolinedione derivatives were synthesized and tested for enzyme inhibitions. Enzyme-based assays indicated that isoxazoloquinolinedione derivatives selectively showed high TDP2 inhibitory activity at sub-micromolar range, as well as furoquinolinedione derivatives at low micromolar range. The most potent 3-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)isoxazolo[4,5-g]quinoline-4,9-dione (70) showed TDP2 inhibitory activity with IC50 of 0.46 ± 0.15 μM. This work will facilitate future efforts for the discovery of isoxazoloquinolinedione TDP2 selective inhibitors.

Triazolopyrimidine-based dihydroorotate dehydrogenase inhibitors with potent and selective activity against the malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum.

Project description:A Plasmodium falciparum dihydroorotate dehydrogenase ( PfDHODH) inhibitor that is potent ( KI = 15 nM) and species-selective (>5000-fold over the human enzyme) was identified by high-throughput screening. The substituted triazolopyrimidine and its structural analogues were produced by an inexpensive three-step synthesis, and the series showed good association between PfDHODH inhibition and parasite toxicity. This study has identified the first nanomolar PfDHODH inhibitor with potent antimalarial activity in whole cells (EC50 = 79 nM).

New fluorescence-based high-throughput screening assay for small molecule inhibitors of tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase 2 (TDP2).

Project description:Tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase 2 (TDP2) repairs topoisomerase II (TOP2) mediated DNA damages and causes resistance to TOP2-targeted cancer therapy. Inhibiting TDP2 could sensitize cancer cells toward TOP2 inhibitors. However, potent TDP2 inhibitors with favorable physicochemical properties are not yet reported. Therefore, there is a need to search for novel molecular scaffolds capable of inhibiting TDP2. We report herein a new simple, robust, homogenous mix-and-read fluorescence biochemical assay based using humanized zebrafish TDP2 (14M_zTDP2), which provides biochemical and molecular structure basis for TDP2 inhibitor discovery. The assay was validated by screening a preselected library of 1600 compounds (Z' ≥ 0.72) in a 384-well format, and by running in parallel gel-based assays with fluorescent DNA substrates. This library was curated via virtual high throughput screening (vHTS) of 460,000 compounds from Chembridge Library, using the crystal structure of the novel surrogate protein 14M_zTDP2. From this primary screening, we selected the best 32 compounds (2% of the library) to further assess their TDP2 inhibition potential, leading to the IC50 determination of 10 compounds. Based on the dose-response curve profile, pan-assay interference compounds (PAINS) structure identification, physicochemical properties and efficiency parameters, two hit compounds, 11a and 19a, were tested using a novel secondary fluorescence gel-based assay. Preliminary structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies identified guanidine derivative 12a as an improved hit with a 6.4-fold increase in potency over the original HTS hit 11a. This study highlights the importance of the development of combination approaches (biochemistry, crystallography and high throughput screening) for the discovery of TDP2 inhibitors.
