Discovery of novel PTP1B inhibitors with antihyperglycemic activity.

ABSTRACT: AIM: To discover and optimize a series of novel PTP1B inhibitors containing a thiazolidinone-substituted biphenyl scaffold and to further evaluate the inhibitory effects of these compounds in vitro and in vivo. METHODS: A total of 36 thiazolidinone substituted biphenyl scaffold derivatives were prepared. An in vitro biological evaluation was done by Enzyme-based assay. The in vivo efficacy of 7Fb as an antihyperglycemic agent was evaluated in a BKS db/db diabetic mouse model with a dose of 50 mg.kg(-1).d(-1) for 4 weeks. RESULTS: The in vitro biological evaluation showed that compounds 7Fb and 7Fc could increase the insulin-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of IRbeta in CHO/hIR cells. In in vivo experiments, compound 7Fb significantly lowered the postprandial blood glucose, from 29.4+/-1.2 mmol/L with the vehicle to 24.7+/-0.6 mmol/L (P<0.01), and the fasting blood glucose from 27.3+/-1.5 mmol/L with the vehicle to 23.6+/-1.2 mmol/L (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: A novel series of compounds were discovered to be PTP1B inhibitors. Among them, compound 7Fb significantly lowered the postprandial and fasting glucose levels, and the blood glucose level declined more rapidly than in metformin-treated mice. Thus, 7Fb may be a potential lead compound for developing new agents for the treatment of type II diabetes.

Discovery of Novel PTP1B Inhibitors Derived from the BH3 Domain of Proapoptotic Bcl-2 Proteins with Antidiabetic Potency.

Project description:BH3 peptide analogues are generally believed to exhibit great potency as cancer therapeutics via targeting antiapoptotic Bcl-2 proteins. Here, we describe the synthesis and identification of a new class of palmitoylated peptide BH3 analogues derived from the core region (h1-h4) of BH3 domains of proapoptotic Bcl-2 proteins and as alternative PTP1B inhibitors with antidiabetic potency in vitro and in vivo. PTP1B inhibitors are attractive for treatment of type 2 diabetes. We design the analogues using a simple lipidation approach and discovered novel lead analogues with promising antidiabetic potency in vitro and in vivo. The results presented here expanded the alternative target and function for the BH3 peptide analogues from one member Bim to other members of the proapoptotic Bcl-2 proteins and emphasize their therapeutic potential in T2DM. Furthermore, our findings may provide new proof of the regulatory function of Bcl-2 family proteins in mitochondrial nutrient and energy metabolism.

Discovery of Diphenylacetamides as CXCR7 Inhibitors with Novel β-Arrestin Antagonist Activity.

Project description:The atypical chemokine receptor CXCR7 has been studied in various disease settings including immunological diseases and heart disease. Efforts to elucidate the role of CXCR7 have been limited by the lack of suitable chemical tools with a range of pharmacological profiles. A high-throughput screen was conducted to discover novel chemical matter with the potential to modulate CXCR7 receptor activity. This led to the identification of a series of diphenylacetamides confirmed in a CXCL12 competition assay indicating receptor binding. Further evaluation of this series revealed a lack of activity in the functional assay measuring β-arrestin recruitment. The most potent representative, compound 10 (K i = 597 nM), was determined to be an antagonist in the β-arrestin assay (IC50 = 622 nM). To our knowledge, this is the first reported small molecule β-arrestin antagonist for CXCR7, useful as an in vitro chemical tool to elucidate the effects of CXCL12 displacement with β-arrestin antagonism in models for diseases such as cardiac injury and suitable as starting point for hit optimization directed toward an in vivo tool compound for studying CXCR7 receptor pharmacology.

Molecular docking and virtual screening for novel protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B) inhibitors.

Project description:Protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B) functions as major negative regulator of insulin and leptin signaling pathways. In view of this, PTP1B is an significant target for drug development against cancer, diabetes and obesity. The aim of the current study is to identify PTP1B inhibitors by means of virtual screening with docking. 523,366 molecules from ZINC database have been screened and based on DOCK grid scores and hydrogen bonding interactions five new potential inhibitors were identified. ZINC12502589, ZINC13213457, ZINC25721858, ZINC31392733 and ZINC04096400 were identified as potential lead molecules for inhibition of PTP1B. The identified molecules were subjected to Lipinski's rule of five parameters and found that they did not violate any rule. More specific analysis of pharmacological parameters may be scrutinized through a complete ADME/Tox evaluation. Pharma algorithm was used to Calculate ADME-Tox profiles for such molecules. In general, all the molecules presented advantages and as well as disadvantages when compared to each other. No marked difference in health effects and toxicity profiles were observed among these molecules.

PTP1B Inhibitors from the Entomogenous Fungi Isaria fumosorosea.

