Novel selective thiadiazine DYRK1A inhibitor lead scaffold with human pancreatic β-cell proliferation activity
摘要:
The Dual-Specificity Tyrosine Phosphorylation-Regulated Kinase 1A (DYRK1A) is an enzyme that has been implicated as an important drug target in various therapeutic areas, including neurological disorders (Down syndrome, Alzheimer's disease), oncology, and diabetes (pancreatic beta-cell expansion). Current small molecule DYRK1A inhibitors are ATP-competitive inhibitors that bind to the kinase in an active conformation. As a result, these inhibitors are promiscuous, resulting in pharmacological side effects that limit their therapeutic applications. None are in clinical trials at this time. In order to identify a new DYRK1A inhibitor scaffold, we constructed a homology model of DYRK1A in an inactive, DFG-out conformation. Virtual screening of 2.2 million lead-like compounds from the ZINC database, followed by in vitro testing of selected 68 compounds revealed 8 hits representing 5 different chemical classes. We chose to focus on one of the hits from the computational screen, thiadiazine I which was found to inhibit DYRK1A with IC50 of 9.41 mu m (K-d = 7.3 mu M). Optimization of the hit compound 1, using structure-activity relationship (SAR) analysis and in vitro testing led to the identification of potent thiadiazine analogs with significantly improved binding as compared to the initial hit (K-d = 71-185 nM). Compound 3-5 induced human beta-cell proliferation at 5 mu M while showing selectivity for DYRK1A over DYRK1B and DYRK2 at 10 mu M. This newly developed DYRK1A inhibitor scaffold with unique kinase selectivity profiles has potential to be further optimized as novel therapeutics for diabetes.

A lead compound which had sub-micromolar affinity for the rabbit NK1 receptor but negligible affinity for rat NK1 receptors, 3a, was discovered by directed screening. 2-Substitution in the ring of the benzylthiourea substituent in the initial lead was found to be important, and halogens (Cl, Br) in this position were found to improve affinity for the human receptor. The activity of a series of 2-halo-substituted benzylthioureas was then optimized by modification of the proline diphenylmethyl amide, guided by a simple conceptual model based on structural overlay between these early antagonists and NK1 selective peptides. In this way, aromatic amino acid amides were identified which had improved affinity with respect to the starting diphenylmethyl (DPM) amides. The first sub-nanomolar ligand for the human NK1 receptor which arose from this series, 4af, combined a 2-chlorobenzylthiourea unit with a 2-naphthylalanine amide. Contemporaneously it was discovered that the benzylthiourea unit could be simplified to a phenylthiourea providing that an appropriate 2-substituent was also incorporated. Combination of these two series gave 2-NO2 phenylthiourea analogues which led directly to the analogous urea, 5f(2-nitrophenylcarbamoyl-(S)-prolyl-(S)-3-(2-naphthyl)alanyl-N-benzyl-N-methylamide, SDZ NKT 343), a highly potent ligand for the human NK1 receptor (K-i = 0.16 nM). In addition to its high in vitro potency, 5f proved to be a potent orally active analgesic in guinea pig models of chronic inflammatory and neuropathic pain. The nature of the 2-aryl substituent was found to be critical for oral activity in this series. Clinical evaluation of 5f as a novel analgesic agent is currently underway.
