Synthesis and Characterization of High-Affinity 4,4-Difluoro-4-bora-3a,4a-diaza-s-indacene-Labeled Fluorescent Ligands for Human β-Adrenoceptors
摘要:
The growing practice of exploiting noninvasive fluorescence-based techniques to study G protein-coupled receptor pharmacology at the single cell and single molecule level demands the availability of high-quality fluorescent ligands. To this end, this study evaluated a new series of red-emitting ligands for the human beta-adrenoceptor family. Upon the basis of the orthosteric ligands propranolol, alprenolol, and pindolol, the synthesized linker-modified congeners were coupled to the commercially available fluorophore BODIPY 630/650-X. This yielded high-affinity beta-adrenoceptor fluorescent ligands for both the propranolol and alprenolol derivatives; however, the pindolol-based products displayed lower affinity. A fluorescent diethylene glycol linked propranolol derivative (18a) had the highest affinity (log K-D of -9.53 and -8.46 as an antagonist of functional beta 2- and beta 1-mediated responses, respectively). Imaging studies with this compound further confirmed that it can be employed to selectively label the human beta 2-adrenoceptor in single living cells, with receptor-associated binding prevented by preincubation with the nonfluorescent beta 2-selective antagonist 3-(isopropylamino)-1-[(7-methyl-4-indanyl)oxy]-butan-2-ol (ICI 118551) (J. Cardiovasc. Pharmacol. 1983, 5,430-437.)

Provided herein are compositions and methods for photoaffinity labeling of molecular targets. In particular, probes that specifically interact with cellular targets based on their affinity and are then covalently linked to the cellular target via a photoreactive group (PRG) on the probe.