Project description:Protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B) is implicated as a negative regulator of insulin receptor (IR) signaling and a potential drug target for the treatment of type II diabetes and other associated metabolic syndromes. Thus, small molecule inhibitors of PTP1B can be considered as an attractive approach for the design of new therapeutic agents of type II diabetes and cancer diseases. In a continuing search for new PTP1B inhibitors, a new tetramic acid possessing a rare pyrrolidinedione skeleton named fumosorinone A (1), together with five known ones 2-6 were isolated from the entomogenous fungus Isaria fumosorosea. The structures of 2-6 were elucidated by extensive spectroscopic analysis. Fumosorinone A (1) and beauvericin (6) showed significant PTP1B inhibitory activity with IC50 value of 3.24 ?M and 0.59 ?M.

Discovery of Novel Haloalkane Dehalogenase Inhibitors.

Project description:Haloalkane dehalogenases (HLDs) have recently been discovered in a number of bacteria, including symbionts and pathogens of both plants and humans. However, the biological roles of HLDs in these organisms are unclear. The development of efficient HLD inhibitors serving as molecular probes to explore their function would represent an important step toward a better understanding of these interesting enzymes. Here we report the identification of inhibitors for this enzyme family using two different approaches. The first builds on the structures of the enzymes' known substrates and led to the discovery of less potent nonspecific HLD inhibitors. The second approach involved the virtual screening of 150,000 potential inhibitors against the crystal structure of an HLD from the human pathogen Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv. The best inhibitor exhibited high specificity for the target structure, with an inhibition constant of 3 ?M and a molecular architecture that clearly differs from those of all known HLD substrates. The new inhibitors will be used to study the natural functions of HLDs in bacteria, to probe their mechanisms, and to achieve their stabilization.

Identification of Bidentate Salicylic Acid Inhibitors of PTP1B.

Project description:PTP1B is a master regulator in the insulin and leptin metabolic pathways. Hyper-activated PTP1B results in insulin resistance and is viewed as a key factor in the onset of type II diabetes and obesity. Moreover, inhibition of PTP1B expression in cancer cells dramatically inhibits cell growth in vitro and in vivo. Herein, we report the computationally guided optimization of a salicylic acid-based PTP1B inhibitor 6, identifying new and more potent bidentate PTP1B inhibitors, such as 20h, which exhibited a > 4-fold improvement in activity. In CHO-IR cells, 20f, 20h, and 20j suppressed PTP1B activity and restored insulin receptor phosphorylation levels. Notably, 20f, which displayed a 5-fold selectivity for PTP1B over the closely related PTP? protein, showed no inhibition of PTP-LAR, PRL2 A/S, MKPX, or papain. Finally, 20i and 20j displayed nanomolar inhibition of PTP?, representing interesting lead compounds for further investigation.

3D Pharmacophore-Based Discovery of Novel K<sub>V</sub>10.1 Inhibitors with Antiproliferative Activity.

Project description:(1) Background: The voltage-gated potassium channel KV10.1 (Eag1) is considered a near- universal tumour marker and represents a promising new target for the discovery of novel anticancer drugs. (2) Methods: We utilized the ligand-based drug discovery methodology using 3D pharmacophore modelling and medicinal chemistry approaches to prepare a novel structural class of KV10.1 inhibitors. Whole-cell patch clamp experiments were used to investigate potency, selectivity, kinetics and mode of inhibition. Anticancer activity was determined using 2D and 3D cell-based models. (3) Results: The virtual screening hit compound ZVS-08 discovered by 3D pharmacophore modelling exhibited an IC50 value of 3.70 µM against KV10.1 and inhibited the channel in a voltage-dependent manner consistent with the action of a gating modifier. Structural optimization resulted in the most potent KV10.1 inhibitor of the series with an IC50 value of 740 nM, which was potent on the MCF-7 cell line expressing high KV10.1 levels and low hERG levels, induced significant apoptosis in tumour spheroids of Colo-357 cells and was not mutagenic. (4) Conclusions: Computational ligand-based drug design methods can be successful in the discovery of new potent KV10.1 inhibitors. The main problem in the field of KV10.1 inhibitors remains selectivity against the hERG channel, which needs to be addressed in the future also with target-based drug design methods.

Discovery of Tricyclic Pyranochromenone as Novel Bruton's Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors with in Vivo Antirheumatic Activity.

Project description:Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) is an attractive target for treating patients with B cell malignancies and autoimmune diseases. Many BTK inhibitors have been identified; however, like other kinase inhibitors, they lack diversity in their core structures. Therefore, it is important to secure a novel scaffold that occupies the adenine-binding site of BTK. We screened an in-house library of natural products and their analogs via a biochemical assay to identify a novel scaffold for targeting BTK. A pyranochromenone scaffold, derived from a natural active component decursin, was found to be effective at targeting BTK and was selected for further optimization. A series of pyranochromenone analogs was synthesized through the modification of pyranochromenone at the C7 position. Pyranochromenone compounds with an electrophilic warhead exhibited promising BTK inhibitory activity, with IC50 values in the range of 0.5-0.9 µM. A docking study of the representative compound 8 provided a reasonable explanation for compound activity. Compound 8 demonstrated good selectivity over other associated kinases and decreased the production of proinflammatory cytokines in THP cells. Moreover, compound 8 presented significant in vivo efficacy in a murine model of collagen-induced arthritis.
